Root Swap memory

Has anyone had any success with swapping their internal memory with your sd card ?

I keep getting low memory and insufficient memory errors from Google Playstore.

I've managed to swap phone memory (normally /mnt/sdcard) with SD card no problem (normally /mnt/sdcard/ext_sd). This pretty much solved my space issues along with moving apps to "phone memory" (ie my external SD card)

I got it to work but some of my apps were still on the 1gb that was left over from the rom and kept saying that I didn't have enough space even though. I have 3gb internal and 20 gigs on the sd card.

About how many apps do you have installed?

Can you please tell me how you did this boss? Through /system?
 
There's a post about swap memory for the HTC One Sv on xda already.
