Whenever the games or applications are installed, they will be installed to the SD card (most of the time) for Froyo 2.2.
However, when I try to search for where these programs are installed I could not find them. Which folder in the SD card are all of the games/apps installed to? I need the name of the folder/directory.

Is there anyway you can open the data file? so we can mod the looks of a certain app lets say.

Never tried it on the hd2 but u can try Metamorph and ninja morph. You should check around the android theme forum for more info
No internal option within Apps themselves.
Tried a couple of app mover apps off Google Play Store -- no dice.
Anyone?
Thanks!
I don't believe you can thanks to ICS.

Wouldnt blame it on ICS as such, works on other ICS devices.
Moved To Q&A
Please post questions in the Q&A section
From what I've heard on other forums, Motorola has disabled the feature to move apps to the SD card. I believe that they did this to remove any root exploits. I'm not sure if this is a feature in the developer edition sold directly from Motorola though. Maybe someone with a developer edition could enlighten us.
Now that we have root and jelly bean (I still cant get root on my jb leak but I'm open to suggestions) .....any possible methods to move our apps to the damn SD card?? I'm already getting notifications that the internal storage is almost full.....****ing ridiculous

including the new su and superuser, not sure if they are the ones from aosp.us but they worked for me on jB leak
Also when it says press button combo for bugreport, I hold vol.up and power, until the root process is complete, vibrates a total of 5 times for me but it worked flawlessly twice, so yeah I suggest u try and hold the buttons until it reboots because of program

Thanks man, I got it to work finally. I appreciate it...
so any ways you can think of that we can move apps to SD?
Hey guys, I got a BONAFIDE way to move our apps 2 sd!!
first: partition your sd card
then: install and use link2sd
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432459
boom there's the tutorial, took me a good 30 minutes to do (was watching the new always sunny episode while doing it) but it freaking WORKS...
definitely the best bonus of us getting root on our razr m's thus far as the internal storage is realistically only 2-3 gigs so this adds like 33-66% to your apps storage!!

I attempted this while carefully following the directions and it did not work on a Droid Razr M..... I succeeded creating the 2nd part. and the app identified it accordingly while looking under storage devices, but unfortunately the app only allows the option to move to "sd card"....which is the name on the internal memory, so it gives an error...motorola sly-fully named the internal memory "sd card" so the app keeps trying to send things there and all I get is an error message.............have you succeeded doing this with a Razr M?? And if so what could I be doing wrong???? Thank you!

Yeah it definitely works on a razr m, I'm using it right now and after I was done the internal memory grew back around a gigabyte....
Hm I'm not sure about that error, I'd say start over and try again with the exact programs it uses

I'm also having the same issue; Link2SD is giving me an insufficient space error, because the internal storage is called 'sd card'. What did you do differently? I've followed the original instructions twice from scratch.
Im not sure, I feel like I've been having problems with link2sd since I ota updated to jb...I can't tell if its working or not though its linking all my apps

Tried starting over and partitioning the apps partition to FAT32 as well as Ext 2, neither worked. Tried on another card, still no go.
The app thinks the internal storage space is actually the SD card, because that's what it's called. If you look around with a file explorer, you'll see that the internal storage space is actually /sdcard. If you want to get to the REAL sd card, it's under storage/sdcard1. storage/sdcard0 seems to be the same folder as /sdcard. Is there a way/a different app that lets you specify where you want to establish your new apps folder? I think that's all the fix it needs. But I am no dev.
Its called external1 actually.

Any update or luck to move apps to sdcard?
Do we need absolutely to root the device ? Apps like gps navigation, maps.... need more space and I can't move them to the external card.
Yeah if anyone could look into this that would be awesome...my car got broken into in Newark yesterday so I'm busy tryna get that taken care of, I'll be able to mess with it myself later in the week
It's getting really irritating though, i can't keep large game apps on here because of this problem, which is ridiculous seeing as to how the phone runs them like a champ and i have a whole 32 gig card in there

Try App2SD: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.infolife.app2sd&hl=en
Also, don't want to sound rude or anything, but don't create duplicate topics, ask for a moderator to move your old one.

I am sorry for that...i wrongly create that thread.
i use this app also...it is not supported my phone
What do you mean by supported? It didn't let you install it or it didn't work?
You could also try this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.krikun.s2e
But, CM10 is in a better development stage than CM9, you should consider switching to that. I have CM10 2ndboot builds and moving apps to SD is working fine.
Remember that not every app can be moved to the SD Card, that will depend on it's developer too.

Did you do a factory reset before flashing CM9? What is your total internal storage showing? If it's not 2GB total then you will need to back your data etc up (not NAndroid, use Titanium or similar), then boot into STOCK recovery, do a full factory reset (wipe data and cache), then reinstall your ROM, then reinstall your data from backup.

Hi
when i move my app to SD card via Titanium app..it is moving but after that it is still showing on phone memory.
I'm trying to move anomaly 2 to my sd card, but it doesn't work. When I go to the application manager I have the option to move it to my sd card, but when I try it takes forever and then at the end it says unable to move app. I have moved many apps this way, but this one wont move. The only difference I can think of is the size of the app, anomaly 2 is 1.8gb which is the biggest game I have. I am using kitkat 4.4.2, and I am also rooted (this problem happened before I rooted though.)

You cannot move data app to sd-card
it s just for .apk
it means system install it on sd-card but Data will remains in internal memory
But do u use built-in app manager or another app?

I don't mind if I cant move the data, I just want to move the huge app from my internal storage to my sd card. I used the built-in app manager.

IF "move to sd-card" option is available in built-in app manager but u cannot move it.
that can be bug in that app. ask other user of app or its developer

Thanks, I didn't know it was up to the developer. I emailed the developer and unfortunately, I can't move it. Is there anyway to move it since my phone is rooted?

do say thanks hit it
cause it s on app the answer is NO.
if that was because of android system can use something like mount stick to mount sd-card with internal
(that is available on galaxy devices by default)

That sucks. Thanks anyway though.
Is it possible to fully install apps on my SD card instead of the phone itself?
As the games I'm wanting to play are around 1.5-2gb Each and I can only have like 2 installed at a time.
When I move to SD card it only moves around 50mb of the game over and keeps most of it on the phone
Is it not possible to play games that are fully on the SD card?
Yes but you need root access and ROM Toolbox

I use an app called FolderMount that can move over large folders to the external SD card and then map it as if it were still there. I use it for games mostly. Some games take up a TON of space. You need to have root first.
