Hi, im new here and i hope you can help me. I have very strange problem with installing apps on my Vodafone Smart II. Attachment will explain all.
As you can see, apps are installed on sd card. but really? if i delete X app ('installed on sd card") , then my internal storage is freeing. but why? now im trying to download more apps, and it says that i cant because there is no space left (internal). i have tried many solutions, e.g. downloading sdk, jdk and typing commands adb shell etc.. i have tried apps like app2sd etc... still everything is installing on my internal storage... sorry for my english but i hope you understand and you can help me. Thanks.

Hello all!
I installed the newest version of Miui ( MIUI 1.12.9 ) and i got some questiont..
Its all fine but i got one problem, i cant find my apps i had.. i did a factory reset in cwm and all but i didnt wiped my sd card.. my memory sais that there is 4GB of 11GB free so, my sd card still has the data in it, but it seems that i can not access on it? Someone had the same problem or do you have a solution?! please i dont know what to do.
Thanks for all answers!
you cant expect the apps to be there when you dont do a backup...the files on your sd are not the apps...that are just the files the app creates...you had to backup them with titanium backup for example...all you can do now is to download the apps from market...i guess it should work then.
jesh, that works i tried it, dl an app from market installed it and worked.. but ok, how to wipe my sd card?? and why i cant copy my contacts from sim card? and is there no app drawer?? or only the homescreens? thanks

You have to install app again..becoz /sdcard only stored data
sry im not miui user i cant tell you that much about it...if you wanna wipe sd either you can do it through settings or you simply delete anything on your sd card...and miui has no appdrawer...if you want that download it seperatly...google for miui sites and read a bit then youll find what you want to know
MIUI doesnt have an app draw, it has home screens much like you would find on iOS.
If you want and app draw and MIUI you would need to use a different launcher (ADW,GoLauncher,ect).
As it has been answered already, the files in your sd card are only files used by the applications. However i have noticed when i used MIUI for a while that some apps would install to the sd card and need to be moved manually.
From memory so it might be wrong, go in to settting and go to storage and there should be an option there to mount/unmount internal sd card, you should be able to format it from there.
Hello guys,
I have a problem with my HTC Desire X. Every time that I use the sd drive to save something or I switch off my phone, I lose all my applications!
I notice that the problem is collegated with the apps that I have installed on the sd card, because the other apps that I've installed at the internal memory, are perfectly in function.
What huppened?
Every time I restart the phone or the battery finish, I have to reinstall all the apps that I had on the sd!:crying:
I've heared that with the new version of android the sd memory storage will be replaced from an other tipe of storage, maybe is there the solution? I don't know more. Is anybody there that can help me? :fingers-crossed:

i had the same problem using 3rd party apps like link2SD, just use the built in app2sd and you should be fine.
I have a weird and it seems like a common problem too, i have found some threads about it but either they are a little different from mine or they dont have a real solution for it.
So yesterday i decided to download a bunch of games, i never used enough applications to need to move them to my sd, but since i downloaded a lot of them some started to get installed to the sd and i manually moved some of them too to the sd card. But while i was still downloading more apps, some of them started to show the android icon, and when i tried to run them they crashed. The weird part is that it was just some of them.
After that i tried rebooting my phone hoping that would help the phone to reload and see the apps, but that just made it worst since those, and some others went totally missing from the drawer. Is not because the launcher loads before the sd card is read because i already checked that.
So i went to settings>applications and discovered that all those applications are listed there but listed with their other name (dont know how to call it, but is like "com.developer.app" ). All of the missing apps are like that and i cant run them.
- I have formatted the sd using gparted, same behavior
- I have formatted the sd and the internal (sd?) with the phone
- I have done a factory reset with no luck
- I have runned fsck in both internal and external sd's
- The files of the applications are in the .android_secure folder in the external sd card "app.asec"
- The sd card is working (files music, everything else is working)
- I dont know what else to do, I want to be able to use my sd card to install apps
Thanks for your help

Press Thank If I Helped
I dont fully understand you, but i think you are telling me to install, then run the app and then move it to the sd card, i did that to almost all of them (i was trying the games ) but that didnt make any difference. Thank you anyway!
looks like it was a faulty micro sd card switched to another one and problem solved
Hello, well, I'm sorry if this thread shouldn't be here, I'm a new user =D. But well, I ask help please, I hope to find an answer.
See, I've rooted my phone, but I can't move the apps to SD. I partitioned the SD for using Link2SD and it recognize the partition ext2, but can't create the links for apps. I fixed the problem the SD for writing (I can copy, cute and paste from internal storage to SD and inverse? - Sorry, my english is basic and don't have enough megabytes for using an English-Spanish dictionary =D-). So, I think that LG made a good job locking the system. I found some apps for trying to solve the problem, but I think the system protects of they (like Force2SD, Final App2SD, etc.) because don't let me install them, it says that the device don't have enough memory, but does let me install other apps heavier, like facebook. So, the system doesn't give permissions for move apps although the device is rooted. For now, I read that my only salvation is installing a Custom ROM. But there is no ROM for my device until now . Someone knows another option for help me?

I just figured it out, phone is rooted, card is partitioned, you can still only move very few apps to the card, but you can "link" them to the card, it is the option below the move to sd button. I went from having 400MB free to 750MB with the free app, and now have 1.2GB with the paid version. I am amazed!

Hi guys!
I have read your treads about other phones etc.
But nothing seems to work on my Xperia Z2 D6503.
- Which method can I try to transfer APP'S from phone to SDCARD ?
I tried ADB Shell command.
Move2SD (diffrent apps)
ROM Toolbox lite
Everyhting !!
I rooted my phone , just to have the opportunity to do things like that.
Im running CM-11-SNAPSHOOT 20141112.
And Model: 6503.
im sorry if this is a stupid question, but I tried everything.
Best regards Bjerke
I appreciate every answer and method.
Thx you
.
Simply put... You can't!!!
You can use an app like Folder Mount for transfering the data of the app from internal SD to external SD....
So I did with for example Navigon or Sygic navigation.... This saves a lot of memory on internal SD which is shared with system memory....
Does the new 4.4.4 update not resolve this issue?
Not possible
