Ok, I will try this afternoon.

thank you!
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Same answer, did you set second partition ext4 to boot (active)??
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Do you have an actual case where this made a difference? The "active" flag is used by a DOS/Windows PC bootloader to identify the partition to boot from. It usually has no effect whatsoever on Linux.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Nope, I haven't try without, but I follow the direct instruction from the creator:(Mistar Muffin) Create two partitions, both of type "Primary" rather than "Logical" if given the choice. I also set the second partition as "Active". Format this second partition in ext4. It does not matter if the first partition is formatted or unformatted, or what size it is.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
You set them as Primary.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jimmynoos:
I dont see an option for active... All i see is a drop down for primary. Where is the active option? Btw, im usong the boot disc option on a windows pc.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mrjayviper:
and you'll never gonna see it using that tool. try another one.
[Asus Transformer TF700] jimmynoos:
Im using Gparted...
[Asus Transformer TF700] jimmynoos:
I have finally fixed my issue, thanks to everyone
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Nice, btw, to set a partition to active (called "boot" in gparted), right click on the partition and select flag, then select boot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Godswrath:
May I suggest you share what you did to fix your problem? It may help somebody else.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Aesrys:
Hey all. I'm fairly new to the TF300T, though I have been flashing other devices for a while. I have a question about Data2SD and the TF300T. From what I read, it appears the 300T isn't compatible with Data2SD. Is that correct? If not, are there any special issues or processes that I should be aware of to get it to work? I am trying to use CleanROM 2.7.2 deodexed. Thanks for any help.

how to modify newer kernels?

Just noticed a few people already asked this but I couldn't see any answers. There have been a few new kernels after the ones posted here. Is it possible for us to modify them to work with this mod or is it a complicated process.

Thanks for any replies.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Edhelmar:
Hello.

My tf700t is in CleanROM Inheritance 3.0.3 with Clemsyn 1.8ghz 700GPU 1400mv Kernel.

What is the patch to install data2sd (for keep cpu/gpu overclock) ?

thanks
[Asus Transformer TF700] fredofuchs:
I have tried the one for CleanROM 2.6 , but i got stuck in bootloops.

So if you want to be on the safe side (however, you will never be safe with data2sd :D ) , you should wait for a dedicated patch.
[Asus Transformer TF700] joe1l:
Mistar Muffin is there any chance you might be able to update the clemsyn overclock kernels for data2sd.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
That file worked fine for me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] primaleph:
A little help please...

I also had a pretty difficult time of it tonight, with both CleanRom 2.7.2 and 3.0.3 and the 2.6 patch. I couldn't seem to find the right version of Clemsyn's OC 1.5 - 1.8 kernel with the data2sd patch in it.

Also, the guide was a bit confusing re: which card I should put the zip file on when I want to install it. Seemingly if I put it on the card with the 2 partitions, where the 2nd one is ext4, CM recovery can't see it. So I've been running it from a different card, but I notice that it makes reference to making modifications to the ext4 file system on the card...

It seems the data2sd guide might be a little out of date. Some guidance would be really helpful... I'm a bit new to this and while I've been successful installing several different versions of CleanMod, I haven't been able to get Data2SD to work with any kernel without frequent reboots while copying data.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hohumhurrdurr:
Interesting. What'd you flash from? CR 3.0.3 -> Data2SD CR 2.6 -> Data2SD Kernel bootloops me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Edhelmar:
same thing here:confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmmusale:
Same here...was not able to get it even after multiple flashes.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mistar Muffin:
Been busy. Hacking kernels now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
OK, here is what I did. I first ran that mount data2sd file. This way the ROM will install directly to my sd card. I then Installed CR3.03 in the same TWRP session. I then installed the CD r.6 d2sd. All in the same session. Just do not factory reset after running mount data2sd though, else you will bootloop. Factory reset before mounting.

