Guys, Im trying to move apps to the sd card, I already tryed 2 different apps for that but the result was always the same.. not enough storage space in usb device... I have almost 20gb free in my Sd card, and why does it says usb device??
can somebody tell me an app that works properly with the S tab..
Thanks!

Have tried moving them through your settings and then choosing application? Some apps you can move while other you cannot.
Hmmm, tryed, but probably all the apps I tryed where non moveable, so I quited... gonna give it another go..
Thanks

I apologise if this a nooby question but I've searched and can't find anything. Is it possible to store the apps on the 16gb usb storage instead of device storage. I don't have a memory card cos i think the 16gb will be ample big enough.
Cheers

What do you mean? All your apps go on a different partition which is 2gb in size. I hope you are not talking about using apps2sd...

Oh rite thanks for clearing it up. Just on my old phone (n97) the device storage was different to the usb storage. If i use up more of the device will the phone run slower? Sorry for the questions just want to try and get the best out of the phone, thanks : )

well, the addiional 11GB of the internal memory is also mounted as "sdcard" (while the actual SD card looks like a standar folder on this partition called "external_sd"), but you won't be able to use it for applications via apps2sd... at least my stock rom doesn't allow this, that works only with the actual SD card.
Either way, the primary 2GB offers plenty of room except if you want to install the whole android market on it.
When I tried to install NavFree I got an error Not enough space.
Where is it better to store apps?
In SD card or in phone?
Thanks...

Phone memory is faster....but smaller
SD had more space but slower....
Make your choose?
I reccomend most important apps leave phone memory and less important apps you can move sd card.

Running ICScrewD ROM
Settings>Applications> Manage Applications> the On SD Card tab at the top, will move capable apps to the sd card.

Thanks for the reply guys but Im not trying to move my apps to the sd card . Im trying to make the data that the apps download go to the sd card

I don't think you can. The internal storage is mounted to /mnt/sdcard, and apps seem to always put their downloaded data on /mnt/sdcard. Only tip I can give is to move all your music, pics and videos to the external card to make room for the app data.
Or, move game data to the external sd card when you're not using it, then move it back when you want to play that game.

Hey guys I figured out that cyanogen has that option to use internal or external sd for data storage. Is there a stock rom that offers it?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
No, at least not on any stock based android I've seen. Cyanogenmod was designed to be installed onto the ext sd card. The 'option' it gives is to use the internal, not the other way around. Technical difference, but nonetheless.
I've never seen a stock based 'prom' (that's for you gary) for any phone that had android installed onto the ext sd card.

I have ZDBOX installed on my nook tablet and used it to move apps to my sd card. The only problem is now I cannot find the apps. If I'm in ZDBOX, go to the App to SD tab, and click on - ON SD CARD, NOTHING is there! The app is also now missing from my App Manager. Did I lose the app? How can I find it? What's the use of having the SD card if I can't move anything to it!
Are you using the stock ROM? It does not play well with moving apps to the SD card. Not something B&N intended, I guess.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
Yes I am. So these apps are now lost?
If I recall correctly, that is the case. What is motivating you to move them to the SD card? By default, they are installed to the (larger) B&N partition.

Anyone been able to move they apps to sd card?
You should try app2zip app on the market recommend by bfitz26. It make a zip of your apps and you can just flash them to any rom.

I need to move them to sd cuz the sgs3 only holds a terrible 11 gb of data and some apps now are 1-2 gb so what I can only have 5 games? so dumb... I tried apps 2 sd but for some reason its not working, titanium backup isnt letting me move apps to sd either too
Also I can't even look at my SD Cards files from my phone? Wtf samsung do you not have sd card support?

It's a much bigger issue than this phone. Read this.... http://www.chainfire.eu/articles/113/Is_Google_blocking_apps_writing_to_SD_cards_
So basically samsung is preventing the sd card from really being very usable on purpose?
