You have this feature already avaible in the stock rom, why would you try another things ? I use the SD Card as the internal storage from the first day i bought this phone. Is working like a charm,everything, and when i say everything i mean EVERYTHING is going on SD Card. Photos,Apps,data/obb,everything. Just go to settings->Advanced settings->Memory-> and set the SD Card as default memory. (Android MM) It s almost the same on LP,the only thing is that you don't have the Advanced settings tab,you find the Memory in the main page.

Isn't that SD Card set as default memory so all the things go into it like it was the internal memory ?

Can't write to storage card? A little help?

I was trying to put a movie on my storage card and I keep getting the message that 's write protected. I'm using a Micro SD from my AT&T 8525 w/ an SD adapter and my internal card reader on my Dell XPS desktop w/ Win XP.
Does it have anything to do w/ that it's a 400MB file i'm trying to copy. This is just frustrating.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

That is a big file for the 8525, Still that does not explain the problem. I have seen this reported before, but I do not recall a solution. Theories about sector size etc etc.
You could try copying the contents of the SD temporarily to PC. Reformat the disk and try again. You could also try via active sync if you have a great deal of patience!

[Q] What's installed & how do I update it?

Hello
My girlfriend borrowed her dads HD2, and now it stopped working. She talked to him and most likely it requires an update of Android.
I'm usually pretty tech-savvy, but the language spoken on this forum is beyond my comprehension.
So, I have a HD2 with both win & Android installed. To boot into Android i need to go into windows and press two files on the SD-card: "CLRCAD" & "HARET".
The files look like this in Windows (pc):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Her dad mentioned Boxmax 6.5, so I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1100560
The files I downloaded from there looks pretty similar, aside from a few additions on the phone.
Downloaded the SD-one, but now i'm lost.
How do I update the phone? Just overwrite the files with the new ones or clean install? If it's a clean install, how do i do it? Do i need to backup something?
Backup all files on the SD card to a safe place (pc).
Delete folder Android on the card.
Copy the Android folder from the archive you downloaded.
Pop the SD card back into HD2, and start Android from winMo (clrcad, haret) or better yet install the exceller autoboot.
Thanks alot, sounds easy enough
When i pop the things back on the SD-card from the backup-folder, I still need to install all the apps and widgets again right?
Edit: Oh, and what about all her messages? Are they stored on the phone?

Yeah, you usually use titanium backup, heh.

Thanks so far for all the help, I got it working fine except, and this might be a really n00bish question, how do I turn off the phone?
Nevermind, found Quickboot

[Q] Low storage issue

Hello,
I am currently running cm-11-20140324-NIGHTLY-vs980 on my Verizon LG G2 and have run into low storage issues. I have posted a screenshot showing this below. I should have used 16.81GB out of ~24GB, with ~7.2GB left over. However, somehow I am missing storage space and only have 2.7GB available.
When I installed cyanogenmod, I don't remember creating a partition and cannot figure out how I would determine this.
I am using clockworkmod 6.0.4.7 if that helps.
How can I hunt down that missing storage space?
Thank you!

It's in miscellaneous storage

If you add all of it up, the used space should leave me with ~7GB. However I have ~2GB left so that leaves 5GB unaccounted for that are not in misc.

Same for me on my d802 from 32 i have 24.5 and this is ok.
But i have as used space 16.5gb and it tell me that i have 4gb free, so...
24.5-16.5 should be something like 8gb... :/ also file managers tell me that i have used 16.5gb as total, i cant understand where i lost the space, missing about 4gb, wiping cache didnt solve the problem.
I am on cm12.1 based on temasek

Ok finally solved
Idk why wiping didnt delete this file.
Thanks to Disk Analizer i found that Internal Storage has 16gb but Media show 20.
Damn files were here /data/media/obb/ probably old obb file of games.
My obb now are stored in /data/media/0/android/obb.
The files in previuos folder arent used too. I still dont understand why they were not deleted.
However solved, i hope this can help sameone without wiping all partitions or use kdz

Well, the first question is, have you rooted your phone? If you haven't then it's a pointless endeavour to try move apps to SD card.

That application just ensures you have write access to the SD card and since RomAur is a stock based rom, it doesn't have "app2sd" support or rather, kitkat doesn't have that support.
Thats my understanding of the situation, I could be wrong.

[Q] Why would Dropsync/Autosync/Onesync not be able to write to emulated/0?

I'm having a strange problem with Dropsync/Autosync/Onesync on my GS4 running the "Mostly Stock NG2 v1.3" ROM -- I patched it to allow writing to the external SD card, but for some reason, even though the sync apps show the external SD card as writable, they don't show the emulated/0 folder as being writable, and the apps don't create their application directories as they normally should -- as a result, even though they can write to the SD card, they can't sync because they can't write to the device to keep track of what has been synced. I contacted the developer but he wasn't able to help me, besides identifying the problem is on the device storage side of things rather than a SD card issue.

I suggest you try a different ROM. There are a lot of important things missing in that ROM. Dialer chooses don't work for one. Almost any other NG2 ROM has the SD Card fix.

Any recommendations? I used to run TriForceROM 5.4 -- I'd like to find something similar, with crapware removed, wifi hotspot added, etc. but not a complete overhaul that introduces new problems.
