Just got the official OTA Marshmallow update yesterday. All seems okay, except that I cannot adopt the SD card as internal storage. When I look at storage management, there are two options for the SD card... Eject and Format, but both are greyed out and unusable.
Has Huawei implemented this part of Marshmallow? Annoying if not!

On my Lenovo A7000, a recent firmware update says that I can update to Marshmallow 6.0
I want to update but there was a message in red that I'm wary about.
If you previously switched the default storage device, after upgrading to Marshmallow the data and applications stored on your SD card may be lost. Please backup any important data.
What course of action should I take?
My default write is my SD card
I previously moved all my photos and videos to my SD card.
Should I backup both my internal storage and SD card or just my SD card?
Are there any other steps I'm missing?
So i had serious memory issues, like out of my 8gb 5.2gb was used for system data and 1gb for the default apps so i barely had room for ads , so i bought an 16gb sd card but i couldn't move all of the apps i barely could do anything on them(i dont really take photos/videos so they didn't take more than 10mb maybe). I didn't even have space to get the marshmallow update but i did some reading an apparently in the update i could adopt my sd card as internal storage and the only con was like slower speed but i don't really care for that myself. so i did a factory reset i updated to marshmallow erased my sd card memory before factory-resetting and when i finally opened the phone with 6.0 installed and went to my storage options and in sd settings all there is is eject and format, not format as internal storage, help??? also excuse me for horrible grammar/punctuation.
Right now after resetting i already have 6.2gb used out of 8gb and i didn't install one single app its all just after resetting.

Not all Marshmallow firmwares / phones offer this capability. You should be able to force it from following this:

Hi, I formatted my SanDisk 16gb card as Internal Storage for my Android Marshmallow 6.0 Moto G 2nd Gen XT1068 *rooted* device. So far so good, the problem is that my phone was failing really bad yesterday not sure why, it won't move files from internal to the sd card so it was running out of space and the whole system started failing. I was not able to backup my SD card neither, because my developer options were blocked so no USB debugging available., I tried everything I found online, from stoping removing cache from Media internal app and some others, etc, and nothing worked.
So I decided to restore my phone to stock.
I did this and now it works fine, however it does not recognize my SD card (because it was formatted as internal storage with the "previous" device) so now I have a 16gb SD Card (4GB occupied) inaccessible to make a backup.
Is there a way to gain access to this SD card so I can move out all the files I've in there so I can format it again as internal storage?
Any information missing please ask,
Thanks in advance,
Denis.
Hi guys,
I am on the Moto G3 (osprey) and am running LineageOS 14.1-20170125 nightly. I have a 32gb microSD card formatted as internal storage as well as the internal storage of 16gb.
I have used 7gb out of 14.68gb available on the internal storage and only 2.66gb of the 28.80gb available on the microSD card. However, I am unable to move apps from my microSD card to my internal storage, despite there being plenty of available storage. Whenever I click 'change storage' and select 'internal shared storage', it starts to move and then gives a error saying 'not enough storage space'.
I'm tested this on marshmallow ROMs and it works fine there, but it hasn't worked when I've been on Nougat. I've also tried multiple Nougat ROMs already so I don't think it is a nightly bug.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to move the apps? The only workaround right now is to format the microSD card as portable, install the apps that got uninstalled so that they are on the internal storage, and then format the sd card as internal again. However, i would greatly appreciate if there was another method that doesn't involve this since it takes a while to do.
Cheers!!
