Did u try out this mod from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...OD]App2ExtSD2 [Works for all U.S. Galaxy S3!]

Try Link2SD, it'll allow apps to be moved to ext4 partion on the external SdCard. It has been reported to work well with the SG3.

I thought you couldn't at all. Can anyone esle confirm this?
Use link2sd.
With root you can probably also use Directory Bind to store game data into sd. I use it on my s3 and note 2. It's not in the app store but it's here in xda. Just Google it.

Here is my thing no one has said they have done it. I keep hearing probably with root!
I just need someone to confirm this, I don't want the gs4 if I can't install appa to a SD card.
DirectoryBind was great on the S3, but doesn't work on the S4. I installed FolderMount (pro) and it works beautifully.
Anyone try link2sd?

When you kick it off it wants to "replace a faulty module", did it ask you that when you first used it?

Thanks. Atleast there's an alternative. I was afraid when you said Directory Bind didnt work that I would have to return my phone and wait for the 32g version.

I am running cyanogen mod 10.1 and I tend to play alot of big games that requires typically >1gb and i have close to no room left in my internal storage and have like 10 gigs left on my external and I dont have a way to install them onto their. I've already tried all types of apps2sd apps and none have worked. Is their a way to put these games on my external sd?
Unfortunately no.

I just have used the first method. It does work. To make sure I redid it a few minutes ago. Works perfectly. Are you on TW, CM, or AOSP ?

I'd say to use this app: FolderMount.
Great app, frequent updates, and I've used it myself and can confirm it works. Not to mention that I believe the dev made it, among other reasons, to solve this issue with huge games.
I gonna look into this. And the changing the external to internal

I can't believe I have to ask this, but I can't seem to figure it out.
How does one move apps to the SD card on a gs3, running the latest stable CM?
I'm very embarrassed about this.

Apps to SD doesn't work very well on the S3 and I do not really recommend it but this is the only way which has been confirmed to work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30624655
If it works with CM I'm not sure but you can read up on it.

I downloaded and installed the zip, then wiped chaches as usual. It made no noticeable difference on CM. Apps are still in internal storage, default install is still internal storage as well.
Oh well.

Good day I'm planning to get a S4 Mini soon, likely the 3G version, but I don't want to root so I was wondering whether Samsung has added Apps2SD ability to it yet.
When they updated the full S4 Samsung said they were also going to add App2SD ability to the S4 Active and Mini and I was just wondering whether that has happened yet?
On the Samsung App store there is an App2SD-like app which shows support for the S4 Mini so can any of you use that app?
I'd prefer not have to root and use Link2SD....so if this hasn't happened yet then I might have to get at getting an S3 instead, despite that one not being extremely hard to operate one-handed.
When I bought my phone about a month ago apps2sd didn't work. I managed to transfer my apps to the sd with "Folder Mount" but this app requires root.
Hi I'm new to the s4 mini section.
To be perfectly honest, this phones internal memory is large enough for most things.
If you have multiple large games that you wish to keep, the quickest way is an app called gl to sd.

App2SD is supported.
Use an app called AppMgr III (formerly called App2SD)

So you can use it now? On a completely stock phone without root?
Yup I'm currently stock, nothing messed with. You can go to application manager and select Move to SD.
Read my previous post because I just edited it.
Edit: but remember if an app has not been designed with App2SD in mind, then you can't move it.

Thats true, it will copy to the emulated sd card which is in fact your internal storage, thus resulting to fail moving as the app is already there.

App2sd is not yet supported. When i used to boot up AppMgr3 on samsung stock fw update (July/Aug '13 update) i got "Your device is not supported because the sdcard is being emulated" and resulting in not reading the extSdcard instead.
Sent from my GT-I9195 using xda premium
Oh darn. Perhaps the update has only been released in Eradica's region and not in your region yet/or not yet released by your carrier?
I don't know about any new samsung stock updates as i'm not running stock firmware ever since CM alphas. I failed to mention that i use CyanogenMod 10.1.3 firmware, so im not really having space issues.
Also i could always flash my kernel and rom back to original stock if any means necessary due to warranty void.
Sent from my GT-I9195 using xda premium
Well that explains it then because the is a function Samsung is specifically adding back to it's S4 line and perhaps also some S3 models with an update. Android JB which your CM is based on doesn't allow native App2SD anymore.
Ok, I just got my S4 Mini LTE version yesterday and I can confirm that Samsung have in fact released the update because I have the Move to SD card function for most of my downloaded applications on the stock 4.2.2 version.
So ive rooted, loaded jedi elite. (Lovely btw). Of course hes fixed the sd card block thingy. I still cant seem to get my downloads to go to my sd. Fir example...ttorrent has a directory setting to direct the path of the down load. Theres 2 selections. Ext sd and ext sd tagsoft somthin or other. Wich 1 do I direct it to?

I use mattiadj's int2extsd script to swap mounts on roms so that all downloads always go to my external and also all app/game data/obb files are on extsd. Might be something you wanna try out, here's the link to it.

Ill try that out...thanx. anyhow. Im running jedi and his rom includes the sd card fix. Its just they changed the name from sdext to sdext taghusoft.somthin or other. Its confusing cause my down loads go to diffrent places, and it doesnt organize anymore. Ive had the epic 4g touch, note, note2 and note3. The note3 is different I gues when it comes to that. Anyway, thanx dude.
