I want to have Battlefield 4 Commander on my S2 plus but I don't have enough space left on my internal storage so I placed the OBB file for the app on the SD card but when I launch the app its gone download the OBB file on the internal storage...
Is there a way (WITHOUT ROOT) to make the app detect that I have the file on my SD card?
Google play
Foldermount

try with Gl to SD but need root !!
I also wanted that to be possible a few weeks ago. And it is. But unfortunately you'll have to root your phone. But it's worth it. I rooted my Galaxy sII plus. And I flashed the XXUMBG8 Which is android 4.2.2 jellybean . And it's working better than the stock one. So i recommend you to root it and upgrade your phone a little. Back to thread eeh, the app is called FolderMount and is free on google play. If you need any further help hmu :thumbup:

U could un-compile the app and rewrite the OBB detect code, but that'll require knowledge of Java, so I would recommend rooting. Won't hurt.

You cannot download from the play store then. You would have to download it online somewhere to do this. Do not get a refund for the game though.
Go find the game online Download apk and SD Data. Get either GL to SD or Directory Bind (Google Directory Bind). Put sd data in external sd Android-Obb folder and install the apk. Then use GL to SD or directory bind to bind the game to that location.

which should i bind in source and target
bind where the files usually go and where they are. Might have to make a folder in the regular android-obb which has the name but not the obb?

New thread?
Was going to make a new thread but I found this and this is somewhat newer than all the other "app to external SD" threads.
I have the same problem. I have a 900 MB Internal memory and a 2GB Internal SD. The 2GB internal ran out so I bought a 8GB External and stuck it in. Now my problem is, How do I get the apps to get on the external? I've tried numerous app2sd apps like DroidSail App2SD and App2SD and AppMgr III (App 2 SD).
My phone is rooted and I also tried # pm setInstallLocation 2 but all I get is
[1] Killed pm setInstallLocation 2
Any help?

Use the app Link2SD from play store. Requires root. And also a 2nd partition on your SD card to store apps.
There are many tools which can help you partition your SD card but to on the safe side, backup your SD card data beforehand.
Just go through the description of Link2SD on the play store. It should make things easier
But if i dont want to root the xperia?

The easiest way to partition an sd card is via clockworkmod. Advanced/partition sdcard. And choose what sixze of partition you want. This formats the sd though so backup first.

If you want to move apps without rooting, check out this post. It should help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1162757
But there are some limitations when you don't root. But if you root, you can also get rid of unimportant system apps & bloatware!
Plus rooting is very simple these days thanks to one click rooting apps & brilliant devs!
Choice is yours

Not sure the if the procedure mentioned in the link above works on ICS/JB.
Is there any app that can move installed apps into memory card(extSdCard)? I tried appmgr III and Links2SD but they dont work.I want more free space in internal memory

Is your device root? If yes then Try install folder mount at playstore and your can move the big game datas to extSdCard

1) wrong thread
2)many apps comes with an option to b transferred to ext sd card,whereas some don't ... It completely depends on developer..
Incase u r not rooted,u can only shift those apps to extsd which comes with an option to do so(also note that widgets won't work if app is installed on extsd),to do so go to settings - app manager - on sd card,then check all the apps that don't have a tick next to them,they can be moved
incase u r rooted,u can force any app to sd card,try force2sd or similar app from play store

Don't bother forcing apps to SD just use folder mount and mount the data/odd folder to the SD card keeps apk where it should be and moves large files to SD card mounting the folder to it's original position works well bit slow for me as I'm on an older 32gb memory card I'm upgrading to the sandisk extreme plus 64gb card ordering tomorrow anyway my point being internal SD quick standard SD slow make sure you have a fast enough card or you will get long loading times and possible lag

Have you tried moving some app to sdcard instead of internal memory?
I would tell you exactly where but my own phone is soft bricked at the moment. I think its like Settings -> Apps -> Management or something like that.
If not enough space on the card, copy some things out with your usb cable and free up some space.

Like some phone have an option to choose external or internal sd as default.
well i can use foldermount but it only mounts folder. what if you want to download a game which is 1.5 gb on play store and you have
1 gb free or maximum internal storage then you can never download that game form playstore. so can any one tell me how to exchange internal sd with external. i am using sony xperia e3 d2212 rooted and unlocked bootloader.

Seems like nohow. LOL. It appears by now that switching memory is NOT an option, so all those, suffering, use FOLDERMOUNT app!

as much as i know this can be done using text editor to edit System/etc/vold.fstab
but i don,t know how.
Perhaps we can unmount the internal SD, so that Android only sees the external SD and uses it for all.
The internal SD could be used to extend system memory or as temporary space, swap partition?
I don't know good about Linux. So perhaps it's not possible.
Sony claims that they unified the data partition (where all apps are stored) with the user partition. So I don't know if it is THAT easy to unmount the internal storage. One trick, though, that is around for a bit of time is to swap the mount destination in /system/etc/vold.fstab.

playstore problem is not fixed but i wanna tell you don,t waste your time on app,s that have to mount data like gl to sd or foldermount do
use obb to sd xposed module you just have to copy obb to external sd apps can dettect it. you can have obb in internal or exernal just by copying no need to mount.
and i am still waiting for a solution of playstore if anyone know how to make xposed mdules please make a module to force playstore to detect external sd card free space and download additional obb files to external sd.

You should see this link http://rootmyandroid.org/increase-internal-memory-phone.html
This works for me, still like a charm

Click here I created a simple guide
it's very easy
You can do it by obb on sd ( xposed. Module)
