Dun if it works for you as my phone already ROOT and App2SD by Sam Lu will do the job manually
but no harm trying.
PS: adb is found in your HTC sync program
How To: Force Move To SD On Froyo Without Rooting
One
of major issues with android phones (except the new HTC Desires) is that they are low on internal phone memory, like my
HTC Desire comes with around 100 MB free internal storage out of which only 15MB is free right now. With loads of new app coming everyday there must be a way to install install Apps to SD card. With Froyo implementation of
Move to SD you cannot move all apps to SD card, in order to move an
app to SD card app developer must specify it explicitly during development and most of apps still lack that option.
In order to force Move to SD Card your phone must be running Froyo and
ADB drivers must be installed on your system.
Instructions
1. Ensure you have debugging enabled on your phone (Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging > Turn On)
2. Connect your phone to USB
3. Open Command Prompt/Terminal
4. Type: adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2
5. Press Enter and That’s it!
