Another Newbie Question here.
So AT&T only provides the 16MB Note 2, so of course we add a nice juicy 64GB SD card. But it seems that the stock phone does not really use it for much (that I can tell) to store anything.
First question: On the stock ROM, what apps can be told to use the SD card as default, and how do you change the app settings?
Second Question, for the future: Assuming one Root's the Note 2, what can be safely moved to the SD and how? Or is another ROM required?
Humbly yours - thanks in advance!

I also have a 64gb card. I put all of my Titanium backups and Nandroids on the external SD (right now TWRP doesn't work with the exfat formatting of my card, so if I want to restore I'll have to move it from ext to int SD).
I also have Spotify set to store any offline music on the external SD. You can do this by installing an old version of Spotify, pointing it to external SD, then updating the app. A quick Google search will find this if it's something you want to do.
It's hard to tell you what to move to the external card without knowing what apps you use. You can get an app called Directory Bind that will point any internal SD location to your external SD. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889550
SD card setup/directory optimization
Really like Android and the Note 2 so far.
Thanks for the directory bind guide link...interesting. Maybe my answer is somewhere in there, so I will take a look either way.
New to external SD use on Android as well (or any phone, that is). I have a 64GB sandisk as well, and It was pre-formatted for Android apparently with some s/w on it. Which is fine, if that is the way I should go.
Just playing around with it at first and copied a music album over, in similar format to my iTunes directory structure -I figured, why not. Perhaps there is a better way to structure my directories though? More general way for all apps to recognize? Moot point?
I assume different apps might require different directory structures...to be efficient, or to be able to work with those dirs/files. I'd rather have the most optimal structure now, before I start messing with creating more directories, etc down the road.
The general questions are, should I format this as something else? What is best to use? (Still looking into different file manager/transfer apps for now, and MAY root and keep stock ROM in the future, but acclimating myself with Android OS has been more than enough for now...I do enough Linux at work, so not in any rush )
Since I went there, I don't know if the OP's question was fully answered...so again, here's a quick (newbie) question for those who root but keep the stock ROM: can apps be moved to the SD card in that case? Or do I need to break out of stock ROM to do that?
Thanks in advance!
Wanted to report back that I tried a simple case of using Directory Bind for something non-critical as a test. Used it to remount Titaniumn Backup to the external SD. Yes, I know you can just point it there. Just wanted to test Directory Bind.
It seemed to work until I rebooted the phone. Then it lost all the binding even tough I had checked off to save it for reboot and saved the binds to a file. So just beware that if you were using Directory Bind for something critical - you might have to recover the phone! I removed the package for now.

If your'e just talking about music, you can put it in any folder and any structure you'd like. The Android Media Server process scans your entire SD card for media (including music) except for folders with a ".nomedia" file in them. It will use the tags to identify the artist, song, and album, then sort them based on that information.

don't bother moving any apps to the external sd, since you have TONS OF ROOM in your internal memory on this phone..On the original note, I had over 300 apps installed on the internal, and still had over 5 gigs of room left..
just keep your music, movies, pictures, and other space hogs on it..trust me, leaving apps alone will never be a problem when you have a phone with this much storage space!

11GB is a lot (available to start with on the ATT model) if you use the external for media (and app cache) and leave the internal for apps mainly...agreed.
Most apps are small in size...however, one app like NOVA3 is 2GB and that is a big bite of your 11GB available, so that is a little concerning
I haven't had the device or android long enough to know, but, are app databases and cache allowed to reside on the external card --in lue of the ability to move apps to the SD being taken away since Jelly Bean (was it at that update)? Can someone point to a good thread on the reason and discussion about that? Thanks.

You can make your external your main storage device by using this root technique. But some people don't advise it saying it slows down your processing on apps.

Note II is a Unified Storage device. It has 11gb available for both user content (pictures, movie, music etc) and apps. I lost 2gb of space moving from my S2 to the N2.
S2 is not a Unified storage device, so it has 11gb of storage available for user content and a separate Apps partition of 2gb.

