Joe Bowser commented on CB-5920:
--------------------------------
[~jsoref] Yes, by choice. There needs to be more to the patch than just adding
this to an AndroidManifest.xml
> android:installLocation="preferExternal"

> I created a PR on github suggesting to add preferExternal
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-android/pull/91#issuecomment-33513325
> for phones with small amounts of internal storage (512MB and even 1GB,
> android 2.2 and 2.3 and even some 4.0) the user wont be able to install the
> app (or keep it) unless you let them put it on the sdcard instead of the
> internal phone storage. Very few cordova apps are the kind of app which
> shouldn't be on external storage.
