Yeah, i ended up installing the O version, looks like its the latest release. It's much more stable and has the persistent service option.. The K version randomly crashes in my note 2 and does not have the persistent service.. He referred to it as the "sticky" in his changelog..

I agree,i've seen file releases with descending order like his is but that usually has some sort of distinguishing alphabet or numeric..plus date of release so as to a avoid confusion because each dev is different..

Well that fooled me at least .. Haha! Im a dev and i got confused.. Plus there's no clear starting alphabet.. He should have started with A or Z plus a release date to avoid confusion.. But at the end of the day, im thankful that he created this app.. Very helpful! :D

thanks the developer for this wonderful app...

most of the games work perfect except SHADOW GUN.

I transfer the files to microsd but the icon goes red....not green like others...

is there any way to solve this problem ???

thanks in advance....

Did you try to remove the binding, put file in the original directory and test again ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 911-Future_Maker:

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] bodomar:
OK SOLVED !!! NOW WORKS GREAT !!

cut data file from internal memory through es file explorer and pasted to the ext. card

then added to directory bind....

now everything is great :)

you just navigate folders...(select target and source)

but you dont check transfer files !!

then click add....

in other words you tell the program bind the folders not transfer the files....

thats it

Can't get a script to mount a particular folder on the external sdcard of the s3 to the internal sdcard.

The command I'm issuing is.

mount -o bind "/extSdCard/Android/data/com.ea.game.fifa12_na/" "/sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.game.fifa12_na/"

Running 4.2.1 on CM10.1 o the S3.

Can anyone help ?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Mk.Xal:
maybe try : mount -o bind "/mnt/extSdCard/Android/data/com.ea.game.fifa12_na/" "/mnt/sdcard/Android/data/com.ea.game.fifa12_na/"

Nope still the same outcome.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Mk.Xal:
I don't have a S3 but if I am correct try :

mount -o bind "/mnt/ext......" /sdcard/....."

and be sure that "/sdcard/...." is an empty folder.

What error exactly it's trowing?
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] StephenC82:
Doesn't show any error. Looks like it is binding them but games still ask for data to be downloaded.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Mk.Xal:
Try the following :

- Backup game data

- Remove both folders on internal and external sd card

- Recreate folder on internal and put data back

- Try the game and close it

- Copy data and put it on another place

- Create the binding

- Test the binding (create manually a file on the older on external and check if the file is displayed when you browser to the folder in internal storage)

- If works, copy game data to external

Cannot test this for you unfortunately.

Most of them are stored in data/data path in your root directory. You can't move these apks with DB. I'm using Link2sd that move apps to my external sd's 2nd partition when I'm running out of internal memory space.

I just tried DirectoryBind for the first time yesterday on my S3 running 4.1.2

I used it to move, then link back from /sdcard/Android/data/com.spotify.mobile.ui/ to /storage/extSdCard/Spotify

The phone is rooted,I was able to create the link ok & files were correctly copied.The link appeared in the list and was active. spotify worked using files at the new location

However upon reboot the link entry no longer appears in directory bind's list, and in fact the link has been lost -- ie it's not persistent.

Any ideas?

Wish the OP was still around if only to add that you need to use the alternative database setting whenever it seems the settings don't work on a reboot.

Can you post a titanium backup or post your .CSV from a backup database from the app its located in the root of your SD card.

I think titanium backup can't see any binding.. But check the DB configuration, hope it will help.

Looking at that nothing strange sticks out. I'm thinking maybe it's a Rom or kernel setting you have? Is it the same on stock? Going to try slim bean on the s3 tomorrow. See if that helps.

[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Mk.Xal:
I have never tested this on stock rom but I will test with stock slim kernel (cm10 kernel) and keep you in touch.

Edit : it works well with stock kernel so I think it works because of the rom (based in aosp)

Edit 2 : Did you try to bind a game folder to another folder on the same storage ? Just for testing, maybe it come from the sdcard

No idea too, maybe it come from the device but rom are the same... strange !

I know some people having i9300 but none of them want to root their device so I can't do any test with SIII :(
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 911-Future_Maker:
There is no reason to not work in Slim Bean, as far as something is cutted from the rom features..

you have to expected that earlier, that why it's "slim" it's just ~90mb rom lol!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] Munemasa:
Ty, I guess Directory Bind is more what I need.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] IIIIIChrisIIIII:
Hi,

i've just bought the GT-I9300 and wanted for security reasons to move my mails to a brand new 64gb micro sd card, which i would fully encrypt with android stock functionality. First i hoped to have the possibility to set up the destination (internal or external storage) inside the default mail app. But there is not such an option inside the app. Then i hoped to be able to move the whole app over the app manager to the external storage. That isn't possible too. So i've just found DirectoryBind, which could solve my problem.

