Hello guys, I just got my N7100 yesterday, Its a real awesome device, seriously !!
However, I had HTC Desire C before N7100, And I used to put games sd data on sd card/Android/obb
but on N7100 I have to put sd data on the phone memory, which is phone/Android/obb for example
whenever i try to put sd data on sd card it doesn't get read, like the phone reads sd data only from phone memory and it doesn't support reading sd files from sd card !
For example Amzaing Spider-man has a SD data of 1.4gb, It should be putted on SD card/Gameloft, But when I did that, the device didn't read them .. but it worked when I moved the SD data to Phone/Gameloft
and the same thing with obb files, etc
Still, The sd card works great with no problems at all !!
( my device is not rooted )
And thx in advance <3
Unfortunately the device doesn't support moving games to external sd card. If you have noticed there isn't the option move to sd card in the apps settings. There are 2 ways to solve the issue but require root. If someone knows something more he should help.
I've been *****ing about this since I got my Note 2. It's complete madness and I believe harmful to android in many ways. The really annoying thing is that no-one mentions it when you buy the phone. Samsung even gloats about the GN2 and S3's expandable memory!!! They don't mention that is only good for private files and films you may have pirated! You can not ever have off-line Spotify playlist on the SD card. I filled my SD (within 1GB) in 10 days.
Maybe Google's plan is a return to the dark ages. Maybe they will start selling games on memery cards or more likely they are planning to sell Android powered game consoles!!
Consoles that would not sell if we all had the equivalent in our pockets with expandable memories and which just sat on a shelf after a 2 year contract and the launch of a new flagship.
Wow !! .. It sounds like a major problem, Could I get a solution even if I root my phone ? .. ( But with a step-by-step guide please ) ^_^
Update :
How about this app ?
Does it work on Note II ?
If so, Could anyone please give me a tutorial starting from rooting my phone until using this app ?
Sorry for being such a newbie but I really don't know a thing about rooting
and thx for everyone
Root and use gl to sd(search on play) its very easy to use i dont think u need a guide. Just press menu key and click move data.

Okay, you know when u go to task manager, then u click on the Storage part...
Mine shows, 3 different storage locations, and how much is stores there...
First is System Storage
Second is USB Storage
Third is SD Card Storage
For some reason, everything on my phone, is only going to the USB storage now & so I have no room left.
I have lots of games & apps on my phone... Most I "moved to SD card".. Or so I thought...
If I go to an app & it says that it is installed on SD card, wouldn't that mean that it is on the SD Card storage??
I can't figure out why all my USB storage is gone now & I have almost all my SD Card storage space still available...
What could be the issue here?? It never used to be like this..
Anyone have any ideas.as what I can do to resolve this issue..
Any input, would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks guys!

The phone saves everything to the internal storage natively. I don't remember if the stock rom labels the internal as SD card and the external as external_SD or if it's just calk's rom. But if it does that could explain why when your trying to push stuff to the SD it's not working since the phones reads internal as SD card. You could try and look in the settings if your using an app to push stuff and specify the location or there's a thread in general I believe that shows how to make your external your "internal" storage and anything new should be saved to it.

You basically have to start to delete stuff you don't need. Go to system settings and storage and start from there. You can actually move apps to the sd card. There's a hack in the development section posted by zedomax. I haven't tried it but you can check it out. Make sure you carefully read the instructions.

This is my first time with this phone running anything aosp so I'm kind of new to this.
Any idea or suggestions? I'm on liquid smooth rc7 w/ ktoonz kernel btw.

Yeah I tried that. I even tried the sdcard.org site but for some reason my sd card wasn't recognized! I have a mac so I just used disc utility. The funny thing is, I formatted the card, dragged my ring tones to the card and tested. They showed up, so I dragged the rest of it over. My stuff disappeared and wasn't seen in the gallery, but was in root explorer.
Is there a folder or file or something that determines the formatting? I have a lost.dir folder that comes up and I have no idea why.

Ok, the lost.dir is normal.
Go into app manager, clear cache and data for Media Storage, then reboot and wait a few min for it to rescan.

