Increase internal memory using sd card? - Sony Xperia L

Hello
I just bought an Xperia L.
internal memory disappoints me.
it's 1.57 n 4gbplus sd card.
can I use sd card for game data as 4gb
isn't enough for me. While buying I thought it'll be 6 n sd. I have 16gb card. How to I install three to four games of about 1.2 gb each? (4.8gb)

There is a tutorial on the forum how to swap internal with external memory which will make your 16 Gb SD Card as a Internal memory.
But be careful and do not format the internal one (will be know as a external after swap) as this will brick your phone. Just swap, do not formate and here you go

link2SD worths a look too

I know Link2SD, it's cool but I am not sure if i will like to use that. I do not have a very good experience with it

afaik the only difficulty you could find is the sdcard partitioning, but it can be easily performed from the recovery

Thank you for being detailed. I exactly know what are you talking about. It takes just two minutes to setup Link2sd if you are rooted.
The reason I do not like Link2Sd is that once you factory reset your phone, sometimes it corrupts your system files. It happened with me a couple of times. It's just I had a bad experience with it.
Cheers again

I repartitioned my internal SD card and my userdata to use for cm12. I used it, and then I decided to flash stock. While flashing, flashtool gave me an error.
After that, only thing that works are Flashmode, Fastboot and Recovery with adb.
I can't flash anything on recovery, as it says E:/ can't be mounted.
I also tried fastboot flash system system.sin, but it failed.
I took the advice of an xda member to use gparted, but my device isn't recognized, or so I think.
Please help me, I have no warranty over this device, and I also have no knowledge.

I be very brief because of my exam tomorrow. Google /Check XDA posts/ quote me back after google/XDA
Get flashtool for Sony Xperia
http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
Install drivers from flash tool
Download ftf for your phone c2105 or 104 . check settings about for this information.(XDA Xperia l general section) @Joel16 he has wonderful guide for all this
Use flash tool to flash stock ROM. Clear portion/cache etc (google how to use it)
See if that works!
Or yoy can use Sony's own tool PC companion(find on Sony mobile website) to repair your phone!
Next Tim use folder mount app to install many big games to sdcard1.
Good luck

Is there any way to increase my Device memory(2gb) by merging it with Internal memory(4gb)? Even though I have 191mb free in device memory,the google maps and all are not getting installed in my rooted phone.

Boot into recovery and use the options there to partition & format your SD card from your phone.
And if you paid $50 for 16GB card, you got ripped off.

Yes, this is the way :good:
Just learned I could partition my SD and restore it through CWM. Thanks to the OP and first reply.
It said that can't mount sdcard.can't read sdcard
Put the SD card in your computer, and use this to format it.

Although this is possible, and many noobs here will do it, I cannot advise doing this as the risks of hard-bricking your phone are very high.
For example:
You do the swap and then factory reset = Hard Brick
or
You do the swap and then Wipe Internal Data = Hard Brick.
Either way it's not worth it, even with a class 10 sdcard you'll notice how much slower your phone becomes.

I couldn't agree more. A friend of mine has done it with his Ace. Hard bricked.
What I did( Ihave a 32 GB SD card, so yeah), was shrinking my Fat32 partition, and making an ext2 partiton of 2,5 gb. With the help of Link2SD you can move 99% of apps to this partition. I have 110 apps, and my internal memory has 1,2 GB left, and my phone memory 551 mb.
No performance loss, and even a little (may be placebo, I don't know) improvement.
Partitioning your SD card may decrease the the life time, but I find it very effective and handy.
Have a nice day!

hello there sir, I'm interested in your way of doing this, so would you explain it in a more detailed way? I don't really get it...
what do you mean by 'shrinking my Fat32 partition' ?
and what do you mean by 'making an ext2 partition of 2,5 gb' ?
you also stated that your sd card is 32 gb, is this your internal SD card or external SD card?
what's the difference between link2SD from the other apps such as app2sd? and fyi i'm using titanium backup (not pro) and it CANNOT move the apps to my micro sd card (ext sd card)
thank you~

We're talking about the external SD here.
Storage is accessed by partitions. See a partition as a little chunk of code that defines how the storage is used.
A normal micro SD without any modifications will have 1 FAT 32 partition.
What you could do is using a tool like Mini Tool Partition Wizard(Windows only), to shrink the existing FAT32 partition, so there is unallocated space left. Every size is possible, but the unallocated space has to be smaller than the FAT 32 partition. Please note that a Class 10 SD is preferred, or at least Class 6. Lower classes can't handle the app loading very well, and the apps will sooner start to lag.
Now you can create a new partition, since there is unallocated space left. You will use Ext2, Ext3 or Ext4, it doesn't really matter, but Ext2 works 99℅ of the time, so use that one. These are all part of the Linux file system, as your phone memory is. Your micro SD will act like an extra phone memory. But it will be slower, since flash will always be faster than the maximum R/W speed of a SD card.
(Root access is required)
You now have 2 partitions, one FAT 32 and one Ext.... Insert the micro SD card in the phone and download Link2SD from the Play Store. Open it and it will prompt you that it has detected a second partition. Grabt Superuser rights. Select the kind, and let it generate the needed information. Reboot and you're good to go! You can now move any user app to the external SD.
(Way more extensive tutorials are available. Just Google: how to use link2sd? I'm on my phone now, so sorry)
Oh, and the difference between apps like App2SD and Link2SD, is that with the former you can only move apps to the internal SD, and not the external, micro SD. The latter does give you this option, but root is required.
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any question!

