[Q] Move Apps to SD Card

Is there an easy way to do it with the LG G Pad 8.3 without rooting the device?

No, but with Root you're able to use foulder mount and with this app you can move app data to SD.

GL to SD lets you mount folders for free. Folder mount lets you mount 3 folders max (obb folders excluded) unless you pay 2.5 euros.

Cool. Sounds like I'll be rooting this tablet as my next step.

Data 2 SD

I'm currently running Android Revolution HD, I want to save my current app data to my external micro SD card. Any ideas?

download mounts2sd app from appstore. its free.
i am using it and it works perfectly.
all my applications and application data is now in 64gb card and leaves me with lots of space in internal memory.
application data in sdcard makes phone a lil bit slow though.

Searching for 10 days..
My phone is rooted,s on, insertcoin custom rom, I can move manually apps+ data (using es explorer) to sd But the link isn't done between the app and the data, I mean the app doesn't work and always want to download data again..
I tried mounts2sd but it doesn't find sd_ext and so doesn't make the job...

ok. no worries mate.
following is the way i did and proved to be working.
1. format your sd card
2. create a fat32 partition. it has to be primary partition.
3. create a ext4 partition. it has to be primary partition.
4. create a linux swap partition. it has to be primary partition.
5. better to start with a fresh rom installation. you can try with already installed rom.
6. install mounts2sd.
7. start mount2sd and go to application settings and install script.
8. in settings select the folder you want to move.
9. enable swap.
10. restart the phone - without restarting script won't take effect.
DONE!!!!

Oh god I need to return to high tech school!
Format Linux, format fat 32 partitions....
Which app to format all this?
My sd card is 32 go how many go must be designed to each partition?
I have max 10 go of medias and 15 go of game and gps data and nandroid backups..

use minitool partition manager.
you will find fat32, ext4 and linus swap option in that.
in a 32gb card you will get 28-29 usable free disk space. if it was me i would have done 23gb media and 5-6 gb ext4 and 256mb of linux swap.
cheers

Hum, I suppose minitool partition manager is a Windows app and that the job will have to be done mostly on pc right?
I have found this link on Google is it what you're talking about : http://www.noypigeeks.com/android/tutorial-a-guide-to-link2sd/
Quite the same no?
Isn't it possible to make the partition job in twrp 2.7 ?
Ok first thing I backup my sd card on my computer

FolderMount also does a good job on solving this problem...
And NextApp SDFix enables write compatibility on KK devices.

Yes these apps are nice, I tried them but you still have some link limitations if you don't apply @dying4004 method..

Ahh, I see: It's mounting (Linux...) external SD permanently. Didn't think about these consequences! Thank you.

And so what are the bad consequences of mounted Linux?
Yesterday I formatted 3 partitions with his method on my external sd card, half of my apps had gone, the phone took 7 minutes to reboot...maybe I made a mistake I will try again today with a fresh Rom !
Why is it so complicated with this phone to put app+data together on sd card and make them work? ! ! !

Nothing mate, I'm a Linux user. It does have only good consequences, I didn't talk of bad ones. :laugh:

I tried mounts2sd, followed all your instructions and partitioned my SD card as you suggested. I just can't get it to work. When I rebooted I was taken to the 'getting started' section (like a fresh install) but couldn't complete it... constant 'play services errors'. In the end I just reflashed ARHD without mounts2sd. Can you think of anything obviously wrong that I might be doing?

Exactly same thing for me :banghead:
Where are you @dying4004 ?
Seems like the problem is caused by su but i am not sure..
I lost 4 hours by trying 2 times till yesterday, help!

guys, here is the official xda link for mounts2sd.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432479
* i have found out that moving dalvik cache to sd causes play services and other errors. it might be a different issue as well but for now i am keeping dalvik in internal.
* if after a restart you get few services error then simply force restart the phone and things will become normal upon restart.
i am running mounts2sd with viperone. it should be compatible with other roms but i havent tested them.
cheers

I tried again to run mounts2sd, followed all instructions and encountered 'play services errors' again. I forced reboot a couple of times but still the same issues. Then I turned off, waited a few seconds, turned it back on (which took quite a while) and all is working fine.
I think you need to turn off after enabling the script rather than reboot.

