when i download gameloft games, it saves in internal memory :S. And when i tried to move it to Sdcard/External SD from pc, everything was deleted. the folder shows 0mb in sd card. And i had to redownload the files, but it's still in internal memory. any way to move the files? and without being rooted?
BTW i just realised when i move an app to sd card, it moves the app to internal memory :S
Is there any way to save the gameloft games to the external SD card? Im starting to run out of space internally.
I tried moving the gameloft folder to the microSD but when i load the game, it will commence downloading
is there a way to save downloaded apps to microsd instead of internal mem?
Bump. Still no workaround this? Other apps likr sygic aura and navigon also installs in internal memory.... Is this devs or samsungs fault? My guess is samsung... So muvh for my 32gb sd card...

Just got my new s2, seems like i can't move google translate, dolphin or whatever is movable to the internal storage. anyone have any problems? or do i need to install a real microsd card to be able to move the apps to sd? can't i just use the 16gb built in memory as sd for the apps?
Thanks
nvm, got it to work by inserting sd card.
Hi
i just rooted my sgs2 and i got 16gb external sd card, i have seen lots of good apps and i want to install them but before that i have read that some people recomend to install apps2sd to save space on the phone but other said that with that amount of space you dont need to install this app, also i readed that some roms dont support the app, so its good idea to install apps2sd???
I really like apps and i will check 3 or 5 roms. If its a good a idea, should i install first, before any other app??

I don't know apps2sd.
But it sounds like it moves your apps to the external sd card.
That can also be done with stock Android system: Setting > Applications > SD card.
Then click on the app you want to move and say move to sd card.
I had some apps on my external sd card, but some apps are loaded a little bit later/slower, when they are on the external sd card.
So, I recommend that all apps, which you need very often and especially direct after booting the phone, should stay on the internal sd card.
And after flashing some "early" ICS Rom versions, I lost my apps which were on the external sd card.
I had to re-install them from Play store.
But this was only an issue of some ICS ROMs/kernels, and should be fixed now.
Anyway, that caused me to move all apps back to the internal sd card.
I just want to be on the "safe side" ;-)
you should absolutely not install app2sd (the app of that name), because the functionality is already present in all roms.
in settings -> apps you can move apps.
however, in contrast to the previous post, apps are moved between the /data/ partition of the internal sd card and the /sdcard/ partition of the internal sd card.
as you might know, /data/ has 2GB, /sdcard/ has about 12GB. You can check on your current storage space occupation in settings -> storage.
if you have enough free space on data, leave your apps there, as sdcard is a universal storage space, that can also contain music, photos, videos and so on and since this space is also accessible to users that are not rooted, it is more versatile and therefor more valuable.
Since both partitions are on the same sd card, you don't have to worry about speed differences.
After moving some apps using apps2sd I had to restore a nandroid because it messed up my system.

great i wont install apps2sd, but now what kind of files or info is recommended to be in the external SDcard?
I have on the external sd card my movies, music, photos and videos recorded with the phone camera, my titanium backup folder, few custom rom zip files, nandroids etc.

^Ditto. Keep your media and big files on external SD, keep your apps on the internal app memory if you can (its around 2gb in size, unless you go over that there is no need to put apps on SD).

Pretty much a obvious question for most people . Do install it ! It moves apps to SD ( wow ) , clearing space for many many other stuff . So , why not install it ?
Thank me if i helped ~
well iam fully loaded an my opinion is the app notifies u wen u install a app,but on the hard core side wen many apps r moved to sd ,ive crashd sometimes..i think it was better if there was a option to store apps directly on the ext sd card instead of phone or int sd card...
Try GL to SD from the market, posted a threat like this a month ago and someone recommend me this.

Hello )
I have a rooted ICS samsung note, i installed the NFS Most Wanted game, after launching the game, he tries to download 1,96 GB of data and (of course) can't find enough space on my internal memory of my internal SD card
i already have a second SD card installed on my Note (with 25 GB free space on it), how can i manage to get the NFS game to download data on that external SD rather than the internal one?
thanks a lot!! )

From what I know,game data should download automatically on SD card,at least on my phone.Is Your game installed on SD card or on your phone?

I moved it to the internal SD card, how can i do to push it to the external one (the one with more storage) ?

Get a program like app2sd pro or apptoSd.
Did you managed to make it work? You can try an app that is called GLtoSD.It allows you to move big gaming data to your external SD card. Root is required.

Hi, on this day I bought LG Optimus L9, it has Internal storage 4GB, for user is only 2GB. In settings this memory shows like internal memory, but in file maneger it shows like SD Card what is problem...my 32GB SDcard is located in SD Card/external_sd. Than games which needs additional data which are on SD Card, are downloaded to internal memory, and on external SD Card games doesn't see data, because path to this memory is SD Card/external_sd ....have you got any ideas how to solve it ? is any way how to create shortcut to folder of games data ?
You can use GL to SD

You need to root your phone if you haven't already.
Also you should know that at least my phone needs to be restarted after using it everytime i play something.
Maybe it works well on yours.
