Storge in mobile as I see divided into :
1- 2 Gb internal (storage ) memory for apps.
2- 11.5 Gb ( USB storage ) for data what so ever.
3- SD card as a MicroSD (variable accroding to inserted one )
These 2 Gb storge is never enough for apps , its okay for a month or so , but by time it gets very low on space . and I have acouple of problems
first, these apps can not be moved to USB storage (expect for some partial data for some apps )
and moving them to MicoSD is so Laggy . espcially with a 32Gb class 4 MicroSD as mine .
apps get laggy , takes time to open , sometimes it is missing , etc..
I consider the SD card Non-stable storage anyway , plus It is removable , and I don not like the idea having some apps scattered around .
So I was asking is there is a way I could repartition the solid storage all of them ( all internal 14 Gb ) to Whatever I like .. just as the External Hard drives ? is there a kinda software on Win or somthing that I connect the device and format to Ext that works for android ?
i.e :
1- 8 Gb internal storage (or memory ) for apps so I don't have to delete any apps no more
2- 5.5 Gb as USB storge
I been through some solutions including DictionaryBind or some these apps or move2sd Apps also ,which doesn't cure the main problem which is the difference in Speed terms bettween Extrnal Class 4 and the High Speed internal storage and I not ready to buy expensive High speed class 10 MicroCard .
plus I need storage to be fixed so in any time I can remove the MicroSD without worrying losing data .
I been through some Custom Roms in which I couldn't find the solution either , ..
Anyways I'm A beginner here and it seems that I do not know much
hope you can Help Me guys here
Thanks In Advance.

I don't seem to understand well , but I took a quick look around in these topics , it 's very usefull I see , but it is about rooting and customizing Roms and basics in development , and I think I do not understand much of it . I 'm just satisfied with my basic knowledge now in these topics .
Is there a topic about how to increase internal memory that I've missed ?
All I was seeking is just increasing some space for Apps and system without adding a MicroSD card or move apps
and what do you mean by the USB storge is not part of phone storage ! so the phone storge divided into 2 separate (hardware) parts ?
So there should be a way to reformat the 11.5 Gb to make them system or something !
or am I just missing the point !
and what do you mean by the USB storge is not part of phone storage !
its a folder for use not a storage area .

Yes and getting in a mess just ignore USB storage its not a storage area for the phones data .

mmmmmm , now I got it , this a good thing to start with . it's a good solution I see .
I was just hoping for something like installing without having the option to move
, as by default , as flashing by odin for once so I don't have to move Apps again .
So far this is the best solution till now , I will download the App from the market and check its features and like
thanks alot
Link2SD it worked for once when using cyanogenmod 9 , Now with official ICS , error every time I try to move an app without MicroSd card installed .
it seems it moves it to the Micro Card only , not to internal storage .
any help ! did I mess something ?

thats because of the wrong pit file which is causing the problem for u
try flashing the correct pit file thro ODIN after checking 're-partition' and u will have ur fullsdcard size back

For the same reason that whenever you buy a external HDD or a SD Card its never the full amount you expected. Manufacturers use different scale to count a MB and GB then 99% of desktop/mobile OS's do.

HELLO TO STAFF
i hv hcl me u1 tablet. and it is behaving weird. last time i try to install a iron man 3 game and wont install so i get it at my shop.
(actually it belongs to my kids).. i do all reset. and delete things but nothing is working
i go in recovery and wipe formatt .. but nothing is being deleted.. all thing is as it is.
no new thing is being copy or being deleted in it..
so i open it and try to short it out. rediculously i found one more sd card of 4gb inside tablet chip.
i remove and put it in reader . connect to pc. it shows 1.8gb total and free around 800mb.
i guess rest of part is rom part in sd card bcouse without that memory chip tablet is not booting up. i replace another 4gb and 8gb but nothing working..
and i put back that sandisk 4gb back in hcl chip and it boots up as regular ...
problem is it is not being formated or not being hard reset in recovery.. i use MPTOOL . i updated with it. but nothing working out for new game or installations
for me the only solution left is to replace that 4gb SANDISK sd card which might cotain rom part..
so how to make that vimicro disk to make tab work normaly...
i attach the photo of board with sd card installed..
i hope some HCL GUY can help me..
solved hcl me u1
problem sloved
by updating with mptool with new sd card of 8 gb. in boot mode without sd card than insert sd card
it takes lot time and two time factory reset .. but working now but ram is as low below 300 mb
any body hv problem with hcl me u1 with hanging restarting or anything is not installing and deleting
change sd card of your choise 8gb or more and install rom
any question can ask me i just solved it

