Thought that rom has the app. Anyway go to play store and download "terminal emulator" app then open the app and type

"su" and press enter and grant permission when window pops up. Then type

"a2sd install" press enter then type

"y" press enter then type

"n" press enter then type

"y" press enter and ur phone will reboot and that activates app 2 sd
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
First, let me tell you that you are being very helpfull. I would like to thank you for all your "fast" answers and explanations. After all, with your posts, i did what i coudn't reading others, so you are obviously a good teacher.

About terminal emulator, the ROM has the app indeed, but when i enter the app it appears to be some kind of msDOS line of comand type.

I type SU, it enters in some kind of root directory and there's nothing more i can do

(help) ;)

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
As helpful as jmcclue always is, remember the instructions tend to be provided in the first post...

In other words, after you type SU, keep typing...;)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
I did all that, last question on the screen was something like "will move all your apps to SD" - i type yes...

It was supposed to install another app on my phone? My phone looks the same

Thanks

I forgot bout the a2sd install bit. What a f noob lol, thanks.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
did not understand... was the ROM moved to sd card? i believe i have now more space available on internal mem.

Was this what was suppose to happen?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jmcclue:
No it doesnt install any new app, its just now when u download apps it will save them on that ext partition u made before instead of ur phones internal memory.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
Ah.. i believe i got it

one last question:

That happens when i download apps.

What about when i download them from PC and move it to SD card? I downloaded lots of apps and place them in m SD card (f:/SSSD .. something)

Although, when i install them (on the phone) and i run APP2SD some of theme were installed in Internal Memory and lots of them are tagged as not movable (and consuming internal space). Is there a way to prevent this?

Where should i put the .apk file so it wont install apps to my internal memory?

Thanks a lot

Cheers
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
So now assuming you have run the A2SD commands from terminal emulator successfully.

If you download an app from the Play Store, it should automatically get installed to the sd-ext.

If you paste an app apk onto your sd card, you still have to install it using a file browser. When it installs, it still should install the app automatically to sd-ext.

In both cases, apps sometimes get installed to the FAT32 partition of your sd card, as if it were old App2sd method like before you rooted.

In all cases keep apps on 'internal', do not move any apps manually to SD. (Do not click 'Move to SD' within app settings, make sure they are all 'Move to Phone')

Keeping the apps on internal tricks the apps apk and dalvik cache to sd-ext which is what you want.

To make things clearer, install something like 'DiskUsage' to browse all your partitions. You should see all your apps and dalvik cache on sd-ext. And only app data (e.g. saved game data) on your /data (internal memory) partition.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
hello

i have /sd-ext folder, but when i try to acess any folders inside SD-EXT it says i do not have permissions... (i have these folders: app, app-asec, app-private, dalvik-cache, lost-found and two other files (not folders): a2sd and .dc2sd)..

anyway is it possible to move internal apps to the SD card so i can free up even more internal memory?

thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
i installed another app (android zip root i guess) and i can now have access to sd-ext folder.

inside dalvik cache folder i have lots of files and also some inside app folder. Are these files deletable? to clean up some internal memory?

Is it possible for me, manually, to move the apps that are in internal memory?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
I still don't think you understand. You don't have to access sd-ext in any way or modify its contents. You've created it in order for things to be moved there automatically which is now the case as your A2SD script is working.

You have effectively 3 partitions to think about.

/data

This is what's reported as 'internal memory', it should read total 147MB or thereabouts as you are still on stock hboot. Currently, you should only have some app data such as saved game data on this partition.

sd-ext

You have moved the apps and dalvik cache to this partition. That's the whole point, to move them here so they don't take up space on /data. You can't delete dalvik cache as apps need it to run. Even if you deleted it, it won't free up 'internal memory' as it's not on your /data partition. You'll free up some space on sd-ext, but i'm certain pretty much all your apps will crash...

/system

This is where the ROM resides, also contains your system apps like launcher and Play Store. If these are the 'internal apps' you refer to, you shouldn't move them as many are required on the system partition to function. Even if you delete things from system or moved them to sd-ext, you won't create any more space (deleting/moving things from /system doesn't affect /data)

Like I've mentioned, please install 'DiskUsage' to browse all these partitions to understand them. Particularly you want to look at /data and how it fills up. If free space here gets low, you'll get low memory warnings. 147MB can still fill up with app data etc. if you install many apps.

If you want to truly free up your internal memory, you have to switch hboot with a smaller /system and hence larger /data, and install a compatible ROM.

Whichever setup you have, remember there is always an upper limit on how many apps you can install.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
I also have APP2SD app. I will install disk usage now and come back here.

But in appmanagerIII or app2sd, in that marker called "internal" (those apps which cannot be movable like googleplay) i have, not only google play and those kind of apps, but also many games that i downloaded in pc, moved them to SDDATA(H:/) and installed them in the phone.

They somehow went to internal memory..