Ok, so here is my question, sorry if it was asked, i used the search and couldn't find something like me.
So whenever I install games, many uses about 200-300MB of space, it will use my USB storage which its coming to a fill very soon, if i keep downloading new games. My question is, how can i make use of my 16GB SD card to install game files. And, I just re-read the GS2 box, and it saids it has 16BGB-32GB, is there a way i can upgrade the internal USB Storage, or what exactly did that mean?
The 16-32 Gbs are like iPhones they come with 16orll or 32 gbs units. Have you tried pushing the data from tthe gamed to the sdcard?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA App
I know i can copy it from USB to SD, or move, but i know that wont do what i want to do. Since it will be move, whenever i load the game and looks for the files, it wont look in the SD card, but the USB storage.
I thought the GS2 only came as a 16GB model. It will accept up to a 32GB microSD card and Android seems to be pretty intelligent about being able to find stuff on the external SD card if it's not in USB storage (internal). It finds my ringtones and images on my external SD card without me having to do anything.
If the apps/games you're using aren't enabled for being moved to the SD card (Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/On SD Card) then you'll have to find some other way to make space, perhaps moving your images to the external SD and configuring the camera app to store images there, or uninstalling apps.
it can actually use larger than 64 GB microSD see my HowTo guide
I'm curious as well because some titles like Asphalt 6 and GTA 3 download much more data than the .apk was to download.
For instance GTA3 from the market is 12.93MB, and if you move to external SD Card, you're moving only 13MB, but the game data to download is around 450MB and where's that stored? I have an external 32 and I'd rather prefer to store everything on that primarily.
I was so seeing the same thing. I have 32gb SD card and I would to find a workaround for this silly issue. Any input would be awesome!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
On a regular linux system, it would be a simple matter of finding the folder where the data files were stored, copying them to a new drive and then configure /etc/fstab to mount the new drive on top of the data file folder.
not sure if this is possible with Android and would require root if it were possible.

tried app2sd?
sorry for the delay respond to all.I was away from a computer for awhile. So, i see all this talk, and it has helped me understand a bit more. I actually decided to delete some already beaten games to make space.
In regards to the pics and music, they have always been in my SD card. But i will download app2sd and see if it works. The actual app itself does not bother me. Most of the time, they are very little. Is the download after what does bother me. Most games need from 300mb to nearly 1Gb of space. Now thats a lot, when a phone comes only wiht 11.5GB of 16GB and we know why that happens.

app2sd is not going to help you, if you already have the stuff installed to SD card
those cheesy App2SD apps only shows you which Apps can be moved to SD
you need Link2SD the real deal, the one that actually convert stuff over to the hidden partition in your SD card to use as Internal memory, which you are short on

I understand that my Galaxy Nexus does not actually have an SD Card, but an SD card folder, right? So for best performance I can move some files, like most downloaded apps, to the SD Card folder. Maybe data files like eBooks, right? Then I get lost. I have downloaded a couple of apps that are supposed to help me move things to the SD Card, but I don't quite get how to move them. Some SD Card apps show a list of apps that can be moved, but there does not seem to be a place to tell it, 'OK, do it.' I know I can attach to my PC/USB and see the file folders, but it seems like just drag & drop would lead to confusing my phone's operating system.
Maybe someone can recommend an app that is simple enough for me to understand.
Galaxy Nexus (Sprint) unlocked and rooted to use SuperUser. Running JB 4.1.1 stock from the recent update. Baseband ver: L700.05 V.FH05 / L700.FH05, Kernel ver 3.0.31-00006-gea59422 Build JRO03U.L700FH06 (BTW, I am trying to document the pertinent information about ROM & build and so forth to use when I ask for help from developers. Can someone tell me what is important for you to see?)

first off moving apps to the sd card wouldn't improve performance, so there wouldn't be a need to do such a thing. The reason the sd card is a partition instead of an actual removable card is because that way people wouldn't need to move apps to the sd card. The memory for internal vs sd card will be automatically adjusted as needed. But if you want to move some files from one part of your phone to the sdcard, so then you can simply drag and drop on your pc or use any file manager app like astro or root explorer if you need something from say the data partition.
So, just forget about it...

pretty much, glad i could help out
Moving files won't do anything, it's all the same, just a different folder called "SDcard" to keep compatibility with apps that are looking for an SDcard.
Ahh, now it makes sense. If an app was designed to take advantage of an SD Card, then it is still compatible with Nexus. Thanks, I get it now.
Hey Guys,
I just recently bought my wife a 64gb micro sdcard and I was hoping I could make it the default storage for everything if possible.
What I meant about that is for caching like maps, dropbox, fxcamera, maxgo, hbogo, and many more. ( it is currently located at /sdcard0/Android/data ).
Another thing is for some apps like whatsapp/groupme/viber, to save videos/pictures there. There seems to be no settings in whatsapp to save attachments to the external.
The only thing I've managed so far is to set the camera to save to the ext sdcard, that is about it!
Is there a way to move /sdcard/Android/Data to the external SD card?
Also, is there a way to install apps to the external sd instead of internal? She just had the phone in 10 days and it is almost full
Thanks!
EDIT: Wife GN2 is stock, unrooted -> will not root ever
EDIT 2: I just read that you can't move apps to the EXT SDCard anymore with JB - but that is fine as long as I can assign cache/default directory storage of apps to the External SD .. if someone knows how to
BUMP!
I just did a lot of research and found out that with GS3 and GN2 you can't transfer app to ext SD or install apps on the ext SD anymore when in stock.
Wow, that is so bad! Three big games would fill the 16gb already. I'm pretty sure Google has a good reason for that.
Anyway, some features of the GN2 like burst shot does not allow to save pictures to the external sd card (which is fine) but is there a way to automatically transfer files from internal to sdcard, while deleting files from the internal files while doing the process. It is like rsync in Linux.
As much as possible I want the GN2 to purely use the external SD instead of the internal.
Any app that can do that? Unrooted.

