I formatted it first via the phone first. Its creates various folders when it does so I would imagine you should.

how do you format it in the phone? i cant seem to find the option, and the manual shows menus that arent there
...
menu, phone info, storage devices, tri-mmc, menu format.

You should definitely do this - I began using a TF card right out of the box w/o formatting -and it caused some problems.
It's working better now that it's formatted.

I can't locate the format option for the Transflash memory. I go into:
Phone Status -> Storage Devices ->
TRI-mmc
And I just get a status of it.
I can't find the format option anywhere else, and certainly not in the documentation.
I surmise whomever wrote this stuff is not an end-user, as it's very unintuitive!
...
phone status/storage devices/TRI-mmc then hit menu 😁
...
Ah, how very "un-obvious" ;-)
Thanks.
I hope Moto does a better job next time on the docs.

You should format it with the phone, otherwise you wont be able to see your photos or mp3's under the media menus. You will always have to manually switch to the TF card to see them.
