Im having problems with my SD card with Mildwild, I keep having download errors where I cannot download anything not even app updates and the only way to fix it is unmounting and remounting the card in settings.

Little help.....

If so, post up your results!

There's actually already a thread going (though somewhat currently buried) here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1413919 . I'm very interested in using the Note as a miniature sketchbook, so hopefully either the various art apps get the SDK for the S pen going, or we get ICS so we won't need it. :) (Gingerbread? Really AT&T?)

check my post.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
*************PLz Note*****************

to create a partition on your SD card,firstly make a copy of it, IE back it up!

ie; insert sd card into sd card reader, goto my computer, right click on drive letter which has your sd card in, and copy, paste it to a folder of your choice somewhere on your computer.

this way it allows you to recover your sd card contents if all is lost....

I used mini-tool partition wizard, free download from the net.

follow instructions according to this post.

Thanks OP for sharing the script..

few questions here:

1. Can i flash it over a running stock odexed ROM?

2. Any precautions after i implement this script?

3. Any correct download link? as the posted links here dont work..
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
the link for data2sd is here >data2sd.

1. Can i flash it over a running stock odexed ROM? Yes

2. Any precautions after i implement this script? Yes and no, back everything up...make a copy of your sd on your computer. if done correctly no problems should appear

3. Any correct download link? as the posted links here dont work.. see above link

its a permanent host so it shouldn't expire

Img files including cwm recovery

ALL RUU FOR HTC SALSA

USE THIS COMMAND :

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

i replace all recovery.img files with the cwm recovery. so when you flash recovery.img, it means you are flashing the cwm recovery.

say thanks if you are fine with it :D

Hello there,

I have a 2gigs sd card. I formated as 756mb ext2 and the rest as fat32. The case is that the CWM can't see the sd card when I do so. Therefore I cannot flash htc-data2sd.

Any clues?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Done, I now over 800mb free space. I didn't wipe data cache etc. I just flashed over my current rom and its fine.
[HTC Salsa] kanded:
hello there, for 2gb sdcard, you do it as fat. not fat32. fat32 is for sdcard up to 2gb ;)

ext2 partition

ok so now i m having issues over here..

cwm5 is working as it shud work.

i installed busybox (proper version) and den created an ext partition of 1024 mb from cwm5.swap size was selected as 0.

the partition which got created was ext3 type and when i use mini tool wizard to format it with ext2 type it does format it but it still shows ext3 type partition..where m i going wrong?

i followed this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1465780
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
I couldn't edit a partition created by cwm. Delete it and create a partition by mini tool. With no swap drive. So just fat23 and ext2 only. It works that way better
[HTC Salsa] rohanpatkar:
how do i delete it...can u pm me ur gmail id?
[HTC Salsa] fshami:
Goto mini partition tool, select the ext partition & delete it.. then select the same partition & create a ext2 over it..
[HTC Salsa] rohanpatkar:
doesnt work...what i found out after little searching is that with cwm u can create ext partitions but cant remove it from pc...solution to this is formatting sc card from phone itself which removes the ext partition ,i havent tested this,...will be doing it now.

edit- unmounting and formatting sd card does remove the ext3 partition created by cwm.now the 8gb sd card being 8gb itself (as it shud ideally be) how do i create ext2 partition with mini partition tool? it gives me some error.disk i/o error !!
[HTC Salsa] rohanpatkar:
got sd card partitioned to ext2 but when i reboot...the HTC quietly brilliant logo keeps on running...and the phone doesnt reboot...hence cant proceed further to install busybox....ne solution to this?

edit- bootloop isnt der ne more.i formatted all partitions.

but then the question remains...how do we get data2sd to work?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
my gtalk is ferretsievo@gmail.com

Firstly have you unlocked your bootloader? have you got the new hboot?

If yes is above, have you got cwm 5? 4 is adequate but 5 is better lol

i found that you had to have busy-box installed prior to flashing data2sd scripting. so if its a standard rom, thats rooted, you make a nandroid backup in cwm so you can revert back if things fudge up.

you make a copy of your sd card onto your computer....

for your errors in minitool...thats what cwm does to you. you must wipe it with cwm to standard, then wipe it again in minitool to fat32, awlays do 1 procedure at a time.

reduce the size buy a gb and apply actions

format the unallocated drive space to ext2 then apply actions.

always do 1 by one..that way you know where the error is from.

if they are setup right, and you have busybox correctly installed with the right version, flash data2sd.

reboot and you should have the increase!

1. make sure your sdcard has been partitioned in ext2.

2. go to cwm recovery, wipe data, cache and dakvik cache. Reboot........DID NOT DO!

3. Install busybox, and choose the version v1.17.1

4. now go to cwm recovery again.

5. flash htc-data2sd sdcard

6. Reboot

i didn't do this as i found it wasn't required....i booted straight in on my rom.....and had the increase with everything still intact

[HTC Salsa] puppet13th:
Updated htc-data2sd.zip

Here is updated data2sd.zip for HTC Salsa and HTC Wildfire S.

