Default External SD card..

How do I install apps on my external SD card... it seems everything that is going to "SD" card is going to the internal space. I am Not rooted. Any help would be awesome

Well what you waiting for? It is super easy(USE NVFLASH!!) and will help you sleep better at night. Just do baby steps. Root... see how you like it, then after a while try out a custom rom...

I was thought about waiting till the update came down as well. Then I figured "hell, there are issues with the stock roms, why not try and find something more stable." The irony of it all was that my stock was pretty solid... I was just looking for the push off the wagon(recovering crack flasher from the g1). You won't be disappointed.

USE NVFLASH!!!!! I can't stress that enough. Everyday there is a new crop of "help bootloop" threads. Totally avoidable.

APP2SD is free on the market. It wont move everything to the external sd but it will move a lot and more is added all the time.
