I purchased the 8GB Tab 2 7.0 because of the expandable storage but now I'm questioning whether the 16GB on the Nexus 7 would suit my needs better.
I know that apps cannot be moved to the SD card but I was wondering about rented Playstore movies? I downloaded a Play movie and it went right to the internal storage and I couldn't find a way to move it. I mainly use my tablet for DroidTV (which will not download to the SD card - they say Samsung doesn't allow it) and rented movies when I travel. And with just a few tv shows and my apps downloaded I'm down to 2GB of the internal storage left which isn't enough to download one Playstore movie.
I've thought about rooting but I've never done that before and I'm a big chicken so if anyone has any other way for me to utilize the 32GB storage card I bought I would really appreciate it!
I think you could use app called directory bind, have not tried it personally, but i think it allows to bind directories of external sd card as if they are in the internal sd

Thanks. I can't find it on Google Play but when I searched for it online I found a thread here on XDA that says ROOT is required.
Any other solutions out there? I love my Tab 2 but I definitely need more storage .
Yesterday I downloaded a game which has only one .obb file of 1.3GB. As my internal memory was full, I tried to transfer a game from my Internal Memory to the PC via Media Device Interface as well as tried solid explorer to move the game to external SD card.
The game is just 500MB but has almost 7,000 files. As expected it was taking hell lot of time either way (many many hours). After some tries I just decided to delete it, and guess what, It takes even more time in deletion!
Now I'm stuck with full Internal Memory because of a game!
Is there any way I can mount the Internal Memory like normal USB storage?
(Please update all the games to use .obb file :banghead: )
I just bought a tablet advertised as 16Gb of memory. Storage appears divided into two sections, 1Gb for system and apps, and 11Gb (aprox) for media. The 1Gb partition is already getting full, even though I have already moved all the applications I can from there into the 11Gb partition. Is there any way to install applications directly in that 11Gb internal storage? I keep my media in an USB and I use an OTG cable whenever I need it so I would really like to use as much as I can out of those 11Gb I have for applications only.
Thanks!
Hi all,
I have GTA 3 installed on my phone and it works fine from the internal memory, it occupies 1.2GB of space, this game supports moving to SD and I moved it to my External 32GB card. Now the game occupies 1.2GB on the SD card and funnily it also occupies 1.2GB of internal space.
Can anyone tell me what is happening here and if there is any fix.
Thanks
if your phone supports apps and data on sd card then delete 1.2 gb file from internal and if your phone doesnt support apps and data on sd card then delete data from sd card
Is 32gb enough storage with whatever available space there's? I play one game but download quite a few apps. Pics I save on Google photos. Let me know how you all are making out with storage.
There is expandable storage with a microsd card, up to 128 gigs. Plenty of deals at this time for less than $30.
I don't remember exactly, but I think there's like 18-20GB of free space plus whatever you add via SD card? I've got ~15GB free and 30GB free on a 64GB SD card, so I'm doing fine for space.
It comes with a few preinstalled apps that are able to be deleted. I had around 21gb available after deleting the preinstalled and installing the apps I used. Roughly 20gb available.
I heard a micro SD can slow down the device? Is this true?
SD cards have slower read and write speeds than onboard device storage so they're better suited for to be used like a SSD+HDD is in a gaming PC. SSD for applications, games and stuff that needs to be fast HDD for mass storage of movies, music, some games, and whatever else.
