I've moved alot of apps to my sdcard with app2sd due to not enough space om phone.
When apps get updates and I try to update them I get almost every time unsucsesfulle update and the apps change status from installed to freeleech om marked though it is still installed om the phone.
My phone is Desire with Froyo and all the latest fw updates.

But then I need to root? Why should I when I'm supposed to to do it "out of the box" with Android 2.2?

You can only install apps to the SD card that the developers allow you to. You can check each app manually in the 'Manage Applications' screen or just let Android do it for you when it needs more space.
Dont listen to them they know nothing
You need Android SDK installed at your PC , then install lastest (2.2) version of adb, and also usb drivers (if you dont have), then connect phone in debugging mode, open cmd , in cmd go to "tools" folder where you installed SDK and write command "adb shell pm setinstallLocation 2" (without "")
after this every app will be installed on SD card and also you will be able to transfer apps you have now
And this works for official HTC ROM that was released this weekend - without root?
I don't wanna mess with my guarantee etc..
Don't understand why this isn't set by default, or not available to change this in the settings on the phone?

yes it does, and no it does not require root
now i realize that my "guide" is too complicated, there is better guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7460033
there is some guy talking something about losing waranty.. so be careful
Is there a way of batch-installing apk files that I have on my SD from on the phone itself using an app/tool e.g. Titanium Backup, MyBackup Pro etc? I've read through TiBackup's support but it seems to batch-install only apps that you'd have saved prior. I however have downloaded news apps that I haven't installed before and there're so many of them I don't want to install individually...

Sorry... I have tryed with official froyo without root but with bootloader 0.92 the adb isn't working.
This procedure only works with the froyo when the bootloader is on the 0.8x or later version.
Okay, thanx
So now we have to wait for apps like Spotify, XDA etc to update their software - so we can move apps to SD?
Hope that they will do it quick.
Is there any apps in market that has this option available? Just want to test it

I flashed the lastest cm7 rom
And use the dt app2sd
At the beginning, i was able to restore all apps by titanium
However, when i try to download and install apps from market,
My phone rebooted itself, but it was not a complete reboot,
It rebooted from the opening of my theme i have installed.
Then i tried to install apps from sd card through file manager,
But failed again,when i pressed "install" , it rebooted in the way as said above.
Then i rebooted my phone by myself, it rebooted in a normal way.
but i found that all the apps in sd card were gone.
What's happening?
My sd card is "JT 8 gb' (i bought it in hongkong) ,
It didn't tell me which class is it,
When i use card reader to put things into the card,
it is about 3~4mb/s
Is the above apps installation problem related to my sd card?
I think that you will obliged to do a full wipe and then install Cm7 a second time. If you have still this problem, change your memory card if you have another

i have already do a full wipe before flashing the rom.
And i have been flashing the rom many time and the problem still exist.
Is thiis really the sd card problem or apps problem
You can download a second time the google apps from Cyanogen website. There is maybe a problem with your market.. (I know that Market don't work in the past with some custom roms but I don't remember witch one.. )

but the problem is after i have failed to install apps from market,
i tried to install apps from my sd card but still fail.
You can perhaps use another rom like Leedroid 2.4.1 and try if market and install apps work

Ive recently installed the rom InsertCoin (1.0.8 i believe it was).
I enabled Market Access that came with it and set it to force market apps to be installed on the SD-card.
I continued installing a few apps and placed them on the desktop window. But now the images of those apps disappeared from the desktop.
Could market access be the problem?
Also 1 widget disappeared from the widgetlist.
Any ideas how I can fix this?
Widget apps must be on internal storage to work. Move those apps back to internal and they should work again. I'm not sure about the icons though sorry.
Sent from my CM7.1 Desire using XDA Premium App
Your solution fixed the widget and the images are also back after a reboot.
What would you suggest me to do? Always install on the sd-card first and then move the app or install on the internal memory first?
However my market access app is locked now. I cant change it anymore :S
What ROM are you using? I am on CyanogenMod 7.1 so I use the simple2ext app to force apps to SD ext. If you're on stock ROM I suggest saving to SD and then just move the ones you need to internal.
PS. if I helped you please press the thanks button

Ive pressed thanks enjoy.
Anyway I got InsertCoin using HBOOT cm7r2.
I cant force apps to do that i think (only with market access)?
I'm not sure how InsertCoin works but there's a lot of a2sd+ zips out there I'm sure there's one that should work with it.
What is market access?

I can move any app I like to the SD card using manage applications. My question is what's the point of Link2SD in these circumstances, does it offer better performance than just moving some apps to the existing SD card?
Thanks
Yes, it automatically mounts a ext partition from Your SD card and installs apps there, there's no need to move them after a install.
Link2SD is a much better method than Apps2SD.
Much more data of app installation is moved (dex, lib, apk, data). Not just apk files like App2SD.
Because they are 'linked' you can use USB storage mode without losing functionality of any apps.
It uses it's own SD partition, so doesn't hog up the memory card when you don't want it to.
Saves you loads more internal memory.
Ok thanks guys, I'll give it a go when my new memory card arrives.
Definitley, an excellent tutorial on using Link2SD can be found here

Nope, you don't need S-OFF. Mine is S-ON and it works just fine. You just need to unlock the bootloader and then root.
Hi,, recently after the 4.2.2 jelly bean update, I don't have the ability to move apps from the default phone memory to Sd. I have downloaded lot of apps to move apps to Sd but none is working.. There's no choice to move the selected app. The phone is unrooted and I don't want to make it rootable
