You can use folder mounthttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en app to mount large files in internal storage to external storage. It works perfectly!

Hi Friends,
I'm new to forum and bought new Galaxy R.
The partition in phone is divided into 3
1. phone memory 1.9 gb
2. USB storage 3.7 gb
3. My SD card 7.4 gb
Now the problem is I have download games and my USB storage is full.
I also I tried copying to SD card and playing it. but didn't work.
Since, This is my new phone I don't wanna root at early level since the company warranty is void if it is rooted as I have heard from friends.
I need help to copy into SD card and play without rooting
or atleast my game recognise the path of sd card where i have transferred.
I have seen previous post and tried many soft like apps2sd, etc.. nothing worked.
any alt solutions to copy in SD and play without rooting...
Thanks in advance..
Also when I try to transfer the files to SD Card using manager or other soft's but failed.
For example: Like I tried moving Gameloft Real football 2012 to SD Card. It only copies some 10 or 12 mb file which we download from market not the full files which we download later (i.e approx 400 mb)..

I used GL to SD which can move huge data that we downloaded later into SD card.
but to me it is a bit confusing.. and sometimes i got 2 identical data both in my SD card and USB Storage.. im not sure if GL to SD support backup if you change your phone..

GL TO SD requires root. As given in the instructions, and i and the original poster doesn't want root.
Any other feasible option?

Hi Friends,
I found some important stuff regarding the USB Storage & SD card..
This is for "Non-rooted" mobile phones.
I installed ES file explorer & X-plore and also few other apps.. This is to check how arrangement of file system are in the phone.
Now what i absorbed is, In the display of phone memory it shows 1.9gb and for SD Card memory it shows 4.9gb which is USB storage not the one which I have installed 8gb SD Card.
So its like this..
" /mnt/sdcard " This is for USB 4gb space (Non extendable)
" /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ " This is for my 8gb sd card (Extendable)
Hence, when ever any App wants to download additional data it goes to USB Storage (I.e /mnt/sdcard ) not to SD 8gb expandable storage card.
I want to configure or use the command to make the application to choose default location as " /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/ " to save in my extendable memory card without rooting.
IS THIS POSSIBLE... Please do let me know from the experts...
THANK YOU..
From what i have seen , u need a shadow copy or u need to bind the folders in some way, which requires root... I see no other way...

I've rooted and installed gapps onto my kids Nabi 2 tablet that he got for Christmas, I just got a 32GB MicroSD card so I can move all apps to the SD card and use the SD card for apps so I don't run out of internal memory. I don't see how to move the Apps to the SD card, can someone tell me how to do this or if it's possible? I did a little research on this and it looks like there might be an app that does this, but I'm not too familiar with it. You used to be able to just go into to manage your apps and select move to SD.
I tried posting to the root instructions thread but apparently I'm too new to post ona developers thread. Thanks for any info.
Anybody have an answer??

Thanks for the reply, is that the only way to move apps over to an external SD card nowadays is using a 3rd party app?
It was so nice before to just go into the Apps section within settings and move choose "Move to SD".

Not on the current configuration it doesn't. Nabi2 has been updated to Android 4.1.1, with Gapps, and I think the dunderheads at Fuhu went out of their way to make sure you couldn't get extra space on their P.o.S. tablet.
Hello,
My One SV is Taiwan's version, Android 4.2.2,Sense 5,rooted & S-Off
I have some problems with the phone storage.
Because the phone storage is divided into 2 parts in Taiwan's version,just like the attachment.(I didn't know whether it also divided into 2 parts in other versions)
The two parts are:
1.APP Storage,3.85GB
2.Phone Storage,4.15GB
Can I enlarge the APP Storage?Or can I clean the "OTHER DATA"in the App storage?
(Just like the attachment,2.7GB of OTHERS,Can I use Root browser or some other way to clean it?)
Because it shows that I don't have enough app storage to sync.
Oh,by the way,I have APP2SD,and move most of APPs to SD(I divided the SD card into two parts:FAT32&NTFS,and the APPs are in the FAT32 part)
Thanks.

