[Honor 7 General] cycovision:
Guide (Root): App2SD

Notice: This is my first guide so feel free and I am not responsible for any damage caused. Also I am not involved in development of this app!

This guide is tested on my honor 7 running wbt 5.0 rom

As we all know the honor7 and all the other honor devices running Android 6.0 do not support storage adoption at the moment.

There are ways to enable it via adb but as I experienced the method is a bit wonky and not really reliable. See the guide created by paulobrien, whom I wana thank at this point for his contribution to all sorts of android related topics and especially for his efforts on honor.

So I´ve decided to write a quick guide on how to circuit this problem by using an app called apps2sd which can be downloaded from the google play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.co.pricealert.apps2sd&hl=en

I am using this method for a week straight now and no problems occured by now.

What you need:

•	A rooted Honor device, usb debugging activated (the guide should be applieable to more devices, but I only tested it on my honor7)

•	A micro sd card

•	Apps2sd (make sure to exclude it form automatic task killer in battery settings)

•	A tool called mini tool partition wizard: https://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-manager.html

•	A micro sd reader

First step:

•	Plug your micro sd card into your computer and start mini tool partition wizard

•	Notice: Back up all your Data first, also a total backup of all your apps and system is recommended

•	Select your micro sd card in partition tool, right click and select remove. ATTENTION: All your data will be lost at this point

•	Now you have unallocated disk space on your card, right click it and select create

•	In this menu you are able to select the disk size of your first partition, which will be your ordinary sd card shown in your file explorer (I am using a SanDisk 128 gb micro sd card and decided to split it half/half). Select your preferred file system (normally fat32) and set it as primary partition on “create as” and hit okay

•	Right click the left unallocated space and hit create. The tool will now tell you that windows will be unable to access the 2nd partition, but since the partition is not intended to be used with it we can ignore this message.

•	Important: the 2nd partition also needs to be created as primary partition, as for the file system I used ext4, after you have done all this hit okay

•	After you have completed all these steps hit apply in the top left corner, the new partitions will now be created, this can take a while

•	After the creation is completed safely remove the card and reinsert it into your device

•	Install apps2sd from google play and start it

•	On first start you have to select “link apps to sdcard”

•	A dialog will pop up where you have to specify your 2nd patition, in my case the path was correct so I suppose it should be on all honor devices, select ext4 as file format, since my rom is using super su higher than 2.2 I have also checked this option and hit okay to create the mount script (other methods are not tested at this point)

•	Now you are able to move all desired apps to your sd card by ticking it and select “link” in the bottom right corner

•	Select all the attributes you want to move and hit okay

•	You can also activate autolink in settings, so all your newly installed apps will be linked to your sd card automatically

I hope this guide is helpful for some of you guys and I will do my best to keep this thread active.
