if you want space specifically so that you can play/install more then 1 hd games, then use gl to sd...it will move ur game data from phone to memory card and all you have to do is open gl sd app and Mount game and play...... that way you can have as many games you want.. i have fifa14 mc4 and asphalt 8 @ same time.. thanks to this app ..
hope i helped.....

swapping method only works in JB 4.1.2 not in 4.4(CM11) or OFFCIAL JB 4.2.2 as the workaround is that you can download GL2SD which actually mounts the particular folder for you to play the game with data on external SD card...but remember before installing any game you have to have to place data FIRST in internal sd card then TRANSFER the data through and only through the APP(gl2sd) and game will work fine..
don't forget the thanks button..

Hi there,
Its my first post so please ignore if I am repeating this querry.
BTW I am using my note II and its been great experince so far.
What I want to know is that:-
1.I found out that I cannot have games more than the devices memory as internal memory gets full and I have to delete some game every time when i am installing a new one, the more pain is that in this thing i also have to lose my all saved data.
2. Cant receive files to SD card when ever internal memory is full,although i have 32 gb ext card totally free, It's very heartbreaking to face this issue on a best phone.
Please tell me the best possible solution to these to issues. I'll be very thankfull to you all.
Other details:
I am not rooted and also don't want to do it.

Unfortunately for you rooting is the only solution if you want to move apps or install them on your external memory directly. Just in case you decide to finally root your phone you can use apps like directorybind or apps2sd... They work perfectly fine as long as you follow exact instructions.

Hi bushako,thanks for helping.
kindly let me know if i root, am I i able to retain my saved game data also? and if i want to play the same game after deleting it can i get the same working with saves?
also let me know other best apps for this whole thing.
Yes rooting will not format or erase your apps/saved games. It's just a matter of letting certain apps have access to your root directory which by default is disabled, there are many threads on instructions on safely rooting your phone. As for retaining the saved game after deleting the app I'm not sure but I think the only way is to manually access the files where the saved games are stored and backing them up. Another method I would choose is by using Titanium Backup app, but it will require rooting. It will allow you to backup all or individual games onto the external sd card including there data. So that you can restore the game with the saved data anytime in the future.
Sent from the Rabbit Hole
Best thing is to root and use the mod to switch your internal sd and external sd... so the phone reads your 32gb ext sd card as internal and installs all your games on it with the data

I am rioted and am running on full stock. How to use apps2sd to move it to the mem card ?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
@ KyleDevlin12....dont use that stupid apps2sd..it doesnt work dude....the best and ONLY solution is use directory bind...soo easy to use...in 3 steps your games are in your external memory...Or another method...if you want to use the mod which change the external into internal memory ...than u have to buy a 64 gb sd card..otherwise it isnt worth to use this mod.
So from my own experience ....Directory bind is the king in this case.
hope i helped you out.
Best Regards.
Not quoting many post, just to add
-Root device
-Root won't erase anything (though always prefer backup), even rooting only can backup game level etc.
-Directory bind i recommend. This also survice your data while factory reset. Read This

I tried link2sd but I get this notice
App2SD is not supported by your device. Because your device has a primary external storage which is emulated from the internal storage. You can link the app in order to move its files to your SD card.

It will not automatically do that. You will have to open ext2int application and configure it.
Use Gl to sd application.. It has a great developer support... This external to internal application last updated on Nov 2012.so there are so many bugs like duplications of files... Obviously applications install in phone memory only data files will move to the sd card. If you want to move only applications. Use link 2 sd... But data files cannot be moved using link 2 sd application..

:good: Your answer has the price of gold!!!! That's exactly what I wanted - to move the application data.
The cyanogenmod I installed yesterday has driven me crazy! In the LG's original rom I used automatic script with `mount --bind` command, it worked perfectly, in cyanogenmod it has very a strange behavior. Although I could see in `df` it was bound and could see the files from external storage at that location, but the applications still wrote to the internal storage somehow transparently in the background. Don't ask me why and how it was possible, but it made me angry. Now I'm keeping the cyanogenmod in my phone.

Yes I have tried to reinstall today and still shows blank list of applications. meantime using ext2 int, my sd card which is now the internal storage has been reduced from 14gb to 11 gb so far --- evidence that my installed applications have installed on the sd card and not on internal memory of the phone(which is now the external).
I am happy with it so far.
As for gaming I use my galaxy note for that. Also the note has "move to sd" natively.

I like foldermount.
Add luckypatcher and buy pro, then you have unlimited mounts available. And also this program is better cuz it is MUCH simpler to use.
hi guys ..i m just sharing what i found on internet..
its very simple[NOTE : root is needed]
download gl to sd app from playstore ,,.link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slf.ListglApp
download any game u want
then open gl to sd app,,. in that open option and select move data...and move data of ur game in that list.....[NOTEnly game data ...not game app,u can see game data in down of list]
then wait for converstion..then on gl to sd app's main page click the chain icon and it is for mount ,..then u can play any game..\

Link2SD works perfectly fine on my phone. Rooted with Super SU, Bootloader locked! However you should note that, since the Firmware we are using is stock firmware, it might not have support for EXT2, 3, 4 filesystems as the second parititon of the SD Card, I already tried, so you're going to have to format the second parititon of your SD card using FAT32,using minitool home parititon wizard, then use LINK2SD, it should work perfect. But even then, you can move the App, Dex files and Lib files, which work fine for apps, but the games have an additional SD data or OBB files, which cant be moved to SD card. Meaning to perfectly play games on our Xperia M, you need to have a combination of Link2SD and GL to SD apps, GL to SD helps link./ mount the games on SD card and bind them to the apps, and make them appear as if they were on the internal SD.

Download link2sd and install the app,
Then, connect your memory card via a card reader.
Download Mini Tool Home Partition Wizard(Google it)
open the Mini Tool and select your memory card,
Assuming you backed up the data on your memory card,
Format the drive for best results, and create a new parition, File type FAT32. Type: PRIMARY!! Set the file size...
Leave whatever amount of space you want for the Apps partition.
Then create another partition on the SD card.
It will say that the second partition will not be viewable on Windows, Click OK.
Then change partition type to FAT32... Size is your wish. And Type: Primary!!
Then save changes, Now you should have two partitions on your SD card,
Both are FAT32 and both are PRIMARY!!! -This is necessary.
Then put back the Mem card in the phone,
Open LINK2SD, select second partition as FAT32, reboot the phone, and
You should be able to now expand the memory of your phone... Transfer apps to Memory card!
