I currently don't have a SD card but will be buying one. Will I be able to use the G2x's internal memory (5 gigs) along with the external SD card? So for example, will I be able to store music on the internal memory AND the external sd card?
Yes, you don't have to use one OR the other. They can both work in conjunction with the other.
external storage is mounted on /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard while internal storage is mounted on /mnt/emmc by cm7 default. dunno if stock does the same

In Kies, I show Internal Storage and it has the CWM Backup and Titanium Backup folders. Kies also shows external storage which seems the same size as my removable SD card.
On the phone, if I use Astro and browse SD card I see the CWM and Titanium folders under SDCARD.
I am totally confused - what is Kies showing as Internal and what is external and why doesn't it match Astro's SDCARD view?
Because they are different programs, and the phone has a built in internal 16 gigabyte sd card. Also a slot for a removeable sd card up to 32 gigabytes
So are there different device names for the internal and external SD cards? How to I reference each SD?
Internal sd card is one that comes with phone and external sd is when you put micro sdhc. And to refresh you can go into setting and storage and there you can see both internal and external. You can go to my computer and see both there as well.

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'm on the Concept Marshmallow build 3657.
I chose the option to combine my 64GB SD card so it can be used seamlessly with the internal storage (ie- not as portable).
But when I plug my phone into the PC, I only see the ~12GB of internal storage available. Also in a file explorer on the phone, I only see the 12GB internal storage.
In "Storage & USB" I see the internal storage is almost full, 11.00GB used of 11.57GB. And the SD card is listed there, only 739MB used of 56.7GB. I have some apps installed on it.
But how can I either: move photos, audio etc to the SD card from the internal storage (SD doesn't show up in file explorers). I thought the SD card would act as a seamless extension of internal storage, but that doesn't seem to be happening here.
Any advice on what I can do?
I want to keep my files in SD card . Also I want to move apps to SD card at the same time.
I have tried creating 2 partition in SD card using aparted app. Both were in exfat format (means portable). Then I went to settings > storage and formatted one of the partitions as internal storage. But unfortunately both partitions became internal instead of one.
Look inside here:
Make your SD card Semi-adopted. Works great!
EDIT: MARSHMALLOW ONLY I hate the small amount of internal memory, but I don't want to make my ENTIRE SD of 128GB Adopted and unremovable. So I found this post describing how to make your SD only partially Adopted by splitting the partition in...
