Hello all,
I'm new to this forum. First of all, let me thank you for the amount of documentation and useful information that you have here! Nice job!!
I've been following this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2254358 for moving my apps into my SD card.
I expected a lot of free space as I was moving facebook, twitter, google play services and some other, but after moving them, the apps seems to be installed in my SD but I don't get any free space...
am I doing something wrong? any other way for movind apps?( I've read about link2SD, but it needs a partitioned SD card and now I don't know if, after repartiotioning it, I'll get the same results...)
Any other stuff that I can remove from my interna memory?
TIA,

Bro follow this guide. It works great. Here is the link,
How to increase the Internal Memory
Repartitioning will delete the existing ext partition from sdcard, then format you sdcard and finally creates a new ext partition to the sdcard. So it will work for sure. Hope I Helped
Hello,
So, the Titanium Backup workaround does not work
Seems that I should start from there, even before installing custom ROM. (I guess I could do a backup of my apps and then restore).
Anyway, I'll try thant and take the opportunity to upgrade my ROM (I realized that I installed Ace-i-sure 8 instead of latest (12).
Thnaks to both for you answers,
Cheers,

Dear Friends, is there any way I can move application to external card on my Galaxy S3? No apps can do this for now. Any ideas would be welcome. Thank you.
You could always use Android Commander to pull the apps to your PC and then put them on your SD card. You may also be able to use Titanium Backup to do it, but I'm not sure about that.
I would be interested in doing this as well, maybe there is a way to directly install to extSD?
Installing apps in SD card I dont know but you can use Titanium backup to backup them and restore back after a fresh flash install I think..
U can move apps to sd with app2sd hack or with a couple different apps from play store
I think app2sd is useless in S3.

A new Apps2sd post on the XDA portal today .

Post deleted by OP
I would like to leave warning to avoid moving/linking..
Play Store, Google Play Services, System Apps and any file manager you have.
Why you may ask?
Google Play Reason:
Cuz "heaven forbid" something happens to your SD card, you would lose access to Google Play and won't be able to download apps.
System App reason:
Well if you lose an system app you won't be able to Factory Reset.
File Manager Reason:
Well if you lose your file manager you of course won't be able to browse files.
And won't be able to download another if you lost Google Play.
Just a heads up for anybody wanting to install Link2sd

Great suggestions! I got all of those linked on my card but I make damn sure I have everything backed up twice! I don't do a lot of really fancy stuff so it seems to be working just fine but for the people who are flashing ROMs take heed. I've overclocked, undervolted, rooted, linked2sd, deleted bloatware, and custom recovery and it's fine for me. Thanks so much for the suggestions and I hope people will read all the way through!

I think the biggest you can do is 2gigs, any higher you "might" run into slower running apps/system.
Maybe you can push it to 2.5gigs

"App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card."
How do I move the actual game to my SD card. Right now it says the game is linked but I can't move the game to the SD card. I'm running cm10.1 on my p769. Thanks!

I'm confused about this last image (can't link to it because I'm new here) - I've been unsuccessfully trying to partition a 32GB card for days now, literally scouring this forum and others, and I've tried so many things on it - wiping, partitioning, deleting and creating new partitions, formatting - I really think the card itself is probably ruined, and that might be my main problem. So I bought a new 16GB SD card, SanDisk, I think class 4 (clerk told me that as I was paying, don't see anything on the package indicating what class it is), and I don't want to mess this up. I paid a guy to root my phone, and using Root Browser I see a list of folders and files, one of which is mnt, then subfolder sdcard, then subfolder external_SD pathway. If that what I should be seeing to begin with?
I do understand that the SDcard folder is not my SD card - it's actually part of the internal memory.
My confusion about your image is that when I look at Link2SD storage info I see "internal 73% free", "SD Card 73% free", "ext. SD 99% free", and "SD Card 2nd part. not mounted" - below that I see system 28% free and cache 97% free. Your image shows only 3 things. I notice that my "internal" and "SD card" show exactly the same numbers.
If you folks think what I'm seeing is normal, aside from the "not mounted," (I get that, it isn't mounting and I want to try a new card), I plan to start at the top of your instructions, use MiniTool Partition (which I've been using all along), partition my new card FAT32 12GB and second partition ext 3 (because I'm running android 4.1.2 and in these instructions it says to use ext3) 4GB. I have one large app (ibird pro) that I hope to link to the SD, which is why I chose 4GB for the second partition.
Can anyone see anything wrong here so far? I guess I'm looking for someone with my phone like TheCoutures who has done this process and has it working for confirmation that I'm not off base before I even start with this file structure and/or my plans for the partitioning sizes etc.
Thanks - and btw I thought the noob video was really funny and very well done, thoroughly enjoyed watching it
In case it doesn't show up my phone is an LG Optimus L9, T-mobile, android 4.1.2.
This is on my linked2sd. You are just fine with respect to the memory sections. Read from the beginning and you should be just fine. My card is 16mb and I partitioned it right down three middle. Try to mount or partition using cwm if you are more comfortable with that.

So "Google Chrome" and "Amazon" for example are marked as system apps but they are non-critical to system operation (I am assuming). Are you saying that if I uninstall these apps I won't be able to do a factory restore?
If I have a 32GB SD card, is there a download side to set the EXT3 partition to 16GB other than I have less space to store media files?

