Hello All,
As we all know there a bit slight issue as far as the internal memory of Xperia Arc is concernend.. when I googled on how can we use our SD card to actually increase the internal memory so that we need not move the apps explicitly to the SD card, I came to knw that we need to create a partition on our SD card in ext4 format.. But I dint get the exact way of doing it... so can anybody tell me how we can do it? And does it need to have a custom ROM installed? Does it work on stock ROM also? Please help.. Thanks..
Try Link2SD or AD2SDX.
I tried Link2SD, but my problem was that after creating the new partition in FAT32, the phone won't mount the SD card, and keeps acting as if the SD card removed. When I deleted the second partition, everything went back to normal but without adding to the internal memory (which is the whole point)
I must have done something wrong but can't figure it out.
The second partition is the one that has to be in ext4 format and as logical so your phone will not try to mount it for storage purposes..

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.

try formatting sd card and clear the cache from walkman and album then try it, hopefully it'll work..
since xperia m has very little internal storage, now i am looking to buy 32gb memory card but little confused about this methods.
is swapping works perfectly? i dont want write scrpt again and again on every reboot
or sd card partitioning is good?
please give me suggestion which one is good.
Maybe just use gl to sd app to move game files to sd card. This method is safe and easy.
I think partitioning the SD card is better.
I m using this and it's perfectly fine.
use link2sd to move apps
and gl2sd or foldet mount to move game data to SD card
Eh I just swapped internal with SD. You do it once and then you don't have to deal with other apps.

Internal memory Card /Sd Card ist full
Hello Guys,
I´m so sorry for my english (because it´s so bad) and for any mistakes I will do in this Forum.
I just have one problem: My internal memory is all in used , it´s full.
Yesterday I flashed my smartphone ( S3 GT I9300) and it felt like I did it about 100times, because of freeze and the wrong kernel etc.
Then I tried to get in a backup again, to save a Game again ( Clash of Clans) but the backup does not work, so I tried another and another and...
Suddenly I realised that my free memory gets smaller and smaller. So I actually have only about 200-300mb free.
But I did not put anything on the device. Quite the contrary. I erase already some backups to have more memory...
So exist there any method to " tidy up" the internal memory card??
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks a lot
I´m so sorry...
best regards Gotschi

actually i recently rooted my xperia m c1904 and want to use my sd card to pla high end game ,i don't have unlock bootloader and running on 4.3 jellybean
Pls help me out as i m not able to use Link2sd in marshmallow to link apps. whenever i partition my sd card marshmallow forces me to format sd card to use
you dont need to install link2sd in marshmallow just remove the partition from your sd card . then you can either use your sd card as internal storage or portable storage even if your select portable storage you can easily move apps to sd card (data+app)
So I'm using htc desire 620g dual sim and i already rooted my phone successfully. Then i installed link2sd and lucky patcher just so i can move my apps to my ad card since my internal storage is running low. When i tried link2sd it said that "app2sd is not supported by your device because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from your internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your sd card." So i did just that, i tried linking to sd card but then it said that "/data/sdext2 mount not found. After that, i tried using lucky patcher, i selected sd card as the default memory on the toolbox part but when i tried moving ghe apps it said " Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE] but then i have 22gb left in my sd card.
Please help, i don't know what to do anymore. Please help.
