I am having Gionee s5.1 phone with 16GB storage (no SD Card support) running on 4.4.2 Android version. The phone storage divided into 2 sections:
6.25 - This is called Internal Storage. Android version is installed on this with pre installed applications.
9.75 - This is used for media storage and currently no file or images in this storage.
I have uninstall all the unnecessary applications (Pre-installed) from the phone and keep only Cleanmaster, Whatsapp, Facebook Messagner and imo. I have automatic update of apps is off as well as from google play store.
Now the problem is, when I bought this phone it has around 2.3 GB space available and a week back, with above configuration and application, it shows mes only 471 MB space left. I have gone through each and every application manually and removed the cache also used Cleanmaster for the same but no help.
Someone told me to do Factory Reset to resolve this and I do last week. At that time my internal storage back to 2.63 GB free of 6.25 GB allocated and I am happy. Again I configured my phone with above software and disabled the auto update of apps from google apps a week ago. Today, when I go to Settings -> Storage, it shows only 400 MB space left of 6.25 GB. I am not sure what to do and how to deal with this situation. I googled solutions to deal with it like root the phone (King root used) and use Link2SD or App2SD to move the apps but those app said SD partition not mount. I tried minipartition wizard to partition for 9.75GB as shown on the various blgs, but my phone shows message of Corrupted SD Card. No luck... :crying:
Can any one let me know how can I merge internal storage (6.25 GB) with phone storage (9.75 GB) to use the phone without any issue?
Or
How can I use the Phone Storage as Internal Storage and move applications to Phone storage?
Urgent help is greatly appreciated...

I have a tablet (Made by a company called MyAudio, they are only in our country so i wouldn't be suprised if you guys didn't heard about them). It has an 504MB internal memory (for OS and stock apps) and an 5,75GB INTERNAL SD Card. The problem is that it installs the downloaded apps to the internal memory and not the card, so it can't be really used. Also 504 GB storing the OS and ALL apps is clearly not enough for anyone. I only have like 100 megabytes for installing apps. The tablet is running Ice Cream Sandwich, so the apps can be moved to the Int. sd card, but not all of them, and also I can't even install apps that are too big, because it installs them on the int. memory first, and THEN sometimes they can be moved to the SD card. So is there any solution to this?
Hi,
You may possibly need to Root the device, if there's a way, and use something like "Link2SD" app to install on external sd.
I need your exact model number to see if info on this already exists on XDA. Though very likely you'll need to ask for help here,

Good luck!
I want to be able to instal apps on my SD card. Since my phone's space is full with 5 apps.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I have had much luck in the past with Link2SD:
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Apps and Games > [APP][1.6+] Link2SD
It leverages space on or SD card by way of a second partition (any size you want, but 2GB is probably enough). If you like it and get the Pro version, you can move the app data to the SD card as well (where the free version moves mostly the APK itself).
Please note, Android still has to download to internal storage, so you may get download fails on larger apps. But without repacking your kernel with a modified fstab (which causes signature and performance problems), Link2SD is your best bet.
Any questions about the app, can be asked in the above thread (once registered for an account)
Hope this helps.
so i have a Huawei Fusion @ from at&t i have a 8GB Sd card and less than 15 apps installed. when i check storage is says i have 2.05GB with 2.04 free. but as soon as i download an app or an update for the few existing apps i have it says insufficient memory. cleared the Cache, deleted all apps i could, moved everything i could to SD card, rooted and deleted some of the Bloatware at&t put on it. still when i go to my manage apps screen it says i only have 125MB availible. but the storage says 2.04 GB available. how can this be, and what can i do.

Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
I would trust the apps screen then, as storage is glitching out.
You can ask about this here, as this is where your device experts are found:
> General discussion > Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking > AT&T Fusion 2 U8665 Root - General/Q&A
Please note, you will need to register for an XDA account before you can post there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
Hello.
I recently purchased a chinese off brand tablet and had an unexpected issue with the memory being partitioned. The model is vKB011B and it's processor is mt6592. It's running a Mediatek flavour of Lollipop 5.12.
The issue is that, while it has 64GB of internal memory, it's memory has been partitioned into one 4GB block of "Internal Storage" and one 60GB block of "Phone Storage". Apps, and most app data, all install to the 4GB partition so it runs out of memory very quickly. I can side step the issue to some degree by moving apps to "Phone Storage" but only some apps can be moved like this.
Basically I want to gain more access to this memory for the purpose or installing apps. I rooted the device and tried to use App2SD but it seems that this app only works with an External SD. I found a thread here describing a way to tell my device where to install apps but this doesn't appear to have any other option but "internal storage" and "external storage". I tested it just be sure and it doesn't change the install location without an external SD.
So I'm looking for what I can do to make my device install to the 60GB partition and preferably any app data as well.
Alternately I found this thread regarding altering partitions....
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/general/guide-repartition-internal-memory-data-t3052242
But I am uncertain if this will work the same with my particular device since it sounds like his device has unified memory he's just stealing from the system memory. It also seems fairly risky if there is a means of simply installing to the 60GB partition with out altering it.
Finally, I am wondering if there is anyway to switch my device to unified memory?
Thank you very much for your time.

Hi there,
I'd like to ask for your kind help.
Info
Device: d402 (Navon Mizu D402)
OS: Android KitKat 4.4.2
Originally NOT rooted
Memory (device I internal) 1,27 GB
Rooted (soft break) by Kingo Root, SU by Kingo Root
SDHC Maxell 16GB class 10 (32GB can be extended).
Used apps: Force2SD
QUESTION: there is not an app that would show me apps are forced to SD.
Only music and audio files are shown.
It seems that although there are 450GB free memory is available in the device
it seems that phone counts SD used memory taken by apps as it was used by device in its own inner memory,
so device randomly reboots itself.
Is it possible to see apps on SD?
File Manager counts MBs are used by photo and audio files too only.
Although I rooted phone and able to move apps to SD device randomly restarts itself.
Thanks for your kind help in advance!
Hope to hearing from you soon!
Brgds,
Nika
