I use Xperia M Single with latest 4.1 update (India)
Rooted
I swapped my SD and Internal memory before, but file duplication problem occured in Walkman app and Gallery, and so much headache, so i disabled the script and returned to old self, no more swap. I use Sandisk UHS 16 GB Class 10 SD card
This is where problem started.
My Walkman app couldnt detect mp3s, so i cleared cache and data, mount/unmout SD, then moved all songs to SOUNDS folder and mp3s got detected, as good as before root.:victory:
However, Album and Movies apps are still dead. They read only internal memory. I tried the same tactic, clearing data and cache in their dedicated app settings, moved around folders, yet these 2 apps cant detect SD card.
I downloded Rescan SD app, that doesnt help either.

I moved my apps to my SD card last night but now none of them will launch after a reboot. I can see all the files on the SD card fine, my music plays and everything, but the apps i moved all show default android icons and will not launch.
HELP!

Huh.... Is your memory card formatted correctly? I've heard if a memory card is format into fat32 then they linux based file system wont recognize the apps. Maybe thats your problem? Hope that helps.
Hey there
I recently rooted my phone (Micromax Canvas 4), my phone is having 16GB of ROM which is divided in 2 parts 2.4GB for apps and 10GB for storage as internal SD, the 2.4GB is kinda really low for me, I found about link2SD which basically stores apps on SD, it needs a second partition on SD, I followed all the instructions and yesterday when I formatted my SD and made 2 partitions as 8GB for storage (FAT32) and 2GB as second partition for apps (ext4), the phone was unable to read the SD card, even Link2SD didnt detected second storage, I chksdk the SD on PC it found no error, then I formatted the SD from my phone itself it was showing a notification as Internal SD damaged, try reformat, I want able to make it readable again and it was back to original 10 GB storage, luckily i copied the SD data before doing this and I was able to bring back my phone to original condition, so I want anyone to help with second partition and Link2SD.
Also I want to replace gallery with quickpic since stock gallery creates huge thumbnails on internal SD and is slow, when I freeze Gallery with Titanium Backup the stock camera app also freezes, somehow they are connected, is there a way to freeze gallery without freezing stock camera, if there isnt please suggest a camera app that is as good and close to stock camera without extra useless features.
Thanks
Format your SD card from PC ..use mini tool portion wizard for partition SD card .

i was just wondering is it possible to edit a app ?:
so that rather installing the videos and documents and audio to internal storage to , install to the /extsdcard instead
also look into the sdcard for said files instead of internal storage
Let's see here... I use xposed Downloads to SD, and many apps find what I put on SD. Some apps need to be moved to SD to find the data. fortunately, Android 4.x allows most apps to be moved to SD, so no special apps are needed.
So far all my media apps including Studio, Gallery, Hi-speed camera, Stock video player, and MX Player do just fine finding media both on SD and internal.
If you want defaults to SD storage, you will have to edit the config file associated with the app, if the app does not have a feature to change storage location. Not all apps have a config file nor use the ssystem.db database.
i have one app that can be moved to sd but still downloads its documents/videos/audio to internal storage ,, it doesnt matter if the app is on sd card or internal it always looks for the folders in internal storage even if i move the folders manualy
hmm sorry didnt read properly trying it out now
Gooberdude i salute you thanks for that , by using downloads2sd, i set the two main folders up for music and movies onto sd card, re-install the app and redownload from app, this binded the file on sd card to the app
exactly what i was looking for
thanx again
Your welcome!
Hi folks
On Google play edition rom, updated to marshmallow via ota update. Initially converted my sd card to use as internal storage but phone very sluggish.. Converted back to use sd card for portable storage and phone zipping along. When I open the camera app though I get an error insert sd card before using camera..
I cleared the camera app data and cache and rebooted but no joy. Any suggestions?
Cheers
Mick
Try formatting the card (exFAT). Something may have just been corrupted converting it back/forth for use as internal storage.
Hi guys,
I have searched but cant find anything that matches my questions. I updated to 6.0 the other day and I formatted my SD Card as internal storage. It went ok and stated that 400mb could be moved which I did.
My issues are that I was led to believe once this was all set up any app could be moved to the SD card but thats not the case apps like Facebook cant be moved...is this the same for everyone?
And more importantly when I download a new app it installs to internal as default but then I can choose to move it manually to the Sandisk SD. Surely they should install the SD as default or split at least? at this rate the internal storage will continue to get full and nothing on the SD that's meant to be treated in the same way.
Any advice would be great!
Thank you
Anyone? someone else must be using the SD as internal memory?
