Move to SD card option for Apps on other model, is it available? - LG G5 Questions & Answers

I have the Verizon US version and its not available..
Im really annoyed..
They already took out the option for adoptable storage but not allowing to move the apps data to SD is just ridiculous..

I am on the Tmo version and have the same and it kinda sucks, for apps like uTorrent I want everything including the app to be on the SD card.

It's called Adoptable Storage now. You get the option when you first insert your SD card or when you format it

So I just transferred my card over from my G3 and it did not set as adoptable storage. If I format the card, that option will become available? I think I would prefer this over two storage locations. Thanks.

As I said on my message.. I am aware of adaptoble storage option on Android 6.0 but LG just like Samsung took this option out of their phones.. But what's better about the S7 now is they still allowed you to do move to SD option to free up some internal storage..
Thanks

I've tried his method of partitioning the card over adb using sm a few times not but to no success.
It always ends in an error and then a corrupt SD card that requires formatting via a computer to get working again.
The main error I get is:
Code:
Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: java.util.concurrent.TimeoutException: Thread Binder_6 gave up waiting for partitionPrivate after 180000ms
But have also had the following:
Code:
Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: command '43 volume partition disk:179,64 private' failed with 'null'
Anyone else managed to get this working?

I also got this error several times when I tried to set it up. But after trying like 4 or so times to get the command to run without error and getting the same thing every time, I kinda just gave up. Afterward, when I looked around the settings for the device storage, I saw that my SD card oddly appeared to be showing fully as internal storage. I tested moving a few apps back and forth from my SD card to the true internal storage and it worked totally fine (I can't post links, so if you check out fq9iBFn.png on Imgur, you can see the screenshot of my storage settings page).
The only things I think I might've done differently is that I completely wiped the filesystem off of the SD card after the first time it failed. I figured starting with no partitions and an empty card was the best way to go about it. I also tried at one point using the command "sm set-force-adoptable true" before runninng the command to partition the card. I read to do that in a guide I saw for enabling adoptable storage on the G4. If you do that, make sure to run "sm set-force-adoptable false" afterward, I'm not sure what that might do if you leave it as true, but the guides I've read have indicated to set it to false after partitioning.
So, based purely on how it happened to me, I'd try those two things and even if you still get an error back, check your device after rebooting and make sure whether it was/wasn't set up right.
Turns out none of that stuff mattered. The timeout error may pop up, but the SD card is still being formatted/configured in the background despite that. As long as you keep waiting until the SD card reappears under your Storage & USB settings page after running the command, your SD card will be set up for adoptable storage.

Tmo has disabled the adoptable storage option in. I'm guessing, since it is written into the os now,that once we root and custom roms we can get it back.

I had this error with a SD card (class 10 Integral 128 GB) but not problem whatsoever with a Samsung evo class 10 64 GB on my G4. I guess it is SD card dependant. Be sure you're using a original class 10 from a renowned manufacture (Samsung, SanDisk, etc...).

Computer(s) cannot open my sdcard?

Bare with me here. It seems as though my computer(s) cannot open my sdcard when mounted. debugging is enabled and it is on mass storage. Also, i can access the internal phone storage.
Basically when you double-click the SD, nothing happens.
Ideas?
is it mounted?

This happened to me on windows 7x64 home premium, only on the owner account. When I logged in as another user I could access the sd. No clue why
Edit: mine was slightly different, told me to insert a disk when I clicked it
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
it is mounted. Also, on my windows PC it does say that. However i use Ubuntu on my laptop and it just will not open.
I should also say that it was working before i flashed Eclipse 0.6.
And also i cannot access my music on the phone
It does however tell me how much space is left on the sdcard and the total space
Also the Internal storage total and available space is unavailable
When i unmount the sd card and plug it in my computer, i cant view the internal phone storage either...Then if i mount the sdcard, the internal storage becomes available to be opened.
So, i took my sdcard out and rebooted my phone. it displays how much storage is available in the "sd card" ...theres no sd card in my phone. My phone is officially on crack
-Also when the phone boots it does not prepare the internal storage
-When i go to File Manager, under the sdcard thing it sais "This folder is empty"
ill keep updating as i try more things
a different micro-sd card does work in the phone.
How do i know if my micro-sd is broken?
Actually my phone is confusing the sd card and internal storage.
I put in a 2gb card and it sais "internal storage total space 1.80gb" and then sd card has like 4.80gb or something. Why? :'(

[Q] SD Card very weird behavior - unable to format or delete

I have an extremely weird SD Card behavior with my Note 2:
After deleting files and rebooting, the files reappear.
I can't format the SD Card using the Android OS - it goes black screen and requires me to pull out the battery in order to start the device.
I removed the SD Card and attached it to my laptop's SD Card slot and tried formatting using Windows 7- the format process completed after ~30-40 minutes, yet the SD Card appeared UNCHANGED!
I used multiple SD Card formatting tools, still no dice - they either complain about write protection, that they can't start, they start and stop halfway with an error, you name it.
It's like the SD Card has built in protection that keeps the files in it in stasis form, never ever witnessed such a behavior in any storage device. What gives?
Any help, preferably from people who may have encountered a similar behavior, will be greatly appreciated!
Bump.
Experienced this in my old motus.
Would love to see advice, just in case

I doubt the SD Card is corrupted, as I can read the files on it just fine, each and every file.
A VBS virus that prevents me from even formatting the card? Never heard of such a thing.
Has my SD Card became sentient? Are the machines preparing their assault on mankind?

Its not the problem of virus!
And you say visual basic script is used to create a virus?? Hell, No!!
Maybe it is the permissions in the sd card is not allowing it to format!
If your device is rooted and check whether it has ClockWorkMod recovery support.
You can use any other recovery. But ClockWorkMod is more stable.
Go to android recovery and flash that CWM.
And then go to mounts and storage > select format /sdcard.
Check if the format completes. If it gets complete, reboot your phone and again format in the settings.
If it doesn't help, after doing all these steps, now try again with some softwares on your computer and then try again.
Press thanks if I have helped you.

Thats why I mention it on every post.
My SDcard just got worse.
Now it doesn't have a filesystem. Android reports it as blank, and Windows wants to format it because it has the RAW filesystem.
What's more, total space decreased to 30MB!
It's hard to lose all my multimedia files

OK, I have a backup image from CWM and Titanium Backup + Perseus CPU Governor, so I initially thought that they might cause this behavior, but it doesn't explain why formatting via Windows 7 seperately from my Note 2 didn't work.
I'm on stock 4.1.2, rooted, of course.

The android will surely report is as blank because you have formatted everything in ClockWorkMod.
Now all you have to do is go to settings > SD card and phone storage > Fomat SD card.
If it shows an error that "SD card is busy", then unmount it and then format it

You should have had a backup of everything present in the sd card to your computer.
I thought you had done it before. Even if you have formatted everything using a software in your computer, you would have deleted all your data.

I haven't formatted it lol.
I will describe:
- card suddenly unmounts itself
- Android remounts it and reports it as blank or having an unsupported filesystem
- went to Windows for confirmation, turned out that SDcard turned to RAW filesystem from FAT32
Basically I have a dead card.

[Q] Ext SD Card Issues

Wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing the same issue I am.
Was using my phone and my Samsung 64GB class 10 Micro Sdcard "ejected" although it was still in the phone. It had been working fine for a week. I manually ejected and placed it back in but it will not read. I get the "Scanning/Preparing SD card" Message but it always says unavailable. Thinking that my card crapped out on my, I put a brand new Kingston class 10 64 GB sd card but experiencing the same results. Oddly enough, I have an old Class 10 Transcend 8GB card that will read. I am running the stock OS-Unlocked Boot/Rooted/S-off. Only mods I have done are flashing the released HTC kernel that is R/W. (Dont know if I need to reflash the one that came with the phone), and flashed the SD card write fix posted in this thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700310
Anyone know where I can get the stock ATT kernel that may have the correct drivers for ext sd? Any suggestions?

Hey, thanks for the reply.
I have a SD card reader on my laptop and it recognized the card just fine but if I put the card in the phone and plug in the phone to computer via USB, it will NOT recognize/see the card.
Im pretty sure it is a software issue. Does anyone have access or a link to the stock ATT kernel/boot.img?? I'd like to troubleshoot but forgot to make a back up before I flashed the R/W kernel released here. Thanks.
Doesnt matter if the sdcard reader sees it fine in windows, your more than likely going from windows to android, try what I suggested. If the card is not formatted @fat32 it will not be read in phone...

