Link2SD - Issues from Xperia pro not on Photon Q?

Hi,

on my Sony Xperiy Pro (Android 2.3.4) I used Link2SD for a long time - until I had to reboot the phone some times.

After each rebooting, a lot of important apps were missing, and everything was a big mess. It took me 2 days to get it working again - until the next reboot.

Finally I found out:

Link2SD did a great job with linking DEX-files and apk-files to the third partition. That worked great.

But when rebooting the phone, some weird services of android (or: Sony?) did a kind of cleanup:

All .dex files were created freshly on the small internal partition. Each time this took about 10 to 15 minutes - until this partition run out of space. Then this process seems to have been stopped and the rest of the apps were missing. This problem could not be solved by a simple relinking in Link2SD... :(

So my question is:

Can I use Link2SD on my Photon Q without having to care for enough space for dex-files on the internal partition? I'm using the original Motorola Android 4.1.2.

Thank you.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ZenInsight:
I have a 64Gb card. I put 15Gb on the side as a second primary Fat32 partition. I have been doing this for 6 months. No issues. A couple times some force closes occurred for a bunch of apps, but a reboot solved it. This app is the only way I have enough space to install everything I want and some games here or there as well.

CM10.2

Is there anyways to get this working on CM10.2? I'm having trouble.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] arrrghhh:
You need to be using the "unofficial" Skrilax builds. The official ones do not have this feature.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ruvokian:
I am using his build. I go to advanced settings, use external storage. It prompts me to reboot then it's the same. Does my card need be formated in a particular way?

Edit: Nevermind I guess it is working. Just not the way I expected.

Is there a way to modify partition sizes? Or a way to turn off emulated storage and only have the External SD card present? I've noticed the way vold.fstab works has changed in 4.3
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] Benni:):
Could you please explain how it is working - as I'm wondering whether it was doing anything
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] ruvokian:
All the appdata/camera/etc saves to the external sdcard instead of the internal. Apps will search that directory by default instead of internal.

It's bugged for me. It will work for 5 minutes then the sdcard will dismount. Are there any alternatives?
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
I haven't tried this yet, but I believe should be a cleaner solution, than swapping the mountpoints.

# setup the global environment
export PATH /sbin:/vendor/bin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH /vendor/lib:/system/lib
export ANDROID_BOOTLOGO 1
export ANDROID_ROOT /system
export ANDROID_ASSETS /system/app
export ANDROID_DATA /data
[COLOR="DarkRed"] [B] export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /mnt/external1[/B][/COLOR]
export ASEC_MOUNTPOINT /mnt/asec
export LOOP_MOUNTPOINT /mnt/obb

This is from init.rc, I believe that swapping the values on the red lines should be enough to do the trick.

The bad news is that this comes from boot.img and not from the /system partition so modding it requires to properly unpack and repack the boot image.
[Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE] The Solutor:
Ok.

I did it.

Indeed looks like a better solution, at least for stock ICS, i guess it should work in JB too taking in account the different storage names

It works editing init.rc this way

from

[COLOR="Red"]
export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /mnt/external1[/COLOR]

to

[COLOR="SeaGreen"]
export SECONDARY_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard
export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/external1[/COLOR]

And it works, this way too, with the secondary storage variable completely disabled (maybe less confusing for users and some applications)

# export SECONDARY_STORAGE /mnt/sdcard
[COLOR="SeaGreen"] export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/external1[/COLOR]

I edited the this line too

from

# Backwards Compat - XXX: Going away in G*
[COLOR="Red"] symlink /mnt/sdcard /sdcard[/COLOR]

to

# Backwards Compat - XXX: Going away in G*
[COLOR="SeaGreen"] symlink /mnt/external1 /sdcard[/COLOR]

This way the /sdcard directory will be linked to /mnt/external1 wich can be useful for some older apps, not aware of the newer conventions, say IGO8

Using this way the phone still works as expected, the phisical SD will be mounted as /mnt/external1 as usual, but all application (maybe with some exceptions) will use the real SD for the big data, including the stock applications, like the camera, the bluetooth file transfer and so on.

