sd-ext not mounting at boot

I have flashed 4.2.2. Because of this, my ext is not mounting at boot but after my phone has booted. This shows up as an error everytime i reboot my phone. I have to then do a quick reboot to fix this. Then it work fine.

What can I do so that my sd-ext mounts automatically at boot?

[HTC Wildfire S] TeRrOkToR:
I followed your steps, partited the memory card in two (FAT32 and EXT2), downloaded and installed Link2SD. On first use the Partition asked to be installed the script, installed in EXT2, everything perfect, linked some apps. When the phone rebooted I opened Link2SD again and he asked to install the script again, I selected EXT2 and got the message "mount script can not be created". Linkeds apps stopped working and the "create link" is no longer available. I am using Android 4.0.4 phone zp200+. What should I do?

[HTC Wildfire S] S3nd41:
So I did all of this and my SD card is working properly with Link2SD.

Still now I can't get the Fat32 partition to be read by Windows, Windows says I need to format the card.

Is this supposed to happen?

Can I format the Fat32 partition through Windows so that I can access it directly or do I need to access it through the phone from now on?

Thanks!

ok so i successfully partitioned and created scripts (ext2) and at the the storage info i can see sd card and sd card 2nd part

but when i move my apps to sd card, the go to the main sd card not 2nd part (ext2) and when i move them to phone, they just go into internal memory,... how can i make use of 2nd partition ??
[HTC Wildfire S] Marlowwe:
I have the same problem.

When I want to move app, the apps moved to SD card (not into first part Ext. SD (16%Free) in photo) but to SD Card (30% Free)- this partition I didn´t created.

web: s7.postimg.org/yetcvhrvf/screenshot_1.jpg

thank you for helping

PS: Rooted Lenovo A850
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
Because with Link2SD if you select to move apps to SD it will move them to the 1st partition(Main SD card). To move them to the ext partition select the Create Link option in Link2SD. That moves your apps to EXT partition.
[HTC Wildfire S] Marlowwe:
Thanks a lot :)

hi, i have tried this tutorial, i have create the second partition on my sd card and make it as ext2

everything looks good until i want to try moving my apps to the SD Card, i choose 1 of my game that have the big obb file, i create the link and i thick all the boxes to link and move all the apps file to the second partition of the SD Card, but after finish i checked in storage info then my internal storage did not reduced

anyone can help me?
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
Just wait for a while. It takes some time for the change to show. Or just reboot if you want to see it faster.
[HTC Wildfire S] kundil12:
i have wait and still not get any change

so i reboot and still get notif about internal storage full
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
Again wait and if the notification does not go away, go to link2SD, choose relink library files , link dalvik cache, clean up the dalvik cache, clean cache. Hope it fixes it.
[HTC Wildfire S] kundil12:
i have doing all that you mention and still not reduced the internal memory

i think the file apps that move to 2nd partition is only the APK file, data file and obb file not moved, i dont understand why this happen, this happen only on some apps or game

another apps or game works fine
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
Well if you are asking about data and obb then they are not moved, probably because it would affect performance. Only the APK, lib and dalvik cache files are moved to 2nd partition. By the way there may be a way to move the obb files to /sdcard/Android/obb as they are just supporting archives, though I am not exactly sure. In my phone the obb s are downloaded in SDcard.
[HTC Wildfire S] kundil12:
is the method of the link2sd apps like that? just move the APK, lib and dalvic cache data? and left the obb file in the internal memory?

i'm using xperia z1 and the default location of downloaded obb file is internal memory, i can not change the preference of destination folder for obb file because the default is in there
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
Yes Link2SD does not move data and obb. But you can check out the int2ext scripts for that. I have not used them but they are quite popular. Just google it.

i don´t what I am doing wrong...

