How to make partition on SD card of Android phone which allow to install application on the SD card memory instead of internal memory.

So the thing is, I have Acer z120 it has 1.17GB of phone memory that I can use to save any files and I notice also that data files of other applications are stored here after installation. Then when that phone memory is almost full, I used a app called Link2SD. My SD card has ext4 2nd partition and used the Link2SD to move all my apps to the 2nd partition of my SD card. But there are still other data files of apps that did not move to the 2nd partition of my SD card.
My main concern is: Is there a way that I can expand the phone memory or at least make my phone store all the data files of applications I install in my device to the 2nd partition of my SD card?
Hello, I got the app called Link2SD app which allows you to move apps to your external sd card. However, when I tried to move apps to SD card, it says that there was no second partitionn in my sd card and my external storage is emulated by the internal storage. What that means? Also, I went to recovery mode to try to partition the external sd card, it shows me ext size (128M, 256M, 512M, 1024M, 2048M, 4096M). What that sizes actually mean? Thanks.
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
Hi there. I'm using a Xiaomi Redmi 1S with 16GB SD card. Previously I had partitioned my SD card with 2nd partition set to FAT type, which I used to link apps to SD card using Link2SD. My SD card could be read fine by my laptop when I plugged it in to my laptop with a USB connector (i.e. I could open both my internal storage as well as external SD card storage). Recently I had to reformat the SD card due to some issues with my phone, and I hence deleted the old partition and created a new 2nd partition in EXT2 format instead. The 2nd partition is readable on my phone and works with Link2SD to link apps to SD card like before, however when I plug into my laptop, I cannot see the SD card storage. I can only see the internal memory storage. Please advise how to fix this, if possible without reformatting, as I am unable to move files to and from the SD card storage if I can't see it. Thank you!
My phone is always out of storage space, and whenever I try to migrate my data to my sd card, my internal storage becomes even fuller. I installed a custom rom today, and formatted the sd card as internal storage again and copied some music to it, but it went to the internal storage instead. Help
What are the exact specs of the SD card?
