http://androidforums.com – I bought a pay as you go Android phone from Wal-Mart for about $130 and the be completely honest I want to throw the thing into the wall. Not sure if it's the phone itself or the just the operating system. My biggest issue is the fact that when the phone attempts to download new apps or update existing apps it says I have no storage. The phone itself has internal storage of about 200mb and comes with a 2gb Micro SD card. Here lies the problem. Every time I download a application it downloads to the internal memory, there has to be a way to change that, right? Because that is ridiculous. (General)

Hi guys, I recently bought a galaxy ace. Now, I only have 4 or 5 apps on my phone so far and already I am getting a persistent message popping up saying my 'phone storage is getting low' despite the fact I have barely anything on the phone!

Ok I really can't figure this out and my theory is that the droid maxx has it backwards and uses "internal storage" to mean external storage and "move to phone" as internal storage. Can anyone please explain this to me?? I have ApptoSD and, as an example, one of my apps MUST be kept on internal storage.

Hi all, I have been using Android phone for years. Previosly I owned a HTC Sensation XL. I have no problem of moving the apps between internal phone memory & SD storage. This week just purchased a Samsung Galaxy S4.

Hi, I have a rooted Pantech Pocket, ATT as carrier. When the phone was new, I loaded just a few apps, Titanium back up and SD maid, created an update.zip file on the SD card and the empty internal storage was about 300MB. I use the phone for texting, email viewing, a little browsing, and well, as a phone. No gaming, or streaming audio or video. My internal storage is now around 50MB.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Y S5360 Single Sim phone. Its internal memory sucks , just 190 MB. So you can see what I go through while installing new apps. Its the same disgusting feeling which I get with my 160 GB HDD laptop :D.

So I was wondering whether there is any method to install/move apps to my 8 GB SD card?

I've been using my phone for about 5 months but recently I faced a problem with the internal storage of my phone. I have a total space of 1.97GB for my internal storage, apps used up 601MB and it says I only have 216MB available. Adding up the apps and available spaces, I should have about 1GB left. I don't know where it go and I can't update my apps now due to the insufficient space.

Hi. I'm a new android user. Just bought a new android phone running on os 4 ICS.

My problem is, I can't seem to be able to transfer or install apps to my sd card. I only have 2 options whenever I download or install, either they go to phone storage or internal memory, both of which can be found in the phone and not in the sd card.

Can anyone help me?

Hi, I have a weird problem with my S2 running samsung stock ICS 4.0.3. i have been using sgs2 for over a year now and whenever my free internal storage goes below 2.5GB i move the apps to SD card. But now No. of apps in SDcard has hit the Android limit so i simply delete the Apps. But off late that is not freeing up my internal memory.