After some researches i found that the mails are stored in "data/data/com.android.email/databases". So my first thought is to copy all the data of this (perhaps even of the complete com.android.email) folder to the sd-card and mount that path in "data/data" under the same name.

Before i do this and perhaps crash my system, i better ask if somebody has arguments against my plan.

Do i have to expect some problems because of the encrypted sd-card? Or are there known issues with DirectoryBind and the default mail app?:confused:

My device has still stock rom (4.1.2) but i've already rooted it.

Thanks!

So i've followed this thread and this thread's instructions to a tee and cannot get this to work properly. I download the data for the apps first, kill the apps, set up my folders in Directory Bind, reboot just to make sure, wait for SU prompt, run the apps, but they still download the same files again to their original location. I even tried Asphalt 7 and the game just crashes back to my homescreen.

Everything looks fine in DB but I can't figure why it won't work. Can anyone help? This is what my setup looks like.

Well, just to clear the things out: you download the game data, bind folders and transfer the files to external sd right?

Can you try to bind the folders first, before download the game data and see what's happen? Also I suggest you to use some custom folder name different from DirectoryBind. I always bind directly the two folders and it works like a charm.

Example:

S: storage/sdcard1/gameloft

T: sdcard/gameloft

it doesnt work for my p3110 with CM 10.1 . i've done all process and it the "Binded" sign already green , my game data transferred well into my extsdcard but when i start the game , it start to download again and its downloaded into my internal instead external .

its shows no error ( i followed everything instructed in the first page ) but its not working :( . is it due to compability with CM 10.1 ? any help would be appreciated

Hi,

Is it possible to bind the whatsapp images folder? I tried to do it but when I click on the disk Icon it's red, although the files got transferred successfully...what could be the problem here??

Edit: Nevermind I found the solution on page 157 :)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] HippoMan:
No, you would not need 1.30 gb in internal memory.

What this app does is to perform a mount of the external directory over a pathname on the internal drive. Essentially, this just sets up a mapping on the internal drive which points to the external data.

The main purpose of DirectoryBind is to set up these kinds of mappings, so that you don't have to copy huge amounts of data from the external drive to the internal drive.

I've tried doing what you've mentioned and it still downloads the data to the phone's internal memory. Restoring to my stock rooted 4.1.1 to try it out DB worked perfectly there.

Android file

All my games show up under a 'Android' folder on the internal memory. Is it safe to bind this entire folder? I am a newbie but it seems that it is just game and app data. Any help is very appreciated! Thanks!
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 911-Future_Maker:
Nice to hear some good news today. ;P

It seems it was definitely your rom issue, if you want custom rom with working DB checkout the one in my sig. :)

Hi dude, yes it completely safe....if you just do the things right. ;P

That Android folder on internal sd is the place where all your games(and apps) are storing their data.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] jshx2:
Thanks for the help. For some reason it shows that the game info has been copied over but when I go in the game and it asks me to download more data that should already be in the transferred file. Clearly the directories were not bound is there something I'm missing? I froze any app killer and can't figure it out.

Have you tried checking the box "alternate dbase management" in preferences?

This worked for me, I'm on CM10.1 on the i717

---------- Post added at 04:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 AM ----------

This is also where system apps like messaging are stored too right? I thought some people complained of some apps working some not after doing this?

The reason for my concern is a have a G Note and a 64gb SD card formatted as NTFS, so I have to use NTFS+ to mount it at boot, but the program scans the whole card which takes a couple minutes at boot (longer if it is a random reboot) so would my phone wig out at boot if the card hadn't been mounted, and would the card even mount if the NTFS app is located on the SD card?

Please, if somebody could share the config and bind paths would be great (ON CM10.1)
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] 911-Future_Maker:
No mate, sms and mms are located in your phone's root directory, the exact path is:

data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db

it's hidden by default, you must have root and enable 'show hidden files' in some file explorer to access it.

So no worries about your sd card, but why formatting to ntfs, I can't see any preferences to do that, not only that, but you have to use an app just to mount it at boot. I really sugggest you to use the fat32 format.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] egingell:
It's actually not hidden. Files and folders are hidden in *Nix by prefixing the file name with a dot. There is no "hidden" attribute like in Windows.
[Galaxy S II Themes and Apps] LuckyStrike88:
GNote can't use ExFAT and FAT32 is limited to 4gb transfer size.

I may end up reformatting to FAT32 and dealing with the 4gb barrier, just to be able to do this. 16gb is appallingly small.
