[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.

Complex External SD Problems

I have had this problem for ages now, and I haven't seen anyone with similar issues. Basically, I can't copy large amounts of data to my external sd because my phone crashes.
What works:
- mount external sd card on all ROMs
- mount internal sd card on all ROMs
- copy to external sd card on gingerbread ROMs
- copy to internal sd card on all ROMs (GB+ICS+JB)
- placing the external sd card in an adapter, and copying files via laptop card reader
What doesn't work on ICS and JB ROMs:
- copy to external sd card from internal sd card
- copy to external sd card via usb
- copy to external sd card over wifi (using es file explorer)
- copy to external sd card via usb while in recovery
* I am able to copy small files. But when I copy more than about 16mb, it fails.
** Example: Copy single 4mb mp3 will succeed. Copy folder of mp3s will fail. Copy 40mb flac will fail. Copy 100mb video file will fail.
How it fails:
Copying speed slows down, then the phone slows down and freezes. A hard reboot is necessary.
What I have tried:
As mentioned, everything works great on GB ROMs. Problems only occur on ICS and JB ROMs. I have tried the following:
Dark Knight, CM9, Slim ICS, CM10, Helly Bean, Slim Bean. Tried Semaphore and Devil kernels.
Currently on Slim Bean + Semaphore.
Bump?

My base ROM is SlimBean 2.2 which I'm using with Semaphore kernel.
I've been caught like this in the past! The external card is called 'emmc'.
By the way, don't forget to make a backup copy of your IMEI (found in 'efs') just in case you lose it during flashing.
It turned out to be a faulty external SD card. I have replaced it and everything is 100% working.

[Q][TW JB] "Move to SD card" works only with actual external SD card?

I may have been living under a rock and just recently switched to TW JB ROMs.
Is it now impossible to move apps to the INTERNAL storage for all JB TouchWiz ROMs?
On RocketROM (ICS 4.0.4) it was possible to press MOVE TO SD CARD without having an actual SD card inserted and it would treat the INTERNAL STORAGE as an EXTERNAL SD card and move the requested app, now this operation is impossible without an external SD card.
Hence the next question would be:
Is there a way to switch the mount points for the external and internal storage on JB TW ROMs?

[Q] External MicroSD Card not recognized?

Hi,
I own a Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000. It is rooted and running both a custom rom and a custom kernel. It runs:
Custom Rom: ElectRom V2.0 ICS 4.0.4 for Galaxy GT-i9000
Custom Kernel: Devil Kernel or Devil2_0.79_i9000_CFS_BLN_VC_XL_bm_20120501
Situation:
I have an external 16GB MicroSD card inserted in the device and I want to move apps to that external sdcard, but when I went into Settings>Apps>On SD card I found that it only had about 2GB of memory. I downloaded Storage Analyser to see what was going on. I saw it marked as /sdcard, but the external memory sdcard is labeled /emmc. It seems that my phone recognizes my internal memory card as the sdcard instead of my 16GB external sd card.
My questions are: is this with android or my phone or even the custom rom? I tried flashing another kernel which is Devil2-0-64-i9000-CFS-BLN-CMC-XL-20120405 and it detects my external sdcard memory fine which is is 16GB of memory. I'm not sure if this is with the kernel.I also see in Settings>Storage that it appears fine as an external sdcard with 16GB of memory.
I've included screenshots of the Settings>Apps>On SD Card and of Storage Analyser
