After I link an app in links2sd I go to manage applications and I see that the app I just linked is on my phones internal memory. Isn't it supposed to be on my sd cards second partition?
Link2SD creates a link on the internal storage. The phone is not aware that it's just a link, and reports that the apps are on the internal storage. This is perfectly normal for Link2SD.
But after I link a few apps it says insufficient storage. Doesn't that mean links2sd is actually using my internal storage

Reboot your phone. You should find that the free space has increased.
I rebooted and it's been stuck on the boot screen for 2 hours
Reboot into recovery and wipe both the cache and dalvik cache, then reboot again.
I rebooted and my internal memory is still the same. Also if the links trick the phone into thinking they're on the internal storage will they also trick applications like disk usage?

You can view the /data/sdext2 partition in DiskUsage. You can also check in Link2SD "storage Info".
In the settings for Link2SD, make sure Auto Link is turned on and also enable Link application file, Link dalvik-cache file, and Link library files.
Thanks for your help

Before you create a link to the SD card, the apps have to be on the internal memory, maybe you had them on the SD card and that was the problem.
Why what happens if they're on the sd card

Don't know, I've just read it somewhere. I'm sure nothing bad, maybe nothing and it will work properly, but all my app were on the internal memory before I created a link to the SD card, and everything works fine and I still have a lot of space on the internal.
I am also facing the reported issue and don't understand why does it keeps on reducing my internal memory and if I place my apps on internal memory and then link then what's the use since in one way or other I am consuming my internal memory.
Can anyone help.

Hey guys
I have a xperia m c2004, full root, permanently locked bootloader, on 4.3 jellybean. I have 1 gigabyte internal memory and 32 gigabytes sd card memory.
He is my question, am i able to download and install games directly onto my sd card. I cannot use gl2sd as that can only be used after you download and install. For example, i want to download gta 3 which is 1.2 gigabytes but i only have 1 gigabyte to start off with in my internal memory. Therefore i cannot download the game at all.
So is there a fix for my problem in my case?

Use Foldermount, find out the name of the folder where gta 3 installs itself and mount it, then install from play store like you normally would.

Oh well, you need to find out the name of gta 3 folder, make that folder, and then mount it.
