APK for SD card? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How do I make Xperia Arc to install apps or games to SD card automatically?
Do I need to install something first to my SD card before I install anything?
Thanks

install this app.its a good one...you can put your apps to sd card

in my opinion Link2SD is better apk for this
it has automatic system that move apk to SDCard as soon as you installed it.

It's good to have a link2sd,app2sd,but having apps installed directly to sd it's a bad...'cause some apps need to be to sd to work.

[Q] Migrating to a new microsd card

Hello all, I have a rooted play running stock firmware 2.3.4.
I want to migrate to a bigger SD card and have done a titanium backup of my apps. However some of my apps I "moved to sd card". So my question is can I copy all my files and folders from the old sd card to my desktop and then to the new sd card? Will the apps on the sd card work just fine? Please advise. Thank you.

Worked for me. I replaced mine that way with no problem. Just make sure you copy everything, and don't wipe the old card until you test out the new one, just in case.

You don't even have to do a titanium backup, all you need to do is copy EVERYTHING, that includes hidden folders, make sure you backup android.secure folder, that's where everything you "Move to SD Card" in settings goes
All that you have to do is copy everything from your old SD card straight to your new one. I did this upgrading from an 8gb micro SD to a 32gb micro SD.

Does not work will not work.
Swap your memory if you are rooted.
JellyBean does not support apps to sd.
In futere wil be possible when rom development is going on.
you can bind your gamedata folder to sd card so additional data is stored on ext sd card.

How do I bind it? Can u guide.
samsungs default is to save apps to the sd card (internal) partition. they share it. i think that's how google has also made it from ICS on out. so there's no point really.
I have app2sd on my ns4g on jellybean so it can't be because of jellybean?

[Q] ex sd card

can anyone tell me a fairly easy way to get my ex sd card to work. i ran out of space on internal. i am a noooob.
What do you mean by "to work" like allowing apps to be installed on it or just as storage?

i have no more internal memory. most of the apps are samsung apps that were on the phone. i inserted a ex sd card but i can't get any apps to download to it. i would like to swap internal for external. to much samsung bloatware
You need to be rooted to do so. Then download Rom toolbox from play store. There is an option to move your apps

If you have root, you can use link2sd. You will need to create a separate fat32 partition on your sdcard first.

Apps to SD card?

Hello all,
Bought 64gb SD card in order to put all my gigantic games on it, but had no luck.
So I factory reset tablet, erased SD, and now I'm ready for your help.
Is it possible to install apps from Google Play on SD card?
Tried to move it from App manager, and now, for instance, Hearthstone is 1.5GB on internal and 44MB on SD.
please help.
Thanks.

You can try using Link 2 SD, that works for some people: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD
If your'e using a KitKat rom you will need a small fix to make moving things to the SD card possible because Google restricted SD card usage in KitKat: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nextapp.sdfix
If that doesn't work here's what I use currently:
KitKat Fix above
KitKat fix xposed module: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/kitkat-sd-card-access-t2790992
And this app which lets you move large Game files to the external sd card (OBB files for games)

Hope I helped :good:
