You don't need to edit vold.fstab as you would on Certain Sony Devices. Just put the SDcard and games should automatically use that as it's primary storage

Ok, here we go again..
Firstly "need help" is a ridiculous title to use. Topic titles are supposed to describe your topic briefly so that people browsing can see at a glance what topic is about. Majority of people will simply bypass/ignore your thread if you lave silly titles like this.
Second, you need to provide more info like what rom your using, have you checked the roms thread incase other people have had same issues?
The 2GB is a partition of your internal storage for your system. The rest os for your installed apps/appdata etc. Also, what do you mean by copying sddata to sdcard, and "not working". If you expect help you need to be more descriptive.

Hey everyone
I am new to XDA and android.
I have HTC Desire SV with most of the features common with HTC desire x. just wanted to know i have around 1.11 GB of internal storage and 1.10 GB of phone storage.
Heavy applications like GTA vicecite have 13 mb of APK and then 900 mb of data. My doubt is will this data be stored in phone memory? or we can somehow shift it to external card. Also can anyone tell how to download and install such kind of games for free. i have data files and APK just wanted to know how to install in external SD card and not phone storage/internal storage.
I know it is a noob's question but please help

Thanks for replying. the problem is that after installing apps the folder is created in phone storage's android folder and not in external sd card. HTC phone storage is just 1.09 GB out of which only 725 MB is available to me right now and 400MB is already used (attached the screen shot) the data for these games is more than 900MB. what to do? :crying:
Please help or give a tutorial i am new to android.

Does no good without rooting the phone. Any other solution just to copy the game data to external sd without rooting
A2SD isn't good for this device, it's meant for devices with less than 500 MB internal storage.
Try to create folders Android/data on your sd and then to install a game and see what will happen.
Not happen.............
plZ Help Me
Your issue is the size of your external memory, 1gigabyte is no where near enough for the games you mentioned
And as suggested above create the needed folders android/data & android/obb
If you have sd card then the data is automatically downloaded to sdcard

I think it's because Op has 1gb sdcard, and thats good for maybe 2 smallish games like Blackops zombies/shadowgun/deadtrigger/etc

I have nearly all of them hd games installed on my dx, all you gotta do is just place data in either android/data or /obb, & then install apk..
If you have a stock hTC rom on your DX , internal & external sdcards are swapped . That means the external SD card is mounted as the internal SD and you can safely place the game data on your external SD in Android/data or Android/obb (depending on the game ofc) and the game will run without any extra tweaks . I've tried NOVA 3 and it works without a problem .
However , if you have a custom rom that doesn't swap the storages , try using DirectoryBind . Never tried it on an hTC , but tried it on lots of Samsungs , LGs and Sonys and it works without a prob , so I don't see why it wouldn't work on our DX .
DirectoryBind is an app that can be used to mount folders from the external SD on the internal SD , to look as if the folders are actually situated on the internal memory . If you don't know how to use it , check out my tutorial over here .

I dont know if you can make it "default" storage, but for any third party app/game to be able to write on sd card you need to root your phone and instal KK sd card fix.
Well...
I've got a moto E and a 8GB SD card. I have been using MM(AICP) for like months and I really love the ROM and its battery backup but the thing is I'm running out of storage space.. The system itself takes like 1.2 GB out of 2.1 GB available internal storage and few basic apps - I'm full...
I have only 1 game and would like to try more like I used to but can't download as play stores says I'm out of space... Updating apps have been an issue too.. I want to fix this by buying a Samsung 32GB EVO+ class 10 (20MB/s Write Speed) and use it as my internal storage...
Worth it?
Anyone using their SDCards as internal storage? Bugs or Good Experience?
Should I buy or go back to CM11?
-Thanks
Yes. It will be worth it and the problem you are facing is faced by everyone.
So is your phone rooted? If not search xda for methods to root your phone. Then use Link2sd. You can find detailed guide on how Link2sd works in xda itself. if not then i can help.
How link2sd works? In short:-
It requires 2 partitions of your sd card (you will know how to partition your sd in every link2sd guide) one partition for media storage like songs videos images etc and the other will work as internal memory. For this you will require rooted device. And also you will need Foldermount which will enable you to move the obb or game data from internal to external sd. And root is necessary for this too. Hope it helps.
Marshmallow has inbuilt feature of using Memory Card as Internal Storage.
I am using it from a month and honestly no bugs.
The only problem is that you have to format your SD card in the phone itself to use again as portable storage device.
The second thing is that If you format your phone or start using another ROM your SD card data will be of no use and you will have to format it again.
Hope I helped you.
Thanks both of you... I should go for a 32GB class 10 then?

Yes you can.
Now... I've got the SD Card. What should I prefer? Link2SD or Marshmallow's feature?
I want to get the best performance out of SD card... Plus hassle free operation.

marshmallows feature since it automatically moves all apps to SDcard.
One more thing link2sd will create partition out of your SD card while marshmallow will automatically format your SD card as internal storage..
Marshmallow feature is strongly preferred.
Hope I solved your query.?
Well I've been using this hybrid method lol. I partitioned my SD card so that - one partition is used for marshmallow's feature and rest space as portable storage
Didn't wanted to go all in as the feature encrypts the entire card and makes it unusable on other devices.
My phone's running smoother than before maybe coz of the Class 10 UHS-1(though UHS-1 speeds aren't supported by my device) card I've been using. I'm getting ~11.63 MB/s which is faster than phone stock internal storage(~11MB/s).
Thanks for all you suggestions and inputs!
