Oh yeah I also tried directory bind did not work..this is very fustrating and I can use the help... and there's no wi fi tether for root users.. I have twrp recovery..im on the LJ7 MODEM..MY SG3 MODEL IS THE SPH-710 ...HOW DO YOU MOVE APPS TO SD CARD SO I CAN UPDATE MY APPS...PLEASE HELP ME GUS OR GIRLS!!!!

Have you tried clearing data and cache from the play store, settings-apps-play-clear data, clear cache. That's happened to me on various phones and roms and that has always worked for me?

Out of curiosity, do you use lucky patcher? And what else have you used to try to move the apps to sd? If your default install location had been set to sd via an app, and the card isn't set up right you will get this error.

I haven't used apps2sd in a long time. If I remember correctly you need a separate ext partition on your sd card. If you never formatted the card that may be the problem too.

what is a lucky patcher? ...i just bought the sd card i have been able to add things to it and install with no errors..when i updated the jellybomb to v7 i unstalled it on this sd card with no problem...

You're running a deodexed ROM....go into system/app folder and see if you see any .odex files. If you do, delete them and you won't have any problems updating after that.

I'm running an ODEX stock rooted JB ROM. Is there a way to use the external sd card for apps? I purchased the 16 gig model thinking I can use my 6 gb ext card, only to find out it is sitting there only being used for titanium and root backups.

[Help] Apps on SD Card

I've read most of the guides down here and other forums and how to install apps on the sd card, but I'm confused with one thing, having the AP2SD on the ROM automatically does it? or having just the ext03 partition? I tried every method i read but there is something im doing wrong as apps are still installing on the phone (some apps on SD and some on phone), i even tried the modInstall app and chose the SD card but I still can't get it, I know im doing something wrong or missing some step please help me
you need both
you need o have a rooted rom with AP2SD included if not AP2SD installed a partion ext 3
Download gscript lite from the market place the attaced script in the in the gscript folder in the gscript menu add script and see what it says
sorry forgot to upload unzip and use the file inside
thanks ill try it now
btw im using LeeDroid latest ROM and latest radio version with bootloader 0.80
so you just need to set up the ext3
•Froyo A2SD mod install location is included in the rom doent that meet your requirements
havent used it myself didnt know it existed till i checked the LeeDroid rom

it is working, but is there a reason why some apps would not install on the SD card?
thanks for the help <3
it does seem to be working i dont get the stderr messages not sure what they mean
what apps arent installing to your sd remember your imternal phone storage will decrease slighty i have about 40 apps installed and mine is down to 88mb
only: Bluetooth File Transfer, Facebook, Papertoss
but no big deal thanks for the help with the script it's was excellent!
paper toss i actually went into the settings/ applications/ manage applications /downloaded and had the option on the phone to move it to sd which i did
Hi everybody, just thought id mention that if your using a rooted froyo 2.2 Rom, you not longer need to use apps2sd or make a partition on you memory card. Instead use setinstallloctaion.apk this then installs all your apps to card without the need to partition your sdcard. works great for me.

well I am runnig froyo and i installed SDMove which has "Apparently" moved apps to the SD that had gone to the internal memory
But:
If you use the FroYo APP2SD method and moved your apps manually to the sdcard, will you be able to use them when you connected your phone to the PC in "Disk Drive" mode?

[Q] Insufficient storage space - APP2SD no longer installed

Hi i have made a stupid mistake and need help.
I have a rooted Note 2 (N7105T) running wanamlite ROM.
I was having storage issues so i installed APP2SD and changed the app installation directory. However it was not working properly (i have since found out that samsung has a /sdcard0 which is a virtual SD card on the internal memory instead of the physical external SD card.
I uninstalled the app without changing it back, and now i cannot updatre or install apps! everything seems to have spare capacity, but i keep getting the insufficient storage error. i cant even reinstall the 50kb APP2SD app to change back the directory.
please help

Help cant access internal memory after a file patch

sgh m919
4.2.2
rooted
I was in the process of beginning to move games from internal to sd memory. The thing is I didn't even mod files yet. I downloaded a program to move files but when I downloaded it the program said a system file needed to be patched. once done phone reset but when it came back on I Could not access my internal files. It shows up when connected via usb to compete but the phone folder is not selectable. my phone memry is filled just as it was before the patch all my apps on the phone are there, some are usable others such as google play wont open. please help
Can you reverse the patch? (Remove it). Flash a 4.3 TWz base ROM, native app2sd built in.

