Data moving to SD? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Has anyone figured out or found an app that can move game data to SD without root. I know we have move app to SD but the real hogs are the game data as we all know all good games are at least 1gb in size.

Not to my knowledge as moving any apps on note 4 to external SD card requires a new permission to be added in system and no way to do that without root access.

pretty ridiculous root is needed for basic functionality ..
try stock My Files or 'Files' or whatever the note4 named it. that one should work

Low on space

How to get rid of Low on space notification/restriction? I have 40MB left and that notification is simply annoying, to say the least...

why don't you move some of the installed apps to SD card?!
um, I moved all the apps to SD card I could. Meaning the ones that support moving. I could force move to SD card for some apps, but don't want to screw with that.

That message is there for a reason and if you know what your doing some times it just takes common sense you can move most of your apps to SD card even if the creator of the app doesn't allow it in the app setting 's

How come some phones are okay with less than 20MB free... anyway, arc's internal memory size is way too small... "common sense", huh? Well, I have my own reasons for not wanting to force the apps to SD...

Links2SD works wonderfully for the Xperia 2011 phones.
I did the "move to SD" for every app possible, but still ran into issues downloading games from the Market due to only have 20-70 MB free on the internal phone storage.
But, using Links2SD, creating a 1 GB partition on the SDCard for apps, and moving/linking pretty much everything to that, I have over 150 MB free internal phone storage for app downloading.

It isn't big, but not too small.
Some of us, as I do, have more than 100 apps and ~100MB left.
Once I had 145 apps and 80MB were left, I just use the native App2SD. No Link2SD etc
Do you clear your cache regulary?
Gives me back ~10MB each day

Well, if you compare Arc's internal memory to some other devices' that have 16GB of it, it does seem tiny, doesn't it? I have more than 200 apps and I use Apps2SD, so I move apps to SD if they support it. I used TB to force some huge apks to SD, like Epic Blue and Green themes for CM7, but it's a bit of a pain if you're on one of those themes when you have to reboot, because you have to reapply the theme after the phone boots up. And yes, I wipe cache on daily basis. I'm getting myself 32GB memory card so I'll probably try Link2SD or something like that. I currently have 2 class 8GB card which I got with the phone. Lousy card, lol.
But anyway, I just wanted to know if it was possible to get rid of that Low on space message. Like, okay, I know I'm low on space, I'll see what I can do later, but get the fck away from my status bar now cos you annoy me...

I think we should remove unuseful applications.
Does anyone know the way to backup applications, group them by folder and restore all without asking anything?

Micro sd cards and installing apps

Sorry if this is a rather silly question. But when you insert a micro sd card into the note, does it simply make your storage space expand from the internal memory, so when you install large apps they share the memory or do you have to physically move the apps across to the card. If you know what I mean

you have to move them
Most apps install in system partition but the data of few larger apps is installed in internal memory like gameloft games or data in android folder.
You simply can not move those files to sd card. U need root access and 'movetosd' app to move system data to external MMC.

If you are just clearing items from the internal SD and not from any system locations then you should be fine. Everything on internal SD is just extra storage for you and your apps. You may lose saves and settings if you were to just clear the whole thing. I would suggest going through and deleting the largest items or moving them to external SD. Use Disk Usage app to view the largest items and see what needs to be moved. Use GL to SD to move large games to the external SD but do note that you MUST launch them from GL to SD if you do this. GL to SD does require root. Also, I would advise deleting pictures and video if you use your camera a lot. Back them up first of course. If you have Google+ installed with it set to auto upload your photos and videos, this won't be a problem.

Anyone figure out how to move apps to SD card?

I would really like to free up some space on my internal SD. I bought a 64GB SD card , and am using FolderMount to try and move the apps, but to no avail. Anyone figure this out yet? I am rooted running Infamous S4, and have removed all of the bloatware possible. Still really low an memory.
I use the stock file manager to move apps, i had this same problem with storage. Do you have more than one backup saved on your internal sd?

Like I stated in the original post, I am using FolderMount. The problem is the folders where the games should be are empty when I look for them. That is the ones I can find. Its like they don't really exist. I went into my data folder, did find one game, Zynga Poker, and tried to move it, pinned it, and it did absolutely nothing.
Your not moving the whole folder then. Your doing something wrong. Watch a couple YouTube videos on how to. Navigate to SD card, android, data or obb and select one of your games inside either of those two folders

Move app additional files to sd card?

Im running Goodness Noteworthy 1.06 with Perseus kernel on my Sprint Note 2. I've looked online and from what I understand there is no way to move apps to the sdcard after the jellybean update. I'm really just needing the additional files the apps download like the 1+gb that you have to download for Need For Speed or N.O.V.A. moved to my external 16gb micro sdcard so my internal memory isn't so low. Ive tried the app Folder Mount from the play store and it didn't seem to work. Has anyone found a way to get the files to the sdcard and the game still be able to read them? Thanks!

folder mount worked perfectly for me. i had about 12gb worth of game data from gameloft and ea (incl nfs most wanted and realracing 3) moved to the sd card with this app and the games played perfectly. at the moment im having issues with my sdcard writing anymore and im hoping that doing this folder mount, it didnt mess my card up. the games have been working for a couple months now. i know this isnt much help but i thought i'd share my experience.

good luck man. here is the thread by the dev incase you havent read some faq's yet. it really did work well for me when i used it
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192122
I use My Drives to find the space hogging files. It's free.
FolderMount, DirectoryBind and so forth can give funny readings on the when you look at storage. You literarely have not the storage used and available before and after binding. Most of the file explorers will show the binded file in the original location. It's been moved, but what you're seeing is more a holding marker.
I figured out how to use Folder mount and its working good. I was just not mounting the data by clicking on the paperclip button lol. Thanks guys.
