hey since this is a software based solution, won't it increase the ram usage? also i use my storage card to store programs too, so wont it affect the programs functionality if it compresses it....that means a slower device too? right?
where to install - main mem or storage card?
this questionable software was released in 2005. five years ago. I bought it for my ppc and it worked crap so i got a refund.

:?: Hello All; I am about to get and O2 XDA in a few days; I have read manuals and web sites on the memory management, I understand the Main programme sits in ROM and programs in RAM, however want to know if applications run in Ram only, or if you can get them to run in the additional storage card. (i.e. SD/MMC)
In other words, are the expansion cards for backups and document/file storage, or is it extra RAM to install & run applications.
Thanks for your help
Jed
Hello Jed.
Most of the programs do also work from the SD/MM-Card.
You can use the expansion for backup, data storage and "program place".
Regards
Stefan
No.. sorry. Programs can be stored on the SD card, however, they cannot run on them. Clear?
What I mean is, that you can install you apps onto an SD card, but when you run them they are loaded in to the built in 'managed' RAM. Unfortunately this is finite, and also is the only place that contacts, tasks, and appointments can be stored.
So, to those who have a 32Mb XDA, don't let O2 fool you by telling you it is easy to upgrade your XDA to 64Mb with a SD card - it's not quite the same.
There are other upgrade options available.
I bought A Sandisk 1GB Mini SD Card off of ebay for $10
-just the the card no card reader, or adaptor of any sort.
I insert it into my wizard, and it fits it with the spring loaded mechnism fine, but when I go to memory managment, im not sure if it knows it's there or not
Memory management will say that, that "external storage": "Not Installed"?
But when I go to take pictures, I go to the utilities/options menu, then general tab, and it doesnt even acknowledge that theres their a card in the slot, only seeing system memory.
So my question is, are their any programs that can/will format my card, or implement something to make it work?
I have Total Commander(not installed), and thinking about downloading this program called "SKTools". Would these programs work.
Cause not only is this a brand new card, but i have pictures and programs that I want to get installed on this device.
-Ive already amazed myself by using the Lockiwiz, to unlock my phone(having only 2-days worth of exp with a smartphone device)
-taken a few pictures, which i have to downloading off my wizard through activesync
-An some other freeware programs that want to install themselves on the system memory
Please help, all/ and any post greatly appreciated
Thanks!
EDIT: I downloaded SKTools onto my device, and its a cool program( I think its a alternate version of total commander but you pay for it?), but it doesnt recognize my Mini SD card either!!
-I also found this program called "WM5Storage", in the description it say that it's specialty is dealing with "external storage", downloading/ and uploading without the need of activesync?

I had the same problem.
The only thing that worked on my sd-card was to clean it with an sd-card reader that was pluges in too my computer.
PS. I hope you understand, my english is not so good.

