Hey!
Just quick question, will this script swap internal/external sd correctly on my rooted Smasung S plus? I'm running out of space for games(especially those, as data for it is saved on internal sd) and applications.
If it won't, can you suggest anything better?
I've got 32gb microSD class 4(should be enough fast), in case it matters.
Thanks for anyhelp.

RAM 512Mb but you only have aprox 326 Mb for yourself, the rest are used by the OS and System Services.
Internal SD, can come in 8GB models or 16GB models
External SD, is whatever SDHC micro SD card you want to insert into it, supports up to 32GB micro SD cards
the Internal SD is split in 2 GB for System OS Apps, and whatever is left over is yours to use.
the Internal SD is aprox a Class 4 SD card
Amd what about system types on internal sd? What is reason for so slow stock i/o? FS type? LagFix i choosed store data on same chip...

exactly because of that the internal SD is split into 2 active partitions, by having the swap file on another SD card, then it lessen the access time

Ok! But..... CFLagFix-1.70 moves files to internal SD, not external.
It was in internal, and became also internal. So what's the difference?
Ok, maybe another partition, but same storage! May by file system structure, heard about some journals??? or what else??
First off I have a Galaxy S Captivate and I'm a noob when it comes to the mods on this phone. It is rooted. I bought a 32gb sd card and wanted to partition into two partitions. I did some searching and found this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543985. It worked great, but it didn't modify the ext sd card. It partitioned the internal card instead. Now instead of seeing the 16gb internal I'm seeing 13gb.
Question is, is there an easy way to 'undo' this without loosing everything and actually partition the external card?
Thanks in advance,

The internal /sdcard partition should only have around 13gb. The entire phone has 16gb this includes all the system partitions and a 2gb partition in /data for user apps.
Okay so it repartitioned the internal storage. Is there a way to point it to the external to partition it? I'm wanting to move the apps to the sd to free up space. Sorry for the dumb questions...
You can't install an app in an external sd.
You can move apps from /data/app, which has the 2gb capacity, to a folder in /sdcard with native froyo software.
Settings>applications> manage applications>"the app you want"> move to sd.
I have a samsung galaxy tab rooted with overcome,jupiter edition. The galaxy Tab has internal memory, internal sd memory, and a slot for external micro sd card memory. My problem is with app2sd apps they always install to the internal sd memory (i assume because its named sd card even though it is internal). What program can I use like app2sd that will let me choose my external micro sd card (memory)?
Thanks for any help.

P. S. I know that there are apps let let you backup to the external card bit i want to install apps to my micro sd. Not anything internal. My microsd is bigger than both internal.
Thanks again.
Hi guys, I was wondering if there is a way to swap internal storage with the micro sd card on the Z3C. Cuz I have used an android phone before which had only 8gb of internal storage and it was a jarring experience, I had to move apps to the sd card and always keep an eye on the storage, I didn't like that.
If there isn't a way then please tell me how do you manage your storage with that 16 gb of internal storage.
No, that's a pipe dream.
Only a few devices can do that, and from what I remember the Nook was one of them.
Just move everything to SD card if you're using Lollipop.

Hi,
I recently installed Lineage 14.1 on my Tab S 8.4. Everything worked great and there is great improvement in performance.
I have one question, I have installed a 32Gb Micro Sd card and the device asked me if I wanted to format it as internal memory, which I did. So according to the OS I now have 40Gb, 8Gb onboard + 32Gb Micro Sd.
However when I try to install apps or connect the tablet to my computer it says that I only have 8Gb on board memory. So now even though I have a lot of space, the tablet keeps on telling me that I am running out of space.
So on one hand it sees that I have the 32Gb card installed, but on the other hand it ignores it.
I can try with another SD card, but it is quite a long process, since I will need to reset the tablet again, so before I do that I wanted to ask if someone had a similar problem, or maybe there is some hardware limitation on the tablet that will not allow me to use the sd card as internal memory.
Anyone come across issues like this before?

Your device should have 16gb not 8gb internal storage.
The data on the sdcard also gets encrypted once adoptable storage is enabled.
Data also needs to be migrated using the migrate option after setting up adoptable storage.
If your internal storage was already full before enabling adoptable storage then that's part of the issue.
Internal storage will still get used even with adoptable storage enabled, just most of the data will go to the sdcard.
I suggest you fix your size issue first.
You are right, the device does have 16gb and not 8gb.
Right now the usage is as follows, 14.5gb on the internal and 1.4gb on the sd card, although when I click on the sd card I am told that I am using 8.9gb.
When I first installed Lineage, the first thing I did (before even installing GApps) was to put the sd card in and when asked chose to format it as internal storage, so there was nothing to migrate, because none of the apps were installed.
The problem that I am having is that although the tablet days its using the sd card, it uses internal memory.

After more experiments I think I understand what the problem is.
Even though the OS says that it's using the sd card as internal storage, it doesn't.
I tested it by putting the sd card into a computer and seeing how much space was being used, the partition was encrypted, but based on the fact that it was less than 1gig, it is pretty clear that it did not store the 8gb of data as Android OS might have suggested.
So the question is, is Lineage OS unable to use SD Card as internal memory on Tab S8.4 because of hardware limitations.
Or is my tablet FUBR and it's time to let it rest and get a new one.
