Fist off I apologize if this has already been covered, but I have not been able to find a thread that addresses this issue. I did find in search a reference that said this was an exsisting issue with tablets but was not sure if there was a work around.
The 16 gigs internal which shows up as sdcard on my gtablet is running out of room. Lots of games that take large installs.
I have a 32 gig microsd in the slot which of course shows up as sdcard2. I have been able to use this for media and for larger roms like psx images. However, is there a way to mount the card for apps 2 sd to increase the amount of storage available. Otherwise, I am now feeling very limited by the 16 gigs. If there were a way to force the whole 16 gigs for internal and the microsd to show up as sdcard 1 then I would be golden.
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreaciated.
Thread moved to General.
Any ideas? I thought this should be in device area instead of general since it appears there is no simple fix.

I just did a hard reset of my Infuse. I'm redownloading all of my apps from my Google account right now. But they're downloading to my 2gig SD card and NOT the 16 gig internal. and when i use app2sD it transfers them to the 2 gig internal phone storage instead of the 16 gig!
Is there a way to make apps automatically download to the 16 gig built in storage?
:O
This was asked and discussed yesterday. Hope this helps.:

Thanks!! I tried to look for similar posts. Guess I didn't look hard enough though
Is there a way to make the internal storage more usable after doing a data2sd (and even a rom2sd) install? I understand that if the card is pulled the tab will want something to fall back on, but it need not be huge. In my case I have under 6 gigs available from internal storage, and that just seems like a waste. There is a link to my old internal storage space I found as well, but is is separate and hard to get to. Anyone have any ideas? (and yes, I have been searching. Everything I find is on partitioning the external SD)
Thank you for all of your excellent work on improving the TF700!
I purchased a sprout cubby for my 3year old for Christmas im having an issue with the sd card... it seems the onboard drive was partitioned making the the second partition an internal sdcard my issue is this that partition is only 6gb of space and after only installing a handful of apps there is no space left for anything else.. id like to be able to move to apps to my 16gb external sdcard is there a way to do this eith by possibly dismounting the second partition or so other way I would prefer not to have to root the device at all as it will only be my 3 year olds tablet... this is the perfect device for her but I hate the lake of space...
please help!!!
Hi,
Unfortunately some of these tablets are a bit deceiving. They are advertised to have a specific amount of memory. However that does not take into account the amount of memory allocated towards system. But to only have 6 g off the bat seems a bit odd. There should be at least 10.
Now I also was unable to find anything relevant to your question for that device. It's not a common tablet for people who tinker. You can post your question here if you wish. However I truly do not think there is or will be a confirmed rooting method for this device.
Good luck!

hi I have a Kyocera hydro wave android version 5.1 model # C6740N 8 gig internal storage can use roughly 2.5-3.5 gig I have a 16 gig external sd card 14 gig free. I want to download and move games,apps,etc to my sd card to free up space. mostly because after my everyday app's, coc,Facebook,etc I cant even have one large 1-1.5 gig app. I've looked for answers to this for a long time. I know I can root my device, but dont own a computer and the people I know who do own one think everything anywhere is a virus so there's no explaining to them. I can move a few apps in app manager but of course its not really moving it. 50 MB app moves maybe 10MB OBO or what ever it's called remains on internal. I have seen the videos on how to download an app on the computer and somehow put it on the phone with usb, but as I said I have no access to computer if I did it looks a little complicated complicated. I am willing to pay app that will move apps to sd. I've tried these apps before but only free version. will a paid versionreally let me move the app to sd? apps like link to SD pro? And if the answer is specific to my phone that's good but the answer to this question on any android phone will work as well for future reference. thanks I appreciate your help and time.
All right, I know my phone is kinda old. It's a Samsung Galaxy S4. It's got 16 GB internal. For a long time, I've been using a 64 GB microSD card for everything that I possibly can (apps, photo, video, etc.), but even still the internal storage just isn't enough. The OS & pre-installed apps take up the majority of it, & the remainder is constantly filling up from application data & temporary files. I can't update apps because I need over 500 MB available internal storage & I only have about 30 MB available on a good day. I'm constantly clearing stuff & having to restart my phone. I'm thinking I should merge the memory card to be used as internal storage, rather than external, but I really want to make sure I don't loose anything. I've always been nervous about merging the card as I'm not sure how safe it is if the card were ever to fail, but I think it's really my best bet at this point. I would use a new card; I already have a spare 128 GB Sandisk Ultra Plus card, which claims up to 100 MB/s read speed, so I'm hoping that's fine. I'm also considering rooting my phone at some point, but I'm kinda nervous about that.
What's my best bet to merge a new memory card & move the apps & stuff over from the old card?
