Help on transferring apps to SD - Milestone XT720 General

Hi all, Please someone help me to transfer apps to SD on my Milestone XT720. I tried App2Card> But didn't work...

Is your device rooted? If not the first to do it root it, you can learn how to easly do it in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887416
When, after root there are a lot of ways to send Apps to SD, I'm using the Link2SD and recomend it, to learn how to do it you just need to follow the steps in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=923628
Just some tips:
1: Don't forget to partion your SD card first
2: If you're using XTHoneycomb custom ROM from Kahlpower you don't need to put the ext2.ko files as explained in the thread, it's already there, dunno about others ROMs.
Good Luck

Hi, thanks for your reply.. My XT720 is rooted. I followed as you explained.. After making partition and installing Link2SD I rebooted phone. Phone got struck at Boot logo. I got same problem with App2card.

My XT720 is running on Stock firmware (South East Asia)

sdcard on hc 3.1

Hi . I have a wifi only xoom . Just upgraded to hc3.1
I saw many threads in here with sd issues in hc3.1 and how to fix
but some are saying it could brick the xoom
so , I want to know the good way to do that .
which kernel and boot.img should I use ?
please provide me with their links
You already have 3.1 installed so follow this guide only from step 4. You don't need to do steps 1-3.

The instructions Burden gave you above are correct, just follow each set as closely as you can and you will be fine. THe key steps are 1) Unlocking the Xoom, 2) Rooting the Xoom, 3) Installing Clockwork Mod and 4) Installing the Tiamat Boot image and Kernel.
As for bricking your Xoom due to the SD card, don't worry the Xoom is nearly unbrickable. The only way I know of to do that is by trying to Partition the SD card using Clockwork Mod, so avoid that. Word to the wise...NEVER try to partition your SD card on the Xoom, there is no need to do it.
I did download and installed the kernel . but still my xoom dose not see the sdcard . I created folders with sdcard2 and external but same thing nothing changed

Low memory problem

Hi people! I'm sorry if this has been discussed before, I searched but couldn't find the topic about that. If there is one, please direct me there. Thanks!
So, my friend has a ChaCha, and she gets the low memory msg all the time. She can't install anything, only having ~80MB of space taken (when calculated) although the phone says that more than 130MB is taken. She can't open Gtalk or Gmail - the phone is slower than imaginable! We wiped the cash from the Apps Settings, checked and everything possible is on the SD card, but still... The phone is not rooted nor anything.
Thanks in advance!
Link2sd app
Be carrefull !!
But the phone itself offers the option of installing a part of the app on sdcard - why then the link2sd? Can it be that the phone alone isn't doing the job properly?
Thread cleaned
OK, guys, I've cleaned this thread.
Please watch your language in the future or there will be consequences. You know who you are.

Link2sd is one option. When you use native a2sd (built in) it doesn't move everything on sd, just part of application. The best way is too flash one of many custom roms that have ability to install scripts that will move all apps to ext partition. CM mods support those scripts (IMO the best one to use is CronMod Script - D2EXT and INT2EXT (+)), there are also many stock based custom roms that has dta2sd preinstalled.
Of course you need to be rooted and you need to partition your sd-card in order to do that.
Regards
didije, can you please tell me how to root your phone and install this partition thingy onto the SD CARD without losing the stock rom? I like sense widgets and the stock rom very much!

After you unlock the bootloader flash recovery and to root it install this zip though recovery.
On a stock rom (stock kernel) you can only use apps such as link2sd. And there are many threads on partitioning sd-card, just google it. The easiest way is to partition from advanced menu in clockwork recovery but I am not sure if partitioning through clockworkmod recovery works with link2sd.

[Q] How to install a custom recovery on SGH-I857??

