Hello!
Is there a way to set external SDCARD as default storage globally in i9300 running stock 4.3?
Not in each application separately?
Thanks!
I think you must set on each app......

Can anyone confirm?
No kind of workaround script?
I believe there once was a script to swap ext for internal, but given the fragile partition structure on these phones it didn't prove popular.
If you search you will find it, but I wouldn't advise using it.

There is a working script for CM11.why don't you use apps from googleplay like foldermount it is a good app, you can mount your apps and games to sdcard
Go to my files. Then press the button on the bottom left. (Next to the home button) Then go the bottom line. And there you go. There you can setup everything. Sorry for my english

Hey guys.
Just saw a "Allow application moving" option in the CyanogenMod settings menu.
This allows any app to be moved to the SD card.
I have been wondering...by allowing any app to be moved to SD even though originally they can't...
are there any side effects, problems or any inconveniences caused by doing so?
Thx guys.

It doesn't let you do it for all apps but otherwise it works well.
It's also a good idea to keep your widget apps on the phone.
Oh ok thx.
If you will move any widget to SD. You will have to configure it every time you turn on phone. The same with launchers and keypads.
ok. I'll remember that.

If you need it, there are apps in the market which let you know what apps can be put on sd and what apps can't or shouldn't. Type 'app 2 sd' in search box in market

I know...but I don;t mean that. There is a setting in CyanogenMod settings that can MOVE ANY APP to SD.
I was inquiring about that.
I already know what you were trying to say in your original post.
However, I was just adding on to what cheryanne and zdune were saying.

on my GNote.... I can long press on the picture that some-1 txt'd me and I saved. (it always goes to the download folder).
Anyways.. I long press on it under 'my files' and one of the options is "MOVE"...
then I find the folder I want and 'paste' it in there..
Well...
on this 7,7....... there is NO OPTION to move......
So... How can I move this pic(s) out of the download folder to my secret folder on my external sd card??
I have been trying for a few days now without success...
Any and all help on this project would be greatly appreciated..
All replies are welcomed and encouraged..

As far as I know you can only move your files within your external sdcard or within internal memory. You may not move files from internal memory to external or the other way around. I tried it.
There maybe only way is used computer to move file between memories.
yeah.... I guess Ill just have to email them to myself then transfer them from the laptop to my 6800's micro sd.... a bit of a hassle..
the GNote allows you to "move".....
dammn
Are you sure you can't use the "my files" app which is already installed on the tablet and do it that way, I have this tab and I'm sure I've done that before.

Yes.. Check out the original post...
My files....
Yes.....
No option to "move"
Use cut/paste (in myfiles tick file, tap scissor icon top of screen, navigate to destination folder, tap paste icon top of screen)?
You can definitely moe files with the built in file explorer, or if u are rooted, you can try root explorer.

Hi, I'm running Slim 4.3 Build 1 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393971) on my lcd version nexus s and really like the on screen buttons included with the rom. Is there any way to remove the back light from the capacities buttons and stop them vibrating?
Thanks
If you download Nexus S Tools from the Play Store, you can disable the capacitive lights, and there's a file somewhere in system/usr that has the keycodes for the capacitive buttons (you'll know what file it is when you see it, there's like 4 lines for back, home, search, and menu). What you gotta do is put a # in front of each line and reboot, then the capacitive buttons will be disabled.

I couldn't find anything called "Nexus S" tools.
Bit of a noob mate , how do I find the system/user and edit it?

To edit the file, download a file explorer (ES File Explorer is what I use) and enable "root explorer" then go into settings and make sure /system is set to "R/W" (there's a little check box somewhere).
From there go into /system/usr/keylayout/cypress-touchkey.kl and open it as text. Then put a # in front of every line that doesn't have one and then reboot

Do you know if there's a similar procedure to remove also the backlight??
I'd like to keep them always off without changing kernel or rom, i'm on 4.1.2 stock.

As long as you have root, NSTools is always my go-to option since its designed for this phone specifically, so I'd give that a whirl. I don't know exactly what file controls the backlight so I can't help you there

I already tried NStools, but it require a modified kernel to edit the capacitive keys backlight.
Thank you anyway
^Same, I'm trying NStools but I don't thin the kernal is letting me do much. Any recommendations on a good krnal to flash with slim?
Marmite that comes with slim rom is good. I have disabled the back lights using that and nstools in the past. But often they would flicker if you touched them which bugs me.
In the settings somewhere you should be able to disable the hardware keys without altering any system files. I am not on that rom anymore so I can't tell you exactly where!
Ended up using nstools + disabling vibration
esexplorer is pretty complicated
Thanks for the help everybody
Good morning all.
I just discovered that if I put any of my phone apps into folders (e.g. put Phone or Messages or Video into into a folder in the app drawer) and reboot, the apps are magically dumped from their respective folders back into the root folder (app drawer).
Does anyone else have this issue?

There is thread with this exact problem, try to find it. From what I remembered, if you add apps to folder by clicking on that plus sign, they will disapear. You need to click on menu button and then edit. Here you should edit your folders and then save. Once done this way, they will stay in their folders.

Thanks for the response. I'll give that a shot. I used that method to do my other apps; phone apps seem to be the only ones affected. Will let you know how it turns out and will also look into that thread when I find it.

That seems to have done the trick. The phone apps are staying inside their folders and they're not magically popping back into the root folder. Thanks!

Solution: Do not use the plus sign inside the folders, or the apps will fall out of the folders when you reboot. Instead, press “Edit,” and drag and drop the apps into the folders. This will keep the apps inside the folders. Honest. It worked for me.
