Yeesh, not exactly the easiest answer but hey, what can you do? Windows seems to hate ext2 with a passion. Maybe I'll try to contact MartinFick and ask if I can include his script in my app so it can auto-partition the sd card for you.... Can't make any promises though, that's already sounding pretty daunting.

That would be awesome Marcus. I just called customer service for sandisk and he said you cant partition a micro sd card??? weird considering there are a lot of people who have already done this.
If you can get it into your program that would be awesome but i still cnt download anything on 5.0.1g

Umm sandisk representative totally lied... They probably just didn't want you to do that so they won't have to deal with it if your card gets messed up.
On the app front, looks like it's not going to be incorporated for a while, I talked to the dev who wrote the sdsplit script and it apparently has trouble with micro-sd cards over 2GB, and isn't in a final enough state that I'd be comfortable putting it in(I'm trying to avoid bricking people's phones as much as possible).
Oh and Haykuro put up an update called 5.0.1gr2 that is a temp fix for the market issue.

This is weird. Everytime I post from my phone it says I have to wait 30 seconds to post then Iit posts it twice.

Ahh that makes sense. I was wondering what the 5.0.1gr2 version was. I am still on 5.0g because I never had problems with mms.
Marcus how or what program did you use to get the apps to sd?
Also what does your program actually do that is on the market?

Hey Marcus,
Yeah I was the one who discovered the issue with memory cards of over 2GB. Below 2GB it really does work like a charm. You should be able to just put a quick if/then statement that checks the size of the sdcard, and only runs the SD Card formatting for smaller cards.

There's your problem. When it comes to technology, 95% of the time the guy (or gal) on the other side of the line is reading from a script and doesn't know a partition from a file allocation table. Customer service exists for the most part to act as a crude filter for repairs and exchanges.
If your first instinct was to call customer service for the memory card manufacturer, maybe you should steer clear of apps-on-sd

paragon partition magic 9 did the trick. just did my 8gig last night on the demo version.

- I have searched google and all around this site but i havent found a definint answer to doing the partition on vista.
It was defintly a last resort effort.

Ill try that tonight. What was the site you downloaded that from??

I just partitioned my card, and did apps to sd, but when I installed wallpaper set and save, it failed, then I found it on my applications in setting tried to uninstall there but that failed how would I remove it with terminal.

if all else failed you can(as superuser) do "cd /system/sd/app" and then find the name of the apk for the app you're trying to uninstall and do "rm (name of the file)"

If we really believe that is the only issue (size greater than 2GB), I might consider putting a check into sdsplit. Not sure how to reliably check that in the first place though?

New idea?
Hey guys, you made me think of a new suggestion on a way for users to create large FAT partitions on their phones, but it will require help, so I wrote it up here:

The inception.pyv and the inception.pyv.png, they originally go into a movie folder in your sd card. you might want to try creating the movie folder in your sd card and putting those files in there.

So let me get this clear..YOU formatted your sd card and expect t-mo and samsung to install something to the sdcard..
Now since YOU didnt make a backup prior to formatting you're pissed at both companies.
This is not either companies fault, this is on you and only you. Own it and deal with it.

So you think 1.3gb media file should be included in a restore??? wow... Don't blame others because you forgot to back it up.
It's not included because it's not actually part of the Rom it's exclusive to the SD card that came with the phone.

Well off to watch inception lol

You are right it is their fault, . They could put it in with the Odin restore file because you OWN the phone meaning you OWN the movie. I bought a few movies from the play store and I can format the device all I want and still download the movie because I OWN it. Amazing concept I guess right

Since this thread is on the Inception topic, does anyone know a player that can play the movie, or a way to convert it to a watchable format on PC/Android? Ever since flashing to a custom ROM (first Octane, now AOKP), I haven't been able to find a player that will play it, so I just removed it from my SD card. If there's a way to pull, I'll copy it off my sister's phone.

No its your fault for not making a backup. You never owned the movie you had a free copy that was part of your phone. T-Mo and Samsung are not required to supply the movie that came on the sdcard not the rom itself. Everything they include in a rom is available within a tarball. If it is not included then its not something they are responsible for. When I bought my phone the shortcut for the movie was on my homescreen but no where on the sdcard.
The company responsible for providing the movie is the movie studio. So they are who you should be bugging and complaining to.

So has my phone I bough already unlocked and the sdcard didn't have the inception movie ......the funny part its that I was newbie in android stuff and the xperia play was already available and I just bough the phone because I was thinking "oh yeah free movie and it looks cool" then when I charged the phone first thing I did is click the movie icon but then it said file not found my first reaction was "FUUUUUUUUUUUU" lol

Yes, it is a good idea. People make mistakes. Having an up-to-date backup has been invaluable to me on a couple of occasions. After thinking I knew what I was doing and became a little more confidant, I got lazy and did not backup to my pc. Not much fun. Lost a bunch of things, but losing the pics of my wife and kids bothered me the most.

[Q] How to survive without an SD card??

