+--------------------------------+

I WAS ABLE TO REACH THIS SIR. DOES THIS MEAN APP2SD IS INSTALLED ALREADY?

Don't worry, actually it does not fail. I also got the same message and I also thought it failed but when install all the apps and check using Minitool Partition Wizard and Linux Reader for windows, all my applications are installed into my card (see my previous post with screenshot).

The Explanation

If you look through the app2sd.sh script, command rm /etc/mount_sd.sh means remove/delete the mount_sd.sh file from /etc folder, since that file does not exist in the fresh install phone, it gives this error message but continue with other commands..

I WASN'T ABLE TO PROCEED WITH THESE COMMANDS.

rm /etc/mount_sd.sh ------------>>> SAYS ERROR ALREADY

mv /system/bin/sh /system/bin/sh_bak

cat /sdcard/sh.sh > /system/bin/sh

chmod 777 /system/bin/sh

busybox cp /sdcard/mount_sd.sh /etc/mount_sd.sh

TRIED INSTALLING APPS, DRAINS MY PHONE MEMORY...... DOESN'T INSTALL TO SD... HEHEHE...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
After install of app2sd many apps I install from market do not show icons and app text and then I try to open them I get a fc.

That's not so good, I can't use it and the pro has not so much mem for apps then I install all my apps I only have 10 mb left
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
It does but as said in first post there will be in /data/data a folder named appbak so you can mount sd card delete it and you get free mem
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
anyone having random reboots w their phone after App2SD?

it often happens to me after installing some apps...:(

my apps/games work fine...no problem installing App2SD either...

but some times my phone just goes on a boot loop...2 or 3x then it works normally again...

does anyone have the same issue?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] 252gt:
Can you help me ?

I'm in step 4

and sorry for my bad english
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] diabloss76:
reboot after app2sd

That was my original problem. After app2sd it kept rebooting. It went on a continues boot loop over and over again not just twice like yours. I had to flash my phone to get it working again. After flash im having trouble reinstalling my contacts and im scared of what will happen if i partition again using app2sd.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
use Sony Ericsson Sync for the contacts...and also if you check your gmail account, your contacts are saved there too...:p

in my case, the App2SD IS working...i just have random reboots every now and then...i just hope it doesn't get worse...

and i'm wondering, does anyone know if we can log these reboots so we can see what's wrong w the phone?:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
you have to find where you put the android sdk installation files and start adb from there.

for example:

your adb is found here

C:\android-sdk-windows

make sure you get this at the prompt

then type, cd tools

then run adb shell

hope that makes sense.:p
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] 252gt:
Thank you ozzy1212 for rapid post

but

I didn't get you

what do you mean by android sdk installation files ?

(do you mean app2sd2.1.zip files ? )
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
ok...just looked at the first post and the answers you need are right there!

download the adb.zip

and follow Step 4 properly:)
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] 252gt:
what I have done is :

1- Unzip adb.zip files and move them to a new folder named adb on my desktop

2- Unzip the app2sd2.1.zip and move the files to sd card

3-open cmd and type cd/adb ...etc

the result is the same ( nothing ) .... what's wrong ?!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
you should have this in your command prompt:

C:\Documents and Settings\<your username>\Desktop>

i'm not on a windows machine right now so i can't give you screenshots...

or try typing this:

cd Desktop

cd adb
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] 252gt:
Thank you very much my friend

I did some of it

and I reach this point

rm /etc/mount_sd.sh

mv /system/bin/sh /system/bin/sh_bak

cat /sdcard/sh.sh > /system/bin/sh

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] diabloss76:
OZZY1212 what is JIT?

I have android 2.1 installed

Why and How could I probably of gone wrong with Partitioning my MINI PRO.

Im trying again and im afraid it might all go wrong again.

This might be a silly question, but on the menu section of your partition description where you say enter the number 0 do I actually type it and press return?, even if it is there automatically? or do I just press return without entering 0?

I am asking because I went through this process before and my phone just kept rebooting, but never switched on properly after i completed this process.

I had to flash my phone to bring it back to life. This time I want to make sure it works properly. I dont want to go through the same thing again

This question is actually aimed for BEERIO WHO CREATED THIS POST I THINK

.

Or to anyone else who can give me an answer and also explain why it might of all gone wrong for me in the first place.

Another silly question using BEERIO method before point no 4. and command prompt:

do I unmount my SD card before connecting the usb cable?

when connecting my phone using usb cable which option do I choose on my phone to connect to PC?