Partition filesystem

Hello all,

Just wondering what filesystem you guys have been using for the first partition. I know Fat32 can't take big files, and is not very secure, but NTFS is made for windows, has anyone noticed performance differences in android depending on filesystem type. I like to keep my apps and personal files seperate, I have typically put apps on internal storage and all personal/media files on the external. Now that the external storage is faster than the internal, would it be best to use the internal storage as little as possible? If the internal storage is significantly slower, i am considering partitioning the sd card into 3 seperate filesystems. I am considering making the initial partition Fat32 (compatibility reasons), the second partition ext4, and a third NTFS partition for big ass files like HD movies that will not fit on FAT32. Would a 3 partition setup screw up the data2sd patch? I have only partitioned drives into 2 filesystems in the past, yet i know it is possible in linux to get really partition happy, is android the same way?

Thanks,

Lucius
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
Also, do not install any other kernal. The ones in CR3.03 work fine.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
As in all the kernels in the CRI installer? No need to reflash kernel?
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Android is Linux, just better disguised. :) You can create up to 4 primary partitions on your card without further tricks. To mount the additional partition(s) you could write a small init script that runs at boot (the CleanROM kernels are usually init.d enabled).
[Asus Transformer TF700] psych2l:
Woohoo, I can finally update!
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
Noob question here. Could you not use a program like Handbrake to compress your large HD movie files so they could fit within the FAT32 parameters?
[Asus Transformer TF700] stanglifemike:
Cool, so no need to flash one of the kernels in the OP of this thread?
[Asus Transformer TF700] lucius.zen:
Sweet deal wasnt sure how to get that to work, I think im just going to make a small NTFS partition and ext4 on the microsd. I have no idea what an init script is, i really dont want to have to learn to write scripts or code lol

---------- Post added at 08:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 PM ----------

Good call, did not consider compression, i still wont be abe to download any files larger than 4Gb, just gonna make a 12Gb NTFS partition so i can torrent a couple lage files on the go.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Sorry, I thought we were in a development thread.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
Do that only if you like boot loops. Otherwise, re-read what I already said and do that.

---------- Post added at 06:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 PM ----------

You can if you are into boot loops. Really, why ask me to confirm what I said when my english is OK? I don't mind helping out but I don't like repeating.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Same here. I'm giving up for now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fredofuchs:
me2

No success with existing Data2SD CR 2.6
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
It should works, OK, let take one steop at a time. First do you have a twrp backup of your CR3.03? I will show you a quicker way to do this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fredofuchs:
yes, twrp backup exists.

i will now format the micro-sd card (once again, to be sure al is correct.)
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Thanks for your help in the CROMI thread. I do have a back up for 3.0.3. I'm reformating the ext4 partition to see if that makes a difference. I don't have a writeable CD at the moment so I cant do the other method of creating ext4 partition.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fredofuchs:
so far i used Gpartedto format the sd-card. But obviusly there is no way to mark the partition as "active".

Such "feature" seems to be windows-related (oh that sucks. using PCs since 20Years or more and still struggling between BillGates, Apple and Unix...:crying: ) ? Anyway, sd-card should be fine now....... waiting to be used :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Minitool allows you to set it active fyi.

Reformatting with minitool didnt seem to fix my intermittent reboot. Tried Cleanrom 2.6 inheretance data2sd, then after tried ClemseynTFuniversal650gpu data2sd, then lastly universal stockapp2sd. No difference.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kick4U:
cache location

Im wondering if this mod moves the cache to the external sd or keeps it on the device?

Thx
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
You have to fsck the partition if you formatted with minitool. If you don't, you will have errors and a very unstable system.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Yes, there is, once you done with ext4, right click on the ext4 partition, select "flag" option then select "boot", now it's active.

OK, if you have a backup. Here is to bring the entire setup to data2sd:

1. Insert your preformat dual partition setup (first partition,2gb fat32, second partition is ext4 and the size is the rest of the sdcard.

