So, now that we have Froyo we can move apps to the SD Card, I am guessing it means the External SD Card?
Should we use ROM Manager to Partition the Card so that we can do that or will the phone do it when we tell it to move the app to the SD card?
If we flash to a new ROM, and the APPs are on the SD Card are we like cool to go and have no need to back up APPs ever again?

I was wondering is their a way to put the rom into internal memory and the apps in the SD? If so how would I partition my SD card to do that?

I don't see how that thread helps..? I just want a partition with the apps not the rom
The rom is always on the internal memory, thats why its the rom. Your phone loads the rom files from the sd card onto your phone.
You have to partition your sd card first, that way your phone/rom knows where to store the apps.
Original question(s) seem to be solved.

I'm tired of my SD card getting corrupted. Is there a way to install apps to internal storage instead of the SD card? Is there a simple hack to fool Nook into thinking the internal is the SD card? Thanks!

There is a setting in CM7 to do that. By default it is "automatic" meaning the app decides where to go. You can change it to card only or internal only.
Some apps, even installed in the internal memory, for some reason, it REQUIRES the external uSD card installed in order to work. Other way to say is: some apps won't work if no uSD card plugged in.

Spend the $6 and buy Titanium backup for the nook and setup an account with dropbox.
Does anyone knows how to move/install your apps on the EXTERNAL sd card? i've got lots of maps and extra games' data on my phone..and when i move them on the external sd card,they are not recognized..
Please help me and other users with the same problem!
Which version of Android are you using?
If you're on ICS then you just go to Systems Settings - Apps. Then you select the app you want to move and you select, "Move to SD card".
I've been on numerous ICS Roms and it's always worked, I'm not sure about GB anymore (I haven't used one for 7 months now )
You can use an app like app2sd, or try to do this manually, like Lord_santa say
I tried both methods but it moves the apps on the INTERNAL sd card..but i want to move them on the EXTERNAL sd card( minisd card that you attach to your phone)
Hi, I want to buy a moto g, but I need to Know; is there any way to install apps on sd card by default on this Phone?
Apps only moves to sd card which are supported not all apps can be move to sd card. Remember when you move any apps to sd card widget of that app didn't work android limitation.

I know that, but is there any way to change this, Like rooting the device, CM12, or something else to use the sd card in the same way like the int.storege?
After installing CM12 on my Xperia V, I've moved some apps to my internal sd card (sdcard0), they work well and everything is fine.
Now when i insert external sd card to my phone , all apps moved to sdcard0 are disappeared, when i remove my external sd card and turn on my phone again the apps back again. I want to use my external sd card, can you help me?
Note: when i connect my ext sd card to computer i find android_secure folder.
Did it happen on any ROM u are using? Try to format sd card via pc and put it into ur phone and reinstall the apps with external card inserted in phone.

This is my first ROM.
I've tried formatting the sd card and the problem still not solved. The apps were installed on the external card before " by using Link2SD" but i want them on the internal storage
Note: When i try to move an app to sd card using normal app manager when the ext sd card inserted, they move to the ext card not sdcard0. so that's why i move them when ext card not inserted, they moved well but when i insert my sd card back they disappear.
