Cannot move to sd - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have an unrootd galaxy s5. I am not allowed to root. I recently had a software update come through. I am now no longer able to move apps to my sd card. When the update came through it renamed my sd card and my applications that had links to various folders had to be changed because the old name and path were no longer valid.
When I try the app manager there is no option to move to sd. It is not grayed out, instead it is no longer there. See attached screen shot.
When I try to use an app that is for moving apps to sd card, I get an error saying my device does not support this option.
I have greenify running to kill many system apps I do not use, could this be apart of the issue or is it something else?

nah thats not the option, marshmallow probably doesn't allow it

It is a company phone.

You just have to click on the storage in that apps settings then it should take you to more options for the app and you can change it there.

Maybe you might have been trying to download a big file.

BlackMarket, nova launcher. i think thats it
I to am getting this error and have no idea on how to fix it. I have cleared both caches. If it helps I'm rooted on MDC and have the oedex wifi mod installed.
I got that error for one application when it was trying to be updated in the Play store - Android Tuner. I got around it by using ES explorer and deleting the odex file then reattempting app update.
I have 6.2 GB free and I am unable to update or install apps.
I have wiped dalvik and rebooted.
Update: this is apparently only an issue for updating apps. Also if I unistall and try to reinstall it will throw the error message.
I had installed Modern Combat 4 but it ate up my storage. I uninstalled and move clockwork and all my cached wallpapers to the sd card.
The apps that I'm currently experiencing this issue with are google drive and vine.

Only workaround I could find was a total wipe and reflash.

I had a feeling it was going to come down to having to do a flash and wipe

[Q] Apps and pics don't store on SD card

I have a Motorola droid razr m model XT907 on 4.1.2. It's rooted and GSM unlocked. How do I make apps install and pictures store on the SD card by default?
Jelly bean doesn't have apps to SD card. Unless you are on specific devices like the galaxy tab.

As for pictures I think you should be able to set the option through the camera or gallery app.

That was easy enough. I was looking in settings. Thanks
Yup. No problem.

can i transfer modded apps from one device to another

Sorry about the title i was confused on what to put
So my tablet is rooted and i have modified some files on an app which you have to be rooted to modify. All i want to know is if it is possible to transfer the app onto my phone which is not rooted. i was thinking maybe there is a way to make the app back into an apk with the modified files buy im confused on how i would do that.
You won't be able to as you would need root permissions

Filesystems

HI,
I have been using drive droid for quite a good time now and it is a great app but I also hate that fat32 max file size is 4 GB and i was looking for a method to change my filesystem on my ExtSdCard to ext4 or f2fs..just want to be able to store huge files without any problem.
So,Does anyone here use (or know how to) another filesystem so he can guide through the proccess ?
Thx in advance...using Core Prime G360H..Stock Rom..Vegito kernel
(I have no problem in installing other Roms if I need to)

Damn sorry about that. Plug SD card to PC using a card reader and format it back to fat32
