Can Apps Installed on Redme Note 2 Prime Phone Transferred to SD Card to Save Internal Phone Memory .
Also does the Phone Support UHS (Ultra High Speed) SD Cards.
Android doesn't allow bootable data (apps) in external storage until 6.0 Marshmallow. We will have to wait until Xiaomi decides to upgrade MIUI to M (which I heard may be in 2016 Q1, correct me if I'm worng). Just get the 32GB version and you'll be fine.
Install Xposed Framework and use Xposed module "Obb on SD"
With the obb data on sdcard, the 16GB storage should be enough for a large amount of apps simultaneously installed.
Use "Folder mount" application to save up more space if there are specific large folders in the internal memory made by apps.
No and yes to your first and second question respectively.
Although I wouldn't use an SD card for apps in the first place, mainly because they're much slower than internal storage, even UHS ones.
With xposed use xinternalsd.
Would work in CM?
Maybe you can try foldermount that had been mention by @hasaan6545. It works for me too..

So apparently since the android Jelly Bean update you can no longer move apps from the internal sd card to the external sd card. BULL**** (forgive my french) this is ridiculous why would they get rid of that feature? The 16gb s4 actually only has roughly 9ish gigs. That's not enough space if you download the big games nowadays. Has anybody found a workaround for this? Unfortunately you can't even use the app2sd app. I have a 32gb sd card waiting to be filled with apps so if anybody knows a workaround I would really appreciate the help! Also I would prefer not to have to root my phone.

Download gl to SD from play store, you can move any data to external SD, just follow the directions.

Sadly I dont think rooting can even help... the sd slot just seems like they added it so people would buy the phone atleast thats why I got this in stead of the iphone..

Here's the app that you need. Move any data to external_sd.
DirectoryBind - move data to external_sd (GameLoft, Shadowgun etc.) ROOT req.

EDIT: OOPS!!! DirectoryBind doesn't work on 4.2.2
(I'm still using it on my S2 w/Gingerbread. Waiting on the 32gb or 64gb S4.)
Have to use this instead:
[APP][ROOT] FolderMount - Link folders from internal SD to external to free space

Thats because they're installed to it automatically. Before when you moved to sd the apps moved from inernal to internal sd card, which is where apps installed on the s4. Ext-sd is your memory card you insert on back of phone. Stock app manager has never been able to move apps to ext-sd only sd card. Titanium back up and other apps can though. So remeber if you inserted a sd card in back you have three storage places. Internal, internal sd, ext-sd. Apps install to the 16 gig automatically on the s4.

OK, I'm not a full-on geek (e.g. I do not want to root my device), still I'm pretty savvy, but I don't understand what you've said here.
I just updated from a Samsung Stratosphere (Android 2.3.6) to Stratosphere 2 (4.1.2), so I'm now acclimating to JellyBean.
I moved my SD card from the Strat to the Strat 2 and can see in the File Manager the sdcard0 and the exSdCard.
You are saying that in addition to my inserting an actual, physical SD card, there is both internal storage and additional built-in storage (sdcard0)?
Three separate storage areas?
The "main" internal is for the OS?
The built-in SD is for apps?
And my additional external SD is for data (e.g. video, music, etc.?)
I'm confused because, while the phone is still zipping along smoothly, Settings/Storage is telling me that, in 24 hours, I've already gobbled up 4.3 GB of my 8 GB device memory, > 3 GB of this being "miscellaneous" files.
Meanwhile, my application mgr tells me I have used 1.1 GB with 3.7 GB remaining.
Mind you, I am not a heavy app user (e.g. Evernote, my bank's app, NY Times, Dropbox, a few simple games), so what took a 3 GB chomp of my internal memory. For the life of me, I can't remember how I did it, but I did move all "consumer" data (e.g. documents, video, photos, etc.) to be stored on the extSD but, in 24 hours, I don't have that much to store.
Bottom line, are we non-rooters slaves to the internal (SD?) memory for our apps?
I just got a great deal on a sd card, and want to try to mover my downloaded apps to the SD, I am running cm11 rom and I'm rooted with twrp recovery. How can I store apps on the sd? I don't have the option in the app manager!
From what I understand, the latest builds of Android (and thus cm11) make internal storage preferred. The Google camera has no SD card option, which seems absurd to me.
I installed xposed framework and a certain module that grants saving of pics to external card. (I too have 64GB)
Also, store any bulk files (music, videos, photos, etc) on external card.
You can only move apps that support moving to sdcard. Things like alarm or widget apps shouldn't be moved tho, even if allows you to (from my understanding, unless things have changed).
I hope this helps a little bit at least.
I have added a 32gb SD Card but I can't even update applications as the rom is too low 8GB I believe. And it's occupied by os mostly. I moved all the apps to sd card but still the apps don't get moved completely from internal storage. And after update the apps get back to internal storage.
How do I get rid of this annoying problem!!?
Try factory resetting, maybe its a bug

