[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
Hi,

I successfully prepared my SD-card and rebooted the device. I was told this would take a bit longer for all the apps being moved, but it didn't.

I haven't applied any scripts from OR, because CM7 should perform the ext2 procedure automatically when booting with a prepared SD-card inserted.

But now I lost (or can't find?) my Google apps, keyboards and probably some other stuff. Looks like all the apps stored in internal memory are gone, but where, as I don't know how to get to them if they're on ext2. I don't notice any differences regarding moved apps and an operating ext2, except from that they're missing now... There's also no SD folder in System, which I think should have been created.

I can see all the apps in the installed list, but they have native Android icons, just like some shortcuts on my homescreen. Also widgets from apps installed in (former?) internal memory don't load. It looks like Android just needs to be told where they are now (just like myself ;-)

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Gerard

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
You should see a folder on your sd card called sd-ext and there should be 3 folders in there. Open up sd-ext/dalvik-cache and your apps should be there.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
Reboot, wipe dalvik and cache, reboot and see if your app shows up.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
Nope, there is no "sd-ext" folder on my SD card. There is also no "sd" folder in "system".

In OR I just ran "Scandisk ext2" from the Utility menu and wiped both Dalvik and normal caches. At least that brought back my apps, but I have no idea where they are located now: in internal memory or on ext2...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
See my previous post, in Holland we say "2 souls, 1 thought" :-)

So i wiped both caches and indeed got my apps back. I also ran that "Scandisk ext2" command, dunno what that did though.

So what I'm curious about is where I am now: back to how it was, or running ext2?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
What is your internal memory? If you have Linux, check your ext partition. It should have app, app-private and dalvik-cache folders with your apps in the app folder.

You should also have those folders inside /sd-ext folder or /system/sd-ext folder, not in the sdcard.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
My internal memory is approximately 17 MB up now. Is that a reasonable amount?

I don't have Linux, but Ext2explore shows this:

I can find no /sd-ext folder or /system/sd-ext folders.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
Yup. That's it. I forgot that in the latest CM7, kabaldan moved the dalvik-cache back to the data partition. So yes, your apps2ext is working.

But, you should have a sd-ext in your root folder for sure.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
So I don't need those /system/sd-ext folders? If not and it's all okay, great!

I have a few other questions though. Will everything I install from the Market from now on be installed at ext2, even if it's apps2sd enabled? Since apps already installed on my SD-card through apps2sd have not been moved to ext2, should I leave it this way or are there any benefits moving them too? If so, how? Is it better to install apps2sd enabled apps on SD or to ext2? Is there a way to control or handle this?

I realise this is a lot to ask, but I haven't been able to find the answers yet. Links are welcome too!

Thanks again,

Gerard
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
Stop the presses!

Found the sd-ext folder!

Somehow I looked at the wrong level or so, sorry!

So glad it works now!

Just eager to know how to use it the best way, as my previous post shows...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
Any app you install now goes into the ext folder automatically. When you delete it, it removes itself from the ext partition.

Though the app is stored on the ext partition, some internal space will be used. But you can install a lot more apps.

Regarding apps already moved using apps2sd, just move them back to the internal storage and reboot your phone. They will move to the ext folder on reboot.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twixyz:
This really works great. I've moved all my apps to ext2 and everything runs smoothly.

Indeed my internal memory is dropping however, because of the apps data, which is stored in the "/data/data" folder, so I've read.

I've also read this data could be moved to SD also, but I'm not considering that yet. But what to do when internal memory is running out? What's the limit for stable, smooth operarion? I have about 50 MB free now.

Thanks again,

Gerard
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] phlppk:
i am having very similar problems. using apps2ext for the first time. (latest miui by lalit)

from my understanding apps get stored on the ext partition on the sdcard.

i moved some apps - that supported it - and everything was fine (i thought)

then i wiped my fat32 (i moved all of the files to my pc) -- BUT now my phone isnt able to find the apps (on the ext partition?!) anymore...

what am i missing here?

EDIT---

i just discovered the ".android_secure" folder and moved it back to my sdcard. my apps reappeared.

so there are 3 locations i can store my apps?

1) internal

2) SD: ext

3) SD: fat

how do i tell my phone to store everything on ext? i am able to move apps from within phone-application-settings to sd-card (gets stored on fat) or move them with titanium backup (also just internal and sdcard)

when i check titanium backup it lists 3 storage locations 1) internal 2) sdcard 3) sdcard (a2sd)

miui sd-card setting (A2SD+) on the other hand says "this device does not support A2SD+)

sorry for all this confusing stuff up there. i am trying to understand this

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] CronusStrife:
I don't think this is the right place to talk about this.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] janosik47:
app2ext (second ext2/3/4 partition on the SD card) is different to the native Froyo app2sd (a virtual filesystem base o files stored in .android_secure folder).

The app2ext requres a script to be executed as the Android satrts (e.g. placed into init.d) and its makes all the stuff 'invisible' for the system, it simply moves all the apps from internal storage into the ext partition and links the partition to the filesystem. Once you have it you do not need to manually move every single apps to sd.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] parads:
I've created an ext2 partition and CM7 move my apps to it. But when I continue moving my apps from sd to internal (or "not SD"), my internal storage go down.

I restarted the phone but it's 18MB free yet.

Must I move some apps to SD again?