Hello fellow XDA members,
I may be upgrading to my first smartphone without an SD card since the first moto droid came out. I have become very dependent on my SD cards, my current phone has a 64gb SD card which I am using a good portion of it.
My assumption is that about 95% of all people use their phone for their music device. I DO NOT stream. I would not have the data capacity for that. I put all of my 2000 songs on my SD card and throw on the shuffle or sift through and find what I like. I do this because I drive over 20-30 hours a week and steaming would easily crush my data for more important things and also I think it's pointless to not stream exactly the songs you want that at that moment.
I also have approximately 2000 pictures and growing. Which I would prefer to keep on my phone to reference when necessary or just look through for memories.
What to do If I upgrade to a new phone with only 32gb internal storage, leaving approximately 25gb of space left for stuff.
What do you people use? How do you deal with having limited storage but being a heavy user? I cannot legitimately think of anything without making sacrifices on how I use the phone meaning I'd have to remove many pictures and songs to have room for apps and other stuff, which obviously I don't want to do, and I can't burn through data.
Thank you so much guys! I appreciate any advice!

You have Wi-Fi, don't you? Why don't you just backup all your photos on Google Drive? That could free up a decent bit of space off of your phone. As for music, I would recommend that you backup the songs you usually don't listen to on Drive as well. When you get home, you could backup your stuff, and you could retrieve whatever you need from Drive some time before you leave. I'm sure you've already thought of this, but just a suggestion in case you haven't. =P

Try rooting and uninstalling system apps(if there preloaded) Use cleaner master. It cleans alot. Mine cleaned 5gb in one month.
Try using basic cleaning. Apps that you dont use uninstall them as it took 3 gb of unused apps on my Phone

A solution so obvious you might have overlooked it, just don't use your phone for a music player. Get a Sandisk Sansa Clip Zip (or Fuze) .mp3 player and stick a microSD card in there. I've been using a Clip Zip for a couple years now. Small, weighs practically nothing, has great sound (with some tweaks). Plays FLAC too. Or just use an old phone as a media player.

Definitely get root access and remove all unneccesary system applications first.
Then, let's say you download an app that "needs" a physical sdcard - what do you do then?
Well, if I'm not mistaken there are ways to mount a "virtual sdcard" by repartitioning the unallocated space/taking some space out of another partition to act like an external sdcard. This will fool the problematic apps into thinking you have a real sdcard in, and then they will work correctly.
This would be more toward the technical side of this question, but yeah.

I do have two nandroid backups, and I keep switching between them. Each one is nearly considered another phone with its own apps xD
But I use this method mainly because I like modding my SM-G7102, so one backup is main, and another for testing new stuff and experiencing performance issues.
Good luck with your new phone.

I really think the idea of no SD card isn't necessarily a bad thing. As long as you have enough internal space. I have a 64gb SD card and I'm only using 18gb including 3 backups which total somewhere around 8gb.
I think about 25gb internal after rom and essentials should be more than enough. I only have 16gb of internal space of which 12gb is usable so I definitely think it's possible with 32gb

I dont know, I have 2000 pictures and 2000 songs both of which grow on a somewhat regular basis. Right now I'm using 24gb of my 64gb SD card. I have no backups on mine. Its 100% songs/pictures with maybe a little app data. In order to use the new phone I will have to do what someone said and get a separate music player. There's pretty much no other way for the quantity I have.

From my Wicked S3 on SOKP

There's several things that I did when I switched from SD -> Internal Storage.
First, most of the data I used was saved in the cloud. Google Photos backed up all my photos, music was streamed, etc. This allowed me to conserve a lot of space. Of course, if you don't have an unlimited data plan, then this isn't the best option.
Aside from that, there are apps that will help manage your internal storage. You essentially end up removing apps you don't need/use. This primarily includes games because they tend to be the largest apps.
For photos and videos, limit the amount that you store on your phone and use WiFi to fetch from the cloud as much as possible.
For music, same as above.
For media in general, if you want to go to super space efficient mode, save media in a compressed / lower quality format. For photos and videos this may mean low res. For music, change the bit rate of MP3s or don't use flac. Of course, this is if you can tolerate the loss in quality.
A potentially weird solution would be to archive (as zip, bzip, 7z, etc.) anything that you don't use.

Not weird at all - I discovered the usefulness (not a word?) of zipping up unneeded files as .zips, .bz2s and .rars about a half a year ago, and it's been a real lifesaver!
Do it, guys - it actually saves space!

+20GB space unaccounted for in all File managers. Ghost Data. Need help.

As you can see from the 2 pics, my phone shows 92Gb used in settings whereas multiple different file managers show my entire used Storage/ SD to be precisely 68.92Gb.
Where is this ghost data from and how can i find it?
PS this is not an error because the available space is indeed according to 92GB space filled. So only 23gb left.
Any advice is highly appreciated.

I have had very good success with the app SDmaid to clarify those occurences (aside from many other useful features of this app)

Have you tried to backup your important data then format down everything? I know this solution is not the best but perhaps can help you

I haven't yet but that Would be my last resort after Pie release, waiting for stable pie OOS before i format everything and make a fresh start.
Hopefully they will release it in a week or 2. *fingers crossed*

yea, i have the 128 model and when i first got the phone it said 116gb but i think not the OS takes up 20 GB so it leaves me with 106-108 and then i got like 12gb of data so i am already at 94gb, which is still enough but i really hate how big the android system takes up and guess it has to do with the A and B partition also.
