Guest stufq Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 What do you mean by disappear? Do you mean vanish entirely? Are you using apps2sd? Zeb No i use android app manager and simply use move to sd. Operation is always succesful but after bot application are not there, data is the (in internal memory). I just wandering if my brand new 32gb card is the cause.

Some of the cheap ripoff ones show up as 32GB but have less storage and dump off old files when you copy new ones on. Where did you get it from and what did you pay?

Operation is always succesful but after bot application are not there, data is the (in internal memory). I just wandering if my brand new 32gb card is the cause. By internal data, you mean /data/data/<appname> ? Basically, the app is made up of the actual application which is in /data/app/<appname>.apk and the related data /data/data/<appname>/* What exactly does the moving app do? Does it try to move /data/app or /data/data to the SD card? The only way an app could disappear is if /sdcard/.android_secure/ and possibly the /sdcard/Android/ directories don't contain what they should (Or the app has been removed from /data/app/ - as far as I'm aware no app moving does this. But I'm not sure). In summary, providing the app is in /data/app and/or the data in /sdcard/.android_secure /sdcard/Android is consistent, the app should be there. If these directories are not as they should be, then that would be why your app isn't working. It shouldn't be an SD card problem. You'd get a corrupt sd card notification if the android data there wasn't correct, so it must be ok. In order to try and diagnose further, we really need to know what exactly the app tries to move.
