hey raw! here's a link to a video a friend recommended to me so i did it this way. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHsHiXDgSy4

thats why i got the lag i think.

-in root explorer, i copied the 3 folders in the /data folder.... app, dalvik-cache and data.

-copied them to the ext2 folder in the /data folder

then linked each one like he shows. long press "create link" then hit back to get in to the /data folder again and then clicked create link

if i can't "unlike these" from root explorer i'm probally goin to have to flash a backup then?

i figured that coping all these folders was going a little too far and might not work.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
With all due respect to your friend (and the guy who made the video who seems to have jacked the exact title of my thread in his video description) I would NOT recommend this. At all. Linking or mounting system information is asking for trouble. Again I can remove my sdcard entirely and my phone will still boot. No force closes. No issues whatsoever. Can you (or he) say the same? If not you're inviting lag into your launcher.

The only delay you should EVER see when doing this is longer loading times on video games. When the game loads it plays as normal. My music plays as normal.

If you're not going to follow what I recommend best of luck to you. I would suggest contacting your friend and asking him how he deals with lag?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] sandman121383:
Ya I thought he copied you that's why i though you would want to see that! I don't get why people make videos and not give credit to the source. How hard is it to post a link in the description to your thread and give you some props for helping everybody out!

i'm going by your method. the friend who seen that doesn't have an s4, it was merely a suggestion when he and i got to discussing the whole mounting and linking ideas....he found that video. I do my digging round on here, i always prefer to read 1st.

anyways thanks again for all your help and well everything. :good:

if i come across anyone else stealing your info i'll be sure to pm ya or something!

hey,i wanna ask about the solotion of my problem

i followed your step until finish, i created 2 partition from minitool in my PC, (my sd card is 16 gb), i divided about 14gb and 1 gb

my computer can detect my first partition that's contain the data like photo,music,etc (14gb partition)

but when i put the sd card into my phone, the blank sd card notification appear and it's show me to format the sd card

but the second partition exist when i checked it at link2sd APP

just for your info my phone is xperia l

can you solve my problem bro?

thanks be4 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Ramondel:
Did you do step 3 that says to create second partition and make it Primary? If so you would not be seeing your data folder on the first partion.

[MENTION=1274198]rawintellect[/MENTION] I'm using this method on my current setup. It's working great on MOAR v7.0.1 , with a 32GB SD Card :) .
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Spiricore:
EDIT: Done editing.

I've been having hell with this (as soon as I link everything in Link2SD and reboot I'm just spammed with FC's). I'll do my best to answer what I can until raw has a chance to get to it and debunks half of what I know. I'll strike out questions I have no answer to (or I'm wondering myself). I'll slowly go through your post and edit mine as I go so you can chip away at things. I have the same problem with massive, super-detailed posts and most people are like, "zOMG wall of text no thx". :highfive:

Please note that I use ROM Toolbox, but I have tinkered with TiBi. Also, please excuse my editing.

Hope this helps a bit, sorry I can't give you solid, concrete answers. I'm still learning myself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
You're getting FC errors because ext fat isn't quite supported by KT's kernel in 4.3. reformat your 2nd partition with fat32. You'll be fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Spiricore:
And there went the debunking! :laugh:

Ah, right. I tried that at one point but I was in the middle of an airport and something went weird. I can't recall precisely. I plan on trying it again. Thanks ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Spiricore:
I was checking out backup apps and I came across OBackup. It has sd-ext options. You may want to look into it. It may be a viable option for all users of L2SD and Co. :)

Wow I wasn't expecting such quick replies to such a long post. Thank you.

I'll go through them in the coming days when I get the time off outside work to do so, and will post back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tfhavel:
is there an alternative to KT, and why do you use it?

I'm doubly in debt to you since I'm running stock(ish) v2, and was about to give up on link2sd until I had finally got around to clicking the "HERE" in your detailed signature to see how you were doing it and so found you were also using link2sd. I carefully read your OP asking myself "why doesn't it work for me" until I got to the red "*** Force Close Errors" section, which finally explained it.

I must say, however, that I'm not too happy with having to make a new backup of my ext-sd, repartition/reformat it as all fat32, and give up on the (superior) ext4 filesystem. Why the heck doesn't a modern kernel like KT support it? And if it doesn't, why do you use it in stock(ish)? It would actually be easier (or at least quicker) to flash a new kernel that does support ext4, should you know of one that would work with the rest of stock(ish)!

Thanks again :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Quite simply because KT's kernel is the fastest out there with the best tunables. I know this because I currently hold the record in quadrant with a 14800 score. No one has beaten it. I'm a performance junkie. It's a small price to pay to run such a wonderful kernel. If you want you are free to flash any TW MK2 kernel (if there are any, I personally haven't even looked) that also supports exfat. I just think KT has overlooked exfat in TW because he runs ASOP roms on his phone, so they get the most attention from him.

Also I'm far from a kernel pro. So as I said in the OP I *THINK* it's the kernel. It may very well be link2sd and exfat with MK2. I just haven't bothered flashing a different kernel to test it.

Edit: I just looked quickly and Unknownforce has a modified stock MK2 kernel with exfat support. You can get it here.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Ophbalance:
Oy... so that's the step I was missing as well. I converted my second partition over to FAT32, and Bob's your uncle!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
I have a 32gb, used about 20 of it... so I would have to save the 20 something to my PC then followed your steps to make the 32sd card work as internal one, correct?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
you don't have to make your 2nd partition 10gb. You could make it 5 and be just fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
Oh sounds good... so that 32 once I partition it as long as i save it, then I would start from scratch > 25 and 5 on 2nd partition?

