I found an article with an easy change to allow your Android apps to be moved to the SD card. Two easy steps, both in Eclipse: 1. Modify the Manifest Edit the AndroidManifest.xml file of the application to add an entry for android:installLocation='auto' to the <manifest> tag: <manifest xmlns:android='http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android' package='com.PACKAGENAME' android:versionCode='2' android:versionName='1.0.1' android:installLocation='auto'> ... </manifest> The value is set to “auto” so that the user can decide where to install the application. If this value is not present at all, the default behavior is to only allow installation to internal storage and not to give the user a choice. 2. Update the Build Target This only works for BT 1.5 and 2.0 apps. The build target needs to be at least API Level 8, otherwise you’ll get the following error: error: No resource identifier found for attribute ‘installLocation’ in package ‘android’ Now, load the application on a 2.2 device (or emulator). Go to the application management area and you’ll now see that it can be moved to the SD Card! Here's the original article: http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/move-to-sd-card/

Awesome tutorial...thanks, MGoBlue! Mark

Another possible entrust is 'perferExternal' For those unfamiliar with how buzztouch forum handles double quotes the auto or perferExternal are surrounded by double quotes. Also you can tell when the entry has been done correctly by the color of the letters. Fred
