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

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.
If im rooted can i switch sd cards will anything happen to the phone cause i wanna upgrade my sd card because i wanna install roms and partition my sd card.
Im gonna buy a 16gb
yes u can switch....root changes are applied to ur internal mem
thank you very much
I keep seeing references to internal SD card and External SD card, and just now I was using SDMaid and it lists Sdcard (8GB) and External SD card (empty). Is there a second slot for another SD card that I am unaware of.
I put the 8GB card that came with the phone in the slot next to the sim.
I have wondered this for a while and after searching, I decided to pose the question here to get clarification.

No, there is other slot. Some phones, like the Galaxy S and its variants, do have a soldered on internal SD and a slot for an external. The Desire HD(and therefore Inspire) do not. You can in theory partition your SD card and it is supposed to show up that way, but DO NOT DO THIS.
That's what I thought, but I had to check.
hi,
I have 3 storages on my phone.
1- phone storage 500mb
2- internal SD card- 2gb (this SD card is embedded somewhere)
3-external 2nd SD card 16 gb
my phone is rooted and I am able to move any app from phone storage to internal sd card using link2SD app but I would like to remove all to external SD card. It looks like link2SD doesnt recognize this 2nd SD. so how can I do it? what is the best way?
thanks
