None of the solutions on google are working though... And yes, I'm running android 4.4.2 stock on xperia z ultra... Everytime I try to change something on it like download a torrent using ttorrent or add or delete a file on it, it says operation failed and stuff like that... The weird thing is that when I use other file managers like the file commander app, everything works!

It will only work with File Commander.
On kit kat, google has imposed sd card write permissions.
So only Sony stock apps can write into the partition. So you can use File Commander to cut, copy, paste, delete etc.
3rd party apps cannot modify the sd card. This has been done to increase security.
So if you are rooted, search for SD fix on play store.
If you aren't rooted, then root and fix it

I barely use my ultra apart from surfing the net, I've got a few games installed and now I have used up most of my internal storage!
How can I put these apps and games onto my sd card?

root it then use the program folder mount from playstore and your done.
Is that a common solution? Is it stable etc?
Could you post a link?

Yes it's a common solution for all phones which use only the internal storage for app + app data. There's Folder Mount and GL2SD that work great with Android 4.2.2+ but you have to pay if you want to use them without restrictions.
Folder Mount: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en
GL2SD: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp&hl=en
However, remounting the system partition has a bug with Sony's 4.2.2 firmwares and there's a tool to fix it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317432
Try it if your phone reboots while trying to mount folders with Folder Mount or GL2SD.

I tried clean master, and moved es file explorer, after that I checked my sd card. There was no es filemanager apk or its data. I checked in internal memory it's still there
I don't know what it does. But in android 4.2 you can't move apps to sd

Did you deleted clean master. Before uninstalling you need to restore apps otherwise it won't work.
Sent from my C1905 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
if you have not deleted clean master try restoring the apps back to phone storage
Use Link2SD ( Need Root )

You Can't move all apps to sd card. It is restricted by app developer
But You can move it using Link2SD App which allows those apps to be moved to SD card..
*Your device should be rooted to use Link2SD App
Download Link2SD from Play Store

Thanks each & every post which helps you...

I have problem with access to SD Card (SD Card is OK).
Application that I moved to SD Card works perfect. I can create folder with ES File Explorer but I can't delete it, also Sygic cannot access SD Card. Is any solution for it?

If you need to delete a file or a folder. Try using the default file manager for the phone

Hope they fix this in a firmware update soon.
I have a D618 (4GB internal), and I noticed that there is a "Move to SD" option in the app manager, I tried it, but the app data is still in the internal memory.
And I heard that Kitkat devices have write issues with the SD card, and there is an app for fixing that, but I haven't tried it since my phone is not yet rooted.
Anyone here who has a rooted phone want to try?
Thanks
Move to SD only moves part of the apk file not app data.
It's not affected by the kitkat write issue.
My idea
Use GL to SD. For this you MUST HAVE ROOT. I root my G2 Mini just for it.

If you create a ext4 partition on your sdcard, there's multiple guides online for this. Then root your device and download link2sd, your able to move all apps, cache from apps and etc to the sdcard

Once my phone gets back from service, I will try to make a script which will mount /data/app/ and /data/dalvik-cache/ to a second partition on the SD.

I am having trouble downloading from online and backing up from titanium backup to the external micro. Do we have to do a sd card write fix? I thought that got rid of that.

Isn't there an app that fixes the issue? Can't believe LG hasn't done something about this yet. This was an issue on the G3 also.
Haven't loaded Tbu yet but for other apps when you go to write to the external SD app there is a prompt to give permission to that app to the SD card.
Go to app store and download NextappSdFix. I had to do the same thing. Just run it, and reboot.
that worked , thanks make123
That fix only works if you are rooted. I have an ATT version of the V10 and (so far) it cannot be rooted.

Some apps will prompt you to select target storage in the system which does not require root (root explorer and andftp support this feature).
A fix for those people who are having problems writing to the microSD Card (as mentioned above). Put the card in a PC and right click on it. "Rename" it or go into properties and "Label" it. On one card I had to format "exFat" & label it.
