If you don't have dock sd card, then your 4gb is your fat32 and the other is your ext4. Seems right.
[Asus Transformer TF700] schidddy:
ok thx m8, so is there a posibility to get direct acsess to the internal 64gb memory with windows explorer? Because i want to put my music over there and some other stuff too.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
I afraid not. You only can do it using the OS on your device.

Just been through the process and things seem to have gone well. Everything is running super fast. Benchmarking gives some crazy results though :|

Installed this mod with a class 10 Sandisk 32 GB MicroSD, with very nice results. Random write is up to 1 MB/sec from .2, and the tablet (running CleanRom 3.03) is very peppy indeed.

Question - can I delete all folders from /data2, other than the media folder, since /data2 has been replaced by /data?

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:55 PM ----------

I think you must have fsync disabled to get those numbers, which do not show actual MicroSD values when sync is disabled.

Running cleanrom 3.0.4, very tempted to try this, but wanna be sure, as many has reported boot looping.

1. Can this be easily undone? If so, how?

2. If I do get boot loop, would restoring from twrp backup get me back?

Thanks in advance.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
If you do it right, you shoudn't have any bootlooping. To undo, just restore from twrp backup.
[Asus Transformer TF700] p0k3y:
Thanks, that's the reassurance that I need. I am going to follow your post #741 to backup and restore my Cleanrom 3.0.4 to Data2SD. And I plan to use gParted to build the SD...
[Asus Transformer TF700] p0k3y:
I got it to work and my pad is now much faster. Thanks! Definitely use GParted even though it's more hassle. Minitools messed up one of my Sandisk 32GB UHS-1 cards too. Good thing I can still get an exchange from Amazon. Other than that, for some reason, applying the Clemsyn 650 kernel would cause a boot loop. But if I stick to the stock kernel, then it works. May do more testing on that as the Clemsyn kernels worked fine before on 3.0.4.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You should use ClemsynUniversal_data2sd kernel, it should work best.
[Asus Transformer TF700] pmmusale:
Thanks for info.... I gave up with minitool earlier.... Will definitely try gparted now.
[Asus Transformer TF700] p0k3y:
I did try clemsynTFUniversal650GPUver7 kernel from the OP. I will try again though, as well as clemsynTFUniversalCyano650GPUFsyncver3 from OP. Thanks again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] RaMcHiPTech:
Hey dont send that guy back go into disk manager and find the disk and assign a letter to it, then you will be able to format it again.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
The kernel "clemsynTFUniversalCyano650GPUFsyncver3" is not for Cleanrom.
[Asus Transformer TF700] p0k3y:
I think I probably picked the wrong one the first one. clemsynTFUniversal650GPUver7 works for me now.

BTW, I am having the problem where the reboots when I hold down the power button, because I am on 3.0.4. Is there a fix for that other than flashing 3.0.3? Is there a workaround for shutting down the tablet? An app perhaps? I am going to look for one.

[EDIT] that was easy - found a free app called Shutdown Menu, does what I need, including rebooting to recovery. This might be better than wearing down the physical button.

Thanks.
[Asus Transformer TF700] mcall_r:
OK, I am very tempted to do this because of the very choppy performance of the GTA Vice City game on this tablet, despite being on CleanROM Inheritance 3.0.4.

Can anyone confirm that it improves the framerate in the game (due to reading game data faster from the external SD)
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
What class of sd card are you using?
[Asus Transformer TF700] stanglifemike:
Another option is the app Quick Boot. I've been using it for years and love it!! I'm also on CleanROM 3.0.4 and the app works perfect. I use the app on my Evo LTE too, and hand all previous Evos and Transformer tablets. App is awesome!!

CM 10.1

Someone asked this question but didn't get answer earlier so I want to ask this again.

Can we use back-up and restore method for CM 10.1 to utilize Data2SD fix?

1. Install CM 10.1.

2. Take backup

3. Flash mount2SD file.

4. Restore the backup

Will this work?
[Asus Transformer TF700] stanglifemike:
You also need to flash the appropriate data2sd file for your rom and appropriate kernel after restoring your backup and flashing the mount2sd file
[Asus Transformer TF700] p0k3y:
Already tried that - that disk is totally toast. Doesn't show up anywhere. Also tried other computers and cameras even. Gparted also doesn't see it. Probably a defective one. Amazon is great though - free exchange - they even pay for shipping. New one is already on its way to me.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
I don't think the lagginess has anything do to with Cleanrom or data2sd, but the game is not optimized correctly for tegra3. There are couple threads in this forum that some modification needed to make them run smoothly on the Infinity.
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
I just ordered a class 10 for this. I'm running CleanRom 3.0.3 with 3.0.4 patch. Do I need to downgrade back to .3 to use this?
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
I've used titanium backup for years. Will that work? Just put them in proper place, or will I need another type of utility?