Now i am installing diskusage...

OK...

first screen:

APP STORAGE

STORAGE CARD

[ROOT REQUIRED]

I enter "root required" and then " /data "

/data = 150.8mb

- data 60.7MB

- app-lib 18.3 Mb

- System data 13.0Mb

- Free space 55.7 MB

Do you understand what i mean? In app2sd i can see that i only have this percentage of free spce,,, somehow the apps i have installed went to internal memory and the were not suposed to..
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
- Uninstall APP2SD, you don't need it. Like I said you don't need to move any apps to sd.

- When you pasted app apks to the SDcard then click with a file browser to install them, they did not install to internal phone memory like I said before. (You now also have redundant game apks on the sdcard taking up FAT32 space so you can delete these ;) )

- Your apps have not installed to the /data internal memory partition at all. If they did, you would have a folder called /data/app which you don't. Zoom in on your /data partition further with diskusage. You hopefully shouldn't find any app apks

- Browse your sd-ext partition with the same app. You should hopefully see all your apps including your sideloaded games apks inside /sd-ext/app :good:

- You are expecting your /data partition to not fill up at all, this is not the case. It will still get used for app data and app libs which is why you see those folders. When you install another app, the app apk and its dalvik will automatically get moved to sd-ext. Your internal memory will still decrease as it generates app data, which goes to /data.

In short everything is working as it should. And as I said above, the limiting thing here is that you are on stock hboot as above. 150MB can still run out.

One thing you could try is to manually move some app data to sd-ext. Open Titanium Backup, and browse to a user app, long press it. There should be an option to 'Move app data to sd card' or similar. This will create and move the app data to another folder on your sd-ext, but it will become much slower to open.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andre32065:
Ok! everything is going as it should is what i wanted to hear/read! ;)

I am now able to move Facebook and other apps from internal to SD with titanium backup...

thanks a lot for your help

if any questions pop up, i will obviously feel free to come here and ask :D

Thanks for your explanation.

Cheers

André
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Just checking...

In Titanium did you use:

- 'Move to SD card'

- or 'Move app data to SD card'

If it's the first one, then you're still ignoring pretty much everything I've said :eek:

You do not need to move any apps to sd, they are not on your internal, but already on your sd-ext partition which is what you want.

Keeping apps on 'internal' is not actually your /data partition, they are tricked to sd-ext with the script.

- What you may have done by doing this is just move part of the app from the sd-ext where it's supposed to be, to the FAT32 partition...You're basically using the same app2sd function as before you rooted.

- You've gone through all this trouble rooting and creating the partition etc...if you use this 'Move to SD' option, you're not even using the partition any more, and you're basically not gaining anything.

(If you did the second option, you'll save a little space, but the app will become very slow to use)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bcaraway14:
The very first ROM I tried to flash was a version of CarbonRom. I was unsuccessful, as i got the installation aborted message. I then tried a couple of other lesser know ones, with the same luck. Lastly I tried CM 10.1, and with that, i had success. It was the only one that would work so far. Yesterday, I downloaded DU 4.2.2, and A new nightly version of Carbon (Specifically for my phone) With no luck of installation. Am i doing something wrong with these? Is there a different method of flashing i'm missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] snibe:
what is the procedure you take to install?

I usually go this route:

1) Boot into whatever recovery you have

2) Wipe Cache/Davlik

3) Install custom ROM

4) run a factory reset

5) Reboot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
I have Philz custom recovery which based on cwm version 6.0.3.7 which when you tap wipe data you will then have the option to clean install for new ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Bcaraway14:
Sorry for not replying earlier, i never got a notification. I'm using the most recent version of CWM. My usual order is :

1. Boot into recovery

2. Factory Reset

3. Clear Cache Partition

4. Wipe Dalvik

5. Format /system

6. Mount /system

7. Flash new ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
well we now have 3 custom recoveries to choose from I like the newer one since I can install a new ROM in fewer steps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] snibe:
i would do a factory reset after you flash your rom too, can't hurt.

of course on updating the same ROM, I only Wipe Cache/Davlik and that's it.

No Command Error

Hi,

I have Q700 stock rom and OTA Update installed.

From last few days the phone used to get hanged (touch screen not working) some times.

I used to remove the battery and restart and it would work again properly.

Yesterday when the phone again got hanged and i restarted, it says "No Command"

at this screen if i press again the power button, it goes in recovery mode with different options.

but only Down Arrow Key works here but not UP.

If i select any option like wipe data/factory reset, and press the power button, it again goes to the "No Command" screen instead of performing the desire action.

On restarting multiple times once in a while it boots correctly but the touch screen is not operating and too much lag on pressing the Power Button (to activate screen)

Can any one guide me to what to do next or exactly what is the problem?

Will be showing it to Xolo Care but have heard about poor customer service so not expecting much.

Also i have purchased the phone from eBay.

Thanks.