So this doesn't happen to anyone else?
Also I noticed when I move app to sd card it doesn't completely move it. say a 222mb app after moving to sd card, it shows 167mb on device storage and 2xx on sd card!
I had that problem.. I partitioned my sd card, I downloaded link2sd plus and I was able to move the whole app to sd card, it's better to use the option link to sd card rather then the option move to sd card, your apps run properly when you link instead of move.. I also installed a custom rom , Igot memory for days

Yes, you cant completely move all app data on sd card. Try link2sd if it works
Storage problem solved for galaxy grand prime plus or other low storages devices
Hi,
This tutorial for those who want to increase storge.
After marshmallow update samsung stops adoptable storage.
But there is one way to enable adoptable storage again.
Guide:
Root your device.
Install Twrp recivery.
Download root essential from playstore
Open the app and select storage.
Now click on adoptable storage and the click on adopt.
Now download ASPlugin.zip from google.
Now flash the zip file from the Flasher given in root essential.
All Done.
Now you can use sd card as adoptable storage in settings.
Hello, how are you?
I have in my mobile j5 8gb of storage itnerno, which most is occupied by the s.o, I wanted to know if I can convert my SD external memory into internal,
I do not have the cell phone rooted but if necessary, I will rooteo without problem
Thank you
you can do adoptable storage by installing root essentials on playstore(needs root, assuming you already know how to root your phone) and make sure you backup the files from the sd since it will be formatted as internal. also the rw performance will vary from your sdcard type(recommended class 10 uhs-i or at least have 70mb/s read and 30mb/s write speeds)
or you can use xinternalsd and obb to sd(xposed modules, requires xposed framework) if you want full access to your sdcard without dealing with performance degradation and formatting stuff
Hi, I'm currently on the Stock Unrooted G5 Plus Android 7.0, the device is only a 16GB but only 10gb usable space.
I have a 64gb SD card mounted, I formatted it as internal and I thought that would allow all the apps that are/get installed to the SD card. but it doesn't work for every app and well I end running out of space.
Would a custom rom fully utilize the SD as internal space?
Not directly... But rooting may allow things like App2SD or Link2SD to work and move apps to the SD card (may require formatting/partitioning of the SD card).
Under developer options there is a setting to ignore the application manifest and allow moving apps to the SD card anyway (Settings > Developer Options > Force allow apps on external). That may allow you to move a few more apps, however system apps will still be stuck on the device's storage. I feel your pain - my G5+ is 16GB too...
I didn't know the G5+ came with 16GB too

Same here,
Whn i was born i saw G5 Plus in 4/32gb n bought it..
2/3 gb ram on oreo+ devices doesnt perform as it is meant to.
:fingers-crossed:
The devs hv made our device a "mini oneplus":good::highfive:
Don't make you SD function as internal. The commercial SDs are not meant to function as internal memories, thus get easily corrupted. I myself got 3 cards corrupted after turning them into internal SDs. Just stick to the external formatting option. In any case, the apps would operate more slowly as soon as you install them on the SD, even when formatted as internal.
