Without anything left in internal!!
Some of the app data is stored in internal memory. But app can be moved to external SD card.
Use Link2sd application, available on play store.

I am sure this requires root access however does this app work and is it helpful in moving apps from internal memory to external sd card?

Yeah! It works great. And works after rooting phone.
But first you need to setup your sdcard. Like partitioning sdcard.
And you should not remove card after moving apps or you need to reboot your phone.

Apps Still taking up space on phone

Hi Everyone,
i currently have a Rooted HTC Desire with DJ Droid V1.2 and froyo. I have setup my SD card partitioned to 512mb. Everytime i install an app to the SD card or even move it to the SD card, it still takes up the full space on the phone. For example i had 116mb free on my internal storage then after installing fennic (takes up 18.51mb) i had 97.80mb left so it took up 18.19mb out of a 18.51mb install.
Am i doing something wrong? can anyone advise?

Dalvik cache and data will still be on the internal memory, only the physical app will get moved to sd card.

ok fair enough but look at how little space is actually being stored on the sd card (0.32mb) Are you saying that the app is only 0.32mb and 18.51mb of that app is data? by the way ive never used this app so i dont know how it has 18.51mb of data.

well maybe in the case of firefox, or whatever name its going by, as its only a alpha/beta does not correctly move to SD.
see attached screenshot

ok i prob picked a bad app as an example i was just trying to get something with a large install. i tried it with another few apps after partitioning my sd card and it seems to work fine. Thanks man.
Just one question. what is app2sd for? is that the routed version of what froyo has? it only lists like 2 apps to be able to move. which one moves the apps to the ext partition, app2sd or applications (in system menu)?

Not all apps will have the ability to "move to sd" on froyo, however with "apps2sd+" or "ext apps2sd" everything will be saved onto the ext parition of the sd card.
So since i have app2sd already preinstalled on the djdroid rom, i already see all my apps are movable to the SD card. is that correct? or are just most apps movable anyway
app2SD doesnt MAKE all YOUR APPS MOVABLE. It just alerts you when an app is movable.

Two things!
1. Why resurrect a thread that is nearly 3 months old?
2. If someone is using Apps2SD with an EXT partition, everything is already installed on the EXT partition and so is already on the SD card. There's no point "moving" it to SD since all you'd be doing is shifting it from the EXT partition to the FAT32 partition!

Move apps to SD Card not working

Hi all,
I have my phone as it came from the store. All stock, not rooted, and I have a 32 GB Class 10 SD Card in it.
Through the Settings / Application Manager / On SD Card I have the option to thick what apps I'd like to move to the SD Card.
If I check any apps it acts like it was moving the app (even if I click on "Move to SD Card") but actually it stays in the device memory.
I can "move" all the apps to the SD card, the phone will tell me that they are on the SD card and it gives me the option to move them back to the device's memory, but for real there's nothing in my sd card, and device's memory is full.
Any ideia what's the problem? That feature works very well in my old Galaxy Y Duos.
Thank you!
It's a known issue the apps are moved to the internal (emulated sdcard) not the external sdcard
Oh that sucks! I was just wondering the same thing.....

You're completely wrong bro....
That is not a bug. When you move app to SDCard, it doesn't move large data. If you want to move the data and the game still works, go to the Play Store and search for FolderMount (NEEDS ROOT). Read the instructions carefully and use it. Thats what I do to move 10GB of data and still the game works. Good Luck.
Press THANKS if I helped!

Thanks but it seems like there is something wrong. It doesn't move ANYTHING, though it says it's moved. That's an issue.
It's like fburgos wrote earlier, it's an know bug on the Gs4mini. It sucks!

That's the workaround I use folder mount, works nice as expected when moving obb, picture, downloads, music, and documents folder to the extsdcard.
I haven't moved apps to the sdcard lately but I'm pretty sure the apps data where in the emulated when I try that option the first time.
GL to SD also works: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp
Do you guys think Samsung will provide a solution? I can't root it, I still need guarantee. My phone is still locked.
Maybe Kit Kat will solve this problem?

I doubt it, as this function isn't available in custom ROMs as well.
Unless it system apps you want to move, otherwise the GL to SD app I provide above will work. It just the free version only allows you link up to 5 apps.

[Q] How to install apps on SD?

I recently bought an sd card. I am rooted running Iron rom and skyhigh kernel for the T800. For anyone using sd cards, is there a way to install apps to it and run it fine on my device while it being on my sd? Can someone tell me an app or something so i can save space on my internal storage? I have also applied the sd patch and formatted the sd with my tab s. Thank you!

It kinda works.. It just moves the data over. Anyway it doesnt matter as most games I have are small, so I can move all the big data to the sd and mount it from there. But thanks for the help!

Re: SD Card Into Internal Memory

Re: SD Card Into Internal Memory
Hi guys
Can you let me know how to make the SD card part of the internal memory. The A5 2017 is a good phone but the problem is the limitation in the internal memory and seriously i'm not willing to change the phone just because it lacks space. So, if someone knows how to make the SD card part of the internal memory, please do share. Since I'm quite new, if there's a need to root the phone or whatever, please send the instructions also. Much appreciated.

As I know, on stock you can't do this, but on android8.1 unofficial ROMs yiu can do that.
if you want to use more app in your phone, can use "link2sd" app. it links app 2 sd
else you can use custom rom to combine sd memory and phone but in this case you cant use sd card out of your phone because other devices cant detect that.

I used app2sd on a different phone and you could even link system apps.

it's saying link2sd could not obtain root access.
if you have root access make sure you respond "allow" or grant to the superuser request.
how to sort that out?

internal storage issue

Hi there
After rooted my sony xperia xa1ultra I'm having problems with the internal storage
When I make a backup with titanium for copying it later to the external sd and remove it from internal storage
My phone can't resize it well and keep on considering that space as occupied after I have let it free removing the backup
What can it be?
What can I do?
Thank you
Can't you just make titanium put the backup on the SD and skip the internal storage?

Try to reformat the SD card within Android and see if that works

Before I try this I would like to know if you know a way to fix the real problem because if I do what you suggest me I'll solve temporary the problem but it's sure I'll have issues in the future. I add a picture where you can see how my pc can neither size the internal storage of my phone
Thank you
Well I'm elimating one issue. You have to trouble shoot
