Curious if this is could already be an available mod. i just dont see the reason to have the phones "internal sd" the primary saving point on our devices when we have external card up to 64gigs. i thought it was just the LG G2x. Any insight is greatly appreciated.
I don't think if there is a way on stock to get things to store to the external storage by default but the cyanogen from I ran for a while did.

yea, i was aware of that. Eaglesblood ROM actually has that but it's not touchwiz just aosp. kind of wanted to get away from aosp is possible.

I'm looking for a gingerbread rom that supports installing apps to a partitioned SD card. Does anyone know where i could find such a thing or is this confined to the kernel? My goal is to move as much a possible to my class 10 SD card and still have the programs work while mounted as a USB drive in windows.
Thanks in advance.
All froyo and plus roms support app 2sd

Maybe I'm not understanding something then. Am I correct in thinking that any gingerbread rom will install apps to a partitioned as card by default? Im not talking about the way app settings does and they are unuseable if you have mass storage enabled while connected over USB.
I'm running the EH17 leak if that helps.
No roms do it by default
You have to do it yourself

Have any pointers?
Get an app for it our maybe switch to the nexus s

My gallery doesn't see storage anymore if I flash past 8/02/12
Is this just the way it is or is there a way to fix it?
Thanks!

Storage has swapped since then to correct locations. For many things Internal will have swapped for External and vice versa.
There are a few things that have been in progress since then. 1, a couple of AOSP/CM9 acceptable schemes have been tried the final has been arrived at
2, some issues with applications have arisen, i think this is generally fixed
3, i know the latest issue is deleting in gallery isn't working right.
The nightlies are built off Chris's latest committed code. The changes in storage are permanent so some of your applications / defaults will be backwards from what your used to. The issues however are and or will be fixed and they were known about it the day they showed up.
I know a few people reported files being there and they could not see them at all. I have been working from clean installs with no issues. Pictures that were taken with the 7-17 nightly were stored on the storage device they were originally and the camera now saves to the new location both are visible in gallery for example. Not 100% sure but i believe the SD card is now the default write location.
The gallery says there is no external storage available.

Sounds like the solution is to go back to 8/2/12

What info would help? All I know with my naked eye is that the storage seems to flip flop or something. The gallery says there is no external storage available. I tried to get a screenshot with the built in screenshot feature but because it sees no storage it won't save it.

Well if your coming from a TW Kernel nightly (7/31 or older) to a source kernel nightly (8/02 +) to one of the newer source kernel nightlies I would recommend a clean install i mean storage has changed atleast 3 times.
As per Chris's notes I did notice that the option inside storage was checked causing emmc to be mounted as external_sd. But everything is working for me on a clean install either or. Problems can only really be solved once you get that out of the way. Otherwise revert to whatever you liked and be prepared to do a clean install when we go official. I can only recommend it when such a leap occurs.

So I can't get this to work. ... anyone know why? Something about storage emulator. ...
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I have to ask.. why? My GN2 shows that I have 9.3 GB free... I understand the need for this on the older devices like the OG EVO where int storage was scarce but on our kind of devices with so much memory... what is the point?
Really? It's pretty common knowledge that Google removed that functionality from Jelly Bean.

works great
i bought a 64gb class 10 sdcard and followed that video (can't put links yet) but someone posted the link in this thread and it's working great.
I did have some trouble moving the apps, but i am a noob with android, I just uninstalled it all and re-downloaded them on playstore (couldn't figureout titanium pro) it downloaded on the new 64gb, all the apps run great i didn't notice any lag at all, everything seems to be downloading to the 64gb I'm HAPPY!
Well I stand corrected.

I also like to have the option and I am glad to see that it can be done.
I got a 64gig card as well, and really don't see the point using apps2sd anymore. 10gb free on the phone is a lot of apps, but I'm also a pretty light user compared to most.
Unfortunately, running you SD card as internal memory puts a tremendous amount of strain on the card. There's a high chance of corruption at some point in time, then you're screwed. I prefer something like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp

If you pull the card will it automatically swap to internal?

My problem is just as the title says. First time this has happened to me, wondering if anyone else is experiencing this as well.
Oh btw it is a 2gb one and it says sd-c026 taiwan on the back. Could it be faulty? But i can transfer regular files to and from it.
Maybe, I had an issue with CWM not recognizing a particular sdcard.
Also I can't move App to sdcard with lupus jb kernal for some reason.

Do you have enough space on your SD card?

No doubt it's a real hassle when our internal space is small. There really seem to be too many possible causes, sucks. But i'm on the turbo kernel.

Yep, have like 1gb of free space still and yes, am rooted
You could try using link2sd. You can move apps to the SD card with it

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.
Thanks for all of your responses. The problem has since been solved after I had flashed a new rom. I must say, I was fascinated by the smoothness of gb roms after having chased the latest versions of android for the past idk how long.
Am I missing some memory? Shouldnt I have more available then 3.5? Is this normal guys I thought this phone has 16gb internal?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
You got one of the recall S4's probably. Shake the phone and see if you hear something rattle, if so thats the missing memory. Take it back to the store for recall replacment
Some of that 16gb is dedicated to the "system" (Rom and pre installed app)

Most likely the other part of you answer. Although its a 16gb device only around half of it is usable storage. Still after flashing a ROM I tend to have 7+GB available. Backups take a big chunk. 2.5 - 3gb and by default store internally. Move these to an external SD and select external as default storage on next backup. I actually have a separate 32gb thumb drive+ otg cable with a backup from multiple ROMs. And I select the USB otg option. Keeps my on board SD cards clean.
