Installing Apps on SD

If you have A2SD2 all apps go to sd card.

Seems like the same question so I have the same answer. The only way to stop them from going to card is to remove Ext2 partition.

I think you misunderstood my questions. The fresh rom supposedly has apps2sd by default correct?

So I have my card installed, only fat32. I install 30 apps. At that point, I do the format on the card because i want to start using the SD card. Obviously the existing Apps are still installed on the phone.

Now since apps2sd is on the rom by default, after formating the card, i would assume the following:

1. That future apps would install to the card. How would I verify this?
2. That if I uninstall, and reinstall an app, that would go to the SD card. Is this true?

All apps will install on the SD card if you partitioned it to be Fat32, Ext2. What this means is there are 2 storage cards(the phone thinks) One for apps and one "you can use". You can use your SD card whether you format it or not.

If you partition the card Fat32, Ext2 then all your apps will be on the SD card. You don't have to uninstall and reinstall it, they will move from the phone and go there. Look in my tips thread, there is a link there that tells how to see if your apps moved to the SD card.
