Not supported by honeycomb. the apps that do it on 2.X only trigger the already supported function in the 2.x OS. You can do the same thing by going to the App Management screen and picking each app, hit the Move to SD card button. Those apps make it easier to move them when its supported by the os, they don't make it possible to do the unsupported.

That you for your help

I read in a thread that there is sym-link software that will link your sdcard mounted as a folder on your internal storage.This would allow you to purpose on SD. But have not tried as I have no need with 16 TB storage internal.I put media music/video on SD thou.

16 TB internal??? Sweet!!!!!!

If you need/want to move apps to SD on the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0

Try Link2SD available on the Play Store
There's a thread for it here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919326
Make sure to read, read, and then again read the instructions before proceeding.

moving apps
According to published info moving apps to ext SDcard in ICS is possible with Gemini App Manager 2.4.5/smile.gif

Thanks for the information. I was wondering which app people were running for moving apps to the SD.

yeah this is def needed, i love this tablet 7

EZ moving apps to SD
The ability to move apps, folders and media files is built into GT2. Use the native My Files app to drag and drop files from internal to external sd card. Move files from the right pane into the External SD card folder in the left pane.

I've used My Files to move files and folders but would that actually work with an app? I would think the app would become unusable or would it even be seen anymore?

I have moved the apk from the data folder into the external SD card and the apps have continued to work fine. Of course some apps should not be moved, ie: those with Widgets.

Well, I'm gonna have try that out. Thanks.

I may be doing something wrong since, despite being rooted, I can't seem to get to the Root directory to access Data/App using the My Files app. Would you mind showing us the steps to do that?
With your suggestion, we have to manually move each app that we install? Kinda tedious.
If so, I'll stick to Link2SD.

Sorry, not the same thing. Moving files from int SD to Ext SD is not the same thing as Apps2SD.
The method list in the OP works for me.

thanks! but the data of the apps, which is the more space that has it can't be moved.

Am I the only one that can't move apks to the external SD?
I tried all of these suggested apps but all of them tell me that there is not enough space...
I've an EMPTY 32Gb SD well partitioned (28gb FAT32 and 1gb Ext3). What's wrong on my tablet? :cyclops:

Try gl2sd or directory bind or app2sd but first format the card in s2 or s3 or tab2 device not in computer

this does not work and was using v2.5.3 on JB 4.1.1

Stock firmware can't read ext3, u must format your second partition in ext4. Link2sd works, but move only apks data, not all data (u can move an apk of a game but not all 1gb or more...)
Gltosd moves all datas. I use it.
It will be useful if the creator of the script to swap internal/external sd card, will make a p3100 version of his script....:angel:

Default Download Change

Is it possible to change the default download folder from the internal storage to external storage? I have searched and found nothing along the lines of this that has been answered.

I've searched about this too, and it seems for now there's nothing. But you can always move files with the built in file manager.

How to move games to exsternal sd card rooted

Samsung galaxy tab 3 7.0 SM-T210

Either go to setting->apps choose the app you want to move, tap on it, and then tap "move to sd card", or use some app like clean master (it does many other things too)

I use it too! good!

use this app / WAPKInstallManager...

if you are using a custom rom chances are it supports external and internal storage swap which means external sd will be considered internal , you can do that by either an option in settings/storage/storage config and check use internal as external (or something like that) or you can edit build.prop , for gameloft games you can use gl2sd from play store , you'll be able to move the cache to external sd , you can also use directory bind which binds the path of a folder in external sd to a folder that you choose (android/data/ in your case) , afaik link2sd only installs apks in sd card not game cache (external sd storage is slower so i dont advice you to do that for games ) , i hope i helped u

When you enable Developer Options, there's a menu option under
Settings -> Developer Options ->
Enable this menu option:
Force allow apps on external
Should do the trick!

I just enabled this but new apps don't seem to be going to my sd card. Internal storage gets larger and larger with every app install. Not sure exactly how to use this feature.

You have to move each app individually. Go to settings/applications/ choose the app go to /storage then "move to sd card"
