Are you using the 0.2.0.o version??

I have the latest Omega JB on i9300 and this directorybind is working perfectly..

If the "Alternate dbase" is checked and the entries are still disappearing after boot. Try to uncheck the "Handle USB connection" option.

edit: you might also want to backup database after re-entering the bindings.. so if you lose it again, you can simply restore them :)

edit2: BTW, A BIG FAT THANK YOU slig for this app!!! You are making our devices so much better with this! :)

Stupid google for not letting us to put these big apps on our BIG microSDcards! Shame on you!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rodpalma:
I'm using the O version ..

I've already done both things you suggested .. my binds are still disappearing after reboot ...
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dollardollar:
Yeah after browsing through all the pages, I figured out that I have to check alternate dbase and uncheck handle USB connection. But before all that I had binded my two big games to it. and cannot figure how get their listing back. Although the games work perfectly without listing being shown.

Now after doing all that checking and unchecking, I had binded my asphalt 7 and it works perfectly with listing being shown even after restart.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] smoke2:
How can I properly uninstall the game from phone which is binded through Directory Bind?

First I must to disable entry in Directory Bind and then normally uninstall game?

Can you write me process in steps?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dollardollar:
Ok, now first disable the entry by clicking on the green disk icon and when it turns grey. click and hold on the entry.

it will open with data & target paths, below there will be delete and save buttons. Click on delete and small window pops up with two options like in screenshot. Transfer data files back and delete directories and data files. Click as you wish. If you wanted to delete the game completely, click on second option or if you wanted to remove the bind, click on first option.

Hi,

I wanted to use directorybind on mk802 dongle. Its running ICS ver4.0.4.

When I try to setup the symlink, the app prompt to create directory for the source but it fail and cannot proceed.

Did anybody face this problem and what can I do to resolve this problem?

The platform.xml file already has the permission for media_rw.

what if my externalSD is also full?

or maybe for some reason I really need to remove my externalSD ?

can I remove my SDcard?

and if it is possible, if I did remove it safely, will those app binded with the extSD will not be shown temporarily (while the SDcard is removed)?

or will my phone crash because too many missing file?

Can I have 2 EXTERNALSD card, one is for about 10 app and another one is for the rest of my app and gallery?

thankss!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dollardollar:
Wow wow, to many questions you have got there.

after reading all the posts, I got to know that you can't remove Sdcard without removing the bindings, if you have to remove, you have to switch off the phone and do that.

No the phone won't crash, not if you are not binding any important app.

I mostly use for high data games, so that won't effect of sdcard being removed.

And finally having 2 sdcards? May be that may work. Try and see, it won't hurt.

This is the best app, I have got. Really makes me free from worrying about internal memory being full
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] theunborn:
a bit of explaination please?

Hi guys,

and thanks to dollardollar for quick response.

now I think I'm ready to use this for my note 2! since jellybean wont let me move anything to SDcard besides Pictures.

I am a noob here, I only understand not so much about the android, can someone explain it to me what entry means?

and by this function : * DirectoryBind can tell what application is using this entry (tap at entry in use)

does it mean that entry can only filled with one application? is it some kind of a temp memory?

and also from what I have read, this app is able to do the auto mount on boot.... will it affects my booting time?

thankss!!!

What App To Check Sizes

What apps do you all use to find your big directories and then check their bindings after you have moved directory.

I am on Jelly Bean.

Do you all trust the size/space numbers you see in the system settings?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] spoogedemon:
Awesome App!

You should offer this in PlayStore.

I'd pay nearly anything for it.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] petesuen:
This app is simply awesome. Thanks.

For me things like game data and maps are now stored on external SD.

Stuff like music/photos probably no need to bind. It might even show up twice in my music players/galleries.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] nawman:
Hi guys,

awesome job you're doing here! slig and all others developers...

I have a new Galaxy GT-S7562 Duos; I am trying to use the DB, but the phrase is wrong, somehow...

I am not a good programmer, so I only can tell you that the paths are not working: the phone has an internal /sdcard, and the SD Card is /extSdCard.

Could you please help me, please? I put two cold beers Pils or Dark on the table right away... (virtually...)

Many thanks anyway
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] wonderrx:
So I have DB working on a few programs (photo cashe, comics).

I tried to DB a gameloft file from the /android/obb directory. It's s large 1.5gb. It built and moved fine and shows up in the list but I get nothing but the red icon from it.

Not sure what this means.

Anyone have any suggestions or things I can try?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] programatix:
You could change the default data path in Preferences. Enter "/mnt/extSdCard/" for it. Else, when adding new bind, just tap and hold the data path and tap the "Up" button until "/". Look for "mnt" and followed by "extSdCard".

It happens sometimes to me too. Just edit the bind and tap and hold either the data or target path (or both) and re-select it. It would then bind properly. Not sure why.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] RakeshRaja:

bind on mount?

I use this tool for almost everything on my nexus 7 (USB otg). I now there is a bind on boot option, but what about "bind on mount"? I know its not really a problem, but I have to reopen directory bind then deactivate/activate each link every time I plug in my flash drive.

Am I making it harder then it needs to be or is there a better way out there?

Thanks people for responding!!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] overground:
No fix necessary, you can change the paths already.

I have no problems entering a /mnt/extSdCard/ path.

Hi,

Are there any restrictions on how many dirs can be linked ?

I'm "ticking" the new ones, and the older ones get "unticked".

