I want to move apps from internal sd card to external sites card. I go through the motions of moving and app and it shows that it was moved but when I look in the sd card folder I don't see the app. Am I doing something wrong? Is it not possible even though Titanium Backup did it and ICS is not recognising it?

I did it manually, search for the backup, then copy whole thing to sdcard.

Does insufficient storage mean 'USB storage' not enough'? Any way to solve this without root?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Other alternatives would be to move your apps from Phone to SD card (external memory card), every downloaded apps you have (look for it in Settings>applications>all, see if you can move the apps from Phone to SD card

But my device memory still has 202mb. The memory is 1g, I think this 'device memory' just part of 16g storage, is that correct?

if you are on stock rom.. u can uninstall some apps and free some system memory..
OP has a legitimate issue that has nothing to do with actual lack of space.
I had the problem before.
I cleared dalvik for the problem app under data/dalvik-cache.
That worked for me.

You can choose external sd-card to store in a lot of apps, but you can not set it to be the main,

So the sp does not support moving apps to the sd card. As a result of this, having the phone for a week I keep getting warnings to say the memory is over 75% full. Is there a way around this yet? I really like the standard Rom and hope I don't have to wait for custom roms.

Download Link2SD, moves all your apps and app data to your sd card and any future data will aswell, however you'll have to manually link every app.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
You need root to use these apps.
When using link 2sd you have to create a secondary partition on PC make it primary and use fat32 this is supported by stock.
You can link all apps to extsd
I use foldermount pro to move game data to extsd. As a result of using both these apps I have over 4gig free on internal.

Hi, well, i've been searching, well, googling also. How to change the default data directory where the game gets the resources to start the game but no results.
Why?
Well as i have the 8GB version of the SGSA, i have almost 4 GB of storage, right? Well. I also bought a 16GB SD Card to store big games like FIFA 12, NOVA 3, NFS Hot Pursuit, GTA III, etc.
Well, when i download the game, it asks to download it from the apk. Well, i do it, but the problem here is that it downloads to sdcard0/Android/data (internal storage), and i want it to download to sdcard1/Android/data (external). But when i start the game, it just requests to download the whole game again.
So, is there any way to change the direction of the directory where the game uses the resources to start? (From sdcard0/Android/data to sdcard1/Android/data) Help pls

For example you want the game data of game_xxx stored in /storage/sdcard0/Android/data/com.game.xxx linked to /storage/sdcard1/Android/data/com.game.xxx, you move the whole folder and type:

If i change the filesystem of the external sdcard what differences could there be? It's supposed to be now a flash storage partition (or something like that i understood)
(Yeah, another edit e.e):
I don't even have a computer :l is there any way to do what's mentioned in the OP without a computer?
Type "/storage" instead of "storage"
And if you want you can format your SD you can do it on cwm recovery

There is a simple method with FolderMount
It creates binds between 2 folders.
In short it's what @frapeti was giving you through manual terminal writing, in a nice GUI suite.
Before anything, thanks to frapeti and YMatrix helped me a lot, already needed it hehe

I meant moving the apk to external sd( creating apk link in /data/app and putting the apk on ext sd)
this isn't a big prob for us with 8/16 GB, but for those with 100-500 MB internal storage.

the question is how did you do it bro i can't figure out i have sandisk 16 gigs class 10 sd card..so pls tell me..
both of these apps Are free on play store.
Link2sd needs a secondary partition creating I used easeus free windows tools and set to primary. Then open app and select apps you want, then create link.
Folder mount works similar but you need to create a new folder then select which data files to copy across.
Search Google for the how to guides or xda how to use
Try clean master.

Link2SD is for those small apps that dont use /sdcard/android/data or /obb folders. FolderMount is for those huge /obb data and more. Use both for pushing all those files and apps to microsd.
