Apps to SD on Atrix

Hello Forum -

I am trying (still) to move apps to the external SD on my Atrix. It shows that apps have been moved by apps such as Apps2SD but in fact they are simply moving the apps to internal SD ("media area"). I've used both the phones File Manager and Apps to SD to move the apps.

I spoke with Motorolla support but they couldn't help.

Thank you!
 
I have been told by an app developer The Atrix probably doesn't support moving apps to SD - only apps to Media. Is this true? Have no idea.
I know on mine if I go to "Applicatoin Info," I have "Move to Media Area," not "Move to SD."
Like you, I would like a definitive answer.

I haven't tried this yet... I will probably try tonight if I can get to it (when it comes to areas I have no experience in, I have to read, re-read, and re-read to make sure I don't screw up my phone or make it vulnerable).

Anyway, I found these 2 forums... hopefully it hlps:

Hello - I am just curious if you tried this yet on your phone??

Thanks!
 
hey, sorry - don't mean to abandon you.

I haven't tried it yet... I will try tonight or over this weekend... or at least determine if the risk is worth it :)

i don't wanna brick the phone just yet
 
I use App2Sd and it seems to move the apps there, and allows me to move them to the media area as well.

Is there something I can look at/read/check out on the phone that will allow me to clarify this?

Hi - On my phone (Atrix) I have tried Apps2SD and other apps to move apps. They look like they have moved the apps successfully but in reality they are only moving the apps to Internal SD (Media Area).

Do you have an Atrix?
