@taharaza
If I face problem in rooting, then I use old/outdated firmwares, as their rooting success rate is 80%+. Latest updates fix their exploits and bugs that help to gain root access, this is why some root methods do not work now.

Root methods were tested on software version F320L/S/K. 20, not on 21.

Yes, you are absolutely right.
I have done the same few times when the latest firmware wasn't found stable

Now how do I transfer apps to sd card?

axe.effect (axe.effect) 2014-10-30 17:33:08 +0500 #148

Just search for term 'sd' in your app store. There are several apps for that. Did anyone of the following link work?

Link2sd and app manager III etc.

I used the first link to download and configure adb then i used ioroot method and it worked. Thanks

I cannot move apps using the above links which just redirects to the individual storage section of the apps where previously jellybean had the option to move to sd card. I also tried using sd card fix and link2sd which require me to create a partition on my sd card. Titanium backup also has this issue. Then i installed partition manager but was unable to create a partition due to an error which said "unable to create overlapping partitions." Now what do I do?

TahaRaza (TahaRaza) 2014-11-01 05:20:19 +0500 #153

Anyone?

I tested these apps on HTC Explorer and few Qmobiles, it works (on user installed apps only), as those phones have very less internal memory. App manager 3 is easier to use, but link2sd is preferred.

Link2sd screenshot I am sending. Did you follow the same?. These apps do automatically what they want, to move app to SD. No need to install any other partition app.

Thank you for the screen shots

I am getting this error:

TahaRaza (TahaRaza) 2014-11-01 10:21:47 +0500 #157

The link option will only work if i make a second partition in sd card

To take screenshots,

For samsung
Press and hold 'power and home' button simultaneously.

For other androids
Press and hold 'power and volume down' button simultaneously.

I used partitioning on low end phones to increase ram and app2sd or link2sd, but as a temporary fix. It's a risky data loss procedure on some phones, as partitioning wipes data. Some phones allowed app2sd without partitioning. Your phone does not support it. So don't go ahead.

To get free space, delete unnecessary preinstalled apps using app master.

Note: Sd card is slower by the way, unless you have a Class 10 or high speed SD card. In past, I transferred apps (created a link) on Sd card and they caused some lagging.

Try app manager 3. If that requires partitioning too, forget this app2sd thing then.
