Would like to list these apps seeing as there doesn't seem to be an easy way on the phone to figure it out. (other than going to each app and checking if it's enabled).

So far if I look at the "On SD card" section of the application manager the only 3 I've found that could be moved are:
Air Control Lite
Jewels
Retro Camera
 
Just use legacy A2SD (A2SD+). Then it takes care of everything and you don't need to worry about anything again... Here is my list of Apps/Games, and still, here is my storage info:

Total Space: 6.93GB
Free Space: 6.06GB

Internal phone storage
Available Space: 129MB

The internal storage space was 140MB after the full wipe and ROM install.

Or use SD Move, it indicates the apps in colors that can be moved to external.

Thanks nadimm. That pretty much negates the need for this thread... Unfortunately it didn't find anything more than what I'd already found/moved.

Need root for that cyb3rt... ie. the 0.92->0.80 downgrade + root/custom rom.
 
can A2SD (A2SD+) move any app to sd?
i find that most apps are not yet updated for move to sd.which is sad, this morning i got a msg saying low space
where do i check the amount of space left on phone memory?
 
From what I understand you can put any app on SD but if you have an app with a widget and mount the sdcard from your pc (pluggin in via usb with the "disk drive" option) then your phone obviously loses the connection to the sd and your widget breaks.
 
The native A2SD+ works different (there is a big explanation behind how it actually works). It does not 'break' the widgets like described above, it will still work. Because you need to create the EXT partition on the SD for it to work, that space you allocate to it will always be available, even if you plug the phone into the PC.

The normal froyo A2SD, just moves everything over to the SD card and you get problems because of this. So in effect, yes, it can move any app, as you go mad and install apps A2SD+ works in the background and does its thing, so you won't even notice. I am running 50 odd apps/games, and I haven't even made a dent in the internal storage, and I never had to select where to install anything...
