how to Increase internal storage on this phone?

Root your device. Delete all pre installed apps using root uninstaller. Will free many memory units.
Then Use app2sd to free more
Plz press thanks.

I guess that those are not what he wants.
The gio has got no internal SD card. He wants to make his /data partition bigger. Your apps will not work for that!
They are for the internal SD card.
There is a difference between /data and the internal SD card.

Don't worry.
We have got really old phones. If you do not know them, it is not that bad. Just know your phone.
Yeah, I guess that Link2SD is better because you need a particular firmware for your solution.

Hi, I'm Rob from the Netherlands, how are you guys doing ?
After getting a Samsung Galaxy Gio for my B-day (Jan 9th), I've been sucking up a lot of information in the Gio section, before registering.
Today I thought I'd sign up and join the fun ! I have a lot to learn about flashing and stuff, but hopefully I'll catch on quick, and will be able to help out other members too.
I usually spent my time in a big Wii hacking community, but there hasn't been much new stuff in the last few months, so I'd like to learn more about Gio hacking
I already managed to root my phone, flash my stock rom 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 via Odin, install Flash Player support through CWM, and most importantly sim-unlock my phone with the help of this very nice forum !
I think I will have a lot of fun here.
Full phone memory
Hi,
I am beginner forum. I just bought a Galaxy Gio and after I installed some applications, the phone is already full. I would like to ask if I root phone can install applications directly on the memory card? Phone will work better after root? I mean that sometimes moves very slowly, has lagged. I want then I put a 4 GB card. Do you think it's ok?
Thank you!

Rooting alone won't make your phone magically faster, it will merely grant you root privileged access. However, with root you will be able to uninstall some of the proprietary software you might not use and you will be able to use App2SD to install all your apps on your SD card.

You can try Link2SD from the Market, as long as you have root it will even work on the Gio stock ROM. It does two important things:
-Manages the native App 2 sd feature build into the Android OS
-Enables you to "Link" (move) apps to a second partition on your SD card. (keep in mind that if you are on a stock ROM, then it will only support a second partition formatted as FAT16/32 (NOT EXT2/3/4))

My experience and advice of read ahead speeds is leave it be, stock android is 128 so 1024 which is what cm7 gives is by far enough. Increasing too high can and will most likely lead to sd card errors!! Thats all im gonna say as ive said it before. Regards with sugar lol, slym.

In your situation the best thing to do is to download droidsail, search app2sd in the store and scroll down until you see a picture of a phone and an sd card, download and move apps
Is this the one you're looking for? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1541243

[Q] App2SD Kernel for stock note 2

Does any developer know of a way to substitute the stock kernel in a note 2 with one that allows the app2sd init,d script.
my note 2 is rooted and has CWM but other than that no other changes. i am a very heavy user of apps due to the field that i work in, and 16gb internal mem is not good enough, i have a 64gb class 10 sd card fully working, but very underused.
as per the below threads

[Q] Partitioning WFS 2012

hello all yesterday i installed a custom jellyking CM 10 ROM for the very first time in WFS 2012 Thank you XDA developers..:good:keep up the awesome work.
the main reason to install custom ROM was to increase my internal memory. i was wondering how can i do that now, i read different tutorials and i am kind of confused now, using INT2EXT+ or there was another tutorial using Link2Sd can anyone please guide me regarding that, and also should i partition SD card in CWM recovery or by mini tool partition wizard. i am having 2GB of card what size shall be suitable. Thank You
You can partition SD card by using CWM and choose the size which you think is sutable for you(512 MB should be good for you)..After Partitioning SD card install ROM,int2ext+ and then GAPPS..

with int2ext+ you can actually use up to 950MB
It's 750 MB because 100 MB for every 500 MB data..But as I said it's his choice

right, sorry. I just got confused, because I was lazy and used 1GB and my phone now shows 950MB.
okay thank you, i successfully did that but i was wondering if there is a stable ROM for WFS 2012 Ed. currently using this Jelly King 2.0 based on CM10 by kantry123b, but its having some bugs like video quality is annoying besides MX player isn't compatible with it as its not playing any videos, and these hardware buttons at the bottom of screen won't light up.
Sorry...Buy a bigger sdcard

or if you don't want to buy an sdcard with a bigger size then you won't have any size on your sdcard,and use the int2ext cuz link2sd is not recommended