2. Boot into twrp

3. flash mountdata2sd zip

4. Select restore and restore your backup

5. Flash data2sd_ClemsynUniversal kernel.

6. Boot up your device. You should have the same exact setup as before, but on data2sd.

---------- Post added at 07:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 PM ----------

Should be on SDcard.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mistar Muffin:
CleanROM 3.0.3 patch is in the OP.
[Asus Transformer TF700] markerichanson:
Worked perfectly

Followed those directions and everything seems to be working just fine. Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Dang it. Still reboots and it didnt copy my existing backup to the micro sd card and was greeted with the welcome setup screen. I think fsck is in order. Can I do this with minitool? I don't see the options.

EDIT: Tried it again but didnt do a restore and it hasnt rebooted yet. Gonna try to restore my back up again. Hope this works so I dont have to reinstall everything over. Also should I be using the universal still or the new 3.0.3 data2sd since I'm on that rom?
[Asus Transformer TF700] huppe:
Thanks for your efforts.

Will there be a update for cm-10.1? Tried the newest cm-nighlty data2sd but couldn't get it to work. Not that big of a surprise since they moved to 4.2 . :( Did anyone get data2sd working with cm-10.1? (Previously had data2sd with cm10 so I don't think the problem is how I formatted my sd-card). Tried one more time. Wiped everything and did everything again still bootloop. Here is logcat ( I hope I didn't make any mistakes if so sorry for wasting your time) This was with cm-10-20121125-NIGHTLY-tf700t-data2sd.zip and cm-10.1-20121218-NIGHTLY-tf700t.zip
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Since you are not on 3.0.3 base Asus .23 JB you should use clemsynUniversal. Remember mountdata2sd, restore, flash data2sd3.0.3 then reboot.

Edit - NOT recommend to use mini tool. Mini tool will cause reboot down the road. Gparted is good and stable.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hohumhurrdurr:
This is a little puzzling and honestly slightly irritating because it refuses to work for me. I backup my CleanROM 3.0.3, factory reset, wipe internal storage, and wipe system for good measure. Install cromi-3.0.3-data2sd, restore my backup, install clemsynTFUniversal650GPUver7-data2sd. Boot loops.

Regardless of whether I'm wiping Cache + Dalvik after each install, boot loops. My microsd is formatted to fat32 and ext4 and worked previously on data2sd. If I can't figure out what's wrong, I guess I will reformat.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You are NOT following the direction. "Install cromi-3.0.3-data2sd, restore my backup, install clemsynTFUniversal650GPUver7-data2sd. Boot loops."

This is wrong, first you must flash (install) "MOUNTDATA2SD", then restore your backup, then flash clemsyndata2sd, then reboot.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hohumhurrdurr:
Crap, I kept thinking mountdata2sd was the cromdata2sd file. My bad for unnecessary stupidity and thanks for the heads-up.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
There is a new data2sd_CRI_3.0.3, you should give it a try.

1. Flash mountdata2s

2. Restore backup

3. Flash CRI3.0.3data2sd

4. Reboot. If you like Clemsyon kernel better, boot to TWRP, and just flash it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
I tried this also since i am on cromi 3.0.3. But still random reboot. I think its my card.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Slammin:
Go into twrp and use add shell to fsck

---------- Post added at 10:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------
[Asus Transformer TF700] joe1l:
Mistar Muffin, i know i have asked a few times but is there anyway you could please release a new clemsyn kernel for cyanogenmod 10. The current one you have posted doesn't load on sdcard.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hohumhurrdurr:
I got it to work after wiping my sdcard and putting a fresh install of CR 3.0.3. I suspect the culprit was a dirty install of 3.0.3 over past versions of CR (that had the bootloop problem) in the ext4 partition that I neglected to wipe completely. Once again, thanks for your help.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
I don't normally use twrp so not really sure where to executive this command.

---------- Post added at 09:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

Did you wipe via twrp?
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmmusale:
Mountdata2sd

It seems I have to flast mountdata2sd.zip first before flashing CROMI. Where can I find Mountdata2sd.zip file?
[Asus Transformer TF700] Hohumhurrdurr:
No. I used GParted to wipe all my partitions and data after moving my backups to my computer. I then reformatted and started with a fresh install of CleanROM 3.0.3. Not sure if my backup contains messed up data, but I didn't want to chance it.

