Hello. I have a Samsung galaxy s and android ( I think) froyo 2.21.
How do I install apps into NY external SD card? The micro SD card that i have inserted? Right now I can only install them into phone or internal SD card but i want to transfer them to my external SD card.
Is there an app for it? Or does rooting my phone solve the problem?
THANKS

I guess this is not possible maybe due to Android system. Titanium backup, App2SD and all other applications i know can only transfer to the internal SD and not to external one.
why dont get bigger internal SD card, maybe its still not enough perhaps
no update from thread stater ?
Hi everyone,
I've recently bought samsung galaxy ace 2 phone. And my question is regarding the usb storage and sd card storage. I searched the forum, but couldn't find solution to my problem.
In Galaxy Ace 2, GT-I8160, there are 3 kinds of storage being shown in the phone settings.
1. SD Card (the external sd card, which I've myself inserted in the phone and it is of 8GB)
2. USB Storage which is 1.2GB (which was built in storage I guess)
3. System Storage (which is also of about 1.1GB)
We know in android there are some apps which can be moved to SD Card, not all.
In other phones like my previous phone was HTC, in that phone when I moved an app to SD Card, it was moved to external SD card properly. But in samsung galaxy ace 2, whenever I move any app to SD card, it is moved to the usb storage, and not to the external sd card. And we know the usb storage of this phone is only 1.2GB. I want my apps (which are movable) to be moved to external sd card. What I've noticed, this phone is recognizing the usb storage as sd card.
Even if you go to settings - apps - Sd card, it'll show you the USB storage of 1.2GB, not the storage of my actual external SD card (8GB)
Why is this so? Why is this phone recognizing the usb storage as sd card storage. Why this phone is not recognizing my external sd card as the sd card storage?
Your response will be highly appreciated
Regards,
Omer.
I have the same problem and I just don't know which is which so basically I can't transfer anything.
Do you have the same phone? Samsung Galaxy Ace 2?
I think this is how it works may be. It is treating the USB storage as SD Card and ignoring the external SD card.
This may only be the case with samsung phones, because in HTC, the external sd card was considered as sd card and apps were moved to it.
Anyways I've found the following link regarding this issue, I won't try the solution mentioned in this link, coz it required root and I do not want to root my phone

Try to install samsung kies then connect phone with usb debug on. Troubleshoot to reinstall your usb driver. If this dont work uninstall samsung usb driver at device manager abd connect phone and wait for the computer to make update. Restart pc after process. Ty
If you have issue with full of memory, you can swap memory, http://goo.gl/VnCnYN Just flash with cwm

i use partition sd card : link2sd
Hello,
I have used the swapsd beta app to swap my internal sd card with the external sd card on my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 and now I am getting errors that memory space is not enough.
I’ve tried the default option to swap it back and it is not working.
When I go to view my files I get the error message ‘No SD card inserted’.
I can’t see the external memory nor the phone memory anymore when I plug my phone to my PC.
Please note that my phone is rooted.
Can someone send me the instructions to set it back to default please?
Thanks,
Krjnrj.

bro u have 2 option 1st is too ROOT your phone and than install app2sd app that can move add to sd card with ext.
or you can have move2sd application from play store but it'll not move the entire app to sd card
the best option is to root your phone..
Hi,
I just noticed this morning that my external sd card is not working anymore , at first I thought it was my Samsung galaxy tab2 10.1 that have a problem but I later put the external sd card in my LG Mobile Phone and it same thing, it is not recognised but when I insert the external sd card that I use on my LG Mobile Phone into my Samsung galaxy tab, it worked so I guess , the external sd card I use for my Samsung has gone but I have loads of things on it, PLEASE what can I do to retrieve them from the sd card that is not working.
I will be very grateful for your help.
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. If the card is bad you may not be able to retrieve anything from it. But you can mount the card as a mass storage device on your PC so I'd try some data recovery tools that are available on the internet.
