Is this possible yet? Im very curious...? I read on a fairly old post that because we do not get full access that it was not possible however i understand nothing stands in the way of dedicated xda developers achieving a goal...

You can run most apps from the /sdcard partition, that gives you about 11 more gigs..
Yea i know some apps can run from the sd but ive also noticed if you have an app on the sd card and an icon to it on your desktop when u reboot or mount/unmount sd card they are removed and you have to put them back..... I know this is because during the initial scan it doesnt find the app so it throws out the shortcuts...

do u mean "moving apps to SD card" or backing up apps?
backing up apps: no effect on system performance. this is used only to backup to reinstall/restore later.
moving to SD: it could slow down a bit. I don't see a need for this on captivate, since captivate has so much more memory available for system and data, compared to a lot of other devices.
It would have no effect on speed. Lime previous poster said, you ha e plenty of resources available.

Use a file manager? Windows drag n drop?
Peasy.
Thank you for the answer But do you know how to set the phone to save for example music on the external sd card?

It's not the phone you must set but each app in their settings menu.
You can do the same for internet browser etc..
Wherever they are multimedia files are automatically detected.
I have tried with the apps... but i can't figure out how to for example move my songs from the internal to the external sd card by my stock music app.
Sorry for my bad english
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
You ca'nt, the music app doesn't move anything. It just scans the SD card and displays what it finds.
Alright thank you So if i want to move my songs then i have to do it "manually" by the pc, right?
Best regards
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
Or with an app like Astro
It is better to do it on computer, simple drag and drop and more reliable
Ok, thank you all for the help

ok so this is a simple question i know but conflicting topics have made me post this
i have 1gb system memory
5gb phone memory
29gb of sdcard space
So in short.... WHY CANT I MOVE ANYTHING TO MY ext_SD(the removable one) CARD I HAVE A CLASS 10 32GB SD CARD IM NOT ABLE TO UTILIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*UPDATE EDIT=So looks like the culprit is yet again a phone company making mods to android
+1 to Close the open source!! and go back to google phones.. LG, MOTO, HTC, they all just bloat the sh** out of the phone and take away the modding capabilities
so if anyone has any advice on how or what i can move to my 32GB Ext_SD card... please let me know
I have no problem moving all as compatible apps to the as card. Some apps just don't have that option though.

Some of the games and such are adapted to save on sdcard
Look through o3d forum

OK, I have a quasi solution for you I just thought about. /sdcard is internal and /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ is the your transflash card. Most apps are made to save data to /sdcard which does become an issue when some of the kickass games like shadowgun download 250MB plus of data plus all of your roms and media. What you could do, I gather, is move the directories like those game data directories to /sdcard/_ExternalSD/ and then crate a symlink to it with the same name in sdcard. It's probably what I'LLC do when this last GB is gone, lol.

That's a good idea just put them in the extra SD through the computer or if I can move it with astro maybe ill try that
Hopefully at least I can move my roms since they are the biggest space taker

No, he's talking about the external SD card...as in the card that you can pull out that stores your pictures and videos on. When you move an application on this phone to the SD card, it actually moves it to internal SD application storage. This is my second thrill and neither will move apps to the external SD card.
When you click on apps2sd app and move an app watch and see that your external SD card memory doesn't change at all.
You can edit vold.fstab to,switch how the cards are used

Okay. Continue. I'm listening.
I have a 32 gig SD card I bought specifically to be able to move a ton of apps there. I haven't been able to do so and would love to rather than being limited to the 8 gigs on the phone.
Hope this helps

That method did not work, did not even recognize my sd card ("internal" or "external")
I can post that file when I get home tonight and see if anyone can get them edited.
Okay. Just tell me if I'm wrong. What I'm referring to and what I think the OP was referring to was that external SD card that you buy at the store where you store your music and pictures on. The SanDisk.
The other storage is internal storage, then there's system memory.
Cm7 fixes this.

Is there an application that will allow you to move applications to your EXTERNAL SD card. as the internal card fills up very fast. I wish i knew a developer to make an application that you could use to choose what SD card you want to move the application to.
Anyone know of a way please let me know
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
how many apps do you have installed to fill up the 1GB for apps let alone the 12GB storage.
You might want to email one of the deva on the market that have made a app2sd app it would be a very simple modification.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
I know it is simple that is why i can't believe you can't do it already. But i think it would be for us ROOT users only. But i am not sure.
It is just sad that apps can't be moved to External SD and that it is only for media

Well i emailed the developer they say that there is nothing anybody can do except Google
