[Q] SD Question with ROM

I have a 16gb SD card that is coming tomorrow, but I got my phone tonight. It came with a 2gb SD card. Can I root and install the ROM on my 2gb SD card and swap in my 16gb SD card tomorrow? Does the ROM install to the internal memory?

Yes it does, so you'll be fine.

Hi,
“ROM” is the memory where the system files of the OS is stored. By default all downloadable apps are stored as well in this location. Therefore it would be better to install ROM in 16 GB SD card or you can also install it in internal memory and define the external memory path (16 GB SD card location) for downloading any apps.

[Q] ROM Manager: Partition SD?

I'm wondering if this feature in ROM Manager is useful for our phones, since we have like 6 GB of internal memory, and more external space available.
I just bought a 32 GB Class 10 SD Card, and it seems with CM7 that I can already install Apps directly to the SD card, so is this even needed? Any sort of benefit at all to partitioning my SD Card from ROM manager? Any RAM benefits I can do with 32 GB?
Thanks...

[JellyBean] Internal storage, phone storage and SD card

Hello.
Have this new Xperia V with stock Jelly Bean rom, only rooted, and when I got a 32GB sd card, I noticed that it was not using it like it was on my last phone with ICS.
On ICS you only had 2 storages - phone storage and sd card. You could move apps to sd and back to phone.
On JellyBean there is only phone and internal storage (like an emulated sd card), and you can move the apps only between those two. The sd card can not be used for apps.
So my question is, is it possible to merge the phone and internal storage, so it only appears as phone storage, and the sd card to be available as an option to move apps to, Like it was on ICS?
If not, would the downgrade to ICS make only one internal storage, and the other one to be the sd card?
EDIT: Is this thread what I am looking for? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254918

as per attached link u swap sd storage in to internal storage... u need to swap it bro

[Q] How to change default storage of files received via Wifi Direct ?

So i own a Galaxy S3 with 16 GB internal storage and 64 GB external SD Card. The files i receive via Wifi Direct gets stored in the internal storage by default.
Can this be changed somehow to external SD Card ? :fingers-crossed:
And External SD Card to Internal Storage swapping using scripts is not the answer to my question.
