not working on Galaxy Ace 2 JB

Hell-o!

I have Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 with stock ROM: I8160XXMG2 (JB)

Phone is rooted, init.d is enabled using Uni-Init: http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1933849

I have external SD card (32GB), which has 3 partitions:

- FAT32 (27GB)

- ext4 (4GB)

- swap (1GB)

I used mounst2sd 2.2.0 from Google Play (script version 5.5.0) and I have this problem:

- after installing and restarting the phone phone is stuck on Samsung logo and stays on this screen forever - I waited for about 30 minutes.

I have read, that after installing mounts2sd after 1st restart there is no copying - mounts2sd just checks everything. Copying is done after 2nd restart. Well - in my case 1st restart didn't end successfully.

Is this correct behavior? Should I wait longer? Or what is the problem?

Internal memory low

did everything as directed but still not able to increase internal storage, i tried installing heavy apps to check & they all gettin installed in internal storage & not sd-ext, now storage low message appears whenevr i try to install new apps...-__-

please help solve this, wil be really appreciated.

thanks.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] imvasishth777:
i've uploaded the screenshots , its a long list of screenshots for logs & config screen, so i made a zip, please check em & see if u can help me increase my internal memory,

thanks...:)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
Ya... it seems some kind of problem with kernel or your partition type.

Disable safe mode

Enable movement of dalvik cache and data along with app to SD ext.

Disable swap.

Wait for the first boot about 30 minutes.

Check the logs again, if it ain't working... and pm me.

Don't use oc kernel or oc partition type.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] imvasishth777:
ok, im really confused now, i've got a brain of a mosquito for this kinda stuff, So im completly formating my phone for fresh CM-10.1, kernel & recovery install, im gona do this from the scratch, please give me the appropriate kernal link to install, & recovery that is best for this, and tell me what type of partition i shud make(ext3, ext4, ext2, swap size etc etc) shud i do partition in recovery or pc( with minitools), ive got class 4 sandisk 16gb,..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] K55V:
Recovery - yannou's recovery is the most reliable

Kernel - not needed, it's included in the rom

Make the partition from the above recovery
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] imvasishth777:
but BleedingIris said its kernel problem, thats why ask for any better kernel, anyways thanks ill try it....:)

thanks that ^^^^ method worked, all apps moved to sd-ext, & got 158mb free storage & staying at 158mb after installing many apps, but have a look at this screenshot, internal storage still not showin 1gb(sd-ext size) istead its showing -507904 & 158mb, whats this , lol..:D

Problems making Mount2SD work

I am trying to install Mount2SD, I think I did everything right, but I still get the those messages in the log:

E "It was not possible to attach ´/dev/block/mmcblk0p2´ to ´/sd-ext´"

...

E "Storage threshold not changed. The Sqlite3 binary returns result code '139'!"

Therefore, I think I have the status external storage as not mounted.

I tried the fix Sqlite3 option, but nothing changed. I also have always 2 reboots, after the one I do I get a random reboot some seconds after the one I do.

I am almost sure that I have all the requirements to install this app.

Some ideas? I really would like to install this app, because it seems to do magic :), especially to phone with a small internal storage like mine (420MB)

Phone: Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i)

Kernel: extended Stock Kernel

Rom: Fluorescent Feather
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ig33508:
Solved

Ok, I get it....I found the issue.

I had my sd-ext partition formated as EXT4 and I suppose that my device does not support it. So I formatet it as with EXT3 and now everything works, but I sitll have at the end of the log the error message "Storage threshold not changed. The Sqlite3 binary returns result code '139'!".

Since it is working I do not worry about it. Even the random reboot does not happen anymore.

the mounts2sd.zip file couldn't installed on my device

Newbie NEED HELP!!!

The "mounts2sd.zip" file couldn't installed on my Acer Liquid e2 JB 4.2.2. After install it on recovery mode (CWM), the mounts2sd icon don't show in my device. Here, I have the init.d via "Universal Init.d" app, so i think that "mounts2sd.zip" could installed correctly but that wasn't. So what must I do? Direct install the .apk or....?