Can the maximum link value be set to a higher value ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] dollardollar:
What is the maximum your are talking of, I have 12 binded dir's with me and that would keep all my big games away from sdcard memory. :D
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] szafran81:
12 :D ? Hmmm... I have 37 total, out of which 5 are automatically turned off - so I would say that the limit is 32. So you're not even close to what I have.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] theunborn:
please someone explain to me... what is entry?

is it some kind of a temporary folder?

and is it can only filled with one app?

why do we need to clear the entry?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] danarama:
What are you talking about? If you read the word "entry" somewhere, please quote it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rferrett:
Sorry to come on a thread and be a super n00b. I have tried searching for the answer but couldn't find it so many apologies in advance if this has already been answered.

I am trying to use Directory Bind to save Google music files to my external SD card. Running a S3 on jellybean (modified stock).

After a hugely frustrating (near phone smashing ;) time) I have finally discovered where Music was storing its cache a directory starting data/data/com.google.android.music/cache/music

I thought when I finally discovered this I was home and dry. Alas directory bind does not recognise it. And when I use the graphical view it finds this folder is empty. It deffo has the files in and all my root enbabled file explorers can see the stuff but not directory bind.

I am tearing my hair out as I suspect it is some obvious simple little thing I am overlooking (as is always the case)

Any how oculd any of the significantly smarter, wiser, android types round here help me out?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] danarama:
This app is to link /sdcard/stuff to /extSdCard/stuff

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] programatix:
It works fine here.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rferrett:
Oh no!

So that means as things stand it is not possible to have Google Music cache on an S3 stored anywhere other than internal memory? That bites... Why do Google hate external storage so. It make G-Music unusable for me as I do not have the space.

Boo
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] rferrett:
So out of interest do you think moving to a Cyanogen rom might help? They have different naming conventions to stock Samsung roms right?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tommo123:
how? is it the "o" version you're running from OP?

i browsed to sd card > android> obb> dead trigger

and then to my ext sd card (but had to go via storage>extsd etc.

what does your path look like for source and destination?

Can't see the entries after reboot though the data is there where i moved it only the entries arnt shown in the app, also i am not able to install any apk even after clicking unbind all, not sure what is wrong !!

btw what happens if i uninstall it ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] codington:
You need to save the database once before you reboot. Bindings will stick and show after that. You will need to move data back before uninstalling - there is an option for that when you try to delete a bind - otherwise, you will not have data where the app expects. Not sure why you can't install apk files. What error are you seeing?

Thank you for this magnificent tool, I just received my new 64 gb card and used directory bind to move game data to the external sd without any problems.

It works as good as similar type utilities work on my desktop pc to move games from my hdd to ssd for faster leading times.

I also confirm that it rebinds directories without issue upon reboot on my note II.

galaxy note 2 phone

Hello I bought thenew phone Galaxy Note II, it already contains root and derectory Bind, although i cannt transfer the aplications to the sd card definetly. when i try to transfer the aplications, they become duplicated one copy of the application on the SD card and another on the internal memory of the phone. when i atempt to delete the apk from the internal memory not to ocupy space, the application on the SD card also disapears. Can somebody please help me with this issue?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] darkaniu:
the problem is, after transfering the aplication to the memory card, the aplication continues to appear on the bar of the internal memory and on the internal applications, but teh free internal memory is altered, as if teh aplication is not on the internal memory. My doubt is if the internal memory bar will become all full, will the phone accept installing more applications, due to the fact that the available memory says that it still contains some free space. i am adding the images taken from my phone before and after moving the game (shadow gun) with directory bind to the SD card, my phone is Galaxy Note II (jelly bean).

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Angry Black Man:
seems counterintuitive...

i'm assuming that at this point, the developer has abandoned this project, right? the last update was nearly a year ago (jan 2012)?

can anyone please confirm/deny my following observations:

the TARGET is actually the folder with the (offending/large) files that you want MOVED TO ANOTHER LOCATION

the SOURCE is where you want your (offending/large) files to BE MOVED TO (conceivably so that they don't clutter your internal memory)

newly created binds are NOT automatically enabled (the icon remains gray instead of turning green)

by default, this program will not automatically set the binds on boot. (this doesn't seem to make any sense; why else would i create binds if i didnt want them to be persistent!?)

even thought "/mnt/sdcard/" is the same as "/sdcard/", this program will tell you that "/mnt/sdcard/*" paths are invalid?

paths with spaces in them will not mount.

if a mount fails, the logger will not give you a specific error message to indicate WHY the mount failed (it will only tell you that the mount failed, which you already know from the red icon, which makes the logging message in this case COMPLETELY STUPIDLY USELESS)

even if the mount described in #7 fails (for instance, because of a space in the target's name), the target will still be created AND the files will still be moved to the target
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tommo123:
i think the source is where you want the data TO GO and the target is the SOURCE

doing it that way is the only way i've not had any errors! bizarre!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Angry Black Man:
so are you confirming or denying, and which bullet point(s) are you referring to?

any other input? i have many bullet points i'm trying to figure out... for instance, im getting greifed by the fact that TuneIn Radio saves recorded radio to its default folder "TuneIn Radio" (yes there's a space in there by default) which is in the SDCARD directory on internal memory. i'd DEFINITLY like to redirect these files to my SD card, but i get mount issues because the TARGET has a space in it.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tommo123:
you have to do it the backwards way.

i wanted to move the cache from "pictures" on the internal storage to my mSD card

the "source" in this app is therefore external storage>pictures and the "destination" is the internal storage.

it's bizarre and i can't imagine how anyone would get this to work on their own as it's totally unintuitive but it works. i also ticked the option to move data of course.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Angry Black Man:
Can you confirm/deny any of my other observations?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] tommo123:
