Did you format your sd card as fast 32?
I got it to recognize now, but it the Play Music app doesnt see the music. I set it to On Device Only.
Halp?

Mine came preset as exfat, I left it that way and it works fine.
Why is everyone suggesting fat32?
Mine is exfat and its fine. I figured it all I out. The problem was with Play music. I cleared data and it picked it up great.
Now how can I set everything to download to a specific folder on the sd?
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda app-developers app
From what I've read (I could be off-base), exfat is fine for TouchWiz but CM and possibly other AOSP roms will only recognize fat32 (or at least will recognize fat32 but not exfat).
When I tried flashing CM on this phone to test it out, it could not recognize my sdcard which is formatted as exfat but Beans (which is TouchWiz based) reconizes it fine. This would appear to support what I have read but your milage may vary.
Sent from my SCH-I605
just wanted to clear up a couple things...if you flash cwm recovery or a aosp rom then you will need to format the card to fat32...exfat is fine on stock. I was assuming the op was using a custom recovery, my mistake.
Cwm and aosp should get with the program and support exfat. Fat32 has a file size limit of 4gb and exfat does not.
I have around 3gb free of internal storage. How is everyone managing their storage? Are yall using any apps to delete cache files? Refer to the pic for what my storage looks like.

Not many big apps installed eh?
Install a couple big games and watch internal storage go bye-bye. So much for letting the OS do its thing.
I use DirectoryBind to redirect big apps to my sdcard. App isn't perfect, but it works.

Actually I thought I had a decent amount of apps installed. I have 16 games but I dont play the big ones usually since I hate most on screen controls. Thanks for the app though.

Some larger games have the option within the game itself; Bard's Tale for example. The option was offered when downloading the 1.8 GB datafile. The game still partly installs to the internal sdcard.

How'd you get Miscellaneous files so low? I have system memory in miscellaneous files. That can't be moved can it?
Not sure, but it may be because I am on Sprint and have android 4.1.1. If you notice, my 16 GB internal memory is reported as 10.95 GB. The other screenshots from VZW report the full 16 GB.

So if you were to flash an aokp or cm rom will you still have sd swap or will it revert back to its original form.

Hi,
Just handed my XZU for nearly 2 weeks now. Really loving it, great companion for my Xperia Acro S.
We know that XZU only available in 16gb of internal memory and expandable via SD card. But i face a little issue with the internal capacity, now i am using 75% of the memory - i install pretty much big games, and it continues to keep on growing --"
With that pattern of usage, i guess moving big apps to sd card will help, but i cannot find the "move to external memory" option inside the app detail. Is it possibble to move the app to sd card? Do i need to root my device?
Your responds are highly appreciated. Thank you.

It is possible. I Had same problem and I could not find any SW which does not need root. Bud finaly I had to rood my ZU and now I use GL2SD app which works great also with non GL games
Ah, thanks for your reply. So, i need to root my XZU then, but it appears to be an uncomfortable option to me. Let's hope this will be enabled in the future update

App to SD only allows you to more the akp as far as I'm aware? Foldermount will let you move any folder, including game date to the external.

Just to clarify. So this GLtoSD will move data to external SD but new installation will always install to internal SD ?

my ultra have root with 360root
App2SD and GL2SD
My Xperia Z Ultra is NOT rooted
App2SD: Not supported
GL2SD: Requires root
This means, No Go....
Safe bet you will need root access for any on these apps to work. Rooting is easy, but it's your personal choice if you do it. Plus you always get the choice if which apps to grant access to so security should not really be a concern.

Mine reboots too... but to install remount-reboot we need to have a working CWM, which is not the case...
Or, install it through a PC, but it drives me mad not being able to do everything on my device instead of depending on a computer.
We'd need something like Mobile Odin Pro for Samsung... isn't it possible to do something like that? Just a question, I don't know if it would be science fiction... :silly:
Hello, I'm sorry this topic is ready posted, but I can't find what my friend is having problem with. She has an Xperia U and she can't take pictures because it says that the SD card is full, she doesn't have a lot of apps or pictures though. She restored it to the factory setting a month ago and now the same problem. This is an image if her setting menu, please help and thanks.

Ask your friend to backup all important stuff in the internal storage and format it. Format via the phone not the pc.

How to format via the phone? She already restored it to the factory setting from the phone. And how can she backup all the pictures and videos? Transfered them to a PC?

Yes, transfer to a pc. Format the INTERNAL STORAGE not FACTORY RESET. See the clear internal storage button in the above screenshot? Click it after backing up.

1. Clearing the internal storage does not clear stuff like messages and contacts

Do full backup with PC Companion.
Some apps save data in SD card like backup % restore (the one that come with the phone) so this will be lost.
You can see with PC what is on SD card and copy things that are inportant.

Well she can fry and delete files, when connecting to PC or with the file manager she has on the phone.
What android version is it, Ginger Bread??
connect to pc and just delete all the unwanted file from the internal memory only. What big deal? If you still need the file, just backup it. I believe all the file must be from whatapps media folder, check that folder.
back up the pics videos or something else she needs, then format the SD card.
Backup all your files on the sd card and format it
copy all the internal storage to a folder on your pc. then right click that folder and properties and see if it actually is 3.8gb

+1 I love that app and bought it as well.
There are three ways you can do this:
1. Download and run link2sd- you should be able to download games straight to external memory.
2. Throught apps in settings- go to your apps, click on the app you want to send, and click move to SD card.
3. Through settings- you can go to the settings (Idk what section it is under) and change the installation place from internal memory to external memory.
Good luck and I hope this helps!
