By default, internal memory call is "sdcard" and sdcard will call "ex-sdcard" , so, apps will install on "sdcard". it make internal memory get low when i install some apps with big data.
Now, my sdcard is free to 3,5Gb but i can't install any app because "sdcard" is full :crying:
anyone can help me solve this ?

The phone has the internal memory mounted on /sdcard, and the external sd card mounted on /sdcard/external_sd.
Many apps save their data on /sdcard, so in the internal memory.
I used this script to mount the data from my external sd to the right location (you need root and busybox):
Code:
busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/Android/data /sdcard/Android/data
Code:
busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/Android/obb /sdcard/Android/obb
This will move the data to the external sd. To move the app (apk file) you should use something like this:
Code:
busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/data/app /data/app
I'm using ScriptManager to run the scripts at boot.
Why on earth would LG release the phone like this? It makes sd cards useless. Apps don't use the sd card at all and install extra data to the tiny internal storage itself which is only 2Gb. I can't even download offline maps because I don't have enough space. Has LG acknowledged the problem? I'm going to return this phone because of this

Is this software "DirectoryBind" also works with latest Lg L9.. .?? I haven't rooted yet but if it works well, then I'll definitely root. I only root my phone bcoz of moving apps from phone external sd card. Currently Lg L9's root is temporary only, So what the differnce will I face when working on phone (rooting just bcoz of moving app), plz reply ASAP

LG added Apps To SD
Hi Friends,
I had decided to root my LG L9 once my warranty period gets over to get App to SD functionality added.
But now LG has incorporated this functionality in its May, 13 's Software update.
So now no need to root any more.
Just go and update your OS using "Software Update" and use App to SD functionality in "App Settings"
Don't forget to click on Thanks button.
Enjoy :good: :laugh:

I looked for a software update. I'm up-to-date. Can't move anything and can't find App to SD functionality in "App Settings". I would love to do this. I went from a phone with more space to this one and it's driving me batty that I have to uninstall 3 apps I'd kind of like to keep to update one I really want to keep. I got my LG Optimus L9 in July 2013 and it almost immediately had a software update. I would appreciate any help if this is at all possible without rooting.

My phone is updated. A bit more detail in the instructions would be very helpful. I'm tired of running apps serially (one after the other) because I have to uninstall one to install another. Either that, or instructions on how to increase the internal memory on the L9 would be very helpful.

Installing to sd card I have no solution for, but moving apps to sdcard (which is as good a solution as any) is simple to do with stock software. Go to your standard file explorer. It takes you default to external sd (being your external sd card) and sdcard0 (being your phone's internal memory).
You then tap on sdcard0; it shows you all the folders present there. At the bottom you see an Icon depicting a sdcard with an Arrow to it. As you want to move apps to your sd card you tap on it and it shows all your folders with a White empty Square. You then tap all the apps you want to move to your card and tap on "move" at the bottom. That takes you back to the startscreen with external card and sdcard0. You then tap on your external card and "paste". Job done!
Good luck!!
Hi guys. I've an LG L9 rooted (p760) and I've tryed to move app to sd but ICS doesn't have this feature. So I've enabled init.d support, installed S2E (system app) and copy '20userinit' into init.d folder, but S2E still doesn't work. The init.d folder has this files: 00test; 08setperm; 20userinit;
How can I do? thanks
Hello Buddy,
You cannot move apps to sd, while your on ics. To move aaps to sd you will have to switch to jelly bean, or there is a script to exchange memories, you can use that one also.

Yes I think I'll use the script.. thanks

I'm using the Link2SD app on my rooted P769 10g. If you have CWM recovery installed you can boot into that, go to recovery, and choose to partition the SD card. I chose 1024 for my EXT2 partition, 0 for the swap, and the rest is FAT32. I wish I had chosen something bigger for the partition. I may need to back up the data and repartition if I keep installing apps and games.
I had through about using the script with exchanges memories and opted against it. Now I see it is probably a better method as I'm sure I'm filling up my memory by snapping pictures, etc.

hi bro i have got an l5, you can move app on your external sdcard with link2sd(you must have root and a second partition on sd)
if you an move directory(i use it for obb files) you can use LUCKYPATCHER with directory bind function

connect your microsd to your pc with phone o with an adapter(better)
you can partition your sdcard with a partition manager, for example:
easus partiion manager, gparted...
you must have 2 partion 1-for apps(ext4) and 2-for your data(example music,photos...)
I don't have card adepter. Is there any way to do this? Please help. I have a little space on Internal memory.

Root your phone if you haven't already and install FolderMount, since the other options haven't worked for you. I use that and it's fine.
Hi guys,
Since the P710 have a tiny space for system, i cant install a large game such as Asphalt. Could someone get more internal free space? I use to do with link2sd and sdmerge in the past while i using LG E400. But i dont find any sdmerge method or link2sd for LG L7 II P710. It would be good if someone here knows that.. looking forward for answer guys.. thanks before

Well, I do use Link2SD plus (the pro version of Link2SD - costs $2) on my P714 without any issues and it resolved the internal space issues I had had perfectly. The advantage of Link2SD plus on the free version is that it allows you to link also the application data to the SD (i.e. move the data to SD and make the app think it's still on the internal memory).
You just need to repartition your SD card to have an additional ext2/3/4 partition for the apps you move to your SD. If you need some guidance doing so, I can give you a complete guide here.
the other thing you can do also is deleting system/apps that you dont need,sounds,etc,
Titanium Backup
Use Titanium Backup to integrate updates into the ROM system.
Making space on /data and occupy the available space in /system (not accessible to the User)
