Please use search before you post (there are already many posts about this asked before, including mine )
zolaisugly suggested to me to use FolderMount to move folders to the external SD card.
You can "mount" specific folders to make the phone think it is on the internal SD but in fact it is actually on the external one.
It is a great app, you should try it! Thank zolaisugly for this suggestion.
Alternatively, if you want to swap the SD cards completely (which is not as smart as the suggestion zolaisugly gave), you can use this by ivan-68.
Cheers!

How did you use directory bind on sp? It didnt seem to work on mine. Folder mount does work, but i dont have account to go premium yet. Vold.fstab failed, maybe FUSE doing funny business with it.

On JB 4.1.2 you can't without root. In case you got root, use Folder Mount to move your game files to external SD card

If you mean without an app that needs root and will transfer you files to SDcard, the answer is nope

There is also Link2SD(Still requires root and to partition your sd..As it's more advanced you should not try it but keep it in mind )
I'd think the XSP's 5.4GB free memory should be enough for playing games. I got 100+ apps and am still on 2.3GB without Foldermount

to you I recommend using foldermount, because link2sd needs a serie of preparations before you can move your files. Foldermount only needs root acces and not an extra partition

Foldermount is the best way.Now if you want to swap internal with external you can do it using the script...
(I would recommend it since foldermount is more safe)

When you've moved your files, there should be a white or green pin right next to your game name. If it's white, tick it and it will mount the folder on sd card (and will turn green)

[Q] No real external SD slot?

when i try and use an app for apps 2 sd it says this phone docent have a "real" sd card when i have all my music on one and I've put card in it. am i missing something or is something wrong. Im using a rooted XP stock 4.1.2 c5306 any hall is appreciated
"real sd" mean the intern sd. The external sd can be use with root and folder mount. But what u want move on the ex sd? Music u can move with a file manager or a computer. Apps u must use from the intern and game data u can move with folder mount .

You can transfer apps to sd using link 2sd and folder mount for larger files as game data and game obb files. I made a tutorial for both of those things

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

[Q] [4.4/KK][10.5.A.0.230] Android/data and obb folder on external sd card

Hi There,
I updated yesterday to KitKat (Commercial And Journalists version).
Since then I noticed that on the external storage Android creates folders such as Android/data, Android/obb and fills them up with several root folders for apps though they are not used. Within those root folders KitKat creates then a files, cache or files/cache folder which remains empty. In the obb section the root folder remains empty. Same is with DCIM which I don't need as I use internal storage for my photos.
Our XZ has enough internal storage which I use for all such things and I don't need to fill up my sd cards, which usually have media on it. If I use that card later in another device such as in my car I have that silly folders appearing...
Is there any chance to get rid of those empty directories and prevent Android doing so as it was no issue up to 4.3?
Thx for help!
Best Regards,
Andreas

Interesting idea... but it does not work. The app fc and only starts once I moved the obb part from external to internal.
If anyone has more ideas. (-:

App FC means the obb not found(sometimes the app say need to download bla bla...) So you should put them is internal memory.
If you installed any apps or games so Try delete all files and folders in android/data in your external card. After that if you see any of your apps is back as you installed them first time (means data wiped) so the apps data path is now in your external card
If you tried to put the OBB in the both external and internal and the app didnt worked so that means there is something wrong in your rom...

oh, it works if the obb is in internal memory... but not external. This was in reply to your idea.
If I delete all folders (and there are only folders but no files in it) the system recreates them by time...

Thats really strange problem but flash your rom or try another ftf that all what i can say now:cyclops:
Any chance that you may have found a fix for this in the past year? My i9100 does the exact same thing and I've scoured the web to try and fix it. Cyanogenmod 12 / 5.1.1 and I have completely the same problem, every app creates an empty folder under Android/data or Android/obb on my external sd. For no discernible reason I can see.
