Is there a way to use a space from a SD card to share it with the ram of my fit to make it bigger, like while we use a free space and partition it to use it for installing apps on,
is there is a way? how can we make it, or that is impossible to be done?
here we go again... >:|
@MODERATOR: Y U NO BAN SUCH MORONIC POSTS TOO?
seriously, this is more creeper than listening justin bieber! -________-
Yup, possible through swap partition...
Don't recommend it though...
Typed using a small touchscreen
you can use search button, search is very easy, teejay you should close this
Just put ur swap value to anything above 64mb while partitioning ur SD card.
U can activate ur swap by using terminal emulater,by typing "swap on",on any cm Tom.

Hi guys i was wondering if anyone knows a way for.us to get more internal memory i know theres the fota file thing. But is it posible in any way that we can buy or change the internal memory of this phone and put another one bigger?

Nope.avi
Internal memory is what it is.
Ok, it sucks having this phone with such small memory. I had a vibrant before and when you are used to have phone with big internal memory like i did it sucks big time. I hate every time that im dowloading an app abd give me the error of not having memory available
rught now im just with the default apps and the xda app, ninja jump and another game for my kids. Nothing more :/
Before wiping my phone last week i had 90+ market apps installed. I never got any errors regarding internal storage space. I remember using the fota fix app though.

Something doesn't sound right. I've got over 60 apps installed from the market with no memory issues. Check your internal memory to see if its full.

You'll have to root and apply the fota fix by Matt Henry http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=13504566. Do this and you'll have all the space you need

Also you can use an app like app2sd or one like it so put apps onto the so card. I use this for games because they take up the most storage space. I use link2sd and use ext4.

Are you running a GB Rom? I had issues with link2sd and ext4 with apps disappearing back when the first GB leaks came out and we had all the busybox ext4 conversion problems. Since then I have kept away from it, but would love to use it again if it is running smoothly with the newer leaks / roms.

Have u tried App2SD app?... it will automatically change the location for the new installed apps to the SD card instead of the internal memory.
Ofc some apps just need to stay in the internal memory but, just to mention, i have 114 apps installed, 91 in the SD the rest in the internal memory (including the stock apps)

I am on octane with link2sd with no problems, there is a setting that you turn off so all of your apps don't go to sd. This way you can choose
Figured it would be good to see how much interest there is in it so maybe a dev will see the point of taking it on.....
Whether I personally use enough apps to fill up internal memory or not, A2EXT is a nice option to have and I miss it. I remember in the past, when implented properly, I had apps on ext and when I would install a rom the apps I had on ext would already be waiting for me on first boot rather than having to wait for them to redownload from the market or restore from Titanium. My vote is yes, if a dev is willing to spend some time to bring that feature to us it can only enrich our experience and would be welcome.

while we are wishing
Id prefer a data2ext that also takes none vital system app files and places them on a partition in the sd card, and ability to make the extension around 2 or 4 gigs, for those of us with 32 gig sdcards that can afford the lost space. with dual mount sd card function should never have to worry about removing or mounting the sd card to where its unreadable to the system. thats my vote
I've never really used A2SD even with my G1, however, having all my apps on a fresh install does seem like a nice feature. Personally, the internal memory is more than enough for me.
I guess its more of a nuisance than anything though (regarding installing apps on fresh boots).
Yes.
1) Make easier backups with A2EXT.
2) A2EXT loads faster than the laggy A2FAT.
3) You can always resize the partitions via Gparted.
4) Unlocks the full potential of Android devices.
Anyone who has an argument against A2EXT should stick with the iPhone.
Absolutely A2EXT,Data2EXT is very nice. being able to have all the apps and data ready to go for the same 15-40 apps with data i use on every rom.
depending on which rom im using equals more or less, but that would make things alot faster.
but its still fun individually installing each one.
Ive had this phone for a couple months now and have been doing more reading and research and have just begun to flash all the roms. having a few of them now, it would be nice to have A2EXT,DATA2EXT.
I thank everyone for their hard work and have a great day!! (baby cries gotta run)
sorry for the newbish question, but in Settings->Applications->Manage Applications, what does the "Move to SD Card" option do? Is that only to move the app's data to the SD Card? I've never used it before.

