Hi all,
Actually this is a 2 part question.
I just updated my i9505 to CM12 lollipop.
1. This is a minor problem out of the 2. The internal storage bar shows a wrong proportion. As you can see, I have 1.81GB available but it's taking up half the meter bar for some reason.
2. From the photos you can see I have 13.31GB available on my external SD card, yet when I tried to move some apps from internal storage to SD, lollipop is giving me an error saying "Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space." Which is obviously not true. I also tried using Link2SD but it gave me an message saying "INSTALL_FAILED_CONTAINER_ERROR".
If anyone could give me some advice on how to fix the mentioned problems I will be very grateful.
Thank you in advance,
Nelson

Guys I still can't move app to SD. It says "not enougth free space" or something similar.
Searching on the web I found other people with the same problem but no valid solution. My SD is 32gb and fat32. Tks

as i have not tested CM12 yet but Cr-Droid based on CM12, i dont have storage problems actually. but i'm on 4.4.4 now actually.
ok thanks. I assume it's a problem with CM. I guess all we can do is wait for updates!
May not be a CM problem...

Hello All,
I am a long time user of custom ROMs for my devices, as I'm sure most here are. I have had my Shield tablet (wifi only 16gb version) since January, and in that time I have tried many ROMs. The only one that has allowed app to be installed onto the SD was the rooted stock Lollipop. I have tried, PAC (KK and LP beta), CM12, and ASOP 5.0. All fresh installs of these ROMs have lead to the infamous 'Couldn't Move app. Not enough Storage Space.'.... Therefore, I am waiting patiently for a solid ROM that allows App2SD. Keep up the good work!

First of all, hello to everyone, I've been a big fan of this site since the very start I found it out and it sure helped me alot in my android experiences and adventures. So.. Thank You All, for these great efforts and information you'll are providing in order to help people and make phones more pleasant to use.
'This is the first time I'm posting on XDA bc I need help with something:
I have recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S 4 (i9505 model). I'm from Netherland btw and also bought my S4 here.
Before my S4 I was using a HTC DHD, which I screwed around alot with, like installing custom ROM's provided here and other stuff. I don't know if some options on Android phones are phone specific or not. But on my DHD i always could move apps from internal memory to my SD Card and otherwise, which i can't on my S4. This is like the last thing I need to do on my S4, bc I got a 16 GB model (9 or so useable) and I got only 3 GB left while I have a Ext. SD Card of 32 GB (30 useable) and only used 1,5 GB of it.
'This feels like having a beautifull hot girlfriend, but not being able to do anything nice with it, if you know what I mean..
I don't know where, but I once read it's possible to merge internal and external to 1 storage, like combining 2 partitions to 1 or making a RAID partition out of 2 different storages on phones. Is there anyone who can help me exactly with what I need please?
Thanks in advance.

The new software update thats allready rolling out will allow apps 2 sd card feature, it has arrived to some countries already maybe you should check your OTA or kies update. Or else you can flash it yourself manually .

Anyway what i do is go to settings, app manager, swipe to the right to find 'all' where all your apps is located, then click on an app and find "move to SD card"

Update to XXUBMEA. It provides App2sd support but I think you can only move the app, not its data.
=/
The remaining space is low, because the apps are installed in the phone memory ,and I can not move the programs to the SDcard.eek:nly Sixty-five apps had been installed ,not included big games.Then the remaining space are 650M，Often show lack of space.:crying:

Thanks for this Information, but i think that's not the real problem. He asked why App2SD doesn't work. There are only a lot of apps filling the internal Memory, no big data that should or could moved to a sd card.
That's the same Problem on my phone (Galaxy Note N7000). I see the Option "Move to SD" in the application menu, but if i want to move the app, i got an error message that's not possible to move the app.

To avoid any myths starting, this has nothing whatsoever to do with 4.4.2 - the commit just happened to be made the same night as 4.4.2 was merged in. Pure coincidence, nothing more.
Hi Friends,
I was extremely annoyed with Lollipop Upgrade as I didnt had enough storage space after the upgrade.. Removing system apps also didn't help. I was looking for some KitKat Roms and I found this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/development/26-nov-svhd-v1-0-0-t2953661
This is one of the best KitKat Roms available and works amazing on my Device. (Dual Sim Version)
FYI: This is NOT MY CREATION and I would like to give 100% Credit to the Author.
Hope this Helps

A month ago came from nexus 5 world and I'm big time missing MultiROM. Thank you for the app
However, while installing secondary patched ROM in TWRP, I've got Error 1 - while installing both Lineage OS and AOSP Extended.
I wonder where I can error messages codes to figure our what's wrong with my setup.
Upd. 1 - just checked free space and /system got 0B.
- Does that explains error 1 message (see above)
- how I can free space on /system partition
- How I can get more space on /system partition - to be able to use this app? In other words, do I need to play around with PIT file? Or how else (and more safely) I can extend /system at the cost of interbal storage?

I'm not completely sure how to resize system partition but have you got a very large sized ROM installed? I was running superman ROM and still had more than enough space to install it. You could try to download an app like system app uninstalled and either delete apps like Facebook and install them again from the playstore if they are installed as system apps or delete very rarely used apps like SHealth (just an example, I don't use my S Health but you might)

I doubt it, without a fully working recovery it isn't possible. I could be wrong, there might be a way, but I wouldn't count on it.

While been a flash-o-holic, I tried that. But while there are no official ROMs for for 930W8, thus there is no proper CSC. That screwing up my modem big times. I'm not sure what's wrong, but after ANY N ROM I do not have network connection.

Hello All
A friend is visiting me and he wants to use the SD as internal storage on his SM J500F phone.
I only found one article on XDA. Can someone confirm if this is a working solution?
Thanks
tell him not to do it, it will slow his phone down and decrease perfomance

Yes, a lot of apps will be crashing, because most of apps nowdays are not meant to be stored on sd card, and phone storage will never be same as sd card storage, that is why the perfomance will go down.
Well in my opinion is one of the best options to be made to a j5 as it does not have enough storage to support the apps of today so my recommendation would be to put internal sd and leave you the necessary zip to do it
I think better option is to move to to SD card, by doing this i have 2.5 gb available, even though i have so many apps, but still, he can give adoptable storage a try and decide for himself

There is a method for Root users via Root Essentials or work around stock settings. I was able to get Adopted internal storage on stock 6.0.1, No luck on CM13 as the kernel doesent allow it.
@kiwigi I think that better is a debloated Rom and native app2sd. You should test and pick what you find better for you. I personally avoid as much as I can craps like Facebook, Snapchat, etc. which are always the great responsible of out of memory and so.

Thanks. Have you got a suggestion for a debloated tomorrow? Or is there an option of rooting then debloated ourselves?
Or root and move apps to SD?

Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk
Actually, googling things like debloated AOSP, debloated Lineage bring us very interesting things. We know that all stock roms need root and our work to recover valuable space. I like the CM/AOSP branded roms. There are lot of threads here in XDA about customize and debloat and apps to do such and that works with SD managing as well ?
Hopefully now there are plenty J5 roms for you to taste and choose.?
I want to use sd card as internal storage, and use it to download large files from playstore, but could not find solution please help.
