ok so coming from the G1 with apps2SD and moving apps from memory to SD was easy. Well i just went and installed a bunch of apps on my HD2 and suddenly got the "low on system storage" memory. i went into settings and tried to move apps to SD but wouldn't let me. Searched forums, and cant find an answer. How can i install android apps to the SD? it seems that if the android OS is on the SD card, wouldn't the apps naturally install there?! thanks for any help.
Yes, your android runs from the SD card. But your android does recognize the data.img in your folder as the system storage. That means if you have a build that creates a 1GB data.img, your storage is limited to 1GB.
How big is you data.img?
The option to install something on the SD isn't possible.
Cheers

Same situation
I'm also coming from a G1 with cyanogenmod using Apps2sd...
...is there any way that i can run my current apps from my sd card on the HD2?
or atleast copy them to the device?
Yes, if you have them in *.apk form.
You can create a folder on the SD card, I call it apps, and copy them there. Then use a file manager, I use Astro, to navigate the sd card and install them into Android. This way you don't have to keep reloading them from Market.
You can also put them into the Android Apps folder inside the Android folder and they will be installed on boot.
Cheers...

Hi
I'm using Go launcher EX. I bought a 16GB micro sdhc card for my huawei titan u8800. When i put it in suddenly over half of my apps disapeared from the app list and in my homescreens they only showed the green loading icon. When i try to click on them on the home screen it says that the application is not installed. I think it was the apps that i had moved to the internal storage that disapeared. In the memory info it still says that the internal memory card is almost used up so it doesnt seem to have been deleted. After i took out the card and rebooted they came back after about 10 minutes. Is it any way to get the apps back while i have the sd card in?
which rom are you using? Stock 2.2.2, cm7, miui?
I am using android 2.2.1 that came with the phone.
So, you din't have an external sd card and used the internal sd to install some apps there?
When put the external sd card, the system start to use this card instead of the internal, and the apps which are installed on internal sd card are no longer be installed.
Therefore, you need to copy them from internal sd to external sd.
You need to copy the folders .android_secure and Android(if exists), and also Data(if exists too) from HWUserData folder to external sd' s root directory.
I think this will solve your problem. If this works, you can after delete these folders from internal sd.
It worked! Thank you very much! Glad i didnt have to reinstall all my applications again....

I'm on a Redmi 3S with 16 GB internal storage which runs on unofficial version of LineageOS by Fedosis. I was not using an SD card, hence everything was in the internal memory itself.
As the app and app data is getting huge, I wanted to move this to an external storage. So I got a 32 gig SD card. While setting up the card, I used the option "as internal memory". After installation I could not access my phone memory. And when I rebooted to recovery via TWRP, I cannot see this SD card. Only thing I could see was phone memory. So it's kind of a complication to flash apps.
So I again formatted the SD card and set it up "as portable memory". Now I can access the phone memory normally and in TWRP also. But when I try to move the apps, [eg: Hearthstone, Flamingo, etc] it says, it's not possible.
So, how should I set up my new SD card, so that I can move the existing apps into it and also install new apps to the same SD card?
format as internal storage and then go to appsettings and manually move them to external memory. but this isnt supported by all apps.
to flash something with twrp than, you have to put the file you want to flash into /data/media/0/TWRP
