for those user who already rooted their phone and downloaded app2sd u can pair it with the move2sd enabler apps and it will give u permission to move/install all apps
( excluding those that needs system,pocess,widget,sync example beautiful widgets,taskiller,market,launcherpro) to the sdcard and u would never need to worry bout cramping the internal memory anymore...

this is what u'll get from that method...

internal memory
[attachmentid=2088060]

external memory
[attachmentid=2088061]

i find it very useful for us ace user since our internal memory is so low..  icon_idea.gif

I tried use the Android SDK to change the installation of APK to the phone SD. Can force app to move to SD too thumbup.gif

Why? The phone itself has no battery indicator?

Btw, is the 999 price ori price?
*
The phone has its own battery indicator but not as detailed as custom apps.

RM 999 is RP. I bought mine from Samsung fir tht price and comes with 2 years warranty from them.

Is the any way to install those apps and stuff to the memory card ?
*
Yes. u can force ur phone to transfer app to ur SD. There is 2 ways:

1) Like fuzore said, u can use app called app2sd and move2sd enabler . However this method requires root permission. (Superuser)

2) Method 2 no need any root, but u will need to install Android SDK to ur PC, and debug ur phone. Then code the phone shell to force app to sd.

I am using method 2 it works like charm. thumbup.gif

How to force App to SD on Galaxy Ace or Android Froyo 2.2+ without ROOT permission.

This method is only for Windows PC:

ALERT: "Try this with your own RISK"

1) Download Java SDK from this website and install it to your PC.

2) After finished installed the Java SDK, then download the Android SDK . exe

3) Then connect your Ace using USB cable to your PC, and enable USB debug mode.

4) Open the Android Manager that you have just installed (on step 2). Download the default API and Google USB Driver Package. (as shown in diagram 1 below)

Diagram 1:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


5) After finished installed, you should be able to see the Installed package in the Android Manager.

6) Next open your Windows "command prompt". Go to Start>Run> type CMD and press ok.

7) in command prompt type:

CODE


cd \

cd "Program Files"

cd android

cd android-sdk

cd platform-tools

adb shell

$pm setInstallLocation 2


Your command should be like shown below in diagram 2.

Diagram 2:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


8) The command $pm setInstallLocation 2 will be shown again after you entered it, this indicate that it has been successfully modified.

9) Done! Basically all newly installed app will be stored at ur SD. For app that has been installed in your Ace go to your Galaxy Ace setting > manage application>"the application">and move to SD

Attention! Widgets, Launcher should not be placed in SD, move it to ur phone memory if it is installed at your SD.

does rooting the phone make it faster than usual?

If you kill some processes that requires ROOT permission, then I would say Yes. Otherwise it would be just same.
