I installed link2sd but when I try to move the app to sd card show me this error.

Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda premium

I had the same problem with my S3 Mini, what i did is 1.Install Link2SD. wich created a mount script for the second partition to be mounted to /data/sdext2 at boottime
and then i also got the INSUFFICIENT SPACE error when i tried to move. so i looked for the init.d script at /etc/init.d/ its called link2sd or someting like that and then 2. i manually changed that script to include "mount -o bind" commands so i could link manually my copied data maps on the second partition to the 'local' /sdcard/Android/data or ../obb
it worked but you have to remount the /etc directory to get write acces to be able to change the init scripts and also you are depending on a kernel wich supports init.d scripts.

took me a few days to figure it out but i just got my first android since 2 weeks and only have some linux/unix experience so i get the commands.

Hey guys,

I think I've tried everything but it doesn't look like this is possible to do.

I tried to do it on an un-rooted I9300 4.1.2 with TouchWiz and had no success.

Now I'm using CM 10.2 and I still I'm trying to find something useful. And again with no success.
