Why don't you buy an sd-card?

I suppose you can enter your phone with USB link to your pc. Then your phone will seen as external disc and you can add documents on it.
Hit thanks button if I helped you.

Try....
SD/DCIM/.thumbnails
I've found deleted pics in there that weren't in the gallery.

Those are as the name implies, only thumbnails.
Have a look, delete a photo and check that string and you'll see its still in there, then move it back with an explorer.

please search before you post there are a lot of threads about this here.
goto dev section and look for the thread [odid/cwm] gb ext4 starter pack
@jdubb. Like i said. Im on my phone. And the xda app isnt exactly the best thing to search with (. no access to a computer. Yet.

Um, the Web browsers are full browsers. The same search capabilities exists on the phone as the PC. almost everyone of your threads posted , you could have found the answers to your questions. Also almost all of your
threads are posted in the wrong section and start out with an apology first which makes me think you know exactly what you're doing.

You should try to get a spare SD card. Let me tell you. It's a TOTAL PITA to copy all the files back into the SD card (had to do it two or three times). I wanted to shoot laser beams at my phone.
Used my 2gb sd card. But i wanted to figure out what the problem was. So i tried like 5 times. THen figured out that i had to delete my voodoo folder already existing on my 32 gb sd. :x. Hope this helps other people. And thanks to everyone who helped me with this

Why not just make poweramp look in the external_sd instead if mnt/external_sd
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
It looks for sdcard/external_sd by default, cant change it

Go into power amp setting and change the folder. To where you put your music although I am a big CM fan that was one of the main reason why I don't use it that much. Anymore

in my experience poweramp doesnt play too well with symlinks. try to use true paths if possible.

Expanding USB Storage? I don't know how, but if you say swap SD Card with external SD Card, i know how (maybe).
Try using Topdroid's vold.fstab tweak, maybe that will work. If you are on CM10, i can give the app that always work.
Its okay now, cm9 has an option to basically set the ext SD as USB storage

Is it possible App 2 ext SD?

Anyone know how to move app data to external SD? I have tried Directory Bind but it the apps can't find the data and just start to download to the internal SD again.
Thanks

If you mean games data try "gl2sd" from the play store .
Yeah I think xbsa included it in his ROM but it wasn't working for me. I will try it again.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
Directory bind works well for me. You just have to make sure the binding is active. Served me well on gb, gonna miss it on my unrooted ics
Gl2sd was horrible. It worked the first time then never again. For directory bind make sure you have the paths in the right boxes and when the entry is on the list of bindings make sure you tap on the disc icon to make it green

I did all that but still no luck. I will try again. No joy with GL either

One thing about gl2sd, make sure you start your game through it rather than the launcher icon

Just tried it with Samurai vs Zombies 2 and it moved the app data but failed to mount when I tried to open it.
Will try again with Directory Bind

Daft question but you ARE rooted arent you?
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
Yes mate. Everything runs as it should - Directory Bind creates a new folder on my SD card, says its deleting original files and the floppy disk symbol turns green. But the files aren't deleted from the original folder and when I delete them, the app doesn't work.
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
I never chose the auto option. I moced the files using es file explorer and then created the directory bind

I tried that too but I shall try again.

Oh, and i also left the original directories (tho empty) where they were
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
I'm thick as two short planks.
Got it working. I was confused because the data was in both the source directory and the target directory. I didn't stop to think that the file manager I was using was also tricked by the mapping. Easy way to check was to unbind them and sure enough, the data vanished from one directory.
For the record, I didn't need to leave a source folder. And it maps both ways, reading and writing. Great tool.
Thanks for your help and patience
