The phone shows >52GB of free space, but whenever I try to download an app, it says there isn't enough room on the device.
Any ideas?
The free space is on the internal SD Card Storage partition (/data/media). Apps are installed on a different partition (/data/app )
Hence the difference. Try moving some of your apps to external sd card.

I have partitioned my sd card in ext. format for more space. And have the internal memory full but there is still a lot of space on the sd card ext. Partition for apps. I just want to move the apps from internal memory to this partition so that my apps work fine and i have my internal memory with free space.
The problem might seem easy to solve. Just by deleting or moving apps from internal memory, but for me its complicated because i don't know which apps are stored on the internal memory and the sd card partition for a2sd... In the apps storage all the apps are shown together without showing which is on the sd ext. partition and which on phone's internal memory. i don't know to move the apps from phone memory to sd card partitioned memory. Any help is appreciated

Either do as suggested above, or download ROM Toolbox and under App Manager, you can move apps to the SD card and set applications as system apps aswell.

Hello, I got the app called Link2SD app which allows you to move apps to your external sd card. However, when I tried to move apps to SD card, it says that there was no second partitionn in my sd card and my external storage is emulated by the internal storage. What that means? Also, I went to recovery mode to try to partition the external sd card, it shows me ext size (128M, 256M, 512M, 1024M, 2048M, 4096M). What that sizes actually mean? Thanks.
hi,
I have 3 storages on my phone.
1- phone storage 500mb
2- internal SD card- 2gb (this SD card is embedded somewhere)
3-external 2nd SD card 16 gb
my phone is rooted and I am able to move any app from phone storage to internal sd card using link2SD app but I would like to remove all to external SD card. It looks like link2SD doesnt recognize this 2nd SD. so how can I do it? what is the best way?
thanks
I formatted my sd card as internal storage. I migrated all the data i could. I then proceeded to download doom 3 it installed to the tablet not the sd card for some reason. When I moved it manually to the sd card the amount of free space on my internal storage did not go down. It stayed the same as shown in my screen shots. Anyone have any ideas?
Hi All, i have my SD card formatted as internal Storage. So i assumed that until the whole space is used, i should not be getting the storage space running out error. I downloaded a couple of movies and this happened. Any help on how would i identify which partition is external one and which is internal one. One thing i know that apps are getting installed on SD card only. Just need to move some file to external, how would i do it.
