Hi,
I'm hoping someone can help me. I'm new to this and wrestling with the learning curve but I have spent time doing searches and trying to find an answer myself before asking for assistance.
I have managed to unlock my bootloader and, as I understand it, I should now find a custom recovery for my device before I try to root it. I have searched and searched but I have not been able to find a custom recovery which is definitely for my Android and I don't want to brick the thing. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?
Beyond that, any advice on the best rooting options would be greatly appreciated.
I'm running Android 6 on an Acer Iconia One 7 B1-780 (MTK8163).
It seems like nobody is working on this tablet... so sad because its got a great screen and is very responsive, I have also looked for a custom ROM or the right way to root it since it comes with so little space but to no avail. If you´ve found something let me know please.

If you're worried about the lack of space (as I was), you may use an SD card as internal storage. I did that, and at first, I thought all was well. However, it wasn't very long until I started getting the insufficient space message when installing apps. What I forgot to do, was MIGRATE the data from the internal space to the SD Card when I was asked if I wanted to use the inserted SD card as adoptive storage. If you skipped that step as I foolishly did, you may change it manually in the storage settings. Simply use the three-dot menu (top right) when looking at the SD card storage menu. Select 'Migrate Data' and it will push app data to the card opening up lots of internal space.
I now have over 10 gigs of apps installed to my 32 gig micro SD Card with 1.5 gigs used of the 3 (!) available in the included internal space.
Some apps still continue to install to the internal space. Simply move the app to the card manually (again in the storage settings). However, some apps CANNOT be moved to the card. Thankfully, in my use, these apps seem to be rare.
All the best!

First off let me thank everyone who is going to help me through my issue.
Everything started yesterday when I got a16 gigabytes new SD Micro card. I originally got the card so I can move my applications from the internal 16 gigabytes storage to that SD Micro card . After searching through the web I have realized that I cannot move my applications to the external memory until I root my device and so I did it using a guide from this website. after rooting my device I downloaded every application in play store that is used to move applications from the internal memory to the external one.And for some reason all of them failed'Someof them said that there is no enough memory. and some others said I have no External memory inserted "already checked in settings and it says external memory 14.98 Gb free. After that i read another guide which Said I should get Rom manager to partition my memory card.and I did download the Rom manager . I tried to partition but it said I don't have CWM , and it asked ifit should install it so I accepted. mydevice wasn't listed. I chose a random one and now I'm afraid I have broken my 3 days old note 10.1 . Could anyone help me please with
1. The Sd micro card issue(apps From internal memory't external memory.)
2. The random CWM device that I have downloaded and maybe installed.
3. Partitioning my card (if that's going to help.)
4. I'm new to android and have no idea what rooting is "although I did it anyways" and how I Can use rooting
Rooted note 10.1
Thank you again <3
Edit 1- 8 views no help? Id really appreciate it if anyone could help me.
I think some sort of reply will help you get started...
Note 10.1 only supports FAT 32. not NTFS. So you have to format your SDcard properly to begin with. I believe its true, you need to root your device to get AppOnSD support.
NEVER flash anything that is not intended SPECIFIC for your device. Always do a backup so you can restore it from an image if you happen to soft brick it.
Rooting pretty much allows you to get "super user" functionality. Most notably the ability to access system files.

I'll try to help with fixing your Note.
Can you get into download mode? Start with power off and press volume down and power at the same time.
If so download Check Fus (GGI version) from fus.nanzen.se and make you have Odin and the Samsung drivers as described in the how to root thread.
Check the back of your Note for version number; N8000, N8010 or N8013. Use Check Fus to download the correct rom for your country. If not the nearest one.
Follow the how to root guide (sticky in development) that explains how to install the rom. This should put you back where you started. Now, read a lot. Don't use Rom Manager.
http://rootgalaxynote.com/galaxy-note-10-1-root/how-to-root-galaxy-note-10-1/ How to root instructions. Your replacing the rom from the instructions with the one you downloaded from Check Fus.

Yes bro, I'm using it now.
So, when you say you've broken your Note, what's broken?

I said I think I broke my note because I downloaded and installed a random cmw from Rom manager when I tried partition my sd card .
And I have a problem moving apps to the sd card. In app2sd it says it's emulated andin droids it says memory is full.
Then I'll back out. I've no experience of apps2sd on the Note. Have had no cause to use it. I strongly suggest you read a lot more before you attempt anything else involving door, partitions or CWM.

