Titanium Backup - backing up apps that are on SD card - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.
I have many bigger apps (mainly games) moved to SD card. Currently I have Android 4.0 ROM and I want to test some of them but I am afraid that backing up apps that are moved to SD card will make them unavailable to restore or something. Are my apprehensions right or there is nothing to be afraid of ?

Take a look at this link.

Is there an APP for storing APPS on your SD card?

I searched and didnt find anything...although Im sure there is some thread out there that I missed but is there a APP that you can get that will allow you to store APPS on you SD card? Also there is only 1gb of internal memory for the EVO right?
Thanks in advance!
app2sd...i struggle to believe that you did a very good search...
app2sd, but I believe you need root. Just make sure you back up your SD card as it makes another partition. I just rooted and it cleared up 100+ mb from my internal memory.
Also 2.2 comes with sd app privledges.
Internal memory is around 400mb, which is a pretty decent number for a mobile phone. Apps2SD allows you to run apps from SD however I believe it won't allow you to restore them if something happens. For that you need Titanium backup or MyBackup or a froyo Rom which can automatically backup apps via Google.

[Q] move2sd or link2sd?

for the pro member here, what is more effective? move2sd or link2sd
base on free memory and performance .. tnx
Personally... NONE
Use Titanium's backup batch option and move the apps that you want to your sd card
really? none? why?
IMO, link2sd is good (since i havent tried move2sd), since it moves lib and dex files too. i think titanium only moves the apk file, isnt it?
do anyone tried data2sd?
Move 2 SD usually moves internal memory installed app to sd and it is very effective if you have low internal memory left.
I use "DroidSail Super Move 2 SD" it is free on market and does what I need.
I have already moved unnecessary apps that does not needed to be installed on internal/phone memory, for ex: Facebook,Twitter etc.
If you find difficulties for using this app PM me...

[Q] Can't move App even with Free Space

I'm using Link2SD and even though there are Gigabytes of free space, I can't move a 6MB app from the SD card to the SD card's second partition because of apparently lack of free space:
"pkg: /mnt/asec/appnamehere/pkg.apk Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INSUFFICIENT_STORAGE]"
The internal memory has about 50MB free, SD card has 7GB free and the second partition has 800MB free..
In fact, I can't move any apps to or from the SD card or internal memory either. However, I can unlink apps back to the internal memory without issues.
I'm using ICS for HTC Desire 0.5.1, default HBoot, Clockworkmod Recovery Touch 5.8.0.2, aGPS and default homescreen with no scripts.
Can anyone help please?
Thanks.
Did you try to restart your device? Do the same process again...

Need help putting game SD data on Ext SD

I'm really not liking the fact that game data doesn't store to default in Ext SD. I have 3 games with SD data of around 3.3gb which take up precious storage while my Ext SD sits free.
When I move these data folders to the Ext SD,the games ask to download data. Currently I have uninstalled those games (e.g NFS most wanted 1.8gb) because I have my nandroid back up and titanium back occupying around 2gb.
I have tried using link2sd/partitioning my Ext SD with Ext2 format, but that only installs the actual apk to the Ext2 partition while the game data still sits on the Internal SD.
I also tried directory bind but that often causes android to freeze untill I pull out my battery.
So please if any body knows how to place SD data on Ext SD and games are able to trace the data there, please HELP!

Was gonna suggest directory bind but you already tried it.
It works fine for me, no crashes when re-linking NOVA3 to Ext-SD.
I'm on stock ATT ICS 4.0.4 rooted.
just swap the int,sd with ext.sd card.
if you are on GB or ICS then you can do that esaly. there is a thread about it.
for JB (4.1 or 4.2) still isnt working.
Can I get the threads link?

Just flash light Rom version 9. The aroma installer asks you if you want to swap the internal with the external. I did it and it works great!

That ROM had a few bugs that I hated. For instance it repeats notifications. So I restored my rooted stock ICS by Dman after about 5hrs.

Well I am using it and so far so good. I especially like that lightRom fixes the GPS as well.

Installed:
CWMR5x_i927_recovery.tar.md5
ICS 4.0.4 LiteRom 0.9.0
LiteKernel
I was able to switch both SD's via the link given by lorddavid. So now my Ext SD is seen as internal storage while internal is seen as Ext storage. Hurray

Only thing i found was:
"Settings"-"ASUS-Usersettings"-"App-Insatllation"
There you can choose if you prefer internal or external storage for App-Installation. Maybe something you've been looking for
OK. Thanks for the quick response. I just ordered the US version in 16GB, so will put in a 64 GB card.

The Apps settings menu has a "movable" list next to downloaded, running and all.
I don't have an SD card so I can't take any action on the apps listed there. But it sure looks like you'll be set.
I did this last night. I moved my apps, music, and books to a 64gb sd card. However, some apps were not able to move to the sd card. Not sure why but it said it was not allowed and these were third party apps. I used wondershare mobilego to move the apps and moved the music/books by plugging in my sd card to my pc.

You need root and Link2sd Plus.Create a second partition (ext 2,3 or 4) on SD Card and you can link almost everything on that partition.But you can move/link the apps and games after you install them on phone.
Can't show screenshots ,coz i am new member ,sry.