Second post in the thread. I missed it too at first. http://d-h.st/pPe
[Asus Transformer TF700] Aesrys:
Still curious about this. Will Data2SD work with the Tf300t or is just for other versions? Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Mistar Muffin:
Someone pull the stock kernel (boot.blob) from a TF300 ROM and throw it up in your Dropbox. I'll tell you whether it's compatible.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Wiping partition now with minitool, and Sent ya a PM

EDIT: Wiped partition, factory wipe and system wiped and all is well. Now just gotta see if I can flash the clemsyn version on top without issue. Thanks for the tip!

EDIT2: Was able to flash clemsynTFUniversal650GPUver7 no issue. Again I'm on CROMI 3.0.3 rom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Kick4U:
cache partition

So the cache uses the same partition as data? Anyway of changing that? ( Keeping the cache on internal memory?)

Also was wondering if the sql patch had been applied to this mod?
[Asus Transformer TF700] noobwow:
I am a noob

If I want to install Data2SD is the following right?

1. Enter TWPR, Factory reset

2. Flash CROM 3.0.3

3. Use Gparted to format SD card in two partion. 2nd one set as boot via Manage Flag. (#1 = NTFS, #2 = ext4)

4. Flash data2sd 3.0.3

5. Reboot, see the new setup screen

6. Done

7. If want to do factory reset on sd card. download the recovery on the first page and flash it everytime enter the TWPR

Am I correct?
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Trying this now but everytime I flash mountdata2sd and try to restore my back up the back up doesnt show up in the list. So I reboot back to TWRP and backup is there again. Flash mountdata2sd and its gone again. It is in internal SD so maybe I need to move it over to external. Gonna try that.
[Asus Transformer TF700] fredofuchs:
haha, i exactly have the same problem. this is probably due to the changed links from internal to external ?

i already tried to copy the twrp folder from sdcard (internal) onto the 1st partition of MicroSD. But soehow the copy-task never succeeds.

:confused:
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
That's why I recommended everyone to format the first partition with fat32 for atleast 2gb, so you can store your backup and rom zip files. It makes life a lot easier.
[Asus Transformer TF700] noobwow:
Why no one reply me?????????????????????

By the way, I do the sept above and I found out the Google Play Music no longer able to access the music I uploaded on google.

I guess the apps is still on the old path. And I cannot find a way to reinstall this app

I say this because after I install data2sd, I check the storage in the setting and on 92MB of my microsd are used. after updating some apps like youtube/chrome. it shoot up to 200MB..

I guess I need to wait for the Google Music apps update to get it work normally

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------

OH, I solve the problem.

I just clear the cache and data of Google Music play App in setting

And now it works again

by the way, I use 32GB sandisk UHS-1. I do feel this thing fly like a rocket

no lag anymore
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Hey sorry to get to this late, but just for future reference, if any app is not working, the first thing is clear data for the app in settings-apps. If you want to uninstall system app, just use Titanium backup, go to "all" tab, then select Google play music and uninstall it.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
I actually only formatted half of my card to ext4. The other half still has fat32 and all my files untouched. I'm copying the back up into it now to see if it'll work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Don't copy the whole folder, just copy the content (backup files) to the TWRP folder on the sdcard, inside the twrp folder there is a ref number, tab on this ref and go all the way to where there actual backup files.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Interestingly my MC4 restore from Titanium doesnt work anymore. Says invalid license. I cleared cache and data and made sure there was no existing folder or files in data and gameloft folder associated with the game but still get the same error. Ironically this game is one of the reason I want to try this mod.

---------- Post added at 01:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------

I was successful in copying to the 1st partition. Just had to make more room. I only had like 1.7gb left in there but the back up was 2.37gb. I did create a "TWRP" folder in the 1st partition and copied the entire backup folder from the internal. So it still has its sub folders. Went to recovery and flashed mountdata2sd and then to restore and selected external SD and its there now.

