Sent from my GT-I9082 using Tapatalk 2

I am new to Android os and this forum as well so I would be really glad if anyone of you would be kind enough to help.
My Galaxy Grand has 8gb memory of which only 4gb is available to the user and I am left with just 800mb space left, I would like to know if anyone of you can let me know a way to transfer my apps to sd card, also I have hears that one can convert sd card to internal memory after rooting, is that possible, if yes then plese let me know how, also is it possible to transfer apps to sd card without rooting if so plsase let me know how, I would be eagerly looking for a reply.

I'm not really familiar with that device but on most you can grab App2Sd from Google Play and it's self explanatory from there, but some devices (like mine) don't et you move apps to the SD Card, but you can move everything else there
And I'm no moderator, but I'm not so sure this isn't the right section for your question, I think it belongs in Q and A

Since my cell runs on Android 4.1.2 Jelly Beans hence App to sd is not working on it, is there any other option to do so.

After rooting you can use Directory Bind to link your internal/external storage, but that's not truly moving them to the SD Card, but I think it's the closest you can get. I don't bother with it, I just move all my big files to my SD Card so I have space for my APK's on my internal storage

without rooting u cant have memory swap..root ur grand and install init.d support. and reboot then install this http://d-h.st/AGR and gain reboot. this will convert external memory to internal and internal to external automatically.
use http://galaxygrandcenter.blogspot.in/2013/03/warning-it-will-void-your-warranty-and.html to root.
and this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39510406&postcount=1 to add init.d

Thank you sir for the help, I have succesfully rooted my phone throught that guide,though there was a little trouble geeting the Clock Work Mode Recovery but finally got it.
Sir can you tell me the actual usage of CWM, can i get backup of my present status through this mode or do i need to use some app like Titanium Backup pro for that purpose and what info would actually be backed up, like would it store info of the present firmware and is the backup point created in the internal memory or the sd card.
Also sir can you please tell me that if I swap my 32gb ext sd card with 4gb internal memory then when I want to get my phone back to normal mode then how am I gonna do so, I mean the sd card would have let's say some 25gb apps and I want to put the phone back to normal, I mean unswap it then how would it be possible as my internal memory would be only 4 gb, will I have to delete apps or use some recovery option, please make that clear, thank you sir for all your help.

How to run apps on a microSD card for the S4

I came across this today and thought I'd share it. Let me know what you think guys.......
Ooops! Check out thedroidguy(dot)com. I can't post links yet!
The app is called AppMgr Pro III and the article was written yesterday!

Not working. Please test before post it.

No.
Does not work.
The old name is app2sd.
It is nothing more than a more convenient interface for the normal move to SD feature on android.
For Samsung devices, it will only move to internal SD.
You will need root access to deal with such things properly to the external SD.
Search for link2sd or FolderMount instead, or flash some mod that switches the internal and external SD.

Is there any application that can move apps to sd card without root permision?

With the S3 there was a mod, that the micro sd became the "internal" memory and vice versa. Perhaps we will see this for the S4 as well

OK! I just rooted my Galaxy S4 yesterday so I'm hoping that will broaden my chances of finding something that works!

Solution found!
AlvTellez said:
I hate that Samsung does this crap forcing you to buy the more expensive phone because you can't install apps on the SD card, it's ridiculous to sell several storage options when you can expand with your SD card anyway, it's also ridiculous that you have 9GB available from 16GB.

There is a working solution which will also update the apps directly on the SD card. Since I can't post links yet the app is called 'FolderMount' search for a thread called '[How to] Moving Apps to SD Card' by Eambo.

[Q] How to unlock external SD card from read only mode for Samsung SII Plus

Format the sdcard in fat32. Maybe your sd is 64GB exFat that needs a special kernel support

Thank you for your reply. The volume of my SD card is 16GB in FAT32 format. Mentioned problems may include with the right of permission to beyond read only mode and setting of android system. Because the photo records is taken by internal machine that can be set to store in external SD card. This kinds of problem have already occurred in Samsung several series machine. Meanwhile, this is a complicated problem beyond my limited knowledge. Anyway, thank a lots:laugh:

Root your phone.
Install Folder Mount.
Move everything to SD.

