Device memory full, but internal storage empty

[Howdsen]

Hi guys, i noticed that my phone has memory divided into two parts and those are device memory and internal storage. The problem is that the device memory has only 2 GB and the internal storge has11 GB, but i think that everything i download goes into the DM and now when i want to download something bigger it always cancels somewhere in the half way, and i think thats because it wants to save it in the DM but doesnt have enough free space. Any tips how i can make my mobile download things into theinternal storage or at least to my SD card. Any help would be appreciated

You cannot download somewhere else by default,you can move files from device memory to internal memory.

Hello

I have the same problem. Not possible to move from Telephone to internal or SD (Xperia J)

Thanks

You cannot move to SD,to internal it is possible.Just go to a specific app and tap on it and move to internal.

I am having the same problem but when I tap on an app, it doesn't give me any option to transfer it to the internal storage. When I try to update Facebook or Chrome, it is telling me that "insufficient storage". Very aggrevating!

Could you post a picture from an app installed by you and the options that show up?

Thanks for the replies so can u tell me how to move those files to IM. I personally don't have problems with moving apps because I have the option there, but how do u move files like photos or music

To move photos or music,simply use a file explorer.

So if I understand correctly when i move app to sd card in settings I actually move into IM,not into my external sd card,right

Apps cannot be moved to SD,only media files.
