My main HD on my phone is nearly full (30 gigs of 32 gigs used)... but I also have a 30 Gig SD card on there with lots of space... Is there a way for me to install apps on there instead of on the main drive?

I've made sure my kindle app, for instance only has the books I'm reading currently on my machine, that kind of thing...

What other suggestions would you have? THANKS!

Have you gone to Settings -> Storage & USB

and looked at how much is being taken up by Cached Data ? If you click on that, it will ask if you want to clear it and that could free up some space.

You can move apps over to the SD Card, but once they update they'll just be moved back to internal memory, which is annoying.

Go though the phone and delete stuff you don't need, also use the internal cleaning feature.

Built up cache can be a big issue, so definitely check that. I've also found built up texts to eat up space unexpectedly. If you text a lot and don't have your messaging app set to delete them automatically, then that's worth looking into as well.