I have a galaxy XCover 2 (skomer) running Vanir AOSP Rom (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2689519)

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] -8-DEAMON-8-:
Hello

Im trying to use the Mounts 2SD app to utilize a EXT4 partition on my 32 GB sdcard. The first partition is a FAT32 (this is more windows friendly?) and the second one is the EXT4 partition of about 12GB.

In the Mounts 2SD app I have installed “Startup Script” (6.0.20).

But on "External" it says "Not Mounted". Hmm, should it be mounted there?

And when i reboot the phone the /data/ partitions still doesn't seems to be mounted in the EXT4-partition on the SDcard. Someone who know how i could do to use the EXT4-partition on the SDcard??

And if someone know it would be interesting to know exactly what partitions that one usally move to the EXT4-partiton on the SDcard. (The /cache/ and the "dalvik" for example?)

So you might have the same problems as i have?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] CMC_PUBLIKUM:

Thanks for your help but i don't need anymore. I was back to HTC Sensation only while my One was at the HTC assistance. :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sabaatworld:
Check out my post on installing d2ext. It ALWAYS works. Even on miui. Mount2sd flashable has some problem I think. I'll try to fix it ASAP
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sabaatworld:
This should work (not sure)

Get a root file explorer- goto system/etc/ and delete install_recovery.sh file. Before you delete this. Move your apps back to internal.

Then uninstall link2sd...

Then take a look at the d2ext tutorial mentioned in my signature. Install that and you're done.

I don't know the perfect way to remove link2sd script so if u can afford a clean rom installation, do that.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
For AOKP, all you have to do, after following the above tutorial, is to run the following commands..

1) m2sd safemode disable

2) m2sd rmount enable

And then, reboot once more..

And Voila!! You have Mount2SD working on AOKP..!!

And btw sabaatworld, there's nothing wrong with the zip.. So no need to change anything.. It works perfect!!

Working on AOKP build#4..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sabaatworld:
In any case, you may now download the updated/fixed zip file. I've just tested it on AOKP cm9.1. And one thing more.... Execute the other commands (better now than later) :D. Otherwise you won't be able to install a large number of apps.

And this has helped also on a HTC explorer with AOPK milestone 6 build #5.

Maybe this will also help for the originaly aroma script? Because there was also safemode enabled. Anyway this sould be added to the first topic!

And after enabling this function my homescreen symbols are gone, it recovers the start home screen ... but this doesn´t matter we can add them again.

Without this script an merory expanding the HTC explorer is really unusefull, but now it better than ever bevor, Many Thanks :good:

Edit:

Sorry but later on i have noticed that some apps crashes now. These are Facebook and Angrybirds. They have a Problem with this script. Any idea to solve this?

for angrybirds i can solve it by moving to sd, but with facebook this is not possible. What can i do for those apps? And why do the crash when the are in interal ram and not on sd?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sabaatworld:
Apps are crashing because of the combination of setting you are using for mounts2sd. For the system, it seems as if the app is installed. But the actual apk/data is missing.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] TVT73:
i don´t understand it. You mean i havn´t moved apk/data ? I followd your howto und lateron i also tried the aroma version again without changing anything.

You mean this is only an installation problem of mine, so normally the apk/data will be moved also to sd-ext? Should i better recovery my nandroid backup and restart the process again?

Can anyone specify how to move system apps to sd-ext with this script?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
simple...you just cut system files from system/app and put it in data/system(or SDext/system)...and reboot.

If you've got guts,

You can do it using es file explorer or root file explorer(enable root and mount system as rw))..

btw,you'll get a lot of force closes during the process and might but not necessarily fail if you move core system files.

A safe method will be to do it in recovery using recovery file manager aroma 1.8(totally cool manager)

Edit: sorry, the correct directory is SD ext/app system ok..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sabaatworld:
I would suggest that one should never move system apps using any app while the android is running for 1: It takes more time,2: You may encounter random problems.

:) Considering that you know what you are doing, I suggest that you use Aroma File Manager from recovery :o
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] BleedingIris:
Really safe suggestion, but I've tried this type of crude method..I've overwritten both system apk(don't remember the exact name) and framework. Apk while the Android is running on stock Rom (to get battery mod )...
