You can't swap them like that but if you get root you can link folders and apps with directorybind, foldermount and link2sd.

i tried linking using link2sd but this is the error
/dev/block/: device not found
make sure you have two partitions on your sd card and both are primary

Try to use search first: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2078603

This method works for me

This is a "feature" of Android 4.x. While it's still possible to be done with external apps, the internal programm manager doesn't show this option anymore. Also it emulates an SD card which is actually a link to internal data folder, so a newer API is needed by apps to distinct internal SD card from the real external SD card.

Help please, can't move app to sd card

HI, I rooted my device and I download the app "move 2 sd" and he said that my device does not support .
And I have a sd card .
What I have to do ?!
Thanks .
Use foldermount to link any folder from internal sd to external sd.
Use link2sd to link installed apps to a 2nd partition on your external sd.
Is this the easiest method? I used apps2sd on all my other phones without issues. Can't move any apps to SD following any method on hete

Those other phones probably had its own partition for sdcard. Now it's most often in same partition an internal storage (/data) and emulates an SD (/data/media) . That's why it doesn't work as it used to do.

[Q] Apps to SD?

I'm running the Cyanogenmod 10.2 build on my international GT-I9295 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47615123). I cannot get apps to install to my SD card (a 64GB Samsung UHC-1 class 10 card) . I tried partitioning my SD card using gparted, creating a primary FAT partition and a primary ext2 partition. However I do not see an option to move my apps to sd; I also tried link2sd, and a few other apps, but none of them seems to be able to move my apps to SD. Has anyone succeeded at moving apps to their SD card?
Anyone?

[Q] Using sd card for internal and external storage

As we all know the android one comes with limited internal storage storage and media (pics,documents,videos) can only be stored on the external sdcard. On the forum there are various methods to swap storage size , however on doing so storage space for media will be limited to fixed 2 gb space currently available for internal storage. I was wondering if it is possible to partition a 32gb class 10 sd card and use 16 gb each for external and internal storage. I wouldn't mind if the internal phone storage would have to be abandoned in doing so.
Has any one successfully done this..
'
Yes you can do that using link2sd.
Check this out.
I have made a 4GB ext4 partition on my 16GB sd card and I keep all my apps stored in the 4GB partition. And 10GB is kept as media storage.

So download the zip file from the attachment. You will find link2sd app and a patcher that makes the app link2sd plus and is totally functional... And other things about link2sd is nicely explained in this site, https://awanstuff.wordpress.com/201...ink2sd-in-any-android-phone-with-screenshots/ Just keep in mind to create a ext4 partition instead of ext2 and you are good to go. And I would suggest you to use high speed sd cards preferably class 10 and higher if you want a smooth experience on your lollipop rom. I use class 10 ultra from sandisk. And my apps run buttery smooth...

Hi there.
After you make your SD card as adoptable storage, you have to go back to the Storage options and choose Move Data.
This will transfer all possible data from original internal phone storage to the new internal SD card storage.
Also have a good look at this awesome adoptable storage tool which enables you to create 2 partitions on the SD card, one for adoptable internal storage and the other partition for normal SD external storage allowing you as normal to use it to store music, pictures, videos, etc.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/auto-formatting-sdcard-to-internal-t3583875/page23
Alternatively if you are a root user, have a look at this amazing app which will allow you to link nearly all apps to your SD card and therefore free up most of your internal phone storage.
I personally bought the Pro version from Google Play because it is that good!

Enjoy!

If you have rooted phone you could partition your sd-card to ext4 and fat32(this partition works as normal memory card).
Then you could download app like Apps2sd or link2sd and link(move) apps into the ext4 partition of the sd-card.

Download Apps2sd https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.co.pricealert.apps2sd&hl=en
1. select link apps
2. Create mount script
3. Reboot
4. Link apps to sd card
Also 30GB is probably way more than you would need. Probably 2-10GB would be enough.
ok so it is better to use 10 gb for the ext4 ?
i have some question only one partition will be shown in the settings is it right ? alsow i have some trouble how i formate correc.t i have usen mini partition have made partition with fat32 and one with ext4
but when i look at apps2sd formating tool there will be 3 partitions created. one partition have name SWAP Partition. Do i need this ?
and is this tool : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/auto-formatting-sdcard-to-internal-t3583875/page23
agood way to formate ? or is my way with mini partition manager alsow good ?
and with mini partiton manager i made all partitions as primary is it okay ?
i have used this tool https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/auto-formatting-sdcard-to-internal-t3583875 then 2 partitions will be shown but not with the correct size ii habe a 64 gb sd card but my smartphone shows 40 gb and 35 gb Oo
