Device has 16GB.
2GB dedicated to internal (phone)
14GB is recognized by the system as "SDCARD"
any micro SD card you insert is refer to as "external_SD"

Thanks ,, but how can i make the internal to be more than 2 GB ?? cuz it will be full after one week i will install more programs

You cannot. The system is design that way.
New programs are usually installed on the SDCARD.
Some system programs are installed on the internal when it boots up.
If you go to /setting/application/manage and list all programs, you have a list of programs that all installed.
touching each program will show where they are stored. If you want to move them, you can move to internal(phone) or USB(SDcard/external).
Programs that are installed internal or phone will boot up first. The more you have, the longer boot time.
Some application manager from market will let you choose where the app is installed.

^^ thanks ,, now i got the idea

Memory full problem

I have created a sd card partition and using link2sd, then also i am getting the memory full error..i have 156 applications in all out of which 75 are system and 81 are user apps...i have linked almost all of the user apps....my current rom is "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1697912"
I have also attached the screenshots of storage info from link2sd...how to resolve the memory full erorr?? and please dont say to uninstall apps...
Any help please..thanks in advance..

dont blame on ur phone..d memory is very low man!!!!
i also have this problem..after upgrading my sd card to 16 gb my problem got solved....

If you are the kind that prefers empty internal memory, then use other scripts/mods...like amarullz script or s2e...
(Don't ask for link/tuto, search around, you'll find it)

[Q] Micromax Unite 2 - Rooted and Internal SD card

Hi ,
I really need a help !! I bought the new Micromax Unite 2 A106 and some how with the help of XDA forum i successfully rooted (installed supersu from recovery - i flashed recovery with scatter some method found from the forum). Now i have few questions which really i am dying to know., please help me
I am using 8 GB SD card (Class 4)., partitioned as 1st partion FAT32 ~4GB and 2nd partion as EXT4 ~4GB
Questions:
1. From settings -> storage, my mobile is showing.
1.1 Internal Memory ( Total: 1.89 GB out which i almost used every thing)
1.2 External SD card (Total: ~4 GB)
1.3 Internal SD card (Total 1.97 GB out of which nothing is used)
My EXT4 memory is not show., But in Link2SD Storage-info it is show (also mounted some were on /data/sdxta2)
With out help of Link2SD, Before installing apps... In settings -> storage i selected "Internal SD" as default installation location. Tried to install many apps nothing goes into Internal SD memory (Total 1.97 still seems to be free) which is accessible from file explorer.
With help of Link2SD, created a mount script in EXT4 partion... After reboot Link2SD didn't give any error for mount script., In Link2SD created "link" for apps and it asks for a reboot.. after reboot., the app is not show in android., but i can see they have been linked /data/sdxta2.
I don't understand why linking apps disapper and why can't i use that Internal SD memory of ~ 1.97 GB for apps installation.
Thanks a ton guys !!! your help will save my Unite 2 & Me

Make Application storage from 1 GB to 2.5 GB for MMX A117
Hi there, when i connected the phone to the PC after selecting the EBR files and clicked on Download, the SP tools did not detect my A117 for a long time. It kept displaying "searching" in the status bar below. Also,no yellow prompt came up. I'm using Windows 8. Does the VCom drivers provided in the attachment have compatibility issues with Win8?
Please respond.

There is one application name Meteos 6589 on xda.
Can i use this to increase internal memory??
Is yes then how to return back if used??

You wont be able to see internal eXCEPT the 1.5 Gb, I solved it. You need to reflash rom after ebr changes !

please tell me how to change ebr file

Since out of 1.6 gb, 1.5 gb has been shifted to phone memory making it 2.5gb. So only 116mb left with the internal memory.

Make sure you have cleaned all the cache. Some app might be taking that space. Check individual apps in apps settings.
If problem persist, then take titanium back up of all ur apps n format phone. This happened to me once and i have to do this painful process of formatting.
