NEED ROOT
Force2SD lets you force most apps to move to SD card/external storage even when the system would not allow you to move them, thereby saving space in the app storage area. While Android as of version 2.2 introduced the feature that lets you move apps to SD card/external storage, it normally only allows the movement of applications explicitly marked by the developer as movable. Force2SD moves many applications not marked as movable.
You can also move applications back, and sort alphabetically or by apk size.
Version 1.06 allows much faster updating of the application list after the first time, as it caches application names. The speed is a reason to use Force2SD even if your apps can be moved with other movers.
Note 1: Applications moved to SD card / external storage will not get an on-boot signal when the device is booted up. So, do not move applications that need to perform some operations on boot. Of course, you should always be able to move these applications back if you're having problems.
As a bonus, if you don't want an application starting up on boot, you can use Force2SD to move it.
Note 2: After a reboot, it make take a while (even a couple of minutes) for the OS to show up the icons of apps that have been moved. That is normal--that's how the OS's apps-on-SD feature works.
And there is a lite version here that lets you move only three apps to SD.

Yes. Maybe SD Enabler can do it. Or you can just pull up a shell (adb or terminal) and type:
Code:
su
pm setInstallLocation 2
To return to the defaults:
Code:
su
pm setInstallLocation 0
I need this application,
Yes, it's still on Google Play.
I've removed the APK files of Drive Smart in Terminal Emulator. I can't seem to figure out how to remove Drive Smart from the Settings. My phone is rooted, I have Super User and Terminal Emulator. I am very new to Android and Linux world. Please someone help me with step by step instructions on how to remove Drive Smart from the Settings with apps I have. I've removed APK files of all bloatware and apps that I don't use. Is that all I have to do remove? What about the app data?
Hi
I just instaled emanon v7, and, after creating a sd partition i flashed Darktremor Apps2SD, in order to move the apps to the sd.
However I can only move the apps with a2sdgui, and it simply gives this error:
"A2SD script does not run properly, better do "a2sd check" in terminal emulator! Maybe your Version is below 2.7.5.2"
I checked the version and it is the 2.7.5.3
What do I do?
Please help.

I would, but according to this site (http://yagyagaire.blogspot.pt/2011/09/how-to-partition-sd-card-and-install.html#.UGNdsbJlQdA) the one I followed the tutorial on how to create the sd partition, it tells me that i can only use that app to do that, otherwise it wont work...
nothing is written on that page similar to "you cannot use any alternative"
so just try atleast

actually it says:
"After installing Darktremor Apps2SD don’t move your apps to sdcard either from Manage Applications Settings or by using app2sd pro or similar applications because it will ruin all your settings and your script will not work"
and: "you can either use commands in terminal emulator or download this APPS2SDGUI application from market and manage everything from there."
So I realy need that app working

Alright so I'm dealing with a X98 Air ll that is dual boot - Windows and Android.
Android has the problem of GOOGLE PLAY STORE is not working, like at all.
The developers are aware of this but only linked to a thread on this forum, here's the guide on how to solve my problem, supposedly:
http://www.teclast.com/en/Information/newspic/image141216.jpg .. Since I'm a newbie on forums I can't post images so heres the full guide provided by user Frontier:
Anyone having issues with Google Play Store - this applies to both Air 3G with the latest 2.0.1 update (will post more information later) and Air II - please apply this fix.
Your OS should be rooted in order for this to work (I used X98 Toolbox to root my X98 Air 3G, simply connect the tablet to the PC, double-click on 1_Toolbox.bat and press 'E' on the menu).
- Download the files from here.
- Copy the .apk files to a folder on your microSD card.
- Go to Settings > Apps and uninstall Google Play Store.
- Install using the supplied .apk's the following (in this order): Google Play Services, Google Play Store and Link2SD.
- Go to Link2SD, find Google Play Store > Actions > Convert into system app.
- When the conversion is complete, reboot the tablet.
You should find that Google Play store works now, if you still have issues clear ALL it's data and re-enter your account information.

Okay so, this guide is really vaguely written and really hard to understand.
First off, connecting the tablet and downloading the files, running 1_Toolbox.bat and pressing E only refreshes the bat window. It doesn't give any confirmation or anything.. So I guess I move on ?
1) I downloaded the files.
2) I put the .apk files on the microSD card.
3)THERE IS NO UNINSTALL Google Play Store. No applications under "App". None. Zilch. Zero. I reset to factory settings and still no app to uninstall.
4) Did I miss a part where you put the microSD into the tablet? Because I did that but the tablet doesn't register it. Do I install it from the PC?
5) The MicroSD isn't registered, under Storage -> it also doesn't give me an option to browse the microSD.
In general, this whole guide is really written vaguely and written by, and to, someone who has development knowledge.
For a noob (At least to developming) this guide is REALLY bad.
Can anyone help me explaining what I should do ?

At least its a guide and "could be improved a little bit". If google apps are system apps already you can't uninstall the apks without a dedicated app. Titanium Backup (e.g. for uninstalling system apps) and Total Commander(File manager e.g. for browsing sd card) are very usefull. Just copy the needed apks to your phone's storage and open them to install. You don't need to use a micro sd card for it

Do you know where precisely these apks have to be stored ? Picture of available folders. I'm not sure where to place, or run, the .apks (For Titanium Backup / Total Commander)

I have a folder called APKs on my sd card. Just create a folder "APKs" to have all apks in one place. If you open the apk files in android they will be installed to the right direction.

you can use internal storage for the APKs. Have you tried Total Commander to access your sd card?

Thanks for the quick replies. Sorry for noobish questions.
I made a folder called APKs and put both Total Commander and Titanium Backup. Now I want to run Total Commander to access SD Card but I'm not sure how.

Has your phone any kind of file manager or may be a app called "documents" installed to open folders or files in your storage? If not you can enable "USB debugging" and install any apps easily using Android Commander from your computer while your phone is connected by a usb cable.

Ahh now we getting somewhere. I am learning a lot of things. I had an app called file explorer - from there, I could see what's on the internal and what's on the SD. From there, I installed Total Commander and Titanium Backup.
Total Commander works and gives me a great outlook of what's on the SD cart and internal.
Titanium Backup seems like a weird app. I don't think I can do anything because I don't have it rooted (?? EDIT: Pic ). I think I have to follow this guide, it's a ROM (??) that I have to install. Once installed, or the bios flashed (??) I will have to use Titanium Backup to uninstall Google Play Store I presume ?
Thanks for the help so far!

I thought you were already rooted as the guide you used before told that your phone needs to be rooted to fix the play store. I have to do a little research how to root your android.
EDIT: Use iROOT

Okay, first I tried to do it by downloading it and running it from PC. I opened debug mode, let it download, etc, and on the phone it opens a chinese app.. I did uninstall some apps, but a lot remain.
So I tried to download the .apk manually and that resulted it in trying to root as well, but it fails to root and just returns to chinese text.
I still fail to root my device
EDIT: Trying something
Using this guide I made it work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL-SV8UatOU&feature=youtu.be