I made a fresh installation of Cleanrom 3.0.4

1. data2sdpatch 3.0.3

2. cromi 3.0.3

3. patch 3.0.4

4. kernelpatch 1.20

It worked but the kernel patch has no effect. Im not able to change to any other kernel than 3.1.10.

I dont know how to fix this. Will there be a new version of the kernel patch? Any other way to use clemsyin?
[Asus Transformer TF700] gthirst:
This is the exact same problem I am running into after hours of trouble shooting. I would donate like crazy! Hahaha. Guess I'll be back to clean rom with no data2sd support now :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Use the clemsyn kernel in the original post here not from the kernel Installer 1.2
[Asus Transformer TF700] schidddy:
yes u are able to copy music and movies in the internal storage but remember two things: copying takes about hours because the internal storage is soo damn slow. The secound problem is that the internal storage is mounted to \sdcardi so that means all music and movie apps will look normally at at the sdcard and the internal storage but not in \sdcardi, that means most apps won't see any music/movies if u put them on \sdcardi. That also means u will only be able to access the internal storage with a file explorer that has root rights. The FileExplorer from Asus for example can not see anything internal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Sequential writing is quite fast, even on the internal storage.

Running CleanRom 3.0.4 will Linux or Ubuntu interface better with all tablet storage partitions? Internal, micro, sdcardi and such?

Can't Mount SDCard in CWM

After experimenting with this mod, I have attempted to "uninstall" it, but find I no longer can access the external SDCard in CWM. Here is what I did.

Booted to CWM (Touch 6.0.1.9)

Wipe data/Factory reset

Wipe Cache

Wipe Dalvik

Format /System

Flash Clean ROM Inheritance 3.03 from internal SDCard

Reboot, go through the initial setup

Boot to CWM

At this point, in CWM, if I try to install a zip file from sdcard, it is unable to access the contents of the sdcard, it just flashes and stays at the same menu.

If I choose install zip from internal sdcard, it does go to the internal sdcard, and the !microSD directory (which I think was created by the Data2DS mod) is still seen at the top of the directory list, although I of course cannot access it. But, I would have thought that this item would no longer be present after I "uninstalled" the Data2SD mod by flashing CleanROM.

If I try to mount /sdcard in CWM, I get an error message: "E: Can't mount /sdcard/"

How do I fix this so that I can backup and restore to the sdcard using CWM?

Thanks.

[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
Writing big files, you can easily write more than 10 MB/s. Doing small database updates, performance drops to less than 1 MB/s.

Good move. No more hassle with USB drivers - adb and fastboot just work. I also prefer using adb for moving files to and from the tablet, using a nice adb extfs script for Midnight Commander.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
Do I have to do anything special to get adb and fastboot on the Ubuntu OS? Or does it just work?
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
So, Ubuntu interfaces well? I think I'll d-load it tonight and dual it.

WOW! exciting new years Eve for me!
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
You need to install the Android SDK (or at least the binaries for adb and fastboot), of course. After that, it should just work.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
The reason I asked was I had read something about Ubuntu 12.0 had adb and fasstboot came preinstalled? It may have been the writers customized version.:)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
There is no Ubuntu 12.0 (there is no month 0), and the Android SDK tools are not preinstalled.
[Asus Transformer TF700] lartomar2002:
This is were I read about Ubuntu 12.0. I was wrong about it being preinstalled, it is in a repository that can be found in the Ubuntu app store. If it is not Unbuntu 12 he his talking about then pease forgive me. I am new to Ubuntu and just now learning my way around.

CleanROM 3.0.3 TF300T with UHS-1 Cards

I have finally gotten CleanRom 3.0.3 TF300T running with DATA2SD and UHS-1 Cards, with amazing results. I am using a 32gb UHS-1 SanDisk MicroSD

What you need:

CleanRom 3.0.3 Inheritance

data2sd for cleanrom 3.0.3 (cromi-3.0.3-data2sd.zip)

recovery mod (mount-data2sd.zip)

Untermensch's TF300T Kernel - Has support for DATA2SD and UHS-1 (TF300T.zip)

Clockwork Mod Recovery (I used CWM) OR TWRP

GParted (and a way to boot it) I used TUXBOOT (Boot by USB)

The installation is very simple if you have these components.

I was plugged into to AC, with no dock plugged in.

Formatting your MicroSD:

Open GParted. With no knowledge of Linux this is all still self explanatory.

In GParted- I formatted the first partition to 3gb Fat32

The second partition should be formatted to Ext4 filesystem. Flag it as BOOT. LABEL the partition as data2sd. Make it the remaining size of the MicroSD.

Your MicroSD is ready. Have all backups and flashable zips on the fat32 partition of the microsd.

Boot up your TF300T to recovery.

Here I did a complete wipe of the Tablet.

Install CleanRom 3.0.3

For the option I chose NO KERNEL. Nova Launcher, Play Store as only apps. I did not disable fsync.

After installation is complete, wipe the cache.

Flash data2sd for CleanRom

Wipe Cache

Flash TF300T.zip (unters kernel)

Wipe Cache

Flash Recovery Mod

Do a full factory reset

Boot into the rom. You should be good to go.

This should apply to any rom or recovery for the TF300T, but I'm good to go on this set up.

I will do benchmarks later as well. I should have taken them before doing Data2SD as well!

I wrote this because I spent hours trying to get multiple configurations to work, and none of the kernels in the first post were working. After using unter's kernel and labeling the ext4 partition as data2sd everything is perfect.

Thanks for that write up. I assume it also works with version 3.0.4 as that is what most people will be using?
[Asus Transformer TF700] gthirst:
I would assume so, but I stayed on 3.0.3 since I didn't need a built in reboot to recovery. I'm fine using Quick Boot.

I could do a back up and run the 3.0.4 patch later to see if it works.

Is development for the CM10 version dead? It's been ages since we've had an update and I'm considering going back to stock just to get the latest CM nightlies which have all the 4.2 goodies...
[Asus Transformer TF700] smalis:
Sorry for the bump, but does anyone have a suggestion for this issue? What am I missing?

Mistar Muffin?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Ok, we need to take couple steps to determine where we at with this issue. First turn off your device, the power on directly into cwm and see if you can access the card. If not woking, try to reflash cwm (I would prefer to use twrp, it's better for tf700).
[Asus Transformer TF700] smalis:
Thank you for the reply. I tried powering off and booting into CWM, with no luck. I then installed TWRP and tried the same, without success.

Out of desperation, I tried another microsd card, and it worked! WTF! This one is 16 GB FAT32, while the one that will not work is 32 GB FAT32.

Any idea as to why TWRP and CWM will not access the 32 GB card? That card works fine in Android as well as in Windows.

Also, why do you say TWRP better then CWM touch for the TF700?

Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Nebucatnetzer:
Any news on this? Would really like to see a CM10.1 version.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Should work on 32gb sdcard, it's odd, but try to reformat the card and I believe it should works as normal.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
I have been trying to install this without success. I get the following error:

E:error opening '/data/media'.

I am using a 32gb Sandisk mobile ultra card that I partitioned with the mini tool in windows. First I partitioned it as follow: first partition FAT32 32mb, second partition ext4 30gb (all the remaining space).

Then I thought that the first partition should be unformatted so I deleted the partition (unallocated space). Same result.

Any ideas?

When I connect the TF700 to the PC (as a media device) both the internal storage and the microsd show up in windows explorer, like the screenshot in the first page.
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You cannot use Minitool to format, you need to use Gparted. Download Gparted image, then burn the image to cd, then boot your pc using cd then use gparted to format your card.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
Hmmm, no CD drive in the pc. Any way I can run gparted in a VM or perhaps partition from a recovery or from android itself?

edit: downloading vmware player. Hopefully it will work in a VM.

Why wouldn't the partitioning with the mini tool work btw? seems to do the job fine
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
How about mount it to USB?? do you have usb stick?
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
not with me atm :(

just finished installing vmware player, trying that route for now
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
or install Ubuntu as dual boot on your pc or VM. Pretty simple, it installs just like a software and during boot up you have an option to choose boot to Windows or Ubuntu.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
Partitioning with gparted from VM now, first wiped all partitions, then created a fat32 primary one, 32mb (minimum allowed), then an ext4 primary with all available space.

Hope it works this time

---------- Post added at 01:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 AM ----------

Same error :(
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
You should give the fat32 about 4-5gb, this is very convinience to keep backups, rom/kernel during flashing once on data2sd.(trust me on this).
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
E:error opening '/data/media'

that's the exact error msg. Any ideas?

---------- Post added at 01:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 AM ----------

Good point (I will change the partitioning straight away actually(, but surely this is not the cause of the error now, right?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
1. Format micro sdcard with first partition fat32 with 4gb and the rest as second partion as ext4, both primary

2. Copy "mountdata2sd" and "Cleanrom_data2sd3.0.0" to the fat partition. Turn off you device

3. Insert micro sdcard then boot into twrp and do a full backup of your setup to the fat32 partition which label as external in twrp

4. while still in twrp, flash mountdata2sd, the do a restore from the backup.

5. Now flash Cleanrom_data2sd3.0.3, then reboot.

Done with all your previous setup is now on data2sd.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
Done the first part (5GB FAT32 partition), then the sd-card slot in the laptop couldn't see the card :(

So I thought I would just copy the files from within the tablet and move on, turned on the tablet and saw the following error msg:

"Encryption unsuccessful

Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your tablet is no longer available...

To resume using your tablet, you need to perform a factory rest. When you set up your tablet after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your Google Account."

And a button below that says: "Reset tablet".

Googling to see what to do...

Edit: without hitting the "reset tablet" button, I shut it down, then rebooted into recovery. Is it ok if I proceed with the other steps you suggested knowing of this "encryption unsuccessful" error?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
"encryption unsuccessfu" means the card is not format properly. Once created partion and format, did you hit "apply" on the top in Gparted? BTW when you format the fat32, your pc should able to see the card, at this time you can copy all the stuff over, once create the ext4, your pc will no longer can see the card. Also once you done with the second partition (ext4), right click on the partition and select "flag", then select "boot". This make the partion active.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
Yes. It took about 2 minutes to finish the process.

However, why would it matter? As far as the tablet is concerned, the sd card is not relevant (data2sd was not implemented yet). The message was displayed when the card was not in the tablet at all. If indeed it was referring to the sd card, does that mean that data2sd was partially (and unsuccessfully) enabled?

Anyway, I copied the files to the fat32 partition and doing a full backup in that partition as we speak. Just finished actually.

moving on the the next steps

same error message :(

error opening /data/media

---------- Post added at 03:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:09 AM ----------

OK, THIS was the thing missing. Now, mount-data2sd worked (no error anyway).

Now, restore, and then flash the cromi-3.0.3-data2sd?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Yes, once done restoring, flash cromi3.0.3 data2sd then reboot. BTW you're restoring cleanrom 3.0.3 right?
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
yes
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
To answer your question "The message was displayed when the card was not in the tablet at all. If indeed it was referring to the sd card, does that mean that data2sd was partially (and unsuccessfully) enabled?" Yes, you already enabled data2sd with a bad sdcard formatted.
[Asus Transformer TF700] airmark:
Yep, figured that. Restore and flash finished, rebooting, fingers crossed

---------- Post added at 03:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:26 AM ----------

OK, it worked :)

can't tell any difference in speed at the moment, but hopefully if i multitask a bit it will be better than before.

Thanks again!

Oh, btw, can i flash cromi 3.0.4 patch on top now? and in general how does it work with new updates? I guess I will have to flash the mount-data2sd first thing when i go into recovery, but other than that will i proceed as normal?
[Asus Transformer TF700] buhohitr:
Yes, mountdata2sd then flash 3.0.4. The rest proceed as normal.

I've been trying to get this modification to work with a brand new Samsung 32 GB microSDHC class 10 card on my (by now) unlocked Asus TF700T, but so far - unfortunately - without success. I'm running CleanROM 3.0.3 Inheritance (with the 3.0.4 patch), but I simply can't get past the "flash mount-data2sd" part. I keep getting the error message that '/data/media/ can't be opened.

I've made the first partition fat32 with 5 GB (holding two of my twrp backups and the flashable zips) and the second partition ext4 with 24 GB, both being primary and the latter only flagged with 'boot'. Please have a look at the screenshots below... (they're text only because I apparently can't post outside links as a new user)

could it be that the card does not work with data2sd? not all do
[Asus Transformer TF700] RaMcHiPTech:
Possibly, I just tried upgrading my data2sd card and bought a Samsung 64gb class 10 uhs-1 and I can get it to recognize a linux swap partition for swapper but it does not work for data2sd. Even worse, I was trying to use gparted and it doesn't recognize my usb sd card reader so I cannot test if it minitool on the 64gb. Otherwise the sd card is insanely fast and just using swapper and touchscreen tune I achieve 6600 scores on clemsyns without data2sd