Oh,this is a good way to enlarge the storage. =)
but it can only swap the "internal storage(4.15g)",can't change the "app storage(3.85g)"
But i have another question,
can i clean the data in the 3.85gb part of storage?
i think that it is some way to clean the garbage data in that part.
Thank you in advance. =)

No,it is impossible to use external SD card to install apps WITHOUT ROOTING.
If you have rooted it,you can use the app "Link2SD",and move the apps to external SD card.
The internal storage in my xperia l is nearly full.
And I want to use link2sd to increase the memory.
But whatever I partition the sd card to ext2,3 or Fat32 it would cause the boot loop until I remove the sd card:crying::crying:
Does anyone have the solution?
The sd card is Kingston 32GB C10.
Thanks for your answers!
You can use FolderMount app from market to move the biggest files in sd-card,like gameloft game data.I got 6gb of game data in sd-card and im playing games without problem(and my internal is on 30%).

Why don't you check my thread . it'll help you will all your memory problems.
if you still have any query, do ask me.
Link2sd isn't a very good way of linking memory.
You can use titanium backup to move apps in sdcard by force.

Yes, folder mount is made to transfer data especially for games which have game data in Gbs or Mbs. So if your game application is 24mb and game data of 2gb, you can move only 2gb data but not 24mb with folder mount.
You can check app2sd which moves app to SD card if application supports.Check it at Google play.
Titanium backup requires root(hack) to work. If your phone's rooted, you can transfer app to SD regardless if it is supported by application or not.

Hello,
I have SanDisk 8GB microsd card Class 2. My phone is Samsung Galaxy Core 2 (SM-G355).
My phone total storage is 4gb out of which 1.82 gb is used for phone and others for apps and my own files.
Currently my microsd is only 8gb drive in my phone ( only 1 partition now )
I want to install asphalt 8, modern combat 5, gta sa ( total about 4 or 5 GB). My sd card have 8 gb space so i want to install my apps in my sd card and not in my little phone memory. I am unable to do it myself and it is no use of sd card with 7.4 GB free of my sd card, i want it for apps.
I do not have a sd card reader for my pc so is there anyway i can do it via phone using twrp or cwm or link2d (free) ?
I have put some pics which tell about my phone and sd card in attachment (please see)
Thanks,

The best way is to do it in phone app manager.
You can move apps from downloaded section not allready on your SDCard ( internal ) to external (extSDCard).
Click on the app and use the enabled Move to the SdCard option button.
The second way is to use ADB shell command adb shell pm set-install-location 2.
Code:
pm get-install-location: returns the current install location.
0 [auto]: Let system decide the best location
1 [internal]: Install on internal device storage
2 [external]: Install on external media
pm set-install-location: changes the default install location.
NOTE: this is only intended for debugging; using this can cause
applications to break and other undersireable behavior.
0 [auto]: Let system decide the best location
1 [internal]: Install on internal device storage
2 [external]: Install on external media

Thank you Stratos for you help but actually when i move app from appmanager it moves only 36 mb out of 1.5 GB and the remaining 1 gb obb files are on my internal memory. I do not want to move them, I want to directly install them ONLY on sdcard and the google play / google chrome should not download anything to internal memory. I want my external sdcard to act as my internal memory. Is there any way I can fool my phone ?

Try second options, If U don't know how to do it right, just ask or search xda/google.
Or swap internal with external :

Hi Again,
Thanks for your help. The second option which you provided worked for me to move my apps to sd card and play games but in that case i have to install my apps first in internal memory and then move it to external sd card using GL To SD and i have to mount it everytime i restart phone. I can play games now and install more apps but is there anyway i can install directly say 3gb or 4gb on external without moving ?
Thanks,

Uninstall games.
Use adb/terminal emulator :
pm set-install-location 2
All the instalation will be made from now on external card. Default is 0 (auto)
install game.
As told u can always swap location with @Y300-0100 init.d script if U want from previous post.
The set location does not works. Even when i do it using adb tool and it shows my current install location as external when i install N.O.V.A.3 it says insufficient storage space available ?
:/
Please help me. I do not want to go in much detail about swapping memories cuz it might result in corrupting my sd card/ phone memory or I would end up bricking / bootlooping my phone. Furthermore the link you gave me says that I need a kernel with init.d support . I dont know if i have the kernel with init.d support or not. And I installed Busybox from google play store and not from a script. Will it work ?
Thanks.