How to use it :

1. flash CWM-Recovery 5.0.2.6 from CWM Recovery v.5.0.2.6 in English

2. Backup all your sdcard data

3. enter CWM-Recovery and make partition of your sdcard(this is the easiest way to partition the sdcard)

4. reboot your phone and copy all you data back to sdcard

5. copy htc-data2sd.zip to the sdcard as well

6. reboot to recovery and install htc-data2sd.zip

it's already included busybox-1.17.1

the included busybox is sololy used for the script,so there will be no problem installing diffrent version of busybox on your device.

your sd-ext partition will be formated to ext2,therefore all data on sd-ext will be lost.

htc-data2sd.zip download link

UPDATE :

htc-data2sd-ext3.zip download link

For OP : please update the 1st post and download link
[HTC Salsa] rohanpatkar:

thnx for the updated data2sd...

A quick question :

Have you unlocked the bootloader using the HTCDev ??

I have my HTC Salsa unlocked (S-OFF) using the XTC Clip and it seems that my device wont be able to upgrade to CMW 5 nor can I have the Data2SD on my salsa....

Also pls let me knw what is your ext partition ext2 ya ext 3....mine is ext 3 that is created using the CWM (no swap partition)

P.S Congrats !!
[HTC Salsa] rohanpatkar:
the tutorial used by saki and me are same and hence i can solve your queries !

1.bootloader is unlocked using method posted by shivam (refer salsa general forum) and HTCDEV is used only for getting the unlockcode.bin nothing else.

2.use tutorial (formed out of compilations) by pachuauz (again salsa general) to root your phone again.that will have cwm ver5 on your device.

3.ext2 partition is required.cwm creates ext3 partition which can be formatted to ext2 using mini partition tool.

follow my post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467060

to allow you access to the htc unlock, which then allows you to install cwm 5, until then...you cannot!

unstable

Hey,

I had done this long back with ext3 partion and then it was unstable. So thought of doing the whol procedure with ext2 and guess what...? same thing.

I followed the procedure as explained.

Installed busybox

flashed data2sdext2

everything was completed just fine

restarted my phone.. everything still loks good.. and suddenly i see 'force close' messages. I got the internal memory gain but at a cost of unstability.

phone has a huge lag time. when I press power button to start my screen it takes about 15/20 seconds to just switch my screen on.

Last time I also had a query about my sd card. I am using a Class 4 8 GB SD card.

Is it still considered as high speed (I mean; when we have class 10 in the market :D)? and does the issue has anything to do with the card? or I did something wrong? I am not sure.. can anybody help?
[HTC Salsa] fshami:
Ur card is messing up.. did my rom Iconic on a friends Salsa n gave fc's.. changed the sd card n its perfect
[HTC Salsa] any_body:
Only for this action (data2sd) i get class 10, 16 gb sd card and get it today...

So, must i format all of the sd card as ext2 or i must format ext2 how much gb i want use as internal memory?

If i format only the capacity how much i wanna use as internal memory, can i use other 14 gb as sd card memory? or must i format other 14 gb with another format?
[HTC Salsa] any_body:
Help Me Please... :((

I have just open 1.5 gb size from my sd cards starting part but now when i turn on the phone first the phone can recognize the sd card but then when i connect the phone to pc to put data2sd script to sd suddenly my sd card lost and my pc cant recognize the sd... :((

After that when i open the computer management in xp i can see sd card in a disk management but it card reachable as a device from my computer...

Can anybody help me asap???... :confused: :'(

Anybody has an idea?

PS : I am using Iconic Rom...
[HTC Salsa] chris...:
Whats the actual layout?

partition 1 vfat for /sdcard

partition 2 ext3 for /data
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
partitions need to be created in minitool partition wizard.

ext3 partition at max of 1.5gb no more as it becomes unstable.

set ext3 as primary then apply actions.

rest of sd should be untouched by the program...if you have formatted it then you have done it wrong. but it should be fat32.

have u managed to update your hboot?
[HTC Salsa] chris...:
Yes hboot is unlocked,

run root.zip (very dodgy)

flash CMW recovery

installed "thnig" rom, whats the most stable/popular rom?

setup the sdcard as outlined above using fdisk on linux

ran the htc-data2sd-ext3.zip

and it all works

I have 400+mb for internal storage

and 1400+mb for /sdcard

Hopefully, unlike the stock slasa rom, gtalk wont keep failing

Is it ext2 or 3? Should I use EXT4??? Why does the post says ext2 while the zip says ext3!!!
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
the scripts are not designed to be used with ext4 yet...we have no kernel to enable that.

the zip was never updated...the newer version is ext3 set and adds busybox as normal
[HTC Salsa] puppet13th:
updates is coming . . . :)
[HTC Salsa] uberano26:
What sort of updates? If you dont mind telling
[HTC Salsa] puppet13th:
i have rewrite all script with following advantage :

1. auto detect and mount ext2/ext3/ext4 file system(ext4 if supported by kernel)

