Hi guys.
I have a LG Optimus L3, original ROM, but rooted. I used Link2SD to move the applications from the 160MB system memory to the 1 GB emulated SD Card. Most of my applications are now in the "SD", but their data and cache still being saved on the 160 MB system memory, and this is making full storage warnings.
I ever installed CM9, but due to graphics problem I had to go back to the original ROM.
There are some way to move all the application, including its data and cache, to the SD card (or emulated SD)?
Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone! I installed the Srom 2.2.1 V3 earlier. Everything is working very good and stable. But i noticed a problem. When i was on 2.1, i installed link2sd to have my apps on the sd. So i partitioned my sd card. When i installed the new rom today, i didn't do anything to the sd card, and when i started to install applications i saw that they were going to the ext2 partition, despite the fact that they were marked as installed on phone memory. Then i tried the option "move to sd" (through application manager) and the apps moved to another location of the sd card. So what can i do to use my phone memory? (which has 180MB free space!)
Thank you very much in advance!
delete and format the ext partition in SDcard
If i backup the apps that are installed there using titanium, and then after formatting the sd i restore them, will they be installed on the internal memory, or will there be any problems?
1st you need to use minitool partition checking is it your SDcard creat a ext2 partition. if you just format the sdcard it doesn't mean delete your ext2 partition. so that after you update to 2.2 ROM, is still will recognized ext2 partition as your system storage
P/S sorry my bad English.
I've just deleted the partition and formatted the whole sd card. Then i wiped cache and did a factory reset because i had some install issues. So ext2+android 2.2 don't get along well!!! Thank you for your interest and replies
hey everyone
I have a little problem here. I am using a nand rom named hyperdroid gbx v3 and initially I had 270 MB of internal storage during the first startup .
I have moved majority of my apps to sd excluding a few apps that require phone memory.
Now my internal storage is full even after deleting the unnecessary stuff.
»»» I dont want to loose all my apps and settings .
Please can anyone help me with this ?
Is there any solution to increase internal memory in a NAND rom ??
Thank s in advance !

That rom has a2sd+ meaning if you set up an ext partition on your SD card, the rom will automatically put apps there, and treat it as internal storage (though the system will not show it on the available storage screen)
When you have manually chosen to move an app to SD, you are actually moving it to the fat32 partition.
So, set up the ext partition (can do it through cwm, backup your fat32 first, the SD will be wiped) then copy back all the fat32 stuff to the fresh sd, boot, and move all your manually moved apps back to the internal memory and they should be moved to the ext.
(Though if it were me I'd set up the ext, and reflash the rom,, start over.
Also, when you instal an app, 10 Meg, say, your reported internal memory will drop 10mb, but will go back up when you next reboot.
As for keeping your data and such, if you do a backup in cwm first(which is saved to SD, make sure you copy it to PC before you start formatting the SD card) then after you flash the rom again you can use cwm selective restore to restore just the data partition.(but see if it works without a fresh flash first )
That helped me..
I want to use app data from sd card (since internal memory is just 4.2 gb including application storage and data as well) what should i do, Am i suppose to do swapping ?? or some thing else?? kindly help..
I'm not sure what you mean, but if you're running low on internal storage, here's what I did for a fix:
First, apply one of the myriad of options for allowing any app to read/write the external SD.
Get the xinternalsd xposed module.
Tell it to make everything point to the external uSD card.
Then move everything from the internal emulated SD card to the external.
That will probably clear up a ton of space.
If you're still running low, clean up the app caches. If you really have 4GB of apps and data on internal storage, 1GB is probably caches.

Are you rooted? do you have a large SD Card which you do not swap out?
On my previous phone it only had 420MB of user space for apps. I created a 2GB EXT4 partition (could of been 32GB on my 64GB card if I wanted), then used Int2EXT system to move all the apps to the partition on the SD.

Apps2SD (on the Market) performs the same thing, with a front end
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.
Hi,
I am not able to move apps to Internal Storage card from /system. Alwasy it says can't move apps not enough storage space but I am having 900 MB left.
Having /system memory of about 65 MB
Having internal memory of about 900 MB.
Even when I have 900 MB of internal storage I can't move apps to Internal storage.
Why so? Can't I move apps to internal storage and can only be movable to External storage?
Tried Link2sd, Mount2sd and also some other apps but all waste. Also tried wipe cache but nothing happened.
I am on Stock ROM YNG1TAS1K0, Thunderzap Kernel 4.1r2 and CWM recovery.
Anyone please help.
