Root Make SD card as internal memory

If you dont know about foldermount then u need to learn about it.. its the bomb and works well i got gta sa on my phone i downloaded the caches into the sd card using my computer and the downloaded apk file onto my phone... i even think i could move that to sd but im not sure i then made a file same as gtasa on my obb files folder with nothing in it then linked it useing folder mount and bam.. i can now do anything i want to do this this phone as long as i have a computer to help me out.. and o can find the apk and caches to download to my computer due to lack of space on internal i do have the update spaming i just hold it down it says info and i just click boxs that says dont notify. But after my phone dies or i restart i do gotta do it again.. but it works for me

how did you make those itens below using mini partition tool wizard?
3.Back to main menu go into settings and check the option that says format using rf/rm ( something along those lines...lol )

4. Back to main then Wipe> Advanced> Wipe SD Ext

5. Back to main go back into Settings and uncheck the format using rf/rm .

Sorry for the late reply (been very busy lately), I will make a more detailed guide using parts from this guide. Of course credits will be given to the creator of this post. The reason why is because I feel this guide is a bit vague and if you're not very knowledgeable with computers/android then you might get lost easily.

Edit: Okay guys my guide is up: You can find it here

Dear wadja1,
I'm using LG l70 d325. phone was upgraded to version 5.1 with ClockworkMod. I want to use TWRP recovery to expansion memory, but I can not change into TWRP because after every reboot into CWM recovery system. What can I do to install TWRP. I also can not access download mode or fastboot mode. Thanks you!

why no fast boot? You could of booted fastboot, ran cmd in correct folder and just typed fastboot boot (recovery. Img)..you could try flashify though ? Just select image on app and reboot....DON'T FORGET YOU NEED ROOT(;
 
My dearest master developers :)

I'm just curious about the possible difference (speed and so on) between:

1. Repartition of system, internal and cache.

2. Internal to sd.

And

3. Link2sd.

???

I'm on ms323 with repartitioned system, so my internal is 2.56 GB, so I also wonder if (and why) the built in internal will still be there but not usable when on "internal to SD"? If I want to implement "internal to SD", is there any way I can make my built in internal usable, or will it be wasted?

Please, some good advice would be appreciated, thank you :)

I did repartitioning (Smaller one, thanks Kamil) and I'm using pico gapps. Any app outside pico gapps that I need, I install from Play Store. I keep all my apps installed on internal. If I want large games, I use foldermount (for Real Racing 3, for example).

Link2sd is nifty, but cumbersome in my opinion. Plus I have 8GB SD card, so not much to write home about. It's realy useful for 16GB+ cards.

Make a part of SD to behave as internal is good only for class 10 SD cards. Those dirt cheap are class 4 or 6 at best.

Internal disabler is a good solution, but then repartition isn't necessary, and one more thing: that (disabled internal) memory just sits there. It's a tedious job to make disablers, and they must be made for each new release. Take nightlies into consideration and you'll see there's much work to do for something which isn't that neccesary.

Anyway, that's just my opinion :)
 
Thanks....
just to share with all of you my experience doing this changes...
All like this post tells you is true....

But, After all my phone is slow and reboot often by it self.
Now I'm using CyanogenMod 12.1 for LG L70.
I Have a MicroSD 32GB Class 10 (partition of 16GB ext4)

I hope exist any fix for this problem.

Thanks.

You need to boot into android just IF you have a fresh rom to let the operating sistem make the data otherwise you don't need to do this. If you have followed every step is self explanatory how to flash a zip. Did you install the TWRP recovery as is says in description (link provided)?

I just installed CyanogenMod 12 before this, so how do I " boot into android" I'm lost here.

Hello Android users :-)

I have tested this method with my LG Gpad 7 and it works like a charm!!!!

Thanks very much for the developers hard work.

Kind regards,

I got to this page when I was searching for ways how I can increase the 'Internal Memory' of Karbonn Titanium S10 phone. This phone has Android Kitkat and sadly the vold.fstab is not available in /system/etc/. I tried partitioning it with Mini Partition Tool and Link2SD was unable to create mount point (probably as vold.fstab is not available?).

I wanted to understand if the method which you've specified here is suitable for Karbonn Titanium S10 phone ?