The unmount SD menu still works, and there isn't any annoying (and wrong) message about low space on SDcard, as happens using the OP solution.

The SDcard emulation can be either enabled or disabled using the build.prop line mentioned on the OP.

If you disable it you will see /mnt/sdcard empty and 0 byte sized, but the apps (at least the ones I tried) will still work as expected.

I modded also the very first lines of init.goldfish.rc

not sure if they are really needed, but this way everything works

on early-init
[COLOR="SeaGreen"]export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/external1
mkdir /mnt/external1 0000 system system[/COLOR]
mkdir /mnt/sdcard 0000 system system

For the record I used the dsixda's Android Kitchen to unpack and repack the boot.img that made the process pretty easy.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Schoat333:
That's odd, do you have any mods or customization's?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] izink:
Yeah, probably should have mentioned that, I have...

-Remove E911 icom

-Added Wifi, WiFi hot spot and Air gesture toggle

-Removed ongoing Wifi notification

-Xposed mod to have all apps in multi window

-Free Wifi tether

-4 menu reboot

I also have stock rooted odex rom
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Schoat333:
Your best bet is going to be to try and remove those mods one by one, and see what fixes it.

I had this on the bottom when I was adjusting the 3minit settings. I just unapplied the settings then reapplied but it didn't happen again.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] JorgeAnzola:
Would it fit? I saw a cheap Galaxy Tab 2 screen protector but I don't know if it would fit. I think it would.

I searched a few tab 2 image and it almost exactly as my Note 10.1

Had someone try this?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] kcrudup:
Nope. I'd bought one when I first got my Note and overlaid it first to see; had to return it.

Honestly, we've got Gorilla Glass and I would worry about the SP affecting the SPen; I've been nude screen for nearly 6 mos and it's still flawless.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] JorgeAnzola:
No, yeah, I trust in Gorilla Glass but I love matte feeling of the antiglare SP. :(
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] xm41907:
I'm using this and it works well. The anti-glare doesn't fuzz the image too much, and it feels like writing on paper if you switch the spen tip to the all white one.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] JorgeAnzola:
The problem is that I live in Venezuela, and here is not easy to find that SP, I found the Tab 2 screenprotect, that's why I expected to fit.

I'd have to buy it on Amazon and wait for it to be delivered. :eek:

P.S. I didnt know that the S-Pen tip would make I difference, I don't even know how to replace it... I'm so gonna try it. :laugh:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] JorgeAnzola:
Do you know what's the difference between both tips? The white one and the black one
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] xm41907:
I don't know what the differences are, but I like the white one better. I switched to it within a day or so, and haven't looked back. It might feel similar with the default tip, but I haven't tried it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] Jooni:
This is so old I don't even know if this will be any use to you.

I have both of these tablets, and they have the same screen, almost as if the same exact faceplate was used. You can use either type of screen protector On either device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Accessories] JorgeAnzola:
Thanks!

Actually, it helped. I had forgotten my doubt and never solved it. Thanks! I would buy a Tab because I can't find one for my Note :D

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
Everytime I try and install any Aroma installer, i can get though all the menu's, making all selections, but then once I click to actually start the installation, the phone screen just goes black, and the phone reboots, without the installation having completed. Which is quite an annoyance seeing as most installers are Aroma for the HTC One!

I have tried multiple recoveries (TWRP, CWM, CWM touch) all have the same error. I temporarily solved it for 1 install, by reflasing the boot image of my ROM (trickdroid 7.0)

No idea what has caused this, does anyone have a clue how to fix it? That doesn't involve a complete wipe?

