[Q] Saving Apps to SD

Two things:
When I wrote the image to my SD card to root my nook it changed the capaicty of it to only 39 MB. Is there a way to change that back to the 16 gb it was originally?
Second can I save apps from the market to the SD card or do they have to be saved on internal memory? If I can save them to the SD card is there a way to move apps already on the internal memory to the SD card or do I have to reinstall them?

You need to boot the Nook without the sd card in it, and then once it is on & ready put the sd card back into the nook, go to Settings, Device Info, SD Card, Unmount SD card, Format SD Card. It should now be it's original size.
Right now we are running on android 2.1 so it doesn't support apps on the sd card. Once it is upgraded to 2.2 you will be able to put apps on the sd card. If you want to do it right now you have to partition your sd card. I would say wait until 2.2 comes out officially

[Q] Dead Internal SD, mounting phone storage to External SD card

So, I bought a vibrant for 30dollars, so now I have two, should've known something was wrong with it. LOL
The Internal SD card is dead, it says Internal SD card broken, or wrong format.. SO i couldn't use the internal or external sd.
So I was messing around, altered the vold.fstab and vold.conf files to get the phone to use the external SD card as the Internal SD card, everything is good but I still have 0.00gb of phone storage so I am unable to install any applications.
Is there any way that I can change the phone storage to the External SD card?
app 2 sd should work .also did you try to format the internal sdcard

Can't read SD from phone?

My phone can acess and categorize the files from my SD card no problem. But no matter what file explorer app I cannot seem to pull up my sd card.
I am using CM7 if that changes anything.
EDIT: The file viewer shows me the SD card but what is says is my SD shows the contents on my internal card not my external one.
Your looking at the directory for the built in SD card. The external SD card is located in local/mnt/sdcard-ext.

[Q] Internal SD & External SD Problem

Good day guys and hope you can help me with this. Im running Miui 2.1.6 with Siyah kernel 3.3.1, my problem is my internal sd and external sd cards being swapped or thats how the system views it. whenever i try to move apps from phone to sd card whether via app manager or apps 2 sd it moves my apps to my external sd card which is annoying. im only using my external sd card for media and not for my apps. after moving those apps it creates a .android_secure folder on my external sd with .asec files on it. im assuming that this is a problem with how the phone identifies my internal & external sd cards, i tried removing my external sd card and again tried to move apps to sd card and it says it doesnt have enough space which is crazy because my sd card has 6GB free space on it.

Internal SD card not detected

Internal SD card not detected in rooted Micromax A116 flashed with stock rom 4.2.1 from 4.1.2. After swapping External SD as Internal SD by editing vold.fstab with ES file explorer. In settings>storage> it shows Phone storage/0.98Gb (RAM), External SD card 7.96Gb and the Internal SD card 1.77Gb. However Internal SD card is not selectable/detected . When I again switch back by re-eiditng back the same appears in reverse order i.e now External SD card is not selectable /detected. Help as most of the useful apps which cant be moved to Ext. SD are in the Internal SD but that hardly has any space.