Thanks for the info
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Yes just follow my OP and all will be well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] DanM66:
Great Tools

Rawintellect is awesome.

I have a 32 GB SD and partitioned 30 and 2. 2 GB is enough for me for my apps and cleans up my internal storage nicely. The Link2SD recommendation is excellent as it moves more applications than the stock Samsung app.

FolderMount is a great way to move data. I use it for Co-Pilot which I use for navigation on my motorcycle and it is great to get the 2GB of maps off my internal storage.

Great write-up.

Free advertisement - Plus I use his stockish ROM which is great.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tfhavel:
for everyone's interest

Actually, it's pretty unlikely to be an issue with KT's support for ext# partitions, since everything on my SGS4 internal SD is ext4 and working fine (obviously -:). But I do confirm that making the second external partition vfat allows Link2SD to work again. Weird but true ...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
once quick questions before i proceed... before coming to your site, I have moved a couple of apps to sd card > so before i partition it, would it be safe to transfer those apps back to internal memory?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
Yes once again...please just follow my OP. I'll say this again...this has literally been used by THOUSANDS before you. It works. It's fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
Almost there.. up to the part where it says multiselect, now not all apk have an option to be moved (/system/app/SecMms.apk) just making sure

Thanks again for the valuable feedback
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
you cannot link system.apk files with link2sd.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
oh k... just needed to know > out 207 its moving 66

I guess the others are just system apk files
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] admmck81:
Folder Mount doesn't work on my s4. It keeps telling me there's a broken module and fixing it never works. Will this fix that?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
download the latest version of foldermount. getting that error ONCE is normal. after a reboot it should be fixed. if it persists contact the developer of foldermount. This is just a thread for setting it up. Not a support thread for the product itself.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
I've created a new entry based on #5, now moving on to #10 I need to create a new entry for each apk file being moved?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] rawintellect:
this doesn't say anything about apks. foldermount does not move apks. it moves data. yes you need ot create a new FOLDER for each folder you intend on mounting. foldermount can do this automatically for you.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
Yes thats what I meant, DATA... Ok will report back once I'm done, but good so far.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] juniorr7710:
Ok so I finishing movind apps/data.. this is the result, but for some reason unless I missed something it still shows Internal/SD Card having 3.14gb in used and 6.59gb free
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tfhavel:
oh no !!!

Sorry, but while link2sd worked for a while after reformatting the 2nd external partition as "vfat", at some point it decided it had to rebuild all ~350 dalvik caches during a reboot, and now absolutely everything that I've linked to the external SD card crashes on startup. They work fine when the links are removed and the app is reinstalled, then do NOT crash again on being relinked (at least, I would guess, until the next time I reboot and the dalvik's are rebuilt). I have no idea what's going on but I declare it must be the work of the devil himself !!!

I have this posted in the Apps & Games forum, but I'm looking more for constructive criticism from a coding standpoint here in the Software Development forum..

I'm sure some of you are familiar with the Bing Rewards system; it's simple, search with Bing, earn rewards points, redeem rewards points for gift cards, Xbox Live Microsoft Points, among many other things. Most commonly you are able to accumulate 15 points per day (in some cases 30), with 1 point being equivalent to 2 searches. This means you must do 30 Bing searches per day to get the maximum amount of points. But who has time to sit there and tediously search for 30 different things? That's where my app comes in.

I haven't found anything similar on a mobile phone. I know there are websites that do this for you, but if you aren't near a computer and want to bang out your 30 or so searches quickly, this is the app for you.

Be gentle, this is my first crack at an app! Although it is extremely simple I believe there is much to be done and updates will continue to roll out over the coming weeks.

Thanks guys! Any constructive criticism is appreciated

Hello

I recently sold my Galaxy Note and the person who I sold it to removed the stock software and put some other software on it. I don't know how to find out what software he put on. Now, I have the phone back, (long story) I want to go back to the original software. If I install Kies on my desktop PC and run a firmware update to the phone will it put it back to how it was when I bought it?

I don't care much for this software he's put on, perhaps it is better, but I don't do change much and would prefer to go back.

Thanks Simon

I am currently using the MOAR rom by NOOBZ, and love it except my phone reboots about 30 times a day.

listed. 1 with beats installed would be cool also.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Naddict:
Not enough info to assist you, what kernel did you flash? What audio mods have you flashed? Sounds to me like you want audio so I am curious what type of mods you have flashed following the rom and what kernel settings you have.

I suggest you boot into recovery, wipe dalvik, cache, factory/data and the flash the stock or optimized stock kernel and whatever mods via the aroma installer. And DO NOT flash or install anything else for a day or two.

Phones rebooting are 99.99% kernel related, the other .01% is bad phone or just plain bad karma related. :o

Ok you need two more posts and you can go to the development threads for some help. Even though you had several of the N00Bz team here already trying to help you.

Here is a simple question, if you did factory reset, wiped cache and dalvik. Do you use any back up program like Titanium Backup or anything else?

Also did you do this which you are instructed to do in the OP?

DISABLE FORCE GPU RENDERING

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] csmasn:
Factory Reset delete all User data also do a Cache/Dalvik wipe.

If you don't do System Wipe(yes just move your finger a little more) you are dirty flashing, wrong file over wrong file. In the MOAR thread there's many times which rompnit recommends clean install because changes in frameworks. But **** to read 1000+ posts.
