3. launch MTPW (Mini Tool Partition Wizard)
4. Backup All SD Data (Cut to PC)

Also a Little tip i recommend starting Fresh with this, eg what i did was flash a stock debloated STRAIGHT After and i felt fresh?? weird right, but its even better
:3 Enjoy!
completely agree with you, I once a month (or sometimes every two weeks) formatting my SD (after making a backup of course) and back to create the ext3 partition again, and then to reinstall the rom (Stock Clean) feels soft as butter ..
Yes!, I already clean my dalvik cache + del unneccesary files but from now on I want to format my play every 3 months! (weird right?, but it keeps it buttery!)

There is also an app called sd maid. It will clean your sdcard without having to move everything off. It more of just looks for dead files and files linked to games/apps not installed and deletes them.

I use this every few months. Reboot the phone and away you go

I used this app 1 time, but i ran everything (mostly) and it detected my cwm backups and thought they were dupes so they were all deleted exept the newest one -_-, guess it was my fault, but i use something for my internals, its called root cleaner, but its paid, but worth it!, i run that like evey week or so... along with the supercharger superclean script!
Isn't going to slow down after some time?

I want to switch to a 16gb sd card and i copied everything i have in my old one to the new but it never passes the logo screen. What are the steps necessary to do this successfully?
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
I do not really have an answer to your question, but I did discover something cool about stock FroYo.
I had moved a bunch of apps to the SD card (via the official way) and was somewhat concerned about installing a larger SD card as I was unsure if my apps would copy over properly or more importantly be recognized as being present on the SD card at all.
I copied all DATA from my old SD card to my new SD card and booted up the device, at first none of my moved apps appeared to be installed, but after about 3 or 4 minuets all my previous installed apps populated in the launcher.
Color me impressed,

Im using a miui rom and i copied everything to the new sd and then when i turn on the phone i can see the miui logo but then it geys stuck there...
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
i think its because some of miuis stock applications are installed onto the sd card. try making an ext partiton and then reflashing the same version of miui you have without wiping and it should boot up fine again without losing all your data
That should not be an issue unless you are using official stock OS or you have previously forced moving system apps to sd...

You keep saying you copied everything over. That's probably not true. Check to make sure all the hidden files were copied over too, and that any extra partitions have been created and copied over too.
If you're using an ext partition, your pc probably won't see or copy it...

Ok so how do i partion. can someone explain that to me. Thanks
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
You would've had to set up the ext partition yourself, so if you don't know how to do it, I'm guessing you don't have an ext partition...

You partition you sd card in the recovery, there's an option for that.

Easiest way to partition an sd card with ext and fat flavors is via Linux... grab your favorite usb bootable linux (like ubuntu or mint) if you're not already made the switch, boot your notebook via usb, stick your sd card and partition as you like it...

It's has really been the pain in the arse. Really.
I use Lord's Ice Cold Sandwich. This happens occasionally, when I tried to download SD data for a game, the SD card remounts as being read-only.
I tried full-wipe flash, format SD card with Disk Utility of Ubuntu, then reflash it with Android's utility. I tried unmounting sdcard in CWM. I tried fix permission option in CWM. Nothing helps so far.
Thanks in advance!!! :angel:
There's an app on the Play Shop which claims to fix this, give it a try

I actually tried that. The other day I backed up stuff than formatted the thing with Disk Utility tool of Ubuntu. I then went extreme, formatted it again on Android.
I guess the app above might help. The thing is I'm still under 18 for a credit card, hence gotta wait another year to be eligible.... mannnnn
Apparently, the SD card is still in R/W mode, it isn't til I start download data for games, download music, use dolphin... that it becomes read only. The process usually goes for half the bar, than stop.

Should I repartition the SD card with swap storage and ext4 and stuff?

Just format the card with 4ext then reflash rom.

Are you able to flash your SD card? If you are having the same files after the formatting which you had then I don't think anything will work rather than replacing your SD card
Sorry for posting in galaxy y thread but there is no galaxy pocket (or if there it's,I couldn't find it) and this model is the closest I could think of..so anyways my phone, it works fine unless I insert the memory card.then after a few minutes it freezes and reboots without powering off. Then it restarts, freezes and again shuts down.removing the card fixes it but then I can't use my apps songs and videos on my memory card. That card worked fine for almost a year (I didn't test it on some other Android device but it works on non Android devices)
My Recent Activity
a few days ago I decided to deodex my phone using a flashable I found somewhere...it all was working fine except for a few FCs and sometimes it froze but after some time it would get back to normal.then I installed a few apps like undelete and ROM toolbox pro.I changed the boot animation too. So once I was using opera mini web browser and my phone froze and turned off in the same way I mentioned earlier... I tried clearing dalvik cache and the cache partition in recovery mode but to no avail.I also removed a few apps I suspected may have been the cause but that too didn't work.
I hope the experts here help me out with the issue soon.

