Hi there. Well, the title says it all. I have my deviced rooted, i've followed the steps from here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/themes-apps/tool-directorybind-data-to-externalsd-t1410262 and here http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/general/guide-how-to-directory-bind-galaxy-s3-t1889550 (yes i know it's a different model but the directories are pretty much the same), and even though i have it rooted, and i'm able to create bindings, they don't seem to work. For games like "Injustice: Gods among us" and Asphalt 8" that are installed on the "/sdcard/AndroidObb" folder, i've binded them to "/mnt/extSdCard/Android/obb" folder, moved the files to the new folder and still when i start the game it insists to download the game, which tells me that the binding isn't working...

Any ideia? I'm lost at this point :(

No one? :(

Well i had to try other ways, and got away with FolderMount and Link2SD. Foldermount is used to do a similar work of DirectoryBind and Link2SD to move apps and their cache files to the external sd card.

From what i've read there were more people with the exact same symptoms i had with DirectoryBind and Obb folder files, the game would insist to redownload the Obb files even with DirectoryBind properly set.

Still, thanks anyway.