EDIT: It worked! So now I'm just gonna use Directory Bind to bind the game data from the Asus internal 32gb to the new sdcardi so I dont have to redownload the data over and also so I can save space on my new sdcardi. Thanks guys for all the help. Couldnt have done it without you all!!!

Here's the link to directory bind

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1410262

I use this a lot on my 16gb s3 so I dont use up internal storage for high cap data games like gameloft, Glu, or EA games.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
If you don't have any twrp backup of your setup yet, first create the dual partition sdcard, then make a twrp backup of your current setup on the first partition (fat32) of your dual parition card. then follow this:

1. Insert your pre-format dual partition setup (first partition,2gb fat32 or more, second partition is ext4 and the size is the rest of the sdcard.

2. Boot into twrp

3. flash mountdata2sd zip (this will mount your internal memory to the sdcard).

4. Select restore and restore your backup

5. Flash data2sd_ClemsynUniversal kernel or data2sd_CRI_3.0.3rom.

6. Boot up your device. You should have the same exact setup as before, but on data2sd.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
With this mod I was able to restore my existing setup from a previous backup to sdcardi. My games and apps show up just as before. My question is do the games still look in the sdcard for the game data or now looks in the sdcardi? When I open up Nova 3 it now tells me I need to redownload the game data but when I look in both sdcard and sdcardi, both have the game data in it already.

EDIT: So I take it sdcardi is just a virtual of sdcard. I wonder why it still asks me to redownload data.

EDIT2: Ok so I see sdcard0 is what I need to link the sdcard or sdcardi data when using Directory Bind. Trying it now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Can you just copy the game data over to the new location?
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
I could but I only have 10gb space left and would like not waste the 32gb internal storage if I can. BTW which one is which? I have sdcard, sdcardi, sdcard internal. If I can tell which is I can probably bind them.

EDIT: Ok I got it. So I needed to Directory bind sdcard(new storage) to sdcardi(32gb asus storage). Tried it with Asphalt 7 and even though it said I need to download, I say YES and then it quickly said download complete and game opened. Sweet. And it did not use any of my ext4 storage space.

So if anyone is interested on doing this here's what I did.

1. Download Directory Bind and install it. Open it and allow root access.

2. Hit the menu button and (+) add new entry.

3. Source (data) should be sdcardi which is the asus 32gb internal. So press and hold on any of the field in the box and it will open up a directory selection window. Select the appropriate location of the game data (see example image).

4. Mount (target) should be sdcard which is the new storage. Press and hold on any of the field in the box and it will open up a directory selection here also. Select the location in the new storage. (see example image).

5. Click on Add

6. It will take you back to main Directory bind page and you should now see your new entry. Now hit menu again and do a Bind Check. If successful the icon will go from grey to green. Other colors, you did something wrong.

7. If successful back up your

Thats it. Now run the app and if it tells you need to download data, just hit Yes and it should just open up without download. Some games itll just opened up right away like Nova 3.

Example image

Sorry didnt mean to hijack the thread. Will post a new thread in the general section about this.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
As far as android OS goes, it only see sdcard, so now with data2sd, sdcard is no longer internal but microsdcard partition 2. While you are in the OS, you should not see sdcard internal, so my question is where did you see the sdcard internal??

You probably refered to internal while using file manager? if yes then it's the same as sdcard.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
sdcard internal I found under /mnt

But it looks like sdcard internal is the same as sdcardi.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
To verify which one is which, you just need to download an app let say goomanager, after installed the app, check the sdcard int, sdcardi and sdcard to see which one goomanager installed on.
[Asus Transformer TF700] aznmode:
Thank you. I believe sdcard is the ext4 partition and sdcardi is the asus internal sd. I've also confirmed this by binding them in directory bind and games open without downloading data again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Give you a +1 on nicely done with directory binding.
