@Paschally - stop spamming duplicate questions all over the place - I've answered you in one of the other threads

I dont have this xml file with the last version, why?

[Paschally]

Im just lost,  i apologies

[suidaso]

In the last version of google play and beta version this file doesnt exists:

/data/data/com.spotify.mobile.android.ui/./shared_prefs/spotify_preferences.xml

:/

I use DirectoryBind tweak

I use "Root Explorer (File Manager)" on Android.

Navigate to /data/data/com.spotify.mobile.android.ui/./shared_prefs/

hold on spotify_preferences.xml and use the Text Editor.

Other File Exlorer didn't show the Path \data\data\

Now, with a explorer with root permisions and with adb shell:

root@XXXX:/data/data/com.spotify.mobile.android.ui # ls -la
drwxrwx--x app_141  app_141           2012-07-07 02:18 cache
drwxrwx--x app_141  app_141           2012-07-09 15:44 databases
drwxrwx--x app_141  app_141           2012-07-07 02:17 files
drwxr-xr-x system   system            2012-07-07 02:16 lib

:/  Spotify version: 0.5.1.15.g81977995

Has anyone just tried to move the app to the SD Card?  Can you move the app to the External SD Card?

[eatonjb]

Has anyone tried putting something in the init.d

so this is what I did.  I made a folder on my /mnt/extSdCard called Spotify

in a terminal session.. not sure if you can do this if you are not ROOTed but.. 

mount -o bind /mnt/extSdCard/Spotify /sdcard/Android/data/com.spotify.mobile.ui 

this tricked it into thinking that the local SD card where all the files get stored get pushed onto the External SD.

kind of a stupid trick.. and I don't know enough about android to add that to the init.d "yet"  but i am working on it. 

i think it's the init.d anyways.. good luck.. this seems to work

This workaround is better throught: Directorybind app
