Hii,
First of all thanks for reading this. i need help with an issue.
I accidently formatted my sd card without considering that i had some apps installed on sd card.
now that i have a clean sd card i mounted it again and i have some broken links of apps in my app list.
it says app not found.
i know when we install app on sd card some of it is installed in phone memory and thats what in my case is the issue.
that part of the app in my phone memory is still there but the remaining on sd card is lost.
so what i want now is to clean those broken files but those don't go away.
i tried uninstalling, clearing dalvik cache, clearing root/data/data.
Pls somebody tell me how i can clear them out.
Thanks in advance.
you're awesome.

Hi all,
I'm not sure if this has been asked before.
I'm using Virtuous Unity 1.31. Let say I have several apps installed and I move them (via manage applications) to the SD card. All works fine.
Let's say a new version comes out and I flash the new ROM, doing a full data and cache wipe in the process.
When I re-install all the apps, they'll be installed in the phone memory by default, and not the SD card. Does this mean that the app data on the SD card from the previous install is redundant, since the OS will presumably recognise the app in the phone memory. Is there any way to determine which apps were moved to the SD card and subsequently, free up the space?
Cheers,
Bump?
Any one with any ideas? Or is my original post confusing? ;p

Correct me if i'm wrong, but your problem is that you want to restore your data app from sd card and your are not sure cause they are already in phone memory? Or something different ? Because if you only want to put your apps from phone storage in sd-card again you can do it, you'll overwrite the older same apps..
You can try the app in my signature (SD Maid) to free up space.

Hanisa, my problem is that before I flash a new ROM, I usually do a wipe, which means when the new ROM is flashed in, it'll be "as stock" without any of my apps.
When I restore all my apps, either using Titanium Backup or the Android Marketplace, they'll be installed into the phone memory by default.
If for example I have Minisquadron installed and moved to the SD card before the wipe, when I re-install it, it will be in the phone memory by default. This means the data already on the SD card (before the wipe) is just wasted space.

Thanks. I'll give it a shot and see if it works for me.
Hi all
I would like to intsall all apps to my SD Card, because the internal memory of this phone isn't so much. I would like to use my SD Card for default install location. Is there any way to do it?
please refer to this post, everything you need for chacha
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1255107
ps: unless we have a CM7 rom for chacha, or we have to move the apps to SD card after installation
The suggested Low memory actions there are not looking good to me. Factory data reset will clear all my accounts and setup and one day i'll get the message again.
I want to solve the problem, not to find an alternate solution
So basically I still would like to install all my apps on my SD Storage.
ps
Thanks for the thread.
I have Bumblebee 3.0 installed on my A110 currently and I've been facing certain issues with my SD card. (My camera would not click pics, because my SD was apparently full.) So, I figured.. Why not flash the SD card from 'storage' in android settings.
I want to install another ROM. Now I have a blank SD card and whenever I try to factory reset and wipe dalvik cache it shows me an error. It is not even allowing me to install another ROM. Although bumblebee's working fine now, I wish to change my ROM.
Any possible solutions?

i think you have a corrupt file in your sd card so fix it first
try to connect your phone to computer and see if it can recognize your msdc. if yes backup and reformat use sdformatter. if no take out your msdc and use card reader.
always backup files and use minipatition tool to recover data before reformatting
just trying to help i hope this works.

Hey. This worked. THANKS!!!
Many of my apps are missing after restarting.. i have checked for errors in my sd card, got errors and corrected but still apps were missing.. also my music app cannot find any music in my storage.. i noticed that apps that were missing are those on the sd card. Someone experienced this? I want to know a fix for this without restoring. Please help. Thanks
For got to say, sd card is running fine after the checkdisk.

check the sd card if the data is there and accessible .
if yes
1) try powering off n on instead of rebooting.
2) try unmount and remount.
3) try reinserting the sd card..
My step me that to install a cooked rom, my only solution was to return to the basic rom and install a more recent version
I have Alcatel 5054D with a nonrooted Lollipop (5.1.1) on board. I tried to move some apps to SDcard by pressing "Move to SDcard". Some of these apps moved successfully and some stuck in "Moving" state. I tried to reinstall these stuck apps, but they still show "Moving" instead of "Move to SDcard/telephone". Clearing cache and rebooting the phone doesn't help either. I do not understand if they still in the phone memory or on the card. Any suggestions?
Not all apps are movable to the SD card. They're most likely on the internal. If you root you can get LINK2SD app and it will move everything you wish

I know that not all the apps are movable to the SD card. I could not have been able to see "Move to SD card" in this case. But the apps that stuck in moving to SDcard are movable, e.g. Skype.
Link2SD doesn't work on non rooted devices.
I am having the same problem. I have tried rebooting the phone, uninstalling and reinstalling app, clearing the cache. None of this works. Still says moving. Any ideas?
Same phone, same problem, no custom rom to root with, no support for model on Alcatel website. Can't even update existing apps because phone too full, need to finish moving these apps ... nobody knows how? Searched for an hour already
