Thanks for this SuperAce609 :)

Now I've got like 500MB of Internal Memory running on my MIUI GB using the Amarullz script. The script runs very smooth too, no lag on this very smooth ROM or whatsoever.

Help!

Thanks for your great help! :good:

I have a question.

I am using Miracle V4 rom by itasoulas, which is based on CM7.2. It is an awesome rom in itself and supports A2SD. I can move all the installed apps to sd card. Even those which are restricted like Facebook, Gmail etc. But I dont know which script is installed.

I checked init.d folder and the following apps were installed-

00banner

01sysctl

02cooper

03firstboot

04modules

05mountsd

06mountdl

20userinit

journaling_off

ram-optamize

S7darky_zipalign

S98system_tweak

sqlite_optimize

Can you make out of this which script is used? Can install install some other script to free up even more space?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Full wipe only deletes user data. System files such as scripts are untouched.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Seems like you don't have an A2SD installed. You're free to choose from the first post whichever one you want.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ankur.chakroborty:
Then how am I able to move all those apps to sd which was not possible on the stock rom? Sorry for asking such absurd questions! I am still a noob! :confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Why don't you try reading everything in the first post?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MrChaosDesire:
Hey SuperAce. Gonna ask you a question real quick regarding the Amarullz script. I installed the script to the phone not too long ago on the MIUIXXX ROM which is now maintained by CallMeLewis now, and I seem to have a problem with downloading from the market even though I have like roughly 300MB of free Internal Storage space left, thanks to the script. However, when I downloaded more apps from the Play Store yesterday, it didn't manage to install because it tells me I have insufficient storage on my device, and I don't get why. I can install APKs from unknown sources but just not from Play Store (at least when I tried to install through APK it didn't say I don't have enough storage). So yeah, I don't know what else to do. Should I reinstall it or something? I think it might be a problem with Play Store but I don't see a workaround

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Pseudonym:
I think it's a problem of the Amarullz. Tried wiping Play Store and Google Services framework data and cache? I think that solved my problem long ago. Don't really remember now as I'm using Cronmod's Int2Ext script. Same function with Amarullz, but better :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] MrChaosDesire:
Hey thanks for the reply. Let me ask you a question. Do I need to wipe the partition of what I have for Amarullz? Or do I get to keep the partition and just remove the files from init.d and then just flash on Int2Ext+?

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Pseudonym:
Better if you do a reflash of the ROM so you won't have problems in the future. But you can always have a nandroid back-up to be safe
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
That's a little baby bug that happens not only in this situation. Install Market Fix. Download the apk from somewhere and install it manually.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I also recommend you reflash.

Amarullz A2SD step

For this step, I'm using Apocalypse CM7 final 17-06 by itasoulas, and if I follow the steps by changing permissiongs to rw-r-r, after I reboot, there's no changes to my internal memory. So, I come out with a decision by follow the permissions of other scripts in init.d, which is rwxrwxrwx, and after reboot, the A2SD by Amarullz works! So, just want to ask if the steps given incorrect on permission that part. And thanks for the guide :good:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Those are the steps I set it up with and they worked. But some people have used it with all the boxes ticked too. It's actually like that on the original thread but since it worked with rw-r-r too, I just put it up. I don't really know what the difference is though.

But now that you mention it, I should add it to the first post just in case it happens to someone else.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] limejustin:
what will happen if i decided to remove the sd card?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
The phone will not boot. Or it will freeze if you remove it while you're using it then it'll reboot and not boot.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] golfgtiedition30:
Thank you , with the help of this guide I freed up 90mb of space :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
90MB? Which method did you use? S2E?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] golfgtiedition30:
Sorry my mistake , more like 152mb using S2E
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] r4wky:
hey...i have a question....

i have already formatted my sdcard partition of 256 mb through CWM...

now i want to increase the partition to 512 or 1gb...

so what should i do???

if i format again my card ....will the 256 mb gone or will it be included in the new partition i make???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
You will have to format the whole SD and erase the partition already made to be able to restart again from scratch and remake the partition. Otherwise you will have a lot of partitions that won't be useable just taking up SD space.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] r4wky:
ok ...

so if i format the whole sd card.....so there wont be any problem???

and formatting the sd card will also erase the partition???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] golfgtiedition30:
No problem , back up your sd card and format it again which will erase the partition , then just partition it again :D

Compatibility with PAC ROM

Does Amarullz work with PAC ROM? :confused:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Don't know. Never tried it. Use INT2EXT+. I know it works for sure and it's better than amarullz.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] hassan.qureshii:
Didnt Worked with my ace

I tried it many times but it is not working with my Galaxy ace S5830. When i see my SD Card size it shows 3gb and 1gb on ext memory but it is stll 180mb on my phone memory... Any solution of it ?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
I did it the first time on my Ace running PAC ROM, it worked but I had installed too many apps at once so it got VERY laggy. So I did a full wipe (Phone and SD Card) removed the partition by how you had mentioned and repeated the process again (did the 512MB partition acc. to your procedure) but it doesn't work anymore :/ The Move to SD option is dimmed and when I installed Whatsapp it got stored in the internal memory rather than the external. Did I do anything wrong?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Jellybean is just horrible on the ace. I tried that rom out myself amd installing all my apps was a real pain.

