[Completed] How to move apps from Internal Storage to SD card when the button is disabled? - XDA Assist

Well I have few apps in my phone and I wanna move all of them to my SD card. But for few apps, the "Move to SD card" button is disabled. Do you know why and is it possible to find a solution to this. If you do, do lemme know.
Peace.

Hi,
I would need to know your device make and model number to point you towards help.
But some apps simply can't be moved. Usually their play store ad will mention this.
There may be other options if you are rooted, but again... Would need to know your device details.
?

Thank you. Thread closed.

Nabi 2 Apps to SD Card

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.

[Completed] Sprint LG G Stylo worse than bricked

I was messing around with the 3c Toolbox and, like an idiot, I skipped a backup step before trying to unlock the SD card (or something, I don't remember and there's no way to check [read on]).
I lost access to my SD card and couldn't find the file that I was supposed to rename to regain access (which is why I think I skipped a step), so I thought that maybe I could factory reset my phone and it would fix the problem.
Now not only can I not access ANY SD card I put in my phone, it also doesn't recognize the "internal SD card", the Google Play Store won't open, and it keeps saying there's not enough memory or "no SD card" to download any APKs from the internet.
Am I going to have to send in my phone and get it replaced? Or is there a way to fix this problem without being able to download anything onto my phone or SD card directly or over USB?

can't move/install to sd card on rooted phone

Hi,
My internal storage is full, I can't install new apps or update the current apps to newer version.
To get around this issue, I got a new sd card, with 32 GB. The sd card seems to be working well.
Anyway, all apps have the option "move to sd card" - DISABLED! Gee thanks for nothing, Android. :good:
I remember on older Android versions, it was possible to move apps and data to sd card. Now it isn't. From my research I know it's an Android feature now, but then why have the UI button "move to sd card" there? It's part of the Android OS. Makes no sense.
The only app that has this button enabled for me, is Facebook Messenger. I try clicking on it, but after a while it gives an error.
Today, I rooted my phone, thinking it would solve the problem and I could finally install big apps to the sd card, and move app data there as well. :fingers-crossed: No such luck. After rooting, still having the same issue. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. :highfive:
My phone is an Alcatel One Touch Idol.