Also, using volume keys makes no difference on this, only prevents crashing during menus

first i would say dont have your phone plugged in while flashing and second make sure your phone is cool not hot. seems to get worse for me when the phone gets hot. also there is a new sense rom that doesnt use aroma its called rayglobe 4.0
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
Phone wasn't plugged in, and the issue i'm having it with now is the kernel, I have the ROM installed, problem didn't start until a day or so after the rom install. Can't tell what started it
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
are you wiping davlik and cache before flashing that will also help and you might want to try fastboot erase cache
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
Just tried that, same error after fastboot cache wipe aswell as davlik cache. So frustrated, only just got a HTC one, usually a nexus guy, and never had experience with Aroma before this, not a good first impression of Aroma
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
yea its an aroma issue not phone or rom issue. have you used all in one toolkit to fastboot erase cache and install recovery
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
I'm on mac, so it would require Parallels, so I just type them out to save the hassle. I'm manually installing the kernel now, flashing boot.img in fastboot and pushing all the extras via ADB but I'd still like to figure out whats up with my phone and Aroma. It's not like the zips are faulty, its every single aroma installer, so something on my phone must be up
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
yea maybe. every once and a while aroma gives me a lot of issues but most of the time it only takes 1-3 times to install. but if you get tired of it give rayglobe a try i think its pretty good
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
I'm not overexaggerating when I say I've tried this about 20 times. Going for a full wipe, back to RUU and see if that solves all this
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] skinsfanbdh:
ive had that also i just restored my backup and quit for the day then tried the next day and it worked
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rambo12345:
try with re-downloading the file and put it in root of your sd card
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
tried that as well, tried all kinds of different directories, and redownloading the files, but files that did work and I have installed now wont, so i have no clue whats happened
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nolimit78:
Are you touching the screen at all? Like even the slightest touch? I know that in the ARHD thread it mentioned that's an issue and will cause problems. I know that I accidentally touched it and messed everything up for me. I am now super careful when I flash to make sure I touch nothing except the buttons.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
Okay, in a weird turn of events, I thought i would rather than going to an RUU just wipe everything and reinstall everything, and the Aroma installers for the ROM and tweaks are working so far...

EVERYTHING WORKED! Dont know whether it was the wipe, just luck, installing using only volume keys and power button. But this seems to have gone away :fingers-crossed:
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dh2311:
I could well be... have some working now, but if one breaks, Ill try reinstalling using volume keys and power button and never touch the screen

I own a Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013, it is rooted but I still use the stock ROM. I've been doing some tests to see if Link2SD would solve my storage problem. During these tests I noticed that all the big games I linked to the 2 partition of my SD card aren't really linked, as they still are inside the internal storage!!! After that I also noticed in the storage info that I have an external SD card, a SD card second partition and a SD card strangely similar in size to my internal storage!!!! (image attached to help undestand) Can someone explain this to me and possibly give me a solution!!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pathuri97:
No Problem with LINK2SD!!!

I'm using LINK2SD and I don't have any problems.

In fact I have close to 370+ apps (user) and except ENCRYPTED apps (~8) all are in EXT SDCARD 2nd partition.

It is TRUE whenever I'm flashing a NEW ROM - I don't see all those 360+ apps because 2nd partition is not mounted yet (because of new flash).

When I click LINK2SD it again re-creates mount scripts and I have all the apps again.

So far so good.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PedroJGT:
What I'm saying is that whenever I move a big game like Real Racing 3, Link2SD only moves a couple of MB's that are in the internal memory to the SD card's 2 partition, the 1GB of game data stays in the internal SD card!!! My space problem is a result of many games in my note, so I need to move the game data to the SD card!!
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PsycloneTW:
I'm a new Galaxy Note 10.1 GT-N8013 owner and need a few pointers on using link2sd. I installed it and understand that since our tablets don't support Apps2Sd natively that we have to move the relevant files to their respective locations onto the 2nd(exFat) partition of the SD card. I understand this however I am not sure how to do it since the tablet can't see this second partition(at least mine can't). If I go to Settings->Storage I can only see my main 16GB internal storage and the 1st(Fat32) partition on the sdcard. No other file managers allow me to see this 2nd partition on the sdcard either. With that in mind, how do I access this 2nd partition to move the linked files to the sdcard?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] natkingcole:
Dudes, you need to understand, that Link2SD and app2sd DON'T move the big app (game) data from the /mnt/sdcard0/Android folder to your external SD. It only moves the app itself. It was always this case, so I'm wondering about the hype unless you don't have a small app partition.

You have to use Directory Bind or FolderMount for moving big files to external SD. Or simply swap external SD with internal storage.
