wud also be usefull if there wernt a billion diff sections tht apply to the subject matter aswell :3

Well you get the solutions in the ROMs.
Mainly A2SD or DATA2SD. Just look at most ROMs and they have these options. Some SD cards can be faster than the internal memory, so you might not notice any speed differences.

Not interested in faster just more memory and any roms with that and htc sense?

I use App2SD. if the app allows for external storage this app recognizes it, and allows you to move it pretty easily.

I've heard of people running out of internal storage and I really can't believe that they actually use all of the apps they've installed. Simple solution: if you haven't used an app in a couple months you can probably safely uninstall it. There's no penalty for reinstalling it later if you need it in a pinch. Multiply this times tens of apps and you could gain significant free storage.

Move GTA 3 world files to ext sd?

Anyone know how to move the world files, like the 658 something MB of files to my external SD? They recently added a way to download it to the SD but i bought the game when that option was not in place. Anyone?

Have you checked in application management to see if you have the option to move it to your SD card from there? If they now support it, any update you have received for the game should have made the option available to you.
Yes but that does not move the whole game to the external sd. It just moves the application that access the world files

I'm not personally familiar with it, but I know people like an app called "titanium backup" . From what I know it is good at moving things to the SD card that normally couldn't be placed there. Look into that I guess.?
Thanks, I'll try that

Just wanted to add, your phone will have to be rooted for this... But if you really want that space freed off of your system storage, then rooting is usually your only option to do a LOT of things. I'm interested in knowing how the OP made out?
Im already rooted, im running custom firmware and kernals

Wasn't being sarcastic. Lol. It was a thought. Since that post I've experimented with titanium a little. It can't move all apps, but can move some. So how did OP make out with the file move project?

Phone Suggestion - Processing Power and Multi-Tasking Key?

Looking to get an Android soon (early April 2012 Latest).
My only reason for getting it is to run 2 apps at the same time. The Eye-Fi app, which will connect to handheld camera via direct wi-fi mode, and transfer pics in real time to the Android. Each pic - 1.2 - 5 MB.
2nd App - Camerasync or some equivalent, which will resize pics as they arrive in the camera roll, and upload to FTP/Dropbox/Flickr, etc.
Running these both on iPhone 4 triggers one of the apps to close, due to memory/processing issues.
So, my desire is to get a dual-core or quad-core Android, and use it for this.
Would you guys have any suggestions for a device used primarily for this purpose?
Notes:
Battery life not an issue, will be working with multiple charge packs throughout the day.
Would prefer 4g.
Would prefer Verizon, USA.
Would prefer a SD slot so I can swap out 32gig cards.
Want to make sure the dual core is actually functioning, that having a DC chip will enhance this process. I've read repeatedly that dual/quad cores on the phones don't do much because no apps are designed to tap into their functionality.
Any feedback appreciated. Thanks!
Get a Nexus from Verizon. Top notch specs. Should do exactly what you're looking for.
If that doesn't do it for you, list your options.
just for closure....

[Q] GT-P3113 microsd card question

Officially the Galtab 2 7.0 wifi only supports a max of a 32GB microsd card, but my question is this. Has anyone tried a 64GB one? If so what brand(s) and class? I know many laptops state they only support 8gb ram, but then you find out that quite a few were only supporting that at the time of release as the biggest mainstream production memory was 4GB SoDimm's and 8GB modules were extremely expensive, but they support more unofficially. I think I even saw that my HTC Incredible will run a 64GB card but the specs state only a 32GB. Any information would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help and time.

Yay search function! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643254
good day.
I was searching this and the development forums and for some reason didn't see them there, I was going to delete this thread and ask in the multi question thread further down, but I can't seem to find the delete button, only after searching the xda general threads did I see it states that only mods can delete threads.
I do appreciate your Exuberant appreciation of the search function though, apparently we ltrnftp's do not know how to properly form a search and are overwhelmed by the massive amount of results sometimes. hehe
BUT honestly, I do appreciate the link to the correct thread. I need to go over there and point out that the USB adapter hubs sold on ebay like the one I bought http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Adapter...axy-Tab-2-10-1-8-9-7-7-7-0-Plus-/271127664707 do not work even when powered except to show as a USB device is attached but no storage devices or cards etc.

Internal memory full on S3

Hello, I know this question has been asked before but it has been for other phone models and some years ago so the advice given may no longer be the best. Pretty much I have flashed many roms in the past, but I always erase the downloads when I am going to no longer use it. My vzw s3 has 12.05GB of total space available. I have only 1.3GB left to use. I don't know what is causing the space to be used up because my apps only take up 1.2gb, pics 1.2gb, downloads only 1gm and the rest only takes up about another 2 gigs. I only have one backup as well. So I should have atleast 4-5 GB of space free. Is there anyway I can just wipe all the files that are taking up space? Or any suggestions? I don't mind wiping everything off my phone as long as it doesn't ruin my root and brick my phone. Thanks in advanced

[Completed] LG L70 Dual SD to Internal

Hi. I'm new on XDA and what has brought me to this forum is a crap about my device storage, since I know REALLY nothing about smart devices .
As the title shows, my smartphone is a LG L70 Dual, with only 1,5 GB of free to use storage. It's an old and weak phone, however, I do not plan to buy another anytime soon.
I bought a new SD card and rooted it only trying to solve the problem, like creating links to the ExternalStorage, and other ways that included some apps. But I found no success, primarily because of my lack of knowledge. What I intended was to expand, link, or invert the storages, using the SD to install apps.
What I'm asking is some help to try to get what I want, but in some way I still understand what to do and have accuracy assurance and confidence that the method is safe if properly applied. Safe for the mobile and the SD. But I have no fear that the method is difficult, as long it be realizable and and whoever help me have patience for my ignorance.
Woah! I wrote too much ... I hope that someone help me, I really need this. Thanks
