Post gingerbread, google has removed the support to move apps to SD card. Only Samsung is giving that option to Galaxy S4 after 4.2.2 update

what do you mean by post gingerbread? i can still move my apps to sd card (some of them cant cause move option grayed out) in ICS, heck i can still move my app to sd card in jellybean as u can see from my screenshot above taken from my htc desire x running jellybean 4.1.2.
im confused. so therefore your saying there are no 'move' option if you go to settings>apps>any third party app>move option on your sony phone?
can you pls confirm this by downloading the app AppMgr iii from play store and post me a screenshot of 'movable' from your xperia L?

There is no option dude. By sd card maybe your DX is giving you option to move your app to internal storage from device memory.

what if i root xperia L and use third party app like Link2sd to force move any app to sd with android native app2sd? can it worked?
im not talking of creating a second partition to use link2sd no i meant i use link2sd app only for the native app2sd method. because with root, you can force move any app to sd with that app link2sd. can it be done with xperia L?
as you can see screenshot above, the app AngryBusters are saved on my phone storage and it originally cannot be moved to sd card because the 'move' option from the app info are grayed out. but with root, and link2sd app, i can force move it to my SD.

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2368262 It switches your internal memory with ur sd card. So moving apps to internal memory is actually moving to sdcard.

In link2sd, there is a new option where you can see encrypted apps (jb only), and cannot move it. But, create link somehow works, moving it link2sd way.

I am not sure if this is the same problem as the OP described (i will repost if necessary), but i am having a similar problem where the phone is always out of space for app updates and new installs. It also re optimises all the apps on reboot and the strings that name all the storage devices are wrong.
Personally as a PC guy it sounds like the apps are being installed to the phones RAM (or equiv) and am wondering if anyone could comment on my hypothesis and provide a possible fix.

[URGANT]I727, want to remove partition

So I have two phones, a note 2 i317 and a skyrocket i727 running cm 10.2. I recently flashed cm and with that I went around to installing my apps. And after installing just a few apps, and I get the error, "insufficient storage available". I look in my storage section in settings and I discover two internal partitions, both labeled internal storage. One has 1.97GB available and one with 11.24 GB available. The apps seem to install only in the smaller of the two partitions. And in my manage apps section there is an option to move apps to SD card even though there is no SD card inserted. Of course all apps don't support SD card moving so this creates a problom. How do I remove one of these partitions so I can install more apps? View attachment 2323488View attachment 2323490

XE Low On Space

Hi, I recently purchased an Xperia E from Immix. After logging into Google, about 10 apps were installed from my last android phone. Nothing too big, but now I'm already down to <100Mb of free space left. I then moved all personal apps to my SD card. Now I'm up just barely above 100Mb of internal storage available. Is this normal for the default ROM? Just a note: Immix doesn't install any clutterware on their own.
Thanks in advance,
Gage

I have a weird problem. I am using my Xperia L, running 4.2.2 with the latest officia

I have a weird problem. I am using my Xperia L, running 4.2.2(Out of The Box) with the latest official Firmware. Its not rooted.
4.2.2+ supports moving Apps to SD without Root.
I have Noticed one thing. If youre going to Buy a New Phone Running 4.2.2+, If you start the phone for the first time(just after buying), with no memory card, after youve switched on the phone and try to move Apps to SD, it wont Happen!! The apps will only move to the Internal Storage.
But,if you start the phone(For the First Time) with memory card Inserted, then it will recognize the mem Card as Your external storage. From settings now you can move Apps to SD.
Why does this Happen??
Can anyone help me to solve this??
Thank You in Advance.

The problem is weird indeed... never heard of it..
1. Are you trying to move the same app in both the phones?
2. Ig.you really want it.. just put your mmc and factory reset

Factory reset Is an option i Know but I wanted to Know if Other solutions Existed.
I tested It with Samsung Galaxy S Duos 2 and Moto E , by Inserting the Mem card first, Then Starting the Phone (for the First time). For Both of the phones, the Mem card was taken as the external and apps could be the Moved to SD via Settings.
But for my Xperia L, I didnt insert the Memory card and switched it on(just after buying) . When I inserted the Mem Card later, and tried to Move Movable apps to SD, the apps would only move to The Internal Memory.
Are u interested in rooting? If yes I'd suggest do that.. many advantages of rooting ... sorry for diverting from main question :/

Rooting is Okay for Me. My a89 Was Rooted.:laugh: But I Thought of Using my Xperia L for Sometime Before Rooting it and Unlocking The Bootloader. Even Cyanogenmod 11 with 4.4.2 Kitkat is available for my phone.
I think u should take a step ahead and root it.
Go for kitkat.. you'll love it.. and share your experience