Hi;
i am a noob in the android world and i need a help
i have a sammsung SGH-I857 with 2.2.2 android version & 2.6.332.9-perf karnel version which is rooted
I want to release the maximum possible space of internal phone memoir because it small (177MO ONLY) 89.30 MB of space it used.
I would move them to the SD card (8GB) or remove them if it's possible ,but I do not know how knowing that my phone has never been changed at the ROM or Kernel or Recovery or anything like that
I also read that before anything i should use a custom recovery and make a backup of my current set up, so in case something gets messed up, i can restore the backup and be as good as new!,then install a ROM that can do what I want if it's possible
the problem is that I can not find how I did lots of research, but I have not found those for SGH-I857
so if you could tel me how ,done please & thank you in advance

First, you need to install Mount2SD or Link2SD, it will link (replace) your apps to SDcard. You can find it Mount2SD here and then you need to partitioning your SDcard first, just follow this instruction and you also get Link2Sd from here. I guess these apps don't need custom ROM or kernel to work. But custom recovery, like CWM or TWRP is necessary needed to do full backup (Nandroid Backup) of your current stock ROM.
Well, for custom recovery you can try ROM Manager (It's free app on Play Store), it will help you to install CWM Recovery. Or you can try TWRP Manager (it's also free app on Play Store) to play with custom recovery by TWRP.
Good Luck.
DO WITH YOUR OWN RISK.​

There is no current custom recovery solution for the Samsung DoubleTime (SGH-I857).
I am however trying to make this exist as well as a whole other ROM option that may allow Gingerbread to be ran on the device. So far the base of operations has been the thread in which Dardour has posted a link to above. That however seems to be broken. So here it is again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2580216

[Q] Root for Android 4.2.2

Hello!
I'm new to XDA Developers but I have some knowledge about what's happening in here.
I have this device (Lenovo A526) which I bought just last month, it has 4 GB internal memory but half of it is used in system apps and files.
After a month (now) I used up all my free space so I decided to buy a 16 GB SD Card so I could download more apps and store more files.
I was about to move my apps to my SD Card but I could not find the "Move to SD" option. Well, this option used to be there in my previous
devices. What happened? I remembered that I had this app called Android Assistant and one of its features is to move apps to SD Card. I
downloaded it and tried to move apps to SD Card but it would just redirect me to Settings>Apps>Certain App where I could not find the
"Move to SD" option. I tried several apps but none worked, they all do the same. I have searched Google for solutions and I found two more
options; using Android SDK, and rooting. I tried using the SDK first. It did not go as it is expected, my device could not be detected. I tried
rooting my device but I could not find anything that is exactly for my device.
I am willing to root my device. I tried using update.zip, framaroot and some computer programs but none worked. I found ways to root some
devices like Samsung, LG, Sony, etc. But none for Lenovo A526. My device is running Android 4.2.2 Jelly bean. I need help. If there is anything
people here could suggest, it would be well appreciated.
*for those who don't wanna read, I'm looking for a way to root my Lenovo A526. Or if you have any suggestions, I would just want to move my apps to my SD Card or maybe even swap it. Device is running Android 4.2.2 Jelly bean
For those who are willing to help and looking for more information about my device, please feel free to ask.
Thank you!

Hi,
if you can flash zip via recovery or fastboot, download supersu zip file here: http://download.chainfire.eu/589/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.zip
Then go into recovery, install zip and choose the zip file in sd card.
Then you can enjoy root ^^
Hope this helps you!

I hope this works. I've tried installing other zips via recovery before, but no luck. It would always give me "Installation aborted!"

How to (basic) guide for flashing roms etc

Hi there,
I am running a stock lg g pro 2 d838, and am constantly battling with the onboard storage. Ive got a 128gb memory card, but some apps just cant be moved.
I was wondering if someone were able to provide me with a step by step guide (I dont have any knowledge or experience with this) for the easiest way to be able to use my phones sd card for all apps etc.
Everytime I look at rooting, custom roms guide they appear to be written for those that already know.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi, why would you want to move all apps to sd card? I am not sure if you can do that.
You properly need root to be able to do it, so you have to root your phone first.
I think you need app on play store to move apps to sd card, you can search for it. I don't have a name of the app but I know there is app for that, it might need need as I said.
