Hi there.. i just bought SGG2 3 days ago.. and I found out the internal space only 5gb for usage..
since u said SGG2 uses a fstab.qcom file,not vold.fstab... can we confirm that this phone also can swap from external into internal?
I did that method on my Galaxy R i9103.. plugged in 32gb external SD.. and swapped it and become 32gb internal.. hassle free. no need to worry about huge Whatsapp data lol!!

Quattro Shows Only 1.48GB Internal Storage instead of 8GB

I have recently bought one galaxy grand quattro from local shop.
Firstly i doubt about some specification and look of the phone.
1. There is no "DUOS" Symbol at the top of the Phone.
2. I have check Device Internal Storage , It shows 1.48GB.
3. I have checked Hardware Specification By Play Store Application named CPU/RAM/DEVICE IDENTIFIER.
Application says My device is Samsung Galaxy Grand Quattro I8552.
CPU TYPE : QualComm Snapdragon S4 Play MSM8225Q * 4 1.2096Ghz
RAM : 1GB DDR (Usable 845 MB)
GPU TYPE : ADRENO 203
I have also Checked IMEI on website it shows its Original Samsung win i8552
Also Device can be register with Samsung and i have updated firmware via Wifi.
FIRMWARE : I8552ZTAMG3
Version : 4.1.2
Please help me why my device shows only 1.48 GB instead of 8 GB.
Is there any Device or any Unbranded Version available with these feature ?

May be it is showing used internal memory. And the usable internal memory we used to get 5gb in quattro. Can u please provide a snap in which its stating about 1.48gb of internal memory? If it is really what u r syaing then please go to service centre. And from which region did u buy that phone? The firmware version does not look updated one.

Thanks for reply.
I cannot go to service center because phone is not indian version.
I have searched a lot and finally i found on google that Samsung Has 4GB ROM Version of this phone launched in China.
So finally 1.48GB user available.
Also My Phone baseband itself says its From Taiwan.
I have matched the phone specification on Samsung China official website and they matched with my phone.
I will post the photos soon.
still if you have idea how to expand internal storage please guide me.

Flash indian version of stock firmware to get latest indian version updates and u can move large game data to external memory by using gl2sd app which u will find on playstore. But u have to root ur quattro to use it.

There are several copies of Samsung devices found in the market...my uncle bought a copy of S4 for just 11k...it has all the features of s4 including air gestures...but Android Version is 4.2.9 which proves that the version is not genuine...do check it properly if you paid the same price for the device

This is quite and old thread, and probably you have already found a solution, but I'm in the same situation, and my solution might help you:
1) I installed External 2 Internal app from Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.codlab.int2ext which swaps internal and external memory, so /sdcard point to the external sd card, as in other phones.
2) I installed Link2SD https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD and created a second partition (in ext3 format) on the sdcard, and proceeded to link all apps to this second partition using Link2SD.
This way, I've been able to install several big games (such as Fifa 14 and Real Racing 3), along with around 100 apps, and still keep almost 1 Gb free space.
To use those apps, the phone must be rooted. You have to work a bit, but the results are very nice.

Not quite, since external to internal swaps internal and external memory, so you don't have to link folders game by game. And using Link2SD, as it has an option to automatically link folders, you don't have to worry again, either.

Yes but those r complex for maximum users. I can bet maximum dont know how to create partition.. while gl2sd is far easy and usually we need to move game datas only as there r plenty of space in internal sd card for installing applicatioms..

All those apps require a rooted device, which eliminates most of the average users. Once you know how to root your device and do it properly, using Internal2External or Link2SD is not so hard.

Kingo doesn't work on all versions and firmwares (the same happened to framaroot) and cwm is not for all users. Do you really picture unexperienced users using Odin and downloading firmwares from sammobile or other sites? Come on...

I had this one question
Just like ram is increased by .swap file
So, by another way can I increase internal memory

No. Unfortunately the memory swap doesn't work for KK (yet).
Though there are some scripts (mostly for locked phones) that allow you to create partitions on sdcard esp for multiboot. But that would require a pretty fast card for one and modifications as per the script and phone.

File was not found in system/etc I guess its in system/bin
But in device/
It has "init" I guess not sure
It probably supports scripts to increase memory
I'm in CM12. Any app for swap?

Can't move apps and appdata to external memory card

Please help me..... The biggest drawback I've found in my Micromax canvas express 2 is that there's no option to move apps to sd card. I have android lollipop. Is there any way to overcome this problem.... Please tell me soon.

use XinterSD,FolderMount, Obb on Sd
Its almost close..
But if u wanna really move app directly to Sd,
then u have to use App2Sd,app manager
or make some kernel modification
How make kernel modifications