Anybody can help me? I'm desperate... I really donˇt know what is wrong..
[HTC Wildfire S] kundil12:
i'm not quiet understand about your mention "check the int2ext" can you explain me?
[HTC Wildfire S] aWFSuser:
int2ext and some similar scripts use your 2nd partition as internal memory i.e. the phone thinks it as part of internal memory. you can look it up in google. BTW I have never used them. And as of recent Link2SD update the paid version now supports moving data file but only the paid version.
[HTC Wildfire S] kundil12:
thanks for the explanation

i will try the new Link2SD version, i have bought the paid version since i firstly used this apps, hopes can move the data too

I creates links , i restart (new link2SD update requests this to finish correctly the link operation) , but when mobile restarts the apps are discovered!

Checking ext partition the apps were moved there but for some restriction the links are not able to view the sd ext partition.

The "nice" thing is that Link2SD update description says: "kitkat 4.4.2 problems solved" !!!

I installed more times, deleted the ext partition more times, repeated all more times...always same result!:(

Cannot create fat32 + ext4

Hello,

I use the MiniTool Partition Wizard on a 32GB and follow all steps as described. I have previously done this a number of time successfully.

I bought a new SD card which works fine. The problem is when I partition my card to 24GB (FAT32) + 4.5GB (ext4) and 1.5GB (Linux Swap) the partition wizard does it's job the then show the ext4 partition as "Other".

I have tried numerous time formatting it and cannot get it to display it as intended. Every time I choose ext4, after the format it displays it either as "Other" or "Linux Swap".

Any help would be appreciated.

I have samsung galaxy mini GT-s5570. I have used Link2sd. I have 8gb memory card and allow 1gb for ext4 partition. When sometimes I flashed new rom and use Link2sd to link my applications , after linking all applications it shows free internal storage of 115 mb from 178 mb and EXT4 partition of sd card shows around 465mb out of 1gb. But due to problem I flashed same rom again and installed same number of same applications as previous and links all with SD card. Link2sd shows free space of only 65mb out of 178mb and EXT4 partition shows the only 243 mb filled out of 1gb. After that I tried with changing second partition file system , also format rom about 2-3 times., but the result is same as in 2nd case. What is the problem? because from My 1gb 2nd partition around 750 mb is free and now my internal storage is full. So can't install more app. Can anybody solve it?

Help With Partioning

Phone: Lg e400f-Stock Version(2.3.6)

Using a 2 GB Sd Card at the moment (will get a 16B card soon!!)

I have tried using Minitool partion, Aparted (android app) and CWM to format my sd card but once format the phone says "blank or broken SD card" and i am able to mount my 2 nd partion, any way to fix this so that i can use both partions

(

When look at my sd card with disk info(pic shown) it says that the FAT partion is not mounted??)

Please Help!!:confused:

UDATE: Have Fixed this problem, apparantly android mounts the last partion, so I Did :

1) 9 Mb Fat Partion (first partion, this won't get mounted by android)

2) My Ext2 Partion(512 mb)

3) The rest of my spare space as Fat partion
[HTC Wildfire S] zombunny:
I repeated after you ;) and followed everything E X A C T L Y as you said. Literally, exactly, meaning that I read everything 2-3 times just to be certain, lol! But I am still getting the "Mount script cannot be created. mount: Invalid argument" error. I have been to countless threads, and tried countless methods. Nothing seems to work, it's the same damn error every time. :( I have a rooted Huawei Ascend Mate 2 (MT2L03 variant) on 4.3, bootloader unlocked, stock ROM, stock kernel, and I used EXT2 just because I wasn't certain if EXT4 would work (and you made me say that I would use EXT2 ;) ). I figured if it would work, I'd possibly redo it and try EXT4 just to see if my kernel supported it. I've tried Aparted, MiniTool Partition Wizard (I used this for THIS method, exactly as you said), GL to SD, DS App2SD,... it's to the point where I can't even think of everything I've done, my brain feels fried after working on this for several hours, and about 35 attempts. :( Everything I've done for the past two days? I've tried EXT2, EXT4, even EXT3, even FAT32 as the first AND for the second partition. I've maxed out the SD card space, I've left empty space, I've made the FAT32 first, I've made the EXT2 (and others) first. I've used Link2SD as a user app, I've used it after converting it to a system app. I've rebooted, rebooted, rebooted, rebooted, REBOOTED. Don't call me crazy, these are all methods I've been reading on the forums. :silly: Some people are saying "Noooooooo! Don't use Windows! Use your android because it's Linux based!" and some people are saying "Noooooooo! Don't use your android! Windows software is more reliable than those partitioning apps!" Everywhere I go, it's contradiction. And I have tried these contradictions. But I feel like I'm getting nowhere..... at least I'm stubborn, took me 3 months to FINALLY get my Z1S rooted properly (though, I'm still tweaking it to fix the touchscreen bugginess), so I do not give up easily! hahaha