2. sdext partition will get checked/fixed automatically on boot

3. sdext partition will get mounted /data mount point when boot

point 2 and 3 should make it stable enought. :o
[HTC Salsa] SteveBenz:
awesome, hopefully we can have larger sizes and no performance decreases (was the main issue)

any ETA when the rewrite will be complete?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
guys this won't work on apps2sd roms STOCK based roms only!.....have tested it and used it on as many roms as i can...apps2sd roms may give you increased memory but seriously ****ed up afterwards in different ways. stick to data2whatever on apps2sd roms.

anyway slight increase in memory gives u back around 10% extra....but nothing to shout about, but far more stable on ext3, not much lag from my experience, non on my own rom...vast improvement though..will be adding this to my rom thread..
[HTC Salsa] uberano26:
So this ought to work on m1nds 2.1?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
no, all m1ndh8x4r roms are apps2sd

[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
once you have flashed it onto the phone and its working then yes, by all means. but as the file is small anyway i keep them all in 1 folder on the SD card...so when i flash a new ROM I'm doing i just open folder and flash...without worrying if i have it on the SD or not
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
Something strange happen,after i flashd the file i Take off sd card and when i Return it

many program are sttoped (force close)...

Excused my bad Language
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
put the file you removed back then. you will probably find you will have to reflash the ROM again from scratch.

please don't use red caps/bold in a post unless your using it in the OP as a warning. it does look rather rude they way you have written it
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
ok my boss

I understand the second part, I did not know

but The first part I did not understand well.... may you explain more??
[HTC Salsa] puppet13th:
U should NOT take off the sdcard while your phone still powered on.if you want to pull out the sdcard,power off your phone first.

by the way r u finished data2sd for ext4 ...kindly do it??

any Idea?

what i can i do??

how big is your sd/class/ext3? this will show you why it will be laggy or slowly as u put it
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
my sd card is 8G/ class4/ ext3

what is the best for my sd card??
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
500mb ext3 as its a low class sd, also use sd-booster app from google play and set to 2048 this will help to increase it
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
thanx i'll try
[HTC Salsa] Go.Bin:
Actually im using same sd card n setting 700MB ext3. Its running fine when its reach about 600MB further than that it will turn into slugs lol
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
i did some extensive testing on this lol, found 500mb to be a safe usable average on this type of sd card. if you can get more then fine lol, but i set recommends only from my own tests to help others out. its entirely the users choice but we cannot help if you don't listen to advice lol
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
it still more laggy and sloly
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
sd-booster set? ext3? which rom?
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
sd-booster set..yes 2048

ext3 600mega

stock rom
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
stock ROM is heavily bloated with extras. as you have root get rid of them.

If you don't know which they are ask and ill list em up.

plus stock ROM is a bigger memory eater than a launcher based ROM.

reduce the ext3 to 400mb and then try it. still using sd-booster.
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
thanx for replay bro

i don't know...

plz list it

i uninstalld sd-booster ,, ill install it again with 400mb

something else

may u kindly tell me how reduce the ext3 to 400mb with (mini tool partition )

by the way my phone is

[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:

remove stocks and redundant apps. list up what apps u want or think about removing and will confirm with u
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:

[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
WTF lol

re-size the partition like you did the first time around
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
u said (stocks and redundant apps.) like what?

im new here:(
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
list the apps current to your phone. i know the wildfire is different in basic stock apps
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
which folder i get in?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
lmao

when you go into your app list normally, list up what you got.

what you gotta bear in mind is the apps you use.

news

weather

stocks

widgets

silly extra apps that come with your phone, i had fifa app.

list them all and i can tell u what can go without causing any problems

there's lots of things you can do to make your phone run faster with less lag. if you have done the reduced size and it still lags, personally i would go buy a better sd card. i ditched my class 6 8gb for a class 8 16gb.
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
some of the list:-

peep

htc likes

htc hub

latitude

places

news

stocks

news&weather

searsh voice

talk`

navigation

friend stream

transfer
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
OK latitude/places is part of Google maps, remove this and they will go, if you don't want the others then that's OK.

i use this app link2sd >https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ink2SD&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd

when you open app, just cancel the pop up box.

now you can select the apps you don't want and uninstall them.

for the stuff you cannot do i shall list up below the actual file names you need to remove them (use root explorer for this)

com.htc.trendswidget.apk

geniewidget.apk

htcgreader.apk

htcrecommneds.apk

htcrecommnedswidget.apk

herring.apk

slate.apk

stocks.apk

these are the basics ones and will free alot of apps from loading at the start.

Myself i also removed gmail as it is redundant and use stock htcmail as its far better.

removal of search may cause system problems.
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
I've got a question

can i remove as example only stocks.apk or also stocks.odex
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
both lol, as its the same app just odexed ie in 2 parts
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
what about flickr and friendstreem?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
if you wish you can remove them, friendstream is the sense version for facebook widget
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
thanx man...any thing else??

by the way i saw the free memory and i c nothing change?!!
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
in what way you c nothing change? have you rebooted?
[HTC Salsa] kh34d:
yes Twice..still used memry 52 mb and free mem 98mb
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
ok which data2sd are you using? i use this one http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?duigp9ky9796b65

when you flash it is there any errors?
