Re: [android-developers] Unable to move 3rd party apps to external sd card in Samsung Galaxy S3

Hi Niggle,

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

If moving applications from internal memory works on other phones like sony,HTC and even in samsung S2, Galaxy note etc, why it is not the same in Samsung Galaxy S3.

 

Note : ICS 4.0.4 is installed in my Samsung Galaxy S3. I have checked few other mobiles like Samsung Galaxy note, Samsung Galaxy S2, Sony Xperia Ion etc  which has ICS 4.0.4 installed. In all the mentioned phones am able to move installed applications from Internal memory to external SD.

 

All i wanted to know is moving applications from internal memory is a core andriod feature or not. (if am correct this was released in Android 2.2). If it is a core android feature then why samasung doesnt provide that feature in Samsung Galaxy S3 alone.

 

Expecting your reply.

 

Thanks

Balaji.

Sorry, but this has nothing to do with Android Development.

Hi,

I recently purchased Samsung Galaxy S3. i downloaded games and apps from play store and when i tried to move it to my external sd card. Am unable to move any of my 3rd party applications from phone memory to external sd. I have checked the application apk file and the install location is set as auto, still am not able to move.

 

I have contacted samsung customer support and they updated me that moving apps to external sd card is an additional feature provided by samsung and the same is not provided to Samsung Galaxy S3. I just wanted to confirm that it is a core android feature?

 

Thanks
Balaji.
