[Q] Move apps to SD on stock KK ROM - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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...

Are u sure, that u are using ur sdcard for installing ur apps? Maybe it tries to install it on the internal memory space because its the default setting. Try this: Go to settings ->applications -> installation settings now set memory card as default installation location

[Q] moving apps and game data?

Just got a GT N7100 few days ago. rooted it. i have lots of games installed like max payne, gta3 etc. so all my storage is gone. i want to ask how do i move games and apps to external sd? can i backup game data which is everytime whopping over 1gb so that i do not need to download it again if i reinstall any game. is there any way to move gamedata to ext. sd?
and:victory: i just got idea if i do not uninstall game back but just backup gamedata and delete it from phone to free up memory and when i need app i just move back data to its original location which is usually android data, will it work.
i have 300 mb free space and now my phone doesnt allow me to install an app even less than 1mb of size..any idea......thanks in advance.......:good:
Moving to external sd has been asked and answered before. Here is one I replied to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010235

No if you want to use the same files/folders on another phone. The game downloads files for your specs, not for other phones.
If its for your or another Note 2 then it might work if the game has not been updated since your backup. If it has been updated it might need the new files.
RE
what about if i do not uninstall game back but just backup gamedata and delete gamedata from phone to free up memory and when i need app i just move back data to its original location which is usually android data, will it work and yes i will be doing this on same phone.
That will probably work unless you open it by a mistake. Maybe not if it has the permission to run at startup. It could look for the files then, and not find any.
Both of the solutions i linked to works for me.
Directory Bind is most useful for me with this phone.
And then you don't have to wait for the copying every time you want to play a game.
re
can u shed some light on directory blind and how to use it?
I used this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889550
Remember that apps with root access can do everything they want with your phone, including making it as usefull as a brick.
Don't use an app with root access until you think you understand a little of what it does, and you have read a few reviews/posts about it.
Be extra careful with root apps that are not in the Play store/Market. This is not. Why are they not there? Maybe because Google rejected it because it does bad things?
I wanted all of the data in the folder DirectoryBind on my external SD card. What you are supposed to do then (step 2 in that guide) is change the default data path to /mnt/extSdCard/DirectoryBind. I wrote /extSdCard/DirectoryBind because my Galaxy S II had a link to the microSD card there. The Note II does not, so the /mnt/ is important
Took me a while to realize what was wrong...
Thanks man .. DB did the job.....everything s now fine.
Startup soung stopped working?
hey man ! after installing DB startup tone doesnt work..any ideas?
The Samsung tone when you turn on the phone? I don't want that, so let me know if you find out what removed it.

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:

I don't know how to set it as a default (I think I seen a Xposed module for that), but with the tool FolderMount can you move installed apps and games easily from the internal to the external memory. U just need to choose the /android/ folder of the game to do so. The app needs root though.
It all depends on the apps

It works great!
I have another question..
I want to update mokee rom to new nightly version which is of about 7 mb..
I transferred the zip to my phone via pc..
But do i need to delete Obb On Sd module before flashing?
Or should I flash it without doing anything?!
