On the latest update with Move to SD feature, when I move a game to SD card, the obb data is still in device storage.

Hi,
Move to sd feature only moves the app.
Data is still on the internal storage.
In order to get both,you need to be rooted and use FOLDERMOUNT

Use the app called like "GL to SD" only requires root and moves everything to the SD

i've just tested foldermount with a couple off games and after moving & mounting, the games didn't work anymore till i move them back to original location. (i'm using omega 7 firmware for 9505)

Is there any option to move the data to SD Card without rooting the phone?

Foldermount, in the app store. Can't remember if I paid for it but I can put anything I want onto the external sd card and "pin" it so it looks like its on internal... Works well with a 64gb sd card...

COuld you tell me a bit more about this app? How to "pin" it?
You open the app, transfer the folder you want transfered to the external sd card and then you pin it using foldermount. It is really quite easy and the app shows you what to do the 1st time....
I've transferred my Android folder with all the appdata and obb files onto the sd card, a lot of the internal folders too. Haven't had any problems BUT I do have a class 10 samsung 64gb sd card....

I have the folder mount app and i have alredy pinned my deezer data folder since the beggining, even so my internal memory is still beeing used. As far as i can see its using both, the source folder and the destination folder.
How can i clear the source folder and only use the destination folder?

Yes, apparently when you browse through 'my files" you can see data file in both ext n int sd. But it should be using only ext sd if you have mounted it correctly. Try unmounting the game data, delete the profile from folder mount and remount it. Remember if you have done something wrong and tell. I can help you.

Yeah, i´ve done that several times alredy. Its still using my internal memory. Correct me if i am wrong but if i am downloading something to the source folder that i have pinned it should automatically go to the destination folder and don´t use my internal memory, correct?

When you use folder mount, you are prompted to transfer to destination folder and if u hit yes then it will be transferred. It works perfectly on mine. Maybe u should try formatting the sdcard n try again.

The files are there, there´s nothing wrong with the sd card, but they are also in the internal memory. I wish they weren´t so i could clear some storage in my internal memory. The app prompet me just like you sad but now they are both in the internal memory and in the sd card. I just wanted to use the sd card and not the internal memory.

Then first of all, unmount the game data in folder mount and delete that profile. it will prompt you to tranfer file to source. Hit no ( let it be on extsd). And then see whether the game file is still in the internal sd ? Or else try to mount a new game data present or put some game data on sd and try to mount it and note the amount of free space. after mounting, check the amount of free space. It should be different.

Application manager move app from device storage to sd card?

anyone can explain how apps move to sd card works on application manager? I actually moved all the apps from device storage to sd card and it does free up space from the device manager, but I don't see the moved apps located on my external sd-card, where did it go?
if so what did it move? simply only the APK file? or data was included?

It only moved apk not the data , data remains in the internal storage only
However if u are rooted u can use the foldermount app that can move the data also to Sd card
but which SD card did it move the apk files to? I thought it was to the external SD-Card, But I don't see anything moved to there when I open my external sd drive.

Moving aplications to SD Card i9505 (Samsung update way)

Hello,
I've been looking for an answer on the forums but the responses on this question seem downright stupid or at least completely off the mark. What i want to know is why when i try to move an application to the EXTERNAL SD CARD (Kingmax Class 10 32gb microsd) it says that it moves the application on the sdcard but when i try to view the folders and everything on the external sd CARD it's as if nothing is changed no folders are added and the size does not change. On the phone it says that the application is on the SD Card, is this a BUG or what exactly is going on?

I understand what you mean but if i look into the android folder on the ext sdcard there is no application even though i've set all my apps to be moved on the microsd. Are they hidden or something?

The built-in function is useless. See my blog for details.

[BUG??] Apps and games not moving to External SD

Although it is selected in the settings / applications manager to move the app or game (if it supports ofcourse) to the external card nothing is being moved
The below screenshots Show that the game death trigger supposed to have its data on sd card (by which I assume my external micro sd 64 gb) the data is in the android/obb and the folder .android_secure on my external sd is created yet empty
Anyone know why?

For moving apps to sd ,search about sd partition on youtube and make a partition on your sd card and use App2sd app for moving apps on sd card
