I have read this thread I still feel so confused with all three different storage on this device. Because I do not really see much storage on USB storage most storage on Device Memory.. So I am not sure what is different between Device Memory and USB Storage. I am familiar with SD Card I tend storage my pictures on SD card.. But What would be storage in USB and Device?
i read all what you wrote...
My problem is that when i got my phone and i installed applications, i had the possibility to move applications from memory device to SD card (which is after all explanation USB internal storage)... After that i put a card in my cell and i tried to see how it works in order to understand the "whole memory precess" . i found out that when you have a card in your cell, the transfer goes to this card...
My problem appeared when i removed this card, so now i have "device memoy" and "usb storage" only. i tried to install an application and move it to sd ( which is now usb storage) , i have the answer: your phone doesn't have SD card. insert SD card!!!!!!!!!
so now i dont know how to solve this problem ( how to move from device to usb storage)!!!
hmmm... the question still prevails...
-- IF YOU DON'T HAVE A EXTERNAL SD CARD, "move to SD" option DOESN'T WORK.. SO HOW TO MOVE FROM DEVICE MEMORY TO INTERNAL USB STORAGE --
:-(
@Russell, slug and everyone else...
New issues im facing..i could have searched for a proper forum thread but thought will share it here only..
1. I have gprs pack activated on my number which is called packet data.. Now when I am using gprs and suppose im chating with a friend on gtalk on any other chat client, I ping my friend and wait for him to ping me back.. While I am waiting, the phone screen gets locked in around 30 seconds or so.. Now as soon as the phone gets locked (whether automatically or u do it by power button), the gprs connection terminates. When you unlock the phone, then it connects again and THEN I receive the ping from my friend which he sent 30 minutes ago.. How to stop this disconnection on phone lock...?
2. I have skype, watsapp installed. So when I try to call a contact it asks for a confirmation whether I want to use dialer, watsapp or skype. there is also a default checkbox at the bottom of the prompt. One fine day I decided to tick the default checkbox and.then clicked on Dialer. So now I dont get that prompt, dialer is used automatically. Butttttt, now due to the smooooth touch of s2 I am making acidental calls to people and there is no confirmation screen nd it dials.straight out... I want that screen back.. When I clicked on thr default checkbox, there came.a.message that I can clear the defaults in settings > applications > manage applications > clear defaults.. But there is no such option in manage applications... Help!
I tried this, but the setting you talk of appears to not be changeable ... the "option to modify the contents of usb storage" appears to be an indication that the app in question needs to be able to access/modify USB storage - some apps have it, some don't. When I click on it for an app which has this displayed on the Market, it merely pops up a dialog box which says "modify/deleted USB storage contents," in other words not a destination for where to install the app but an indication that the app needs that right.If you want to store an application to usb, and you are downloading from the android market, when you click on download, a page appears and gives the option to modify the contents of usb storage. Click on the arrow on the right hand side and click yes. It then downloads to that location. Not sure if you can move applications already on the phone to usb, unless you delete them and reinstall.
