Recently bought a Micromax Canvas HD A116, but really hate it because it can't have many games at a time because of only 0.91 GB internal memory. If yes, then this guide is for you, it will teach you how to Get More Internal Memory in Canvas HD, and swap Internal and External Storage easily.

I have a Sandisk mini SD card which is 8GB (7.78 ).
When Installed Custom Rom . I tried something with CMW and formatted and partitioned it. It showing now is 6.4Gb space and 1.38GB space is missing.
I checked with DiskManagement. it showed the rest 1.38 GB space. I tried to Unmount that and now its showing 2 drive in 1 SD card.
There is no option to change that to 1 ( 8GB ) Drive.
Need Help.
Thank you,
Ravi Nazre
Edit:
Now it does not show the unmounted Space in the Diskmanagement. I am Amazed! but most important here is how to get it back to normal.

Hi beston94,
Thanks for your Help.
I tried the Panasonic SD formater. That shows 6.41 GB. I tried FULL WRITE Erase. Still the same. Now it does not show in Disk Management that there is an unallocated space. I have attached the screenshot.

You obviously re-partitioned the SD card to have 6.4 gb and 1.38 gb partitions. You will have to re-partition the SD card again. Formatting alone won't re-partition the card. It will just wipe what is on the main partition, which looks like the 6.4 portion.
Yeah!
So How do i re-partition the SD card again ?
What are the steps involved without using a 3rd party software ? ( If there is.. )
or Please let me know the name of the software which does that.

You can't do it the same way you did the first time?
I was trying to port a ROM to my phone, but I can't get the SD card to mount properly.
It DOES mount but in a weird way.
The SD card shows up in Settings>Storage but it is divided up between internal storage and SD card.

The 32gb sd card is showing up as internal storage while the files on it are coming up under SD card. And as you can see, there is no option to unmount or format it but a greyed out option to mount it.
And if I take it out and put it back in, it doesn't mount even in this way until I restart the phone.
Apps like ROM Manager/Camera say that the SD Card is not mounted while apps like gallery and apollo can read my images and music off of it.
Could somebody please tell me what could be wrong and how could I possibly fix it.
Bump.
Please someone give some clue. I am also experiencing simillar problem while porting for my phone

Me too!
Except I can't even access the settings>storage because it FCs.
And when I plug in the phone to my computer, it doesn't give me connection options. It just charges.
Any help?
What worked for me was to put the 'storage_list.xml' file from the old framework-res.apk (BASE) to the new framework-res.apk (PORT).
What worked for me was leaving the ports vold.fstab there

sadly none of it works for me

Problem with Storage
Do you have now the permanent fix with this problem?
i tried both the storage_list_xml and leaving the vold their.
but none works for me, I can't still change the default write disk to internal storage, and the size of the internal is not correct.
4gb is the built in memory but it says 16gb when porting roms.
thank you in advanced.

Hi,
I'm facing the same issue with almost similar details for storage as posted by OP. Now i don't know for OP, but these details are there in my canvas HD for Phone Storage. Hence, my question is, Will following your steps for formatting external memory fix this issue?
Do you have xposed 2.6.1 installed.?

Hi i've been using a rooted Galaxy S II for a while now, I had the old jellybean 'Ressurection Remix' rom.
Once I did full-wipe on CWM and installed the new 4.4.2 RR rom, my internal storage dropped from 16GB to 2GB...
I've tried multiple things like wiping dalvik cache to solve this problem but I couldn't come up with a proper conclusion.
I think it's partition related problem, but I'm not entirely sure how to solve this problem.
I have a 16 GB internal storage and a 16 GB external SD-Card
*edit: I also have deleted everything unnecessary on the internal storage, there are no junk apps/files.

Your internal storage probably didn't drop. 1 internal storage is 2GB and if you scroll down there is another internal storage (11,5GB)
First take a look in /data/logs, delete the logs (they can take up a lot of space)
That is your phone internal storage for apps.
There is USB-storage (internal storagle like sd) and SD-storage.
it is stated that S2 have 16GB but in reality, its just 11-13GB as the rest space for system file (duh, similar to pc or thumb drive; 4GB on package, available only 3.8GB something for its system file)
for the internal storage to drop 16GB to 2GB, its not...the 2GB space is specifically for your apps, and judging from your image, you have too many apps/apps with big size...
and this:

Check if you have any big backup files on your sd card. I once lost lots of sd mem after romnuke, turned out to be some backup files from the wipe. It was lost dir or maybe mybackups. Check if you have any oversized folders on your internal.
