Found this app on the play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp
Basically, it let's you store your game data to your external sd, and save you precious space on your internal storage.
Watch the video on the store for detailed instructions.
Only draw back is that you will always have to open your game from inside this app, which to me is well worth it!

I am sorry if this question has been asked earlier.
But, can you store the applications, pictures, videos and music in the MicroSD card?
I heard some people say, that you can only save applications on the built in Flash Memory.
Pictures, videos and music, you can put on the microSDHC card, but apps you can so far only install on the internal memory.
But this might soon change: http://mobiputing.com/2010/04/google-to-let-you-install-android-apps-on-the-sd-card- soon/
If you have something like TomTom (not sure if it's available on Android but for the sake of an example it will do ) are you able to install maps to the sd card?
Most applications do use the SD card for application specific data.
So, for example, Spotify saves the tracks for offline playlists to the SD card, and Copilot installs its maps to SD card.

Yes.
For example: CoPilot (this is exist in the Android Market).
CoPilot will put the maps in the sd-card (You can download the maps directly using CoPilot app itself). This is working nicely!
I read that other navigation software like SyGic also put the maps in the sd-card.

Thanks all, think I'll go and order it then
Thanks
Thank You for the information.
I don't really understand the DInc's 8GB of Internal Memory, the one mounted as /mnt/emmc.
For one thing, apps can't install to it. Apps can only install to the 748MB internal memory or SDCARD.
I can't put videos there, the Gallery won't see them. Videos have to go to /mnt/sdcard. I can, however, put photos and MP3s there. However, when I run an app, like MultiLiveWallpaper, it can't see the photos in order to randomly change them unless I put them in SDCARD.
If I install a big app, like a 3D game, one that needs to phone home to download an additional 100MB or so of data, it will only download to the 748MB internal memory or SDCARD. It won't use EMMC.
So pretty much, that whole 8GB of Internal Memory seems rather worthless. I need an SD card to do anything. Is there any way I can trick android into seeing the 8GB of internal memory as an SDCARD, and then not need an SDCARD?
My pictures stored there are seen by the gallery but I'm running CM7 RC2. I had a problem a while back with the Sense Music Player not seeing my mp3's there but I just bought MixZing instead.
Yeah, the gallery in the stock ROM can see pictures stored there too, but apps can't seem to so I have to keep those in SDCARD as well. Sense music player in the stock ROM seems to have no trouble finding MP3s there. I wish I could just use that 8GB emmc as if it were an 8GB SD card. I don't have that much music on mine, so all that space pretty much goes to waste. The emmc in general, seems pretty much worthless so far as I can tell.
I think he was talking about some problem with Z roms where the internal storage can't be seen. I use it to store my ~4 GBs of music which is useful.
Yeah, storing music seems to be all it's good for. I wish there was a way to use it as an SD card. Oh well, I guess I will fill it full of music since there's not much else I can do with it. It's weird that pictures that I put there show up in the gallery, but not videos.
Now that I think of it the Stock Sense ROM could see the music but I couldn't get any artwork for it to show up. All the apps I found for downloading artwork couldn't read the internal memory only the sdcard. I've had to redo my entire music library, all 7000+ mp3s to imbed the artwork into the file to get around this. Then I went and bought a 32 GB sdcard and resized all my mp3s to fit on it and only use the internal storage to hold pictures and all my backups.
Don't know why I even thought to search for a solution for this, but I'm glad I did as I found this thread:

It worked perfectly! Now the phone thinks my internal storage is an 8GB SD card and I don't even have a need for the MicroSD card at all.
can someone confirm if i can store my music, picture, camera pic, document, files and other backup on sdcard and store app on internal memory?
so basically no app store on sd card?

You apps will install on the internal. Storing media and files on the external is up to you. However, I believe you have the option on TouchWiz whether pics save to the external or internal. On things like AOSP/AOKP, you don't have that choice yet... If you do then darn, someone show me that option.
Running CM9 Beta 1, it defaults all storage to the external_sd, but I have access to the sdcard (internal storage), obviously.
Just moved all my music to the internal storage, seeing as how my 14.1GB external sdcard is almost full. x.x
Google music, N7 player, and many other apps WILL NOT recognize that my internal sdcard has about 8.1GBs of music on it.
Which is dumb, because my Quickpic app knows there's pictures on there. Album art.
Does ANYONE know what gives?!
Makeshift solution.
So.. I found a handy little app called Directory Bind. And I just ended up binding the internal SDcard's music folder to the music folder in my external, and BAM. As long as my SD card (external) is in my phone, it works.
Kind of a pain in the ass..
Turn on viewing hidden files and look in the internal music folder for files called .nomedia and delete them.
