Apps on Main Memory or SD? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

Hello All,
Where can I install my apps (Skype, Resco Explorer, Acrobat etc...) to give them the fastest loading time whilst not tieing up valuble resources for playing movies and audio?
I'm sure some of you have done some tests. Any results would be great.
I have o2 XDA Mini S with 2gb san disk SD.
Thanks
Ben

Generally, I would recommend to have all small programs to be installed in the memory and have large program/data to be in the SD card.

What do you do with a 1GB SD card?

I'm debating on whether to get a 1GB SD card or a smaller size. Besides the obvious such as watching movies and storing MP3s.
What eslse do you guys do with your 1GB SD card?
dumping maps on it for tomtom for instance
Install my games, MP3, movies to it.
I have favourite cab files, mp3, movies and audiobooks on mine.
Sooner or later you will fill the 1GB card.
You can never have enough memory!

Besides the fact that you're off topic, I think it's important to keep this forum free from political statements.
Loads of stuff goes on the card. Believe me if you buy smaller, you'll regret it. Go for the 1GB.
TomeRaider and Wikipedia, which takes up over 500 Kb. I love being able to carry the entire wikipedia with me wherever I go!
Even 1GB is tight.
You have to watch which pictures/which maps/which MP3s/which books you install.
It's no Free-For-All!
With 1GB, you have manage your memory carefully.
It's not like the old days!
Depending on what you're storing. I have my MP3s, movies, data files (pocket word, Excel, PDFs, pictures).
I'd agree xda-rocks -> you can never have enough memory.
If you can wait .. when the prices drop, pick up a 2GB.. or 1GB x2. Either way, i only had my 1GB card for 3 weeks, running out of space already
movies... songs... all sort of stuff...
storage and memory are never enuff
ebooks.... thousands of ebooks
and music, and pictures. i have the camera save all the pictures and video to the gig card
Well hell, IF I had a 1gig storage card, I would use it to store 3 days of backups, that would round to about 180mb. then use the rest for movies, music, and file sharing when I have my webserver running on my BA at the hot spot.
PS. if you get a card that large, invest in a usb card reader on your main computer. Makes life that much easier.
cheers
how do you organize it all? is there a program you use to organize the program installations?
i use it first to store 3 backup files (3 weeks' worth), a whole bunch of movies, games, data files, and programs. have to agree, you can't have enough memory =)
the backup files really are essential. and i usually make sure i have at least 2 of them on hand, in case the latest one is unstable.

I have a 1GB 66x SD card, with the i-mate ROM update and WMP10. I now sync to "Napster To Go" and have a great little media center.
Also store TomTom maps, all additional software is installed to the SDcard too.
As soon as I find a 2GB 66x card, i'll get one of those.
I have recently got a 2G card with my Navigon 5 Update
So I store normally a 250Mb Card of Germany, now for Holidays I stored a 1Gig card of Europe on it, removed some MP3s and of course have 3 or 4 Weeks of Weekly Fullbackups (sprite backup) on it.
So I have normally over 1Gig of MP3s on it , one map for navigon and some games and my backups...

Install app2sd it allows you to move apps to the sd

app2sd doesn't work on xz
I installed app2sd and it didn't work, subsequently read a thread that said it's because of the way sony configured the internal memory, not a problem with the app.
You can change where music, downloads, video and photos are saved, from internal card to external card, via various settings.
But I think you'll find apps have to be installed to the internal card and run from there.
Unless one of the talented xda developers has already created a mod to overcome the problem

[Q] _ Moving installed apps to SD Card, how ?

Searched the forum and did not see anything directly for Nook HD/+ or CM so im here...
I would like to move some programs (more so games) to a SD Card and just pop the card in when i want to play the games.
Is this possible ?
Would this work for "fast paced" graphic games like race car games (reading off SD card) ?
Could i use symlinks form the games org install location and point them to the SD Card ?
_
I wouldn't mind knowing about this either, I have titanium backups which usually has an option to move things to SD and there isn't any option for the Nook.
About the question for racing games, I doubt there would be any issue as I've had all my games installed to SD on my old Evo 3D and I never noticed a degradation in game play. Perhaps slightly longer load times, but I can't say I noticed any.

I use GL to SD to move game data to the SD card, and it works for most games just fine. I have a 32GB Sandisk Ultra, and I am running CM 10.2.

Note 5 32GB and low space for app and games ... can we install apps data on USB OTG?

hi guys.... i bought note 5 32gb .... but this is horrible without microSD....
yes i know we can save our images and videos on wireless Hard drive and cloud storage....but what about applications and games... can i some how change location of my apps and games data; like we used to do in sd cards?
what about changing a destination of camera saving directory?:crying:
thanks a lot
Honestly, I would root the device, install a custom rom. Take out all bloat ware and save all pics and music to a cloud based storage. Apps and games would be saved to internal memory unless you don't mind carrying around the external sd card.

Is there any way to force all downloaded movies to be stored only in my 128GB SDcard?

I have one New BLU-R1/16GB and also a BLU-R1/8GB, and I have installed on each of them 128GB MicroSD Memory Cards.
Neither of my 2 BLU cell phones is rooted, and after selecting to use my MicroSD card as an SD-Card, I successfully moved all my APPs, except the systems ones, to this SD-Card...
But although I have 128GB of memory in each cellphone, I noticed that if I download a movie using the "Amazon Video" APP, this file is always stored in the internal memory and not in the SD-Card memory.
Does anyone know if there is any way to force all downloaded movie files to be stored only in this 128GB memory, using the Amazon Video APP?
Thanks in advance!
I have noticed that the latest update v4.13.1 (build 14562) of the Netflix APP, allows to save the downloaded movies on the external SD card, anyone can tell if this is possible on the BLU R1 using the Amazon Video APP?:
"- SD Card support.
New "Download Location" app setting that lets you control where to save downloaded content: Internal Storage or SD Card (new permission requested)"
As I mentioned before, I would like to force all downloaded movies, using the Amazon Video APP, to be stored only in my 128GB External SD Card... So I would greatly appreciate if someone can help me with this matter...
Thanks in advance!
