can you move games/apss to EXT SD? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my S2 rooted. can I move these games from the internal and sd memory to my REAL EXTERNAL SD card?
And still have the icons @ the same place @ dekstop and play them directly?
How would I do this?
Thanks.

Use Link2SD app. You can also create a second part of your sd-card with MiniTool Partition Wizard for Windows then link your apps to this 2nd part. Root needed.

try link2sd,
i dont know only one thing: where this program move files (apk+cache) cause i dont see them in /sd-ext and app2sd app (i forget about uninstalling it) is showing that app is in internal storage but internal storage free memoory is like it was before moving.
EDIT: after reboot it is in data/sdext2 folder (before in /data folder).

Apps 2 SD Card?

Ok, apparently my internal card is filling up quickly... How does one go about moving things to the sd card? Or is that not an option as of yet?
Running LiquidSmooth at the moment and all rooted out...
Folder mount is the best app for this.

personally i dont like folder mount i use link2sd app and yes it does work for the s4 you just cant make the ext on the external sd from the custom recovery any more you have to use the pc program to format the external sd to fat 32 and choose how ever much memory you want for that part then make the ext part and then also choose how much memory you want for that part go through the process then once you launch link2sd it will ask you to select the ext part of your external sd and there ya go you can now create symbolic links between your apps and external sd theres a guide floating around on the internet just look up how to use link2sd app

Expanding (swapping?) internal storage with sd card

Hello everyone,
I have 16gb device, and I'm using Folder Mount to deal with the storage space issue. but I remember reading something about expanding the phone's internal storage using SD card, meaning that apps would be installed directly on the SD card. I also read that it is possible to swap the internal storage with the SD card so that the OS sees the card as internal memory and treat it as such. I tried to find up to date information on the subject but I'm not able to.
I'm wondering if this is still applicable on Android 4.4.2. And if it is, could you give me some pointers on what do I need to search for (current method or apps) as I'm a total newbie regarding Android.
Thanks in advance
Anyone??
You can do it using link2sd . you should first partition your ext sd card.

Okay so Link2sd still works.
May I ask, does Link2sd directly install NEW apps on the ext partition, or installs them on internal memory and then move them to the ext partition?
Also, is Link2sd method is the most efficient method to date?
Thanks
Link2sd does not directly install apps on sd card partition. You have to link the app file, library file etc manually by opening link2sd. However you can set it to automatically link your newly installed apps in the setting.Linking can move the app file ,library file etc to ext2,ext3,fat or whatever partition your sytem supports and significantly increases free internal memory.
There is another method without using link2sd .You can search the thread.As for efficiency link2sd method work fine on my device.
