If you will use your sd-card as internal storage then you must edit your build.prop.
You need ROOT on your LG G3
- open build.prop
- scroll down to "ro.lge.adoptable_storage=false" and change FALSE in TRUE
- save build.prop
- reboot phone
- go to "Settings" --> "General" --> "Storage & USB" --> "Portable Storage"
- select sdcard "random numbers and letters"
- select the three dots --> "Setting"
- apply "Format as internal"
- thats all
Tested with stock marshmallow 30B on D855 32GB.

Anyone tried it? Any possible feedback about this mod? Is this require class 10 msd card?

Please be aware that, Formatting the SD Card as Internal, turns your removable/external SD Card option into a more or less permanent (and no longer removable) part of the device.
If you choose Internal, things change. I believe the Card is formatted as a local encrypted EXT4 drive and mounted as part of the system. It's then set as the preferred storage, and you're prompted to move data over. Newly generated data is placed on the adopted storage by default.
If you try to remove it, things will probably/defiitely go haywire.

True. I don't recommend it though. Think system gets slow when using sd card as internal. I foresee hundreds of topics here on xda with MM is crap, apps are missing, this rom is so slow/laggy just as in my HTC Desire days when everybody used sd card as internal because of the little system space the desire had (150mb or something like that you could expand it to 1 or 2 gb if i remember correctly).

Ahh.... The days of the HTC Desire Bravo, my phone of choice at the time, whatever happened to Ext4 recovery....
I totally agree, keep away from SD Internal and get the App Developers to use Adoptable Storage.....:good:
Worked perfectly!
I tried it with the 64gb microSD XC card i just bought and now i have ~74gb of internal memory, thanks!
By the way, searching for the build prop line there was another one that said "persist.splitwindowsupport_all=false"
do you think that changing that value to true would bring multi window support for all apps? Thats a feature i used in my s4 ( via Xposed i think) and would like to have it in my 5.5 screen =D
If it doesn't work no biggie xD
Once again thank you! ^^

It's work
I followed the same steps as listed using Build Prop Editor. Then converted sd card storage to internal. However, my internal storage still reads 25 gb! I had a 128 gb class 10 high speed lexar card. It was also not showing up on terminal emulator through the "free -m" command. How to check where memory has gone? Thanx
Changed the build prop to false and redid everything. Works fine. Thanx

Well I wanted to increase my ram via sdcard through ramexpander. This was my usual routine. But Marshmallow nixed that and ramexpander was not able to write to sd card. So I edited build prop as shown in one of the threads and formatted my card to internal. Though ramexpander does not work, I have used swapper and voila! it was successful. I was able to verify swap through terminal emulator. Also increased clock speed. Now working well. I have found this method to be flawless when flashed properly. Trick is to flash all the zips and only then reboot. I read that the other method has issues.

Restore your build.prop copy or twrp copy of the /system partition or flash the whole system
Now that the G3 has marshmallow officially, you do not need root. You can change adoptable storage setting to True using ADB.
I even split my sd card into part adoptable (internal) and part portable (external).

Do you need root to do this?
All I've seen so far is that root is temporary on Marshmallow. So I would assume this change would revert back after I reboot my phone?
If you don't need root... could you post the steps and adb commands to enable it?
Thanks!
I used this as a guide.

It's supposed to be so you can move (some, not all) apps 2 SD card.
The problem is it does not automaitcally move the app to the card. You still have to move it manually. Also, when you update on Google Play, the app moves back to the internal storage.
It's not perfect and hopefully Android N improves this.
Is it for everyone? No. Some people do use it but some don't need it. Just leaving it "Portable"/External as it has been for years, still works fine.
I just did it because I can.
As you may all know Samsung disabled the Adoptable storage function in the Tab S and Tab S2. Even the well known S7 hack doesn't work on the Tab S.
Well now it's back...
Thanks to some legwork (no pun intended) by @longshanks197 we now have a workable solution.
I have created this patch to fix the issue by patching the boot image and replacing sm.jar in system.
This will enable the adoptable storage feature in Settings>Storage
NOTE: as yet this is untested on the S2 but should work as it does on the Tab S. Someone please report back with info.
I advise making a backup with TWRP before proceeding.
INSTALL:
Copy the zip below to your device then install with TWRP.

This enables it natively in settings.

Once installed, did you tap on the card in the STORAGE section where it says "corrupt"? Or did you try a new card? I've tried with a 128gb (which was already in my device as a first test) and a 64gb which I am currently using.
Yes, i tapped on the card in the storage section.it doesn't says corrupt. My card was already in my device as mobile storage before flashing this patch. When i click on my sd card, i have two options: unmount and format. When i click on format it says: format as mobile storage. Sorry for my bad english my device is in french and i don't speak english very well

No. First I inserted sd card but unfortunately it was corrupted so I had to remove it. Since phone wasn't accepting the SD card it never gave me option to set it as internal or portable storage. Internal was unavailable from the beginning itself however internal storage is accessible in Stock, beta 5 firmware . I also tried to re flash but no success.

Format SD Card from PC. then use it again.
I recommended use a faster (XC or HC) SD Card.(Class 10) for better performance.
While flashing it takes long time why so?

Bcoz.... Flashing a ROM means install a new OS on the system(device). It format partitions and install whole OS on it.
Also boot time takes longer than usually for first time.

Hi,
I faced the same problem as you.
The solution that worked for me is...
You can set up the device's internal in settings-->Storage and USB
For the Card do this...
Go to the developers options and enable root access and local terminal.
Open the terminal app and type
su
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and hit enter. Allow root access.
Type
sm list-disks
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You should see the disk's name i.e. SD card. If you don't see it. Format your card as FAT32 from PC first and then try.
Now type
sm set-force-adoptable true
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Wait for it... Now there should be a card ready to be set up in the notification bar.

Yes, HTC allows that. Samsung removed that option because of the changes they made to their custom kernel.
What aboot the "force allow apps on external" setting in dev options? Wouldn't this allow apps to be installed on the sdcard first?

I think this should work
There is a build.prop for it that is off in stock. Regardless there's nothing stopping you from doing this as root so rooted the answer is definitely yes. As for rootless I don't think it's possible unfortunately.
