Wow. Great. Thanks it worked. But is it ok to use move apps option as well? I have installed weather apps with widget and stuff.. Will that be affected?

Activating sd-ext for apps makes every app head over, so you'll have no choice in which. Widgets work just fine because they are on a separate partition than the rest of the FAT (normal) partition.
Wrong forum, please post in the correct one.
On that note, thread closed.

Hi: I've been enjoying using the CyanogenMod for a couple of months now and love it. Thanks to all who created it and continue to improve it.
I simply want to upgrade to the latest stable version. Here's what I "think" I need to do. I would greatly appreciate it if someone could verify the same.
1) put zipped flash onto root of SD Card
2) Backup phone using Titanium Backup
3) Power off phone and choose "recovery" shut-down option
4) Choose zipped flash from sdcard
5) Wait for flash to complete
The other options on the reboot menu include among other things: Wipe, Mounts, Other. I've read in other post that it's a good idea to wipe dalvick-cache. Should I do so - and am I missing anything else?
If there's already a thread out there that walks one through these steps, I was unable to find it - but would appreciate being pointed to the same.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Since you are just upgrading from earlier cm7 rom, you just need to wipe cache and dalvik cache, nothing else

Unless you are updating from a previous version of CM, you should always do a full wipe. Take backups of your sms, contacts, etc.

If you are goin' from froyo or other ROM you have to wipe ALL. It means Data (format system)/Cache/Dalvik Cache/BattStats . If you are goin' from earlier CM7 then wipe Cache/Dalvik cache/battstats.

hmmm i thought that system partition of SGP was too small for two systems to coexist.
It's virtually impossible.
also, this thread would fit in Q&A section or general discussion.
Couldn't you use your external SD Card assuming that you've got one big enough?
The external sdcard isn't the /system partition.
The ROMs each have a seperate /system and /data partition (at least on my O2X) so both of them combined might be too big for the partition.
Take a look here. Its the O2X thread on Dual Booting. I recommend reading it so you can understand the basics.

Hi guys, so i ran out of storage on my mega 6.3 and found out it was the googleplay music data, so i just looked for a solution and ran over this:
watch?v=lYFw9bEAzM8
I am not allowed to put a link it in it, just put youtube . com infront of this
It's really easy and may help to put huge appdata like games and music pinned with google play on your SD Card. :good:
With a 64GB SD-Card i can install any game and put any data onto my phone now
(Sry for my english, I am from austria)
Hopefully I helped a little bit
Looks good but ill wait for the update maybe they put it in there to move apps to ext sd.

I don't have 9205 but have 9152 mega 5.8. By default the latest 4.2.2 already has transfer app to sd. Then to transfer game data I use gl to sd. Of course root is required. Folder mount also works but I have not tried it.
I also use folder mount but there is also an thread here that switches your internal and external sd.
Only problem is that after root i can not do OTA updates anymore.
But i think kies does work.

No, the CSC is only to help Samsung it doesn't do us any good. Keep away from XSA though as we (Aussie) have the bottom dock locked.
The question is app DATA you mean the latest fw can move the game data such as the obb folder? And without root?

I don't know about without root, my Rom has root as well but the official one should be the same.
I am not sure about the data, would that not move with the app? If you run from SD would it not store it on SD? I am not a gamer so I don't know but you could try it, the Rom is an update anyway.
Ok so you have not tried it with game or any app data separate from the app. If the app data is on aseparate folder like "obb" folderthen itwill not move. This is also true with music files and backup files of titanium backup for example.
Gl to sd is the app to use if the app data is separate from the app itself. But the TS does not want to root so I think there is no way yet. Previously on 4.1.2 there was external to internal app but does not work anymore on 4.2.2.
I do know Titanium is movable, you set the place to do backups in the settings.
Anyway there is another thread stating what I already said here- that the MJ2 does not move the obb folder/data only the app.

