Cant move apps to SD card

whats up everyone,

i am having a weird issue with my evo 3d. ever since that last update ( a few weeks ago) i cant move some apps to sd card. i have tried to re-set the phone, un-install and re-install apps, but its still not working properly. for example, the htc flash light app, before the update it took up 48kb of space on my phone, now since i cant move it to sd card, it takes up 1.06mb. does anyone know how to fix this issue?
thanx

titanium wont work because its asking me for root, which i dont have.

well if your not rooted. of course you cant move them all. you have to be rooted to move anyone you want.

well as my ppcgeeker above me said. your pretty much stuck. only way to do it is root. its really not a hard thing to accomplish. as long as your boot loader 1.30 or 1.40 its a easy task that is reversible.
