[Q] Help installing apk Galaxy Ace 2 GT-I8160 - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i'm trying to install the game asphalt 7 on my device, but i have to place a 1.3GB folder inside "sd/Android/obb" problem is my phone only has 1gb of internal memory, does this mean i cant play this game at all? Is there any way i could use my external sd to put the files there, i got plenty space in there, any way of boosting the internal memory?
My phone is rooted so if i needed to install anything i can, any help will be much apreciated, thanks:laugh:

Hi mate.
First lemme tell ya dat u r in the wrong Forum.
Secondly yes the game data can be stored in sd-card. Worked for me in case of NFS SHIFT.
Thirdly you can partition your sd-card and Link your apps to sd card whereby phone memory will be freed.
You can find the proceedure to create EXT partition in XDA by searching or may checkout my blog www.andro-sapien.blogspot.in
Dont forget to hit Thanks if i helped

Thanks a lot man, did it following the instructions from your blog and it worked like a charm, just a couple of questions, if i buy a new SD do i have to do the process again? And also, could you tell me which is the correct forum so i dont make the same mistake again

Always welcome mike, i had started the blog to help my friends who find xda confusing.
And Sorry to say but currently for your device there is no Q&A section but still you can use Galaxy Ace 2 General Forum.

Use external sd card as internal sd card?

I have a samsung galaxy gt-i9001 and I am a big fan of gameloft and there games. I play a lot of different games on my phone. But slowly my internal sd card begins to fill up. Now i only have 5 mb left. But i have a 16 gb micro sd card. And there is plenty of memory left there. I was wondering if it is possible to mount my external sd card as my internal sd card, so there will be more space for games and other files needed for apps. Currently i am on the latest cm9 rom. But i am willing to change this.
Also sorry if this question allready was answerd in a different thread. I googled the question but nothing came up.
Also sorry for bad english.

Isnt working for ics... do i really need to downgrade back to gingerbread to be able to do this?

So basically my question is: is it possible to do this on i9001 running on ics?

go in settings/apps/pn sd card/pres app/mount to sd card.
No. Thats not it. Thanks for reply anyway. I would like that my phone "thinks" that my external sd card, my internal sd card is. (Sorry for bad english) so that then actually swap. So when a game saved data automatically on the internal sd card, it will actually be stored on my external sd card... but the apps think they store data in internal...
Am i so unclear?

Delete what? Unnecessary crap? Go to system/app and remove things you don't need/want. I suspect that you're a bit noobish, so check out the thread, "Applications that's Safe To Remove", or something like that (just scroll up).

Keep out microsd, Go in cwm, partition sd-card internal, then format reinstall Rom... in android go in play store install link2sd, launch app first time, then you can install all other app.

If I understand the question correctly, he wants to know how to increase RAM, not storage. Storage is not a big deal both internal or external. But RAM is only 800+M and mostly 700+M is occupied and makes Note sluggish sometimes. Anyway, this is my first post at xda and greetings to each & every1 of you
Use TB
Just install Titanium Backup and goto Batch mode then scroll down to Un-Install all user and system apps. Then follow this link https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...1gdDJRekl4QmkyNmIzUmRvX2h3UDVkQXc&output=html to see whats safe to remove. Remove all that you do not require and you will find a huge difference in space which will speed up your device as well. Hope this helps.

You need at least noob knowledge of adb (ie copy-pasting commands).
The second command was
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0

Hi uguro. If you want to transfer "GAMES" data I recommend you to download GL2SD (gameloft-to-sd). It's compatible with almost all games (even if they are not from gameloft company) and it will move your data to SD without any problem and saving a lot of space on your phone. On the other hand, if you wanna move apk to sd, you can try Link2SD. You need to make a 1GB "primary" partition on your SD card in ext2 format (I'm using "Mini Tool Partition Wizard Home Edition" on windows to do that) and let Link2SD to mount it after rebooting your device.
Hope it will be useful.
Hey uguro you can move all your apps to sd card if your phone is rooted.
Download titanium backup and titanium backup pro(key license) both of them requires root permision.
N u can dwnld key license from blackmart alpha.
I thought Link2SD didn't work on this phone.

[Trick] Gain Extra 40MB

I found this tip on a website and the trick claims to increase your internal memory by about 40MB.... I can't paste the link because it's a website with some paid apps and xda may delete the thread if I do, so instead I've just copied and pasted the post, here it is...
Hey Guyz Today i come with a trick which will help You to Increase the internal memory of your device. Its the most easiest method and best of all... It requires no Root Access and no
need to partition Your SD Card!!! This method actually reduces your used memory. This easy way to gain at least 40 mb of internal storage on your phone:
1. open dialler, and press *#9900#
2. Then select 'copy to sd card'
3. Wait until finish, Done !!
Results vary because it reduced about 50 mb on my SGY Duos and reduced about 7 mb on my friends SG Gio. Usually work well on unroot device & non partitioned SD Card May be usefull but wont recommend on
devices with high memory!!!