Curious if anyone has modified the partition table on the device? With the System taking up 4 some gigs... seems silly not to shrink it down a bit for more app usage. Any thoughts on this one or am I just thinking silly on it?
I think the same but i found nothing. I flashed a debloated rom for the 10.1 and now have 1.2GB free on system parts. I used titanium backup to transfer some app from data to system but it's boring. But it's nothing compared to my MicroSD card memory

I did transfer some apps over as well, or in reality can remove them because they sit on the SD partition because of updates (really wish it would just update to system by default). I know moving some updates over just screws it up, let alone just moving screws up the icons on the desktop portion.
I don't have a de-bloated rom right now. The way I see it, its being used or wasted at this point. Apps don't seem to be slowing it down, though im sure a few are running in the background, but nothing that has hampered battery life like my previous Nexus 7 (2013). This seems to do much better at not wasting power. Guess im not being as picky as I use to with random apps chewing up space.
I would of jumped all over a 32GB edition from the get go. Paired with a 64GB SD card, its win win. Even now it is, just can't install everything I want to in 1 go since most apps still are stored locally on the main internal SD Partition and can't be transferred over. I can live with it, and im sure someone will figure it out. I know I use to do it with an old phone that had, next to no internal memory (a loong time ago). PITA to update, but well worth being able to use the phone.
You can use FolderMount [ROOT] to create a symbolic link between internal SD card and external to move your application.
For example if you want your google offline music on sdcard you can mount /sdcard/android/data/com.google.android.music on external sdcard.
It is possible to do it for every folder so it solves the problem :highfive:

Course, internal storage is always faster But for music/movies obviously SD Card just works fine with that.
Hello. I bought a SM-T210R for my daughter she burnt through her 8GB pretty fast. I told her to just move her apps to the SD card..... Than I found out you couldn't. I rooted it. I would like to know if there is a good app to use to move the apps. I tried some of the apps on the store app2sd, and a few others. They don't seem to work and suggest you ask Samsung for a new rom.... Any Ideas? I am sure it has been asked before, I was looking through all the threads couldn't seem to locate one. So I am sorry if you are answering this question yet again :cyclops: Thank you in advance.

Hi I know android 4.2.2hasent been officially released for our tablet but a Dev called @mkaymuzik has been porting it works really good and it has move apps to sd card just incase his doesnt help
Since you're already rooted and (I assume) running a custom recovery, there's a somewhat easy solution for this. First, back up everything from the internal memory located at /sdcard, and copy it all over to whatever physical SD card you plan on using - I went with a 64gb. This is probably fastest if you just back up all of /sdcard to the pc, and use some kind of card reader to transfer it over, you'll get much better speed, but you can do this all over MTP with the usb cable if you don't have a reader. Next, reboot into recovery and flash this kernel, which among other things adds support for a storage swap. Clear the cache for good measure, this won't affect any user data. Reboot, and using a terminal emulator or adb shell, run the following command:
Code:
su
setprop persist.customboot.sdcard internal
Reboot once more, and you'll find your physical sdcard is now mounted as /sdcard, while the internal is mounted as /.sdcard (which virtually nothing will use, but that's fine). Any large games you install should put their data in /sdcard/Android/obb, or /sdcard/Android/data, or just random folders on /sdcard, all of which are now your physical card. Once you've finished the swap, you'll want to delete most/all of the files on /.sdcard, since everything there directly uses space in /data/media. Now the only thing that will eat up your internal memory are actual .apk files.
This does have one downside, the storage interface in settings doesn't really know what to think of the mod. It will claim you only have 8gb internal, but then show the free space available on the physical card. If you've got more than 8gb of stuff on the card the bar graph is completely useless, but at least the text does show the correct free amount. I've currently got around 20gb of misc games installed and working great, however if you have any Humble Bundle games keep in mind that these don't use .obb files and the larger ones will quickly eat up your internal space with gigantic .apk files.
You might also want to disable zram once you flash the new kernel. It compresses ram that's not actively being used, effectively giving you more ram at the cost of cpu/battery. I find we have plenty of ram and I'd rather have longer battery life. As root, the command is:
Code:
setprop persist.service.zram 0
You'll need a reboot after running it, of course, but you can enable the sd card swap and disable zram at the same time, rebooting only once.
This is probably the most transparent method, once it's set up you won't need to manually move new apps as you install them, and you don't need to worry about apps that write to random locations on the sdcard.

This is probably the most transparent method, once it's set up you won't need to manually move new apps as you install them, and you don't need to worry about apps that write to random locations on the sdcard.
