Is this happening when you install them to internal sd?
Not all programs and games can be installed on the external sd, and anyway, you have a whopping 2GB of internal storage, why not just install apps and games there?
the apps i am trying to move can be moved to the sd card it gives me the option it just wont move and when i tried to install flick golf and train conducter 2 usa it refused to install it said it couldnt install to sd card or mass storage
I can move some apps to the sd card so i dont know whether its a problem with certains apps
I m facing the same issue on my dell streak...can someone help please..
Do these games take up that much space that you even need to worry about moving apps to the external MicroSD? You have 2GB of internal storage for your apps in addition to whatever you have in the external MicroSD slot, and unless you're running low on space you shouldn't need to worry about moving apps at all.
Need help I puchased the dark knight game and its about 2gb in size. I did a search on how to move apps and found an app called FolderMount which worked in moving the game to my external sd. But now I have a copy on my ext sd and my internal memory. I tried deleting it from the internal but its telling it cant cause its read only. Does anyone know a way around this. I found that if I copy all folder to my computer and format the internal it would solve my issue but would this cause an issue with the phone?
Hello, i'm new to this forum, i'm trying to figure out how to solve my problem. I have a Lenovo A3300-H tablet, and i can't change the storage location, i can see the SD card, i can move that dot, but everything i download goes to internal storage (it can see the card, but ignores it). Can you please help me? By the way, it's using android 4.4.2.
Hello, Now I don't really know what's going on cause i'm going crazy with this phone, eveytime I inserted sd card it asked the partition card and internal sd card and when I chose the external ones I have no idea why it doesn't read my sd card like for example I wanna transfer my file via airdroid or wanna restore an app via Titanium backup or play an NDS game it just read only the internal storage even though it shows on ES file explore (I tried the internal ones and it format my SD card, and S did put all the files back in place but it didn't help, the es file explore in photo was before I put my files back, by the way), my phone just doesn't read my sd card, it's like it just work as a one way storage, when I was using a Sony, this doesn't happens what so ever.
Does anyone knows how to fix this problem of mine, please help me. I took some pictures to make proves :crying::crying:

In titanium backup, open the preferences menu then choose backup folder location. Choose Storage provider (click to change). Then pick DocumentProvider storage, select the SD card on the left menu then press Select at the bottom right corner
go to settings>>storage>>click on external sdcard>>top corner 3dots>>settings>> format
then move media to sdcard.
Your SD card is showing in the file manager. You've 32gb sd card right? "FD89-1CE6" is your sd card. For titanium backup you need go to TB settings and set the backup directory to SD CARD ( FD89-1CE6)

Yeah, Thank you very much, i just did it last night, kinda having trouble with the superSU at first though, I tried to patched Titanium Backup on lucky patcher and it kept saying that I need to root my device, so i had to reflash superSU again. Thank god it went through. Now I having trouble with the internal SD card, I couldn't get it my play store to install app to my sd card or to re-direct my app to read file in my Sd card, for example I installed Chaos ring 3, I had to move all the file from my sd card to internal, it's knilling my internal storage TT^TT . Does anyone have a solution for that, please let me know.... I think everybody have the same problem though, does anyone know how to fix this solution? :crying::crying:

In Android 6.0, once you format ur external sd card as internal it becomes a part of ur internal memory and functions as internal one(the external SD card won't show up in file managers). Hence the phone decides where your app is installed either the real internal memory or the now formatted SD card working as internal memory.
If you don't format it as internal memory. The apps won't install on external SD card and you can't move the apps to external SD card.

No you can't coz the data on your sd card will be encripted n you won't be able to read it on your computer via card reader. I'd suggest you to keep your sd card as "portable device" if you want to transfer data via card reader.
