Use file manager or whatever you use go to your sd card and check the data folders it will be in there somewhere

Hi I'm having problems with moving my apps from internal storage to my sd card seems titanium backup does it but the apps are still on my internal storage I also tried rOM Toolbox pro and same result I'm trying to figure out why my apps won't move to my sd card since my internal memory is being all used up I can't download more . Also the apps in the playstore don't work either

there is an app called "APP BACKUP AND RESTORE". Download this app on your old phone. Open the app and transfer all desired app onto your SD card. Next, install the same app on your new phone. there is and option to restore all apps from SD card to your new phone. I've done this and it took about 10-15 minutes (depending on how many apps you are trying to transfer). HOPE THIS HELPS

The newer Samsungs are different in how they handle the SD card. They have their 2 GB internal memory, and therefore see the 16 GB internal memory mistakenly as the "SD card". Your actual SD card is mounted as a different partition altogether.
Someone help me out with this, but I don't think the standard App2SD will work because of this design. Somewhere out there is a mod that allows you to fake swap your internal memory with your SD card, but I've never tried it. I don't run a lot of huge applications so I haven't run into the issue, just seen it around.
Hopefully some searching will help with what I mentioned above or someone else can chime in with more experience.

How to move apps to ext sd card

Does anybody know how to move apps from the internal memory to th ext sd card coz am running out of memory!!

Folder mount or use script manager and the galaxy note app 2 SD script. Beware. You will get some minor quirks you will need to fix. Like ringtone sounds getting lost or camera not knowing where to store images until you retick where.

Moving Apps to External SDCard??

I found an app that lets me "replace" my internal sdcard with my external
"Root External 2 Internal SD"
Directions are to move my Android folder to the external card and then run the app
I also found an app called "AppMgr III"
Are there any disadvantages to moving my external sdcard to the internal?
foldermount works better imho.......root to external on custom roms is a bit tricky
I ended up just moving the whole android folder over to the external. Then deleted the contents of the data and obb folders in the internal and reboot. All is well

Really need an app!
We really need an app that will do this easily. Or, google needs to make this function a part of the OS. It should be an option where to install the apps. imho

[Q] Deleting old files from phone

Sometimes when I flash a new rom files disappear but they are still taking up memory. I used Es File explorer to find them and deleted them. I was able to find the files but it will say it cannot find the location so it cannot delete them.
They are mostly music files and .zip files from roms, is their any way to delete them or format my phone without having to having to reinstall a bunch of stuff?
This happens because the new rom you flashed created a new partition on your phone.
2 fixes.
1. Restore previous rom and delete the internal storage. Our move it to the external so card.
2. If you don't mind losing the data. Format your internal SD card (media) in CWM

If I format my internal SD card will the phone still work fine? I don't mind losing any apps/media/files etc.
Yeah if you format the internal SD card data/media it will clear the space the phone will still work, but app data will be lost.

I've typically found apps to external sd to be unreliable and I also found from experience the more your external sd is used, the greater the drain on battery life. Throw media (music, photos, etc) on your external sd and any roms, backups to limit their impact on your internal sd and also to maintain good battery life.
I agree, moving apps to SD is not such a good idea. Maybe move only obb files from large games to SD card - you can use FolderMount to map SD card folders to internal storage. You can also use it to move i.e. GPS apps maps to SD card etc.
If you are running low on memory I recommend folder mount for moving things to sd card. A lot of people use the internal to external memory switch script but I've not tried that myself
