Link2SD
Search for "Link2SD" its a app with that you can move every app to your microSD card.
BUT BEFORE you can actually move EVERY APP to the MicroSD, you have to make a partition on it (for the apps you want to move on it) which has Fat32 and should be set to "Primary". I recommend you searching for "Link2SD Tutorial" on youtube or google
Good Luck!

When I had a P1000, I used a lot the feature of sending applications and games and its data files to my SD CARD with a single purpose: leave the internal 16Gb memory as free as possible for better perfomance.
Now I have a rooted P6200 and I only can use my SD CARD for storing music and videos because I have no option of MOVE TO SD CARD anymore.
I also tried some applications that MOVE TO SD CARD, but none of them work.
I called the SAMSUNG SUPPORT and they told me I should be able to move to SD, but I read somewhere that it's something about the way that Android 3 and 4 manage partitions... what makes me believe I will not be able.
So, I am confused.
Can I move applications to SD CARD or not?
Can I make a application store data on SD CARD? Example: MailDroid or a game that consumes a lot of the memory - I would prefer to store data on the SD card.
Does anybody have a hint for that?
Thank you!

There are some apps in the Google Play Market like app 2 sd or move to sd (something like that), you can try one of those.
Personally I have no experience on these apps since I still have plenty of space, but you can read a little the features and see if that works for you
Unfortunately, APP2SD does not work to me

Thank you for your suggestion, but when APP2SD starts, I receive this message:
Your device has no real primary external storage or primary storage is emulated
APP2SD will not support move 2 card.
I dont understand this message. I have the 16Gb internal memory plus a 32Gb SD card as s imple a s it can b e, but it is not moving to S D.
P lease someone help me how to solve it.
By the way, the 32Gb SD is fully recognized by the P6200. I can see all my files regularly.
Link2sd may work, but I don't think there would be any performance gain from moving the apps over.

Can I get super user access without rooting? Link2SD tells me I have to allow it to move the app.

Super User access is root access. so, no you can't.

From my point of view, rooting is something relatively easy, both to get and to lose: you just flash a zip from the default recovery. It does not even takes your flash count up. Basically, it's a single file that needs to be placed in "/system/bin/". If you need to send it to support, mount "system" as R/W and delete "su".
I could be wrong though, but you should really look into it. I think it is worth it.
By the way, I think you would have to partition your SD Card to use it with Link2SD...

Hey all,
I just rooted my ATT Galaxy S2 first time and I think the first time android phone in general. I have successfully got to where i want to be. I have internet tethering, uninstalled all the junk, I still sticking with base rom, as I am trying to figure out why CM10 would not boot up beyond loading screen, but thats another topic.
What i don't understand is why you would not be able to move apps to external storage sd card. I used to have htc, and was able to do that, but that was before ICS. I have done some research but not as successfully as i wanted to do.
I have come across "ICS SD Binder" on play.google.com. But I dont completely understand what exactly needs to be done. Or rather bit unsure which drop down item to select and how it might effect my sd card as well as how to move apps afterwards. I assume just relocating them into that folder.
So can some one tell me why is it such a pain to have apps on external sd card and may be point me to right threads on how to point to external sd card and move my apps there or how in general i can get my apps on my external sd card.
Much appreciated and thank you in advance everyone.
I just used grooveshark and audible for my listening and educational needs. Though audio books library isnt bad at 2 gigs. Audio files that i offline are about 6-8 gigs. And thats hits my SG2 internal storage limit : /
Much appriciated.
Why do you want them on the external? They're easy to replace. Store other stuff on the external
Edit: you can use tibu to move apps to the external, but they don't always work well there.

AppMgr III (App 2 SD) on google play?
Apparently my external sd card not seen by that app only internal sd card. Which is useless....
apps2sd moves apps to internal sd not externl sd. dnt think there's a way to move to ext sd yet without assigning ext sd as internal sd and vice versa.
use search button there was a thread with this topic already

You can transfer all your games to ext sd card...
Go to settings>more>application manager>select the game> move to sd card...

All applications are not able to install on sd card
They consume lot amount of internal storage , you can use link2sd app to force them to move on sd card so you can install more apps on your device
Link2SD - Google Play : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD
With 768 MB RAM and a dual core processor, you might not be enjoying a lot of high end games whether they fit on your phone or not. Another option if you root though is Folder Mount:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount
Which will allow you to move the game data itself to external which would save way more room than the app themselves. You do have to pay a few $s for the paid version if you have a lot of folders to move.
Other options include changing the mount points of the storages and have the external SD be the internal and vice versa or to create a partition on your SD card and link that to your /data with one of the CronMod scripts: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124
I'm a newbie to android. How do I add apps to the homescreen?

Oh my. I understand being new, but what was the thought that crossed the mind that it seemed like a good idea to ask your unrelated question on this thread?
Anyway, on almost every home screen app, you have to go into the app drawer and long press on the icon you want and it should move you to the home screen while you are holding it and then just drop it where ever you want. If you want to move it from where you dropped it, just long press on it again and you will be able to continue to move it. Some home screen apps have the ability to add apps and widgets from either long pressing on an empty part of the home screen and hitting Add+ or from using the Menu key on the home screen if you have one. Those features can be more specific to the launcher you are using though.
Is it possible to move apps and app data to the actual external sd card on my tablet not the internal sd card. I am rooted btw
Hi!
I won't link to any one particular app, as I've not used them myself...so I don't want to recommend any one app.
But, go to the play store, search on "app2sd". Theres many apps that will do that for you.
Good luck! ?
Hello,
My basic smartphone has a tiny internal memory capacity of 200 MB. I inserted a 2 GB microSD card.
With the Link2SD app, you can move apps to the SD card. With the paid version Link2SD Plus, you can move even the data files, which could be quite large for some apps.
Is there a free alternative to Link2SD Plus? Is there a free app that will let us install other apps on our external SD card?
