Take logcat just after the boot. Also send the output of below command

ls -R /system/priv-app
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
[MENTION=6726362]vickybonick[/MENTION] my SD card 8G as shown below but in another screen shot is only 430M how that?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Can you update the busybox binary and try again
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I'm on marshmallow which use toy box
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
OK. I'm working on including busybox in apps2sd. Also I'll add support for toybox in next version
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
OK waiting for you, but anything I can do now?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Don't think so. Try to install busybox if you can
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I don't know if busy box will conflict with toy box??

Or can I use Mini tool partition wizard?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Yes you can use minitool
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I did it before, make first partition FAT32 and the second EXT4.

But script can't mount second partition I don't know why?

So I thought I must use your tool?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
In that case use gparted. Mini tools doesn't work 100% of the time
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I install busy box and I use your tool partition.

I have this but second screen shot shows corrupt for second partition
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Select ext4 while creating mount script
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Yes I did
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Try with ext2
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Did you mean select ext2 or format it as ext2 ??
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
No while creating mount script
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Is this ordinary, I format it as ext4 ?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Did it work?
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
No, it still as it

I remount script, it success then I rebooted but second partition is corrupt as I show before.

Edit..

If I touch to fix it, it will delete second partition I think.

it happened with me before.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Use gparted then
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I remount script to ext4 because it ask me to do that and I tried to link MPlayer.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
So it worked?
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I know, but worked until this point.

But second partition is corrupt as it. also in title it shows initializing Apps2sd.!!?

Although,

this is first time I see second partition is mounted like this,

when I tried Apps2sd since before a week ago it shows not mounted?!

May be because I install busy box this time.

What I missed?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
It seems fine to me. Does the 2nd partition mount after reboot?
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Yes, i did reboot now and this is the result
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Looks fine to me
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
And this ?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
That is fine. You can ignore it
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Ok.i will try

Thanx for your patient.
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
[MENTION=6726362]vickybonick[/MENTION] may be 2nd partition is corrupt because two partition has same name? Or not problem?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
It's actually not corrupt, since there are two partition on sd card it thinks it's corrupt. If it was corrupt you wouldn't be able to access the sd card
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I don't know why didn't show app's used and free space.

I think when update next Nightlies Apps2sd and mount script will gone? That I can do then?
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
this my logcat:confused::crying:

unfortunately after i update my rom i have to install busy box again and recreate mount script

Edit:-

we need addon.d-script for busy box and mount script that will be automatically survive them after every ROM update
[Android Apps and Games] fillippe:
Hi Vicky and very big thanks for this app. Thank you also for your email response to my question about the purpose of the 2nd partition. I should have read the first post!

In the android settings - storage, there is an option to set the default write disk to either internal or external. Does it make a difference how this is set? Should it be internal or external for app2SD to work properly?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Any option is fine
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
I'm going to include a copy of busybox in next version. I'm not familiar with addon.d-script i'll look into it
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
thanx . because its very important for users who have nightlies updat.

this is example of my old addon.d-script for Link2sd;)
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Guys, anyone knows/has emulator with 64 bit rooted android image?
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
Is it really necessary to have a second partition on sdcard? Because I just wanted to bind the folders just like I did with foldermount in Android 5.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
You can disable the auto mount of 2nd partition setting and use Folder Mount module
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
I've tried to do that, everything went fine, but when I try to run the app it doesn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Attach the error
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
There's no error message. Everything is fine with App2SD, but when I try to run the app that I've linked before in App2SD (in folder mount module), the app doesn't work.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Disable the mount namespace separation option in SuperSu settings
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
Do I need to bind again after that?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
After you create the pair you need to turn it on. Disable the SuperSu setting, reboot and see if it works. If not then send me the logcat after the crash
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
It didn't work.

I'm facing the same problem as my friend Leandro (who has sent some screenshots to you with the same problem) and we are trying to make it work in Android 6.

How can I send a logcat to you? The problem is happening when I'm trying to run the game.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
In Apps2SD there is a module logcat. Then from menu you can email me
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
Here is the log: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1UFkhe4TVpKdmNFbGNtY2cwbUE/view?usp=sharing
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
What is the name of the game. Also you are on marshmallow?
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
Yes, I'm on Marshmallow.

