I have a US Cellular HTC Desire CDMA with ClockworkMod 2.5.0.9 and a properly formatted/partitioned ext4 SD Card, and I've been on every forum i could find including this one for about 5 hours, and maybe im just a total moron but i cannot get the Apps2SD figured out.
Heck, I can't even find it. They aren't transferring automatically, and I've read its supposed to be in Settings>Applications, but i can't find it, and can't get my apps to my SD Card.
I apologize that I'm an idiot, and thank you for your help in advance.
The option is indeed under Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications. Click the App you want to move to SD and the option should be there. Some Apps are not compatible with Apps2SD, however and cannot be moved.
I also remember hearing that there was a way to "trick" i guess you'd say, the phone into installing apps onto the SD and not know that it was even doing it.
Then you could have all your apps on the SD automatically and not have to transfer them one at a time
I don't really know about that trick other than hearing that it exists...apps2sd is really if I remember right what the .android_secure folder on your SD card is and its created everytime FroYo mounts the SD. It doesn't take up space unless you use it though.
Edit: there exists no such setting. Google left it up to the developer to allow his/her app to be moved to the SD card. That's the "official" answer. So until more devs add the code, it generally can't be done yet in most apps.

Would someone mind explaining to me the the sd card in this phone. Just when I thought I had it figured our I put cm7 #47 on and now I am confused again. Where exactly do the apps go that I move to sd. Do they go to the phone partition still?? Also I noticed a thread about switching the internal and external around. Is there a benefit to that?? I also noticed it looks like a lot more things are going on my actual external card now with cm7 then when it was stock. If someone who understands all this would explain it a little I would appreciate it.
(Edit) if I do switch the cards around, does that mean my apps will be moved to the actual external sd??
any way to change these yet
Yeah??
yeah would like to know too. As I currently do not even have a sd card.
also is anyone getting forced closes when trying to record video? It truly is a shame that camcorder looks SO NICE
apologizes for semi hijacking thread they claim to have mounting on this rom.
cant be that hard to fix
ok so i looked in the forums and from the looks of it cm9 n cm10 and all other roms cant or wont make a work arounf for the inability to move app to the ext sd card i read that their someone making some kind of script but i am an idiot and cant understand but i do know how to read and follow instructions, but i dont see how one can apply these work around for the ext sd card fix unless their is a fix in the works and im jus being impaitent, i know people may think 4gb is alot but the fact this tablet can handle big gaming app it takes up alot of space fast. if have a memory card only for only multimedia, it kind of defeat android purpose for innovation when it was the only phone capable of putting apps on a ext sd card, any advise would be appreciated thanks..
here the link to some attempt to fix this issue

I'm rooted, and downloaded GLtoSD (GL2SD) from the market.
It's a 1-2-3 app. Install the app, download the contents of the game/app, load gl2sd, open the menu, click move app, then select the app you want to move, if it's able to be moved it can be. I love it.
I looked into other apps, and other solutions, and this one was the least complex of them all. Sorry I do not have a link handy, I been drinking a bit lol
Been in your boat though, and wanted to help. Give it a shot!
Try (directory bind) their is a thread for it in the forum

Is there a way to move application to SD card on infinity?
Obviously, my intention here is NOT because I need more space, but I am thinking/hypothesizing improved speed of the system with moving browser or other application to the SD card based on http://www.xda-developers.com/android/potential-io-bottleneck-fix-for-the-transformer-prime/ .
I do have Browser2Ram installed, and feel like its helping but not quite the speed I have seen on Galaxy Note 10.1. Also I there are couple other applications I wonder if moving to SD card would help.
Perhaps this is such an obvious thing and may not even work at all, therefore, noone here talks about... But I simply could not find any active topic regarding to this. So I am checking.
Thanks
