[Q] How to Place Games Data Folder in SDCARD1 (external sd card) - Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Can we place the Games data folder in the external Class 10 HC1 high speed card ? how to do that ? Because as far i know odb data is only recognized when placed in the internal memory.
Is there any way to do it without unrooting ?
Thanks.

1. Root your phone
2. Open google play
3. Download free gl to sd

Phone have internal memory which is seein as sdcard. External sdcard is known as ext_sd ot so. In this fall you can not move your apps to sdcard while these apps are already on it (internal sd). You can move your data to external sdcard and make symlink to it, or merge ext card with internal card. For both you need to have root. First idea its easier but you need to have two partitions on sdcard. Second will swap your internal sdcard with external. But its more to do.

You saved my life Thanks its working..

Nice one. I really didnt find this App before. That works for me too. But only for three games which I have already installed in my device. Dont work with Angry Birds
When I recieve my 32GB microSD card I will use Link2SD with second partition on SD Card anyway. But for know... I stay with gl to sd
Thanks.
Ok.
Where can i find in "gl to sd" option to copy game files back to internal memory??? Or I have to do it manually???

[Q] Moving Apps form Galaxy to internal SD is possible?

Hi I have upgraded my Galaxy S to Froyo with "official" firmware, everything is running ok, I also installed the OneClick LagFix (this change my quadrant from 892 to 1915) but now I only have 400Mb free in the phone memory, I would like to move some apps to the SD but I get the following error "Error moving app. There is not enough memory" (Possible this is not the correct message, i get this message in spanish )
I dont have a external SD, but I have 14Gb free in the internal SD, is not possible move apps to this memory?
Thx in advance
install Froyo, then you can run apps from External SD

yes, but all the apps needs to be re-installed and select External SD during install
or you can force them to External and hope it works with those 3rd party programs that moves apps to External SD
Thx AllGamers, I would like to install in the internal SD partition that have 14Gb free, because I don´t have external SD
Thx in advance
there are tons of 3rd party apps to choose from that helps you manage where you want your apps to go, check these out:

APPs into external SD card

Q. I can move an app to SD w/o problem but the data file that is consuming a large portion of my internal memo stays on internal SD. Is there a way to move the app and it's data to the SD?

I too have a 32Gb card installed.
You can move the apps and there are a number of 3rd party apps that will do this for you quickly or you can do it from settings in managing the applications. I found that this was not the space saving solution that I thought it would be.
It is the data that needs to be moved, e.g., DoggCatcher is my news reader and it had about 3Gb worth of data. Moving the app didn't save any space but using the setting in the program to move the data did the trick. Play around with moving a couple of apps and see what you get and check to see if the app will allow you to move the data to a new location.
Some apps simply stock pile a lot of data. My eBook program, Audible which I can't do without is another one - over 1.5Gb. I'll contact Audible about this one.
some times when you check on sites like AppsBrain
it will tell you if the App is App2SD compatible
meaning it can be isntall to SD also data store on SD
as mpierce said, it's pretty useless to force a program to SD, meanwhile the heavy stuff remains in the phone internals

Can everyone please read before replying?? He wants to move his apps to the INTERNAL SD (so do I) and NOT the external SD. This is not possible as far as I'm concerned. Got the same error as luishchorradas.
luischorradas said:
Hi
actually u cannot move ur apps to the internal sd card as internal sd card (16 gb) is only meant for media (videos, songs etc.) and if u want more 16gb for ur apps u will hv to put an external sd card (galaxy s supports 16gb) and ya if u move to sd it will move to external sd card.
Thnx

Thanx
Finally ... Thanx Coolfriend for you help
Sorry to resurrect an old thread. But I don't believe "move to SD" moves anything to the external SD card. The apps move to the internal SD card. Yes unmounting the SD card disables apps, but if you browse through the internal card, you'll still see them sitting there.
Me to, same problem, no google search helps :-(

sorry for necro'ing but it does indeed move it to the external SD, i've tried moving a couple apps with my Galaxy S to the, as it says, "move to USB memory" but as i check the free memory, it used the external SD memory, not the internal.

[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?
Sent from my LG-P920 using XDA
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.

[Q] primary additional SD

Hello, I am new in this phone and notice that internal SD is like main SD. I install some gameloft games(modern comabt 3 and asphalt 7 and etc) and all memory of 5.5GB internal SD is gone ;( but I have 16gb class 10 SD card, I put in phone, but still my phone storage games data and pictures and etc to internal SD. Can I make that my external SD 16gb would be main SD? I came from galaxy ace phone, and there was internal memory just 170~ mb, so games data was storage into my SD card. :/ Can I found some zip update to solve my problem? By the way I'm using CM7 nighties latest ROM.

try using app2SD application from playstore.....
but, just be sure if that works normal with your games.usually works well with apps.it will install ur apps to External SD.
else try using the CM7 based ROMs which allow you to choose the external SD card as main SD by default. I would recommend to try Stefan''s Hybrid 3.7 if you want to take the CM 7 route...
Hope it helps

You can change SD card mounting in settings! Perhaps in Settings,>App>debug and toggle out the internal SD as principal

shared internal storage, i think its a problem.
I find Directory Bind is a very useful little app for shifting app data onto the external SD card:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262
I found you have to check the "alternate dbase mgmt" option for it to work, but apart from that it works well to shift you big data directories wherever you want them.

Cant move obb of a game to sd card

Ive been trying to move a game to my 32 gb sd card, I have a rooted phone (clcokworks mod).
So I partitioned my sd card and made the partition ext2, it being a primary. Then I connected it to my phone, and downloaded the paid version of linktosd, I linked the data but it didn't move the obb which was taking up 2 gbs. It said quote" you devive has a primary external storage which is emulated from your internal storage"
If anyone has any idea how to fix this or tell me that you cant fix it, it would be appreciated.
Ps- I have already tried foldermount and obb to sd card. None of them work.

Link2sd won't move your obb/data to your ExtSdCard. The solution to this problem is GL to SD. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp

i dont think link2sd can move the obb files, they only move the apk and data files

Obb files are the game Data files. Or do you mean data like savegames?
You need two partitions on the external sd, one fat32 and one ext2/3/4, both marked as primary.
