Root Moving Apps To Sd

[arkansawdave74]

No the pie graph shows how much of the app is on SD or internal

Yeah... I had just edited that post.... Thanks for answering so fast... Lol. But it was still in my internal..... I don't get it.

 

[arkansawdave74]

Should I delete it from internal? I backed it up 1st.

Well I just got back from the library. Stock roms read my 64gig now. I found that our TWRP won't partition... Says it can't find the device to partition. So I used aparted on butternoob and made a 12 gig ext4 partition. I linked Real Racing 3 on the walk back and it said it was successful. I just got back so I haven't messed with it yet, but I did check the size of its data folder in my internal.... It's still 2.63 gigs. Do you have to hit move also, or just link? Oh well, I'll play with it a bit and see if I can get that huge folder to the ext4 partition... Gonna eat and cool down a bit first. I just hope it's not a ROM related problem... I really like this PAC ROM. I wouldn't mind checking out some others though... Any recommendations?

All u can say is make sure u had r/w when u linked, reboot afterwards, and compare internal storage in settings before and after. Mine shows the app folder still being there and large, but in stoage settings is where i see the differance. The move to SD is the stock move to SD feature that don't work on our roms

Yeah, I knew that about the move part, but you can still see a large folder in the internal, huh? That's great info... Lemme try it again...

Hmm... Someone on a ZTE Olympia just got into my Google account... They're requesting a new Facebook password. I've gotten 5 texts from Facebook in the past 10 minutes about a requested password change, so I checked google dashboard to see recent activity. They just got into my account 20 minutes ago...wish they'd just try the same password so Facebook would quit texting me... Lol

 

[arkansawdave74]

Wait a minute... The Olympia is another name for the Zmax?

Not that I'm aware of, as far as I know its a dif phone

 

[arkansawdave74]

Yeah... Google zte Olympia.... It's the Zmax. Well, fellows.... Link2sd worked!! I had 1.81 gigs of free space before linking Real Racing 3, and now look what it shows.... Link2sd confuses the the storage volumes just like "obb on sd" in xposed.... But that's okay.... You just got yourself a best answer for all your help, @ravenslight. Thank you so much!! Man, I love this phone!

Which app is that? And where is Madden's folder in sdcard0/Android...is it in data, or obb?

 

[valve_timing]

That's apps2sd and madden is currently on internal sd

 

[arkansawdave74]

But which folder is its data in? data or obb? Look in emulated/Android and check both the data and the obb folder to see which one has com.ea.games.madden........

Its in the obb folder

 

[arkansawdave74]

Its in the obb folder

I've never used app2sd, but I would try the link obb folder first, and if that doesn't work i'd unlink and try the link external Data folder option.

 

[arkansawdave74]

After you link, check the storage in settings to see if it worked.

Gonna give it. Shot got the links2sd plus now thanks man. You should post this on the Google plus zmsx community. I'm sure a lot of people would be happy.

 

[valve_timing]

Seems to have worked thank you sir

For apps2sd you will want to move obb and external data, that's where most of the data is

So for games just link obb and for regular apps can I link whole file or ?

 

[arkansawdave74]

For games that take a lot of cpu, I just link the bottom button. It probably helps if u have a class 10 sd card...mines a 4. Maybe with a class 10 you could move the whole game.
