1.2g is absolutely not enough even for the apps i have on the motion

will this work as it does for the motion??

i'll keep my fingers crossed and maybe someone will try it.

thanks in advance

You can try it, but Link2SD is a lot easier to use and likely safer, it also gives you an interface to select what apps to move. I'm using it, several others here are using it as well.

I used app called "Root App Delete" from google play store.
It tells me which apps I can move to SD card, and let me erase blotwares that I don't use

+1 for link2SD

For games with large data files, or obb files, use GL to SD.

That's because you clicked on "Move to SD". You have to click on "Create Link".

Hi guys.
I just got f3 and i am struggling to figure out how link2sd works.
My phone is rooted using motorchopper.
I couldnt figure out how to make 2nd partition.
Can someone explain me simply how to use Link2sd as if i were 10 years old?
What i really wanna achieve from rooting is to download and install Apps on sd card directly from play store. Is this possible on this phone?
I can`t download apps thats bigger than 600mb.
Thanks in advance.

Someone has a nice link in this thread:

There is an option under setting on Link2SD to auto link files.
This can be good and bad at the same time. Found out the hard way with the optimus V.
Ran an app to install some script or something and it linked it to the externalSD instead of the internal. Made a soft brick if I recall correctly.
So you might want to toggle the option to auto link only when needed.

I have Linke2Sd and App2Sd.. but LInk2S says that our phone is incompatible with App2SD ... cannot move the files .... did I set up Link2Sd / the SD card partition wrong? Or is that just the way it is with our phone?

The "Move to SD Card" button in Link2SD won't work, App2SD is not available in this Android version. You have to use the "Create Link" button to move the apps to the SD card.
