Root [Sprint] moving apps 2 sd note 2

[Austin314StL]

I need to move my apps off of sd card because im running out of space.

phone: samsung galaxy note2 on sprint sph-l900
android 4.1.1
kernal3.0.36-persius-alpha 29
Macksrom 4.0
16gb internal and 32gb sd card

Im down to 3gb on sd card and decided to root and rom my phone to gain ability to move the apps, what I didnt know is that the way im attempting to move them requires a partition to be made on the sd card using link2sd.

After reading a tut on how to create the partition I need some advice before I proceed.
1. Can I create the partition and reformat my current sd card without loosing data?

2. Should I just buy a 64gb card, make the partition and move my data from old card to it?

3. Is there a way to increase internal storage? (I should have waited for the 32gb and 64gb versions to release... I know )

Dont use the partition method.

Use directory bind

Moving apks saves no space on devices like ours. Its the sdcard data you need moving.

There's not much you can do as far as gaining space on the internal sdcard unless you delete unwanted data or unneeded apps. Do you have your nandroids, rom zips, pictures... on external sdcard. With 11.8gb available on internal, I have around 10gb available

So there is no way to move this data from internal storage to external? Delete is the only option?

There are a few swap scripts out there which swap internal for external but...
