Thanks for the reply! I'm interested in swapping memory cards as its quite troublesome to keep moving game data. Is there any way to save the location where the data has been shifted to.

It shifts data to sdcard/obb folder

Not only obb folder , also in data folders and gameloft folders that depends upon the format of the game data..
From galaxy grand 4.2.2 firmware..

But is there any way to swap the cards as I'm not interested in moving every game one by one? Also if i use gl to sd will i have to bring games from my ext sd card back to my int and then use it?

Any way to avoid bringing the data from ext sd to int sd and then using gl sd. Can we somehow change directly from int sd?

There are quite a few apps in the market that allow it.
With the galaxy s3 you can't install apps and run them from the SD card... unless you do the storage swap mod...
yeah none work they all say phone not supported

Im having dificulties finding the storage swap mod for the S3. Can anyone help? I use alot of games and my storage is full!! (ROOTED)

Be careful..if you do it wrong when ever you try to install apps it will say "storage space full" and you have to Odin back to stock to fix..but if you do it right its a good thing to have..also use titanium backup and back IP the games you're not currently playing and save them for when you want to play them and restore.. read the thread carefully as I do not know if it works with jelly bean if you're on that.

Es explorer will allow you to move files from internal to external

App2SD Not Supported?

I tried link2sd but I get this notice
App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.

if u have my or balli's rom then u have init.d support ..
so flash this through cwm http://d-h.st/AGR. it will convert internal in to external and external in to internal sd.
if u didnt have init.d support then u have to enable it. and flash above file
I am on stock rooted fw. How to enable init.d support?
Edit.: ok found the zip to enable. Thanks.

if u have flashed the above file...then ur external storage is swapped to the internal sd. so now install all app or games u want. they will get installed in external sd.
there is no need for link2sd ...

It will not automatically do that. You will have to open ext2int application and configure it.
Use Gl to sd application.. It has a great developer support... This external to internal application last updated on Nov 2012.so there are so many bugs like duplications of files... Obviously applications install in phone memory only data files will move to the sd card. If you want to move only applications. Use link 2 sd... But data files cannot be moved using link 2 sd application..

I tried GL to sd before and since it is for Gameloft games(hence the GL name) and I don't have gameloft games installed it showed a blank screen on startup in addition to the "mount" and "unmount" buttons.

Reinstall the application again and try... Email to the developer he will surely help u... He helped me a lot. It's not only for gameloft.. All games and large data applications supported... I have installed 75 applications among these 21 are hd games... I purchased the pro version of Gl to sd applications so it will automatically mount at boot. Check screenshots..

:good: Your answer has the price of gold!!!! That's exactly what I wanted - to move the application data.
The cyanogenmod I installed yesterday has driven me crazy! In the LG's original rom I used automatic script with `mount --bind` command, it worked perfectly, in cyanogenmod it has very a strange behavior. Although I could see in `df` it was bound and could see the files from external storage at that location, but the applications still wrote to the internal storage somehow transparently in the background. Don't ask me why and how it was possible, but it made me angry. Now I'm keeping the cyanogenmod in my phone.

Yes I have tried to reinstall today and still shows blank list of applications. meantime using ext2 int, my sd card which is now the internal storage has been reduced from 14gb to 11 gb so far --- evidence that my installed applications have installed on the sd card and not on internal memory of the phone(which is now the external).
I am happy with it so far.
As for gaming I use my galaxy note for that. Also the note has "move to sd" natively.

Game doesn't start means.. Check the game properly mounted... There is an option about mounted games in gl to sd apps... Check all your game data in obb or data folder..

So for running a game that has been moved through gl to SD, I have to mount it first through gl to SD and only after that game will run otherwise it will crash. Am I understanding you correctly?

How to swap between External Sd card and Internal Storage in Grand?

Guys any tutorial or trick to make SD card the internal sd storage ?
I cannot manage all the games and apps in only 4 GB internal sd space given .
Moreover There are some problem in having internal sd (4 GB) . Like all the app backsup in that 4 GB space only which is not possible . Like whatsapp and moreover cwm also makes backup in that 4 gb space n which is not good in case someday I brick my phone etc etc.
So I want to swap between internal sd and external sd card . If anyone knows how to do it then please comment.

Alright bro...first..
Cwm makes folder in extSD card/clockworkmod/backup/*here*..
Second...as I see...ur main problem might be HD and big games with data..(If that is the scene, ) try gl2sd app..that will move ur game data to sdcard..and mount it whenever u want to play game..(simple as hell )..
NOTE: you have to keep a data first in phone memory, then it will move to SD card!(don't pit in sdcard directly)..
Hope I helped

the old method is change the mount point in /etc/vold.fstab but it doesn't work with this Emulated storage feature

I agreee ! ,this is only solution for now i think.
damm...multi user feature:crying:
hii
u can use link2sd for link all ur apps to 2nd partition in external card ..and u can use folder mount app for mount media ,data folder like
whats app and others apps to ur external card ..these two app can save much wanted space in our grand ..and yes gl2sd for games data
also a useful app..

use folder mount app to move apps to sd... its the best app as my suggestion ..
use install manager
Backup your sd card on PC and partition your sd card and then use links to sd to transfer apps to sd card
But, remember your sd card will get formatted if you partition your sd card
