I would like to save files for big games like gameloft etc. on my external sd card. But this isn't possible. On the S3 you could relize this with directory bind or Foldermount, but on the s4 it doesn't work.
any ideas?
That's becouse your device might not be rooted.
When there is an easy root for the s4 and you are rooted directory bind will work.
No, my device is rooted with Su and busybox installed!
Well I started testing with directorybind. It doesn't work for some reason. I'm rooted, using the same method as on my note 2 but for some it doesn't work? Wth?
Anyone having the same issue?

I've got a similar problem. I used my own scripts on an SD card and got Script Manager to execute them on boot. Now SM does not run the mount commands.....not from the SD card and not from /data with correct permissions either. I can ssh into the device and run them just fine but SM can't to it. It DOES execute a mkdir and a sleep command as the end of the script so the script runs WITHOUT the mount commands....not sure what to make of that but could be related.
Did the two people who rooted above tty folder mount?

Why? Because they like phones with ridiculously low amounts of internal storage?

I don't think ANYTHING is working on the SGS4 at the moment. Devs are working on this. Thanks for nothing Google and Samsung...
The dev of Foldermount is working on the issue.
Tried that app and that app actually works until you reboot your phone and then it's gone again for some reason
I would settle with an internal to sd swap like on the s3 and note2.
But that ain't done yet so we'll have to wait.

ICS CM9 still in early beta if not alpha! so let the devs do their work - if the first RCs are out you can start scream and bug around.
It works fine for me. Is it telling you "app isn't installed" or anything like that? Or is it giving you an error saying something about USB mounting or SD card access? If you tell me what's up, I can probably help~

They don't install into your sd card, they install on your internal memory that's only about 5GB. Go to application settings and see if you can movie them to SD card.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
dunno if they've changed it but normally theres a 2gb partition for apps and 12gb for storage. check if your 2gb partition is full. google recently changed things so that there is no longer a file size limit on what can be installed into the 2gb partition. so if one of the apps you've installed is particularly naughty, it couldve dumped a lot of data into the 2gb partition.
normally i find that shutting down and booting devices up again fixes the issue.

Oh shaaaaat. Makes me think maybe I should have waited for the 32GB. But then again, I couldn't stand my old phone (HTC EVO 3D) with it's crap 1GB of storage. With the S4's usable 9GB of free space, maybe it won't be so bad.

Apps2SD no longer works on JB and definitely doesn't work on GS3, GS4, GN2, Etc. from Samsung. Sorry to say this is why many, like myself are waiting for the 32GB to arrive.

why you wanna swap in 4.3 ? as i know you can move 2 SD , not like 4.1.2 thats why we go for int/ext swap

it's very useful using int/ext swap. because when i flash with different custom ROM, i just restore all apps from titanium backup, and all apps installed to ext sdcard. in 4.3, i have to run move 2 sd for each one by one apps every time i change to different rom..
Hi all!
I would like to move huge apps to my SD card now that I am rooted. (Forget the class number but it's high and it's a 16gb model)
I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53428200&postcount=1
I downloaded the app off of the play store. When I go to any APP2SD app it still says my device is not supported. How do I go about doing this?

I tried using the app to mount the AC4 game/map browser. I'm not sure what it did but it didn't take it off internal storage.
I'm still looking for a way. For example the ACiV app only moves about 40 of the 200 mb. Those root app 2 sd cards don't seem to work.
