Where did you get the SystemUI from? Send me the thread link please.

I would love to. Only problem is that no one has made a SystemUI where the notification bar disappears like serajr's 4.2 SystemUI and they'll be two clocks (one in the top right corner and the blue one). I can probably still do it though, if you don't mind two clocks.

Re: Xperia Z Framework Theme [V. 1.00]

If there is a SystemUI with QuickPanel for the XJ the images can be dragged and dropped. Otherwise, I don't know because I don't own an Xperia J and I don't know how to input QuickPanel from a stock SystemUI.

Someone asked me via PM but I'm still trying to figure out how to input it. I personally don't want a reboot to recovery option but if I can find out how to input it I will make it as an available option.

Search the forums, the JB apps are floating around. You can always download the system dump for everything if you can.

Re: [GUIDE] Partitioning your sd-card correctly

Very good :thumbup:

1 thing tho, regarding 5 and 6 using 4ext recovery.

5. Choose mb size for ext...ok

6. Skip swap...ok

In 4ext recovery, after choosing first partition size, it asks u to choose second partition size then swap size. So maybe should be...

5 - 512mb - 1.5gb

6 - Skip

7 - Skip

Done.

Very good guide tho, bout time someone wrote it. Good job :)

Thanks.

Weirdly enough, I partitioned an older 4 gb class 2 sd-card just to see step to step what happens, and 4 ext didn't ask for a second ext partition. Maybe the latest versions are this way.

Anyways, i made the modifications.
[Desire General] eddiehk6:
good stuff, very clear. should be made a sticky

few suggestions after also reading many Q&A threads:

- recommended size of partition

simply depends on how many apps users want to install, surprising how some users don't understand this.

- gparted section,

might as well link a video, always much easier to follow once you've seen it.

- using the ext partition

a lot of users expect their internal memory to read "internal + ext partition", when actually the partition is already in use without flashing any additional scripts. recommend first to check the ext partition is in use by installing various apps: diskusage, quick system info pro or titanium backup.

In many cases users won't have to 'use the move to sd' function, just keep apps on internal will trick apps to ext-partition. again this depends on the script, but can be checked as above.

when flashing different a2sd script, is it not necessary to delete the previous script first in /system/etc/init.d? not tried this myself but i would assume it may cause conflicts. definitely recommend nandroid backup and dalvik wipe before flashing any of these!

could also add a note to say that generally it is better to keep app data on the /data partition for stability and performance, unless they have fast sd card.

- add a "still getting low memory warning?" section?

use diskusage as suggested to check the partitions

make sure you are using the correct hboot for your rom (requires s-off), check the rom's system size using 7zip, or read each rom's OP or search within each thread for optimal hboot.

you may have too many apps, no matter which script you use there is still a limit. uninstall some apps you don't need ;)

these aren't anything major, just fine tuning if you want to include

Re: [GUIDE] Partitioning your sd-card correctly

Yh it says at the top just below the status bar, its very small so alot of people probably dont see/notice it. Like when u press to "remove all partitions and start from scratch" then u choose, lets say 1024, the next part press skip, but when u press skip the screen doesnt change apart from the wee writing at the top so some people think when they pressed skip nothing happend so they press skip again then it partitions sdcard. Hope that makes sense lol :D

And yh like eddie said it should be made a sticky or atleast u could ask Mr.Mefisto to add it to his everything desire guide.

Il add it to my sig anyway if thats ok with u?

[Desire General] eddiehk6:
one last thing i just spotted in gparted section steps 11 - 13:

just type free space following as the ext4 partition, briefly explain that ext4 is recommended as it should be slightly faster.

you can ask someone a bit more senior and with more knowledge to confirm, but i think you should remove the bit about swap, it's not necessary. It doesn't extend the memory in any way, in come cases can confuse the system. the custom rom would surely need a way to utilise swap, and most don't even bother afaik. you could in fact add a note to not include swap in case users were thinking about it.

another argument is that you instruct to skip swap in the 4ext recovery method, so should be consistent with gparted.
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Thanks for the observation.

[Desire General] jmcclue:
Hi, i took some screenshots of 4ext recovery while partitioning old sdcard. if u look at pic number 4 and 5 and look at the grey bar below status bar, it says "select a size for the first sd-ext partition" then on next pic it says "select a size for the 2nd sd-ext partition" then "select a size for the swap partition". Just thought id clear that up what i was on about yesterday :D anyway if u want u can use the pics for ur guide, just extract the zip file.

There's an option in 4ext recovery to convert ext3 to ext4. Try that.

MTP devices not recognized in Gparted

I'm running Linux Mint 17 and trying to partition my Samsung Reverb's 32 gig SD card in order to install apps to it. 4ext doesn't seem to support my device and gParted only shows my two internal HDs and my external Toshiba USB HD. I have installed mtp-tools and every other mtp-related program that might possibly help. No go -- gParted is still blind.

Try using an sd-card reader then.

The partitioning should work without setting a certain owner, from my experience.

Is my phone supported by this method at all?

Try flashing the 4ext recovery through the pb99img method (Check jmcclue's signature)
[Desire General] eddiehk6:
[MENTION=4346614]abaaaabbbb63[/MENTION]

I'm fairly certain 4EXT recovery is not compatible with the original HTC Wildfire at all.

Checked the 4EXT play store app page, and one of the threads:

[MENTION=4577482]jmcclue[/MENTION], I'm also fairly certain that you do have to be S-OFF to flash 4EXT recovery, so [MENTION=5383638]lilsafbig[/MENTION] was correct in a way. Just it's not compatible with that exact device.