The game is Castle of Illusion.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Can you clear the logcat(available in menu option) then open the game then capture the logcat and send me
[Android Apps and Games] Danilo-Sanchez:
Here you go: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1UFkhe4TVpKc3JNQUpPcnpIWkE/view?usp=sharing
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
I'll check and get back to you
[Android Apps and Games] bobl61:
First off, great work :) This is the only app I've tried that correctly mounts the second partition (tried the apps internal partitioning tool, and worked well) and enables me to link apps to the second partition on my new RCA 10 Viking Pro Tablet. My question is, I'm getting 'android is upgrading' whenever I reboot the device and the number of apps it's upgrading is the exact number of apps I linked to sd card. I'm assuming it's because relink on reboot is enabled. Is it necessary to relink on reboot?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
That message is from Android. On some ROM if you link Dex file Android recreates them on boot. I haven't found any workaround for this
[Android Apps and Games] bobl61:
What took you so long? :silly: No biggie. Just playing around with the SD Card Booster. Upping the cache a bit gave me a little write/read speed increase :good:
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Haha..
[Android Apps and Games] btb55:
I've noticed that most of my user apps have a 'broken' Link dex file. It reports, 'File/Directory exists on sdcard without any link to it'.

The apps in question are working I'm wondering if it's something I've done to cause this? To fix this I untick the checkbox and select OK.

Is there anything else I should be doing?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Is your device 64bit?
[Android Apps and Games] btb55:
Thanks for your reply.

Yes I believe it is 64 bit, phone is Huawei Honor7, (64-bit octa-core 2.2GHz Kirin 935 chipset).
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Excellent, I was looking for someone with 64bit. Send me an email
[Android Apps and Games] btb55:
Sent.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
How large should the 2nd partition be? What percentage of total space?
[Android Apps and Games] btb55:
On a 64GB card I made it 4GB and only have about 10% of that in use. I would say depends if you are going to link large data files or not and how many apps you are going to link. I've got plenty of system storage so no need to link many apps.

What size do others make it?
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
This is where I am now. Everything seems to be working except for the "corrupt sd card" messages and the "initializing Apps2sd" message. I just ignore these messages every time my phone is rebooted. It would be nice if these messages could be removed or suppressed. :cyclops:

Thanks [MENTION=6726362]vickybonick[/MENTION]!
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Unfortunately this message are annoying. I uninstall it.

Yesterday I tried again but I found my device didn't boot maybe one hour until I wiped everything [emoji27] [emoji27]
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Wow! I hope I have better luck. I don't usually reboot my device often when I'm running a relatively stable ROM so I hope I am not nagged by these messages too frequently. :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
I'm sure Apps2sd not stable with marshmallow for now, I hope fixed very soon
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
I did not realize I would no longer be able read my SD card when it is inserted directly into my computer. However, I am thankful I can still transfer files between my PC and the SD card when it is in the phone. Now, it is time to restore the files I backed up from the SD card. I'm crossing my fingers... :fingers-crossed:

Never mind... fixed problem. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] mellomilky:
I want to say thanks to vickybonick for creating this wonderful Apps2SD. It has been a great find for me!

As a thanks, below I've written know-how for increasing such marvelous experience as Apps2SD.

I. Apps2SD is best run with Class 10 SD card.

Class 10 SD card is

- better performs than lower class SD cards

- fixes softboot problem

- usually has bigger storage for your needs

Apps2SD runs smoothly on Class 10 SD card without a single problem.

II. If you have problem with reappearing deleted apps, then Just un-link before uninstalling

On your phone, open Apps2SD --> unlink the App that you wanna uninstall --> click Uninstall.

These steps will fix the issue with deleted (partially-linked) apps reappearing after a restart.

III. If you need help with partitioning SD card (preparing SD card for use with Apps2SD), then follow this link

Paste this in youtube /watch?v=UKIgu3wFc_Q

IV. If you want fix for softbooting, uncheck "Mount namespace separation"

Open SuperSu --> Settings --> Uncheck Mount namespace separation --> do Restart

This will fix needing to softboot everytime
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Anyone format the 2nd partition on your SD card as f2fs successfully or is ext4 preferred? I'm currently using ext4 with no problems but I was just curious since I formatted the internal memory on my phone as f2fs and seems to run very, very well.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
I just noticed these 2 options in Settings which eliminates 2 of 3 messages received on boot. If there is a way to suppress the bogus "sd card is corrupt" error, perfection will be upon us! :D
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
What is the best way to automatically put the same apps back on the SD card after clean flashing a new ROM?
[Android Apps and Games] drtechnology:

Click link. I get error on install. Did refund but will buy again once fixed. 5.1 lollipop galaxy note 4. Cool app free version works. I'd why won't install pro?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Use the broken app cleaner then wipe dalvik cache option in Apps2SD Free version. Then clear play store data and cache, uninstall Apps2SD Free version, reboot and try it will work

Unable to unlink bind created by Folder mount

Hi,

I tried creating folder mount for Whatsapp using Folder Mount function. However I think I messed up somewhere hence deleted the bind and tried again. Still No luck. Now by mistake my Microsd card has been linked to Whatsapp Media Folder. So All the folders in SD card are showing in Whatsapp Media Folder on Internal Memory. If I delete these folders they get recreated again. I am using Android 4.4.2. Kindly help how to sort out this issue...
[Android Apps and Games] drtechnology:
Worked like a charm :) Ur the best love the product!!!
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Great. Can you update the play store review
[Android Apps and Games] wonghyf:
On every boot, Apps2SD says my 2nd partition is not mounted and asks me to soft reboot. After I dismissthe warning and check with Apps2SD's storage info, the 2nd partition has actually been mounted, but the linked apps are missing. I really don't want to soft reboot every time. Is there any solution?
[Android Apps and Games] mellomilky:
I unchecked Mount space name separation and it worked for me!

Open SuperSU ---> Settings --> Uncheck "Mount space name separation" ---> after that Restart your phone
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Also make sure USB debugging is enabled in Developer tools
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
The third one is an android message, Apps2SD can't suppress it
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
You can unbind and delete the pair, it'll restore based on the pair settings
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Most of the things i've fixed in latest version (v7.3)
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Thanks for the writeup
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Can you try the latest version and verify.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
f2fs gives better performance than ext4 but it reserves some space.
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Yes, I understand. I can live with it. ;)

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

The 2nd partition didn't want to mount on boot when I used f2fs so now I'm using ext4 with no problems. Thanks for creating this invaluable app! :highfive:
[Android Apps and Games] ghadagerakesh:
Thats the problem I have already deleted the pair. But still it is showing folders from sd card in whatsapp media folder on internal storage. When I delete the folders they get recreated again.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
you can manually unmout it. Also make sure it is not showing up in below file

/system/etc/apps2sd-mountscript.sh
[Android Apps and Games] ghadagerakesh:
How to manually Unmount it?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
attach the output of

mount
[Android Apps and Games] kh34d:
Is this version realsed?
[Android Apps and Games] Moshiro:
Does it support any SD Card classes? Because as of now I am using Link2SD manually to link my apps to 2nd partition.

BUT the Data isn't linked because I am just using class 4 SD Card, but they said that if you use higher class of SD Card you will be able to linked Data folder to your 2nd partition.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Yes it supports all classes of sd card. Although if you have a lower class sd card, performance may decrease.

SD not recognized

Hello all,

I would like to say it is a great app, but for now I am unable to make it to work in my Samsung S5570i runnin custom ROMg GD 2.3.8 Hyperion X based in cyanmobile.

I have installed last version from market and every time I launch the app I receive all these errors:

- openning app: 2nd patition not found, recreate script or partition the SD

- recreating script: ERROR: 2nd partition not found

- Remounting 2nd partition: ERROR, 2nd partition file system couldot be determinedd:

- Trying to partition SD through app: No SD detected

I have tried EXT2, EXT3 and EXT4 without result. I have partitioned the SD through Mini Tool and CWM without result, I have enabled/disabled the SD automunt in ROM settings without result...

The 2nd partition is mounted, checked with Diskinfo, so that is not the problem. I can navigate through the SD with File Manager and ES FIle Explorer without problem, so the SD is running fine...

I have used a2sd, Link2SD, Int2EXT, etc with this mobile and ROM without problem and I would like to try your app, but for now it is impossible.

Can you ping me on hangouts, pm or email when you're available. I need you to run some commands on your device to get some info.

• Fixed obb linking function

• Fixed folder mount function

• Other bug fixes
[Android Apps and Games] Stevemann:
Hi Vicky,

Just installed you great app v2.4 and have latest busybox installed too. I have an Samsung S3 running rooted Note 4 Lite rom v4.1.1.

