Use FolderMount from playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount
I have 3 games with 2GB each, and still have 2.7GB free in the internal memory.

My device is not rooted

Well, now you have a reason to root it!

I.e. can't be done without root as the stock ROM does not have support for it

Installing on sd?

I have made some trick with adb but it doesn't work or partially anyway. It installed one app I think on the sd and all other normally on phone memory. I have 2.2 normal android, not rooted or anything. How can I install apps on sd card without rooting my phone? I will root it eventually just don't have time for it these days.
Go Settings > Applications > pick an app > click move to SD
The app will only move to SD card if it can. Not all apps can but most of them.

Will probably do that in a week or two. Is this option available, I mean to install directly on sd card, on android 2.3?

Think its the same as now, the problem with app2sd is say you have a 20mb App and move it to SD card say 16mb was moved to SD the other 4mb will still be on phone memory. Soon enough you'll still fill it quite quick, Using data2sd it puts everythink onto the SD card and you set how big you want your internal memory MAX size 2gb.
I have 76 apps and still over 1.2gb space to install apps read more into doing this you will also need a SD card class over 2. Am using a 16gb class 4 from play.com cost me £15 great buy Pny is the manufacture.
I love A2sd+ nothing else to use!

App2sd+ is just the same has stock app2sd, apps still store on phones internal.
App2sd is just pure win

AFAIK, it can't move OBB ("additional resources for ..."), but I think it's possible to bind-mount a folder (in any partition) over the expected location.

Thanks for answer.
I saw I can move my obb folders and all other apps in my sd card without swapping memories or part sdcard !
Does it works?

Never heard of it, but from the description it appears to do exactly what I said with a GUI :good:

if you want space specifically so that you can play/install more then 1 hd games, then use gl to sd...it will move ur game data from phone to memory card and all you have to do is open gl sd app and Mount game and play...... that way you can have as many games you want.. i have fifa14 mc4 and asphalt 8 @ same time.. thanks to this app ..
hope i helped.....

swapping method only works in JB 4.1.2 not in 4.4(CM11) or OFFCIAL JB 4.2.2 as the workaround is that you can download GL2SD which actually mounts the particular folder for you to play the game with data on external SD card...but remember before installing any game you have to have to place data FIRST in internal sd card then TRANSFER the data through and only through the APP(gl2sd) and game will work fine..
don't forget the thanks button..

[Q] How to install apps on SD?

I recently bought an sd card. I am rooted running Iron rom and skyhigh kernel for the T800. For anyone using sd cards, is there a way to install apps to it and run it fine on my device while it being on my sd? Can someone tell me an app or something so i can save space on my internal storage? I have also applied the sd patch and formatted the sd with my tab s. Thank you!

It kinda works.. It just moves the data over. Anyway it doesnt matter as most games I have are small, so I can move all the big data to the sd and mount it from there. But thanks for the help!
