I have a dual SIM mt6589 based Android 4.2.1 phone, and I have no idea where the apps are getting installed.

My phone has an Internal SD card(built in), An External SD card and something called Phone Storage(/data ??)

Anyway the apps are supposed to be saved to my External SD but they get saved to Phone Storage.

Also the option move to External SD card is greyed out(It was available before!!). My vold.fstab file 

dev_mount sdcard /storage/sdcard0 emmc@fat /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.0/mmc_host
dev_mount sdcard2 /storage/sdcard1 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.1 /devices/platform/mtk-msdc.1/mmc_host

The answer to your re-phrased question can be found in the tag-wiki. In short:

  • App2SD cannot move the entire app to SDCard, there are always things remaining in phone storage (e.g. data, Dalvik cache, and some more)
  • There are alternative methods moving more stuff, such as e.g. or Data2SD

For details, please see the linked tag-wiki.
