Hey guys. I know this post isn't related to root or anything but I really want someone to help me out on something. I recently bought a QMobile A1 (It's an Android One phone and I think it is the Karbonn Sparkle V changed into QMobile A1 in Pakistan, so you can consider it a Karbonn Sparkle V) and it came with Lollipop pre-loaded. So I updated it to Marshmallow and updated all the security patches and other updates. I also added a 16GB Micro SD Card info it and formatted it as Internal Storage. I tried taking some photos and videos but they all saved on my internal memory and it got full really quickly. Nothing goes inside the SD Card except for apps. I'm really worried about this because one of my relatives also bought the same phone and same SD Card but he could save photos and videos automatically on his SD. I asked him if he modified anything but he said he didn't. Please help me out because I only have 8GB of which only 5.75GB is available to me :crying: Thanks
Bro I think it is due to you have selected it as your internal storage. unmount the SD card and reset your device then Add your micro SD card and use a portable storage not internal it might work.
Nevermind, guys! I just migrated all of my internal data to SD and now it saves everything in it! Thank for the contribution though!

Hello,
because there is no specific forum section for this device I ask my question here, I hope the mods can move it to the correct forum section...
Yesterday I bought a brand new Acer Liquid E2, I love the phone but there are problems!
First: I put a 32gb MicroSD card in the phone and it crashed and now my 32gb MicroSD card is damaged!
Then: I put a 8gb MicroSD card in the phone, it has recognised the card but when I try to move apps to sd card the phone shows that it has only 1,65gb memory while I have 8gb MicroSD capacity!!!
Can anyone tell me for God's sake why the hell I only can move 1,65gb apps on SD while I have more memory!!!???
I hope we can fix that problem otherwise I will turn my phone back.
Thanks in advance

I have an acer liquid e2 and encountered that problem to
the problem is that you only can move apps to the internal SD-Card
there are 3 different memory "cards" on the acer e2
4gb internal memory splitted in two parts
- 1.65 gb usable as internal SD (sdcard0)
- and the rest is the internal memory for the android OS and other stuff
Your external SD card (sdcard1)
When you move apps to sd it will automatically move them to sdcard0 wich is only 1,65GB
somwhere
There is a way to switch the sdcard0 and sdcard1 so you can move as many apps to your sd as it is big but you need root to do this
rooting the acer liquid E2 is still a bit experimental but soon everything will be possible with our E2 its an awesome phone for the relatively low price so don't turn it back so soonsomwhere
I saw this somewhere on a french android forum will post the link if i can find it
Hi,
An official update from Acer is on its way to allow external SD to be used for apps. Should be there soon.
Root is not experimental it's very easy to do and you also can get CWM recovery, a way to swap internalSD and externalSD plus a way to extand internal memory (won't be necessary when Acer releases its update).
I have all this written in French but lack time to translate those in English. Don't hesitate to go to the forum request thread so XDA opens a forum for the E2

Has this update (ability to move or install apps to ext SD card) now available? Can someone provide a link, please? I tried to find it in Acer's web site but found nothing.
Thanks!
It's being distributed as an OTA update so you're phone should warn you of the availability (unless you're rooted).
I have the WW_GEN1 version available here . Just copy it to SDcard and flash through recovery.
I have a weird problem. I am using my Xperia L, running 4.2.2(Out of The Box) with the latest official Firmware. Its not rooted.
4.2.2+ supports moving Apps to SD without Root.
I have Noticed one thing. If youre going to Buy a New Phone Running 4.2.2+, If you start the phone for the first time(just after buying), with no memory card, after youve switched on the phone and try to move Apps to SD, it wont Happen!! The apps will only move to the Internal Storage.
But,if you start the phone(For the First Time) with memory card Inserted, then it will recognize the mem Card as Your external storage. From settings now you can move Apps to SD.
Why does this Happen??
Can anyone help me to solve this??
Factory reset Is an option i Know but I wanted to Know if Other solutions Existed.
I tested It with Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2 and Moto E , by Inserting the Mem card first, Then Starting the Phone (for the First time). For Both of the phones, the Mem card was taken as the external and apps could be the Moved to SD via Settings.
But for my Xperia L, I didnt insert the Memory card and switched it on(just after buying) . When I inserted the Mem Card later, and tried to Move Movable apps to SD, the apps would only move to The Internal Memory.
Thank You in Advance.

we cannot move apps directly to external memory, we are only allowed to move apps to internal..but if u wanted to move apps on external, u nid to swap them but its too risky if u dont know what u are doing.

Hi everyone
I bought a lg g pad 7.0 a few days ago and have been facing an issue. My last tablet was a rooted nook tablet running 4.2.2 my new tablet is one 4.4.2 and ive heard it has something to do with the multiple user ability they added. anyway i only have 5 gb of internal storage and a empty 32gb sd card, for some reason there is an emulated sd card called storage/sdcard0
and my actual sd card is storage/ext-sd. i need to find out if there is a way to change default app install location or if i can delete the emulated partition and use it like jellybean.
btw i rooted using purple drake and it works just fine(except for the sd card)
Id appreciate any advice or help as this is very frustrating

The app that you tried might not be supporting the s5 clone.
So i would recommend you to uninstall that app and then reboot your phone.
There is a change that your problem might be fixed.
did factory reset and didn't help
thank you so much for replay any way that didnt help
i flash new rom or the phone it turn up the same old rom and problem fixed
now i lost the imie how do i restore the imie please
hello Guys!
I am using a Karbonn Titanium S5 plus and its specs are pretty good for me. The only issue I have is that the internal memory is low and so I was thinking maybe somehow I can install my custom ROM on my 16Gb External SD Card. Well the question is clear I hope... Do I have any option to do this ?? If yes then then any guidance would be a great help.
*** P.S. : I thought of changing the updater-script file, the part where the where the mount points are mentioned. i thought of changing those points to the external sd card but then without proper knowledge I backed off and thought to put the question here.
