drag-and-drop?

Since the Infuse has 16gb of internal memory available, you could just move the gigs worth of data there, switch sd cards, and move it onto the new card.
Or, just mount your Infuse as usb storage (on your pc) and move all of the contents onto your pc desktop into a folder. Change the sd card and reverse the process.

I bought a new 32 gig sd card, I copied the filed on my existing card to a folder on my computer then transferred it to my 32 gig sd card. When I try flashing a rom from my new card it doesn't go thru, if I try flash it from my old sd it go thru fine.
What is happening or what am I doing wrong ?

Its a Sandisk 32 gb SD card. I bought it online cant remember exactly where right now.
What file format did you use to format it?
Not sure I used the formatter in the link above. Is there a specific format and formatter I need to use?

Yeah, I'd like to know as well... I have an 8g card and I did a 512 ext and the rest Fat32... do I need to set the ext partition to ext3 or will that happen automatically depending on the rom...

Okay guys I need to figure this out so here goes again:
I just bought a 32gb scan disk SD card to replace a 8gb I had. When I try flashing a ROM or rebooting in recovery with the 32gb card in the phone it gets stuck on that black screen with the android logo and the triangle. If I use my 8 gb card everything proceeds smoothly. I have formatted it but I get the same result.
Can any one tell me how to fix this problem?
Do you have a card reader on your computer? I had a similar issue when I was using the "quick format" option in windows. Once I did the longer version it worked fine.

Is there a way to install the apps to the internal storage instead of the sd card? I remember awhile ago there was an option on CM that allowed internal/external settings. I can't finder it anymore. My sd card is only 1gb taken from my old G1.

Which rom are you using right now?
If you're on stock (based) ROM, then you can use ADB/terminal to issue the command pm setInstallLocation 1 to force apps to use the internal storage, if on CM7 the option is under CM Settings => Application => Install Location
In CM if we set it to internal will apps install on the internal sd card or on the internal rom (is that the right word im looking for?)?
They'll be in /data/app, so what you would call 'internal ROM'
Thank you that's exactly what I was looking for

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but does anyone know if there's a way to move apps to the internal sd card (not internal ROM)?
I have a 16gb class 10 microsd card but i want to use all that space for music. That 5gb internal sd card is just sitting there, i'd really want to use it for app installation space.
Any clues?
I think you have to change the setting to internal and reinstall the apps

If so you can use the zip from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1144553
Flash the one that says it makes external secondary. It will mount your internal sdcard as /sdcard and will mount your external as a folder /sdcard/_ExternalSD
G2X CM7
Thanks. I think that did the job!

The internal SD card is not removable
No i mean the internal sd the one inside the phone it only has 2gb.i once had a hd2 and changed the internal sd for a bigger one so i though i could do the same with this phone. Is it possible??
Or mount the 16gb as internal.

I really don't know about that but what I did was just change my download path to the external_sd within whatever app I was downloading from

Erm, the phone has built in memory, and then expandable memory from the microSD slot. Use a larger microSD and install your apps or transfer whatever media you have to that instead of the internal memory. You can also set your camera to save images to the microSD instead of the phone's internal memory.

if you flash the cm7 port your external sd will be in your sdcard path like normal, and internal will be under an emmc folder instead. as far as i know thats your only option
We(tfq) are working on separating the sdcard and external sdcard like in cm7...it'll be emmc for internal ans sdcard for external SD
It does take time so waiting is crucial we are working on a lot of stuff for you guys

i dont know but i also have 4.26GB free internal storage.I can download market apps but when i download a apk from internet it says sd card full
That's bad,maybe something's wrong with your system,or sdcard corrupted.try to use another sdcard and see that if you still have that problem.

My computer just passed away, so now I'm left with my HTC One and my iPad. I need format my SD Card without a computer, so I obviously would like to keep some of my data. Is that possible? Can I just partition the SD Card? Help!
Heuu soryy you cant or maybe sd partitioner is existing as an apk
Sent from my LG-P895 using xda premium
I don't believe that you can.
"Formatting", by definition wipes all the data on your SD card.
What about backing it up to a cloud service of your choice,or just email the things you want to keep ....to yourself,at least you can keep your pics an stuff,I do that for my build prop mods and apks I have on my SD when I'm not around my PC.

Try AirDroid , to transfer stuff to your iPad over WiFi
Then partition/format, open up AirDroid again, drop your contents back to phone.
Note: only works if u have a small amount of data to transfer around