Cyanogen explains it best. A2SD is where you move it to a part of the SD card formatted to EXT format. What Google calls "A2SD" is the result of a symlink-at-best feature that forces a placeholder for each app on the phone's internal memory with the added drawback that (unlike the real A2SD), when mounted to the hard drive, the apps on the Fat partition are unusable.
There was actually a "no" vote? What does it matter to the people who don't want it?

I'm surprised people actually care enough to vote "no." If you don't want A2EXT, let the grown-ups who know how to set it up partition their own SD cards and run the apps off of the EXT partition.
ok so i looked in the forums and from the looks of it cm9 n cm10 and all other roms cant or wont make a work arounf for the inability to move app to the ext sd card i read that their someone making some kind of script but i am an idiot and cant understand but i do know how to read and follow instructions, but i dont see how one can apply these work around for the ext sd card fix unless their is a fix in the works and im jus being impaitent, i know people may think 4gb is alot but the fact this tablet can handle big gaming app it takes up alot of space fast. if have a memory card only for only multimedia, it kind of defeat android purpose for innovation when it was the only phone capable of putting apps on a ext sd card, any advise would be appreciated thanks..

I'm rooted, and downloaded GLtoSD (GL2SD) from the market.
It's a 1-2-3 app. Install the app, download the contents of the game/app, load gl2sd, open the menu, click move app, then select the app you want to move, if it's able to be moved it can be. I love it.
I looked into other apps, and other solutions, and this one was the least complex of them all. Sorry I do not have a link handy, I been drinking a bit lol
Been in your boat though, and wanted to help. Give it a shot!

Hi, just been having a read through the posts on this phone, My Mrs has this and there's a significant lack of memory available.
It apparently has 512RAM, however the user useable part of this seems more like 64. She's moved as many apps as possible to the SD card, but still keeps getting errors for lack of available memory.
Is there anyway around this? I've seen some threads about apps that will extend the ram to your SD card giving you more available.
Will a new ROM give any help on this? or is it a case of new phone
She's only using Facebook, Text, Phone, occasional internet on stock browser, and that's about it at the moment, but others would be nice for her. Not a good experience for her introduction to Android IMHO.
Is the phone already rooted?
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
Not yet, Its still stock as it's the Mrs phone and she doesn't tamper.
All that's been done is she's moved all the apps she could to run from SD card.
Well,, first of all.. try to differ between RAM and internal memory. They're two different things.
RAM (Random Access Memory) is the memory for ur phone processing. It consist ur applications that currently working, i.e. when u open message, the RAM decreases since ur message app use some space of memory to work. when u open another app, the RAM will decrease again.
Internal Memory here is the space for ur apps storage. When u installed some app, it take space in order to succeeded when install. Each time u installed an app, the space will be decreased.
I guess that when u look into that phone, that 64 of memory there is an internal memory, not the RAM which u supposed to think. So, please notify it first. Is it really the RAM or just Internal Memory.
to know your RAM and Internal Memory space, u can access like this.
For Internal Memory : Setting > Applications > Manage Applications > All. then look into the bottom bar for the space of internal memory.
For RAM : Setting > Applications > Manage Applications > Running. then look into the bottom bar for ur RAM space.

I'll get all the info off the phone tonight - if I remember.... :silly:
However please bear with me, being new to technology, I've only worked with it since 1998, but RAM = Random Access Memory. I've never heard of Raw. same as ROM is Read Only Memory, and EPROM is Electronically Programmable ROM (IE you can flash it.)

Hello,
I have an XPERIA U and I'm running out of memory (no SD cart slot). I noticed the storage is partitioned: 2go for app storage and 4go for data (which is full). Is there a way to partition it so I have, let's say 750 mo for apps and the rest for data(music,files,etc).
I have seen a lot of tutorials but everytime, they're intended to be applied on a specific phone. Maybe I'm not using the correct term to designate the "mass storage" partition.
Thank you in advance!

Im thinking you mean 2GB for apps and 4GB for data?You need to clean out your sd card,by repartitioning,backup what you want to keep,but the way it looks right now,theres no way to do that at the moment,try scouring the forums and see if theres an alternative... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1515
Oh ok...
Is there a way to move big game files (download by the app after the installation) to the app storage?
Edit: I managed to free 1,5gb using DiskUsage (looks like I can't provide external links, 10 post limit)! It provides a really nice diagram of your storages, allowing you to see useless files or big folders
