Ehhh I don't think you can. However, did you know that G3 has a memorycard slot that supports up to 128Gb Micro-SD cards?

You can use FolderMount to link folders on the internal sd to one on the external (with the pro version, even the full Android/data and Android/obb folder, without just subfolders and every other).

I had an LG G Pad (got stolen this weekend, GRRR) so I am shopping for my next tablet. my one issue is the 16GB of memory, is it enough, or is apps to SD available on this now? I was running out of space on the g pad even putting what (little) I could on my sd card. Thanks

I have the SM-T325 16gb internal with 64gb microsd card. No issue with sufficiency of internal storage. The OS needed only 3.98gb, my apps totaling 90 used only 2.32 gb and I still have available space of 10.26gb, plus of course the external storage. To top it all, you can move the apps to the external microsd card; it is a built-in capability without requiring the app2sd app.

Thank you very much, great information.
Its a very subjective question. It depends on what you need to put on the tablet storage, and if you can put media, etc. on the removable SD card. If you can put stuff on an SD, just buy a 32 or 64 GB one, and you're good to go.
I personally agree that 16 GB is bit low for devices nowadays. 32 GB would have been great. But the Tab Pro 8.4 (WiFi) was what I wanted, and is only available with 16 GB, far as I can tell. I use it with a 32 GB SD, and its workable.
It has the inherent issue of having 2 external storage. The primary being a partitioned storage in the internal memory which is part of the 16GB of the device. Any app you move to SD would move it to that storage thereby using up the internal 16GB storage of the device. So far I have not found a way to move the app to the real external storage, the removable SD card.
With that being said, installing games that are huge would eat up your 16GB device storage.
Rooted?
If you're rooted, there are many ways to move "apps" (or rather, apps data) to the SD card.
The one I use is FolderMount, available in the play store. It allows to mount a folder from your internal storage to the SD card, so everything happens for the system as if it was internal storage, but the files are saved to the SD card. I do that for my OBB folder (Android / obb) which contains around 20GB of games data currently... And still have 10GB left on my internal storage because of that.

I was trying to avoid root but it seems there's no choice in this case.
One question though before I take the plunge and root, there's another folder under the Android folder called data, should I mount that as well?
Hi, I got 32GB microSD card which is formatted for two partitions each about 14,5GB. I want to use them as internal memory and external memory. Is this possible?
I'm running CM11 by OpenDelta.

Hey bro, you can use foldermount, it really works
Hello! I bought LG G3 a few days ago and i have questions...
SD Card works how internal storage? or works separated?
I Have a 16 gb lg g3 and a 16 gb sd card, but i cant move APPs from internal storage to sdcard, for example the gangstar game obb files, only works when the files stays in internal storage because when i move the files to sdcard the game doesnt start. But also the option to move the game to sd card works! The game stills in internal storage and use too much memory...
I need help
greetings!
It has nothing to do with your G3...... it is the Kitkat thing or the Google thing.....it is how Kitkat designed to be

Wow. I still can't believe they made a 16gb ROM 2gb ram g3. 16gb is just not enough. I got 32gb and its almost full with junk
There are some apps in the app store that will enable write to SD.

Hello,
I have got question about new feature called 'adaptable sd' on android marshmallow.
Info: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...or-accessed-normally-with-no-additional-apps/
How it works on Lg g4? Can you move whole app on sd?
if i'm right you can format your external storage(SD card) to work as internal storage. this is useful when installing a lot of apps and big ones from the store.
i don't think you can move internal apps to SD.
this will be a way for 16GB phone variants(not necessarily for G4) to have more internal storage.
Can you format your sd card to work as internal storage on G4?

For me not, Sony SD, no options to format as internal, only normal format.
Strange, this is standard functionality on android marshmallow.
Is there any way to unlock this functionality?
Sounds like how the app Link2SD works by allowing apps on the External SD card.
This is much better than Link2SD, you have true additional internal storage.

Yeah, I can't see the option to format an SD card to internal storage either. At the moment, Link2SD is the next best thing.

Depends, it will still be slower than real internal storage as MicroSD cards are not as fast as internal memory I think.
Actualy, microSD Class10 cards are enought fast for aplication.

I wonder what's the speed of the internal memory.
The internal memory is pretty fast, not the fastest tough. Where the microSD fails is the random R/W part, I would not use it for any resource hungry apps, I do not like lags

First two pics are the internal memory, last two are the SD.
Anyone knows how to swap internal storage with external SD in CM13 as Foldermount doesn't work nor formatting internal SD with almost all CM13 yet??
I'm on TW 4.4.2 using a swap script so my internal storage is not used at all while my external 32 GB sd is fully used.

Can you please share the script that you used to hide internal and use external for cm13?my device got just 8gb of internal and that's exactly what I need.

My question was about CM13 , however, there is a good xposed module that you can use it's called XInternalSD
I have tried it myself and it's working fine.
any news on this ???
