[Q] Install apps to sd card? - HTC ChaCha

Hi all
I would like to intsall all apps to my SD Card, because the internal memory of this phone isn't so much. I would like to use my SD Card for default install location. Is there any way to do it?

please refer to this post, everything you need for chacha
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255107
ps: unless we have a CM7 rom for chacha, or we have to move the apps to SD card after installation

The suggested Low memory actions there are not looking good to me. Factory data reset will clear all my accounts and setup and one day i'll get the message again.
I want to solve the problem, not to find an alternate solution
So basically I still would like to install all my apps on my SD Storage.
ps
Thanks for the thread.

[Q] Apps in SD card and custom ROMs

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this has been asked before.
I'm using Virtuous Unity 1.31. Let say I have several apps installed and I move them (via manage applications) to the SD card. All works fine.
Let's say a new version comes out and I flash the new ROM, doing a full data and cache wipe in the process.
When I re-install all the apps, they'll be installed in the phone memory by default, and not the SD card. Does this mean that the app data on the SD card from the previous install is redundant, since the OS will presumably recognise the app in the phone memory. Is there any way to determine which apps were moved to the SD card and subsequently, free up the space?
Cheers,
Bump?
Any one with any ideas? Or is my original post confusing? ;p

Correct me if i'm wrong, but your problem is that you want to restore your data app from sd card and your are not sure cause they are already in phone memory? Or something different ? Because if you only want to put your apps from phone storage in sd-card again you can do it, you'll overwrite the older same apps..
You can try the app in my signature (SD Maid) to free up space.

Hanisa, my problem is that before I flash a new ROM, I usually do a wipe, which means when the new ROM is flashed in, it'll be "as stock" without any of my apps.
When I restore all my apps, either using Titanium Backup or the Android Marketplace, they'll be installed into the phone memory by default.
If for example I have Minisquadron installed and moved to the SD card before the wipe, when I re-install it, it will be in the phone memory by default. This means the data already on the SD card (before the wipe) is just wasted space.

[Q] apps on sd card

Hi,
I want to know if is possible to prevent apps do go to sd-card.
Sometimes I go to application setting and I notice that some apps are on sd card, I didn't moved, so they where moved automatically.
Is there any way to prevent them from going to sd-card automatically?
Sensation has enough memory to have lots of apps on internal memory, so don't need to move them to sd-card.
Some help appreciated...
Thanks

Check out this,
This application has the priority (feature) of installing the application on desired location,

Low Space Problem Fix

Without root and without an unlock bootloader...my phone reads S=On and is supposedly network unlocked A108B Black model (just purchased on Ebay)...is there anyway to completely move apps to the SD? I hit "Move To SD" under manage applications and it sends some of the MB size to the SD, but part of it still remains on the internal space and I know this because the internal MB's keep getting lower and lower. It's gotten so low < 1MB that now I can't even download any more apps that can or will run on the SD because it says there's insufficient space...that and the HTC clean cache window keeps popping up...any way to prevent this from happening? AND to completely move/install apps that are SD moveable to the SD card and get them off the internal space? Or an app that will default from using internal space and move all installs and data directly onto the SD? I have 1.3 GB open on there..it's been a pain trying to get this thing to run right...any suggestions besides the "factory data reset" (which I've tried) that helps with this? Do I just need to root/unlock booter? or will that mess up my unlocked phone?
Anyway that I can install apps onto the SD from my computer and then put the SD card into my phone and it'll read them from there?
Also...all these bloatware apps that are installed..without root...is there anything I can download that will wipe them off the phone...or is there anyway I can get into a file manager and delete unnecessary files/apps off?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You should look under HTC Android developers forum for detailed guides how to root your device and how to install custom (read: CWM) recovery.
After that you should make second primary ext2 partition on your SD card (size from 512MiB to 1GiB, it's up to you) and install Link2SD from Google Play Store.
With this apk you' ll never have problems with low internal storage because it creates links of apks to SD card (data, dalvik cache...).
Sent from my HTC ChaCha A810e using xda app-developers app
1. Just Link2sd apk if it's complicated...
2. ehh, and don't install Google Currents, 'til they Fix their app, to make the cache moves to the SD instead of internal cache.
thank you.

I try Link2sd. It's work well, but the problem with this program that first time download the program the internal memory and after move to sd card. It isn't problem if the program is small, but the program is bigger the device don't allow download the program.
So i interested in an idea that the phone see the sd card like internal card.

Hi,
your question is very specific to certain level of development. I suggest that you have a look thru the Android general sections for information.

How to move apps to SD Card

Hello, I just got a new A20 and I downloaded all the apps that I had on my previous phone to my new one. However for some reason, even though the phone does detect my SD Card (I can access the files there without problem) it doesn't let me move apps to the SD card. I always do this with every app I can to liberate space so I'd like to do it on my new phone too. Does anyone know if you have to activate it somewhere?
I guess you could try the " Force allow apps on external " in developer options.
You can install App2sd and link app data to sd card
Bouth answers are true ringers theres nothing technical to it i suggest a top grade sd card
Now i see what you ment its imposible dor some reason or other well not imposible but highly complicated to move apps and obb data to sd card
