[Q] 32 GB sd card & Apps - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

After installing 32 GB card unable to download apps saying insufficient space. I have tried swapping internal/external memory. Still same applies. Can someone please help Running FREE GS3 v 2.0 rom.

Are you using any 3rd party apps, like lucky patcher? External sd card formatted correctly?

Hopefully you have luckypatcher then you can go to settings, troubleshooting, remove fixes and backups. If not your going to have to go into settings, application manager, select several apps and clear cache. I recommend you then download luckypatcher. Hope this helps.

then you need to uninstall lucky patcher and purchase the app (titanium) legitimately... what you have confessed to is, ultimately, theft and piracy and typically folks won't support that.

Luckpatcher
I do have legit Titanium backup. So what is lucky patcher?. I have fixed my 32 GB card issue by swapping internal and external SDcards.

Best rom to free up internal memory

Which is the best rom to free up internal memory as the stock does not leave too much spare
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda premium
CM7 from alquez
Takes only 80 MB of your internal memory. So around 400 MB over for apps etc.
Sense rom gives you 120 MB for apps etc.
Apps 2SD gives you more space, but internal memory is faster.
You can also keep more memory for music, videos, ... on your sd card.

I had that going myself but eventually it just stopped letting me download more apps off the marketplace, I cant remember the exact error message, so I reverted to stock, any idea's what caused that to happen?

If it was "insufficient memory" it was googles fault. The market was screwed. Idk if its fixed with the new update, but if not, just go to downloaded apps, find the market and hit uninstall updates. Google auto updates sometimes so it's a quick fix, but it works.

When you partition the sdcard, what exactly does it let you do? Can you have a separate partition for storage and put all your apps on the other partition, like move EVERYTHING so your phone has more memory? Also, how would you do this?

It allows you to move cache and apps. Have a look at jikintauru rom if you want it or just Google data2sd.

Oh I've moved to using Link2SD, works perfectly. As well, partitioned my SD and it works perfectly. Definitely going to buy a 32 GB card later

Black Notes Hybrid 2nd Gen memory swapped BIG PROBLEM.

I've succeeded with [ROM] Black Notes Hybrid 2nd Gen by doing:
DO FULL WIPE TO YOUR DEVICE 2x (flashing newer stock [I8150DXLM3 - Malaysia - New] before is recommended)
DO RESTORE VIA CWM SELECT RESTORE DATA
REBOOT
DONE
everything was smooth & fresh everything is close to perfection. I was greatly surprise with it performance & smoothness thanks all to @Rio Saputro
the problem comes when i've successfully done memory swap as you can see on the attachment. it work well, just that i find it weird when i restore USER APPs + Data with titanium backup it seem restoring the app to internal memory (restored whatsapp app + data used up like +-20mb of internal memory).
I tried install app from play store some of it didn't used up internal memory but for like fruit ninja it used up like 3~5mb of internal memory.
once i've done memory swap i done like 20-30 apps restore using titanium backup when i reboot the phone it laggy & spiky then when i check the storage my internal memory left +- 500mb...
i've done re-flashing rom but still the same & also tried to changed the setting of restore app memory but nothing works.
anyone faced this? before this i was using Cow ROM v7 (Bionic Cow 2) but works perfectly which the rom comes with memory swap.
i've been deciding my next step of solution :
1. redo memory swap
2. do this (no idea if it's work on phone or even GB)b [MOD] MicroSD 2 Internal Memory Swap w/ICS support
3. worst come to worst stay unswap that's means wasted 64GB
SANDISK MOBILE ULTRA MICRO SD which cost me a bomb
I didn't know sgw can support 64gb of microsd card.. could it be the source of the problem?

Restoring TB backed up User + Data not recommended when restoring to new ROM.
What ROM was TB backup made with??
Don't restore App Data from one ROM to a different ROM.
In your TB pics, 1 & 3.......Internal Memory is exactly the same!!! 947/948MB
Are you speaking about your Internal SD?? [Which now has Large Physical SD Card Mapped]
I would also say that quite a lot of the SD card is unusable due to what darkteb says, 32G may be the limit for SD cards on our device....
Pic 3 says Total 59G, usable 39G....does your App Data take up 20G??
Android Default location for Apps is Phone Memory, not any SD!!
AFAIK, and understand, with a mount swap implemented, External SD card [1.8] and Internal SD/USB Storeage [64/32??] behave same as always, just reversed......
Moved Apps will go to External, which is your 1.8......no sign of any moved Apps!!!....have you moved any Apps???
So, all your Apps are on Internal Phone Memory.......about 192M of Apps, is that about correct?? [947M Free/192 Used]