Similar problem in HCL ME V1, but no solution so far
Hi,
I have an HCL Me V1 tab. My problem is something similar to yours. I was copying an apk (FL Studio Mobile) and a folder related to it (extra downloadable contents) from my laptop to the tablet (from laptop to /sdcard/Android/obb). Basically I had downloaded the apk and dlc from Pirate Bay. I'm sure there was no problem with these files as I had not even run these files in the tablet when the problem started.
First my laptop got hanged, but somehow I disconnected the tablet safely. However after I rebooted the tablet, it got stuck in a loop in the boot screen. I tried resetting it but it did not work. Also for some reason I am not able to do a hard reset on that tablet. The device simply refuses. When I remove the external SD card, the device won't even start when I press the reset pin hole.
There is one peculiarity to my problem however. The power button has stopped working. I can only start the tablet by the reset pin hole. I am sure this is not a hardware issue as I am 100% positive the tablet did not experience any physical shock.
It is a rooted device with rooted apps. Android ICS 4.0.4, kernel 3.x.x.
I plan on doing exactly what you did, i.e. open up the device, get a new sd card, load the ROM on it and put it back in. However, can you suggest any other alternatives before I do that?
Thanks,
Pari
Thanks!
I once encountered the same problem exactly as you described, but the device was in warranty and the service center fixed it.
Now i know what was the issue.
Thanks for your efforts because the i believe that it will help everyone who owns it as it will encounter problems with the device as HCL fooled us everyone with this model.
hcl me u1 is acting like crazy.
Hello ,I'm Kaushik Chauhan.
i have hcl me u1 tablet.
it is behaving crazy.
I can't save data on it.
whenever I restart it ,it is reset.
I tried to do factory reset, but nothing is changed.
I have also opened it and take out that internal sandisk of 4 gb.
inserted it mmc reader and connect it to ubuntu.
however I am not able to mount it.
but I managed to view partitions on it.
to my surprize,
there are six(believe me) partitions.(thanks to DISK UTILITY)
1. maximum size 2.5 gb. which I see in.xplore.
2. system 700 mb
3. data 400 mb
4.tmp 40 mb
5. and 6 are unallocated (I think).
(I will upload screenshot of it.soon)
but I am not able to mount any of it.
that 2.5 gb is fat32 but when I tried to mount it I got some superblock type error.
what is the problem.
and why xplore (file manager) shows two sd cards each of size 2.5 gb.(and identical to one another in context of files and folder.)
however its spec says 4 gb.(I have not attached any external sd or pendrive)
so here is my sd card partitions::
1:: 2.6 GB FAT :: that is what i see in file manager:: I can mount it.
2:: 1.3 GB Extended :: What is it? . there is no option to Mount it in Disk Utility.(Only one option 'Delete Partition').
3:: 403 MB ext2 :: I cant mount it.
(Error :: "Error mounting: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda5, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so" )
4:: 786 MB ext2 Userdata :: same as system ("Error is also same")
5:: 67 MB ext2 cache :: same as system ("Error is also same")
6:: 34 MB unknown :: only three option (Format Voulme,Edit Partition,Delete Partition)
7:: 34 MB unknown :: same as above

Thank you i finally reset my internal sd card..but as you said my tablet is very slow and always hang then turn off..is there any way solve this problem?
@cyberking147.and mixxskratch, pborah88
my tab is again corrupted and not being reset or copy data or delete data from it... may b the reason i found out is tab stays non used or on low charge bettery
or the poor quality of sd card which i replaced..
i am willing to replace with the original sandisk or the samsung class 8 or something best quality with some warranty....
slow tab >>>it may b due to sd card becoz this fools install rom on sd card. can you believe it?? i was shocked
i will post results when i replace another sd card of samsung class 8 of 8gb..
one more thing you can also extend your internal memory of tab by replacing the provided 4 gb.. 8gb will give you 5 gb of free internal storage..
this may help those whose mmc slot and usb are not working
regards
skhan
sory for late reply coz i dont see any notification in msgs

Thank You...I replaced my internal 4gig sd card of 8gig.still it;s hang and slow

did you check the ram..
do you know the ram before?
there are options in selecting ram ,
if you hv flashed rom with 512 ram selection it will b slower .
there are two models they(hcl) hv launched. 1 512mb ram and 2, 1 gb ram...
1gb ram was lilttle more speedy than of 512.
go to settings and apps and check ram in RUNNING...
NOT MUCH WE CAN DO WITH IT. COZ ITS REALLY OLDIE
TRY TO FLASH WITH 1GB SELECTION , IF YOU GOT BOOT LOOP. HANG ON HCL LOGO THAT MEANS YOU DNT HV 1GB RAM MODEL. YOU HV TO FLASH IT AGAIN WITH 512 SELECTION
EVEN ONE OF MY FRIEND HV ONE GB CONFIGURATION WRITTEN ON BOX AND 512 IN DEVICE..

