i have problem with the internal memory...when i downloaded game such as Fast Five...the game cannot move to SD card...can anybody help me..
Not all apps/games can be moved to SD card.
GTA 3 game itself is not very big IMHO, it will download game data to SD card only.

Hmm, i have set adb setInstallLocation to Value 2, I´m rooted and I´m using Titanium Backup to push some apps, games from internal memory to sd card. With this set up, i can move at least 99% of the apps to sd card. Only a handful of games and apps can´t be moved to card since the option has been locked by devs.
if not rooted...then how...
With TB, everything can be moved
If i root my r800...can this problem solved..
Yep

Hi!
I was looking after this issue since my holidays. My Glide just uninstalls random applications that are on SD card (external_SD) after reboot. The replication is 8 out of 10. I had almost 30 apps on the SD card (mostly games).
What I did:
-restart the launcher
-wipe/factory reset
-change microSD cards
-reformat microSD card
How can I tell apps are uninstalled?
-checked Market
-checked TiBu (Backup/restore > Uninst. filter)
As I said, different apps are uninstalled every reboot. If I again reboot my device, the app(s) previously removed will be installed and another app(s) is removed.
Temporarily, my apps are transferred on my Internal storage (2gb) and so far, no issues. This quite puzzles me for I did not encounter any issues using my microSDs in file transfers, media and etc except for this one.
May you have similar issues and have solutions for them, please share and it will be greatly appreciated.
I posted this in the subforum for this only happened on my Glide (did not see in my Captivate and Infuse with same micrSDs). If you see this as inappropriate, please leave me a message or reply, or simply report my post.
Thanks
Correct me if I am wrong but apps moved to SD actually install to the 4gb USB storage in the unit (/sdcard). Nothing goes to the external SD (/sdcard/external_sd) unless manually moved there. If you want to install a program to the SD you have to use root utilities.
Doesn't help you with your issue but you should be able to completely remove the SD card and see if you continue to have the problem.
I haven't noticed this on my wife Glide but it does happen on my Skyrocket.

No your wrong when you hit the button move to SD Card it actually goes to the MicroSD card. I tried hitting that button without a Microsd card and I get an error it says not External card detected or something like that. When I installed my MicroSD card it moved the apps to it.

You are correct. Good to know. I verified that I have a few apps moved to SD and they do not work when the SD is removed.
However, I can not replicate the OPs original issue. I put the SD back in and the apps are launchable again. All apps remain after reboot. When the SD was swapped was it with a different brand/model. I am using an 8gb Sandisk.
I could not replic

That's weird because I was able to move to SD without inserting a Micro SD card and when I move to SD, it moves them to the internal USB storage instead of the Micro SD card.

Weird how we both have different results here. I have the Rogers running Android version 2.3.5 and Kernel version 2.6.36.3

responses are greatly appreciated....I also tried moving two apps on SDcard after transferring them to the internal (2GB) storage. my glide automatically removed one of them after reboot. Well it's not a concern until i ended up running out of space on my internal
I noticed this as well on some apps I just reinstalled them on the internal and will not transfer them to the SD I again. I guess some programs don't want to be transferred to SD.

I have the exact same phone, I think you are confused. Move to SD never moves to external SD. Why else would apps like 'Apps2SD' exist then?
Apps2Sd allows you to map certain folders that are hard coded to the sd internal. For example game loft games install on the internal applicaton 2 gig partition a small installer and then Download extra content on the internal sd card. Apps2Sd allows you to map the game directory from the internal sd to your micro sd card. Similar in linux with a sym link. The Move to Sd from the Os (gingerbread). Allows you to alleviate some room from your 2 gig applications partition and move apps to the Microsd card.

Could it be that whether it move to internal or external SD depends on the app? None of my apps have been moved to the external microSD yet. Maybe it is because I have extra space on my internal microSD? Also when I go to Manage Apps > On SD Card, it shows the space used and remaining on the internal SD(USB storage).

if you are rooted, look for a folder named .android.secure on your Glide's hard drives. That folder contains apps that are moved to SD card. I see mine on /sdcard/external_sd/.android.secure
Hi, even if this thread is an old one, the same issue happened to my phone:
I can't use the internal memory to move apps because they are uninstalled every time the phone is rebooted. What is the clue?
Sent from my NX505J using Tapatalk
I needed to do factory settings, steps before that i rooted my phone and i was able to put through some applications to SD card (for example FIFA 12, etc.). Obviously when i did the reset, the applications and root has disappeared, my SD card was out of the phone during this project to make sure that it will not be removed. When i turn on the phone and put SD card in the phone, it shows the same amount of free space as before but I dont know how to restore my FIFA and other applications back.
Do i need to do root and installl the same application i was moving data to SD card?
I bought this phone from other guy and FIFA was bought on his gmail account, i did account.db change and backup and signed in with my gmail and everything worked and i tricked the system. Now i am little bit worried to lose programs and i had on my phone.
Thanks for your help
Your saved game states are gone. They are saved in the internal memory not the sd card.