Another question: what about davilk cache? When I did this on stock rom, the script I've used move davilk-cache to ext2 too.

Thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] :
Dalvik cache is not moved to ext partition in cm7.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] parads:
Maybe I've writen bad my previous post.

When I move apps from SD to internal (because I want them on ext2 partition) my internal storage increase (the free space go down). So, this app2ext doesn't give me any advantage over app2sd from android.

There is a solution or workaround for this?

Greetings.

I am trying to install Cyanogenmod 7.0.2 on my HTC Tattoo (still has 1.6). This is the first time I've done this.

I am following the Cyanogenmod wiki page that shows you the whole process of rooting+flashing a new rom (since this is my first post I am unable to post outside links in this thread).

In the "Installing Clockworkmod Recovery" section, I get the following error when trying to flash the image:

flash_image: not found

I listed the files in /sdcard and saw that it was completely empty.

Can anyone tell me what I missed?

I copied the Clockworkmod image file to the root directory by connecting my phone to my PC through USB (USB Debugging was on) and copying the file there.

Please let me know how to solve this.

Thank you.
[Click General] ulaikamor:
I was able to solve my problem and proceed with the attempt to flash Clockworkmod. Now I'm getting another error though:

error writing recovery: No space left on device

I have plenty of space in the SD Card (~2GB), but I'm assuming the problem is with the phone's internal memory. I don't know what I can delete.

Any thoughts?

Thank you.

Hi

Ok so i see you have that kind of problems...

I done it this way.

Downloaded Rom Manager->Downloaded Superuser

Then in ROM MANAGER i clicked an option "Flash Clockwork Mod Recovery"..

After that my phone had Clockwork and i completed the procedure to Flash CM7...

Hope this will help you.. ;)
[Click General] ulaikamor:
Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I tried to do as you said and installed both Rom Manager and Superuser. But now I have other issues...

1. On Superuser, it says there is a newer version of su and to update. I accept and get the following error:

An error occurred and su was not updated. A zip file (su-2.3.1-bin-signed.zip) has been placed on your sdcard, please reboot into recovery mode and flash it to update your binary.

2. So, I decided to ignore the update of su and just move on to Rom Manager. Here, I get an error like "su was not found in /system/bin". Well, su is in "/data/local/bin", as per the cyanogen wiki to root the phone. After this, any attempt to flash Clockworkmod fails.

3. To try to make it so Rom Manager has everything it needs, I followed the wiki again, but this time I tried to move the su file to /system/bin. I got the following error:

failed on './su' - Cross-device link

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
[Click General] CROpipe:
Hmm, i had the same problem when i was trying to Flash CM7...

Your phone is not rooted...

I know its very frustrating but no worries!

1.Download program from this thread ->http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=761507... you'll see the program in attachemnts and dl the first one.

2.Paste it in your's SD card , install it (use ASTRO MANAGER, to find the program)

3.Open the program and root the phone with 1 click ;)

4. Then Superuser will ask you to allow it and click yes, and go to ROM MANAGER.

5.You will have to allow the Superuser here too.. Do it.

6.Flash Clockwork Mod recovery, and reboot into recoverymod.

7.Flash your Rom , flash Gapps(Google applications)

8.Enjoy
[Click General] ulaikamor:
Thank you CROpipe!

Your instructions worked! I now have CM7 installed on my HTC Tattoo! ;)

Here are the issues I found though:

1. When I was trying to download the ROM using ROM Manager, the list of ROMs was empty. Maybe it's because I was not using the Premium version...? I ended up downloading the ROM from the forum, copying it to the SD card and installing it that way.

2. I tried also to install GApps through Rom Manager. I was afterwards able to set up my google account, but I still had to manually download GMail, Google Maps, ... I'm not sure if this is actually how it's supposed to go... :-/

Anyway, thanks again for the help.

Hi there sorry if this has been asked before but I flashed my phone to indroid 2.2 because I was tired of waiting for the official version to come out

but now I have a problem with my phone and I may need to send it off to Samsung for repairs as the power input is a bit dodgy

So I think flashing does break the manufacturer warranty, but is there a way to un-flash the phone and go back to the original 2.1 set up so the manufacturer warrant is restored or maybe making Samsung not notice

Well, I've installed Korean ime(dioime.apk) and put all needed libraries and even swapped text_code_map, all the keychars and keylayouts(which are stocks from a Korean rom).

It seemed working fine and noticed caps and alt do not work properly on the keyboard.

Once I use the caps key, it stucks with capital letters even tho the bar shows the triangle.

For the alt key, it sometimes changes en to kr and sometimes just doesn't work.

So, I thought sth wrong with the latinime and swapped to the stocks but still no luck.

Is there actually a warranty void sticker on this phone? The serial sticker is NOT a warranty sticker - a lot of people seem to think (I know I used to) removing it/peeling it off voids the warranty. I talked with a Samsung employee today who confirmed it's not a warranty void sticker, so how the hell do they know if you messed the phone up by taking it apart?

I read the whole samsung warranty section and nothing there about a warranty sticker. Where could i have possibly got the misconception months ago that when I replaced my screen [I did it myself, no insurance, it was cheaper to do it myself with a brand new screen than had i had insurance anyway] when i peeled off the serial sticker i voided my warranty.

I mean, did i really void it -and if so, what did i do to void it, because it's not that sticker apparently.
