Genymotion increase internal storage space

I'm running out of internal storage space on my Genymotion emulator.
Strange thing is when looking at properties of this emulator in virtual box I see that it has 16gb external memory.
How can I increase the storage size so that I can install more apps without deleting existing ones.
Shortly, you can increase internal space. But it much more complicated than just resize virtual disk of your VM.
First of all, you increase the size of android_data_disk.vmdk. Here you need copying it several times to convert to vdi format (only vdi size can be changed) and vice versa to get large enough vmdk disk.
After that, you should use another VM to get access to a filesystem on vmdk and resize it. The easiest way is using Ubuntu.
Finally, you can replace android_data_disk.vmdk in your Android VM onto one which you resize.

Move an app to SD Card

I have a problem moving my application to the SD Card , I learnt to enable an app to move to the SD card , i need to take care of two important things
min SDK must be greater than or equal to 10
set android:installLocation="auto" in android manifest , I learnt that doing that android :installLocation="auto" will do the job than setting it to External
My problem is that Whenever i have an app whose size is less than 50 Mb this works fine , But if the size of the app exceeds more than that, I receive an error stating that "Not enough size in SD card" , I checked my SD card and I am sure that it had enough space to accomodate the app ! what could be the problem and suggest me some possible solutions which would help me !

App Inventor cannot connect to phone or emulator

I've created a screen with a lot of pictures (75 pictures), which are not visible. Since I've added the last 50 pictures, the Blocks Editor cannot connect to the phone or emulator anymore. I really need all of the pictures for my app. Is it possible, that 75 pictures in one Screen are too much?
I also can't download the app to my computer at the moment, because the build server is currently busy :-/
How large are your pictures?
Are you aware, that there is a 5 MB limit for App Inventor apps?
There are the following workarounds
1. Hossein's solution
2. Shival Wolf's webprefetch or Taifun's webprefetch file by file

Save android application in sd card

I have a problem all the applications im creating are getting installed in phones internal memory. and my phones memory is low so im flooded by the low space dialogue every time. can someone help please, thanks in advance
In the manifest of your application in the stub where you set the version and version name etc add the following tag android:installLocation="preferExternal".
You can keep it as auto so that the app can be made movable to phone or sd card.

Install large android application directly on SD card

I am developing an application and because of the images is very heavy (around 25Mb).
The problem is that I have not enough space in the phone memory to install it, but of course I have a lot of free space on the SD card.
I tried already with:
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:installLocation="preferExternal"
... >
but it keeps saying me that I don't have enough space on disk and eclipse sends me an error.
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks.
A good workaround is to trim down the APK and download the images upon first run, saving them directly to the sd card. You can provide in the APK low-res images to show while downloading the hi-res ones, if needed.