Went to try and reformat them again and am getting some weird results.
If i plug them directly into the computer with an adapter and use SDFormat to format them, then the M8 will read the cards? However, it only reads half the amount of memory (30gb) and I do not have an option within SDFormat to change the size. Since M8 now reads the card, I went to format it within the storage settings and once that completes, it no longer recognizes the card...?? Not sure how that is possible unless the phone is reformatting the card to a format it does not recognize..?
Use sdcard reader on laptop format fat32,set it to default size...it varies on different cards, 4 kb 8kb 16kb etc...

Thanks for the continued assistance. I have done this but still only have Half of the advertised memory. When I first installed it out of the box, it worked and showed full memory (62gb). Also, the default windows formatting tool will render the card unreadable by the M8 so im using the program called SDFormatter. Seems like I'm running in circles so I guess I'll just deal with half the memory for now. At least it works.

Use above instructions to remove all partitions from sd card. Insert into phone it will prompt you about it being damaged and ask if you want to format it. Answer yes.
If you still continue to have issues, it is most likely a hardware issue.

Thank you guys for the help!
I tried using the above fix (disk part) but it didnt even recognize the device. L0ng story short. I was able to use BOOTICE to reformat my KINGSTON Sd card to 60 GB but my samsung only reads 30 (even though it is advertised as 64) I read that when you reformat some Samsung cards, there is a protected area that most generic formatting utilities can overwrite and render the card to half capacity. Not sure if that's the case but oh well. Got it the other card to work. Thanks so much guys! Now if I can figure out why the phone isn't turning on now.....

boat browser is not a privileged app. It will not write everywhere on the sdcard with default kitkat privileges. you can change them manually or since you are rooted use an app like sdfix or an xposed module to do the change for you.

I have the same problem with the internal card. i can't download anything off of playstore anymore because it says insufficient memory. I am going to have to flash the stock b06 thing and start over. blows. Oh and there is like 12 gig available on the internal card and I dont see any other way around it. Maybe after refreshing I will be able to implement the newest root method and that will clear it up. Also I DON'T have a problem saving random objects to the samsung evo 64gb (omg you have to get one) because I did the kitkat fix and it worked fine.

I have a concern regarding this adoptable storage. Every app that I go in and gives me the option to choose a location to store data (Spotify as exemple) shows internal storage with 13GB free, not 16some GB... If I remember correctly, adoptable storage means that the phone would treat the partition of the SD card as internal memory... And use it all as 1

Great question... I would like to know this as well.

If you migrate data to the adopted storage, it becomes unaccessible. Any apps you move to the adopted storage become inaccessible as well. But you shouldn't have any issues still using any apps still on the actual internal.

Are there any stability issues? I remember Apps2SD back in the WinMo days and it caused some issues with rebooting, random data loss, ghost apps, etc.
Does this degrade performance at all?
Do you have to select what gets stored where? Or does the system manage the "internal" external SD the same?

I have successfully used the tool and now my SD card is formated as adoptable storage.
I am unable to migrate the data to the SD card.. I process starts, gives me a message that it will move 6GB from the internal to the SD and will make my SD card default for future apps. After several minutes it fails with an error message that data were left at the original location.
Did anyone manage to perform the migration?
try apps2sd pro to migrate apps , i am using it on my xperia z3 sucessfully with adoptable storage 128gb card memory card under 5.1.1 (rooted)

Try AdClear no need to root/unlock.
The current way to block ad without root is a VPN running on the phone and blocking sites through the VPN.
It works.

Adguard works very well. No root
Does anyone know if adoptable storage (via adb commands) is supported on LG G6 after upgrade to Oreo?

Great! But, why not use a 128gb card? Since you're stuck with it now.

I haven't done it on this phone because I don't need it ( we've got enough storage for apps, imo ), but I've done it on a J5 2015 and it automatically installs apps on the SD card. Haven't seen any stability issues, but it can degrade the performance because it depends on the speed of the card. If you've got a slower card than your phone's storage, then you will see some performance drop for sure.
