Hi all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy J5 running android 6.0.1. build number MMB29M.J500YXXU1BQG1 . However this only has 8GB and I am struggling with space to install even the essential apps. How can I make the SD card as an internal storage so i can install apps on it? I don't find a built in option to choose the SD card as an internal . The only option is to use it as an external storage. Can someone help me on this .
Will rooting solve my problem ? If so what software is recommended for rooting?
Thanks in advance

Some more information is needed to better assist you. What Device ? Rooted, or Non-Rooted ? What Rom ? What Android version ? What Recovery ?

EDIT:
You should be able to go to : Menu - Settings - Application manager . Then move the Apps to the SD Card manually. You can also use Titanium Backup to move the current apps, and data to the SD Card. But for the future you can use ROM Toolbox to make sure the apps install to the external SD. Finally you can check out THIS thread that discusses some of the same things you asking. Although the OP is trying to accomplish the opposite.
Yeah so recently i Flashed a custom ROM [ROM][5.0][Lollipop][Official] NamelessROM 2.0 [ALPHA] [20141117] but i don't know to transfer the apps from internal memory to SD card and also there is no transfer to SD card option given in the storage options of the apps. Can anyone please help me on that?
Hi,
You will need to ask for help in the thread you downloaded the rom from. ?
Good luck!

Search for "root essentials" app it has features to mount external sd as internal. But as its beta has some bugs.thnks
i dont know a way but if you want to transfer obb files (have a lot of high end games like asphalt 8,, fifa 16,15)
download öbb on scdard from playstore
activate in the framework
reboot done you can transfer your obb files in sdcard/Android/obb/
Hi xda, thanks for being here for us wee users: WE KNOW YE ARE GODS:good::
My question is do i have to root my new Amp2 6.0.1 Marshmallow, in order to utilize the Samsung External sd card i bought for it ? The reason I ask is that the Amp2 would not recognize a Sandisk 16gb ext.sd, b/c 'no second partition,' NOR will it allow use of the REQUIRED Samsung ext sd, for the same reason, 'no second partition.' Link2SD is what i purchased for my S3, & it cannot move my apps for lack of two primary partitions. &, APARTED does not work without root.:crying: HELP PLEASE, as i don't really WANT root, since 'flashify' destroyed my S3. Thanks for REPLY.
Hi, I am no expert on this and I dont have an amp2 but I do have a samsung on5 from metropcs/tmobile which I believe to be equivalent maybe even the same just rebranded.
On the on5 you must format the ext sd card as internal storage not portable/media. This might have to be done on a pc. Then you must mount
the ext sd card as internal storage and make it adoptable. Samsung blocked this feature on their phones. This allows the phone's os to use the ext sd card for apps etc. I used an app called root essentials to do these steps. Here is an article that describes the issue further. What seems to work is further down where the author of root essentials describes the unrooted process which requires the use of adb. http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...sd-card-as-internal-storage-using-marshmallow
If u get it working , u will have to regularly clean cache and move apps and updates to sd. I use the app2sd tool in a package called android assistant to do the moves.
Your results may vary.
Finally, how much free internal storage do u have now on your amp2? I would like to compare to my on5.
Good luck!
Hi! I haven´t been installing roms ans such in a very long time but now my phone broke and I want to use a 2015 samsung J7. My only problem is I need more drive space so I´d like to use a 64gb sd as internal storage. Can you recommend any ROM that can do that?
Thx so much!!!
