I obviously have space aplenty (otherwise I would not have posted): more than 1.5 GB phone memory, almost 4GB internal SD, 8GB external SD.
I was ok with stock 2.3.6, now with CM7.2 (2.3.7) I'm getting those warnings having restored the backup of roughly 1/3 of the apps I had before!
What's going on here?
Thx in advance.
Edit: /datadata partition was full (guess a backported funcionality from ICS?), solved with this script:

Why 4.0.4?
Why are you on 4.0.4? There are more ROMs out there with better performance. Try OmniROM 4.4.2. And yeah, You did move your apps to your SD card right? If your SD card is full, you will have to buy a new SD card and start with that. But, The Internal SD Card is at higher priority over the External one. So, find another vold.fstab file for your phone, which helps change this priority.
Hit Thanks if it helped!

Hi.
Im running miui rom in my optimus 2x.
I have 3 options to storge.
Phone storage about 1 gb
Sd card storge about 5 gb
And external sd card about 16 gb
The problem is that basically i cant use the external sd card for apps and games,
i try all the move to sd card apps on market and all of tham only move from my phone storage to my sd card, so basically i only have 6gb in my phone.
Is there anyway to move tham to my external??
Tnx.
hmmmmm...
on cm you have an option to do so (settings/cyanogenmod/applications/use external sd for media)
but i don't know if miui has it too. Try looking for something like that
I looked everywhere, there isnt an option like this.
If you don't mind me asking, are you really out of storage to install apps?
Because o2x has an app storage space of 1.5gb excluding the internal 5gb flash memory, and most heavy games will store their game data on the 5gb internal flash mem, and only the basic apk will resides on the app space.
Running out of storage space is really hard achieve since even the heaviest game only consumes like 100mb? Which is mostly stored in the 5gb space. Unless you have hundreds of high end games installed, then you can run out of space .
All the new games need to download between 400-900 mb each, so yeah i runnig out of storge
Alright then, my mistake.
Anyway, I read that to swap sdcard as _externalSD vice versa is via CM7, I am not really sure how because I'm not using it, but I definately read about it before and it is doable. Hopefully someone can help you on the how..
Cheers!
there is a script for miui to swap so your microsd to become /sdcard check the android development

Tnx alot, that fix my problems.
Hi there, I know that theres a lot of posts on this forum regarding this issue but i didn't find comprehensive answer to how to move Apps to an External SD card on the G Note.
I'm not an expert with Android as I am in the transition from the iPhone, but I'm not too much of a noob as I have a bit of knowledge due to hacking and jailbreaking with the iPhone.
Now here is my problem. I have a lot of Apps that are hogging my storage and I have come to a point where I cannot install anymore Apps. When I try to copy it to the external SD card (16gb Class 10), it is actually copying it to the internal SD card. I have tried all those Apps like App2SD and I still haven't had any luck. I even tried all the tutorials on this site and still no luck.
I know there are easy methods with Froyo, but I don't want to downgrade as I am currently on "ICS(4.0.4) Stunner Beta 5.0" and it runs like a dream on the Note! If worse case scenario that I have to downgrade to achieve this, the lowest I will go back to is a factory rooted Gingerbread.
Even when I was on factory rooted Gingerbread I still had this same problem before the upgrade.
Right now the only way is to edit vold.fstab file but that will cause bigger issues with ICS and Stunner in particular
Your best hope is wait for a new version of Stunner where the internal sd card is mounted @ /mnt/emmc and the external sd card is mounted @ /mnt/sdcard and that should solve your issues completely
I read Neo talking about it and I think he will implement this structure in the next release
Thanks for the quick reply! Thats great news.. If i have to wait for a Stunner update, is there another ICS or Gingerbread release or tweak that could fix this?

I have micromax funbook with ICS 4.0.3..in my tablet internal sd card is mounted @ /mnt/sdcard and the external sd card is mounted @ /mnt/extsd - Even I need a solution as most HD games are huge and its usable internal memory is only around 2gb.
In my friends Samsung Galaxy S external sd card was mounted as "sd card" and we were able to move installed apps to 16gb memory card need this fix.

GL to SD. Basically it can move all/selected gameloft games to EXTERNAL SD card
Dont forget to thank if it works!!
Any solutions?
It has been 2 years. Has anyone found a solution to transfer huge games from internal SD card to external SD card..?

Try searching re-partitioning your internal memory. It increases your current 2 GB Max internal memory to 4-6-8-10 GB by reducing your internal sd card. This way you can install many apps without having to move it here n there. thread is by @metalgearhathaway.
A problem
Actually, i modified the vold.fstab file and partially bricked my tablet. It gets stuck on the booting logo and recovery console seems to be useless because the wipe data/factory reset option doesn't work. It's an A23 based 7 inch tablet for which i'm unable to find a ROM to flash it with. Any help would be appreciated. Or is there any way to re-modify the vold.fstab file to the old state? Or to reset the ROM?
Any Way To Swap Internal With External Memory On Last JB 4.3 ??

any help here ? same question
I'd like to know this too
Hey,
I've looked through the forums but don't seem to find a definite answer. I have a rooted (with towelroot) Xperia V, with latest official nordic update.
So as we know, the big problem with Xperia V is that no matter how big external SD card you have, you cannot install APK's on it, making you run out of space real quick. The 2GB internal extended memory shows as "SD Card" to most software and the installers. Also, many apps don't let you explicitly define the location for file saves, so the 2GB will be used for caching etc on many occasions. Moving software to "SD card" in app settings as you would normally do on Android actually just moves between the internal extended memory and phone memory, but not the actual SD card.
I want to install my APK's on the SD card, and only keep minimum stuff on the internal 2GB. How do I do this? Can I make the phone not use the 2GB and instead use the 32 gig SD card I have in my phone? Can I somehow move the already installed apps to the actual SD card as well, or do I have to reinstall them?
I have been messing about with my Exhibit 4G, updating it from the stock Gingerbread ROM to Cyanogen Unofficial 11 (KK 4.4). What can I say, it is like a new phone! So a big thanks to all those who write the mods and especially those who write clear and detailed instructions on how to do it!
My remaining frustration is SD storage. Do the apps that swap internal SD and external SD work with this configuration and, if so, which one should I install? Like a lot of people, I have a nearly empty external SD with LOTS of storage and a nearly full internal card and I have run out of apps that I can transfer to the external card.
On second thought
Disregard the previous message as I don't think SD card storage is the issue. I took a harder look into CM 11 and it seems my Phone storage is the one maxed out, not the internal SD. I suspect that pretty much ends the discussion as I don't think there is a way to expand that, correct? I have moved all apps that allow me to move them to the SD so unless there is a way to force the remainder to move, I think I am stuck.
The other option is to nuke CM 11 and replace it with SlimKat and a stripped down version of the Google KK apss. Does anybody know how much phone memory that saves?
Hello I am wondering is it possible to use cm11 on my galaxy ace and at the same time to use my sd card second partition as phone internal storage for apps but I do mean like litteraly as internal storage and not using apps like app2sd end etc..
I mean like Ultimatum mod
I am using Ultimatum mod on my ace right now but it only offers cm7 if I am not mistaking..
I would like to use cm11 or cm10 or any better more stable cm and this kind of kernel which allowes me to use sd 2nd partition as phone internal storage is that possible?
So what I basicly want is android kit kat or even better lolilop combined with option to use sd card partition as phone internal memory
Or if you know any rom which is EXTRA stable and lag free which can supply me with my need to have 2nd sd card partition as my phone internal storage so I can have ton of apps
