I'm having problems installing a program to my storage card. I have enough space on the storage card, but my problem lies in that when installing a file that is larger than my available local storage memory I cannot install it.
For example, if I have 2000kb space available on the internal memory on my Smartphone, I can't install a 2500kb program to the storage card.
Please tell me there's a way to fix this?
Don't install via Active Sync, copy the cab to your SD card. If it still fails, means that that app must be installed on SD ( or have some parts installed on SD )
Thanks! That did the trick
i have on my internal storage folder called "_install" and "sdconfig.txt" what allow me to automaticly install cabs from internal storage during customizing (after hard reset).
i want to edit cab to change installation dir to Internal storage using WinCE CAB Manager.
i have created in "default Intall dir":
/Internal Storage/Program Files/app.name
but after customizing i have new folder on device memory called Internal storage.
Real 4gb internal storage is now called "Internal storage 2"
what to do to change installation dir to Internal storage?
you should just need a backslash ("\program......")
^ what he said. Also, to restore the name of your 4GB Internal Storage, just delete the Internal Storage folder on your device and reboot.
Hi everyone,
My Galaxy Ace Plus is my first Android phone, and since I bought it several months ago I was confused because I found 3 memory locations on my device: the Internal Storage, USB Storage, and the External Memory card that I added.
I can't really understand what the USB Storage is?
In fact I made a factory reset few days ago as the device was freezing a lot, and it asked me whether I want to format the USB storage or not, stating that if I chose to format it I will lose all my music and pictures and other files. So I became more confused because all my media files, ebooks, etc. are placed in the External Memory card! so why it would consume space of both storage locations!!
can anyone explain that please?
Also what will I lose if I formated the USB Storage only? would it improve the device performance anyway?
Thanks!

Internal storage , Usb storage & SD storage
internal storage is the one reserved for system, i.e 1.5 GB on Note, or in another words it is the flash memory of the device. It stores the components of ROM or the ANDROID OS. Applications get installed on this memory.
USB storage is the rest of the original storage on Note (i.e around 9.5 GB). In common language an Internal Memory where all your files are saved by default. This memory is used by most of the applications for storage of their data.
Most of the move2sd apps move apps from internal to SD Storage which means the USB Storage.
external SD Card storage, on the other hand, is the storage which relies on another SD Card put into the phone, e.g....external SD Card.
That's before you put external SD card..
If you put another SD Card in the phone, it will read as external SD Card. In the file system, it is known as external_sd.
Now, the answer to your next question.. Formatting the USB Storage of the phone is simply formatting your internal memory. It has nothing to do with PERFORMANCE. it just makes space available on your device's internal memory. :good:
Thanks a lot!

Hello, guys. Regards from Bulgaria.
I have tablet My Audio 9 908dcc with 8GB build-in memory. The thing is that INTERNAL STORAGE is only 512MB. Can I use the NAND FLASH (sdcard) as a default folder for download and installing apps?
I don't have a root access. Whenever I try to download from Google Play get's installed on my tablet internal storage. Even if there is a chance to move the app in sdcard, some 5-10MB remains in the internal storage.
Can you help me with that?
Regards,
David.
Hi there,
is it possible to recovery the deleted data from the internal memory? I found a way for SD but i need some one for the internal. I tried with USB Mass Storage but it not works with the internal memory.
Edit: If its possible without root access
