Internal Storage

I was looking at my friend's phone and he has about 6GB of internal storage. Our phones have a measley 179MB. Is there any way to increase this?

Use data2sd

Partition the sdcard with the second partition as an ext3 or 4 file system. Would recommend good no higher then 10% for the second partition as any bigger can damage the sdcard.

What exactly is partitioning?

 

[lokito15]

You do it from from recovery mode under Advance settings. It allows you to use a portion of your sdcard for apps in a similer matter to the internal memory I used data to SD to make my phone actually read it as internal memory, here's a screenshot so you can see what I mean.

Oh. That sounds awesome!
I did some research, do I absolutely have to format my SD card?

 

[lokito15]

It formats when you partition it so that's not optional. I just backed up my SD Card on my PC when I did it.

If you search for firerats custom mtd partition that will add around 100mb if you do it right
