Phone memory is faster....but smaller
SD had more space but slower....
Make your choose?
I reccomend most important apps leave phone memory and less important apps you can move sd card.

Thanks for the reply guys but Im not trying to move my apps to the sd card . Im trying to make the data that the apps download go to the sd card

I don't think you can. The internal storage is mounted to /mnt/sdcard, and apps seem to always put their downloaded data on /mnt/sdcard. Only tip I can give is to move all your music, pics and videos to the external card to make room for the app data.
Or, move game data to the external sd card when you're not using it, then move it back when you want to play that game.

Hey guys I figured out that cyanogen has that option to use internal or external sd for data storage. Is there a stock rom that offers it?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
No, at least not on any stock based android I've seen. Cyanogenmod was designed to be installed onto the ext sd card. The 'option' it gives is to use the internal, not the other way around. Technical difference, but nonetheless.
I've never seen a stock based 'prom' (that's for you gary) for any phone that had android installed onto the ext sd card.

So with stock Rom apps all have to stay on internal sd?

It looks like it, even game data. Atleast thats how it is with the international version and theres no move to sd option in the setting. I dont see why it would be different for US version. The only other option I can think of is when theres root you can use GL to SD so you can move large game data to micro sd and leave the apps in internal. This is a better solution if you have large game data.
Makes it tough to plug and play a preexisting sd card since apps are looking for saved data in the usual sd location.
Like you said, I'm sure once we custom roms things will be different

Anybody been able to get Doubletwist to use the removable SD card? I have a lot of music and a 32 gig card so it would be nice if my favorite player would see my storage media. Thanks in advance.

I don't know what to tell you, dude. Maybe try going to settings, applications, and clear cache for Double Twist and also for Media Storage.

Just installed doubletwist and put in my 32gb sd, found all the music automagically. Only thing I can think of is your card needs to be formatted. Fat32 I believe, not sure because mine worked however it was already formatted.
It's weird because titanium sees it fine. So does root Explorer. I'll try format and re transfer my media.

Ok clearing the cache and data for Doubletwist and media storage worked. Now to test air sync.
Sent from my LG-E970 using Tapatalk 2
Ok so doubletwist will see the music on the sd card, but the pc client won't sync to the removable sd card this is either through usb or air sync. It sees the phone, and will sync to the internal storage, but i can't tell it to use the removable storage. I'm thinking it has something to do with not being able to mount the SD card as mass storage, which i read somewhere on here is not happening with the LGOG. Any thoughts?
Hello,
I also have issues with my external sd card and double twist (but also with other media files eg photos).
Yesterday I synced 14,11GB of music to my external sd card. I was able to play all of the music for a few hours, then over 10 GB "disappeared" or are not recognized / categorized as music anymore. All I can see via double twist, es file explorer and the phone memory (under settings) are 3,67 GB of music and 12,72 GB of "other". Via es file explorer I can also only see 3,67 GB in the actual double twist music folder on the sd card. When I send my pictures directly to the sd card they also disappear after a while, which is quite annoying... I am not sure if this is the notorious kitkat issue, but is there a solution to fix this that works? I tried nextapp sdfix and changing platform.xml as suggested in various other posts by adding: <group gid="media_rw" />
Unfortunately, none of these "fixes" worked for me. Is there a solution to this yet, besides buying a windows phone or an iphone...
Thanks for your help!
Idk why Google did away with this feature. I just wanna store my game data to my sd and make it playable from there. I don't wanna swap extsd with internal I don't have big enough memory card for that. I know there are a few options but which one works for you?

Try directbinder.. or GL to SD.. or FolderMount
These apps basically transfer your data to ext SD and create virtual folders (without space!!) in internal memory to mount your app
