[Q] Done with Partition SD card, but can't move all apps

Hi,
I did the partition SD Card using ROM Manager.
Then I went into Settings > Applications > Manage Applications >
& tried to move apps to SD card.
However, I could only move some apps, not all.
The Move to SD card is gray out.
Did some search & found the A2SD Darktremor http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=715938&highlight=apps2sd
Installed that, but still can't move all apps to SD.
What am I missing please?
thanks,
D

you are confusing the native froyo apps2sd with apps2sd+, if you have apps2sd+ and an ext partiton, apps are moved auto to the ext, if you already have apps installed, you will have to move them manually using adb

Hi AndroHero,
Yes, I'm indeed very confused.
I searched everywhere, & am I correct to say that the only way to get the App2SD+ is from a custom ROM which has App2SD+ built-in?
You said "if you have apps2sd+ and an ext partiton, apps are moved auto to the ext", meaning if I downloaded a ROM with App2SD+, all new downloaded apps will be automatically to the SD card?
some apps, such as keyboard related, which needs to be on the phone's internal memory, then I have to use adb?
Thanks,
D

So I moved my apps2SD. Then installed a ROM. How do I get it to "find" the SD apps?

So I moved my apps2SD. Then installed a ROM. How do I get it to "find" the SD apps?
I'm being told that my SD card is full. AND my internal memory is full. I have a feeling that the apps are installed in 2 different places. Is this the case? How can I tell?
I'm a mess, don't know where to start. Thanks for any help.
Later!

What method did you use to move them to your SD card?

This app called SDMove.

I've never used that before. I've always used Dark Tremor A2SD. Most of the roms support it. It requires partitioning your SD card. It will also move dalvik to SD which really frees up space. It's recommended using a class 4 card or faster.

I never partitioned my SD Card. I guess that might be a problem, and is probably why they never show up on the SD Card? I don't know.
Does partitioning the card require reformatting the SD Card?

If you installed a new rom without doing a full wipe, the rom should load all your apps if there are no conflicts. Thd SDMove app is just an easier way to move apps that can be moved to SD storage instead of going through HTC's app management in settings.
In regards to DarkTremor's A2SD, yes you would have to reformat your SD card to create an ext 2 or 3 partition. Most custom roms should state whether a2sd is available and then you just setup the partition in recovery. Make a complete backup of your SD card onto your comp that includes a nandroid backup and Titanium backup or MyBackup Pro app+data set.

In order to determine if you have multiple copies of your apk's , use a file manager and search your evo. I use "app 2 sd" on the evo using root explorer I found that apk's are kept in "mnt/asec" and "mnt/secure/asec" , which are folders on the sdcard. Since you used an application to move your apk's to the sdcard and not the OS apps2sd, you should find only one occurrence of each apk.

Apps 2 EXTERNAL SD

What application are you all using to move apps from your internal sd to the external?
I tried Gemini.. but it just moved everything from my phone mem.. to the internal sd instead...

i just downloaded the app2sd app by sam lu, although it does move the apps one by one, but some you can't.

Apps 2 SD still leaves too much stuff in the Internal SD
Link2SD is better here's an example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343164

use Link2SD app to move your apps to SD card. Don't use APP2SD.

[Q] GPE Apps to SD

I am using the Sinless GPE Rom for a while now and have had no problem using it. Yesterday I've bought an 64 GB Sandisk extreme SD card and it works flawless except for on thing. I can't seem to move apps to the SD card, in the app manager there is also no tab for the SD card and there is no option to move any app to the SD card. Is this because it's a GPE Rom?

Only some apps have the option to be moved. Download one of the apps2sd apps and it will list which apps can move.
With kitkat, devs need to include an option to move apps and data to SD.

I do have apps that support apps2sd on kitkat. It just does not list them in the app manager. I thought it maybe is related to the fact I use a GPE Rom. I can't move any apps to the sd not even apps that should support it. Yet I can move files to the sd and read the sd card and I even formatted it inside the phone.