With Ext I mean Ext2, Ext3 or Ext4. These are Linux file systems. Since Android is based on Linux, Android recognizes this Et2/3/4 partition as a storage where it can write data. A little help from link2SD is needed, but it works fine. If you're still interested, follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2142844
It's quite easy to follow.

Hi,
You guys saying about hard brick possibilities. I had swapped my External with Internal. Now after seeing your posts I am thinking of reverting back to normal. Would it cause any issues ? I am not sure how much it would improve the performance though. I am quite sure the lag I have sometime is because of higher RAM usage [I have more than 120 apps installed including games such as PES (more than 150 MB) utilizing 8 GB external as Internal] . I am on Xperia Miro

First, swap them as they were than flash stock ftf. It's highly possible to hard brick your J if you don't swap them back.
Good Luck.

[Q] Swap internal with external SD card?

Hi, is it possible to swap the internal sd card with an external one? I have a rooted Sony Xperia J with locked bootloader. It is running Jelly Bean. I have a SanDisk Micro SD. Help?
How do I do it?
doperthancoke said:
Yes it is possible. But I recommend you not do that because it is quite dangerous, as it might hardbrick your phone.

Ok, thanks for the fast reply. So, how do I go around doing it?
Ok, but...
doperthancoke said:
Well.... The thing is, you'll be fine as long as you dont mess up. But its very easy to mess up. For example: if you wipe internal storage while using the mod, your phone is hardbricked. Another note: Various users have ran into problems while swapping internal and external sd (disappearing, corrupted apps, and your phone and apps might become sluggish if your sd card read/write speed is not fast enough,etc....).
There's a way around this, but its not quite the same thing. If you have large apps that store its data on internal sd (examples: games like Asphalt or large dictionaries), you can use apps such as "FolderMount" or "GL2sd" to move the apps' data to external sd and link it to internal sd (You're fooling the system into thinking that the data is in the internal sd, when its actually in the external sd). Of course, by using this method, you will not actually be swapping external sd with internal sd. And the apps are not moved, just the DATA of the apps.
If you don't care about the risks and the method I suggested above isn't good enough for you, and you still want to do it, search "vold.fstab swap external sd and internal sd xperia j" on the forum.

Ok, I kinda screwed up. I did what they told me to, but when I rebooted my phone, my external SDcard was not mounted and my internal one was un-mounted! Hence, I have access only to the apps in my phone storage... I did a backup and tried to flash the stock firmware but Flashtool told me that a folder could not be found and flashing failed... I still can use my phone, but alot of apps are gone. ;_; I can't even access Whatsapp! Any advice? Also, I do not have access to Root Explorer, and when I plug in my phone to my computer, 1 error message comes out: The process android.process.media has stopped. Any help? Plus, are there any good suggestions for common and cheap smartphones? Thanks for helping!

[sOLVED] XPERIA L C2104 hangs after 1-2 minutes of boot.

Hi!! I tried everything, flashed stock firmware which worked for me every time. But now the phone just hangs after a minute of boot. I can see status bar and nav buttons but its black screen in main screen. I am unable to turn on developer tools because of this so can't even root phone or anything. Please help.
I used 'root external 2 internal sd' application from playstore earlier which caused the phone to not boot at all. So I flashed stock firmware. And now this problem
The application showed 16 GB internal and 16 GB external when I tried it.
I just tried to quickly go and check storage. It says 0 in internal storage and nothing as external. Can it be because of this?? Any fix? :/

May be your partitions are not read properly or they have become corrupt
. Do you flash the full ftf along with the wipe data option turned on ?
If not then do try this.

TERMiNAL EMULATOR - Android

Hi goodafternoon! I just want to ask if im doing this right:
I want to install apk directly to my external SD Card because my internal only has 2gb of memory.
I tried searching for some tweaks and i found one using terminal emulator, i put the commands and it says 2[external].
Is it succesfull? And why there is a WARNiNG sign, im afraid of that.
up please

When i install link2sd, and after that can i install apk files into my external sd card? Sorry for my bad english.
The
Code:
[COLOR="RoyalBlue"][/COLOR]pm set-install-location
set to external sd works for apps that you can move directly to sd without **root, in phone's package manager. You get root and try rom toolbox or link2sd or there are several other apps to force move an app to sdcard

Yes mini partition is best option for making partition...
But u can also use link2sd without second partition...
But if you don't use second partition.. Then only little problem occurs..
That the apps u linked to sdcard card becomes unavailable when u connect ur device to pc.. Because sd card mounted on pc...
This can be overcome by using second partition....
But I think its not a big problem...
One thing you can also make partition using ur recovery..