Backup & Format
Use a pc and a card reader to make a backup of ur sdcard and then format it (to fat32).. and restore the data to sdcard from pc and try..
So I though it might be worth while to make a list of apps/games that are compatible with sdcards in some way.
tTorrent can save files to a folder in the sdcard, storage/sdcard1/Android/data/hu.tagsoft.ttorrent.lite
BSPlayer (tested free, assume pro too) can be moved to SD card. The home screen shortcut disappeared, and it took two reboots to work the kinks out. Froze once for me after first reboot, did a hard reset, held power button down, and it's been fine since.
EBay moved to sdcard, home screen shortcut disappeared, continues to work fine.
SuperGNS moved to sdcard, no problems yet
Out There moved to sdcard, tablet runs very slow on first reboot, process stopped responding, everything fine after second reboot.
Netflix moved to sdcard, no problems
Voxel Rush moved to sdcard, no problems
I will update when I test more.

can you move games to sdcard? like the data part? games like asphalt 8, gangster Vegas,spiderman 2? etc etc
I keep seeing posts about this sdcard issue, I can release a workaround for thus
The latest OTA update from Nvidia which was 4.4.2-2.4 was ment to fix this and to when i tested it, it did fix the issue but i always using a program called Folder Mount which works well and basically it symlinks from internal to external sd-card but the app still thinks its using the internal sd-card.
It works well for me i have loads of games and music on my Tegra note 7 with this app and you can even set it to so that it mounts all the folders automatically on boot.
Folder Mount can be found on the playstore and is free demo which only allows a maximum of 3 symlinks but it works and is well worth the Pro upgrade.
Personally I think that the problem is still there. As end user with not rooted tegra note I still cannot move my files freely from main memory to SD card and most of Tue games I have tested fails to run from SD card.
I am planning to go back to 4.3 where everything was working. Shame Google decided for such a step to castrate core function to android flexibility.

Andrew have you tried foldermount???
No, I haven't as its require root access. I don't want to lose my guarantee.
Sent from my hamster cage using old carrot.
No problem then. So how are you going to go back to 4.3 I hope not via APX mode as that is a last resort method.

That link is to a apx recovery image set how ever you could use the IMF's to try and fastboot flash recovery boot user data and system but you might need to unlock the bootloader to do that.

Guys, I'm trying to move my games to my External SD card since I've got only 1gb left of my internal, but when I try to do it just from the Application Manager inside Settings, it only moves a few megabytes (X-Com Enemy Unknown has 3.7gb and moved to SD 60mb of it, awesome...)
I'm rooted, using X-Note 13, knox tripped 2 minutes after getting inside the house with the phone, I don't care about warranty or stuff, just... Could someone provide a fix, please? Tried App2SD, Link2SD and other apps like this, but it seems all they do is just move provide me with a shortcut to the same Application Manager from Settings that does the same useless thing. I didn't get a 64gb sd card to move 60mb out of 3.7gb from a game, seriously...
I think it depends on the programing of the game what can be moved and what not. Some programs can't be moved at all, but most of the big games I have, large portions of the data was moved to SD card during the install all by itself. If you just purchased the card, maybe reinstalling the game from start would give you better results, if that was an option? Also it seems to me you're using close to 25 GB of internal storage but you only mention one game, surely you must have many other large programs installed, what about them? There are some programs that can fool the system into "thinking" your external SD card is internal memory and your internal memory becomes external, but I don't have details ATM, also this could create problems if your SD card went bad.
And maybe you should take a hard look and see if you really need all those programs? If I didn't keep the tabs and clean all the junk, delete less frequently used programs etc. on regular basis, 96GB of memory wouldn't be enough either LOL.
I mentioned just one game as an example. I have quite a lot of space-hungry games, such as Bard's Tale, Modern Combat 4, Gangstar 4, Amazing SpiderMan2, etc...a total of around 40 games, mostly large games, and I have basically moved everything I could from Application Manager, yet it moved very very very little out of them. I tried deleting and reinstalling them, formatting my sd card, reflashing the rom from scratch with fresh sd, basically same thing every time. I got this phone to be able to have a mobile console with me that can also receive calls (boring job, games on phone help a lot), and now my sd seems so pointless
Internal Memory 26.3gb - 1.2gb free
Ext SD Card 59.0gb - 42.6gb free
bump, please?
The only app that worked for me is FolderMount [ROOT].
RinaldiMe, thanks a lot man, I just bought that app, testing it now, but from it's description, it should do exactly what I hope . It requires individual move of each app and folder, but it does the trick, thank you so very much
Will come back with replies as soon as I move 5-10 apps and test it out more
L.E.: Nope, bought the app, not just the free version, moved some files, still didn't work, apps just thought they didn't have their files and wanted to redownload...
Back to square one

I'm assuming your on kk bootloader and dunno if Mattiadjs int2extsd mod will work on 4.4, but I've been using his script meant for JB 4.3 that switches where the huge data and obb files are stored to your extsd instead of internal storage.
Try checking the galaxy s4 thread for the kk mod, I'll try looking too and post a link for ya. I know what your going thru as I have over 500+ apps/games and needed the 128gb SanDisk to store all my obb/data files along with pics and mp3 media.
Here's the link to the kk int2extsd mod

Folder mount should work too it's just more complicated and is more meant for cm roms imo.

Any luck with that link I sent you, it's really easy to use as you just flash it in recovery. Your rom and kernel need to support init.d and it only works on TouchWiz roms.

Are you tried App2sd?

Read op instructions. You have to put the same name folder both internal and external. Example: titanium backup. Both of internal and external must have the same name and caption.
Put all the titanium backup data in external titanium backup folder.
Leave titanium backup folder in internal empty.
Run the app, and select the correct path.

Any luck? this seems to be a generic android problem. can't believe no one figured out a solution yet. tried link2SD but it doesn't seem to see the full game size... detects something like 50 mb offf a 3 gb game...
assume u r note r rooted...install Xposed installer, then download a module obb on sd , enable it at the modules after downloading and installing, reboot and them move any game obb data from the note internal memory to the SD after creating folder Andriod/obb at sd