Get huge games to external SD(micro SD) and work fine in galaxy grand duos..this applied to all phones who need more storage...
So you can easily move the game data files to external SD card and solve the problems that internal SD space is too small.It also applies to other games data to external SD, such as gun bros, Dungeon Defenders.
Users can customize the mounted folder in setting.Must wait for data loading is complete, and set the folder with the corresponding app.It can be used in exceptional folder or navigation, etc.

1.For new user,using "move data" function move your game data to external SD.
(Android/data folder is moved to "external path/data" ,gameloft/games folder is moved to "external path/games",and Android/obb is moved to "external path/obb" folder in the SD card)
2.Run this program.It lists games and click 'open' to play.
3.For old version(v1.x.x). If you wanted see other games (not gameloft)
,press Menu->Click "Setting"->Check "/sdcard/Android"->back to list.
4.If you want to click the desktop icon to execute,You need to uncheck "unmount when leave" and click mount.
5.Press and hold can remove game item.
6.If you flashed new rom or updated and "GL to SD" didn't work,please clean the data of "GL to SD".
7.Note that this app is not compatible with other mount app or script, for this would interfere with each other and causing the umount timeout.

Method -2
Root External to internal apps..(works only on touchwiz roms)
wanted to swap your internal sdcard and your external sdcard? Yes, you can ! ... fix this annoying thing which make your phone using only few GB when you a full 64GB or even a 32GB one...
it works with every devices with external sdcards
For example, you own a Galaxy S3 with 16 internal GB and a 32GB external sdcard > as a result, you only have around 13GB to install apps (and their data even if they install these files on the "external sdcard" since it is /sdcard which is ... the internal one >> thanks samsung for not having change the getExternalFolder() in the source *kof* )
so the application is VERY simple :
on the main screen you can choose to change the sdcards until the phone reboot or at every boots
Now, the "difficult" part (lol), in which not that I am not responsible for problem but I am here to help to resolve everything (!)
In the settings, often update the rom configuration lists with the item at the top/right button
------------
Swap the devices
-----
first of all, copy the internal sdcard Android folder to the external one to "update" the external sdcard and prevent bug in your apps
If your rom/device is in the list > click on it to check it and go to the main screen, then update the mode you want
if your device does not appear, you will have to customize the script
> select the original internal sdcard folder
> select the original external sdcard folder
> select the device which represent the sdcard at the system level (tricky!)
to manage the last part :
1/ click on the last option to see the whole device list
2/ seek for a vfat device (if your sdcard is a fat32 one), ext4 if it was formatted to ext4, etc...
3.a/ if you found it, click on it and go to the main screen and go back to setting screen to check if the device in custom area changed
4/ go back to the main screen and update the script if you want (boot only)
3.b/ if you did not find it, you can send me the list to help find the device, and then I will be able to update the device list, fix bugs, etc...
note-
If you have duplicated folder in the gallery, etc..., delete every .thumbnails folder in your sdcards

Whenever I was a beginner in android. This question comes on my mind y Nfs most wanted hangs and not responding for sometime. The reason I found was... Use class 10 memory card to pay games smoothly..if your game data saved in sd card.. This solved my 80% problem.. Rest 10% I solved go to settings developers options pls check force 2D acceleration so this pushes 2D graphics to work better on Nfs most wanted to avoid glitches.... Rest 10% I solved by tweaking the phone settings... For this you have to download ANY games booster applications from playstore... Thus I made a 100% success in playing Nfs most wanted without any single lag.... Last and least don't forgot to turn off power saving mode.. If will boost cpu power from 800mhz to 1.2ghz.and gpu frame rate from 27Fps to 58.8fps.. Hope this will give some ideas about to play any Hd games smoothly...

To gain more power and lag free you have to root the phone and remove the Samsung bloatwares which using 80% of ram....... Think... Even I'm also in stock rom only I removed some bloatwares which using processor and ram unnecessarily. Also gain good battery life...

Put data in sd card and free up phone memory make sure the sd card should be class 10 category. Don't use game booster root sometimes it works., sometimes it doesn't. Don't use any task killer. If you are using any battery saver switch off auto task killer... in developers option tick 2d hardware rending. ..switch off animations. Like 1x 2x etc. .freeze any social networking services it eats more memory in background. .if you using game booster. Check emergency restart option. ..I think you are in s2 build. Rev ert back to stock build.prop
