Hi guys,
I'm upgrading to a higher capacity SD card on my rooted Note 3 on Lollipop and I was wondering if there's a best practice for this. I have too many apps installed on the SD card in there currently to move them all over to internal storage and then move them back to the new card. I absolutely could uninstall them and reinstall them but I thought there may be a better way?
Thanks in advance!

Hello there guys,
i tried to install some apps but i could not, the phone show insufficient memory.
So i opened aplications-manage applications and unsuccessfully tried to move the apps to SD CARD (which i believe is the internal storage of phone, i don't have SD Card). I was surprised with this because there is plenty of space available. any idea what can i do? i cant install apps and neither transfer them to SD.
THanks.
Hey, hmm yeah i can see how that would be an issue. lol
But the SD card referees to an external memory card not your internal memory.
You can install a micro sd card (up to 32GB) into your samsung galaxy s2 through the back. You'll have to open up the back cover
Planning to buy a new Micro SD card (32gb or 64gb class 10) and I'm planning to make a patition to save internal storage
I have done some research regarding parititioning here and on other sites but I still got some un-answered questions:
1.) After partitioning a new SDcard, I'm planning to just copy all the files/apps from my first (unpartitioned) 4gbCard into the new Card. Is it okay? Will the phone recognize the apps/files/data apps I have pasted on the new (paritioned) SD card?
2.) Since I already moved some of my apps to my SD card, can I can also move the app data that was left from internal storage to the new partitioned SD? (to really free up internal storage)
3) Will partitioning be really important on my Device? (Sensation XE, Viper 1.5.2, Fax Kernel)
4) what class of SD card is recommended for partitioning?
5) how much space for the sd-ext?
thanks in advance guys! Merry Christmas!! :laugh:
Hello - I'm running out of internal space and trying to move apps to my SD card, but I keep getting the "Couldn't move app" error. I haven't had any issues with past versions of CM when moving apps, so I'm not sure if it's KK-related (I know there were security changes with KK) or if it's my SD card. My card is a 16 GB SanDisk, class 4, and is only a few months old. If I do a move in TiBu, it initially shows the app as moved but it shows as internal storage again on reboot. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated - thanks for the help!
yo apparently kitkat doesn't really like lower than class 6 SD cards as far as moving things to the sd card. i had this same issue on kk. you're going to have to just get a new card or deal with not moving anything to the sd. sorry bro but google's oppressing us. SINGLE CORE PHONES ARE DED1111
That's what I figured - just another case of the man holding us down. Thanks for the reply!
Hi, I'm also having trouble moving apps to the SD card with CM11. Problem is, I have a class 10 32gb microSD card, so the change card solution isn't applicable. I have plenty of space on the card. Any ideas?
Hello
I own Samsung Galaxy S4 I9500 and it is rooted. I recently purchased a class 10 Sandisk Micro SD card with 64 GB capacity. I was very happy that I did but my happiness did not last long when I have come to know that 3rd party apps do not have write permission in Kitkat. After some research I was successful to make the SD card writable to 3rd party apps by modifying the permissions.xml file.
Everything seems to be fine at this time but it was not actually. The SD card when seen under storage in settings would show me that it is mounted with 62.5 GB capacity and 60 GB free. But when I try to browse the files in SD card, there are nothing. Apps saved in SD card do not open and I am also unable to capture images from camera to SD card storage.
I thought may be unmounting the SD card and mounting it back would work and it worked but after a while the same problem. My device shows that it has mounted an SD card but cannot access anything saved in it. So, I have to unmount and mount SD card every time and this is very much annoying.
Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks you for your time.
Hi all
Please can anyone help me understand if it is possible to use an external SD card as the internal card. I bought 2 of these tablets for my twin boys 7 years old and somehow it runs out of space. I put in an external SD 32gb but not all apps can move to it and updates from play store not downloading due to no space. I have rooted the tablets and unlocked the bootloader, installed Xposed framework with obb to sd and xinternal but it doesn't do the trick. Is there anyway to trick the ROM into seeing the external SD as the internal?
