If you are rooted you could use foldermount for free https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount
And move large directories like asphalt 8 and 7 or GTA III and Vice City.
If you dont know how to use it just follow my guide

Link2SD does not move the Huge GB folders like Folder Mount does ...
better off following Jackaros guide and getting the paid version of folder mount
regards

You could try Mounts2SD https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.mounts2sd&hl=de
its free (but you have to have a rooted phone).
I am using this on a old HTC Desire and it works great.

How to install games on internal sd?

Hi, I have the CM7 room (temasek) installed on my phone. I would like to know how I can install games date on internal SD? Because all the games which I install go to external SD.
Settings > CM Settings > Application > Check Use Internal Storage, reboot...

Thanks, but all the games which I have instaled on external SD won't work more. There's no way to put some games on sd internal and external in others?

You can find their storage folder and move that.
You can also use GL to SD app to bind folder paths.

Thanks. I used this app when I used the stock room. Not exist no form to choose the SD which I want install?
No.
Normaly Android has only Phone memory and SDcard.
But our phone is equiped with addidtional SD (if you insert it).
But now you can choose what sd you can use and have 2 ways:
Bind path or change mount points.
Cheers

Make external Storage Internal (more game space)

so we all know we have 11gb about or so free for internal storage on JB .. and your external storage is however big your sdcard is (mine is 64gb) well with all these new games that are coming out with .obb files that are HUGE 600+ MB or more .. is there anyway to make the external storage actually internal storage so that when you click move to SD it really moves to your SD card and not internal storage.. i know there are some apps in the appstore that might do this.. but the real question is do they work for Jellybean. because the mounts are different now.

This one worked for me on JB leak. I was able to move the data of NFSMW & Modern Combat 4: Zero Hour to ext sd & play :good:
I m using directory bind. Move your data to ext sd and bind in internal sd.

App2SD can do that but it is not always possible or recommendable.
For data files i think and depends on the app (i.e. i can set Open Street Map to store all downloaded maps on external sd card)
Best apps to use are link 2sd and folder mount these both need root.
Because of the way the internal memory is mounted as SD card no app2sd will work as they see internal as sdcard.
Link 2sd you set a partition by connecting card to PC without phone use any free windows partition tool set size and make sure it is set as primary, use fat32
Then when you restart phone with ext sdcard inserted link 2sd will ask that a new partition has been detected and how to mount select fat32 then from in app select which files are in the internal memory and select to make link. they are then moved to ext sdcard and free up space.
When you download games they are harder to move data as they look to particular folder only. Folder mount links these files so you can move to ext card and games still works.
Both are free on the play store.

so i need to download link2sd and folder mount? is there any workaround without using these two apps?
Don't know but you won't get any apps to ext sdcard or data without using these or similar.
They load at boot and are active, just click app, game and it will run smoothly.

I guess no... you can't do without root bro..
Wait till root is available for your c5303:highfive: & Then you can move it.
Or you can flash 284 firmware & root it, if you need it urgent.
tanx,im waiting for v16 to root my devise,but can i root then move the app then unroot my devise?cuz i root my galexy note 2 and my battery was drain too fast

Not really as the apps need root to work and every time you boot up you will lose function of apps if you unroot.

Rooting doesn't cause battery drain.

Help please, can't move app to sd card

HI, I rooted my device and I download the app "move 2 sd" and he said that my device does not support .
And I have a sd card .
What I have to do ?!
Thanks .
Use foldermount to link any folder from internal sd to external sd.
Use link2sd to link installed apps to a 2nd partition on your external sd.
Is this the easiest method? I used apps2sd on all my other phones without issues. Can't move any apps to SD following any method on hete

Those other phones probably had its own partition for sdcard. Now it's most often in same partition an internal storage (/data) and emulates an SD (/data/media) . That's why it doesn't work as it used to do.

You can use Foldermount, Link2sd, and probably others if you look for them.
I'm using Foldermount to have the WhatsApp folder on my external Sdcard.
GL2SD
Some phones like Huawei phones have the option for this.
For our phone, u can use "GL2sd" app! I've already used folder mount and link2sd, but I really prefer GL2Sd. (Try it to understand what I'm saying ) Btw it requires root access
