Root using "Directory Bind" to move to "external sd"

How successful have people been using this program?


http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262

It appears from the description to be able to move the items.

The problem I have is I don't know what file part to move when I use the browse feature, and I miss the 1 click convenience of App2SD that I had on the Optimus V.

I DO need a way to move items to my external SD and I need a setting that allows everything to default save and install there.

Op Eliite really missed the boat..

I really miss the wifi hotspot on the V... Barnacle knocks me off and drops frequently.
 
I've used Directory Bind before for a gameloft game. It worked but the game was really laggy seeing my micro-sd is a cheap Kodak card I got for 10 bucks at walmart. If you're going to use directory bind make sure you have a really fast micro-sd.
 
Try this :

JUST TO CLARIFY:
There is in fact a way to move apps, at least partially to the external SD, it does move a majority portion of whatever apps you are able to move, to the ExternalSD. I have tested this myself to be safe FOR ME. I am still unsure of its absolute stability and it was not brought to the forums by me. It was produced by other developers who's names are clearly stated in its script. This is a CWM flashable zip. Meaning you FLASH IT IN RECOVERY. I think that confidence in its use has been stifled by the manner in which it was initially presented by a controversial member here at the forums. However I have not been the witness of any malicious activity by using the script itself after flashing through recovery. This DOES NOT have a user interface and is not interacted with through an app. It makes your stock system apps2sd ability change its storage location to ExternalSD by default. Meaning you go into Manage apps just like you always do and click the little button that says MOVE TO INTERNAL MEMORY. Once again it will default the move location to the ExternalSD. I'm placing the available .zip below......
I will NOT be responsible for how this reacts on your phone or for you using it improperly in a way that was not described here.

Download the zip file, and load into ClockWorkMod recovery, flash like you would anything else AND if you don't know how anything else would be flashed in the first place then obviously you should be doing some other things before even considering doing anything with this.
Thanks Enjoy

**I would also suggest downloading the universal init.d support app from the play store to ensure that the script will run, since there have been reports that our current method of init.d support is not fully functional.