Hi
I wanted to ask something about Rooting but couldn't find specific section for it or if there is, i am sorry i couldn't locate it. I apologize for it.
I have a Huawei Ascend G610-U20 with Android 4.2.1. The internal memory is 4GB but only 1.86GB is useable (on format). I am using Stock ROM.
I have some applications which are installed in phone memory (sdcard 0, not external sdcard). For example Facebook and by default it doesn't have the option of shifting to SD card, that option is turned off. Similarly this is off for Mix Cloud app. There are so many other apps as well. I use Dodol launcher and all it's themes are on phone memory and cannot be migrated to external SD card.
I found this thread of making SD card as default location for installation. I didn't do it being afraid to make any disastrous changes to my phone.
Then i got to know about rooting and i was again afraid of bricking my phone. This is why i am asking it here. I had previously another Android phone and i rooted it and then it started some problems mainly software clashes. e.g. when viber is being used and a phone call comes, phone restarted. I thought of at least considered that time that this is due to rooting.
My sole purpose of doing any of above method is, to be able to migrate those apps to external SD card which are by default not able to be migrated in stock ROM. Else than this i am not much advanced user and nor do i want to go further deeper.
What you recommend and what is the best way to do.
Just a point to mention, in case of using that 1st method of Android ADB method, i think it would need me to format the phone and then reinstall the apps. Am i right?
Please guide me.
Thanks in advance.
Hi I have a question about my rooted Alcatel One Touch Pop Astro Model 50042T. First off I have rooted phones and tablets and moded gaming systems so I have a general-intermediate understanding of the process of rooting but I'm pretty much lost after that. (Also I do NOT have ready access to a PC for the time being.)
So my main concern is that my phone should have 4gb of internal storage and it is only showing that I have 1.80gb!! I know that there are partitions or divvied space that are hidden or you need special permissions to edit. Is that the USB storage? If I'm wrong about that sorry, please correct me.
So my question is how do I reorganize, modify, or even delete hidden partitions? Anything to return my phones visible 1.80gb of storage to the original 4gb? I just need to be able to access it again to install apps on it. If the whole 4gb is impossible, can I get it back to the 3.7-3.8gb that was available when I first purchased it? Please help!!
Im not sure its completely rooted. Im running king root version 4.9.6 and Purify version 1.5.2.159 and I might have installed a custom ROM or kernel but I'm not entirely sure. I got the pphone approximately 3-4 months ago and I rooted it the same night. And I tried multiple versions of king root and other apps and eventually my phone storage disappeared.
•I would install a root checker if I had enough space.
•I used purify to get rid of apps that I figured were bloatware but I still only have 43.82mb available
•I have transferred every app to the SD card that can be stored there.(If there is way to store system apps and apps that usually can't be stored on external SD I would like to know.)
•Im sorry this is my second post of this. I'm really not sure if I posted this in the right place the first time.
Thank you for your help,
Maxx

Hi there,
I am running a stock lg g pro 2 d838, and am constantly battling with the onboard storage. Ive got a 128gb memory card, but some apps just cant be moved.
I was wondering if someone were able to provide me with a step by step guide (I dont have any knowledge or experience with this) for the easiest way to be able to use my phones sd card for all apps etc.
Everytime I look at rooting, custom roms guide they appear to be written for those that already know.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, why would you want to move all apps to sd card? I am not sure if you can do that.
You properly need root to be able to do it, so you have to root your phone first.
I think you need app on play store to move apps to sd card, you can search for it. I don't have a name of the app but I know there is app for that, it might need need as I said.
Minor update I'm no longer really needing a solution to this problem although it would be very helpful for everyone if one was found as I'm sure this has been a problem too many people at this point)
I'm over here trying to root my S6 Lite tablet without a computer just a bloody cell phone and I am oh so close but I have no way of reformatting this SD card cuz xxxxx Android wants to put it as FAT32 for god knows what reason it's an 8 gig SD card and I've even tried reformatting it in both devices I have same result Android just being stupid and I am at the end of my rope here cuz I have not been able to find any apps once so ever that actually allow me to reformat an SD card with a format of my choosing or at least one that's usable
Now please tell me that someone on this xxxxx website has a solution to this problem because once again the weird stuff I'm doing has led me down a path no one else has seemingly took
(And if anyone's asking why I'm rooting this tablet it's because Android 12 works like crap)
Mod Edit: Some content removed.
I am kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place as I have not been able to figure out any method of formatting this SD card with something usable because Android is for some unknown reason only formatting it with FAT32 despite using two different devices to attempt to format it normally and I have not been able to find a single application that exists that does not require root permissions that would allow me to change the format of the SD card I have legitimately spent like three or four hours now trying to figure something out and have come up with nothing please someone here help
I'm just going to add this year that I obviously don't have access to a computer or this wouldn't be a problem
Root your phone and use twrp to change filesystem.
But in your case when you don't want to root. Unplug SD card and connect with adapter to your pc.
Go to this computer and right click on the SD card
Click format And select filesystem
Quick format is fine
Format and when finished
Put SD card back.
Done

Both of those are a problem because I don't have a computer to use and I am trying to root my tablet and the only other device I have is an a20 cell phone that's not rooted either and I am so close but I can't Flash the modded firmware because Android is formatting the SD card with xxxx FAT32 so besides this SD card the only other option I have is to attempt to do the flash over wireless ADB I mean seriously if I had a bloody computer I would have been done like 3 days ago

That's a scam app that I kept running into if I recall it didn't even boot although it's hard to tell cuz I tried a couple that look pretty much identical to that so once again something that's completely useless I came here cuz I was hoping somebody would have an actual solution not the same garbage I kept running into trying to Google my way through this
it's an actual solution youre just being silly.

It's not or I would have found it by now I've tried everything you can find easily on Google and the Play Store absolutely nothing has worked or been anywhere near what I'm looking for besides a couple of apps that require root permissions I was coming here hoping that somebody would have an actual tool for this application not someone giving me the same
trash that google did, now I do appreciate you attempting to help but I need somebody here that is a lot more knowledgeable than you

Normally a person would update the result and from there we look for another solution. Goodluck finding someone knowledgeable lol, if you weren't such a special one I would have suggested something more advanced
