Hi all,
I got my son a HTC Desire 510 for his birthday a little while ago. Its come to the time where his phone ran out of space.
I got a 32GB SD Card, i've removed all the photos and videos and got them on the SD Card. Ive tried to App2SD type apps and they just redirect me to the system "move app" function.
This doesnt work very well and doesnt really move the apps to the SD Card.
Do i have to root the phone to get this to actually move the apps over to the SD card ( is there a guide for this ) and ( does rooting the phone stop apps like spotify and amazon instant from working due to the rooted phone )
or installing cyanogenmod for the htc desire 510.
Please can someone lend some advice ?
Thanks in advance.

i am using the cyanogen mod and have been installing apps to my sd card thru "managing applications". However, i found out that not all of the data is being transferred and some are still left on the internal phone storage. As u guys alr noe, the milestone has very little phone storage, so my phone storage are still quite full at times.
I've seen threads regarding partitioning the sd card so to install the apps to it. Does this really work? I mean is it better than the one mentioned above?
Can someone help with this? I'm new to partitioning so can anyone help by giving step by step instructions, or simply just justify whether this whole partitioning thing works.
Thx in advance
You may give Titanium Backup a try - it can force-move apps from internal memory to SD and vice versa. Long-tap onto the app-> move to sd (or similar, got a german one )
//EDIT: partitioning the sd card is called "app2sd" - there're scripts for this, but with memhack etc. I have enough memory for the moment, so I don't use it
Hi,i bought Ace 2 yesterday and i am trying to play some hd games on it,but i have a problem.If i put data directly on my sd card from my pc,it asks me to download the data via wifi on my phone memory.So i was wondering how can i make it download the games data on my sd card instead of the phone memory?And how can i run those games from sd card and not from the phone memory?
Please do not tell me to root my phone,cos before this one i had htc one v and wildfire s and all the games ran perfectly well from sd card and not from the phone memoryand it also downloaded all the data on the sd card...
So how can i fix this?
Thanks in advance
See... Every game have its own path to place SD Data
Peace

Hi there,
I recently got an 32 gb sd card but have just realised that apps such as Deezer will only use the phones internal phone storage.
I think my only option is to somehow get the phone to use the SD card as it main memory - will this work? Will I have to root my phone?
Thanks
...also, what would be the easiest way to root the phone? Will motofail2go be the best way and should it work with Jelly Bean?
thx
mount sd
Ok thats easy, what i used was this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928509 (only works on ics) and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2123369 (onlt works on jelly bean) just make sure to have recovery installed. Those are for root. And for how mount sd card i used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2123369 (just look for your model)
thanks - but I think you copied in the wrong link for the sd card part?
so I rooted and used this tool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2022727
and it worked...(I see 30gb data through camera/deezer etc)
however...
I can no longer access my Settings!! any ideas!? It just says settings cannot be loaded
sorry..i can access settings...i just can't access the storage part of it...should i be worried?
If it won't cause any other issues, I can live with it...
Hello,
So I have an xperia Z with 16gb of internal memory and about 11gb usable and a sd card with 64gb, so the problem is I have used all that space internal with games and I can't transfer apps to external sd card (thats one of the reasons why I got a 64gb card so I could install games on it but turns out I can't) you used to be able on older phones like I had an lg optimus black and transferred apps to sd easily, so is there a way to transfer apps to sd or not I tried gl to sd which didn't work the phone just reboots when mounted and tried alot of other apps but the same thing happens and its not straight forward lol, the other question is will they allow apps to external sd when 4.4 is out? If so, I don't mind waiting lol
Also my phone is 4.3, rooted, locked boot loader and have dual recovery 2.7.78 and stock
I don't want to partition the sd either

almost of android device disable this feature (app to sd) after android 4.0 (ICS)
so it won't back on 4.4
u r root and u can find an app in play.store to mount ur sd-card and then install app in it.
so search little bit
:good:

Hey guys, I am a gamer and i wanna play games on my phone, the difficulty am getting is the storage. I need a way of transferring the obb folder location to the sd card that way i can play many games with enormous space on the sd card. Please, if anyone here has a way (without rooting) share with rest of us.
You can try Link2SD app. But it requires you to root the phone and make a second partition on your SD card. Try to read as much as you can about Link2SD because if you mess up you might lose all of your files on your SD card or even on your phone. Sorry but I don't know a way to do this without root.
