[Q] App2SD noob question - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm looking for a gingerbread rom that supports installing apps to a partitioned SD card. Does anyone know where i could find such a thing or is this confined to the kernel? My goal is to move as much a possible to my class 10 SD card and still have the programs work while mounted as a USB drive in windows.
Thanks in advance.

All froyo and plus roms support app 2sd

Maybe I'm not understanding something then. Am I correct in thinking that any gingerbread rom will install apps to a partitioned as card by default? Im not talking about the way app settings does and they are unuseable if you have mass storage enabled while connected over USB.
I'm running the EH17 leak if that helps.

No roms do it by default
You have to do it yourself

[Q] Make external SD primary saving point

Curious if this is could already be an available mod. i just dont see the reason to have the phones "internal sd" the primary saving point on our devices when we have external card up to 64gigs. i thought it was just the LG G2x. Any insight is greatly appreciated.
I don't think if there is a way on stock to get things to store to the external storage by default but the cyanogen from I ran for a while did.

not currently possible (at least not stock, im not sure if a custom rom will allow it). google and samsung keep pointing fingers at each other as to who's fault it is, but ive heard reports of other devices with ICS having the function, so its probably samsungs fault...
Definitely Samsung's fault, spoke with a technician from Samsung....

So what is everyone using to move apps to external sd? This is driving me crazy if not pissed.. never had internal storage problems on my g2 with minimal storage... can't believe Samsung is selling these phones with no choice to put apps on your external sd card.

You basically have to start to delete stuff you don't need. Go to system settings and storage and start from there. You can actually move apps to the sd card. There's a hack in the development section posted by zedomax. I haven't tried it but you can check it out. Make sure you carefully read the instructions.

[Q] Apps to sd on the T-mo S3, possible?

My space is slowly disappearing and I would like to move my apps to my ext. sd card. I'm rooted currently running the awesome 1.40 Paranoid Kang rom and have a 16 gb sd card. I've searched but haven't been successful in finding anything. Is this possible to do and if so could someone get me headed in the right direction? Thanks in advance for any help.
Try downloading ROM toolbox I think you can do it with the app

Thanks. I just got the app but am unclear on how to do it. Do you know how? Thanks.

Sorry rom toolbox will only work if you install new apps scroll down and you should see app to SD and hit external and all new apps should install there.
try titanium backup hit the check mark at the top right and scroll down you should see move apps to SD card

Does rom tool box allow game data to transfer as well? If not and you're a heavy gamer, you can use Directory Bind to have game data to your external while binding it to the game in the internal. I'm saving well over 10gb off my internal by doing this.

SGSII Kies Update: What's up with my app data/SD card?

I'm not sure what's the matter, but for some reason I can't move apps to my SD card and I can't seem to use my GBA emulator app to grab a GBA ROM on my SD card because it can't find the file.
This is regardless of the fact that I can use the file management app that came with the updated firmware and see the file there. The same ROM on my old OG EVO works fine with the same app so it isn't the app or ROM itself.
I believe I've seen complaints about similar storage problems from others on these forums. Does anyone know what's going on here/has knowledge of how to fix it? Thanks! This update is too awesome to be ruined by something like this

Sorry to say, but try the Epic Touch forum, because this is for the Epic 4G with the slide out keyboard.

That certainly helped me find the solution, I keep forgetting this is technically the E4GT. Thanks!
