[Q] Apps on "internal" Memory - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi folks,
how can I use the "internal" memory of the SGSII for apps?
APP2SD does not work, 'cause it tells me, that there is not enough space to move apps. It only works with a real SD card inside.
What can I do?
Thanks.
Ty

Try the search button instead of repeating the same old questions PLEASE .

I did! Can you provide a link or a hint what I should search for?
A search for "APP2SD" gave me no hits in the i9100 forums.
But you in your holy wiseness can tell me, right?

Okay thanks.
But the question is still unanswered. None of the threads gives a definitively answer, if there is a way to use the internal usb storage for apps or not.
As you see, for fhe Samsung Nexus S the internal memory is mounted to /mnt/sdcard, too and it works.
So it should be possible. But how?

Store apps on USB storage

I apologise if this a nooby question but I've searched and can't find anything. Is it possible to store the apps on the 16gb usb storage instead of device storage. I don't have a memory card cos i think the 16gb will be ample big enough.
Cheers

What do you mean? All your apps go on a different partition which is 2gb in size. I hope you are not talking about using apps2sd...

Oh rite thanks for clearing it up. Just on my old phone (n97) the device storage was different to the usb storage. If i use up more of the device will the phone run slower? Sorry for the questions just want to try and get the best out of the phone, thanks : )

well, the addiional 11GB of the internal memory is also mounted as "sdcard" (while the actual SD card looks like a standar folder on this partition called "external_sd"), but you won't be able to use it for applications via apps2sd... at least my stock rom doesn't allow this, that works only with the actual SD card.
Either way, the primary 2GB offers plenty of room except if you want to install the whole android market on it.
When I tried to install NavFree I got an error Not enough space.

[HELP PLEASE] Memory issues

I am trying to inastall an app (The Amazing Spiderman) and my phone keeps saying I don't have enough free space.
The problem is that my phone seems to be including my Ext SD card in my USB storage.
My USB storage is 11.49gb in total. In the Misc section it says that i'm using 12.47gb! (this is my external SD) and then is says I have 5.93 available at the bottom.
Somewhere my phone is getting very confused between my USB storage and my ext SD card.
Can somebady please help?
You need about 2GB of space for the game to install !
Here's a screenshot of my memory usage. So weird!

ExtSD2internalSD is the answer to your question mate.
Basically you're going to make your phone believe that your sd mem card is your internal and vice versa, worked like a charm for me running Jelly Bean 4.1.1 on my I9300 with a Class 10 samsung 64GB micro sd card.
Here's the link to the thread.
BTW, thanx to mattiadj for this awesome mod and hope this helped somehow & if it did please hit the thx button
Thanks a lot bro..... Now i got 29 gb internal......its cool.....

I read few pages of the topic and some people seem to say that it doesn't work anymore
You can also try link2sd app in play store

I have read this topic about moving apps to SD card, only read few pages but it seems that over 4.0 firmware, Google stopped it so you can't move apps to a second partition of SD card, correct me if I'm wrong,

How to move apps to SD card?

Hey guys I got a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7" and I'm trying to move my apps to SD card as my internal memory is almost full. I've tried some apps from Google play but none of them work with me. In settings/application manager there's isn't the option to move the app to external storage. How to solve this? Any help would be nice. (PS:sorry if this is the wrong area).

Not all apps can be moved to SD. There are system level apps which should stay in internal memory itself. Try app2sd or link2sd
umm, titanium backup pro
