Games installed on external sd card

Hey guys,
Is there a way to install my games (gameloft) into the external sd card instead of the internal?

You can partitian your SD card to store apps on it and transfer them from your internal to external memory

If you're rooted you can go to Rom Manager and do it there... You can go into manage apps and move them to your MicroSD card... There's also an app called app2sd that can move them there as well

[Q] app folders to external SD

hi
I just bought a O3D and I'm wondering how can I make the apps to locate all the app folders (folders created by each app in sd) with the external sd, so far is using the internal one but that's not good can't move everything to the phone
thanks in advance

Apps2sd on our 10.1

Queations to all....
Should a App2sd app be able to work on our Notes???
The reason im asking is because I had issues getting my 64g card to mount (ended up having to flash a recent OTA update from Samfirmware.com). I then wanted to move some of my apps to the 64g card but App 2 SD from the market says -
"The device does not have a real primary external storage, or the primary extremal storage is emulated. Moving app to SD may not be supported by this device. "
Is this normal? I have never come across this before on any Android device before! Or is it something to do with the 64g card? or the Notes file tree?

Yes it's normal. Samsung make some different approach here.
In my perspective when you used to choose "move to sdcard" in apps manager, the apps move from internal memory to internal storage (/sdcard).
(External microSD card is not on discussion so far, im only talking about tablet internal storage).
Now by default in Samsung devices all apps are going to /sdcard, so you dont have to move them beacuse the are alreday there.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
The solution for me (I have white SGN 10.1 16GB) is use DirectoryBind, i can have 20+ GB of games in external microSD Card.

Think your correct, makes sense anyway!!!
Could you elaborate more on this directory Bind thing you mentioned? ??

DirectoryBind main feature is to link/bind folders with data that are in external micro sd card, to empty folders with the same name that must be in /sdcard/Android/data or /sdcard/Android/obb. So games and apps thinks they're using internal storage but in fact data is in external micro sd card. This way you save the 11 gb reserved for storage.

Hi, you can make an ext partition in your external sd card, mount it by apps like link2sd or move2sd and moving application on it.

[Completed] Asus phonepad 7 use internal storage as sd card...

HI to all...
I ve made a lot of search but no luck!The phonepad saves and moves all apps to a path /storage/emulated/legacy and i discover it with Link2SD and my sd card is empty.
When i use the app manager to move the apps into sd card it seems that they are already in sd...It created an sd on internal storage and use it like an external sd card...How can i fix it?I m getting mad with it!!!
