I don't think this is a space issue, more like memory issue. Try reboot and then re install see what's happens.
FYI: Currently there is NO app to move to SD card for tf700.

Can you download and install any app? Also are you rooted? or using data2sd card mod?

Your data partition ia full you can use that kernel for stock cromi based device. I have same problem but can't use that kernal due to to running CM 10.1.0.

I haven't looked too much into particulars of everything, but I did a setup on my old phone where I linked the g+ cache to its SD card
And it works awesome
and the short version of how I understand things work for your situation :
you tell it to take /sdcard/android/obb...
and link it to /mnt/media_rw/usbdisk/...
and it will ask you to transfer over the files, and let it do its thing...
if you check out his xda thread I linked ya, he talks about game data and OTG, so see what he has to say about it...

I read a couple of threads somewhere where they were talking about getting adaptive storage on emui. Can't recall the devices or the methods but users reported success there. Will look for them and share the thread.

It seems a complicated process with a lot of ifs involved but found the thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-4x/help/huawei-honor-4x-che2-l11-app2sd-link2sd-t3465942/page1
It refers to another thread to actually figure out what to do. Don't own a 5x to give it a shot, may be someone can try this method.

This application is what you need https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/apps2sd-partition-sd-card-link-apps-to-t3122919. It allows you to link apps to your sd card ext4 partition. You have to re-partition your sdcard to two partitions. First as a normal FAT32 partition and other one as a EXT4 partition.

You can but I think I have read somewhere some of them might stop working. You have to test your self what works. Also if you want more memory, installing google keyboard and deleting huawei swipe keyboard will give some extra space.

Well cheap class 10 sd card was easily enough for apps2sd linking. Haven't tested with adoptable storage but I believe it will work without any problem.

installing apps to sd card working?

so, I've noticed that on my j7 metal (j710mn) stock MM in the app manager there is an option to install apps to the external SD card, but it doesn't seem to work - at least not for every app. tried to move some games to the SD card, and the only one that worked was odd world - strangers wrath, and only after I moved it's obb folder to the SD card manually. is there any tip or thick to make it work on other apps or is this not working?

You have to format the SD as internal memory.
Then it should work.

Look here:
https://www.androidpit.com/how-to-format-microsd-cards-as-internal-storage
It is working for a bunch of people, but it all depends on how well Samsung altered the core Android OS.
I tried it on my SM-T800 (MM), didn't work.
Also the same on my SM-J730F (N).

Should work after rooting then.
However, I didn't manage to root my phone following the guide posted somewhere else on xda.
