My phone is not rooted so some app for that

Bought moto e.. Hmm seems that you can't swap internal to extarnal as there no partition between data & internal SD . so no way .. Even cm or any ROM can't able to do so.. Only one way I think to ask Motorola for a new firmware where data and internal SD card are different path not emulated

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.

[Q] need help!

Hello guys,i have strontium 64GB MicroSD,i want to use it on moto e,Motorala's forum confirmed that device can run larger cards than 32 GB but needs to be formatted!, but actually i don't want to format it in fat32 file system(due to it's 4gb restriction,and also i can't as it's 64GB using windows ) and due to licence restrictions exfat,ntfs support is not available in Android's kernel, So guys is their any other way to support such file systems?
I heard cyanogenmod's kernel supports exfat,ntfs..but it's not available on moto e...guys please help!

Well I did this and found it only mounts NTFS formatted sdcard at a particular location, system still didn't recognize it ,so no apps can be moved to SD....I custom kernel can fix it..... I hope to we'll get one... ?

Actually i mean that after formatting to ext4, Android doesn't read it as external SD.I have installed Minitool partition in my PC. [emoji6],All i need is custom kernel for stock rom with exfat or ntfs support...
I think you are confusing two issues here. First is the inability of the moto E to recognize exfat SD cards because Motorola didn't pay the license fee like other companies. For instance the first notification you get if you put a 200 GB SD card into a Blackberry DTEK 50/60 series phone is that MicrosfotExfatforBlackberry (which is the driver that allows the phone to recognize high capacity cards) is downloading and installing.
The second issue is moving applications to an SD card. That ability was severely restricted by Google with the advent of android 4.
Your best option to deal with the second issue is to go to settings-applications and move whichever apps allow you to move them on an individual basis.
Remember that as capable as the E is, it is still a budget phone and won't have the same features a flagship like the DTEK 60 or Pixel does.

[Q] Moto E SD card restrictions

Hi guys! First time here. I have a few questions about Moto E.
I frequently use apps like Airdroid and Software Data cable to transfer my stuff to and from my computer. Transferring to computer works like a charm, but since the internal memory is only 2.4GB(1.3 already used), I cannot transfer files which are pretty huge. The SD card restrictions found in Kitkat does not allow me to copy files directly to External SD card. Is there any way I can change the restrictions without rooting my phone? Thanks in Advance.
I get the following error:
No fix without root that I know of...
...well, you could install a custom recovery, mount /system RW and replace the framework with one patched to remove the restriction, but I guess the effort isn't worth it except as a personal challenge!

I was actually concerned about copying large files from computer to SD card using airdroid. Like for example, if i want to copy a 4 gb file, i can't do it without a data cable or card reader. But i don't know if we can put app data in Sd card. I had to stop playing dead trigger 2 because of low storage? Do you think it's possible to put obb's in SD card in moto e?

Xinternalsd Not Working!

Hi, I rooted my Moto E yesterday with the intention of installing apps directly to sd as the moto e offers only very low internal storage. I installed the xposed framework and also installed xinternalsd but I could not get it work. The internal SD card path is set to "/storage/sdcard1" and i have checked the options "Custom path to internal SD card" , "Enable for all apps", "Include system apps" and "Full acess to external sd card" and still it doesn't work.
Isn't it how XinternalSd is supposed to work(Apps install directly to extsdcard)?...Or am i doing something wrong?....Any help would be much appreciated.

I think you mistaken. It not install app to sd. It makes Apps's data to be stored in Sd Card for E.G lets say u hv a big game the game apk stays in phone but its data obb will stay in Sdcard rather than phone. For stability of phone dint enable for system apps and all apps buy select ony Apps one by one u want..

Whatsapp hogs a lot of space on my phone, so I moved its data to the external SD card and then selected Whatsapp from the list of enable for apps in xinternalsd. But Still it doesn't do what it promises..

Moto E Marshmallow: Use SD card as internal space.

Hey guys,
I installed CM13 on my Moto E condor and formatted my SD card as internal space. I currently have 13GB of internal space and I installed a few games and now it is showing internal space is running out. I can see from ES explorer I have lots of free space. I can't install apps from Google play store and from apks too. Please help.
Please help if there are any other apps which can do this. I tried using Link2SD but that is showing as "Mount script cannot be created. mount:'/dev/block/vold/179:66'->'/data/sdext2': No such file or directory".

Yes there is but some apps can't be moved to the sd card and if they are moved they stop working...so i suggest you to move only the movable apps throught the settings
If you want to use link2sd, Mount scripts using app2sd than use link2sd..m on 22nd build of cm 13, and m using app2sd:all in one tool
It works perfectly..!?
Hope , I helped you!
