Hi!
On Honeycomb & ICS , you can not install app on sdcard !
Hi, 1st time poster here - just got my Archos 80 G9 Classic (8GB, 1GHz) this week & by following all the instructions on this forum, I was able to root my tablet successfully to ICS 4.0.6 (much thanks to surdu_petru, Shano56, & all other experts in various threads).
Although I'm no tech wizard, I just want to contribute a little something to the discussion here: I found an app called Link2SD (in Google Play Market) that allows me to move various apps' system files to the microSD card (called "linking") - it's not a total app move-to-SD but it does free up quite a bit of your internal memory. You would need to create a 2nd FAT32 partition on your microSD (I used "Minitool Partition Wizard" on my WinXP pc to do so) then use this Link2SD app.
Good luck.
Hi Shano56,
first of, thanks for your reply.
Sadly the sd-card is still read only even with the non-rooted 4.0.6 firmware after another reformat.
After that I tried another reformat and installed the 3.2.80 non-rooted firmware from archos website but even there the sd-card is read only.
I guess all I can do right now is to try to format the sd-card, after I backup all my data on it of course, and try if this fixes my issue.
yes i would try a reformat on the sd. make sure your SD card is in FAT32 format. perhaps the SD card is incompatible with your tablet
hi, first I updated to standard 4.0.6, all ok. then installed this rom. with standard 4.0.6 wifi works, using rooted version wifi doesn't work. I have always "getting IP" and discnnects. ciao
My experience is almost similar. It connects but disconnects after about 2 mins.
Then the whole wireless network goes down.
To reliably use other wireless devices, Archos must be turned off.
Help pls
Is that for every WiFi-network or just yours?
For me it happens at times at home but never happened at work so far.
And I can't say that it would happen in such a constant way as you said it happens to you. Sometimes it takes 10 min, other times 5 min or even does so almost instantly and then again it doesn't happen at all.
It didn't bother me that much after I updated to 4.0.6 since I was more at work than anywhere else, but I am curious what might be causing this.
I wiped my system clean and I am doing step by step amateur testing.
Reinstalling all my apps caused wifi drops.
Streaming smb shares also caused it.
Do you use smb shares at home? Maybe the reason why it does not happen at work.
I have tried UPnP and was able to stream about 30mins of video.
I have not been able to try on another router as yet.
I keep getting the archos update notice, how do I get rid of that?

Hi everyone,
first of all: Thanks to surdu_petru for his quick and splendid work.
it seems like I am facing some problem that was not expected by me.
The issue with the 4.0.5 read only sd-card is known, but the 4.0.6 should have fixed that behaviour, right? Well, for me it didn't. The sd-card is still read only and it seems like I can't fix it.
What I have tried so far:
All this was to no avail since the sd-card is still read only. In other systems, like in card reader on Windows, the sd card is read and write.
- Install the 4.0.6 rooted firmware over 4.0.5
- Download the .aos from the website and did a complete factory reset before installing it.
- Reinstalled the 4.0.6 rooted version
Any suggestions why the sd card "bug"(?) is not fixed with the new firmware?
Oh and I am running the 8GB 101 G9.
Best regards,
SpanFerkel
Take a look a this thread as well....
I had some external sd card read only issues before and some solutions were provided in that thread:

Archos 80S G9 16GB TI4430, ICS 4.0.6 rooted
This 4.0.6 rom seems very good after 2 days... No crashes, good battery performance, device is much cooler (less heat production by processor)
But I just noticed video doesn't play anymore, tested wmv and mp4 with build in video player and mx video player... Will do some more tests....
Anyone else has video issues?

Hi, so this is 4.0.6 rooted based on the new fw that came out just today? NOT the test2 FW, right?
