Unable to attach image files to SMS, etc after enabling ADOPTABLE STORAGE - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[note4 SM-N910T, 6.0.1] problem attaching image files (to text messages, or uploading to facebook using chrome) after adding real SD card as adoptable storage
submitted just now by QUAKE
Hello, I used this method to turn my note 4's adoptable storage on:
Using Root Essentials app, I went to storage adoptable storage, adopt (full card) Migrate Data From settings > storage > SD card > triple dot > migrate data
after this the problem occurs
reboot
I 'reverted' by migrating data back to internal, but that only worked once. And I don't wanna use that since I wand DCIM, and etc to be on on my external adopted SD card
SUGGESTIONS?!

[Q] sd card as default memory

hi guys i have recently bought a 64gb sd card for my gt-i9505. what can i do to make the sd card my external source of storage, so that way everything such as music, pics, apps etc will save to the card by default instead of the internal storage? my phone is also rooted if that helps.
xposed has a module that forces camera app to store everything on external sd.
In the most browsers you can set your download path (set it to /sdcard1/downloads)
If you have the music/video/picture files, just move them to your sd card.
But for Images Dude, i9505 by default stores them to external SD card. But if you see they are going to Internal storage then you can define the path in setting of camera app. for other apps there are also options to save the files on internal storage or external.

Swap Internal and External storage

Hi, friends please can anyone guide me how can I swap internal and external storage on YU. Currently all the data like games data, WhatsApp data are saved in internal memory and are lost with phone format.
u can take backup of the obbs & other data via MTP. If rooted, use titanium backup to save game & apps data of the current state which u can later restore after formatting. Save the backups on ext. SDcard or a PC for safety reasons.
Honestly, i have no idea, whether u can swap internal & external storage.

You can try this app (requires root access)
Root External to Internal
http://download.downloads.ws/app/41392
Works on Samsung devices, haven't tried it on Yureka yet.
Look for the port number of mmc in settings.
Fill up proper paths for swapping (use root explorer for finding paths)
& swap it.
If it works fine, then only tick on [on boot] option.
Currently I am using Folder Mount
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en
for using/storing game data from mmc in Yureka.

How to extend internal storage

Hello everyone, I would like to extend my internal storage. I am using Android M on my XT1562.
I tried to use my SD card has an internal storage but unfortunately it stops formatting at 30%. After a reboot the SD card is shown as internal storage but if I open ES file explorer for example the storage capacity is still 10gb (which is the capacity of the internal storage). So I will have to use it as an external storage as before.
Is there any option to change for example the download folder/the install folder for new apps to the external SD card? Or do I need to root the phone?
Another question is if I could use my SD card as internal storage how about transferring files to my PC? How does that work?

Once you format your SD card as internal storage, it can not be seen in any file manager. Also it cannot be seen on pc. Although you can move data through settings which shows your internal and SD card storage but you can only view it through by going to settings.
You cannot the change the location of apps to be installed in Android 6.0

Once you have set the SD card to internal any apps that you install that could previously be moved to the SD card will install to the SD card, any apps that could not be previously install to the SD card will install on the internal memory.

problems with using sdcard as "portable storage" under marshmallow.

Hi, I have opted to use my sd card as "portable storage" rather than adopting it as "internal storage"
But it doesn't work as expected. Such as
1. Apps which previously allow data to be stored on sd card ( such as stock camera ), now simply
stores it in phone memory even though in the app, settings point to sd card.
2. All apps cannot be moved to sd card. Previously under lollipop, some apps can.
Cant find any options to do so under settings->storage & usb OR settings->apps. Is it still possible.?
If yes, what do I need to do?
Thanks
rooting will help ....!!! but dont know how to root.... ??? normal step of rooting not working.....
found this in lenovo forum:
In Marshmallow, you need to format you SD card as internal storage in order to move apps and that to all apps are not movable.
To make changes you can go to : Settings -> Storage -> Click on "SD Card" -> More -> Format as internal
Note : Make sure to take data backup before formatting your SD card, as all data from SD card will get erased when formatting.

Out of scope.
He's asking how to use sd card as 'portable storage' and not 'internal storage'.
I did the same for the camera, and photos/videos are stored in sd card, please check again.
In these 6.0 version for k3, no option in settings to move apps, but maybe will arrive later..
for some apps, you can move data from internal to sd card (like sygic).
Marshmallow another screwed fcuk, format as 'internal storage' r only options for moving apps/games to sd card.

Adoptable Storage - Anyone got it to work?

I tried the Adoptable storage mod using ADB and everything went through fine with no errors during ADB.
The file size of internal storage is still 32GB reported through the phone's storage setting. It also shows my 64 GB SD card through the phone's storage as well.
SD card disappeared from the File Manager on the phone and does not show up on my PC when connecting the phone.
I filled up the 32 GB internal storage with apps and movies and I am unable to put anymore on. Pretty much indicating that the adoptable storage feature is not working.
I am in the process of factory resetting with the partitioned SD card to see if that fixes anything.

I used the mod to split my 200gb card in half. It worked for me as you can see by the ss.
I finally got mine to correct the total device storage size. Now to see if apps install properly if I fill up the internal storage.
Time to download a ton of crap from Oculus and I'll see what happens.
When you guys say you finally got it to work, what exactly did you do different because I tried exactly as the how-to says and couldn't get it.

After you follow the steps to partition the SD Card, Go to Settings > Storage > SD Card > More (upper right corner). Then migrate files to the SD Card.
Once the migrate completes then I believe that the SD Card is properly made into adoptable storage.
New apps and data should now fill you your SD Card first, before using internal storage.

My internal phone storage is full and i migrated the internal sd-card (go to Storage-->internalSD-card--->dots uppercorner and migrate) like u said but still the apps won't install on the internal sd-card...

Help me with my Sony Aqua m4 8gigs... PLZ
I'm curious about something. Been trying to get this to work but after doing "sm partition disk:179,0 private" (without the quotes) it is my understanding that it may take a while but in no less than 2 seconds it goes back to hero2qltespr:/ $
I also do not see the Migrate data option in (Storage-->internalSD-Card---> upper corner dots). On my Sprint S7 Edge it's Settings --> Device Maintenance --> Storage --> and the 3 dots only has Storage Settings. Once in there there isn't an option to migrate data.
Any idea what I can be doing wrong or does Nougat remove that Migrate option on the Sprint version.
