Forcing apps to install/download on SD I have a HTC Desire, which has a limited space in the phone. Therefore I want to make all apps install to the SD card by default.

However, I can't make it work. I have tried the pm set-install-location 2 command, and I can also confirm that it is set to 2, but I still can't download apps that takes more space than available.

I have it rooted, and installed 4.1.2 on it.
This will only allow you to install apps automatically onto the SD card if:


They have set the app to install onto the SD card 'Auto'
They allow you to install onto the SD card


Most likely, the app(s) you are trying to download does not have an auto setting for SD card install, and it cannot be installed onto the SD card.
