FolderMount works perfectly.
Thanks Extreme. Sorry for the repost
Has anybody successfully move the game data to their external hard drive using foldermount, not sd card? If so can somebody please show me how to do it. I also tried gl to sd and can only move data to sd card
Thanks
I'm loving the mojo after the root.

Is there any way install apk,games data to external sd?Can we use external sd just like a internal sd card?(Move apk,game data etc)
Some ROMS such as CM7 and MIUI have this feature, just make sure to check the list of functions a custom ROM has if external SD app storage is what you're looking for.
You can do it with Gameloft games
Here is the link for the software. It basically changes directory from standard sdcard/gameloft/games to sdcard/external_sd/Gl so game files are now stored onto your external SD card.

Hey there im new here on XDA but I was wondering if its possible to run Apps through stickmount using my flash drive or would I need an SD card + adapter to be able to run apps directly. Also gameloft games download an additional 2GB or so depending on the game would this download to the flash drive and be playable from the drive itself or would I need an SD card reader + SD card in order for it to work on my nexus 7 that I preordered.
editff-topic I also wanted someone to direct me on how to add a custom signature to my posts here on XDA. Thanks
Bump
anyone?
You cannot run apps through stickmount. it is only for accessing data media and other types.
all apps and app data must be on the internal memory.
Card reader
Thanks but you can run apps from an SD card. If I used my OTG cable with a SD card reader attached with a 16GB sd card will I be able to store and use my apps from there in my Nexus 7?

No, it's not a "True" SD Card, it still acts like a flash drive.

So essentially no way of running apps from outside flash storage what so ever? Just movies, pictures and files?
Right.

correct.
The internal memory setup emulates an sd card by adding an /sdcard directory.
there is no way to have another directory with that name and all apps are coded to store their information in the /sdcard directory. doing it any other way would break the app for all devices.
i can sure understand why you'd want to do that, but basically it's not possible.
best thing i can recommend is to keep all of your videos on external storage since those are the largest files you'll have.

Just thinking out loud here, but is it possible to rename the internal SD directory? I'm guessing no being that something so conceivably simple hasn't already been done.

Since you are already rooted you could always try this app it may give you the results you require. Bearing in mind that this was originally developed for the S2.

SD cards are too slow to run graphic intensive games (especially THD or Gameloft)

I don't have my S4 yet, but when I got my S3 at launch, I had to format my SD Card with my PC for my phone to read it. Could be worth a shot.
Ok cool thanks ill try that.

Quick question.. Can you try this out for me? I am having a similiar issue with the microSD card. Put music or video in the sd card and navigate to it using the My Files app. I can access everything on my sd card via My Files app explorer but the stock music app or 3rd party apps cant detect it.

On the latest update with Move to SD feature, when I move a game to SD card, the obb data is still in device storage.
Is this only me?

Hi,
Move to sd feature only moves the app.
Data is still on the internal storage.
In order to get both,you need to be rooted and use FOLDERMOUNT

with the official updated firmware you can move games and other apps to SD card from Settings - Apps - click on app - move to SD.
also, if you root your phone you can use app2sd to move them.
