How to move game files to EXT SD and the game playable in EXT SD

Provided you're running Froyo there is the option to move to SD card in Settings>Applications>Manage applications and selecting the individual application(s) that you're wanting to move to your external SD.

That only moves save games and such not actual data, no offense but people should try to do what they post first before giving the wrong information.
=(
so did anyone actually moved their whole game data to EXT sd and playing?
please share
Can this issue be fixed by symlinking the data folder to extenal_sd?
Can internal SD be swapped with ext sd
wrong post sorry guys.
there is a way of that
i saw in application section, i cant search for it know but u can find it.
there is script running on windows, patching the apk file. I tried and succeed with asphalt6 and brother in arms 2 (only gameloft games)

[Q] SDcard question(SGS)!

I just bought a SD card(8gb) to my SGS but my problem is that, when i'm about to download for example the sd card files(not the apk file) for Dungeon Defenders:First wave it says that there is no room for it on my internal SDcard so how do i install the files on my external sd card(2.5 GB left)? Is it something wrong with my sd card or is it just a setting? Because it must be possible to install the SD files to the external SD card and not just the internal SD card?
PS i got a Micro SD hc.
I am pretty sure you can't dl those files to an external, only internal. Try moving other files to your external to free up some space on your internal.
Thats what I have recently learnt,
its misleading to have a name apps2sd & not able to move apps to external sd.
Apps2sd, does mean moving an app to your external sd, just not the file for gameloft and other games requiring extra dl.

I don't understand what you mean, does apps2sd move the apps which don't require extra dl to external sd?
I don't think so as I cant move them to external by any means it only moves to internal sd partition.

can apps be installed straight to _externalSD?

seems like the only SD the phone sees for app storage is the internal SD.
you can't use externalSD for app storage/usage?
not that i can see i've tried to even go in and physically move games on to the sd card and then it wants me to fully reinstall the games so i don't think so i imagine its more for music and movies or thats what i use it for now anyways
i think it can't be install straight to external sd, but is there a script to switch so your external sd become internal, and internal sd become external

[Q] Copying app's downloaded data to external SD?

I've just downloaded Sims freeplay, but it downloads 600mb of downloaded data taking up a good portion of my internal SD. The game itself is installed to the external SD, just not the 600mb data.
I'm on my phone now so ive only been able to do about 15 minutes of searching. I've found app2sd, and link2sd, but as far as I know they don't transfer the android/data to the external as?
How can I do this?

Plug into PC and turn on USB mass storage mode then find the folder you are looking for and just drag it from one window to the other

Well I've already tried that. You mean creating "android/data" on my external SD and copying the folder to that directory? When I launch sims it says I need to download the data. I've also tried adding a shortcut with the same name in the internal SD directory just to see if it would go to the external SD, still no.
Some apps need to have data on the internal card for faster recall I believe

Anything else? I have 1.2GB left on my internal SD, this is enough for the downloaded data of 1 or 2 big games, while my external SD has lots of free memory..

You can't. The only ROM that will allow it is CyanogenMod.
OR until we can do data2sd.
It is possible to do this. Download an app called gl to sd from the market. It works great with transferring gameloft games to external sd. It can work with other games too but i've noticed it's more hit or miss with non gameloft games.

Weird SD Card Name on MM(6.0.1)

Hi,
My phone is installed by a pre-rooted MM rom and currently it's working welll without any problem.
But I found out one issue for sd card name.
internal memory name is under 'sdcard'.
sd memory(External) name is under 'storage/9016-4EF8'.
I think some app's data is not moved to sd card(External) due to that sd memory name.
For example, I installed "Day" app and data is saved both 'Internal' and 'Ext' in Link2SD app and App2SD app.
I checked file location for the app using 'Link2SD' but app's file location is still in the Internal.
Internal - Data(Data in Link2Sd) : /data/user/0/com.osmino.day
External - Data on SD Card(Data(Ext.) in Link2Sd) : /data/media/0/Android/data/com.osmino.day (Why internal???)
So I could not move data to Data(Ext.) because it's already recognized Data(Ext.) to extern SD card.
I think External SD Card file location would be like this "/storage/9016-4EF8/data/media/0/Android/data/com.osmino.day".
How can I change sd card and internal name or move to external sd card to move to external SD Card?
Do you have any idea?
Thank you.

There are several paths to the external SD card with MM
/storage/exfat_uuid
is probably the shortest.
Download a copy of root explorer and familiarise yourself with the new MM file structure, it's not complicated, it just has new names from LL.
Using apps to move other apps onto the SD card doesn't sound like a recipe for success.
Let the Sony app manager do it.
thanks for reply.
then how can i move data to real external sd?
my storage is not enough so i need moving.
i think some app try to install data in external sd. I think many apps try to find sdcard named. currently sd card is internal memory. and exact sd card name is storage/9016-4ef8. i think that's why my internal memory is not enough.

Take the SD card out, save the data on it, then format it
When you put it back in your phone and it asks you what to do with the SD card, DO NOT format as internal storage. This feature doesn't really work, or if you do get it to work. then it's really buggy and apps can't use it.
Once you have the SD card working, just use settings/apps/*your app* In the first bar down it will say where the app is stored and if you click on it, it will give you the option to move it.
