its impossible to increase internal memory - its like a hard drive you cant make it bigger without putting a new one in
you can free up internal memory by linking apps to a 2nd ext sd partion
search how to use link2sd and create a 2nd ext partition on your sd card

It is impossible to increase internal memory from the phone. Instead you can borrow some from sd card.
Your phone must be rooted.
Make a second partition in your sd card and use private apps such as link2sd, app2sd, etc to move the apps to that second partition.
Also set the install location to sd card.
And then start installing the games you want.

Just Rooted

Hi Guys,
Just rooted using the one click method v3, all worked fine!!, so a big thank you to the creator!!
I have installed titanium backup and have disabled the system update program and removed a couple of games that were on it which I couldn't remove before!! These were 2 of the main reasons I rooted!!
I just wanted to ask if there are any other programs that can tweek the system to create more space on the built-in storage and free-up ram etc!? also can I install/move stuff (apps/games) to the SD card? The reason I ask is because the phone says I can 52mb of storage memory left! I kept getting warnings before I rooted!!
Thanks in advance
Yes

The app link2sd is the way to go now you have route. Do a google on how to use.
Basically you add a second partition of say 1/2gb to you memory card just for link2sd. you move everything back to internal memory, then can 'link' to sd. Moves more apps to sd and frees up loads of room. Long to set up but once done should have loads of space from there on in!
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
If you don't want to partition, DroidSail app2sd can move quite a lot of apps
Thanks for the information, I have moved some apps across with app2sd, do I need to do anything else? Do I need to delete them off the main memory? Thanks

Haven't used that app dude but you should be fine and it'll have moved them from internal memory to the sd card.

How can I expand my internal storage?

Hey guys, hoping you could could give me more of a 'step-by-step' guide on how to expand my internal memory with my 8gb SD card. Please keep it mega-simple, I only got this phone yesterday, and managed to flash ICS thanks to a very basic tutorial.
Thanks

?? What ROM r u using ??
The easiest way is using application or script that move application to SD card. These things will move your application to your sd card and not wasting your internal memory. it's work perfectly fine.
There are many script available - chose one that match your ROM cause not all script are working perfectly to every ROM.
try search using A2SD and ....... (your ROM) to see which one work and which one donot...... Unfortunately i have to tell u that some script might working well with someone's phone (even u have the same ROM).
The second way is to install the app to SD program, like link2sd, app2sd... it's free on the market. Also this program is not working on everyone's phone. However it's easier to install.
after install script and application there might be a problem like low sound, lag, internet issue etc. so check that everything is Ok after u do anything.
I can't give u a step by step 'cause i dont know which ROM r u using.....

it's different for roms indeed. generally we have app2sd, app2sd+(aka app2ext), data2ext, d2sd, ad2sdx and so on.
the most basic and convenient 1 is link2sd from play store~
i think it's impossible to expand an internal storage. capacity is fixed. i read somewhere that some of space will be used for kernel and ROMs wil use another some of internal memory space to copy system files. so normally you will have internal memory available around 150-200MB depends on partition layout you make. the only way if you want to install many application is as mentioned above to move your application to SDcard,and i think link2sd app is the easiest way to do that

You can move main apps but not apps'libs file so yeah still you can free up some more :good:
Use Apps to Sd on your device. You can download it from google play.
In Link2SD if I try the "Move to SD card" function it give me the following warning message "App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card." A similar warning message is giving AppMgr III app.
On the other hand, on Symbolic Link (of Link2SD) the message - Root Access Warning - Link2SD could not obtain root access and Create link button is deactivated (gray).
In order to free us some space, is there a way to move / link the apps to 2 SD card without to have root access on a Samsung Galaxy Express i8730 ?
Thanks,

look, there are certain apps which can be moved to the SD card. Some cannot. Some will work only with partial features when moved to SD. If the option to move to SD card is greyed out, u simply can't.

thats native moving to sd which isnt recommended - for example if you nativally move a widget to sd it will not work
- all apps can actually be linked to sd including widgets so that they act like they are on internal storage but actually they are on sd card hense the term linked
there are many different methods and scripts to do this - just search

you confuse that with swap

Almost every apps use internal as storage space . Some games like GTA3 or so ( which need extra data ) uses sd as their data storage . So Facebook CAN NOT BE moved to SD-Card but you can link and by that , can free some internal memory
Hit thanks if I helped/Assisted you

Wait... what??? For real?
This would effectively prevent me from using OmniROM ever.
Are you saying it's a bug, or that the feature has truly been eliminated going forward?
Security and file system changes have caused certain "move app to external storage" scripts and apps to fail. This is not an Android-level issue.

Do you know then, is there a way to fool apps to install at least their data on external card?
On N7100 there is mere 10GB of space, install 2 gameloft games, and phone cries it's out of storage space. And I have 64GB card, 128GB on its way.
I understand they cry for FAT32's lack of permission support, but what If I format the card in ext4?
Or could I possibly swap internal and external card (I, of course, understand it's risky and dangerous action).
I haven't looked into it yet, but this might help.

That's not the issue here.
I can read/write on both sdcards (emulated and physical).
Problem is that internal space runs out quickly, and there is no obvious way to force apps to use external card instead of emulated.
I.e. If I install Nova 3 (3.5 GB), Asphalt 8 (3.7 GB) and Galaxy on Fire 2 (1.2 GB), uce omnirom system update and make couple of photos, I'm out of space, and can't even update apps through google play, because it requires alot of extra space, not even mention i.e. recording a video. And my 64GB card sits useless in its slot.

If you are rooted you can accomplish this by using an app called folder mount. When you open the app use the add button at the top right name the folder, for example (RR3) for real racing, then tap the source button and navigate to the folder the app data is stored in, for games usually android/data or android/obb chose that folder and leave the destination folder name the same, it will prompt you so just chose yes, press the check button at the top right and then wait for the folder to be moved, you can monitor the progress in the status bar, it may take some time if it is a large game or app, when it is complete simply press the mount button in the folder mount app then go back and play your game. to verify that the folder was moved successfully check your internal storage in android settings before and after you use folder mount. Make sure before you use the app or game you have the folder mounted or you may get an error or in the case of real racing the game tried to redownload all the game assets. Hope this helps.
thank you
