No that's just it the only thing I did was start using a SD card I even took apps off of the phone all I have on the phone is TubeMate and the MP3 converter and Google chat and I used to have Hangouts WhatsApp Facebook and Twitter on here and I had more storage I don't know what's up I just thought I would ask to see if somebody might know Samsung doesn't know . I'm not very technological but you know something it's something to do with the dadgum SIM card and even if I take it out I still don't get my storage back thanks for responding hope you have a wonderful day

If you open the Android Settings app, how much storage space is shown (available and used) without the SD card?