got some tricks up it's sleve
jus using card reader to format it to fat 32 format then is ok.
your only option is, which has already be said,is to format the card with a card reader. WM5Storage when activated allows your phone to become a usb storage device that can be plugged into any pc without the need for active sync to be installed. you can then see the contents of the sd card, but as your wizard cant even see the sd card that wont work either,nor will any other program you install.
Either the card is incompatable or it needs to be formatted
The best option to format any SD or MiniSD is into Digital Camera.
Hi Everyone,
I am a proud owner of an Atrix 4G today. First time user of the Android system. Finally left Windows Mobile. I also have purchased a Patriot microSDHC 32GB Class 10, LX Series card.
I have done some research about formating but I keep seeing different answers about file structure and cluster size and even the software partition program to use. I would like to verify and pinpoint the best way to format for the Android 2.2 operating system for the Motorola Atrix 4G. Goal is to have best overall performance for Speed & Stability.
1. What is the correct file structure? FAT, FAT32, NTSF, EXT2
2. What is the correct cluster size? 1kb, 2kb, 4kb, 8kb, 16kb, 32kb
3. What software program to use? I was about to use Mini Tool Partition Wizard (free) but I read that I should use a more specific program to format called the SD Formatter 3.0 (free)........... http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter_3
Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you.
Can't this just be formatted in the Atrix itself? I haven't had any trouble doing that.
There is a custom recovery in the Dev section and you can format and partition SD cards. I accidentally did that to my INTERNAL memory and it's fubar'd even after flashing (guess it doesn't touch that part of the device).
Make sure not to format the internal memory like I did lol
Hi there
Thanks to all you good people out there sharing knowledge all over the internet, I have managed to successfully install Android-x86-RC2 on my Asus S400CA Ultrabook! :good: (It comes rooted with superuser)
I want to keep things simple. Avoiding anymore dual-boot disasters, Android install and boot from an external disk is safe and easiest thing I could do.
Currently running Android from an external 150GB USB Mass Storage Disk.
(This disk is partitioned. Android is on a 10GB partition. I can change this as per your suggestions using MiniTool on Windows 8.1)
Key Problem - Unable to use any other storage, other than the 2047MB created during the install.
I'll be happy to buy an independent higher capacity SD card, as long as it works!
I tried with a 1GB SD card. Partitioned (100MB Fat32, 880MB ext2) and also unpartitioned. Android mounts the card. Link2SD fails to move apps.
(SD card gets mounted under USB storage in the settings).
If you people can help me sort this one thing out, I'll be so so very thankful....
.....cause without storage all my efforts will become complete waste.
(Installing Asphalt 8 requires 1.4GB space, which fell short of 35MB space. And that's just one game.)
Everything is in working order! - All hardware, including touch screen, SD card reader, WiFi Wireless adapter, Xbox Wireless USB Controller, Bluetooth 4.0 adapter (multiple connections - Sony mouse VGP-BMS33, and Plantronics earphones).
Bluetooth was really annoying since it failed to pair everytime. Thanks to 'Bluetooth Auto Connect' app from Play Store sorted this issue.
Haven't tested webcam and I can't go any further...
I am out of space.... but I can't give up just yet.... PLEASE HELP
SOLVED...!
Android x86 RC1, RC2 and r1, all have similar behaviour! It really depends on the type of partition format you use.
FAT32, FAT and NTFS will limit the internal memory to 2047MB. Ext3 and ext2 partitions however create internal memory using the whole partition space.
Kindly note: Do no use Android installers' paritioning. Instead use third party tool like MiniTool Partition Magic from your Windows environment to partition and prepare the disk for installation. (During R&D I formatted ext3 partitioned disk with NTFS formatting using Android installer. When I went back to do another install, I found that disk was still showing Linux! So used MiniTool for formatting...)
Hope this helps someone...
I formatted SD card as internal storage (Android 6.0) and it is confusing...
I read that when the SD card is formatted as internal storage, it is also encrypted, so it can't be accessed trough windows for file transfer (if not rooted). OK, so I thought, there must be some practical way to transfer files such as books, movies, music, etc. from PC to SD card...
I tried to make some folder (for instance, BOOKS) on my tablets internal memory, transfer the files in that BOOKS folder, then move that BOOKS folder to SD card. But, I can't find the location of the SD card, so there is nowhere to move that BOOKS folder.
1) What is the SD card folder location, if there exists one?
2) Is there some practical way to transfer files from PC to SD card?
3) What does "Migrate data" option actually migrates, APK's, pictures, videos,...? And how does it decide what is suitable for migration, on what criteria?
4) Is there a way to pick which files would be transferred to SD card?
You correctly pointed out that the systems treats the SD card like internal storage. If your smartphone is running and you connect it via an usb cable to your pc, you will only see one folder. You can now copy something to your device and it is on your device. Basically, "SD card like internal storage" means that your internal storage has been extended by your SD card.
Simply said, there is only "one" storage. Your SD card ist now part of the internal storage. Usually, this is a great advantage as it takes away the limitations of a small internal storage.
However, the downside is:
- you must not take the SD card out of the phone and copy something. This will break the memory.
- you cannot pick what is stored where - Android decides this.
- you can only copy something to the pc via usb cable, bluetooth or network, you must not take the sd card out of the device.
The upside is:
You can stop worrying about where to copy what - Android decides this for you. So lean back and enjoy your new memory capabilities.

Thanks for the reply. I converted it to portable storage as I find it much more convenient. With adoptable storage, the biggest downside is, as you mentioned, that I can't pick to choose what can I store on my SD card. Dedicated SD card is not an issue, as I never (and a vast majority of users) wanted to pull it out of device.
Migrate data is a terrible option, almost no control, undefined behaviour. Generally, the way that Google engineers handled the adoptive storage option is amateurish.
Also, I noticed now, why did they remove the sort by size and sort by date filters in settings--->apps on Android 6.0???

You are right, I just had a look at my Nexus 7 running lineageOS 14.1 (Android 7.1): you cannot sort the apps by size. Don't ask me why.
