SD card you can put music,apps,pics etc.But i see two other storage Phone storage total space 10.48GB available 10.45GB and Internal storage available 1.9GB.Whats the difference between phone and internal storage.
I believe the smaller partition is the system partition. The larger is considered the sd card. Then there's the external sd card which is what you mentioned as being for music etc...

I have an 8 gig SD card in my Atrix. Well, it's filled up already, but I have almost all of my internal storage still available. I looked at the card, and it's mainly filled with apps. How can I transfer them over to the phone's storage, so it will free up the SD card?
On this note there is an sdcard partition which is internal and an external sd card folder which is the optional memory card...i am trying to clean the internal sd because only 200MB is left out of 10GB and the calculations do not make sense in the settings/storage...says i have 20+ gigs used in my internal sd partition which is impossible. Where are these coming from and where can i find these files that are taking up space? ultimately I would like everything in my external SD since it is bigger but for that to happen i need to directory link all the folders ....could anyone help me with clearing this internal sd ? thanks
Hello,
I have a MTK based phone (Star 7189/Alps v89_jbl1a668_fwvga) running 4.2.1 with 1G phone storage, 2G internal SD card and an external 16G SD card.
Even though most of my apps are actually located on the external SD card, I am still down to only 60M free on phone storage. The internal SD on the other hand is practically empty.
Is there no way to mount the internal SD card on /data thus increasing internal phone storage for apps etc?
Thanks for any suggestions!
Hi!
I have installed MIUI on my L9, and 16gb sdcard.
I see very strange thing. When i use memory of my External sdcard and try to download/delete something from here (ex. apk 40mb) my INTERNAL memory gets more free space.
This is normal?
I didnt see divide of types of files on EXTERNAL memory card in options of memory. Only see this with internal card.
Dunno what is this but have problems with installing or downloading somehing items on external card, becouse internal card think i download to internal memory.
sorry for my bad eng.
please help, i cant install bigger programs, even backup from external card is see in memory of internal card.
My phone in internal memory have only 500-600mb storage busy, but phone "think" and show me i have only 700mb from 2.5gb of fre space becouse other files on external memory phone thinking is on internal.
how can fix this??
before have samsung/motorola/htc phones and didnt have this problems...
Hello,
I recently bought a Lenovo A820 and am currently using LambdaROM 2.3.5a. My phone has 4GB of internal space and I have a 8GB microSD card in it as well. My internal storage is running low, but my internal sd card is empty and cannot be used, because I've all things on the external sd. Is there anyway to merge the internal sd card with the internal phone storage? I've searched long and hard already, but found no concrete information. I know I can swap memories and even link my sd card to the phone storage. But my internal storage is 4GB which only 2GB are being used for the phone storage and 2GB are partitioned to the internal sd card. I would like to merge them into the internal phone storage, if possible. My question is: is it possible? If so, how can I do it?
Thank you.

Hi
You cannot merge virtual internal SD and physical external SD into one volume.
However you can probably swap it - which should solve all of your problems.
Your phone has MTK6589 chip, so the process will be similar as on my Snopow: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2777140
After the swap external SD will be visible as internal SD and the other way round. That means you can buy 64GB SD card and have all this space available for installing apps because phone will see this card as internal storage.
