Pretty sure that is showing your internal SD storage.

Yep. Thats your internal. Put an SD in there and you get another set of graphs showing the SD storage capacity. And notice it says USB storage instead of SD storage.

Moving apps to SD card

Is there any way to move applications to the real external sd card instead of the internal sd card?

tons of apps for that on the market, apps2sd, TI, etc etc
I'll give ti a try because apps2sd will only move files to the internal SD card, thanks.

Let us know if it actually moves it to the external sd. I assume that's what you want. Because most of them go to sd, but since our phone has the internal as sdcard, it goes there.. And if apps don't break after a reboot.. Because that's why, allgamer or someone else has link2sd so stuff won't break. But I still get apps missing after rebooting using that app

External SD

just swap it by editing vold.stab. there are so many tutor here. and I think you can find it through uncle Google
If you are using CM9, theres a option to swap internal to external.
Yes. Alpha 6. Setting, storage, menu, storage configuration, then select your choice.

Is there a safe way to Formatting internal memory.

I plugged in my phone today to transfer a rom over to my sd card and my internal memory was in red status. 732mb avail out of 11gb. I want to clear alot of it out. Is there a safe way to format all of internal memory?

I've always had luck going into settings/ storage format usb storage Erases all data on usb storage. Be sure to back up anything you may want to keep. Pictures music, contacts

Internal storage is full

How can I take advantage of my 32 GB micro sd card? I have quite some large games taking up all the internal space. But I want to install more.

I already did all of them except moving apps to sd. I'm on darkside ROM, so the internal storage is mounted at /sdcard, while sd card is mounted at /sdcard/external_sd

You can still move your apps to your SD card. Go to apps, app info then click on "move to SD card", then your good! :thumbup:

No. It's not good. Sd is internal storage, if you read my post

Internal is sdcard, external is SD. That is the way that TW roms are.

No dis, but I know what I'm talking about. I'm running a TW ROM. Jedi mind trick to be exact. If the app info says "Move to SD card" Then it's on the phone. If it says "Move to phone" Its on the SD card. Here is example B

External sd card for cm10-14

Hi there all, is there any ROM out there that supports external sd card.. Am using cm10 - 14 ; I like it very much only problem is I can't use my sd card and am already out of storage.. Thanks

Good ? I'm looking that answer as well

I cant speak for any other ROM as i haven't used any other than AOKP but it works fine for me with my 16GB class 10. I would venture to say it also works on most of the ROM's out there...personally speaking, and i think im probably in the majority here, no external SD would be a deal breaker.
EDIT: According to some (very) quick research its possible it may simply be that your SD card is in a format not readable by CM. Try formatting the SD to FAT32 and see if it works.
Oah thanks.. I will try doing it Nd will surely let you guys know

Move what to the sd exaclty? Also what size card do you have, i've seen somewhere there are detection issues with the larger capacity cards.

So, the external is working now? And you are trying to move something to it? Sorry but you are not elaborating much on what is going on.
Yeah... I wanna moved and save the apps in external sd card.... No, the sd card is not working. How do you save your apps in your sd card when you download something from app store Or like if you want moved it to sd card which is already in internal memory

Well there are several option to move apps to sd. Of course this isn't going to work until you figure out why your sd card isn't being recognized. There is a possibility there could be a problem with your external slot...have you tried any other sd cards?
Are you able to able to save your apps on external sd card...

Now that you mention it i can't..although i really wouldn't want to. Every time i've done it in the past it has causes problems. I'm not sure if this is isolated to AOSP based roms or if it's got to do with the way the external sd is accessed.
i just installed cm10 on my galaxy r and was wondering with the same doubt.
while opening randomly the folders in the root, i found that /emmc is the location of external sd card.. :victory:
