What's easier is doing apps2sd.bin script run it through script manager. So now everyone my phone boots it swaps internal for sd card.

What do you mean just run the script and it swaps so it sees the sd cards as the device versus the internal.
I have only like 550Mb of storage left on internal. So I run the script now with no issue.

That's all I was asking for. Didn't seem like anybody ran the script, just said it was easy and a post to the original script.
So when you ran it, did you take off all the "apps" that you had and then reinstall them or move them to the sd? Or did you just leave them where they were. Are you stock rooted or are you reromed and have a different kernel? For some reason it just seems to easy for something so big. Big as being a huge advancement in our phones and seems that there isn't much talk about it.

Stock Rooted NO CUSTOM ANYTHING but doesn't matter it works with Customs Rom and such.
i started all over so "my apps" versus the stock apps bloatware would be installed on the SD card. I had done a factory reset. Then i ran the script and started all over again by getting all apps back and such so all my games are installed on SD card allowing more room for games apps.
Factory Reset>Ran Script>Installed Apps>HAPPINESS
when i ran the script before you run the script like i did through script manager app i gave it su permissions and boot through app itself if you follow the direction form the link i provided its easy to understand and never have to worry about re applying the script. With a fast SD card apps will be easier to load i have the 64GB Sanddisk 30MB/s Mobile Ultra.
I'd be very wary of running everything off a fallable SD card. I prefer the app GL to SD. Works with many apps.

older phones ran everything of the sd almost 75% of the time what are you talking about.
My Epic 4G (Non Touch) ran everything pretty much off the SD card with a 16GB Class 2 with the SD cache set to 1024kb instead of 128kb so it ran as a class 6. Every application ran off it.
Even right now my 64GB Sandisk 30MB/s Class 10 UH1 does primarily my games, other apps.
As long as you don't have a POS as in generic and the card runs well with android your set.
I Play GTA 3 & VC constant i was playing it yesterday for 4HRs straight without issues besides the whole save thing (issue on R* side).

I've learned my lesson from corrupted genuine Sandisk and Samsung SD cards among others. I've never had my internal storage corrupt on me through 8 different smartphones spanning 6 years. I've had my external card corrupt around a dozen times. Constant caching to an SD card WILL degrade its lifespan.

well what else do you want, people want to be able to play more than just 3 games on their damn device.
As it is they charge so much just for a 32GB variant; when the S3 came out it was ridiculous. not to mention the 16GB only allows truly 11GB and after 3 games that all of each require 2GB+ it takes a hit and no more room left.
I had GTA 3, TDKR, MC3, NFSMW, and had no room left i think i only had 550MB left meaning smaller apps not any BIG games. Most people like BIG games.
If they were to simply allow applications and other various data for the sd card to access, and then allow all caching etc... straight to the internal then we'd be fine like they used to before they got rid of Apps2SD.
I use Zedomax's apps2sd zip located in the note 10.1 forum... tested on ljc, lk8, and why not rom.. I have found that pulling the sd card causes soft bricks. Flashing a rom corrected it... I have been running it and it works fine for me. That is MY results....
☆☆☆ I will not be held responsible for any bricks or any damages as a result to flashing this mod. I take no credit for the mod. Flashing a mod intended for another device is high risk and should be avoided. I just didnt give a f**k at the time I flashed it and it actually worked for me. YOUR RESULTS CAN AND MAY VARY!!!☆☆☆

i've been using link2sd and it seems to be working well for me. can you see any drawbacks to this method? this is what i used on my evo lte before i switched to the note 2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919326
I recommend directory link as it has proven to be better than the app2sd script, at least for me. When running the app2sd script things would take a while to load and nova 3 would try to install every time I ran the app. When it finally did, it ran pretty well but kind of annoying. The phone would sometimes not run the script and freeze or save new things on to the wrong location. The directory link takes a while to set up but works better in my opinion. You only have to move what you want which comes to be mainly games for me. When the app does fail it will tell you and all you have to do is load it up again. Games for some reason will keep playing even if the app fails and it has an auto unbind when you connect to the computer. I'm using a 64 gig class 10 so a pretty good SD card. Still in exfat not formatted to fat32. Try both to see which suits you best.

