[QUOTE="jaredmorgs, post: 167926, member: 459"] [MENTION=4573]Scumble373[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3799]FlippyFloppy[/MENTION] The section required is: developer.android.com/guide/topics/data/install-location.html [b]UPDATE[/b] If you read the second bullet point on that page, you'll notice that only the app is moved. Note the .apk file seems to be the only thing movable. User Data, Dbs, .dex files, and native code seem to remain on device. I don't know if that applies to the table store as well. Developer investigation required.. The only thing you guys would need to watch is being compatible with API versions older than Level 8, which is Android 2.2. I seriously doubt anyone is still running Froyo on any devices capable of running TPA at acceptable framerates. All you need to do is add into the manifest the android:installLocation="auto" attribute. This will let us move the table files onto our external SD cards. That is, quite seriously, it. A 10 minute code change (arbitrary time chosen due to one line of code in the build manifest), then a quick passthrough by us as a beta before releasing the change to Google Play. [/QUOTE]
