[Q] Apps to SD card and 'n' button

I'm sorry if this is already adressed in another thread, but I searched and could not find anything; if there is another thread I would be happy if someone would direct me there.
I have been using this site to help decide on getting the nook, and to figure out how to root the nook. Now that it is rooted I am having 2 problems. The first is that I have run out of room on the device and can not update any of the apps until I remove some, and I was wondering if there was a way to put them on the SD card. I've gone into the nook color tools, manage apps, and selected an app that I was told would deffinitely work from the SD card, Angry Birds, and selected "move to SD card" and it says, failed to move.
The second problem is that the 'n' button only takes me to the zeam launcher, whereas before when I hit the 'n' button it would open a menu asking me if I wanted to go home or to the zeam launcher. Is there a way to get this option back?
For the latter question, go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications, then choose Zeam and click the "Clear defaults" button.
How about the former?
Manual nooter supports apps to sd. You may still run out of room though.
Eventually.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think you need dal's kernel as well.
If i install dal's kernel, what would that do to my device? aside from allowing applications to be moved to the sd card.
Moving the purchased or built in Nook apps to SD causes them to appear uninstalled to the Nook Store.
I was having the same issue, but I left the Nook apps alone and moved ALL other eligible apps to SD. Once I did this I am able to add Nook apps with no problem.
I did start from scratch and add all Nook apps first, this makes things much easier.

[Q] Bluetooth not working after root....

Hey guys I rooted my Atrix about a month ago using gingerbreak and I finally got a new Bluetooth for it but when I try to turn on the Bluetooth on the phone it attempts to then dose nothing. I have tried restarting the phone and it didn't work. I don't know what else I can do besides factory restoring it, and if I can avoid that I would like to. Any ideas besides that?
Thanks,
Adam
No one has any ideas?
I have the same issue on two different phones. A soft reboot usually gets it working again, until I toggle it off. Then it won't turn on til next reboot.
I have the same exact problem.... tried a lot of things, but none succedd

I tried battery pulling it and that didn't work either sadly.
Okay, Maybe this info helps. I believe its has something to do with a specific program being moved to the SD Card or sd card mounting.
I just had this happen. Bluetooth would not turn on at all. I decided to play Chuzzle and when my battery went low, I plugged the phone into my comp USB port. It disconnected the SD card in lieu of mass storage. Killed my game because it resides on SD Card. At this point, I decided to test bluetooth and it worked!! Don't have time to test it further but. I suspect something residing on the SD card maybe the culprit. Unfortunately, I have over 30 things on it so segmenting out is going to be a pain.
Do you all have programs on the SD card?
Yeah, i moved 111 apps using apps 2 sd... cant tell which one is related to bluetooth...

I was having the same trouble and noticed that plugging in USB in storage mode would "fix" my bluetooth... I used Optimize Toolbox too clear all my cache and remove old SMS messages (after a backup) and bluetooth seems to be working again
*Edit* this didn't seem to last after I moved a few apps back to the SD card... I'm giong to keep messing with this...
after much pissing around with moving apps back and forth the internal SD card no longer mounts when i plug into my PC... interesting... I'll continue to report any progress I make
I've removed the physical SD Card and determined the problem lay in the internal SD Card...
ok after some seemingly "random" application moves from SD to phone I have this "working". I think it's a possibly corrupt internal SD but I haven't gotten any of the warnings that I see other people get where the phone explicitly says as much, however here is why I still suspect it:
as I was using Optimize Tool Box to move apps I noticed it was moving them rather slowly and taking a few extra seconds to re-load the app list, after one move (a Dolphin HD plugin full screen froyo incase that matters) I noticed the refresh seems snappier,
I went out to my home screen and hit a bluetooth widget and BT started working, I tried moving a couple different apps back and it stopped working.
Here is a full list of apps I moved OFF my SD in the event that it is still app related and a list of my apps might be handy to see who has common apps
Remote VNC Pro
My Tracks
Knots Guide
ConnectBot
Retro Defense
Best Apps
FBReader
Fullscreen for Froyo
Net Ping
AndFTP
Amazon Kindle
BlastMonkeys
KeePassDroid
Terminal Emulator
AndroZip
DailyComix
Dungeon Defenders
SilverEdit
Linux Commands
Handcent Emoji Plugin
Movie Free
My Backup Root
OSMonitor
Handcent SMS Skin(Metal)
SMS Backup+
Thinking Space
I hope this can help someone fix their phone or better yet get us a litter further towards an actual solution.
These are on my list. They should not be moved to SD:
Firefox
Brain Cube
Rugby
Anyway, the problem seems to be solved on 4.5.91. I've been moving apps all day and yet my bluetooth is still working.

(Q) Link2sd reseting apps put in folders and homescreen

I recently upgraded to a new sense 6 based rom on my HTC ONE, after installing all my apps again I'm facing a weird problem. I use link2sd to move most of my moveable apps to internal SD. But everytime I restart my phone the apps that I've organised into folders and the shortcuts I put on the home screen just tend to disappear & I have to arrange them again.
What can I do to fix this? I know it's something related to apps moved to the phone storage but the problem is that the apps are so many to be moved to the main storage.
Please help.

s there anyway to move apps to sdcard (kitkat)?

Hello all..
I just switched to Android. I got the LG G PRO 2 runs Kitkat, and I was wondering if there any way to move apps to the SD card. I tried "Move to SD card" option but we all know this is useless.
I read that it could be done by rooting the phone (not yet sure what or how is that). but should this be done every time I need to move an app or what?
Also, is there any way to easily control the placement of the apps on storage, specially large apps like games and such, one by one like in old Android?
Any piece of info related to the subject will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