You are talking about the app FolderMount. I use it and I have no issues. Neither when i was on 4.2.2 nor 4.3. I would try again. Something else must be causing the issue.

They want game data and stuff stored on the external SD card. App2Sd only stores data. Not downloaded stuff. Like, for my maps app, all my maps are on the internal, no matter what i do, other than FolderMount, i cannot get them to the external SD and still work. Mainly because when an app looks for the sd card, it returns the internal directory.

Gotcha. I too use Foldermount with no problems. Stored my maps for GPS on ext sd card.
Would be helpful if OP post what app he/she is using.

you're correct I'm referring to folder Mount and it's the cause of my issue. I downloaded it then opened it once open a message came up claiming I needed to patch a system file then reboot. After reboot my internal Memory was not accessible only apps and games but pictures and google play type apps wont open when trying to open I get a message saying google play or pictures stops when connected to computer I can see phone folder but wont allow me to click on it. when I boot into recovery I cannot Mount the internal sd card only my external card.

[Q] SD Card as main/default storage

Hi, can I use SD Card as default storage? How? I have a 64 GB SD Card, but every App/Games data is in external storage(which have only 10 GB, and now it is full), when I move Android folder from external storage to SD card, every game stops working, because can't find data and try downloading it again to external storage. I try several app for moving to the SD card, but without luck, Is there any solution? Thank you.
app removed sorry
Why would you think that just moving an app's data would be okay? How on earth would the app know where you moved its files to?
Have you tried Apps2SD?

Yes, without luck. I move it to the SD card, but its same as when I do it with file explorer, game canť find data and trying downloading it again..
Are you running a custom ROM? I thought from your signature you were on Viper. Then I realized its not a Viper version number (7.0.0) that applies to this phone.
I think the SD card fix needs to be applied for Apps2SD to work, but most (if not all) custom ROMs should already have the SD card fix implemented.

Yes, sdfix is aplied in rom (Viper 3.1.0.) I see in some LG device, it have in setting/storage when people can select default storage. I need set a sd card as default, but can't find how.

Install Apps to SD Card

I recently filled up my internal storage and have put a new 64gb sd card in my TAB S. Now I have figured out how to move apps already installed on my device to the SD Card through the app manager. Is there a way to install apps right off the bat to the SD card or do I have to first install them to my device and then move them over?
I have the same question-
But i m not able to move app also, do we have a fix?
Few gb's game lead to no storage space available - how to fix this guys.
Root, install SDfix for R/W permission and FolderMount or Link2SD to transfer files, data etc to the SD card.
It's kind of convoluted. I read you could use adb to set default location to external sd. Sounds great except it doesn't work. I'm using folder mount right now. It's a bit tedious because you install your app on internal first, then move any large obb to external. I tried link2sd but had trouble with partitioning the card. I'll give it a shot some other time.
I don't know why you just can't like sym link /sdcard0 to /sdcard1 and be done with it.

I had the same issue before., Rooted the device and install custom ROM which did not solve the issue as I wanted. Installed the Kalikazoo above and another KitKat External app from the Play Store and then I was able to use the Apps2SD for most of my apps. After using these, I was able to use the External SD as I had planned. My big issue was Apps Backup & Restore which is my backup to Titanium Backup if any of the ones I want fail. Since all of these take a lot of space the external SD is a MUST. I have it am I am a happy camper because of it. Shame on Samsung for limiting our use of that external slot right out of the box.