Surely where the app puts its data is down to the app not the rom?
Previously I used a phone wherein application installation can be installed on the externalsd by selection or by default. So a rom can be programmed to do so. I don't know how difficult will that be to code on the mega and similar phonesbecause of the emulated internal memory though.
I think some of the system apps (like Calculator, Music Player, Camera,etc.) by following steps:-
1. Install ROM Toolbox Pro (Yes, its paid version)
2. Install Link2SD and create second partition on your SD Card (ext2) and reboot your device.
3. Open ROM Toolbox Pro and go to App Manager and Select a system app (!!!!DO NOT SELECT CORE SYSTEM APPS!!!!!) like Calculator. Go to Advanced Tab and select "Convert to User App". Wait for a while. After a minute or two, if nothing appears to be happening in status, just click cancel and app will be converted.
4. Now Open Link2SD. Select Filter>User Apps. Then Select your converted app (Calculator in This case) and select "Move to SD".
5. Its Done........

use a custom ROM!
Most of the custom roms allow this from settings app directly.

I THink that this work will be useless because the new app which you install can directly be moved to sd card and our Phone is Still Not In The condition that internal apps should be shifted to external SD.....

Yes, I would like to discontinue this topic as I found that after converting some sys apps to user apps, the app would just disappear from devices and rom was to be flashed again to get back apps...

Thanks for this useful info ....
After a few experiments and a couple of flashing ahead that apps (not core) from custom ROM are safe to move.... And now can single handly done by using new version of link2sd.......

OK so i have searched for info on increasing the internal memory of a galaxy ace s5839i and there seems to be a lot of info regarding partitioning so i downloaded minitool partition and created a partition on the SD card then used link2sd but this isn't really doing anything, when i try and download new apps larger than the available storage which is 25mb it comes up with the insufficient storage sign and when trying to link the internal apps that came with the phone it just says failure so i would greatly appreciate any help anyone can offer me as i am doing this as a favor for someone and they are picking the phone up tomorrow

CWM for S5830i should work on S5839i as both of them have same hardware. Anything that works on S5830i should work on S5830c, S5830m and S5839i. Hope I Helped

Flashed cwm and made an sd partition using that and i can create links on apps now but larger apps (40mb+) still wont download on to the phone it still says insufficient storage
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Ok i have now linked most of the apps that came with the phone other than system apps and it freed up 90mb which is a big step up from 30mb i had before partitioning however when i download new apps they are not auto linking despite having checked the auto link box and when i do auto link i have to reboot the phone every time to make it take proper effect. Also downloaded apps use up less memory when i move to sd card rather than linking
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Been playing around with link2sd and i am impressed its working great the internal memory from the phone keeps changing for some reason that's why i thought it was still taking up a lot of memory but once the phone is rebooted it balances itself out however the apps are still not auto linking i am putting this down to apps automatically downloading to the sd card rather than internal memory so link2sd is unable to create a link for this, any advice on why this is happening will be greatly appreciated

Some apps are usually installed on SD Card. Sadly Link2SD can't link the apps installed on SD Card. Hence you have to move such apps to Internal memory in order to link them. Also because you are using the stock rom which has no init.d support, you have to reboot everytime for your internal memory to stabilize. If you want to install as much apps as you want, then try CronMod Unofficial Script. But for this you need init.d support. CronMod Unofficial will not work on stock rom. All custom roms have init.d support. Just download any custom rom from the link given in my previous post. Download the CronMod Unofficial.zip from the link below. Now go to CWM, do Format data/ factory reset, Format cache partitions, Mounts & Storage> Format /system & Format /sd-ext, Advanced> Wipe Dalvik Cache. Now mount /system from Mounts & Storage and then install the rom from SD Card. Now remount /system and then install Cronmod Unofficial.zip from SD Card. Done! Just reboot and you can see that your internal memory has increased. Now you can install any number of apps as long as you have free space on the ext partition. Make sure to install only necessary apps as installing a lot of apps will ultimately slow your device. Here is the link,
Cronmod Unofficial

The person im doing it for doesn't want a custom rom so is there no way to direct apps straight to internal on stock rom? Hes taken his phone back hes happy with it for now but would be better if apps are automatically linked. Now i can go back to using my nexus 5 lol

You can also install a custom stock kernel to get init.d support to your stock rom. Try Rafeal Baugis Stock kernel. Here is the link,