Depends on the game. Older games save their savestates on the SD card. Newer ones save it on the /data partition.
Use Titanium Backup for backing up.
i dont care about saves
MC3 game this is what i was able to save, only 4mb were needed to download.
i am more worried of other applications on my SD
is this something what can help me?

i can see data on my SD card in Androi/data
my phone is rooted, is there any way to visualize the root on the PC?
i have Total Commander on my phone but i am unable through it functions to create new folder and move those data to Data/data as mentioned on the link.
since xperia m has very little internal storage, now i am looking to buy 32gb memory card but little confused about this methods.
is swapping works perfectly? i dont want write scrpt again and again on every reboot
or sd card partitioning is good?
please give me suggestion which one is good.
Maybe just use gl to sd app to move game files to sd card. This method is safe and easy.
I think partitioning the SD card is better.
I m using this and it's perfectly fine.
use link2sd to move apps
and gl2sd or foldet mount to move game data to SD card
Eh I just swapped internal with SD. You do it once and then you don't have to deal with other apps.

Internal memory Card /Sd Card ist full
Hello Guys,
I´m so sorry for my english (because it´s so bad) and for any mistakes I will do in this Forum.
I just have one problem: My internal memory is all in used , it´s full.
Yesterday I flashed my smartphone ( S3 GT I9300) and it felt like I did it about 100times, because of freeze and the wrong kernel etc.
Then I tried to get in a backup again, to save a Game again ( Clash of Clans) but the backup does not work, so I tried another and another and...
Suddenly I realised that my free memory gets smaller and smaller. So I actually have only about 200-300mb free.
But I did not put anything on the device. Quite the contrary. I erase already some backups to have more memory...
So exist there any method to " tidy up" the internal memory card??
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks a lot
I´m so sorry...
best regards Gotschi

actually i recently rooted my xperia m c1904 and want to use my sd card to pla high end game ,i don't have unlock bootloader and running on 4.3 jellybean
I am having HTC M8 with 16GB Internal so 10GB something usable, so the problem is after I add some apps and then a game like GANGSTAR VEGAS which got large obb file of 2GB nearly I find in my internal memory full. I am having external memory of 32GB so is there any perfect way to move large OBB files to External MMC and make them working? I tried with some apps like "GL to SD" it movies files to SD but application wont work
Apart from these I also use Sygic Navigation, as I move globally I have much maps downloaded.
But my problem is just moving of OBB files of Games and get them working. Any Ideas?
[EDIT]
GL to SD(root) really worked! my bad, I opened app in normal way now I figured it out to get it opened from GL to SD
Download FolderMount from google play it does all automatically just chose game them next and it will move files from you after moving please select the pin on the main page to activate the mounted folder on ext sd

Thanks man, now I am using GL to SD if I see any bug in this then I will move on to your method :victory:
Hi guys,
I have searched but cant find anything that matches my questions. I updated to 6.0 the other day and I formatted my SD Card as internal storage. It went ok and stated that 400mb could be moved which I did.
My issues are that I was led to believe once this was all set up any app could be moved to the SD card but thats not the case apps like Facebook cant be moved...is this the same for everyone?
And more importantly when I download a new app it installs to internal as default but then I can choose to move it manually to the Sandisk SD. Surely they should install the SD as default or split at least? at this rate the internal storage will continue to get full and nothing on the SD that's meant to be treated in the same way.
Any advice would be great!
Thank you
Anyone? someone else must be using the SD as internal memory?
me other issue
some apps when i move to SD it will automatic disabled "LIKE COC Instagram facebook, etc"
and
some apps in the SD it display disabled but i can run the apps.
and some are in all apps show on SD card , when i go to SD tab it dont see the apps "LIKE fun Fit"
