Well first are you rooted or no?

I am not rooted. Trying not to yet. Just got it and pretty happy with everything except for the SD card. I read that lg followed Samsung's lead and did not make it possible for the phone to tell a difference with internal and external storage due to cards being accidentally erased when removed.

My sister LG 5 is not rooted. I checked to see if I could move some of them. I was able to move some to sd. It was far in between. Like 1 out of every 5 or so I could.
Are you able to move any at all? I am not going to lie, don't know to much about this. But that's because I always rooted right off the bat. Maybe someone can shed light on this?

None move but clean master calculates the storage including the SD card. So when the internal storage fills up will it just put them on the SD card?
anybody know if the phone just starts filling up the SD card after the internal storage is full because the LG doesn't consider the SD card a separate storage for some reason i read???

Is there anyone who knows how to move apps to SD card for this phone?
Tested on non-rooted LG G5 H850 with stock Android Oreo 8.0. What info have I gathered:
To move app from internal storage to external SD card storage go through this steps: Settings -> Apps and notifications -> App info -> select app -> Storage -> Storage used change -> select SD card.
But not all the apps have a feature to move itself to SD card. You can easily check availability of such feature using "Apk Analyzer app by Martin Styk" - just look at "Install location" field (tap on field for explanation).
Here you are two pairs of screenshots, where shown:
1. how does look app info, if the app have "move to SD card" feature

Have rooted the phone s3...but am unable to move apps to sd .
There's a method but seems too complicated...
Any other ideas anyone or is it for the best to leave apps on the phone in the case of pics
You have an app called app 2 sd on play store. I think it will work.
btw: are you from Dubai??
Nope does not work....as far as in have read its something thats not possible on the s3 so far...due to ics.
Neways they say its better this way....
Yes akhiiiiii....i am from Dubai......
app 2 sd may not be needed in s3 . as the sgs3 use the whole internal sd for data + user files there is no need to move it to sd

I've been using my SGS3 for 3 days now. 16GB internal +32GB external SD
So far:
- device memory total space 11.35GB & available 1.65GB (downloaded my Google Play Music collection, went straight to internal memory, no choice)
- SD card total space 29.71GB & available 29.71GB
What I hope is happening:
is what I've been reading about but no proof... the data is being distributed somehow between both cards and it just doesn't show, OR, the internal storage has 11GB dedicated to apps & music and what-not, and once that is used up, any additions will be moved to the external SD
What I think will happen:
"You have run out of memory, please remove some files or apps to proceed", in a typical Microsoft moment...
I was prompted only once to install stuff on the external SD; those were additional files (250MB) that needed to be downloaded for a game I had just installed. Of course I chose external SD but it doesn't look like it worked...

Was shocked when I got my S3 and saw it didn't supports app2sd. My friend has almost filled up his 16GB internal with apps. His 64GB SD card can't even used for apps at this point.
I am keen to see what happens with this SD card business. Why have the SD card if your apps cannot utlise it. e.g using rdio and 16gb for offline storage and games and movies etc is simply not sufficient.
Any solutions as of now?
Is there any market app that ha been proven to work or any ROMs that have this enabled?
This is very inconvenient........
help
has there been any movement on this issue as my internal is full, i have a 16gb sd but from what i have read us with the s3 can not move apps to the sd card, please help,, thank you

great information, do you not think i have tried?
Just got my Tmo Note home, I think I got the last one as there were only 2 Denver retail stores that had them . Is there going to be a new forum here at xda for this phone?
I'm having an issue with the external sdcard, I am using ES File Explorer. I put the external sdcard from my old sensation into the new note, I browse to /sdcard/external_sd/ and I get an empty folder. Something reported to me that the ext sdcard was not mounted but I forget what I was doing when I saw that. What do I need to do to access the external sdcard taken from my Sensation?
I imagine this is an easy situation, I just haven't experienced a setup where there is an internal and external sdcard on a phone.
Thanks

That's interesting because I have a i717 and I flashed a nandroid backup courtesy of Rotohammer if I am not mistaken, when the device booted and I went to look for sd card it didn't show anything. But a reboot solved it for me. Worst case is you backup anything you need from the sd to a PC and fully format card.

I rebooted and still got an empty /external_sd folder. Once I backup the sd to pc, how do I mount/format the ext. sdcard?
Also, when I plugged the phone into pc with usb it shows phone as 9.85GB - I thought this came with 16GB of internal memory?
Under /mnt i have asec, obb, sdcard, secure and usb - no /mnt/ext_sdcard
Make sure the card if formated as FAT32 - if plugged into a computer, right click and select properties). I recently purchased a 64gb card and when I turned on the Note, I got the error the SD card was not mounted. I couldn't mount it or format it. Did some searching and others had that problem. The solution was to delete all partitions (searched cnet downloads for a partition manager) on the microSD card then insert into the Note & turn it on. The Note reported there was a damaged SD card - then I was given a prompt to format the microSD card.
So make sure your data is backed up 1st.
Not sure why your internal space shows that. That number seems low. May have to format internal storage and factory reset as it comes fresh out of the box.

