For quite some time I am facing this issue with Galaxy S4
As the Internal storage is limited to 8GB, so installing Big games like Asphalt 7,8 and FIFA 14 in the internal storage is a challenge.
Earlier on my Galaxy S2, what i used to do was copy the OBB/Data file to 'sdcard/Android/obb'' or 'sdcard/Android/data'. By this way i can install many large games.
But with Galaxy S4 - I9500, this is not the case. DATA files are only recognized when put in phone memory /Android/obb.
Is there any way to solve this issue? Is it only me or others are also facing same problem?

Hi, i would recommend using FolderMount, you can transfer your big games or apps (data and obb) from internal memory to external sdcard, i use it on my i9500 and it works pretty good.......however i also recommend a class 10 external sdcard to increase the read data rate on heavy games like the ones you mentioned above.......

Fear of Bricking it, and it will Void the warranty. If i m not wrong.

Easiest root: CF-auto root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2219803&highlight=auto+root
Don't worry about bricking as long as you know the exact model of your S4!
And if you are in the EU, rooting does NOT void your warranty as kantjer pointed out in another thread: http://matija.suklje.name/rooting-and-flashing-your-device-does-not-void-the-warranty-in-eu
Thanks a lot Man,

I have only 1.2gb free in my internal memory.
But the game data is about 1.4g( i downloaded it from some website) and tried to put the files in the extsdcard(in obb/data folder) but it didnt work directly.
and cant put the file in internal memory and then transfer it as the memory is low.
So is there any way i can put the files directly in the extsdcard ?

hi
i have installed nexushd2 froyo Nand rom, and it's runing fine. but i just got 21 mb left on the internal storage, so i can't instal any apps or update.
i have tried to use app2sd but don't help anything, and have looked at some other treads but didn't help much
Load up app2sd and then move your apps to your SD card, simple! You can also use programs like Titanium backup to move them also.
If you cant figure out how to move them there isnt much hope for you im affraid.
Alternativley you should give a ROM a go that has App2SD+ or Data2Sd but you will have to create a partition on your SD card either via CWR or via a partition software. Once this is done all your apps will automatically be moved to SD when using App2SD+ or if you use Data2SD your partition will actually be a aextension of your internal memory which is much better

I have the US T-mo version and i am having the same issue as the original poster. The issue is that apparently 200 + mb's left is not enough for me. The phone decides which ones I can move and which ones go to the internal memory. Likewise App2sd is only moving a few apps. Not all the ones I am newly downloading.
I am also experienced a recent problem. I tried to open up pictures with the 3d gallery to view photos. the program started up and then the low disk error appeared out of nowhere then the gallery shut down!?!?!? Now how does this get remedied? this is not an issue for app2sd (that i know of) or moving anything is it?
thanks in advance
Yes it is a EU version, so I have to live with that i can't install Any app?

Hello,
i know that this is been ask alot for other phones.
But how can I get my Gameloft games to the external sd card?
I know there is a patch for samsung galaxy s2 but it don't works on my galaxy note.
The note stores the games in Android/data/asphalt6(or another game). so not the gameloft map.
i don't want to root my phone.
Thanks for helping me.
Best regards

not just gameloft ones...all game data...is it possible to do that?...
If we use app2sd apps will move to internal sdcard not onto the external one.
If someone know a solution let us know.
cheers!
Would be nice. I'm running out of room with all this game data on the internal sd

If it was possible on the s2 then there must be a way to do it on the note. Whatever mod was used maybe someone can edit that app/mod to use the android/data on the external card. This should be easy for the right person

Yeah, tried SGS2 old trick with gamelofts games, too bad it doesnt works on Note too and really need move all gamedata to external card. 4 games takes up 4gb already and I havent started to try out emulator games yet.
Wish there is 32gb Note.
this same method works with NOTE also.
download "Auto_Patch_APK_for_Samsung_by_Duero__include_Java_" from fro SII forums and use the patched apps
working as i can confirm:
1) Asphalt 6 HD
2) Rainbow 6
3) brothers in arms 2 HD
4) splintercell HD
5) NOVA 2

Hmm..weird, tried that with Asphalt 6HD and it didnt worked for me. Gonna try it again and see then.
Has anyone tried "gl to sd" from market? Supposedly moves data to external sd card
GALAXY NOTE
if u dont want all that mess just simply copy the gameloft folder to external sd and use
create a script in script manager and set it to run on boot and the script will be
"mount -o bind "the new gl directory" "the old gl directory" "
without quotes
works like charm.

The patch does not work for me.
The easy way is to root your phone. everything is original you have only root and then use gl to sd.
I have 8 games now on my external sd and works perfect.

yes u have to root because script manager needs root access
So you have to root in order to move the games over? I just moved several gameloft games over to sd including asphalt and bia2.
Is that normal?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
That is your phones memory the 16gb.
What we want is the game data on the external sd card.
Via root and gl to sd is it possible and via script manager (never tried that but sounds good!).
@ smackdownn: so i only have to download script manager and put your text in script manager? Sounds good.
Is there no bad side whit this method?
How will this work when we get ics?

About 4 gb are reserved for formatting tables rom recovery etc so if you have 8 gb version this is normal use external sd and app like directory bind, gl2sd or app2sd
In 16 gb version only free space is 11 gb

of-course you can root the tab even if its not yours, i have rooted my friends tab by their request, as long as they know what you do to their tab, and you know what you're doing, that is not a problem

Hi guys, I have rooted my LG Optimus L3 E400 about a year ago, with the installation of CM9 and CWM. Now, I removed CM9 and went back to my Stock ROM. Now here's my problem:
I want to play Puzzles & Dragons by GungHo.
However, my system memory is only 157MB, meanwhile Puzzles & Dragons is roughly about 50mb, but also downloading its data is about 180mb. I obviously do not have enough memory to fit the whole game. I have already moved Puzzles & Dragons to my Internal Memory(1GB), but how is the data going to fit, if the data downloads to the System Memory?
Any Ideas? Directory Bind, etc....?
If so, please give a tutorial.
Thank you for reading.

most important mention which device you are using
try lower graphic setting..lower screen resolution...
and best way is root your phone and install custom rom..because custom rom uses less ram,less cpu,
