Short answer: No.

Long answer: It is possible to move a very limited number of programs to the memory card after installation. They will however not show up in the application list, and therefore needs to be started by a filemanager or Tracker.

I have found that you can easily move the contents of c/system/install to d/system/install, and SOME apps can have their folder moved from c/system/apps/<appname> to d/system/apps/<appname> ... but most die when you move the app folder.

Also look into moving everything from c/documents to d/documents which will give you a tad more space.

Really sucks though to be running out of space when I have a 1GB SD card 😞

Thanks for your reply!
We can install P800 apps by install sonyericsson platform ID into our A925, how if we copy out a patch from P800 and put it in our A925 and make our A925 to support installing software on Memory card. Is that possible?
