Im posting this here because there is no section for pantech burst. Not sure why. There isnt even a pantech section at all lol. Anyway i rooted it and for some reason when i try to move stuff to sd using link2sd i get a message saying insufficient_storage. but i have a 2gb sd in that has nothing on it. i tried 2 different sd cards in case maybe something was up with the card. Titanium gives an ok but then doesnt hold. In other words it says move was successful click ok. But then you click out and go back and the move was never done. Anyone know what could be up?
Idea!

Why don't you try a factory reset (if you are able to). Rooting your device could have caused the problem.
If this still doesn't work, you have voided your warranty because you rooted your device. Go and get it repaired (last resort)
um you cant move apps to sd unless you root. Well besides apps that let you of course. Ive never heard of rooting causing this issue. I can still move apps that let you normally. I just cant move anything you should be able to after root when using link2sd app and titanium backup. those 2 apps arent moving apps for some reason which is my issue. And they should be moving the apps ive tried because i have rooted 3 other phones and never ran into this issue even trying to move these same ones on other phones using the same ways of link2sd and or titanium. I bought the phone second hand so im not worried about warranty anyway.

So I updated to the leaked Samsung 2.2 Froyo. I am trying to move apps to the sd card and I am getting an error. "Failed to move application. Not enough memory".
I have seen demos/reviews with this function working. I am also making sure I try it with apps that are compatible with the feature.
Anyone have a clue as to whats going on here.
Other than that, I love being a new Android user, ported over from the apple world. Captivate made my 3g look foolish.
Thanks in advance for any help guys.

When installing a program it will pop up, this is Apps2SD, do you want to move. Or you can see it in manage applications, select application > Move to SD is highlighted
You have to be careful with it because that silly media scanner will run and disable you sd functions. Example. You have a program that starts up when your phone starts you will get a FC because the media scanner is running.
Good to have you by the way.
I'm getting the same message, but it was working before.
I flashed a ROM and enabled lag fix. However, when I went back to stock, I forgot to disable the lag fix.
I'm back to the leaked 2.2, but I still can't move apps to the SD card. There is plenty of memory free.
Is there any way around this?
Thanks!

Have you tried doing a master reset to remove the the lag fix or gotten the app from the market app2sd?
I tried a master clear using Odin, but I haven't tried a master reset. How is that done?

Ok I know a dumb question but do you have enough rom on your SD card? Try the apps2sd app from the market
No worries, I know you have to ask.
My SD card has 12.83GB free.
I did try using the apps2sd, but I get the same message, that there isn't enough memory.
I would say that there is an issue with the leaked rom. I would try a custom rom and see if it happens, if it is still an issue I would copy the stuff off your card and reformat it to see if that is an issue
I actually got the message the first time I tried a custom ROM. When I went back to 2.2 the problem went away, but I hadn't tried the lag fix.
When I tried another customer ROM today, I got the message again, but this time a tried the lag fix.
I forgot to disable it when I went back to stock, then to 2.2.
I did reformat the internal SD card, didn't help. That's why I turned to the forums. I'm all out of ideas.
OMG I am stupid lol. The apps to SD is for moving the APPS to an EXTERNAL sd card not the internal sd
LOL, no worries.
I don't want to waste my time, but would it be worth a try to:
1. Flash back to stock.
2. Install Clockwork recovery
3. Install customer ROM again.
4. Enable lag fix.
5. Disable lag fix.
6. Flash back to stock.
7. Master clear
8. Install 2.2 again?

Only if you have enough room on your external sd (micro sd plugged into the phone)
I don't currently have one installed.
It must be a file system issue. Is there anyway to rebuild the stock file system? Or is that supposed to happen when I flash back to stock?
By the way, thanks for your help on this.

No prob, but here is the deal. This only works for external SD card in 2.2 2.1 didnt have this option at all. So unless you insert an external SD card it is not gonna work.
OK, now I'm the stupid one. I didn't even think of putting my SD card back in! I always take it out when I flash back to stock because the media scanner takes so long.
Anyway, I put it back in, now I can move to SD.
So, my next question is, where does it put it on that SD card? I looked, and I don't see anything other than my music.

To tell the truth I dont remember really, I have not needed to move anything to my external sd in a long time, what are you using to look at your SD card?
Root explorer. It's not really that important, it's mostly just curiosity.
ok i have a samsung galaxy stellar / sch-1200 from verizon, cant find a forum on it so i figured this would be closest hopefully.....
it reads internal storage as "sdcard01" and i also have an 8gb external sd card. the phone itself does not have an option to move app 2 sd card in the application manager.
ive tried app's via the playstore and still no avail. app2sd and others..
my question is.. is there an option somewhere in the phone that i cannot seem to find or a way to get it to default save items/pics/mp3s/ect to the actual sd card??
ive looked all over to try to find out some similar problems and cant seem to find any info besides actually swapping the external to internal and vice versa using ADB.... i do not have this phone rooted and wont until warranty is up. if anyone could point me in the right direction or inform me on how to change the storage settings id really appreciate it.
thanks in advance.
Wrong phone and carrier... at least you got the Samsung part.