1. ROM? GB 2.3.6? backup made up with(i don't get it)
2.oh the picture is duplicate.psps
3.yup device memory available: 0.88gb( the first picture)
4. not true. i've search & discover all other android forum most of android can support it simply just insert the 64gb sd card to phone & format it under setting then its usable.
5. oh..that 20GB is made up of my own songs video and other media stuff. nothing to do with other apps.
6. Really? before this i used Cow ROM v7 (Bionic Cow 2) i've all those app that i backup with TB before & it didn't used up like 500mb of my device memory also.
7. i've not move any apps to external
8. right. but for some apps that required download data after installation the data will store in USB storage.
Appreciate your Help.

yup most android can support it's same format of sd FAT32. just format the sd with your phone under storage setting & use.

hmm..just a thought maybe because those apps are backup from DXLC1 & i restored to Base band XXLM6 rom might have changes on it's default app storage.
Anyway i'll try it again on DXLAC1.

Another comment is the Class of ur MicroSD. If u are using Class 4, swapping is not a good attempt, it will cause slow loading and laggy to ur device.

Hi yewsiong......
I think you may be correct in identifying the SD Card Class as a possible problem.
Thanks to OP for info regarding the 64G SD, but the class would also be crucial. [Good to know the SGS will accept 64G Card!!!]
Not sure where you see the 1.83G on Internal Card. In OP's pics??
TB pics point to nothing on 1.8G SD [Called External]...the Storage pic (2) does not show the top of the screen, SD Card Total Space bit missing, but I suspect it will show 1.7G....not sure where TB gets the 1.83G from???
For OP:
I still contend that restoring User Apps +Data is not good practise, and is not recommended if you have flashed a new ROM whether new Android Version, or same Version, like 2.3.6......not all 2.3.6 ROM's are the same, as we know.
Most custom ROM Devs say do not restore User Data!!! [even sometimes when going from one version to another version of their ROM.]

I'm sorry, but either you are completely confusing your storage areas here, or I simply don't get it......
Device memory refers to Phone Internal memory, always, no matter whether you have swap or not!!!

Hi Irish~
take a look at the bottom of TB pics. 1.7GB is the available storage but 1.83GB is the total space (some space will be taken due to formatting and partitioning)
From what I know so far, SOME developers do not recommend users to restore files from previous ROM is not mainnly because of firmware version but the permission problem which lead to FC. (For example, u allowed ROMtoolbox to have SU to run some tasks in previous ROM but haven't enabled it in the new one, it can cause FC problem)
It can simply be solved by using fix permission via CWM or ROM Manager anyway.
However, if u want to restore apps from different firmware such as from GB 2.3.6 to CM9 (ICS 4.0.X), some apps are just incompatible. That's why acro68 asked us to re-download from market rather than restoring it.
Besides, even restoring contacts/messages could lead to FC problem too though it is a bit unusual.

Thats mean if i restore to original location is to 1.83GB (internal sdcard) ??
But i want it to restore to my USB storage which is my sd card due to memory swap.
FYI im using sandisk ultra mobile class 6 its faster that normal class 10 sd card. You can go their website and check it out.
Ive tried out myself its faster transfering file to internal sd via usb tranfering feom pc.

Yup. I know that.
U can restore some of them 1st then use TB to move them into ur huge "internal sd". Two times should be able to finish.
After u have completed, delete the old TB backup folder and remake TB backup for this ROM. Hence, the original location will be what u want for future restoring on SWAPPED rom.

Correct me if i am wrong, but with all android phones, the internal storage is partitioned. 2 gigs are used for downloaded apps, another couple of gigs are used for the system and the rest of the remaining storage is used for the downloaded data within the apps.
Also try moving some of your apps to the SD card. It will help free up some storage in that 2gb partition.

Ou might be right for the partitions but ive never had this problem before. I think something messed up perhaps the partitions? I moved all my apps to the sd card the problem is still there. The bigger storage in the phone just iant being utilized or sonething like that.. I was on the embryo rom for good 4 -5 months had ****load of apps and never had an issue.. been running jedi rom for a few weeks and encoutered this problem. It just doesnt make sence.

I had this same issue on jmt v5, I have no idea what caused it or how to fix it I tried everything, it's like the Rom won't store anything anywhere but the system partition, it's very strange, I switched to embryo Rom by Mohan, all the great touchwiz stuff, very fast and stable, only difference is no Wi-Fi calling, but if u can handle that go flash embryo, best touchwiz Rom I've seen to date

After doing some digging with Root Explorer, I found my phones data hidden in root/data/media/android and ended up manually cutting and pasting pictures, etc. to my sdcard 1 (external). That freed up some space!
