In cyanogen mod theres a set of settings that allows you to force all apps to sd. is there an app I can install on my mcr rom that will do the same?

You can force existing installed apps to SD manually via Titanium Backup. Hold on an application and a menu pops up to allow you to move it.

If you have adb set up, you can force all future applications to install to SD card with:

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2

and restore the setting back to internal memory with:

adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0

just to renew this. Although titanium gives me the option to move all user apps over, the mod in cyanogen allows any apps to be moved including preinstalled ones already on the rom. Any idea how I can do this with a sense rom?

I downloaded version of spare parts from the XDA forum which allows you to force apps to sd (enabling the "Move to SD" option for all downloaded apps). Has worked wonders for me so far:

Not sure whether this is better than titanium's method of moving apps or not...