no not yet.. i will be rooting it in the next couple months but as of right now its not unforunately. its like the phone doesnt even recognize the sd card it in even though it is mounted and reads pictures and music that i manually put on there. but the application manager doesnt even have an option to "move to sd"
I don't know. Maybe it is mounting as read only. That is what happens on the xoom

shouldnt be.. i can move individual files that i have downloaded, its the weirdest things ive ever came across..
my og droid was rooted and my htc inspire, they both even before rooting had the option to move apps to the sd card. the phone has 2gbs of internal space so its not like its worse than the previous just blows my mind and i have no idea how i could maybe change it to having the external card being the primary storage. under Astro it says there are 2 sd cards... i know its thinking that the internal storage is the first/primary card. just dunno how to get it to switch over i guess..
thats the best way i can think to describe the situation..
For moving pics and music and such I would think a file browser like es file explorer or something would let you move from one storage to the other. I dunno that you would need root access for that. But apps are a different story.

yea the file parts im not real worried about. i am able to move them and everything.
i might be not able to really explain it the way im wanting to. its reading like there are 2 sd cards when there is only one in the phone. so the primary storage is to the internal (fake sd card) so it wont move apps to the sd card to free up internal space. thats my assumption anyway. so i thought there might be a way to change the primary storage but i havent found a way to. if that makes sense.
yeah there are external2internal swaps or whatever but I'm pretty sure you're gonna need root and custom recovery to do anything like that.

Okay, so I'm in a lot of pain. I was having some serious trouble with my Samsung s4 and decided to hard reset it thinking my pictures and contacts were on my SD CARD. They weren't. And nothing was backed up to Google or my Verizon cloud. I contacted Verizon. They sent me to Samsung and vice versa. I know my files aren't permanently deleted. The feds could easily recover them you know? Those pictures meant a lot to me. So I desperately did research on how to recover my hard reset contacts and photos.. I downloaded multiple softwares that didn't work and I also came upon rooting my phone. Can someone please help me? Help me root my phone and recover my pictures? I don't want to unlock my bootloader and wipe my phone a second time. I sobbed like a two year old thinking they're gone forever.. :crying: :crying: :crying:
Why do you want to root your phone?

...Because I lost all of my important pictures and contacts.. I read on here that if you root your phone you can retrieve all of those lost files..
Unfortunately I don't think you can. You can retrieve them and everything else if they were on SD card. Where is that thread that you saw?

At the beginning he said "Did you delete all your SDCard data?" SD card not your phone memory, I don't think it's possible but SD card is easy.

but it also talks about external memory. "External memory would allow you to use data recovery tools that scan for deleted files and return them to a usable state. These tools work because most operating systems don't go through and set all of those 1's and 0's to just 0's when you delete a file. Usually the operating system will just delete the reference pointer in the index that says that a file exists with such-and-such name and it's located at this position on the hard disk / memory location." Is there no way I can get this stuff back?
You have a Samsung, either your bootloader is unlocked or it isn't, in the case that it is unlocked you could go ahead and root and it probably wouldn't take much effort. Not much else we can tell you about rooting your phone without a model number though.

External Memory is SDCARD what you want is Internal Memory, and it's pretty hard if not impossible to regain the stuff back from Internal Memory.

I did a lot of research and I keep stumbling upon Dr. Fone android recovery.. it's saying it searches internal and external. I'm driving myself up the wall here. Yikes. I wish I were more tech savvy.

Yeah hopefully we will understand more about Android and be able to get really deep into it. Anyways sorry you didn't gain them back
The problem is as I stated on the title.
I don' remember everything about my phone because this started happening (or I'm just realising this) about 4 months or something after I rooted it. I rooted my phone with magisk and I'm 100% sure I used a guide here, which was very helpful. I have space on both my sd and phone. And by apps on sd, I mean the way you carry the app to sd without any root abilities, you know the phone says there is no space carry it blah blah. However, when I use link2sd and link all of it except the prior part, it can still update. I'm not using any custom rom, and don't really have another problem aside from this.
I appreciate all the help.
WELL THIS WEBSITE IS ****ING USELESS THANKS FOR NOTHING
Minor update I'm no longer really needing a solution to this problem although it would be very helpful for everyone if one was found as I'm sure this has been a problem too many people at this point)
I'm over here trying to root my S6 Lite tablet without a computer just a bloody cell phone and I am oh so close but I have no way of reformatting this SD card cuz xxxxx Android wants to put it as FAT32 for god knows what reason it's an 8 gig SD card and I've even tried reformatting it in both devices I have same result Android just being stupid and I am at the end of my rope here cuz I have not been able to find any apps once so ever that actually allow me to reformat an SD card with a format of my choosing or at least one that's usable
Now please tell me that someone on this xxxxx website has a solution to this problem because once again the weird stuff I'm doing has led me down a path no one else has seemingly took
(And if anyone's asking why I'm rooting this tablet it's because Android 12 works like crap)
Mod Edit: Some content removed.
I am kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place as I have not been able to figure out any method of formatting this SD card with something usable because Android is for some unknown reason only formatting it with FAT32 despite using two different devices to attempt to format it normally and I have not been able to find a single application that exists that does not require root permissions that would allow me to change the format of the SD card I have legitimately spent like three or four hours now trying to figure something out and have come up with nothing please someone here help
I'm just going to add this year that I obviously don't have access to a computer or this wouldn't be a problem
Root your phone and use twrp to change filesystem.
But in your case when you don't want to root. Unplug SD card and connect with adapter to your pc.
Go to this computer and right click on the SD card
Click format And select filesystem
Quick format is fine
Format and when finished
Put SD card back.
Done

Both of those are a problem because I don't have a computer to use and I am trying to root my tablet and the only other device I have is an a20 cell phone that's not rooted either and I am so close but I can't Flash the modded firmware because Android is formatting the SD card with xxxx FAT32 so besides this SD card the only other option I have is to attempt to do the flash over wireless ADB I mean seriously if I had a bloody computer I would have been done like 3 days ago