[MENTION=5044390]digvoo[/MENTION] do not try to flash 4EXT recovery via fastboot. The app was correct when it told your device isn't compatible.

gparted should work just fine for Wildfire, I've done it before myself ages ago. Sdcard would mount and got an A2SD method working.

Try again to reformat and repartition from scratch. You might as well make at least a 1GB partition if you can spare the space, maximum ~2GB, no swap as you have done.

Not sure why it can't mount the sd card. Do you have a spare sdcard to test? Or possibly upgrade CWM?
[Desire General] digvoo:
I managed to solve the problem.

After another reformat and repartition with Gparted method (same entries as before), I've got sd card error notification and prompt msg to format sd card (system msg in ADW.Launcher).

After formatting I've got the access to sd card (mount), and used this method to do it right from scratch (with few adjustments).

Adjustments

:

1) Used 7.2 CM (buzz)

5) No swap, sd-ext size 512MB (2GB sd card)

10,11) Used Link2SD app (no need to move ALL apps to external, it's optional), and before choosing type of ext partition (in app), I've checked which is installed with recovery CWM v4.0.1.4 (using Gparted method).

It was FAT32 for 1. partition (flags: lba) and EXT3 for 2. (sd-ext) partition (no flags).

Maybe there was an error because of my type of sd card, dunno.

I hope this is the end of this problem and that I didn't screw something up this time.

Thank you all for your time.:good:

Yh with s-off u pretty much have full control over ur phone, flash radio, flash hboots etc. Unlocked bootloader u can only flash recovery.img so u can flash roms and u cant change hboots, so s-off for the desire atleast is the best option to get the best out of it. So all this really is pointless coz he has a htc wildfire and like eddie says gparted is the best/only option and he has sorted it via gparted. Happy days :)

Confused on using rom app

Hi all, glad to have seen this page, wonderful resource for anyone with a Desire that has such a small amount of memory. I was not crazy about following Andrea Grandi's page as I didn't want to use Dparted. This page gives you the option to use 4ext Recovery method which worked very nicely for me.

However I am confused about the whole rom/a2sd thing and although I read and re-read the instructions many times, I still can't make sense of how to flash my system. Allow me to elaborate:

HTC Desire, rooted, S-off, running cyanogenmod 7.2

I partitioned my brand new Kingston 16 gig class 10 micro sd card using 4ext Recovery method and all went well (think I chose 1.5 gig)

But the next step, using the rom is where I'm having problems with. The instructions aren't very detailed relating to this. You did such a wonderful job describing the step by step process to partition the card but skimped through the very important boot/rom/flashing part. Please put yourself in the shoes of someone that hasn't done this before and ask yourself if the instructions are detailed enough for a noobie to follow. Maybe I'm just not smart enough but there could be others, so please consider editing the first page and adding a bit more details to this critical step (maybe adding some links to the rom?).

Here's my question: I have 4ext Recovery. Will this flash my rom and tell the phone to install apps to the sd card or do I need to find a different rom elsewhere? In the instructions it says to see Rom thread but there's no link to it. In the list of things needed it says a rom with init.d scripts support but again, no link or a name of the rom is given. Then on the last step 'Using the Ext partition' it sounds like using Mount2sd to be an option but not the main choice? Confused.

After partitioning the sd card I tried to install a small app (24mb) from Google Play store and it said I don't have enough memory. So I suppose that I do need to flash the rom to complete the process but well, as seen above I'm a bit lost.

If you can please clarify my next step that'd be great.

Thanks for a (mostly) well written, detailed, concise page.
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Most ROMs have a2sd scripts integrated in them, which move your apps to your sd-card automatically. If they do, then the ROM thread should mention it. Well, that's not the case with Cyanogenmod 7.2. It doesn't have an a2sd script, so you'll need to add it yourself. I think the easiest method to do that is through the Mounts2sd app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spazedog.mounts2sd&hl=en

Install it on your cm7.2 and select the stuff you wanna move to your sd-card.

(I recommend dalvik cache and applications. Leave the data on internal for speed)

[MENTION=3340845]eddiehk6[/MENTION]

Oops, didn't know it was a wildfire. My bad.
[Desire General] Slakass:
Thanks

Thanks, that was easy. See, I didn't know you could d/l it from the Play store, that makes it so much easier and straight forward. Not sure why but the instructions made me think I had to move it to the sd card, install it from there and so on. Doing it via the Play store was a snap. Maybe this is something that should be mentioned in the instructions to make it easier for other users? Like I said above, the instructions on doing the rom flash are a bit too simplistic and for the noobies out there, it can become a roadblock, as was my case. Then again I'm not all that smart...

Proof: I did something before installing mount2sd that I hope you can clarify if it was a mistake. Having my 4 year old bugging me to get Bad Piggies back in the phone I rushed and installed Darktremor (mostly cause I found a page with easy-to-follow instructions). It seemed to have worked well and I think (although not sure) that it did install the a2sd script as I was able to install apps again. Hope I didn't mess up doing this, did I? Have you tried Darktremor before?

I took your advice (after seeing your reply here) and moved the Dalvik cache to the SD using mount2sd which worked great. I also installed Titanium and am able to see and manage things further. For instance I moved 40mb of data from Angry Birds Epic to the SD card using Titanium (and didn't notice a slowdown in the game, although I won't be moving that for more demanding games or other apps).

So far all seems good, I installed some 8 games via Play store, a couple of apps and my internal mem still shows 118mb left.

Thanks again for all the help you guys provide here. Really glad I found this thread.
[Desire General] abaaaabbbb63:
Sorry, this thread was made... a while ago. No mounts2sd app back then :D