YES! Come join us on the root side, everything is better XD
Additionally to evoer's suggestion, you can also check Link2Sd which is a free app that allows you to move selected apps to the extSdcard. Root is also need for this app to work, so yeah root it! You must partition your sd to have one part FAT32 and one part ext4 partition. There are free apps for that floating around that'll work on PC, not sure if the current custom recoveries have this integrated. I know back in the EVO OG days we were able to partition directly in recovery.
Warning - before partitioning, you must back up everything in the sdcard to you PC since this will format you sdcard.
As for rooting, if you take that road, go this thread found in the Android Development section. It's a tool created by Senior moderator/Recognized developer mskip. Read through the OP and some pages before attempting this. But this is on of the most straight forward and easiest methods available.
Really good instructions too

Im now sporting my new GS3 16 gig using Phantoms Blaze Rom with the extsd2internalsd GS3 64g class10 mobile, internal 16 gig ext.
worked like a charm. Their are some issues where some apps install the app and data into the real internal memory but noting too big, Atleast thats the prob im having. Good thing i didnt spent 400 bucks for the 64 GS3 im a happy camper with this mod.

Just my opinion but if you choose to root it, do it yourself. That way if anything ever does mess up, you can figure out how to fix it on your own instead of going on one of the forums saying "help my friend rooted my phone and now everything is force closing, what do I do?!?".
It really isn't as complicated as it seems, so long as you follow all instructions and there are many here to help of you get stuck and can't find a solution to a problem. However, a decision only you can make if it is worth it. There is always a small chance of a brick. I've done it before but only cause I was a idiot and flashed an international s3 version ROM when rooting my Sprint galaxy s3
I rooted my LG optimus way back so that I could remove T-Mobile bloatware since the phone was crap anyway. Since then, I always root and have become a flashaholic (although wicked sensations v1.1 is keeping me grounded for a bit ). I'm slowly learning thanks to all the great info here, I was all proud of myself for modifying my mms.apk last week and recompiling it with no issues I still have way more to learn but once you start it is like an addiction. Lol.

Pardon my ignorance but why would you need to move any apps 2 sd card? I mean I have a S3 16GB with a 32GB card added to it and I have about 70+ apps installed on the 16GB card and I still haven't reached 50% of the memory on the phone....

I don't think there is any need for these kinds off apps/hacks anymore. The original EVO and other androids had horrible memory issues. They were trying to get by with 512MB to 1GB for both the system files and the apps. The big apps like NOVA etc only have a small piece on the ROM portion of the memory. The rest is on the internal or external SD card. So there's no need.
Granted I have the 32GB version with an additional 3GB SD card only because I had it from my EVO days. Most people don't need that much space.

ICS and JB don't allow moving, I guess that's why phones have more than 1 or 2 gigs now.

It still allows moving to SD on devices with 2gb or less internal, or a partitioned internal. However internal SD on this device is just a folder on the single partition allowing you to use the entire space for anything from apps-zips and everything in between

Why do you want your apps moved to the sd card, are you running out of internal memory? I keep all my apps on internal and have my sd card for music and pics. The s3 has enough memory not to have that problem of needing apps moved to sd card. Well that's IMO.

I have a Note II (Sprint) and i recently purchased a class 10 64GB Sd card, i rooted my phone and followed Galaxynote2root video on youtube (i can't post link but it's the one about apps2sd) https:// www youtube.com/watch?v=QUF7R0mmk00
It did work, it's showing that i have at least 59GB on my "Internal" and my REAL internal is now showing up as SD with 700mbs.
The Problem: While it shows that i have a lot of space, anything i download is going straight to internal (real) not the 64GB card.
What i want be able to do: - To take all my apps/files from my internal drive and move them to the 64GB SD card
- Have any files i download/install go directly to 64GB SD card
I purchased Titanium backup but it's not moving the files to SD it says it moved but storage app is not counting
I'm so confused if anyone has the time to help me i will greatly appreciate it.
Google in all their wisdom removed app2Sd in Android 4.0 and up. This is why we need a 32 and 64 version off this phone. Make sure your titanium backup defaults to your external as well as the camera to save internal space.

Sadly no. I've not been able to use any kind of apps to do this.
Between Google Music cache, google maps/earth cache, tumbler cache, Bard's Tale, and Asphalt 7 that's using up almost 9gb of space on the internal "card" partition. It's crazy that the Evo3D could easily move apps/data to the SDCard but we've taken such a huge step back with this flaw.

Huh? There was apps2sd in 3rd party ics builds for my evo4g. It will probably take some time to port it to the various N2 ROMs unless there is some overpowering technical reason for it bot working. N2 is still new and young and devs are still getting the hang of it. Stock OTA might not ever get it but who stays at stock?

In the Play Store description on apps2sd the developer specifically lists the Galaxy Note 2 as a device which is NOT compatible. :crying:, not happy about that one either. Cause with the potential of this device and its display I want to d/l kick ass games but can't plug up my internal storage when I have a perfectly good class 10 32Gb SD card!
The only fix for this to my knowledge at this time(which my knowledge about moving apps to the sd card is not extensive at the moment. I have done a little research. ) the only solution at the time is an available script. Which I saw on Galaxynote2root.com as well. But I am personally not familiar enough with the method nor how it may interact with a custom ROM therefore I am personally waiting for either a clearer description of the process or a different method all together.
-Thanks
I got it guys!
Okay
The video teaches you how to flip your SDcard for the Internal, so the phone thinks you are installing on the internal but it's actually the SD (CONFUSING LOL) So when i went to titanium pro, i was super confused with the whole "Move to SD" i didn't know if it was moving to SD or the Internal since i flipped it was all super confusing to me i'm new to android, i've had an iPhone since the first one and decided to get a Note II about a week ago.
So what i did was just deleted all my apps, followed the video and installed all the apps again from the play store and it went to the 64GB card!!! So yay :highfive:
Apps/games run great not even lag at all, camera/videos save to 64GB so i'm really happy.
Careful with that card. Definitely not as reliable as internal memory. Especially if your taxing it with everyday constant use .
I just ran into this issue, no space at all! I just realized that my titanium had been installing to my internal.

Says I don't have enough space to install wtf
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Hello guys,
I was wondering if anyone has used app2sd or any others to convert your apps in your internal to external memory
when i tried using app2sd it will put it on my external yes but as soon as i run an application like a game it will re download it and put it onto my internal. Anyone else having this issue?
there is another solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2109112
This solution works to swap internal with external but for 64G SD cards people are having issues so I am re framing from doing this method.
don't bother with this; there is so much room in your internal memory, that its a waste of time and effort..you will never fill up your internal app space.
I have 300 apps installed, and still have almost 7 gigs free...
Hi try the rom toolbox from play store to install app on sd card.

That's not entirely true. Some people play various games which seemingly chew through storage space for all the media bits and pieces. Look through some of the directory bind threads for examples.

I totally agree. With my 16gb GN2 I find myself low on internal storage all the time. Yes you can install literally 100's of smaller apps but games such as NFS: Most Wanted, Nova 3, Spider Man and many others nearing 2 gigs each or more, it's hard to have more than a few games installed before having to un install just to try out a new game that you're interested in. If you find a good work-around let me know. I've found that App Mgr III doesn't work with our devices (and many others) and my ROM Toolbox Pro only gives you the option to install all apps to either your internal or external without the option to pick and choose which goes where on an app to app basis.

I use Directory Bind myself with my 64bg card.

