How to select External SD Card as the default place for data storage ?
I have a Samsung W I8150 which has a 2 GB built in memory. SO i have installed a 32 GB microSC card as external.
Now, when i download and install an app, all the data of the app is stored in the internal memory and it gets filled up.
How can I change the default location to the external SD Card in Stock 2.3.6 ?
I want to swap from External storage (sd card) to built-in storage which I can have everything automatic save in my sd card. I tried editing vold.fstab but it didn't work, please help
I installed a custom rom on my phone and now my sdcard mapping is backwards with the internal memory mapped as sdcard0 and the externall sd card mapped as sdcard1. Now I need to change these back to the way they should be as all apps are being installed to the internal storage and not the external sd card. I was told that changing a couple of lines in the vold.fstab file does this but it still isn't working correctly as I am only getting the option to move apps to internal memory or phone memory, not sd card. I have the default install location set to sd card but it is actually the internal memory that is being used.
Sorry if this sounds confusing
Internal SD card not detected in rooted Micromax A116 flashed with stock rom 4.2.1 from 4.1.2. After swapping External SD as Internal SD by editing vold.fstab with ES file explorer. In settings>storage> it shows Phone storage/0.98Gb (RAM), External SD card 7.96Gb and the Internal SD card 1.77Gb. However Internal SD card is not selectable/detected . When I again switch back by re-eiditng back the same appears in reverse order i.e now External SD card is not selectable /detected. Help as most of the useful apps which cant be moved to Ext. SD are in the Internal SD but that hardly has any space.
For some time i have used an SD card on my P9000 as Internal storage.
The advantage of this should be the possibility to install apps on the SD card.
It has been a source of issues though:
*malfunction of apps,
*apps disappearing after restart of P9000,
just to name some.
Moving the apps to the internal memory seems to fix these issues.
So, i have decided to format the SD card as portable storage.
This can be done by Settings, Storage & USB, SD card, vertical ellipsis ⋮ menu (top-right)
Before formatting, I want to move all data from the SD card.
After moving apps, photos & other media there is still 3.73 GB used on the SD card.
What is the 3.73 GB on an empty SD card?
How about transferring data from internal to sd card on Elephone P7000?