Link2sd plus will do that for you. It has an option of placing the application and/or its data on the sd. It's a paid app, but only $2 - well worth it imo.
thanks ill check it out and get back to you
its not working for me are sure it will allow me to download the additional 3gbs to the EXTERNAL sd card? instead of the internal storage wich has only 700mb's? thanks for your suggestion though this is really stomping me

OK, I should have been clearer. This is more complex than what I first described. In order to use Link2SD plus optimally, you will need to perform a few steps. You can find the reasoning behind them in the Link2SD FAQ (although a bit outdated). Here are the steps you should perform:
1. Backup your SD. This is a means of precaution only.
2. Reformat your SD drive to add a second ext3/ext4 partition (no need to wipe the data or anything like that). Its size should be about 10% of the total SD size. You can do it with MiniTool Partition Wizard. Make sure that the new partition is primary and not logical.
3. Reinstall Link2SD plus in order for it to recognize the new SD layout. May need to reboot here.
4. From Link2SD plus, choose your game. Tick all Link options, especially the link data option.
This will fool the game to think that its data is located on the internal storage, but it's really on the SD. In this case, the 3GB data should now be downloaded to SD.

LOL yeah. Although I'm a big android fan, this specific issue (the whole dealing with external SD that is) is a weak spot which android keeps failing to address throughout its releases. I know where it's coming from (basef on linux) but it's still something that should have gotten a proper creative solution by now.
I have L7 II and I used FolderMount on obb of games like FIFA 14 and it worked fine,you should try it

No problem mate. It's best for you to try all the methods posted here by other people before trying Link2SD plus. If they work, it'll save you much hassle. I've tried to think of a guide for you, and it figured to me that the only way for it to work is if you either get an SD card reader or alternatively another device that allows you to mount the SD in a USB MSC (mass storage class) mode, as AFAIK LG stock devices only allow MTP mode, something that won't allow you to format a partition using your PC.

Yes, CWM is Clockwork Mod - Android's recovery program. Reason I asked is that it has a built-in ability to partition your SD, something that'll ease things up.
And don't feel bad about not partitioning theSD - this shouldn't be done in the vast majority of the cases, only in when you wanna use apps like Link2SD or others that need to push Android to the limit...
ok ill look into that today and get back at you also is it possible to sideload an app directly on to your external sd? could that work and let me side step alot of trouble thanks

I guess it's possible, but I don't know how to do it...
Regarding Link2SD plus guide, you'll need one of the following two:
1. CWM on your device
2. A card reader, or another phone that allows you to mount the SD as MSC (like Disk On Key - in windows it'll show as an additional drive)

yeah i dont have a card reader and i dont know anybody that has one neither i wish i would did more research before i made the leap from ios to android i thought android was more accessible open and easier to deal with i assumed that since you had an sd card slot having a ton of internal space wasn't critical like it is on ios because you could buy memory i had no clue how wrong i was and since i got this phone and ive noticed something odd gl to sd seems to be doing what i want but only for on app assassins creed black flags companion app runs fine when i use gl to sd the additional data downloaded on my external sd and when i try to run the app without gl to sd it tries to download the additional files on my internal sd are you familiar with that app and how to get it to work with other apps like gangstar vegas? thanks man for your and everybody eles help

YES, root acces is available. I found some threads here about the SD cards but like I said nothing helped me out. Could someone explain it to me? Btw I also installed the KitKat Fixer for the SD Card.
Thanks for help...

I tried they all! But they doesn't work for me. Link2SD for example freezes my phone when it I go into the standby (after making another partition)
Nope since 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 it aint work anymore and not even with app2sd or link2sd !
Hi! I've got an i717 16GB, and according to my settings, I only have 2GB of space on the total system. I plug it in, and it says I have 10GB available and 5.8GB used. What's going on? I have CWM 5.5

We still did not find the solution(re-partition tool/flashable zip/script) at all.
Still waiting for any expert's tip - android re-partition skill.
I really do want to solve this problem to keep using my current note until I upgrade to new phone.

OPPS sorry about that dead link.....
This link is working today https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHsHiXDgSy4
I put the whole URL this time to copy and paste.
I use the FREE EASEUS Partition Master 9.1.0 Home Edition to partition the sd card. I find it easier to and faster to back up the contents of sd card to computer than partition. and than transfer bkup to sd card on the 1st Primary Fat32 partition.
Takes to long to transfer 4 to 6 GB back from bkup to card from pc to phone IMO.
OR
Here is a step by step .... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nllIEBzuPHo I prefer the 4000MB partition for the NU storage.
Be sure to set or make BOTH the partitions "Primary" partitions or they will not work with Link2sd.
I tried Mini tool and Aparted but they might work for others, they didn't work for me.
Link2sd card is the most reliable and easy to do the linking from old tiny internal storage to the NEW enlarged external storage that I have found.
And if that app does not do it for anyone try foldermount https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATWTghTploY
OR
HERE at xda .... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39178981 Give a BIG thanks and support to madmack
And get that apk from madmack at bottom first post.
And if you do NOT have ROOT than try. . .

So, basically your solution is based on using additional SD card not changing/modifying the phones' EMMC memory.
I think I had tried Link2SD/Folder mount earlier and not all apps supports with this method.
It is still helpful but I think we(other users) still like to change the EMMC side.
But I still want to tried your suggested method to try. Thank you!!!

BTW, how do you use? (Partition Size and link to External SD? or Internal 2nd Partition?)
Just wondering... If you have spare time to share. Please share how you did and how you are using it with which combination sizes. Thank you!