As for the storage on the phone, mine has 1.97 internal[apps, etc], 10.85 usb storage[the other part of internal formatting], and of course my 29.81 under sdcard[actually the external card]

I just got the T-Mobil Galaxy Note as well. I had not problem moving my SD card from My Touch 4g. At first I didn't understand the file structure, but now I see that the external cards shows under the directory of the SD card which really is internal memory. That memory shows only a total of 9.85 GB (should be 16 according to specs) and the other internal is 1.97 GB. I would also be curious if anyone know why the internal memory numbers are so far off.
My best guess is this.
11gb is parted off for user.
2gb is parted off for apps.
that's 13gb for user storage.
The rest is for /system, /cache, dalvic and future ROM updates. Naturally a new os will take more space so they make a best guess for future upgrades, features, etc.
You never really get what the advertised storage is. Plus its better to have more space remaining for the rom than what it actually needs to help future proof a bit and so you don't run into storage restrictions when upgrading or flashing custom stuff.
Take the xoom for example, it leaves 28gb for user, and only about 1gb to 1.3gb for the rest of the system. Because of that we have to use symbolic links to have some of the gapps load up when flashing as to avoid errors and such.
Sometimes having some missing storage is a good thing as its almost certainly belonging to the back end.

i have it for the Ace with darktremor script but nothing for my player...
thanks!
you're trying to swap internal and external memory?

hum not really... will try to explain better.
I have 3 memory on my player 4.2:
- Internal with 2Go
- External with 4,6 Go
- Micro SD card 16 Go.
When i'm on setting > storage , i can see internal memory and external. so i've only 6.6Go.
My micro SD is not reconized as internal or external.
So i want to know if i can get it reconize as internal or external,because for installing big games ( most wanted etc...) i need a lot of space,and don't have enought space in the player...only in the card
hope you will understand me,i'm french and do my best for you ^^

I know that internal/external swaps exist, either via hack or via app (google search). I'm not sure though how well it'll work for your device since I'm not too familiar with the 4.2. One program I know that lets you put apps on the actual SD card for use is Gemini App Manager. This is assuming your SD card is mounted.
Your SD card wouldn't be recognized as external or internal, but only as SD card (or something like that)
on my ace,when i put a sd card, it's recognize as external memory but not on my player because when you have those player,it have external memory without sd...
so i will try to find something if i can...
i want to do that: Expand memory but for my player ^^
No one have a solution?
I'm also looking for a similar solution. I've SMP 5.0 and i want to install games, problem is that they are using internal memory which is quite low. How do I install it on sd-card and not use internal memory???
i've maybe find something.
i test it and will report asap if it works for me

well, good luck! i'm also searching for the same....

I have dropbox and love it (50GB free) :woohoo:
On JB roms I can't export to external SD card (I can export to internal but I prefer to use external for DB)
on GB rom the path for external SD card is accessed within internal SD card i.e. sdcard/extsdcard/ (or something similar)
So, is there anyway to get Dropbox to see external SD card on JB?? (NB, it does see folders if you create new folder from within the app, but it doesn't see any other folders [apart from clockworkmod for some reason])
-=or=- is there a way to change the JB path for ext sdcard to be accessed from within the internal storage??
PS - I do just manually move things from internal to external... but I'm not getting any younger doing it
:bump:

I have the same problem with Galaxy Note N7000. Any idea how to fix it, maybe link external_sd to /extSdCard?
Btw you can use Astro File Manager. It can access both sd card and dropbox as folders and simple copy/paste will work. Just tested

I dunno... Could it be related to a specific ROM? I have no problem at all accessing both int and ext SD cards from Dropbox "export" function (they are listed as internal storage and SD card respectively), and can see all folders on either storage. Running Disaster v.10 (stock-based LSD).
Look at dropsync ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/...e=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_term=dropsync) I think it does what your after.

Did you install dropbox before you put your card in the phone? If you did, dropbox might have configured itself based on the available storage options at the time......try clearing dropbox's data, or deleting and re installing the app to see if that helps......

Fixed the issue in my device. Multiple directories for my external SD card. Dropbox was choosing one called extsdcard but it wasn't really the external so I renamed that folder. It then chose the real external SD card. Now I am able to export to it correctly.

I think you can't do it properly.
You can follow the steps to move the apps to SD card:
Go to Settings > More and select Application Manager.
Select an app that you want to move to your SD card.
Now choose Move to SD card, and that’s it!app2sd
Once your app has been completely moved to SD, you will see the space that has been moved to SD card under SD card data.
In case you need to move your app back to your internal storage: simply select Move to device storage.app2sd for galaxy s4

I installed via Odin the official firmware I9205XXUCNA2 downloaded from sammobile and I can
guarantee that after the instalation you will have the option to move the applications to the sd card
(that part of the application that can be moved).
You have to know that there are application that cannot be moved to the sd.
