I wanted to convert my sd card to internal storage and thought this wound be easier than ADB. Wrong. This app went do that on it's own, u have to download something else, backup something, flash something. U only find this out when u try to adopt storage with this app. After you've done all that, with vague instructions, you use the app again and it says no sdcard! garbage! I converted the storage in 10 minutes using ADB, including researching how to do it. For adopting storage this is useless

I downloaded this app together with magisk for adoptable storage on my Samsung J5 2016. It doesn't work. it continually asks me to download and install asplugin. Even when this has been done, it still keeps asking me. I've tried using it with a freshly reformatted sd card and freshly rebooted phone, but no good.

Root Essentials was unable to remove an app (Digital Wellbeing) from my phone ( rooted with TWRP, Android 10 based custom ROM and with Magisk). I'm disappointed!

I'm rooted and on custom rom, on Galaxy S7 edge, Custom ROM is BlackDiamond one UI, I've bought new Sd Card 64GB, but when I try adoptable storage it gives me error, No SD Card, Please insert an SD card. Where as card is already showing in my File Manager. Please help

Won't work on my Samsung galaxy s5. Followed all the instructions, including the manual fix in the help section: 'I have root but it's still not working'. I just get an error message. When I use the adopt sd card function it lists the disk as 179,64. In terminal, if I type <179.64> I get an error: can't open 179,64 no such directory exists. If I type 179,64 I get error: 18 volume partition 178,64 failed with '500 18 unknown disk'. Please help me with this. I paid for the premium app.

Love it! So many options you generally wouldn't find in one app. Gained my attention when it in fact granted me R/W permissions on a device (Ive since got rid of), that oddly nothing else I used would truly work to grant these permissions. Had similar experiences with this grating this and that or modifying the system that Root Toolbox Pro couldnt grant/modify as well. 5 stars for this and all the hours of awesome work put into this app!!