Use INT2EXT+. S2E is starting to feel a little outdated.

256MB or 512MB?

Ye sure it is a BIG pain. The apps which are usually on the SD card (like Zedge, Nimbuzz, etc.) are getting installed on the internal memory and the ones which can be moved by the script are crashing often :( I used the script on http://androidforums.com/a75-all-th...niversal-method-increase-internal-memory.html to fix the performance issue but there isn't any noticable difference, been running it for weeks now. I read somewhere in the comments section that 256MB partition is faster than 512MB. Is that better?? I don't mind doing the partition again cuz I've more than half of my extended internal memory free. Also does this script move the app data and dalvik cache to the SD Card?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
INT2EXT+ does everything you need. You won't have to worry ever again. Trust me.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
256MB or 512MB?

My question is, is the 256MB partition better than the 512MB partition in terms of performance?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
They're both the same dude. That doesn't matter. All partitions are read/wrote the same. Not every little thing affects performance on Android.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
So is there any fix for the performance issues with the script? The lags & crashes are starting to get annoying now.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
What are you talking about? What script are you even using? You're not using INT2EXT+ are you?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] scorpion85:
i had installed INT2EXT+ script into Android 4.2.1 CM10.1 Rom.

but it had not word and hang my device.

now what to do..?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I don't know about that. I've never used that rom before. Ask Wayland about it. Did you follow the installation completely step by step?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sandy4u:
Excellent Guide!!

Just one short doubt, What to do if S2e is not Working??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
How would it not be working? Well, if it's unfixable then go for INT2EXT+.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sandy4u:
Same here, cant use this guide in 4.2!

It says s2e not compatible
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
You can't use THAT SCRIPT on 4.2. Saying the whole guide is generalizing. Did you try the other scripts?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sandy4u:
Yes Bro!

But no gain ..

I had already formatted the sd card to ext4 format..

Sent From Your Behind :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Well that's weird. Then I'm guessing there's no A2SD for 4.2?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sandy4u:
May be ..

There's no other method? ? :confused:

Cheers :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Well, these 3 are the only complete and trustable methods I know that always work. Ask the dev if there's a working script for the rom.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sandy4u:
Ok bro!

If you come across then do tell!

Thanks :)

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Alright man, as soon as I find one I'll add it to the first post.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
Hey SuperAce609!

Can you possible help me? I'm pretty new to Android, and am stuck trying to figure something out;

(I bought a Galaxy Ace S5830 a couple of days, rooted stock, and am now on Myth ROM v2)

I found out on the first day that the internal storage is woefully small. Which lead me to your thread..

Anyways, I'm following your instructions at the start of this thread, but I'm a little confused with the following;

(under INT2EXT+)

3. Make sure you delete ANY A2SD you have in your init.d folder. (When I search with Root Explorer, I have '/system/bin/a2sd' and several others but no init.d folder. Am I looking in the right place?)

4. Boot up CWM5

5. Mount system and data

6. Look for it and flash it ( I assume this means back to "run .zip" in CWM?)

7. Format SD EXT (Didn't already make the partition in the first part step 7?)

Thanks for your help! Sorry if these questions seem dumb - I've already bricked one phone this week. Don't really want to do a second..

Cheers!

Brik
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Good thing you asked your doubts.

The init.d folder is in system>etc> and there you'll find init.d. Delete the a2sd script.

Look for it and flash it means to go to install zip then install it.

Step 7 doesn't mean MAKE a partition. It's telling you to FORMAT it. Making it and formatting it are two different things.

Follow these and you'll be good.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
Thanks for the info and quick reply! Very Much appreciated!

:D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
Yes I was! When I flashed that script, I had performance issues so I flashed this --> http://androidforums.com/a75-all-thi...al-memory.html. But the performance lag is still there :/
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] TheBlackWolf:
CWM creates ext4 partition???
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Performance issues? You're the only one with that problem. I can't help you with a script I don't know about.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I think it's ext3. What difference does it make?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] TheBlackWolf:
Actually I saw a script(don't remember the name) and prerequisites were ext4 partition.

I googled the difference between ext4 and ext3

LINK
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Point is, ext4 is better xD.

Thanks for the info!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
Hey SuperAce609!

managed to do your SD mod ok using INT2EXT, but I found I kept getting a reboot loop after I started installing a few apps.....

I see you're on "Stock on Fire". Can I use your instructions above on this ROM as well?

(I noticed here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32043596&postcount=278 you recommended Myth. Hence why I tried it..)

Thanks!

Brik
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I highly recommend both. And if you followed the steps correctly, you shouldn't be getting a boot loop. If you're using myth, you should've deleted the a2sd script in the init.d.

Did you do that?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
Yes, I did that. I followed your steps verbatim (except I used a 1024Mb Partition).
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Did you make a backup? Restore it. Then download A2SDGUI from the market. Open it and move everything to internal memory. Dalvik cache and apps. Then delete the app and the a2sd script from the init.d. Then retry again installing INT2EXT+.

