Well , the problem I'm having is that I can't format my micro sd as internal storage. Instead, it says "Move Media". Does anyone haveing the same problem ?
Tbe X4 simply doesn't support it, because of the file based encryption. As far as I know, if anyone find a way to force disable FBE we should be able to use adoptable storage.

Just trying to find out if there's a way to mount only the External SD card without Internal SD?
whenever will pull down the status bar, and hit mount
it always mounts both the internal and external SD
whenever i do that the apps in the phone that requires internal SD are stuck
so it'll be best to be able to move files around without interfering with the installed apps running off the Internal SD
Have you found anything yet?
I'd like this too, so I could play music on my car from the external sd.
E: Ah now found an app, Multi Mount sd-card does it.
First, sorry, SORRY, for this question, but after two days searching in xda and google I could'n find the aswer. I also searched on FAQs (note and s2 FAQs) but I could't find it.
/data is only 2gb, and usb storage +-11gb. I know "USB Storage" is /sdcard/ and /external_sd/ is the external microsdcard.
Searching, I found that some people said that "Settings -> Applications -> [app] -> Move to SD" were moving their apps to /sdcard/ (USB Storage), but others said that their apps were moving to EXTERNAL sd.
In my N7000, apps are moved to EXTERNAL sd, not usb storage. I don't like this because SD is slower, so I ask...
-Is there any way to move to USB Storage (internal 11gb partition)?.
-Is there any way to resize /data from 2gb to -+7-8gb? (even if root is needed)?
-Will ICS update change some of this?
-If "Move to SD" move to "USB Storage" in some devices, what firm version are they running?
Sorry again for askin, thank you for reading and thank you so much for answers.
P.S. sorry for my english.
no one can clarify this?
to resize the 2gb you would need to find a way to repartition the device
and most normally go to the sd card ratehr than internal storage as thats how the apps2sd is made, you might have to find a way to hack it to use the internal storage rather than sd card
Maybe try to remove the external sd card and then start moving your apps to sd card? I think this way it'll go to internal since it'll be the only sd card available..

humm... maybe a link in "/sdcard/external_sd/" to something like "/sdcard/fake_sd/"?... would require external memory... but all data would be on the internal, so it should be much faster... humm...

I tryed it, but when I try "Move to SD" from Settings > Applications it says something like "No SD. Insert SD card.".
BTW, ICS will have the same partitions? I read something that it will be like Galaxy Nexus, without parition (and without USB Mass Storage, only MTP)... How is it on SGS2? I'm sure it will be the same...
Hello, I would like to know if it's somehow possible to disable completely the internal virtual SD card and set the external SD as main one.
I guess that if it would be possible to change the External SD from sdcard1 to sdcard0, that should fix it.
I tried to remove the sdcard0 but I couldn't (Seems to be mounted somewhere, but I don't know where). In Kitkat there was a file in /system/etc/fstab.vold where you could find find the sdcard0 and sdcard1 entries and swap them easily. But in android Lollipop it seems impossible. Tried linking files from the virtual SD card to the external SD by using softlinks, but Android says "Permission Denied" even when I'm in root mode.
Does somebody knows how to do that? (I'm aware that that way the multiuser option wouldn't be working correctly)
Greetings.
I'm looking for a solution for this too hopping one dev can help us =D because folder mount doesn't work with lollipop don't know why
hi all!!
i have xperia sp 8 gb!! installing few app takes lot of space .. with the new feature in marshmallow (installed cm13)
where we can use sd card as internal memory and move app + whole data. however if we use that function the data is encrypted and we cant flash anything using twrp or even cant install the updates.
so i wanted to create a partition where 25-50% can be used as internal and rest as portable!!
i have tried to create partition using TWRP .. result failed.. nothing really happened ,, tried both ext3/ext4 and after reboot the sd card detected has to be used either as portable or internal
then i tries app2sd and link2sd both are again not able to create partition.
app2sd has option to create adoptable storage which it actually created and i could see 25% as internal and 75% as external however when i tried to move app it was just like move to sd card.. where app was moved to adoptable storage and data still remains in internal memory!!
anyone can please help... in short i want to use my sd card both as internal and external storage!!
internal : to move big apps with data
external : so that i can flash apps/ install updates!!
thanks in advance
Hey devs is there any way to remove the type of encryption that lenovo make while formating the SD Card As Internal storage so, it cant be used in any other device after formating it as internal storage
There were many important files in my sd card but now i cant access to my lenovo phone and i need that data from that SD Card To Pc via a card reader but there's that type of encryption in my sd card is preventing me to do this as it is formated as internal storage
So is there any way to get data from my sd card without having my phone?

No way. Internal storage format was made to be usable only with the phone. That's why it is "INTERNAL" format.
Phone is necessary.
Also, another recommendation. Do NOT turn on your phone with internal formatted SD card out of device.
