Move apps to SD
You can easily move your games to SD with "ES File Explorer"
but you need enable root acess to this application, so you can move all kind of data stored on your phone.
For non rooted phones, there are some applications that cant be moved to SD card
So the first step is obtain the root acess to your phone

No. Swapping is the easiest thing to do.

Provided u got class 6 or above microSD.
If not, swapping will cause slow boot up of apps.

I think It will better if you can afford class 10 to swap between external and internal storage..

Apps data to SD?

Hi everyone,
I'm using my note 2 with hawckish rom and I'm really happy with the performance, battery and everything in general.
I have a 32 gb Class 4 Sd card and I want to transfer some data from apps and games to it because I'm running out of space and I want to use it.
Now I know there is a way to use the Sd as the phone memory and the phone memory as an sd but as mine is class4 It's not fast enough to use it that way. I just want to transfer some apps and data from game to the sd.
I've downloaded some apps as App2sd but I cant do it so I would appreciate if you can help me please.
Thank you!
Desde mi Note II

Any help please

Link2sd from the play store works if your rooted but Im using directory bind myself as I find it easier to use

Check the i9505 Development forum. I believe most, if not all of their modded/stock ROMs do. Just be sure to flash a T-Mobile kernel after flashing a ROM from any other section that this one.

Nice thanks:good:

I heard the built in App to SD isnt very efficient and doesnt move all apps properly. But FolderMount is an app that does the job perfectly, and i highly recommend it. This one works on every ROM and ive used it to fill up my 64GB external SD card without any issues. All apps and everything moved wih this app function 100% properly.

Apps and games. You just mount the directories of the apps or games that are saved to your phone over to directories that it can automatically create for you or that you make on your SD card.

Doesn't do anyhing but cause issues. I already had files for madden12 on sd card after I used folder mount and switched files to ex card it asks me to download files again for the game. So it's useless to me. Waiting on elesbb app or somebody to come up with a switch mount script that works for all files.

Thats very strange because my apps did that with every single other app to sd card method, and would always make me re download, but this has worked for everything. Every gameloft game, every non gameloft game like Real Racing 3, works perfect. Even apps like skype and whatsapp or anything works flawlessly when i mount it to my external SD.

Did it ever give you a faulty module popup saying it needed to be patched? Cause that popped up every time i opened it for the first time and i patched it and then you have to reboot and then it works.

i would recommend trying again. When you first open and let it load it should give you that popup. Allow it to fix the fault, and then reboot the phone and it should work.

I tried it. It leaves the files in the original location (after selecting "yes" to allow them to be moved to the SD card). I confirmed they were on the SD card, but nothing was moved from the phone. What's the point? Doesn't free up any space. I tried deleting the files from the phone after they were "moved" to the SD card, and the app would not run. Error message about the SD card not being mounted.
What's the point if the files must be in both locations?? Saves no space.

From what I understand the app performs a mount with 'bind' option, the disk usage is not accurate as the system 'thinks' these files still reside on the internal sd, but are actually located on the ext. SD.

You guys should try GL to SD Root works better than folder mount or directory bind. I used it to move 7 gb's of game data to my ex card. Helped me out alot.

Oh. I see. A symbolic link, so if I delete file from what appears to be the phone, I'm actually deleting files on SD card. I get it. Thanks for clearing that up.

Moving apps to SD?

After flashing a couple of different 4.4 Roms (beanstalk and cm11) I am unable to move apps from internal to external SD card. Play store apps won't work and my internal memory is now so limited that I can only install a few apps. Anyone else with this issue and any suggestions for fix? Thank you...

titanium backup will help u

After doing some digging with Root Explorer, I found my phones data hidden in root/data/media/android and ended up manually cutting and pasting pictures, etc. to my sdcard 1 (external). That freed up some space!

Could be kernel related and/or format related. Works fine with flars kernel and any sense rom with my exFAT-formatted SDcard, does not work so with GPE and flars GPE kernel on this SDcard.
Usually after installation FolderMount will do a check on your SDcard and offer you to reboot your device if changes are necessary. After reboot it should be good to go.
Else you should read here: Mounts2SD

At the beginning you select what folders you want moving to sdcard, you.can use the built in app analyser which shows what folders take the most space, also when you buy premium you can mount almost anything, I even mounted the full internal sdcard to the external but it's not recommended
No it does not format sdcard, the app also fixes android permission for 3rd party apps to write to external sd

Using flar2s kernel as well on AR HD 5.0. Formatted my sd card too and tried again still no go. Currently having a read of the linked thread you gave me. Additional info, I'm S ON and using a 64gb card.
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Just to let you know using folder mount I've mounted my whole internal sdcard to my 64gb exfat uhs class 10 microsd card and its working flawlessly I copied a file to my internal sdcard and it actually saves it to the external card. So to some up, apps get installed on internal memory and all data that usually goes in the internal sdcard is actually moved to the external storage

How did you get it to mount the whole internal sd? I've been trying to get the whole internal mounted, and it just keeps saying the selected folder is the whole folder, please select sub directories and won't let me continue. Or did you do it for each separate sub directory.
