Hi guys, although i use miui on my N1 for a long time i am new with miui on the X5, and i am having a issue with every single version of miui.
The thing is, at the first boot my internal SD card is not detected, even selecting it on the X5 settings app.
The only workaround i found was to enable UMS and then it gets detected.
The thing is that after adding files to the SD and disabling the mass storage it prompts to copy files from internal memory to SD but actually deletes all the files previously added except apk`s.
Can anyone help please.
Thanks.
Hi,
Xolo q700 has 4GB internal memory bifurcated as ROM+Internal Storage+Phone Storage, with Internal Storage ~1GB and Phone Storage ~2GB
Most of the time, I use SD card instead of Phone Storage and I am finding that the free Internal Storage has come down to ~60 MB. I can't install many apps because of this.
I was trying to see if we can re-partition the Internal Memory to have more Internal Storage by getting space from Phone Storage. I don't want to use Link2SD because I can't run most apps if I remove the SD card. Also don't want to keep apps data on SD card.
I came across many threads, but by far [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2240954] looks the simplest.
Anyone else has done something similar to their q700/q700i?
Admin/Devs, can you help us?
Thanks,

You Can Use Meteos App for that, here is guide for Q700/Q700i by @raja4sure : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2668599
Hi, hello all
I'm new there, so ff there was a similar topic, forgive me.
I bought a few days ago Honor 7 with 16GB intermal memory. I have also 32GB microSD card.
I read before buying that I can move all the applications on the SD card, but some I can't move - for example "Allegro" - its same as eBuy, but polish, and Facebook.
I'm also set SD card qua default memory, but I can't move all apps, and new install on internal memory.
It is beyond the root a way to move all the applications on the SD?
I read that update to android M allows you to extend the internal memory of the SD card, but is it true?
How to solve this problem?
Greetings,
Adam
*Some* apps cannot be moved to SD card, even if the phone has the feature. Its just like that - they can be installed in the internal memory only. This is true for any brand / model of android phones.
For the apps that are not movable to sd - you would see the "move to sd card" button grayed out in the system>app settings.
Upgrading Honor 7 to MM is not going to solve the problem. (As a matter of fact, i installed a beta update of MM (b304 firmware) that has been provided as a link in another thread in XDA - and NOW I AM NOT ABLE TO MOVE ANY APP TO SD CARD. Even worse, all my older apps installed in the sd card have 'disappeared'.
So ... cheer up, you are in a much better position than me ...lol.
Hope that helps.
Meanwhile, enjoy the marvelous phone - Honor 7
There is an app 'Link2SD', which I use on Honor7 with Lollipop and is quite flexible in what can be moved, or linked to the SD card. Not saying its the answer, but may do what you are wanting achieve. The developer has a section on XDA forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919326
Hi all,
I'm writing here hoping someone could help me with what's happening with my phone.
I've had this Moto G5 Plus (with a 16 gb MicroSD on) for about a year and I never had any problem until yesterday.
Yesterday morning, after I backed up Whatsapp using Google Drive for the first time (and I mention it because it's the only thing I did before starting to notice the issues, I don't know if it's related) I noticed that I couldn't download images and voice notes on Whatsapp - when I try to do it I get a "Download Failed, The download was unable o complete. Please try again later" message - nor send them - trying to do so I get a "camera failed" message.
When connecting the phone to my PC I can't copy anything on it, when I try to do it it seems like Windows is starting to copy stuff, but then the progress bar doesn't move and nothing happens.
Yesterday I took a couple of photos, but I later found out that they weren't saved anywhere on the phone.
I'm also having issues loading videos on Instagram - they keep loading but won't stream - and trying to clean the phone with Google Files Go I'm getting a "Can't delete file. Error Unknown".
I honestly have no idea what could be causing it (but it looks like something's up with the storage) or how to solve it, so I'm hoping anyone could shed some light on this.
Many thanks in advance
EDIT: forgot to say, the phone is completely stock and not rooted
Does the storage default to SD card or onboard storage?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean with that, can you elaborate?
I've had the same problem with both my moto g 2014 and my moto g5 plus. I've set my SD to operate as internal storage. The SD is not designed to operate as an internal storage and in both phones, the 2 SDs soon became corrupted. I've never used the SD as internal storage since and I advise you not to do it anymore. Your problem is that your sd became corrupted. You'd better check if the SD is still under warranty and claim a replacement.

The weird thing is that I checked with a different SD (which I also formatted as internal for the test) and I had the same problem.
You'd better stop using any SD as internal on Android. It's just not meant to be. Trust me, I've lost 3 SD cards because they were formatted as internal storage. Your other SD probably became corrupted as well. Try operating the card as external storage. Besides, moto g5 plus houses 32gb of internal rom, which is enough to keep a handful of applications installed on it. Keep the SD as external storage, internal storage is not a real option IMHO.

I'll give it a try and let you know if it works alright when I get home later on, but it seemed weird that the first SD worked fine for a year before becoming corrupt and the second one was corrupted from the first attempt of using it...I'll see what happens with it as external storage tho

I tried just removing the SD to use the phone with just the internal storage.
I've got 7GB of free space and when trying to shoot a photo I'm getting an "Your internal storage is running out of space" error.
Have you got any idea what could b the issue?
Have you tried wiping cache through recovery? Have you rebooted after removing the sd? Have you set the internal storage as default storage of camera app?

That wont "uncorrupt" your sdcard because the sdcards "identity" (so your device can identify one sdcard from another) is stored elsewhere instead of just cache/dalvik cache. Also, what do you mean you went through 3 sdcards? You do realize those flagged corrupted sdcards were only flagged for that particular session (meaning, for that particular install) so you could have simply reinstalled the firmware and it would have reset the sd. I paid over $50 for a high end sdcard, which has also been flagged as corrupt on several occasions but never "perma"-flagged..

I told him to wipe cache because the internal storage was flagged as full by the camera app. I know that this won't fix the corrupted ad cards. What I mean by saying that I lost 3 SD cards is that although I even used gparted to try to fix them, I was unable to do so because of errors I currently can't recall. I had to return them to the retailer I bought them and he returned them to Samsung (evo 32 gb) and after that I was told that I can have replacements for all 3 of them.

I tried all that and it didn't work.
I ended up calling Amazon and using the warranty to have it replaced, I don't have much time to play with the phone trying to fix it and I needed a fully working phone quickly.
Thanks anyway everyone for the help
Best thing to do, you are welcome neigbour (I live in Greece).
My wife has the Verizon XT1609 model of the G4 Play, it comes with 16 GB internal storage. I added 120 GB SD card and formatted it as internal storage so that there wouldn't be an issue with space running out, but that isn't working. For some reason, the built-in internal storage is still filling up even though there are 70-80 GB available on the SD card. I can't move any Apps because everything is already internal storage
Has anyone else had this issue with this phone? Could it be a bug in Android 7.1, maybe flashing a 9.0 ROM would fix it?
Same problem and not solution yet... i have 32gb and alway say.. low space
