Turn off the phone completely, then first press volume down and then the power button and after a few seconds volume up.

Which app did you use to move the games to SD? Is it App2SD?
Also do you need to format your sdcard to exFat?

I used GL to sd.
And it seems like it copied the games, but i can't detect them on the sdcard at all :S

Maybe you should give app2sd a try,
I find it more reliable as I use Titanium a lot!

Well, i have tried app 2 sd and it only moves the "app.exe" (only the executable) instead of it's data which is handy for smaller apps and games, but gl 2 sd can move even rockstar's huge games
but for you who also has gl 2 sd.. if you slide a moved game in the app to the left, the game disappears, why is that?
Flash the 9505 CWM recovery and install supersu 1.51 to root.

Soooooo
Im in the middle of flashing, I partition the SD card after wiping.
ROM is gone from SD card
I wiped the phone
I dont have a way to copy ROM to phone
Phone doesn't boot now.
What do I do!
A) Get another phone that takes microSD memory
B) Find a local computer store (Fry's, Best Buy, or whatever is in your area) and get one of these:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820223088 (Everyone should always have one of these anyway; very handy and very cheap.)
And a microSD to SD adapter if you don't already have one:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820220222
Did you flash another recovery already? Some recoveries allows you to mount the USB storage stuff.

No, as of now it can't be connected to a computer. It won't mount.
Hi, I'm new to this forum. I have the same problem as robvaldy with the sd card after installing mod 1.3. when I reinstall the firmware update PBJ8000.2.0127 for the A7 the card is recognized again. I haven't tried to use use the usb yet. Its just annoying having to shutdown to remove d sd card every time. Otherwise, I'd like to thank Dexter for a really sweet hack.
Hello everyone!
I got the Samsung galaxy S4 i9500 international version.
I put a 32gb micro sd card of SanDisk and it works fine.
The only problem is that I want to install apps on the sd card and I can't because I dont have the "move to sd card" option.
I saw some videos that show how the "move to sd card" is available without any root to the device...
Thanks a lot for helping!

you must have MEA firmware or newest to be able to move app to sd card. note that app data can not be moved
Well, thanks for the fast answer.
I checked for updates and it says that I got the newest version.. so how can I enable "move to sd card" option..?

what is your firmware? dial *#1234#
you have to update manually to a new version with odin. see my signature
or you can root your phone and use folder mount

You do realize that the "move to sd" option doesn't really Dave you any appreciable space, right? It will only relocate the apk and will leave the app or game's data intact in its original location.

You can try using Folder Mount or one of the similar third party apps to move the data to your external sd card and create symlinks from the original location to the new one.

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.
