Dear Gents,
I am desperately looking for advice relating unistallation of application.
I have installed some crappy net monitoring app and it forces to screensaver with Pin input.
Guys it is really, really annoying!!!
I could not find this crapp in App manager.
I tried to do restore but this annoying bloatware it is there!!!
Also I do not want to void warranty!
Any advice would be appreciated much!
Last try I will try flash firmware
Cheers
Andy
Guys just to add this topic above. Anytime when I try to install some app the installation is going to default to internal memory instead of SD card.
How to get rid this annoying behavior???

That's how android it's intended to work.

Uliwooly so what is solution then? On obsolete symbian S60 was option to make choice to go either to internal phone memory or external sd card before installation of app iteself!
Why android needs to save app to internal memory default?
It does not make any sense for me!
I have great 16 GB SD card and just 25% usage...

Hello again!
Like mentioned by @uliwooly this is how it works with apps and the SD card in an Android phone.
The app needs to be on the internal storage when it's being updated. You will then have to move the app(s) manually after the update has been completed.
You can read more about how it works with applications and SD cards below:
When you move an app to the external SD card, only the application APK is moved. The APK is the file that was downloaded when you installed the app from Google Play. Additional data, such as private data, databases and Opaque Binary Blob (OBB) files will remain on the internal storage. The OBB files are not affected at all when you move an app, since the OBB file is generally put outside the app folder. The path is known by the app and used by the app. The path can't be changed, otherwise the app would not find the OBB file.
There is a few things you can do to free up space in your phone.
After using the phone for a while the cached data will start to fill up, this is temporary saved data from application. So if you are OK with deleting this you can do so by going to Settings > Storage > Cached data > OK.
If you have apps in your phone that can't be uninstalled but you aren't using them you can uninstall updates for the apps, they will then be restored to the factory version of the app which is smaller in size than the fully updated version.
To do that go to Settings > Apps > name of the app > Uninstall updates.
If you have automatic updates turned on in the Google Play store you will either have to change this so these apps won't be updated automatically again, to change this open up the Google Play store app > 3 vertical lines in the top left corner > Settings > Auto-update apps > Do not auto-update apps.
If you want to keep this feature enabled you will have to search for each of the apps that you uninstalled updates for in the Google Play store > find the app > tap on it > 3 dots in the top right corner > uncheck "Auto-update".
Make sure that you have transferred what you can to your SD card, Settings > Storage > Transfer to SD card.
If you are using the camera a lot you can also check if the setting to save photos and movies directly to your SD card is enabled. Start with opening up the camera application > 3 dots > gear icon to the right > Data storage > SD card.
Let me know if anything is unclear! 
Dear Gents,
I am desperately looking for solution how to get rid and install apps to SD card memory on my Sony Xperia ARC C.
I have totally exhausted internal memory and it is preventing me install even small app to my Xperia.
Gents it is really, really annoying.
I have tried root my Xperia but without success!
I can understand what fool made such old Android OS. Shall SD card just used for media aka mp3, videos etc?
Any advice would be highly welcomed!

Gents nobody as any comment to this annoying issue? I have tried many rooting apps (kingoroot, link2sd) but no success. It seems that crap shall be rooted but how?
Funny thing is that some apps aka miniopera are installed to external SD card indeed.
Another annoying thing woule be fact that most off apps I can not move to SD card because of button is greyed!!!!
Any advice would be welcomed.
Thanks!
Regards
Andy
