PLEASE HELP!!!
I bought a 16GB Galaxy Note 2, i want to swap my internal 16 gb with my 32 gb external,
i found a thread and did that,
now in Storage section my Device Memory shows as 29.xx gb and in my computer's browser my int SD memory shows as Card and my External Class 10 Memory shows as Phone, BUT THE BIG THING IS:
in android's app manager section it's still shows that i have 9.xx GB available for my apps
I flashed my phone with a alpha kernel with init.d support and then i flashed it with a zip that contains the scripts to swap my memories
so for now i use stock samsung firmware with a custom init.d support Kernel
what did i miss ?
PLEASE SOMEONE ASSIST ME WHAT I'VE BEEN MISSED?:crying:
Thank u my beloved developers, i really proud of all of u guys

Hi,
I need your help. I've got a rooted desire running Oxygen 2.0RC ROM (thanks AdamG).
Question is...I keep running out of space when installing apps. I've seen references to "A2SD and EXT2/3/4" and so forth around the forum.
Can someone explain to me what they are and how I can somehow fool my desire into thinking my 16Gb micro SD card is part of its internal memory. I've already moved as many apps as I can to SD card but I keep running out of space.
Is it even possible to fool the desire into thinking the SD card is internal memory??
thanks in advance!
First of all, you're posting this in the wrong forum- this belongs in the Q n A section.
What you need to do is to use an A2SD+ paritition. Download Rom Manager, and make a partition with 512mb and 0mb swap. This will "extend" your internal storage and give you loads more space.

Thanks Samleung.
Just tried that. Seems to have worked so far. Am i right to assume that I have now extended my space by 512mb?
It's not necessarily an extension per say. From now on, your apps will still be installed on the internal memory, but with greatly reduced memory needs as it will be installed to the 512mb partition as well. Download "Quick System Info" to see how much of the 512mb has been used.
I suggest you reinstall your rom, just to be extra sure everything is installed there.
Remember to post in the correct section! PM me if you have any more questions.
Hey hope somebody can solve this problem
I bought a new 7 GB SD card for my Wildfire not so long ago and saved most of my apps from the phone accross to it. All was fine for a while until my phone alerted me saying that it was low on storage space. On checking the memory card I noticed that I still had well over 6 GB of free space. All the apps that I checked are saved onto the SD card and some don't give an option to be moved to SD card. This is also stopping me from downloading new apps and also all the apps I have wont update as it says there is no space, even though there is plenty.
My wildfire is NOT rooted and has the original HTC installed Android OS (Froyo 2.2.1)
I am planning on rooting the phone and putting on a custom ROM in the future but in the meantime I was wondering if there was a solution to this problem.
All help is appreciated.
Thanks, Wooster
When your deivce say that you are low on storage than it means that you don't have enough internal memory space left!
You cannot move many apps to your sd card because your device is not rooted.
I would recommend you rooting your device to solve that problem because then you can create custom mtd partitions and installing a2sd script (both can be found in development thread).
Thanks for the reply. I will just root the phone then today. Thanks for the help

Few days ago I tryied to increase the 4.4 gb of memory of my CM11 grand duos using a script of a CM 11 S duos (that worked for that phone) and SURPRISE... now my system recognize 2 sd cards: sdcard0 and sdcard1. Because of that any stuff I try to install directly in sd card goes to internal memory and I get to transfer it manually to the correct SD Card. I would like to some gentlemen help me with sending the original script (the one that when you make the change for swapping) for starting from zero, I mean to let it the way it have to be (or the way Developer want it to be)! Thank you all very much!!
hoping someone can help. I have a tab 3 T210 running 4.4.2. Its rooted. I wanted to know if theres a way to set apps/games downloaded from playstore direct to ext sd card. Internal memory is small and fills up. I have a 32gb ext sd card and want to use it. already used folder mount to improve it. But hope a way to download direct to ext sd to save more space
1. Wrong category.
2. Nope there isnt a way. The best way is FolderMount really.
Folder mount is great for storing the files on yr extSdcard and able to save space, ive used it for years..
Try Apps2Sd or
Links2sd
I think these are what your looking for
Moved to correct board
Hi there,
I recently installed LinageOS to my Galaxy S4 (GTI-9505). Before I used the last stock ROM Samsung provided. Everything seems to run fine and until now I'm very pleased with the new OS on my smartphone.
But I have a question regarding the usage of a SD-card. The phone itself has 16 GB of internal memory. Additionally I have a 16 GB SD-card inserted. AFAIK there are two options on how to use the SD-card with LineageOS.
1. Use it as removable memory for photos, videos, etc.
2. Use it as expansion for the internal memory.
When I use it as figured in No. 1 am I still able to install apps on the SD-card? Just like with the stock rom where you explicitly had to move apps to the SD-card.
What happens when I'm using it as figured in No. 2? At the moment the card doesn't seem to be used that much as I have plenty of internal space. Won't it be used until the internal memory is full? What happens when the SD-card dies while it is used later on? Does that automatically brick my device so that I have to reinstall everything?
Are there any recommendations on that topic? Thank you.
Best regards
willy