Hcl ME u1 hardware looks similar to BSNL penta is703c. I just installed the official stock rom of HCL u1 to my penta tab. IT does seem to work..
oh yeah, i changed SD card to 32 Gig...
using mp tool, try using different DDR settings.. (Check attachments)

go to settings > application manager> slide to see running app. at the bottom u can find the ram and the free ram and used ram
the tab only can support 1g ram if it is build with that . some tab come with 512 and some with 1g.b
so try various selection in mp tool > go to ddr setting. select elpida or micron wich supports u that u will have to find out. and be patient after flashing dont do any fulish. if it does not work it wil go in boot loop . just hcl and nothing. than try other selection like elpida or micron.
to go in boot loader mode u need to remove mmc and data cable and than
insert data cable nd press power on button u find the disk iand vdfu driver will install and than put 4 gb or 8gb mermoy card and flash it

HCL ME tablet U1
Sir,
My hcl tablet is behaving awkwardly. firstly, after every 4 to 5 weeks it starts hanging up and i have to send to centre to fix it. secondly, Everything gets stopped be it settings, gallery, file manager or anything and i have to factory reset it and loose every game i installed. But curiously this time i dont know what happened and i cant even factory reset it! it just reboots and nothing else. Even when i uninstall an app, it reboots again and what i see is that the app hasn't been uninstalled and it appears again! the only thing that works at its best is the calculator.
Suggest me what to do.
Hoping a reply as soon as possible
Thank you

HCL me u1 WILL NOT RESET anymore..
Hey Everybuddy, ( Frusteted with HCL ME U1)
This is KAUSHIK CHAUHAN
I have solved the problem of it being reset evertime we restart it.
things you need ::
1 :: A new MicroSD card ( I prefer (actually used ) Sandisk Mobile Ultra 8gb Class 10).
I brought it from Flipcart for just Rs.340 .
2 :: Stock ROM for our tab , Dont download any other rom they have some performance issue
Here is Link :: xww.hclsupportservice.in/Drivers%5CFamily%5CTablet%5CCategory%5CHCL_ME_Tablet%5CU1%5CImage%5CU1_0421_Image.rar
3 :: A PC running windows.
After Having these 3 thing ....
Steps ::
1 :: take rear cover of tab , take that metal cover over circuit.
see that sandisk microsd 4 gb ?
that's the problem ! take it out.
and put new sd card there.
now fit rear cover again as it was .
DONT TRY TO TURN ON THE TAB
on to the computer ::
connect tab with pc via USB cable. (in Switched OFF state.)
U should see a new drive in my computer (dont open and close that popup window)
2 :: Extract file U1_0421_Image.rar
:: open mptool.exe ( I prefer run as Admin.)
:: U should see the message "1 device reddy".
if not Dont Worry .
3 :: then go to the setting on mptool.
select the "vortex.pak" for PAK File.
now the tricky part : Carefully
look at your tab specs ,
If it says RAM = 1 GB
then In partition setting set System(MB)=1024
and DDRtype = elpida 8bit 1024
If it says RAM = 512 MB
then In partition setting set
System(MB)=512
and DDRtype = elpida 8bit 512M
DONT TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE !
4 :: OK done ? then Save it .
5 :: now click on scan if it doesn't say "1 Device Reddy".
6 :: click on Update.
7 :: wait and let it complete.
8 :: now tab must be restart automatically. It will take some time for first boot so dont panic.
I hope u now have a working tab.
open apps and u will see "Market"
thats it !
Nowadays HCL is providing market app with new tab (I have not when i purchased it).
now it has market not play store
and it will not update itself.
so,
Find any android device with Google Play Store inbuilt.
open xplore on it (if it doesnt there just download it (nearly 2 mb))
in config set root = normal works on all device.
now go to /system/app
copy "vending.apk" file to sdcard and send it to OUR HCL ME U1 tab and install it .
after a network connection it will update itself.
and u can enjoy working latest play store.
thanks for reading..
Thanks a lot for your help

hcl me u1
how to install new rom in 8gb sdcard in hcl me u1
I got a wondermedia tablet the tablet is of mid quality I didn't want the tablet for hardcore stuff but it does its work..... The problem is that I have 8 GB internal memory and it looks like it has been divided into two parts the first part is internal memory and the second is sd-card ...... I haven't put an SD-card yet in the device so that's pretty awkward so whenever I try to install an app it goes in the internal memory which reads 2.0 GB and in apps manager it reads 1.0 GB and there is also is ROM disk which I think is the sd-card so....... My question is how can I use my whole 8 GB storage? I mean if I can't use the whole 8 GB I want to at least use the bigger ROM disk or SD-card or what ever it's name is I will attach some screenshots so you guys would see what I am talking about
Could anyone help ????????
