Some of my apps use the internal storage /mnt/sdcard and do not seem to have an option to change that path. However, the internal storage is not large enough for data-intensive apps like Mapdroyd and Wikidroyd. Is there any way to have that shifted to the SD card? I know I could create a symlink in a terminal session but I would like to avoid rooting the device for security reasons.</P><P></P><P>I have seen a few similar discussions on this site, but none that helped me.</P><P></P><P>Best,</P><P>Marcus</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 31 May 2013 08:13:52 GMT https://community.sony.dk/t5/other-general/moving-content-from-internal-mem-to-sd-card-no-root/m-p/3066737#M41736 ubedoble 2013-05-31T08:13:52Z Re: Moving content from internal mem to SD-card/no root https://community.sony.dk/t5/other-general/moving-content-from-internal-mem-to-sd-card-no-root/m-p/3066738#M41737 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>you can not move apps nor games to your SD card. </P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 31 May 2013 08:20:03 GMT https://community.sony.dk/t5/other-general/moving-content-from-internal-mem-to-sd-card-no-root/m-p/3066738#M41737 Uliwooly 2013-05-31T08:20:03Z Re: Moving content from internal mem to SD-card/no root https://community.sony.dk/t5/other-general/moving-content-from-internal-mem-to-sd-card-no-root/m-p/3066739#M41738 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Sorry for not being clear on this.

Sony should consider offering a system tool that moves the content and sets the symlink. That sounds like a feasable job to me, and it would certainly help of number of people. After all, MP3 and video are not the only storage-intensive types of data.</P><P></P><P>[Edit] Just noticed that Wikidroyd was last updated in 2011 and the wikidroyd.com site is down, so there's little hope this will be solved on app level. I guess this emphasizes my point to find an OS-level solution</P><P></P><P>Best,</P><P>Marcus</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 31 May 2013 09:36:10 GMT https://community.sony.dk/t5/other-general/moving-content-from-internal-mem-to-sd-card-no-root/m-p/3066741#M41740 ubedoble 2013-05-31T09:36:10Z
