I just watch YouTube how they enable adoptable storage
for Xperia M4 Aqua.
They say have some trick to enable it.
as I know..

1) Must have original Sdcard brand like Sony or SanDisk

2) Use Sdcard with high class / class 10

3) Sdcard with hyper speed

4) Back up your phone and factory reset

5) Format Sdcard with PC

6) Power up your phone and insert Sdcard

7) Select Sdcard as internel storage and format

😎 Plug in your phone to PC and checking your Sdcard
if success your PC will show drive folder (Drive G:/)
something like

9) Your Xperia M4 Aqua have adoptable storage
in android Marshmallow

This is what I saw in YouTube but I'm not sure if my
step is right maybe I skip or forget the others step.
I forget the link video is.

Hey @Shen02!

I'm afraid that I don't have any information regarding plans to implement adoptable storage for M4 Aqua as of now. Please refer to my previous post where I stated why adoptable storage was not an included feature, click here to be taken to it.

so Sony not enable adoptable storage coz impacted software encoding and quality.
But I saw in YouTube many M4 Aqua user they enable adoptable storage.

We love this phone but have internal storage issue and not all regions have 16gb.

There is no official way for you to enable adoptable storage in your Xperia M4 Aqua, nor is it featured with our software release that I am aware of.

It's a same that Sony doesn't let to use sd card for applications on this new Android for M4. I will never buy Sony again. With the money I waste on it I should buy 2 or 3 Chinese phone. At least have more memory.
I ask for Sony at least let delete Sê applications we don't need. It even can't be blocked some like before.

29 apk asking for upgrade. And almost all from Sony and Android. I buy a phone that doesn't have any space for me. Really Sony?
