Hello,
I've installed GammaRon without partitionning internal SD card. But now, I want to do it for the space allowed for apps is too small.
My question is : can I just jump to the partinionning scheme describe in the installation guide or must I completely re-install GammaRom for partitionning ?
Thanks for your answers.

Hi all
I would like to intsall all apps to my SD Card, because the internal memory of this phone isn't so much. I would like to use my SD Card for default install location. Is there any way to do it?
please refer to this post, everything you need for chacha
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255107
ps: unless we have a CM7 rom for chacha, or we have to move the apps to SD card after installation
The suggested Low memory actions there are not looking good to me. Factory data reset will clear all my accounts and setup and one day i'll get the message again.
I want to solve the problem, not to find an alternate solution
So basically I still would like to install all my apps on my SD Storage.
ps
Thanks for the thread.
I couldnt find a dedicate thread for Vodafone Smart tab 2. So I guess I ll post this here maybe will help some people.
This tablet is basicaly a Lenovo A2107 (A2107A_A404_010_002_120913_VODA)
- with single sim slot ( call feature restricted - only data enabled) and 4gb storage (1.8 gb user available)
For root - you can use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044496
User isyrider managed to install recovery and pemergency rom unlocking the calling feature also.
I was looking for a way to swap the internal storage with the sd card so I could get more space if posible without installing a custom rom to avoid incompatibility issues that could appear. Directory bind can help with big game files like gameloft but those 2 gb are still not too much . I was unable to install N.O.V.A 3 because it requires 1.81 gb free on sd.
Anyway long story short . To swap internal memory with SD card you need to have root and replace your VOLD.FSTAB file from system/etc with the one I attached.
You need to have root .
Use any root explorer.
Unzip attachment
Rename your VOLD.FSTAB to VOLD.FSTAB.BAK
Copy my VOLD.FSTAB to system/etc
Reboot.
Check in settings, You will see your sd card listed as internal memory.
This combined with link2sd app will give you plenty of space to install anything .
Hope this helps .
Hi icrazy, I've tried this procedure but unfortunately, I wasn't able to copy your 'vold.fstab' to the directory 'system/etc'. I've rooted my unit before I did this. Now the unit cannot detect SD card. I cannot rename/copy/move any file on this directory. please help... How to restore it, Thank you in advance
Hello, I don't understand what happen. If you were not able to copy my vold.fstab what did you change ? I ask this because you must have done something if now is not working.
Anyway it looks like is a problem with your file explorer , make sure it has read /write rights for system files.
Can you please share some light on isyrider? what is that? where can we find it? Google search didn't seem to help me with this
Is there any way in unlocking the phone feature without installing a different ROM? The last time i did that, with another lenovo tablet, i lost my 3g capabilities , and honestly i don't want to repeat that thing allover again.
Thank you icrazy, working perfectly
I have now 2x Vodafone Smart Tab II 7" with 4 GB and 8 GB storage on internal memory
Hi i managed to use the vold.fstab and replace the internal memory with the sdcard but my problem wasnt solved because the tablet also has another partition 503mb of internal storage and when i install any app will install the apps data on that internal storage even if i have sdcard or internal memory as default write disk so after a couple of apps i have the out of space issue because the internal storage is full is there any way to swap the internal storage 503mb ( not the internal memory 1.85gb) with the internal memory or even with the sdcard this is really stupid why have only 503mb of internal storage if the apps save keep saving data on that partition
Regards

Sorry to bump an old thread but i'm also wondering how it's possible to install a custom rom on this tablet. Any help aprecciated
Hello everyone,
This is my first post here. I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace 5830i and today I bought a new SD card because the old one was crap. I had this problem before, I have it now. When I try to download an application from the Android Market, there is always this error ''There is unsufficient storage available''. I checked and I had 23 free MB of Device memory and 1.8 GB free on my SD card. I read a lot of articles about this problem and tried many ''solutions'' and nothing fixed it. I will be really, really thankful if anyone can help me fix this. Cheers!
Try MarketFix by Felipe Aaon
You could also use Link2sd to make room on your internal storage.
the error you are facing is because once your internal storage is filled by approx. 85-90%, it shows the error - Insufficient Storage available
Try moving your apps to sd-card from settings/apps. if you moved them already, have you rooted your phone? If yes, then you can partition your sd-card to make space on internal storage. this can be done either Minitool Partition software for PC or through your CWM or TWRP recovery(needs root and custom recovery flashed)
what it does is, it takes a part of your sd card and converts it for internal storage.
If you have problem with the Playstore, you can root and install a newer version of the playstore. try this though i may not be sure about this
Google for the method as i cannot posts links currently
Cheers
Sir,
I have a doubt. If we use the sd card to increase the internal memory. Does it damage or degrade my sd card.
Hi,
It's possible to do that safely, and it's possible to mess it up and cause serious issues. But I can't point you towards help until I know your device make and model number.
Thanks!

Hmm ... hard to say without knowing your exact device and what you want to achieve.
Here is a general guide for increasing internal memory by partitioning: [Guide] INCREASING INTERNAL MEMORY.
And here is another one: [GUIDE] Partition SDCard & Install Memory Increasing Scripts(Ungaze,D2EXT+,MOUNTS2SD) ... but it's originally for a special device.
Best is to search your device specific forum, or post your device's details to get more specific help and advices.
Thread closed and thank you.
hello Guys!
I am using a Karbonn Titanium S5 plus and its specs are pretty good for me. The only issue I have is that the internal memory is low and so I was thinking maybe somehow I can install my custom ROM on my 16Gb External SD Card. Well the question is clear I hope... Do I have any option to do this ?? If yes then then any guidance would be a great help.
*** P.S. : I thought of changing the updater-script file, the part where the where the mount points are mentioned. i thought of changing those points to the external sd card but then without proper knowledge I backed off and thought to put the question here.