Nice tutorial. It works for my phone. Minitool partition wizard does manage my sd card perfectly and safely, the most wonderful tool i used.
[HTC Wildfire S] AndroidifyIt:
I believe that is not true. I've seen second partitions bigger than 2GB, where did you get that information from?
[HTC Wildfire S] thoctor:
SD card 2nd partition size

Not trying to butt in but just contribute to the conversation here. I've seen those numbers in a tutorial link for actually partitioning your SD card but I believe on the developers faq site he recommends about 10-20% of the total card size for the 2nd partition but that's off of my memory from when I first partitioned mine. Not sure where that tutorial came up with those specific numbers but I also believe that is incorrect. Especially if you are going to link your data in the paid version. That's where you really start to use allot of space especially if you have allot of games or high data type apps. I set up like 6GBS for mine out of 64 and I have almost filled that up with the paid app. My phone has around 4.5 GBS of useable internal storage as well but fills up fast being so small.

I believe the larger you make the 2nd partition the more chances for higher error rates over time , thus the percentage recommendation, but I expect that anyway with SD cards so I say make it as big as you can stand to lose from your main Ext SD card but don't go crazy, like 50% or more. Just my 2 cents.
[HTC Wildfire S] AndroidifyIt:
I've seen people mentioning that 2+ GB causes issues if formatted as ext4 too. It's all very confusing. Anyways, I ended formatting mine as ext2 (for performance) with 10GB on my 64GB card.
[HTC Wildfire S] thoctor:
If I had it to do over again that's the percentage I would use too. Ext2 is the recommended format for use in stock roms but I'm using it on cyanogen based Rom and it's fine. Just too lazy to reformat it to ext4 after switching roms. I personally would fill up 2GBS quick fast and in a hurry so you partitioned wisely! I believe ext4 is what your recovery chooses as it's format choice if you partition through recovery but I've never used it. Instead I used EaseUS partition manager and my P.C. It is confusing but I think the main thing is it's not too hard for most anyone to do with a computer and a little tutorial reading. You can always redo it if at first it doesn't work and the extra storage space is worth the time.

[HTC Wildfire S] mirfatif:
Link2SD is a working solution for increasing internal memory i.e. by linking apps to 2nd partition on sd card. But I don't want to partition my sd card. Just a virtual partition (ISO or IMG file placed somewhere on sd card) should be mounted at /data/sdext2/ to which apps are linked.

Is there a way?
[HTC Wildfire S] Matt07211:
Im sure, but I haven't used Link2SD in a long time, so I'm just guessing. If it uses a script (if its easily accessible to you) to mount then im sure you can change the mount command inside to use the image file instead.

If not then I'm not sure

[HTC Wildfire S] d33ps1x:
Not keep on the SD card.

Keep your apps that load at boot on the internal for faster booting.

IE: If you download an alternate launcher to use. Keep it on internal so it loads faster at boot rather than wait for SD 2 to mount and load at slower SD card speeds.

Hope this clarifies things.

[HTC Wildfire S] rkleinhenz:
I suspect your phone does not support ext4. Mine is an A510c and I am quite sure it does not. I thought it would support ext2, link2sd sees it but but the bootscript failed every time, so made the 2nd partiton FAT32 and that works. I did not try to wipe cache and dalvik cache when that happened - will try that one of these days

( i tried it in phone, but the wizzard allowed only 400mb to unallocate :S, or if i do on this way i need to format sd first?)

if "using enchanced data protection" is off it allow 1300mb, in that way can i fail?
