Hi So i recently got a LG G2 but unfortunately the 16gb version, and what was worst is that you are only allowed to used 10gb:crying:
So as i love gaming, listening to my favorite music and watching awesome videos, I needed a way to get more space to hold everything..

Eventually I came across an App called FolderMount, unfortunately you need your device to be rooted for this app.
You will also need a OTG microUSB adapter.. Not sure if this will work on all devices:silly:

Here is a step by step guide on playing games off a USB drive:

1. Install FolderMount, get it from play store

2. Install your game( I'm installing Fifa 14)

3. Create an empty folder in storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/com.xxxxx ( blank sd data folder )

4. Copy the game sd data onto a USB drive and plug the USB drive into your Android device using an OTG microUSB adapter

5. Now open FolderMount and in the top right corner tap the "+" icon

6. You may enter the game name to make mounting a game easier.

7. By Source, select the empty folder created in Step 3

8. By Destination, select the game sd data folder on the USB drive

9. Check Screenshot_4 to see:cyclops: how it should look.

10. Now in FolderMount, tap the pin icon and wait untill it turns green

11. Finally enjoy your game:victory:

    It works for every app, right?

    For small apps it should be pointless but for apps that hold more data, it should work.
