[Q] SD Question with ROM - General Questions and Answers

I have a 16gb SD card that is coming tomorrow, but I got my phone tonight. It came with a 2gb SD card. Can I root and install the ROM on my 2gb SD card and swap in my 16gb SD card tomorrow? Does the ROM install to the internal memory?

Hi,
“ROM” is the memory where the system files of the OS is stored. By default all downloadable apps are stored as well in this location. Therefore it would be better to install ROM in 16 GB SD card or you can also install it in internal memory and define the external memory path (16 GB SD card location) for downloading any apps.

[Q] QUESTION - SD card with ROM

I have a 16gb SD card that is coming tomorrow, but I got my phone tonight. It came with a 2gb SD card. Can I root and install the ROM on my 2gb SD card and swap in my 16gb SD card tomorrow? Does the ROM install to the internal memory?
It depends what phone and which type you put on. If you have an android native phone once you flash your rom from your sd card you no longer need it so if you swap the card it won't have any problems. If you have a windows phone and use an sd build it'll obviously be on your sd card so if you swap it out, you won't have it any longer once you swap it out. If you use NAND it's on your phone, so you won't have to do anything

[JellyBean] Internal storage, phone storage and SD card

Hello.
Have this new Xperia V with stock Jelly Bean rom, only rooted, and when I got a 32GB sd card, I noticed that it was not using it like it was on my last phone with ICS.
On ICS you only had 2 storages - phone storage and sd card. You could move apps to sd and back to phone.
On JellyBean there is only phone and internal storage (like an emulated sd card), and you can move the apps only between those two. The sd card can not be used for apps.
So my question is, is it possible to merge the phone and internal storage, so it only appears as phone storage, and the sd card to be available as an option to move apps to, Like it was on ICS?
If not, would the downgrade to ICS make only one internal storage, and the other one to be the sd card?
EDIT: Is this thread what I am looking for? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254918
as per attached link u swap sd storage in to internal storage... u need to swap it bro

Internal storage with SD card

Hello,
I upgrade my tablet with marshmallow. I format my SD card with option internal storage. When I go to the settings storage I see the internal storage and my SD card.
I don't understand with this option the internal storage and my SD card must be merged?
Thks for your help
Excuse me my English is bad
It is merged, but shows 2 storages. Basically, apps will be installed on both, with majority of space being used is on the SD card.
Unfortunately, some apps will install on internal storage, so you must move them to the SD card manually.
In this upgrade your internal store will keep app and sdcard will take data. This is old functions but it's fully support now. The best to using sdcard class 10 or I class
