The tablet is one of those Nextbook things that Walmart was selling last year for $70. I've looked and not found support for it in any of the android apps that let you modify partitions. If I could find something that would, I'd use it to expand the partition used for installing apps. Do android devices have four partitions on the internal storage? Also are android devices limited to the four partition limit on one storage device?

well if you have root, busybox, and adb you can use terminal commands on any partition you want. In addition i think clockwork recovery has some partitioning tools also.

there is also android partition manager looks like you can push images with it. and Diskinfo looks useful for gathering information. I dont really see any one app to rule them all, most of the real work is still done via ADB/Fastboot.

    Thanks, but I tried this once.  It comes with some annoying
    adware.  Also the manual they say is available isn't.  I get an
    error message whenever I try to download it.

    Is the first thing I have found. Looks interesting.

        I have an android tablet and have link2sd installed on it so
        there's room to install what I want on it. This works fine,
        however I have to have the ext3 partition with the same data
        on multiple sd cards I use in the tablet.  I once heard about
        an app that creates an image file on the part of the internal
        sd card the user has access to and mounts that image file
        instead of a partition on the external card.

        Does anyone know of an app that will do this?  I have looked
        for weeks and not found it again.  Also how would I go about
        creating the image file myself and configuring the tablet to
        use it?

        I would like to be able to change sd cards without having to
        shut down the tablet or having to repartition them.

        Thanks to anyone who can help.

        Derek
