Help How to copy all files from phone memory to SD Card?

How to copy all files from phone memory to SD Card?

OK I figured it out. Go to -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications ->

Now you can select on the top "Downloaded" or "All" - I think All will just show you a bunch of shit you can't move. I think only downloaded applications can be moved but even some of those can't. For example facebook wouldn't move (wtf?)

From this screen click on an application and you will have the option to move it to SD or from SD card to phone.

Anybody know why some downloaded apps can't be moved like Facebook and 8tracks?

You have to root your phone in order to move most apps to the SD card. However moving widget to the SD Card could cause problems......:( (After root you can find apps from Google play like Super App2SD that move almost everything to the SD Card. With these apps you can do the reverse, too!!!)

I don't know why you need root but I've done it and freed my phone memory!

Please consider answering my thread, too!!!!!! (http://androidforums.com/samsung-ga...dervolt-underclock-dangerous.html#post4471739)
