my applications

so there is something weird going on my phone
when i install apps on my phone it should automatically install them on the sd card
cuz i did that thing when i installed the rom with the app2sd
anyway
sometimes when i install apps it suddenly installs them on the internal memory of the phone and not the external which is the sd card
and i dont know why
so i tried to download app2sd manually and try to move them to the sd card
but its not letting me
and because i have only 10 mb free on the internal memory so i cant download anything and i cant get sms and more stuff
and ideas what to do???

App2sd uses some internal memory still for cache and stuff. App2sd doesn't mean everything to do with apps will go on your SD card, just means some of it will. If the apps arn't actually going onto the SD card then reinstall app2sd. Personally, app2sd is useless and causes more problems than solves them.

but if i delete the app2sd it wont change anything and those apps that still installed on the internal memory will still be there so what should i do??

If you want applications to automatically install on your external storage (SD Card), why no try this: Click?

great man thx alot its working

[Q] Internal Memory question

So, I got my device s-off and rooted, was pretty excited when I had those stuff done.
But now,
Internal memory is still an issue, I read on xda like, removing the bundled or stock software comes with the phone won't make the internal memory get increased because those files are stored somewhere else that won't effect the total usable internal memory. Plus removing stock apps will stop using OTA updates.
So is there a trick that I can increase the internal memory of my phone? I already use the default save location setted to sd card, and moving apps to sd but it always leaves some files at internal memory.
I read somewhere like, I can make phone use my sd card's some part as internal memory, I saw a rom offering that but except that is there any program offering this without flashing rom?
And I have some knowledge about Linux, so I was wondering do I have a chance to use symlink command (symbolic link) to link my internal memory to sd card ?

Best way is to use a ROM with Darktremor Apps2SD preinstalled. I don't know whether it will work if you install it now.
The best alternative, in my opinion, is to format a partition of your SD card to ext3 with this guide and then use Link2SD.The partition can be as big as you want, but I believe that 500 MB should be enough.
It will earn you some space but not as much as the Darktremor Apps2SD will.

Thanks for the answer, I used the guide and Link2SD, but i am a bit confused here, I also use apps 2 sd program,
So for using less possible internal memory of my phone,
Should I install apps to phone memory and then link to sd card with link2sd
or
Install app in sd card (or move it with link2sd to sd card) then link?
Right now one of apps shown as Linked -> SD card. So is this the best scenario?
Because when I choose move to SD in Apps 2 SD, Link2SD says move to SD also, so it kinda like they conflict

To tell you the truth I'm not completely sure for what is better, but what I did was to first link all of them (application, dalvik & library if possible) and then move them to sd card with App2SD. I think there was a slight difference to the free space but nothing noticeable. Sorry, but I'm no expert, so everything I did was by trial and error!

Help, i can't move my apps to external sd card

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.

Not enough storage space

I recently bought a Redmi Note 7 and installed a SD card for extra storage. The system shows that I have the extra storage but when I try to download an app I get a storage error. How do I install and move my installed apps to the SD card. This seems like a very serious flaw in the design.

Same problem, any solution?
I'm having the same problem with my Redmi 7, have you found any solution to it? I can't find any way of moving apps and content to my external SD card. it is getting a bit ridiculous now at this stage.

Install DiskUsage from play store, and see what is taking up space

there are two ways to use SD card to save app data
1. enable adaptive storage (on our device it has to be enabled through adb, google it); when using this option sd card won't be usable on other devices
2. partition your sd card, basically you have to create a second SD card partition where you can save your data, then you can use apps like app2sd or link2sd to move apps to SD card

Moving apps to external SD card.

In order to free up some internal memory on my A3 2017 Android 8, I moved all moveable apps to an external SD card.
The problem is, when one of these apps is updated, this app is moved back to internal memory.
Is there a way to permanently leave these apps in the external memory?

Sadly no, that's how Android works. The system has to move the apps back to internal storage in order to update them. Play Store can't write on the SD card.

Ok, thanks for your answer.

... is it possible to mount the sd-card as internal storage?
I have the same problem. I want to use the phone any longer, because it works ... but the space is the problem.

It is possible but you must root your phone to do this.
Some bank apps will also not work with this solution.
It is a shame that this phone is only equiped with 16 gigs of internal memory.
I like it a lot because it fits my needs and that it is small enough to fit in my pocket.