Did you format the partition after you flashed the script? Just double check on the steps to make sure. I've never had that problem before and I've used Myth 2 for a LONG time with that script.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
LOL I did all of that, EXCEPT this;

"Then download A2SDGUI from the market. Open it and move everything to internal memory. Dalvik cache and apps. Then delete the app and the a2sd script from the init.d. Then retry again installing INT2EXT+"

I have been using INT2EXT (standard) will try +

Thanks for the info. Will test and get back... :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
That's just an extra step I did when isntalling it on Myth. It doesn't really matter but just to make sure. And I don't know if INT2EXT works the same as +. That's the difference here and maybe the cause of the problem.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] BrikHaus:
Yep, it appears not using the + version was the problem.

Thanks again SuperAce609! :D
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Np. I'll add that to the first post to clarify.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
4.2 support?

Does int2ext support 4.2.x ROMS? On the thread it says it supports only 4.1.x ROMS :S
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
And that thread is right.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Kshitij Agrawal:
I have a nandroid backup with S2E working.

If I do a restore of that backup will S2E work?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Yeah, it'll still be good.

Compatibility with CM 10.1 Pro/Nightly

I think you must have already tried the CM 10.1 Pro/Nightly ROM by Old Droid, does int2ext+ work with it? I'm currently using CM 10 Jellaxy and it works pretty fine.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
I tried the rom but I didn't use A2SD.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ashy.kamal95:
I learnt from the comments that both int2ext and amalrulz don't work and the device gets into a bootloop on flashing/copying the script :/ Does S2E increase internal memory too?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
All of these scripts do the same thing just differently. I only post the best here. Don't worry about it. Pick one of the 3. But IMO, go for INT2EXT+.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] K3vin71:
Guys! Try Link2sd it does the same job.. easily.. !
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
See here sir, I only post the best. Link2SD was the first A2SD I've ever tried and I hated it. It does NOT free up ANY space AT ALL. If it works for you, then that's fine. But for me, it was horrible.

The scripts on this thread work fine for anyone that tries them. I won't recommend things I'm not certain of.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Marc010:
When using int2ext+ is it better to move all apps to phone or to sd card (in the settings) ?

In both cases they are on the sd card of course (because of int2ext+) but when they´re on the phone (in the settings again) the phone don´t have to scan the sd card before you can use them. I prefer to move all apps to phone but i'm curious if that is the best solution. So if somebody know something about this please tell me :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
When you move the app to the sd, it frees up more space. The phone will scan the SD regardless because of the script. I don't really know how it frees up more space but that's how it is. I've been wondering that myself.

Thanks for the guide! My question is: What about the current Apps2SD data moved to SDCard? I'm puzzled because I see current data of apps' in /mnt/asec & my SDCard data in /mnt/sdcard/ ( or just /sdcard/ in other words).

1) When backing up the whole SDCard's data, will current Apps2SD data also be backed up? (I read certain times, to perform full backup of SDCard, it's better to use card reader than USB Storage through phone.. Will I be needing Card Reader here?)

2) I often reboot my phone in applying these twicks. The thing that irritates me most is, "Slow Boot Time". It takes at least 3 minutes which feels like 3 hours and I find it hard to stand it. What do you do to improve boot time?

Thanks again for this tutorial.

(PS: I certainly do understand stupidity of some questions which gets peeved us. I'll try to ask much less as I could. We all much appreciate your work here.)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mhaykheltan:
if ever i didn't like the new setup of my sdcard W/ EXT can i return it to the old one W/O EXT ?? just a question before i try this ^^
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Rushyang:
I believe full format of SDCard from any disk utility (in computer) should work to revert back.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mhaykheltan:
It only shows 7 GB frmatting it only cleans the 7 GB how can i restore it to 8GB??
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Lmfao you can never have the full 8GB. The micro SD takes some space in order to work. Just how 1TB hard drives take about 200MB+ to work. So you never have The full 1,024GB.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Yeah, you can erase the partition back. Just make sure to back up if you need to.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
The current one, being? It depends which one you're using. If you're using the stock one, then it won't work. It doesn't free up as much memory as what I did in the guide does. This method completely frees up your internal memory, other than the widgets you need installed internally in order for them to work.

You don't need an SD card reader, you can just connect your phone via usb, and copy everything in the SD to a folder in your pc. Doing that, I believe will also copy the app data that the phone was already using by storing to the sd which also will be moved automatically when you apply this guide.

Hehe, that booting time my friend, depends on everything you have installed on your phone. A perfect example is, if you have EVERYTHING installed internally, your phone will automatically boot as soon as you turn it back on. But since the phone takes time scanning the SD card before booting and everything is installed in the SD, you can already know that logically, will result in a longer scanning (booting) time. That's why every time you reboot, the icons look weird. That's because the phone hasn't scanned them and determined whether they're installed or not. So either way, that "slow boot" is a must every time you reboot your phone otherwise it will not work with everything in the sd card.

Any more questions? :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] mhaykheltan:
how to remove ext partition??? please help
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
In the same menu where you made the partition. Look for the option that says 'Wipe partition' or something.
