App data to external card

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if there still is no way of moving the app data to the external sd card?
I am especially interested in the games data, because i've got tons of games, and obviously cannot play all of them because of the storage issue.
I know about the gl to sd app, but I was wondering if there is another way of doing this, as after using this app, you need to launch the game from the app.
Also is there a beta version of some sort of the app2sd app that might work on the S3?
Thanks!

yeah
dont have any way to move app to external card?

Here you go: [TOOL] DirectoryBind - move data to external_sd (GameLoft, Shadowgun etc.) ROOT req.
Runs very well with my S3 and the 64GB sd-card. You are able to move every directory you want to the external sd-card and mount it to the internal sd-card.
- I just do not use the "Transfer files from target to data" and have moved the files manual by myself before I make a directory bind.
- At second I have to activate "Alternate dbase mgmt" and "Persistent service" (under preferences) to have the bindings after a reboot.
- you can make a backup of your bindings e.g. if you want to flash a new rom (under "options" - "backup database")
I use the version 0.2.0o

I'm trying to make this thing work, but not really succeeding; here's what I did:
> First time I tried one game by using the "Transfer files from target to data":
- I long tapped the first field, the source, and selected an empty folder on the external sd card
- I then long pressed the second field, the target, and selected the folder on the sdcard containing the game data
- Then ticked the "Transfer files from target to data" option and taped the Add button; then waited for the operation to complete
- Afterwards, runed the game, but it prompted me to download the data.
> After this method failing, I tried to transfer the files manually, with another game:
- Created a new folder on the external card and moved the game data manually there
- In the app, I selected the target and the source directory respectively, left the "Transfer files from target to data" option un-ticked and taped the Add button; waited for the operation to complete again
- Then I runed the other game and the same problem.
Please note that I ticked the "Bind on boot", "Alternate dbase mgmt" and the "Persistent service" options in the app preferences and tried restarting the phone and checked the games again, with no luck.
Could someone please point the mistake in what I did?
Thanks!
EDIT: nevermind, I did not taped the icon before the bind so it will turn green.
Now it works!
weepeey!
Thanks for that!

this program can do that too without root, but it's only for gameloft games

If u r rooted then i highly recommend using "gl to sd" from play store n thr great thing is that it is free. I myself use this n this works for all games... provided that u r rooted... worth having a go

I used that, but it is really annoying that you have to launch the game from within gl to sd.
The Directory Bind app works very well, and you can set the bind at boot so no worries about having to set everything up every time.
Thanks anyway!

Try "super mount" from lidroid.u can find it in market.

Could you tell me how to use it ?
On google play it says that i9300 is supported.
I created a new dir on extSd: "lidroid". After starting app, and hitting "mount SD card" it says Mount error
Does it require root ?

Rooting does not bring back the apps 2 sd function. I recommend directory bind, mentioned earlier

I have just installed and tested DirectoryBind on my S3, I actually transferred GTA3 data files from the internal to my external SD, works fine, rebooted my mobile and tested the game again, worked fine too. Very happy with this app...

I think that it is a little bit uncomfortable to launch apps from GL to SD(root), however, the developer is working very hard on the app which is great for our SGS3, recently we got an update for 64 SD cards and misc, i wil put my prayers on this man for having a completely app that resolves the anoying emulated storage for our loved SGS3 :fingers-crossed:
for me, this is the best.

Nope.. If u have enough internal memory, download the game & later move the data/obb file to ext sd using foldermount...

App2SD or Link2SD didn't worked for me either but there is this free app on Play store Root External 2 Internal SD which increase internal memory to same as that of your Ext sd card. Only problem is, it duplicates all files, like when you open gallery/videos there will be all double copies of each file. When you open File Manager you will see that there are same number and type of files both in Internal & External memory. If u r ok with that, here is the link to Playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.codlab.int2ext&hl=en
P.S.-- I hav Xperia M (single sim) so i don't exactly know how this works on Dual sim variant as Xp M single runs 4.1.2 where as Dual runs 4.2.2
Hope this helped:angel:

[Q] Cyanogenmod 10.2 - Move to SD Apps

I have just installed cyanogenmod 10.2, android 4.3 on my samsung s4 lte version.
It is a great rom, but I am not able to move apps to my SD. Even if I download Link2SD or FolderMount, which I paid for, they both seem to act
weird and complain. How can I transfer my games and apps to my SD card?
Thanks

How do you use it? Do you manually create the link ? I didnt have to do that with the stock ROM. Also in the app list, it lists many applications as
0 bytes.. and can't do anything with them

Yes. There is a "+" sign in the menu. Tap on it and FolderMount (FM) will ask for source folder (you can browse it via UI) and also asks whether it should create the destination folder automatically.
For example I have Sygic maps on internal SD (/sdcard/Sygic) which is a quite big folder, around 5 GB. So I inked it to external SD - FM autocreated it on external SD and moved the files.
Try to find Youtube videos about FM usage.

External sd card not writable from Dolphin browser

I cannot download anything on external sd card using Dolphin, anyone faces the same problem?

Yes you can't it's because Kitkat has prevented write access to the SD card. You need to change the platform.xml and manually add the media write access or install the xposed HandleExternalStorage. Both methods require root.

Will that fix this issue too? trying to backup to sdcard in tibu??

Yup it fixes tibu. I think dolphin uses the same security as Chrome. There is an xposed module called download2sd and chrome still refuses to download to SD.

Then perhaps Dolphin change something in their app. You can try contacting them directly.

[Q] Move apps to SD on stock KK ROM

I love playing games on my s4 mini, i've used lollipop till' now but i like the Touchwiz UI and i wanna go back on offical kitkat again. But i noticed that when i move a game to sd card ( ex : Dead Trigger 2 ) It only moves 50 MB to SD and remaining 400 MB are still on the phone. Can anyone help me with this issue ?

The app you need is FolderMount. Search about it and you will get what you need

You can also try GL to SD as Folder Mount doesnt work for me again.

U need to install this app from play store. ::: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en
When u start the app for the 1st time and grant root access it prompts to fix a storage related issue. Choose yes. Then u can move parts of apps onto sd card.
But if u want to move large games... then u need to install xposed framework and ObbOnSD module. Here is a video on XDA-TV that will help you...