Ok!
So just one simple question now:
Can you move a full app (ex game + data, ex dead trigger , 136 mo) to sd card and make it working ?
Because I can't. It is said : "link is created with sd card" but the app doesn't find its data if they aren't on tel storage anymore!

i believe it depends on the game/app itself.
i am running full data/app moved to sd card and working - fifa 2014 - 1.4 GB / need for speed / real racing more than 1 gb

Ok for the dalvik tip!
Last time it didn't work with real racing 3, I will try again tonight :banghead:
May I ask you the exact way or commands you execute to "move" all the app (for example rr3) ? In which order?
First you download the app and...?

Phone Reset EVERYTHING after OTA Update

I'm furious! I just updated the latest OTA update and when it booted up, the phone had factory reset itself, i lost everything i had and it doesn't even let me auto sync all my apps again. I had all my contacts organized in a very peculiar way and i lost HALF of them. I'm so pissed right now, what kind of service is this?

Which room are you using? stock or custom? What is your find 7 model? X90??? What file system had your sdcard? Standard fat 32? Removing card and reboot doesn't help? Can you read your card with a card reader at your pc?

The sd card shows but to no avail. I was using the stock Color OS. I can't switch to a custom ROM as of now, i need my camera fully working.

This sounds like your card is not formatted properly!?, maybe the filesystem is no more supported -I don't think so, maybe a virus, I'm not very sure about this. Can you check your sdcard at a pc with card reader? Is there relevant data on your card (better had there been) else try to format it! Sounds not like a normal error, recommend you post this bug in official oppo forum!

What do you mean with, the sdcard shows but to no avail?

Put your sd card in an adapter and put it in your PC and copy all files to a folder on the PC (you should be able to mount it OK)
Format the SD card (back in the phone) and mount it via USB or adapter
Copy the contents of the folder on the PC back to the phone, reboot and install your apps again. Most settings from previous apps will be present (mine were including sygic) and the important stuff
Install 'purchased apps' from the play store and install any you have forgotten about.
Use the built in backup program on your phone to make a backup.
This is the best I can offer and should guarantee no further loss, or at least make it easier to restore in the future

Is your phone rooted?
You can try editing the platform.xml file as described here...worth a try.

does not work, the program tells me it can not move to the sd because your external device has primary storage which is emulated from internal storage . You can enalazar palicación to move your files to your sd card .
any ideas?

Have you tried using AppMgr III by Sam Lu? It seems to work for me though not every app is movable - bear in mind I am using flyme rom 4.5.2 not the stock rom.

You'll probably have to root or try the already rooted flyme rom unless anyone else has any bright ideas?

Try FolderMount!

Just found an app that moves obb to sd card look on the play store for an app called GL to SD from tnslf2kk. Root is needed!
You have to launch the app from within the app or it will re-download the obb files.

Or you could just install the obb on sd xposed module and move whatever data/obb you want to sd and start app/game as normal through the launcher.

Anyone know how can i use Link2sd on Elephone P8000? I want to use the second partition of my sdcard to link my applications data. I've partitioned the sdcard. Link2sd see the second partition and asks me the file system of this partition (ext2, ext3, ext4, fat32 ecc). I tried all of this file system, but Link2sd says all times me "invalid argument".
Sorry for my English!! I hope that you can understand me

Well depends on if you partitioned your Sd card well try the process again

i am wonder too how to send big data to sd? have you found a solution for that problem?
UPDATE:
just install gl to sd from google store. Works fine. Shame that Folder Mount not works with Elephone P8000...
UPDATE 1:
Folder Mount works too. Here the solution.

I tried like 10 apps to move the apps to my sd card and none worked, i found one working and i managed to move some apps but most of them are not movable.. i tried editing the platform.xml file but when i opened it it was already edited like said in the tutorial. Im on Eragon v7.2.0

App requires external storage errors after custom rom install

OK, so I unlocked my 8T phone and installed Paranoid Android the latest version, all goes well.
However, now I have started install apps from the play store, many of the apps are not installing because they are throwing out a "app requires external storage" error.
I have a 64gb sd card installed, lots of space. It worked fine on the stock miui rom before.
Ideas anyone?

I guess it happens due to a permission misconfiguration, like what happens on Linux,
If I were you I would try to format Data and SDCard to see if it solve the problem,
