Sorry about the clutter, I was trying to use the app and thought I was replying to my own post, but I was wrong.
Thank you for all the good info

I wish I could buy a new phone, but I am unable, which is why I rooted, installed custom roms, etc...
I am looking into re partitioning my mmc with the tools you have mentioned, but I have a LOT more research to do before I take that route.
I did format my SD back to FAT, and it helped a little.
Yes the APPS seem to break occasionally when moved to adaptive storage while the phone is on, but after a reboot or two they will work again (for a while). When the phone reboots it unmounts the SD card and it takes a while to remount it when the phone loads up, causing any shortcuts on the home screen to be lost. Yes they work fine in internal memory.
I am playing around with Link2SD and Apps2SD without much success, but it might be a good option when I learn how to use these APPS.
In conclusion, I have realized that I need to start saving up for a new phone, and Androids Adaptive Storage is really buggy and should be done away with (in my opinion).