Tried using the inbuilt partitioning tool to create a 15GB Fat32 and a 14GB Ext4 on my 32GB SD card. It runs and creates the 15GB Fat32 ok but on reboot insists that a reboot is required. When I try to remount the 2nd partition I get an error: Mounting /dev/block/vold/179:66 on /data/sdext2 failed.

Please can you help fix this?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Hi Stevemann,

Can you clear Apps2sd data and partition again. Use F2FS for the 2nd partition this time.
[Android Apps and Games] Stevemann:
Hi, Did that. Now get: Error. sh: [322] /data/data/ in.co.pricealert.apps2sd/app.binary/mkfs.f2fs: can't execute: permission denied...
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
try below workaround.

1) Open partition tool

2) busybox chmod 755 -R /data/data/in.co.pricealert.apps2sd/app_binary

3) verify execute permission

4) go back to partition window(don't refresh)

5) create f2fs partition it should work
[Android Apps and Games] Stevemann:
Hi,

Tried that and updated the app as well - the app now has drwxrwxrwx. It executes. On reboot get error: Mounting /dev/block/vold/179:66 on /data/sdext2 failed. No such device....Not sure what next to try.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Can you send me the full output of below commands.

ls -l /dev/block

ls -l /dev/block/vold

fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk1

Hi,

Version 2.6 is released with the fix. Please update once it is available in play store. Also please write a review if you like the app.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Changelog

Version 2.6 - 2015-07-28

• Fixed Partition and mount script error on some devices

• Added support to partition sd card for devices with no internal sd card

• Fixed mount script to support devices with no internal sd card

• Fixed remount 2nd partition to support devices with no internal sd card
[Android Apps and Games] Stevemann:
Hi Vicky, I updated to v2.6 after uninstalling the older version. Then checked the partitions; both are reported correctly by Apps2SD. Rebooted. Got error: Mounting /dev/block/vold/179:50 on /data/sdext2 failed. No such device.

I've tried remounting > same error....

The difference seems to be that the vold block has changed from 179:66 to 179:50.
[Android Apps and Games] haplox:
Finally I can say it GREAT APP!!!!! :good:

I have installed 2.6 app and all the problems with previous version had desapeared.

- Munting SD-EXT fine

- Recognized all the apps installed with Link2SD

- All options working

- And... It si FREE, not like link2SD

Thanks vickybonick for this grat app, and for sharing it to all the android community for free :good::good:
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
There is something strange with your device. Normally the vold block is 179:66 but on your device it's 179:50. Changing the vold number didn't work too. Did you modify your vold.fstab file by any chance?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Glad that it's working now. Don't forget to leave a review on GP if you already haven't.

what are the source and destination folders you used?
[Android Apps and Games] wonghyf:
I did both, but the problem still exists. Strangely I can't find apps2sd's log file under /data/ after boot. Maybe there's some problem with init.d
[Android Apps and Games] ghadagerakesh:
I used Whatsapp Media Folder on Internal Memory as source and Used SD card as destination. I may have done something wrong. Thats what I am trying to figure what went wrong. Will Logcats help You get idea what I did wrong?

[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Other than the fact that this app is working on Marshmallow and Link2SD is not working yet, what are the differences between these two apps? Are they just different similar flavors like Pepsi and Coke?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Apps2SD is an all in all tool with more than 20 features while Link2SD has one/two features. Link2SD free version has limitations but Apps2SD free version doesn't
[Android Apps and Games] sjamie:
Thank you. Does Link2SD do anything that cannot be accomplished with Apps2SD? Is there any benefit to using both apps together?
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Not that I know of. Using both will have conflicts. Use only one of these two
[Android Apps and Games] wonghyf:
I tried without init.d. Still can't mount on first boot

Here's what the log file says:

Fri Feb 12 11:51:43 HKT 2016 mounting...

/data/sdext2

mount: Permission denied

mount: Permission denied
[Android Apps and Games] wonghyf:
Android 5.1.1
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
Can you manually edit the mount script and add su at the top
[Android Apps and Games] wonghyf:
I added su just above "count=0" and reboot

but still can't mount on first boot, and the log file shows the same result.

I think it's related to the way I rooted my phone. Previously I rooted with a custom boot image and apps2sd can mount on boot. But after I upgraded the stock ROM (and no more custom boot image) and used SuperSU systemless root, apps2sd can no longer mount on first boot.
[Android Apps and Games] vickybonick:
I think systemless root might me the cause
