The maps one would need to use with their Navigation software on the phone, my X10 i bought second hand doesnt have maps and thats why Garmin mobile isnt working so i want to copy the maps stored on my new X10 to the SD card on the X1 so that Garmin Mobile XT can work

please delete all hidden folders on the sd card (they start with ".foldername")
of course make backup before.
you might need to redownload some apps then.
This is caused if you had apps in a previous version moved to sd.
how do i delete them if they are hidden???
thank you
The file explorer on the rom shows them or use root explorer. Or in windows set show all files (google how to show hidden folder on windows)

I am still gettin the same message that i dont have enough space on sd.
Should i format my sdcard?
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
First i would suggest to deinstall the apps which are already on sd. Then format sd card (make sure to only have 1 partition).
Then download from market and reinstall the apps. Then move to sd.
This is how i managed it.
(you can goto settings,applications,application administration and click on the sd tab and deinstall apps)

Sd as default app location

How do I set my sd card as my default save as spot for apps?

Ps I have root if that helps at all...

I did it using Root Tools from the market. Hope it helps.

Well, I would recommend Link2SD. Pretty much automated and trouble-free.
Note: You need a second partition - ext2/3/4 or FAT32 (not really recommended) on your SD card for this one.

How to create ext2 partition???
Sent from my LWW. Cheers, Its Legend, wait for it, DARY!
If u unlock the bootloader,it is much easier to root ur phone without any risk by flashing custom karnel.but u still can root ur phone.but u have to downgrade ur firmware version to .58. Coz .62 firmware is not rootable.

Very simple...if u flash custom karnel then go to cwm and in advance option u can find a option calling partition sd card.just partition ur sd card through it.
Another way is using ur pc with mini partition wizard softwere.its also a easy method.
But remember that by partitioning process the sd card format automatically.so backup ur data first.

Instead of link2sd I suggest Mounts2SD, with that you can move application's data too, not just libs, dalvik and APK. I personally moved everything, except cache and dalvik cache. This way I've got 3GB (ext partition size) "internal storage".

this sounds good. i use link2sd as well and i didn't have any problems with it so far but i'll give mount2sd a try as my internal storage is quite small

apps from internal storage to sd card
thanks, i am currently using the Gionee E3, android OS 4.2.1. and was using the go launcher when i moved the apps to my sd card, i kept getting a "flipboard has stopped working" etc. restarted my phone just now and switched back to default launcher, the icons (droid icons) have appeared but if i select any, it says this app is not installed on your phone.

I tried clean master, and moved es file explorer, after that I checked my sd card. There was no es filemanager apk or its data. I checked in internal memory it's still there
I don't know what it does. But in android 4.2 you can't move apps to sd

Did you deleted clean master. Before uninstalling you need to restore apps otherwise it won't work.

if you have not deleted clean master try restoring the apps back to phone storage
Use Link2SD ( Need Root )

You Can't move all apps to sd card. It is restricted by app developer
But You can move it using Link2SD App which allows those apps to be moved to SD card..
*Your device should be rooted to use Link2SD App
Download Link2SD from Play Store

Thanks each & every post which helps you...
