[Completed] SD Card as Internal Storage without root/Move Apps To SD without root - XDA Assist

I have VF-895N (Vodafone Smart Prime 6) and it has only 4,95GB available for user. Can someone help me with something from swap internal with external or move apps to sd completely(with cache)?
One more question: anyone has this phone rooted with custom rom? Is it worth to root it and change the rom .... i mean is it faster?

Hello,
You may try partition your sd card and you can move your apps to sdcard in order to gain space on your internal storage.
Also you may visit here Root and please look here for your answer in post#4

Hello,
I don't think that's possible, unless you are running Marshmallow, since it has a basic functionality of swapping SD card as internal storage without root.

Vodafone Smart tab 2 (Lenovo A2107A) - Swap SD

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

[Q] Thl v11 Mtk6575 SD as internal memory

Hi, I've successfully rooted my phone (Thl v11) using Bin4ry and now I'd like to use my external SD card as internal memory. Unfortunately the internal memory of the phone is only a bunch of MB and I can't download app even if I will install them on the SD.
Is there anyone able to help me?
I found some guides on this forum about how to swap SD and internal memory but the ones I found were always dedicated to certain phones.
I noticed there are no posts about this Thl phone on this forum, but it's kinda cool and cheap.
Really hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance,
monchib
Anyone?
Please...
i have the same problem me too please help!!
hi guys, you have to install link2sd first, so format your sd with 2 partitions, first one is a primary partition fat32 formatted, second one is a primary partition ext4 formatted (use a program on pc, i use gparted on linux). Now you can insert sd in android device and open link2sd, it asks you wich partition you want to use, choose ext4 so it says to restart device, restart and open link2sd, now you can link your apps (in configuration menu you can set autolink)

Ok, if you want to force move apps to SD card or you want to move their data to sd card then you have to root your device,
I m not sure about which root method will be successful, but try kingo root, v root etc,
Or wait for some dev to make custom recovery for this device,.
Good luck

Hello team,
I need to move my GApps to my sd card. When android was in kitkat it was able to move to sd card without rooting from android sdk, but when i upgraded it to lollipop that method is not working. Whenever i try to install new apps from play store its telling not sufficient storage.
Is there any way to move every app to sd card without rooting.
My warranty will be voided if i root my phone.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Suhas
Bro don't worry about warranty avoid just root your device then use app2sd application alike link2sd .later on you can flash stock rom via flash tool. This way is better for phone having less internal memory like ours
