How to know path of installed app - LG Optimus Black

How to know the path on SD card of certain app.
The reason because, for example, I installed a game SHADOWGUN DeadZone. Play Store automatically installs in sd card on certain path.
I want to know the path to backup for future purpose.
Please tell me if there is any trick to know.

We? Multiple personality issues? Most of the times you will find the game in the Android/data/"name of the game manufacturer".

Depends on what os I knw jellybean some apps install in mnt/asec click on folder of desired app and the actual apk inside the folder is named pkg.apk. hope this helps!

It was recommended in the Best Games thread.
I've tried it and it works, but it constantly crashes on me when trying to load Track 4 in Chicago as a Quick Race mode.

Are you using an Epic? It always tells me I don't have enough space even though I have 180MB free internal.

I'll tell you what I did:
1. Unzip into some folder on your desktop
2. Connect the phone to PC and mount to use the card as drive
3. Copy .apk to SD card
4. Disconnect from PC
5. Run .apk (Make sure it's allowed in the Settings/Applications/Unknown sources - checked)
6. After install completes run it once. It should show EA logo and force close.
7. Reconnect to PC and mount SD card again
8. Copy folder with the game staff from unzipped archive into specified location on the SD card (Android/data/com.ideaworks3d.nfsshift) overwriting everythig.
9. disconnect
10. start playing
Ah didn't realize the data files needed to be in the Android folder. Moved them in and the game is working now. Sweet graphics. Thanks stud_muffler.

what exactley does it do?
if you have your battery drained, it might be caused by your SD card...i heard sandisk cards make a lot of trouble :/
It's nothing, the dev thought it was something it's not. And this phone probably already have this installed anyway.
Edit: I'm not sure, but I have a faint memory that it is game-profile related. Something the likes of it maybe clocks down the cpu if your running a simple game and maybe set the min freq higher on cpu-intensive games, to minimize lag.
Installed it as an App for the P880 a few days ago - still 100% battery after 3.5h standby, never had this before
Installed it , feels nothing different .

APK doesn't work while it is in system/bin, it should be in system/app.
The same was on one x until HTC fix it.
So you have to move NvCPLSvc.apk from system/bin to system/app or just install update.

Not apply it by "install", you need to apply this fix by:
1. Ensure you are a SU enabled
2. Ensure you mount system mount point with READ WRITE permission
3. copy it to /system/app/
4. And delete all cache files in /data/dal-vikcache/
5. Reboot

Hello there. You can use Link2SD, after you root your phone. Rooting will not modify your phone; rather, it helps you have better control over how your device works.
Take a look at this thread on rooting your SP.
Once you've rooted, you can partition the sdcard using Minitool Partition Wizard on Windows after which you can link all of the apps you want moved to the sdacard.
Best of luck.

bro i am rooted can you be more specific how to use create partition.thnks
ok just noticed that this phone actually have built in sdcard..
when i see the file explorer, there's sdcard0 (the internal built-in sd) and sdcard1 (the external sdcard)
i guess it's already partitioned and linked by default thus increasing its internal memory by using internal sdcard...
so i found this guide : http://www.droidiser.com/2012/11/swap-internal-sdcard-external-mod-android.html
saying it can swap the phone to use external sdcard instead of internal... hmmm intersting
should i do this? please need expert here !

for me i use foldermount. its a bit like link2sd but this only moves the files inside the android/data and android/obb folder. but this one is better because you dont have to create another partition on your SD card. im not against using script to swap the internal and external but if something were to happen, its gonna be messy. so folder mount is the best solution for me right now.
using foldermount i can install wicked games like wildblood, avenger initiative, minion rush, pacific rim, royal revolt, csr racing and still have 3.4GB free on my internal.

I think we really need to use foldermount for now. Ive tried messing around with vold.fstab and failed. First pic is my tipo with 32gb internal. 2nd pic is sp. Now, how to make that microsd become /sdcard? Or rather /storage/sdcard0? Sure foldermount works, but manually moving everything after every install? Its better if we can find a permanent solution like this vold.fstab mod.

Maybe dumb question, but why we need to delete this folder? It's not making phone work any worse or better!?!?
