Root [TMobile] [MOD]App2External_SD (Fixed Duplicate files)

Hello everyone,

No more duplicates! Everything is fixed! =)

I had to modify the script again.
Re-download 11extsd2internalsd
Start with step 7 if you already have this installed.

I finally found a way to store app data to the external SD Card!
This MOD is based off of the Galaxy S3 and I modified it to work with our LG Optimus F6 devices!
Make sure your phone is Rooted!
1) Download Uni-init v1.0.apk

2) Install like a regular apk and open it

3) Click on Activate and allow with super user

4) Click on Verify to make sure init.d is enabled

5) Reboot your device

6) Download any Root Browser you like from the play store

7) Download 11extsd2internalsd and copy it to your sd card

8) Open Root Browser and copy 11extsd2internalsd and paste it /system/etc/init.d folder

9) Hold click 11extsd2internalsd and set permissions and make sure everything is checked as far as Read, Write, and Execute

10) Download Smanager from the google play store and open and allow with root access

11) Go to /system/etc/init.d and click on 11extsd2internalsd

12) Click at the top where it has Su and Boot and hit save and then exit

13) Reboot your device and your all done!
To remove the mod simply delete /system/etc/init.d/11extsd2internalsd and reboot your device.
Optional:
You can delete Uni-init app after your done with everything. It is no longer needed!

Looks like the partition has the same block number as the F6:
/dev/block/vold/179:33 /storage/external_SD vfat
It should work without any problems. Make sure you do a backup first and then try this out. Let me know if it works.

You need to back up your apps. Then do a factory reset to clear everything. Move everything from your internal sd to your external sd and delete or format internal sd. Then reinstall your apps after you factory reset cause the old data needs to be on the external sd.

Question?
I tried this out on my wife's f6 everything looked liked it worked. It said my internal memory was 32 gigs but when I tried to download anything it said insufficient memory. Any ideas as to why it would do this?

Hello everyone,

Re-download 11extsd2internalsd
Start with step 7 if you already have this installed.


Well, I am a bit confused. Will this swap the sd card and the internal memory? Or is it just another app2sd that "partially" moves the installed data to sd card?

I keep getting insufficient memory, any help?

Then you probably did something wrong.

hi I'm rather new to "rooting" I rooted my lg optimus f6 yesterday using kingo root it seemed to work fine but I have no idea how to do a clockwork mod recovery i would like to partition my sd card but would rather do app2external sd instead because it seems easier? but after trying several times to install the apk you provided it kept saying "super user access denied" I really want to be able to play more games on the phone etc but the internal memory won't allow me to download what I want :( also I'm not really sure what i am doing and do not want to mess anything up

Check if you are actually rooted first. I think in the google play, there is an app called root checker. If it fails, you may not have a super user installed. Download it also from the.google play. Then give it another go and of all is right, a pop up box will ask wether you want to allow access only this time, all times, and deny access or so. Check all the time and there, the root checker should say you are rooted. If nothing comes out even doing these steps, it means youbprobably have done something wrng during the rooting process.