Thank you for reply. I have rooted my machine already and trying this right now. But would like to know that except this method. Any method could save data (i.e. photos, installed app and media) to external SD card freely? Just like using of App 2 SD. And then, any method to get the right of permission to beyond read only mode and setting of android system? I would like to fix this problem completely and let it return to S II mode. Anyway thank you very much :laugh:

For the moment i don't think there is a way to move apps to SD. Only link 2 sd
Sent from my GT-I9105P Hypervitaminized

Well Folder Mount isn't free.
And Apps to SD didn't work for me. Neither did Link 2 Sd work until I created a partition on my SD card (later I removed the partition as I didn't want to spoil my new card and its performance).
You can install apps on internal and then later on move it freely to SD card. It would move all data folder.
I'm doing this and I have rooted phone with stock rom.

Well tap on the (+) button and you will have a window asking for
1. Folder name to be kept.
2. files to be moved.
3.where the files should be.
Select the following and press mount. It will start moving files and then mount.

[Q] How to move apps to sd card?

Hi,
I just got a HTC One SV and I've installed all of my apps on my previous phone to this phone. But there's a problem... Its running out of memory. I just cant seem to find any way of moving them to the sd card. It just moves it to phone storage and i only have 4gb of memory. My sd card is 16gb so ive got plenty of space on it. Please help me find a way of moving it to the sd card.
Thanks soooo much!!!!

No, you need root. Unfortunately they made the rom in a way that keeps you from moving apps to the SD card.

I might have, I'm not sure exactly what you meant ..I thought you were saying that it has been there since ics that you can't move programs to the SD card. They did bring that feature back in 4.2 though.

There's no option to move apps to the actual SD card, just between the internal storage and phone storage ..they call the internal storage the SD card. I've talked to them on the phone too ..most of them don't know what they are talking about.
On a side note a lot of people have this problem with a lot of other phones.

External SD card problem

Hello! I think that needs another topic.
A small question about the problem with SD card on the p5100.
As of 4.1 or 4.2 google has introduced the 'cool' feature - multi-profile system.
Okay, everything is good, but with this 'cool' feature they have changed something with SD cards. Now internal memory is divided to the internal memory and internal SD-card which is considered as an external SD card. All apps are installed there, and my external SD card (32 gb) is now useless. Ofc, I can explore it on a file explorer, but the system thinks it is the second SD card and don't want to move any apps there.
And that's the problem. All apps are instaled on the internal-external SD card and the free-space is.. You know.
I can't update my apps, I can't download new apps - no memory alert.
Cyanogenmod nightly 10.2
So, is there any way to fix it, like Samsung has done to SGS3?
It's getting everything out of me.
On my phone everything is ok, but on the tablet.. :/
And please don't say google it.
I'm searching for this fix for.. months. Can't find anything so posted here.

Already tried.
"App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your Device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.
That's the problem.
Apps are already installed on the SD card but the wrong one.
Anyway, the emulated SD card has 10 GB free space, the 'proper' SD card has 25GB free.
When I try to update something on G Play, or install any app from my explorer - error, no enough free space.
Oh come on.
i.imgur.com/hWzliZS.png
Where is that "no enough free space"?
For a 200 KB update?!
/edit:
And I think that 'canceling the emulation' of the internal SD card will do a lot for me.. But how. :/

I don't see any app called 'root & clean master'. Anyway can't install any app because I 'don't have enough space'.

Check your internal memory using a pc and see exactly what you have stored there. Over 10GB should be enough for a 200KB update. I suspect something is wrong with your tablet.

Anyway, hard reseted. You can close the topic.

I just got a p3110 last week and have this same issue, Its only a 8gb and I want to install apps to the sd and it will not, did you fix yours? how?

You cannot move or install apps to the external sd card. Only the internal storage. There are methods if you are rooted. Read down the forum topics. There are a few threads discussing this. But stock tablets do not install apps to the external sd card.

Install link2sd
Create a new ext3 partition of desired size in ur external sd using mini partition tool.
Then use this partition to move all your apps using link2sd...
I had done this procedure in my old galaxy y because it had very less internal storage....
I haven't checked it on my tab though... but why don't u give it a try...
