yes the apps that come with the device are stored on the system partition, as an out of the box desire dosent have r/w access to /system/, this portion is not a useable memory, only apps stored on the data partition with affect your device space, you can also see how much space has been free'd in \system\ by using quick system info from the market
So what would be the best Method to increase storage for apps? i keep getting low storage warnings!

You can try to use A2SD or any other app to transfer the instaled apps to the SD or another partition.
Use ROM Manager from app store to partition ur SD card. I was running out of internal storage, after doing this I have over 100mb internal space free...
Don't forget to backup ur SD card first!

Not all apps installs do internal memory. Some end up at the SD by default and many of those that installs to the internal can be moved to the SD.
A tiny part will be left on the internal memory but this really should not be an issue for you. You can have tons of apps.
Use the phone as u want and see where u end up at
Also "the tiny part which will be left on the ROM" will have around 1MB
i'm looking on this matter now, so i'm waiting to root my phone and clear some unused application, to clear my ROM
so how can we move apps on sd card

Head to Settings->Applications->Installed applications and find the app u want to move to SD. Click it and click "Move to memorycard"
Not all apps can be moved this way tho but it helps a bit!
yes there is the option to move them to sd card but it not apply to all apps
is there any software app who can move every thing to sd card then please tell
thank for your time sharing with this post..........
It's prossible to do a 'full' apps2sd if you have a rooted phone and a specially partitioned SD card, but i havent tried it on the arc so dunno if it will actually work.
I dont know why you really need to do this though. The root method i mention above was popular before 2.2 added built in apps2sd, particularly on older phones with small amounts of internal storage, but since android 2.2 there really isnt much point. I've got *tons* of apps installed on my arc, and still have more than half the space left.
There doesnt appear to be a massive thread describing how to get full apps2sd working for a rooted arc, the reason for this is because nobody really needs it. What are you trying to do that needs this?
be careful some apps wont work when their on your sd that why you can't move them.
for example don't move your launcher app ( when using one ) and don't move apps if you use a widget from the app ( or the app is a used widget )

I had the same issue as the OP..
I had install many apps, and then there is warning that my memory is low
I already installed app2sd and moved some apps to sd, but not all apps can be moved.
Is it possible to use an EXT partition on sd as an internal memory?
This trick is common in HD2 world (when using NANDROID).
I havent tried it with my Arc because it is unrooted.
If anyone has tried it, please share it with us
Thanks and cheers ...
I place all my apps too the internal storage. It's easy and there is enough space on the phone

[Q] Game data stored at internal or external card?

How do Note 2 with Jelly Bean handling big game data files after installed on the phone? Since its only 10Gb space left of 16GB and games these days can be 2-5GB big and how suppose to install few of these? Since Google have removed app2sd support on JB and might not support it on later android versions.
Anyone tried to install game with 2-5GB and does all install on inetrnal nand memory or game data auto install store at external card?
Still considering on if gonna wait for 32GB/64GB version instead and really wanna to know how Note 2 handle big game file size installs?
As far as I know, If you install the game's .apk into the external storage, all the data files associated with it would be downloaded to your external storage.

Hmm..didnt Google removed with Jelly Bean, choice to install game/app on external card? How suppose to install game on external card then and as I know can only do that with root?
Or depends on game/app developer make game install directly on external card?

[Q] Xperia Ion insufficient storage

Can someone please help me? My ion doesn't have enough phone memory to download anymore apps, but the internal storage has a few gigs open. I moved as many apps as I could to the internal storage, but I still can't even download 1 app. Is there any way to have apps automatically download to the internal storage? Thanks.
Once phone's memory is full, internal memory could not be used for installing any more apps no matter how much free space it has.
If i'm not wrong, Xperia ion as around 1.8 GB free for installing apps. and you have moved all apps to internal memory,
How many apps have you installed on your phone ? Are you trying to copy down whole Google play store in your phone ?

I moved all that I could to the internal storage but I still can't download any apps. It's says I've used up around 0.92gigs of the phone memory, all on apps then I have 4 gigs of apps in my internal storage and 4 gigs of free space. Every time I try and download something from the play store it just says insufficient memory.

What do you mean you moved everything to internal? Are you using all of your apps? You could try to uninstall some apps and see if downloading new ones work. You can also move applications to SD Card. That will also free up space. I would just uninstall some things I'm not using.
He's able to install JB because he has either the h or i version of the phone, with an unlocked bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader allows for more customization.
