Hello together.
I have a big problem with my GTB 3G.
Closly every time, when i restart the tab, the system dont recognize the extern sd card with its included apps (which i outsourced with a2sd).
I ve already tried to remove this problem.
1. First i formated the extern sd card in quick and slowly mode. - then i copied the files again on the extern sd card. But the problem ist still there.
2. Now i have rooted my original froyo (t-mobile) custom rom, to have more options to solve this problem.
Questions:
Is it right, that all moved apps (with app2sd) are gone on the extern card?
How can i change over from extern-sd to the intern-sd?
- i may dont understand the memory system of this tab
When i start titanium backup, it shows me the situation of my memory
System - Rom: 334 mb (5.31 mb free)
Intern: 1.77 GB (436 mb free)
DB-Files: 85.2 mb (62.6 mb free)
sd-card: 13.7 gb (8.59 gb free)
extern sd-card: 8.16 gb (5.67 gb free)
After this explaination, where are the apps gone, if i chance the memory place of one app from app2sd into phone-memory ?
Are the apps gone from externsd-card to sd-card ? Or are they going from extern-sd-card to the so called "Intern" ?
And how can i change it, that apps, which i will move with a2sd, arent stored in the extern-sd-card-folger "android_secure". Have i create a ext3 or ext4 on the "sd-card" in order to save the apps on the intern card, and not anymore on the extern-sd card?

Application 2 SD !!! How to stop shrinking of internal phone memory
On hd2 i installed nand "MDJ Froyo sense =Revotulion= " , i also have two partition on 8gb sd card. Fat 32 = 6gb and EXT3= 2gb ... when installed new rom i have 161 mb of onternal phone storage.

Because there are some apps that you cant simply move to the ext partition and have to be installed on internal memory i.e. gmail, youtube and updates!
yes I know that! thank you ...but I hade all that apps when installed new rom...3days internal phone memoty was 161mb and after that installed only games (apps 2 sd always aksked me to move to sd and succesfully moved them)..on phone list apps is onlu market and 3gwatchdog...on SD apps list is everything i downloaded but still dont have 161mb ...now there is 142mb and still shrinking!!! How about now???
app2sd or similar isn't moving all app-data to sd I think

Yes,but moveSD enabler does. App2SD only ask for some app's
the "problem" is, move2sd creates a sort of "link" to the data on the SD card. Thus, when you install lets say an app of 15MB, 14MB goes to the SD card, but 1MB of data (files that can't be run of the SD card + link to SD card) stays on your internal phone memory.
So when you install lets say 100 apps, that all have 1MB of essential data and 14 MB of move-to-sd-able data your internal storage shrinks by 100MB and your SD cards' storage shrinks by 1400MB.
Its shrinking because app data is still stored on internal memory.
Please post in correct section. This has nothing to do with development.

Hey,
Yh, I know: another app2sd+ question...
Tried using the search button, but did not find what I was searching for
I'm using the TyphooN CyanogenMod7 RC2 v2.5.5 ROM on my HD2 and was running low on internal memomy and used to send apps to my sd card, but some wouldn't not work and my internal memomery was low on memory.
So I decided to partition my 8GB scandisk sd card:
6.7 gb FAT32 en 800mb ext2
After I did that, I used a clean instal of TyphooN CyanogenMod ROM and everyhting works .
When I go to applications and then applications managing, I see that my internal memory is just 244 mb and my external memory 6.5 gb.
But what I don't understand :
Who do I move downloaded applications from my phone to the ext2 partition on my sd card instead on the fat32 partition ?
Does this (moving to ext2 partition) happen automatically when I download apps and move them to the SD card ?
The ext partition is considered internal, so if you manually move an app to the SD card, it will go from the ext partition to the fat partition and many wont work. When you have an ext partition you don't need to do anything. The rom will use the ext itself.
When you look at internal memory size it wont show the ext space, only the actual internal space. Say you instal a ten Meg app, that figure goes down ten even though its installed to ext, but it will go back up ten next reboot.
Thank you very much !
That was very clear, didn't find this somewhere else
In Backup Tittanium appears 3 parts of memory, internal sd card, Sd card, and SD Card (a2sd) where it appears 216 MB but only 40.7 MB is free, but I have not changed any app to the sd card??
have you switch ROM lately?
Yes, I changed to the nexus
What is the preferred partitioning configuration of the SD card for the Matrix 4g?
In a previous phone, I had a 16GB card from which I allocated 1.5GB as an extended partition. I was using Link2SD. I am getting a new card (32GB Class 10) to use in this phone and want to make the best use of this massive storage device.
Is an extended partition even necessary under 2.2+? If so, should it be FAT32 or a Linux-type (Ext2,Ext3,Ext4)?
1) no custom kernel = no app2ext (old style apps to sd)
2) Froyo has its own app2sd which allows some apps to store most of their data on sd card.
3) you have a lot of space for apps on internal storage.
Hi. I have downoaded an official lollipop update today 5.0.1. I thought that lollipop would automatically grant all my apps a full access to SD card.
Apps with the biggest amount of data in my device are (I have only 16 GB version of S4 so internal memory is very precious in this model):
1. colordictionary (takes 1,5 GB of internal memory - indexed dictionaries folder)
2. App backup and restore (takes 1,5 GB of internal memory - data backup folder)
3. google translator (takes 1 GB of internal memory - offline dictionaries)
Through application manager I have moved all those apps to SD card. The problem is that the main data folders of those apps are still in the internal memory.
I tried to move those data folders to SD card through My files but the apps were not able to access their folder on SD card.
my question:
How could I grant those apps to have a full acceess to my SD card? (without root of course)

I don't think you can without root. Google made lollipop so that you can't move apps to sd card as far as I know. Apps need the data to be on the internal memory. Otherwise they won't work. If you move the data., the app will try to download the data again, to the internal memory.
The only way is, if you're rooted, with apps like Folder Mount.
