Root FolderMount

It is interesting that we have good coverage of Link2SD but few mentioned FolderMount.

I do not think Link2SD can move data in "internal SD card", but FolderMount can. Both work great on L70. With Link2SD and FolderMount, technically we can move all user apps and data to real SD card (with paid versions).
 
Um...link2sd CAN move internal data...but that is a "pro" feature, unlocked by purchasing the application.

I purchased link2sd+ and it works very well. The ONLY problem I've noticed is facebook. When internal data is linked, FB gets seriously sluggy. Solution was to unlink the internal data for that app, and no more issues.

Satisfied customer over here.

From the play store:
Plus features added
✔ Links internal data directory of the apps to SD card
You need to use a non-FAT file system (ext2, ext3, ext4 or f2fs) on your second partition in order to link app's private data files. Because the FAT file system (FAT16, FAT32 or exFAT) does not support UNIX file ownership or permissions and will cause a security breakdown of app's private files.✔ Links dex files of the system apps to SD card
✔ Auto clear cache service
✔ Removes ads from Link2SD

Are your sure it can move data in "internal SD card" (/sdcard/), not just the data files in /data/data/? How about obb files? Can link2sd move obb files too? If so, I guess link2sd is the only app we need.

I did not purchase the pro version just because as a programmer I thought I could do all these by myself from the command line.