I like this program because you select which apps you want to move to the sd card. It takes more work to use but once you get it setup it works flawlessly so far. I have like 25gb of games installed on my phone

Exactly what I need! Looks very promising. Plan on giving it a try tonight or tomorrow. Thanks

So you need to select each app separately then? Is there no way to do a batch select at all?
I'll read up on it more.
There is no way to do a batch selection. If you wanted you could select the folder before the game and that would be like doing it via a batch selection.
For example:
Let's say Shadowgun was saved in Android/Data/com.shadowgun/ (again this is not the exact location)
Instead of binding that location you could bind Android/Data/ instead. If you do that you will capture EVERYTHING in that directory now and anything that gets installed there in the future.
The downside of doing it that way is if an app wants to install into that location it will always force it to the sd card which is slower than internal memory. So Games like Asphalt 7 and Nova 3 take longer to load on sd card. So that is why I did one directory (game) at a time so I can choose which games are on the sd while others are on the internal. All games worked though via directory bind that I have tried.
Hope that helps.

Thanks, so perhaps this method is not the best scenario for me as I am looking to have all my Apps and data plus music, videos etc out of internal storage on to sd card. Using this method if you update an app I assume it would go to internal and you would need t do the process for that app over again?
I guess I am wanting a seamless way of just swapping internal-external. The script I am using seems to work very well but I am concerned when I go to a 64GB card. I'll keep watching the posts in the _ext2sdcardnote2internal thread.

Actually when you do app updates it updates the info on the extsdcard and not internal.
So what happens is the software tricks the Os into thinking the data is on the internal card when it really is on the ext card. So everything happens automatically. You do not need to move the info every time there is an update.
I would suggest doing a small app and playing with it before you jump in all the way. Use Deadtrigger for an example, it won't take to long to transfer the data.

Thanks again. I am keeping an eye on the extsdcard2internalsdnote2 thread as well re: 64GB cards. The App2SDnote2 script I am using works well with 32gb card but unsure about 64gb card.
I'm running LiquidSmooth Jelly Bean 4.2.2 and was wondering how I can store Apps (large games like Gameloft, mainly) in my SD Card. Apparently, the ability to move Apps to SD Card was removed in Ice Cream Sandwich.
Any reasonable solutions? I bought a 32GB SD card and just realized this. I have bought about 15GB of games.
EDIT: Is it possible to (easily) replace the internal SD card with the external SD card? Like make the phone think they're switched? The only downfalls I see to this is that the external is slower, and that moving everything over may prove to be a pain in the A$$.
Thanks

I do not believe this is possible.
For Gameloft you can TRY this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...m_medium=organic&utm_term=gameloft+data+to+sd
There's no guarantee though that it will be compatible. Its for GameLoft Games only.
You can mod the phone like you described. However, you have to be on a Touchwiz ROM with init.d support. Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849844
It states that it has been untested in AOSP ROMs, so if you try, do it at your own risk. Also, most people are stating they cannot get it to work with AOSP.
Good luck to you!
P.S. This will sacrifice performance as you are absolutely correct, external memory is a lot slower. Make sure you get an SD card with high RW time to try to offset it a bit.

I've been using this Mod for a while and it does work on aokp aosp cm and even without init.d support with smanager However although it switches your sd and ex sd the apps still get installed to the sd card but when you download stuff ie music movies etc... they go to the exsd instead which is still fine by me.

The mod specifically says you need init.d.... idk why they would put that if it wasn't a necessity. As far as it is working on aokp and such for you... The mod is supposed to move everything including apps to the external SD. You stated this did not work correctly for you. It is very possible that as you are not on an official build your not reaping the full benefits of the script.

Yeah maybe...
Here's a quote by the way
"If you do not have init.d support, you can also enable on any rooted phone by using Script Manager, here's a quick tutorial:"
Please before replying have the common sense of verifying what I say. I don't appreciate being called a liar now read the thread please. It's 5, 6 pages at best.

Dude, not calling you a liar lol, just pointing out what the thread states. Chill out. The thread says you need init.d support. It gives you a tutorial how to enable it on a rooted phone.
You just linked to that tutorial to enable said support. Therefore, you must need it. Your original post said you did not. True, it mentioned SManager, however the way your post read it seemed like you didn't need init.d at all one needed to do is just get SManager. We don't know what level the OP is at, they may not know what SManager even is. My post was just reinforcing the mod's OP which reflects init.d is a must.
