    external sd card storage

    I have a Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 that has been rooted and is running Cyanogenmod. Is there any way to move apps to the external sd card (16gb)? The internal storage is full and that makes it very limited. I'm an Android "newbie" so if its possible, the simpler the better! Thanks!

    I've noticed in the past month or 2 a faint, hairlike line across my screen. It's there on the lock screen, home screen and it doesn't change when I rotate the tablet. It's not a crack. What is it and how can I get rid of it. Or have I worn out my tablet?
