How to turn the "External" SD card into "Internal" storage - Option A If that is the case, you will not be able to use this information. NOTE: If any of the steps are missing on your phone, or they don't work for you, then you have a phone that either has an older Android version or has been restricted by the manufacturer. And third, you need a phone that has not been restricted by the manufacturer from making this change. Second, you will need the instructions I am including below.

You may also want to change the settings in apps that you use to create new files (like the camera) to save new ones to the card rather than the phone.

Once that is done you should then go into the apps that you access the files through (like gallery, etc.) and change the apps individual settings to look for the files on the SD card. Personally I would suggest leaving a copy on the computer as a back up. Once there, and still connected via USB, you can then move or copy the files over to the SD card. To move them all at once, or in large amounts, you can connect the phone to a computer via USB cord, then move the files over to an empty folder on the computer. Sadly, they usually only let you move one or two at a time.

The first being to just delete or uninstall things from the phone to free up space for new things. You have three options for freeing up "Internal" storage.
