Is there any way to install Apps into SD card instead of phone memory? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I am running Darkstone Android. I would like to install all my apps onto the SD card instead of the phone memory. Is there any way to do that?
Thanks

Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Select the app you want to move > Move to SD card. If you can it'll be available, otherwise it won't

Storing and Running apps from SD Card

How do I "properly" do this? Is it the option on ROM Manager where it says "partition SD Card? or is there another way I am suppose to do it.....? Please help...My phone is getting bogged down or held back because I am using too much memory on the phone. Thanks, Ratmuscle

Depends if your rom supports it & of course you have an ext 3/4 partition, if all is good go get you apps2sd, for me on the evio rom it can be enabled in spare parts...
Or go to settings/applications & you can move some of them to the sd, you should see the option there if the app supports it, in froyo.

Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications -> "Application Name" -> Move to SD
It doesn't give me the option to move it to my sd...if I click on the app itself in manage apps....it doesn't say move ti sd anywhere....any suggestions?

Why don't you use apps2ext so they go on an ext partition? Froyo apps2sd kinda sucks IMO, makes things slower to mount, more problems with apps not showing up after a reboot, breaks widgets, only moves part of the space used for an application, etc..
And wouldn't this be a better question on the Modoco forum? Maybe I'm wrong

when you connect to pc via usb cable choose disc drive on phone and wait for pop up
you can then put apk files onto sd card then disconnect and navigate to apk with file explorer, open and install,
you will also have to check unknown sources in applications settings
If you are using normal froyo app2sd. Settings > applications > manage applications > go to an app and pick move to sd.
But are apps in SD slower than apps in phone?
If you have a slow sd card and the app has to support froyo app to sd

Since all the apps cant be installed to sd card, therefore i recommend you download "app2sd enabler" from the market. after downloading it, just go to settings>applications>manage applications. and you can move you desired apps to sd card.
I have done it with the following tutorial

I just told you, read my post above... if you have an ext partition and app2ext enabled, they move auto to your sd, you need to darktremmor for this.

If you do the following MOD, Applications which support them self to install in SD card will automatically goes to SD card.

Applications which do not have support must be installed to phone first and then have to moved to SD card through Application Manager.

Settings > application > open the app and make sure the second block on the right says "move to phone"... if it says that, then you then application is on the SD card. Or you can check the market for one of many free applications
Ok tried that doesn't let me save to sd card, now is that the only way or is there an app for that?

Ok got that I understand but I want to know if there is a way to move the apps that are not highlighted. The ones you can't move is there a app for that.
all apps cannot be moved to the sd card. if you used the method that was explained to you before and its grayed out, but not on the sd card, then chances are it cant be moved! an app has to have that option built into it in order to be moved to the sd card. you can contact the developer and see if the have plans to or to request that option!
Try appmonster it backups your apps if that's what you're asking

The themes should automatically be stored to the SDcard. Are you talking about the "theme setup"?
Yeah their not going to my sdcard okay I will tell you what I'm trying to do. I wanted to get one theme to put on my computer then use that theme to customize it to the way I like it. Would be easier than trying to figure out how to make one. Or if there is other way I'm all ears.
If it won't move to SD card, since you are rooted you can find it on your phone and COPY the folder/file to another place on the SD card, then connect to computer and drag and drop the copied file.

[Q] Help moving big apps to my sd card.

I'm trying to move anomaly 2 to my sd card, but it doesn't work. When I go to the application manager I have the option to move it to my sd card, but when I try it takes forever and then at the end it says unable to move app. I have moved many apps this way, but this one wont move. The only difference I can think of is the size of the app, anomaly 2 is 1.8gb which is the biggest game I have. I am using kitkat 4.4.2, and I am also rooted (this problem happened before I rooted though.)

You cannot move data app to sd-card
it s just for .apk
it means system install it on sd-card but Data will remains in internal memory
But do u use built-in app manager or another app?

I don't mind if I cant move the data, I just want to move the huge app from my internal storage to my sd card. I used the built-in app manager.

IF "move to sd-card" option is available in built-in app manager but u cannot move it.
that can be bug in that app. ask other user of app or its developer

Thanks, I didn't know it was up to the developer. I emailed the developer and unfortunately, I can't move it. Is there anyway to move it since my phone is rooted?

(that is available on galaxy devices by default)
