[Q] Rooted my android tablet...need help moving apps to SD CARD? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone im new here...
I have been at it for hours, and i have finally managed to root my tablet. Its a samsung galaxy tab 3.7.0 wifi only with 8GB of internal storage, most of which is taken up by system memory. Its model is the SM-T210. I have a few questions and i would be very grateful if you could answer them...
1) How can i move apps to my sd card?its a 16gb sandisk...i have already tried folder mount, apps 2 sd and APPMGR 111, but they are either not compatible for my device or dont work/let me install them?
2)ive rooted my tablet...now what do you reccommend i do?
Thanks everyone, in advance.

1) Give Link2SD a try, it sounds like the closest to what you want. Make sure you read its FAQ, it's not a one click solution and you'll need to setup your SD card first.
2) Why did you root if you don't know what to do?

[Q] Move apps to sd card?

I have a sony Ericsson x10 mini pro. I'm wondering if its possible to move apps to my sd card, because the phone doesn't have a big internal memory. I heard something about having to root the phone, and doing something to the sd card. Could someone guide me through that, or tell me more about it? How will that effect the apps?
Thank you x
BTW, sorry if this is in teh wrong part of the forum, i wasn't sure what section it came under
I am also trying to find out the answer to this question. All i have been able to find out through search is that one has to root the phone and there is probably just one application superone click that allows you to do that currently for X10mini/pro 2.1 version. However once one has rooted through superone click, how do you then transfer all your applications to the SD card and whether its possible or not is my question. Hoping someone answers soon so i can take the risk of rooting.
There is an app that you can get at the market to enable you to transfer apps to SD..
App2SD and Link2SD.. just search on the Market
and also search the forums for these 2 apps, there are dedicated topics for these with more detailed discussions...
I've tried both App2SD and Link2SD along with a few others... none of them install on X10mini/pro runing on v 2.1. They require some sort of partition on the SD card which i have no idea how to do.

There is no. Of videos of partition of sd card in YouTube.
I m using link2sd and I feel its better than app2sd.
.
If you use Android 1.6/2.1 then you have to use link2SD.
Use this guide for partitioning the sd card
SD Card Partitioning
Or if you have gone to the new Android 2.2/2.3 you dont need these steps, because they are integrated in the OS itself. There are some advantages running 2.2 or 2.3
Good luck
Thank you all... It worked!!!
Used link2SD and created partition on SD card as advised by Tommylee567. Transfered my apps to SD Card. Only issue i am having after the root is that Skype is giving me problems. Have to take the battery out to reset the phone and stop it from ringing continuously whenever someone calls me on skype. I didn't experience this problem before though.
Anyways atleast i got my apps transfered to SD Card.
Thanks Tommylee
I have partitioned my ad and installed link2sd. However it gives an error saying the 2nd partition not found. i have followed all the steps correctly and my mini pro is rooted. Can anyone help? Please!!!

You either need to install the Froyo update (since moving apps to the SD started as a default feature in Froyo) or root your device.

Use this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en.
root check said "congratulations this device has root access"

Great, so that means your device is rooted. Now just use this app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.buak.Link2SD&hl=en.

Use the app to transfer whichever apps you want to the new partition. Also set it to automatically link new apps to the sd partition, if that's what you want.
If you're having trouble, just Google it. There are hundreds of guides for using Link2SD, and thousands covering all kinds of ways to move apps to the sd card. Here's one to try.

[Q] How do I make my Archos "use" the SD card?

I saw a thread on this last week, before I'd rooted the tablet, and can't find it any more. Please feel free to point me if my question's already been answered!
I have an A101It, so gen 8. I've just rooted it with the '-rw' method on here. Thing is, I can still only use the SD card for file storage - can't even move apps onto it - and would really like to know how to get the system using it as extra 'internal' memory. I might possibly be looking to use it as a swap file, I'm not clear on the terminology. At the very least I should be able to install apps to it, shouldn't I?
Can you do this with the root method I've used, or should I undo that and use uruk droid instead? Has anybody posted working instructions on getting some performance advantage from an SD card? (Or shall I just fill it up with 32gb of pointless home videos that nobody will watch?)
Not sure if i can help but ill try it anyways , did u try the ''app 2 sd'' apps?
I used them when my internal storage was full so i could move my apps to my SD card so i had enough space again.
Hope this helps!

[Q] Move Apps to Usb Storage?

Hello,
Is there a way to move the apps to the usb storage instead the SD card? I ask this because i dont have an SD card but i have plenty of room on my internal memory. The system memory is 2gb but is getting full. Whenever I press the move to sd button when managing apps it says theres no sd card. I also tried app2sd with the same result. I thought that was IceCream problem but now I am on Jellybean Rom (WanamLite JB edition) and it still gives me an error.
I search forum and internet for an answer but I didn't find anything that solves the problem.
Can anyone help me please?
Thank u in advance.
If you search and didn't find anything, i don't think it's possible.

[Q] Question about titanium backup

Hello everyone I have a Hisense Sero 7 Pro 8gb with a 32gb sd card. Model number M470BSA android version 4.2.1 Build number P756.6.02.20.00 kernel 3.1.10. Today I decided to root the tablet using the following method. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2297246 and since is my first Android device that I rooted I followed this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yf0HZhrGMDU and everything worked perfectly (I suppouse)
The reason I decided to root my tablet was because I have 700mb left on my internal storage and when trying to install a 2.4gb game from the play store It said that I didnt had enough space even though i have 32gb left on my sd card. I downloaded Titanium backup to move some apps from the internal storage to the SD card but the option is not there, the only option available under move is MOVE-¨ INTGRATE UPDATES OF SYSTEM APPS INTO ROM¨ and theres no move to sd card option.
Is there an easy way to solve this? I am a noob to this so I would apreciate your help.
Thank you.
Try Link2SD. Just be sure to read the directions or find some guide on-line.

Aparted (and other apps) can partition your SD card from your phone.
BTW, Link2SD can not only move apps to SD, but newly downloaded apps can install there by default. Try that with your big game, and you might not have to mess around with moving everything else.

I made the 2 partitions and link2sd is not recognizing them and the install in SD card is not working either.
