l recently realized, that non of my apps stored on my sdcard if changed the app location to the sd. And if I eject the card, the apps, which suppose to be in the external storage, are not in my appdrawer, and l cant use them. So l searched for the files, and l found them in may phones internal storage, and only folders with the apps name were in the sdcard. I tried to move them manually but then the couldn't recognize anything. I have lots of free space in the sdcard, so that can't be a problem. I have the g3311 version. Do anyone know the solution for this?
And i olso turned in the force allow external option in the developer options, restarted, but still nothing

Anytime i download apps from the market, my phone memory fills up. Although from Manage Applications, it shows that the apps are saved in the SD card. Can someone please help me out?
Only a part of the app gets stored in sdcard, the executable files are still in the internal memory.. You can partition your sdcard and have more space for apps.. Search the forum about how to do that
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, but I cannot figure out how to make the external SD card the default storage. Be it for downloads or data from apps, it's all saved on the internal one and I can't see a way to change it. Most answers I found on google are suggesting to change it in the settings (storage --> make SD card primary storage, which is not available) or in the aosp browser (not available either).
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Three screen shots to see below.
1. I don't think there is a "global" setting to make everything go to the SD card - some things just won't work from there.
2. You can move all your videos, pictures to the SD card - see screen shot.
3. The camera app has a setting for SD card as default - just search my posts as I already have posted screen shot of this.
4. Some individual apps can be moved to SD card, there is two places under settings /apps to see. a) individual app page whether it can be moved and b) the tab were it shows all the apps that are on the SD card. I haven't tried it but I think from this tab you can also select multiple apps to move to SD card at the same time. I would guess that ones that cannot be moved would be grayed out. Also keep in mind that sometimes apps that can be moved to SD card don't work properly afterwards. Most widgets fall into this category.
I hope this helps you.
there are a billion apps that will move the programs to your sd card link2sd is one example. Or you can wait till we get Android M
One cuestion about sd-card: google play music, cm music, apollo, don't read my mp3 files placed in sd-card, vlc player it reads, have: unlocked bootloader, squid kernel, stock rom, root, xposed, gravity box, no device check. Any idea?
To Makr external sd as defult u need to root your phone then install xposed frame work after that just install the modupe name Xinternal and in xposed tick mark on xinternal now your external sd is default
Who would want everything on extSD? Why not use your fast internal storage if you can? Music, Photos and videos on SD should be sufficient.
I have a 64GB SD card that I want to use as internal storage. Save my photos, videos, apps, and music downloaded via Google Music. However, even though I formatted it via the Storage and USB menu, it remains unused. I also cannot migrate any of my dozens of apps. Am I doing something wrong here...?
You can at least recognize it and put files into it? At least for me, the apps that could be migrated went automatically (the phone asked if I wanted to move the apps and it moved those he could). When I put in my pc, it only recognize the SD card, the internal storage is not accessible for me.
Are you facing any errors?
Did u install the newest twrp (3.0.0)? It fixes the issues with adaptable storage

If you formatted it for portable storage instead of formatting for internal then that will be your problem
Hi,
As title says, I have an issue with Here Maps. I set SD card as my default phone memory and apps are installing there with no issues. Except one. I can deal with the fact that the app itself installs in the phone memory but it's storing maps there too. In the app settings I don't have an option of MicroSD card, my options are Memory or "Emulated". When I choose the "emulated" it's still saving all the data in phone's memory. It's like my SD card was invisible. Any ideas how to change it? Thanks.
If someone's having the same problem, here's the solution I got from HERE:
1. Uninstall the app.
2. Go to a file manager.
3. Set “Show hidden files” to ON (i.e. so that hidden files are shown).
4. On both SD Card and Internal memory find the folder named .here-maps and remove/delete it.
5. On both SD Card and Internal memory check if there is still com.here.app.maps folder present (/Android/data/com.here.app.maps/)
6. If it is present, remove/delete it on both SD Card and Internal memory
7. Restart the phone
8. Install the app again
Surprisingly it still shows either Memory or "Emulated" as storage options. More - when I want to download some maps there's a status bar showing how much memory I have, it's called "internal" but it shows that there's 56,71 GB left. That's SD card for sure and that's where maps are stored. So it works, it just may be slightly confusing because it says "internal" but it stores everything on MicroSD.
Hi,
I just tried to activate adoptable storage over adb. This storage is recognized in settings menu, but the storage is shown as nearly full. I cant install any apps.
Did anyone noticed that and knows a workaround?
Thanks
Adoptable storage is not supported by EMUI.. I tried many times to find a workaround but it never worked, it is probably not possibile.
i think emui has it's own version of it, it's in the storage settings, called "default storage".
if you change that to sdcard it will put everything on the sdcard including apps i think (or at least the app data).
for example in spotify there's an option to change the storage location. if sdcard is set as default, spotify doesn't show that option anymore, and all songs are stored on the sdcard