Im asking because im really cautious this time i dont want anything to go wrong like last time
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] :
hello... i have a problem... i have rooted my phone, installed app2sd, but now the app i installed continue to go to internal memory... so... what i have to do to resolve that?

thanks
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
then you install app2sd they will be a backup of the apps you install in /data/appbak so you kan mount the sd card then the phone is on...

If not needed delete appbak in /data then the mem goes op again.....
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] --__LoRiS__--:
After the installation can i remove the installation files from memory card ?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] wolfilein:
yes it looks like the init.rcis resetting herslef on every boot

last try from me is tho delte the command mkdir witch is usen in the init.rc

and make a sh script with fil name mkdir that starts ap22sd if that isnt done yet
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] wolfilein:

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] shokmah:
I have not tested it yet, but I know that's and old version of app2SD made for TMobile G1, and they put a second init.rc script in /data which launch the sh script.

It seems after the /init.rc , the /data/init.rc is automaticaly launched

here is the tutorial http :// theunlockr. com/2009/06/21/how-to-save-apps-to-your-sd-card-on-the-g1/

after add app2sd phone don't reboot and all apps moved to sd

the problems

1- When you remove the external memory device does not recognize the memory again for introduction ?

2- When you restart the device, the phone re-run after the Sony Ericsson logo ?

i remove busybox and use better terminal emulator pro

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] knudsen81:
you need a file manager that can use superuser access, then you go to /data/ and delete appbak folder
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] morning_wood:
if you dont want to mess with apps2sd you can always move some of your bigger apps from /data/app to /system/app. I freed up 20mb doing this with apps I know I will keep.

did this with Rockplayer ( 5mb ) and a yahoo mail app

side effect of the yahoo app is now I recieve statusbar notifications when I get new mail ( it mysteriously began to autorun on boot ), which it did not do when installed to /data/app
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Marcus89:
Crashed phone

Hi guys, i tried this method maybe 6 times but everytime i had some sort of problems, so i had to use SEUpdate to repair my mini. I dont know what i have done wrong but once it was stuck on booting SE logo and fewtimes every apps which i had in folder data/apps (like astro and vending.apk) vanished and i couldnt find them.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] danniechua:
app2sd

Hi guys..after i did the app2sd on my x10 mini pro there quite some app i cant install like angry birds and most of the games..is it because i did something wrong anywhere?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
did you partition your sd card right?

how much space to you have in /data/app?

you can use Root Explorer to find out...

or Titanium Backup...

check the a2sd partition size...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
might be a problem w the sd card...

check w Titanium Backup or Root explorer...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] JeK87:
i have the same problem, i followed every step etc. but the result is the same.. i can't find vending.apk -_-
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
^can you guys post a screenshot of your CMD window?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Marcus89:
i won't do it again, cause it's pretty annoying to reinstall all my apps and etc., but everything seems ok, whent i work in cmd i got to adb shell, made su permision and start to run sh app2sd.sh, i had same results like everybody posted, so i think everthing is alright, so when mini had rebooted i checked it and every apps which i had in data/apps were gone. I had there only vending.apk, astro and titanium backup pro. It was all after clean install. So i just download astro from market to make Z4root working. I thought maybe its on the sdcard but i cant see it, so i tried to explore my ext2 partition, but it wass empty.

Btw. i made ext2 cca 350MB and some swap cca 100MB. Do you think it's all happend to me, cause it was to small????
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
swap? your kernel does not even support it.

I have installed app2sd more than 10 times (had to reflash due to other "experiments :D) and it worked flawlessly every single time!

Stick to the guide and you'll be ok.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] danniechua:
i did my partition with ubuntu 10 i think it maybe the app2sd is working but there are a lot app that i cant install...
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] saintfalcon:
OK,

since it's too much to read.

I have x10 mini pro and seem to be successfull to install App2SD.

my questions is

1. Is there any issue(s) regarding "unable to connect to 3G network"?

2. Why can't I install some of my apk? it said there's not enough space. Any solution regarding this matter?

3. -- haven't found anything to ask--yet :D

thanks in advance

these apk can't be installed *previously works fine* with "not enough space" error

- AngryBirds

- PocketLegend

- PocketGod

- MiniCompanions
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
that's normal...

try pushing them manually to /data/app/

copy and paste then fix the permissions thru root explorer.

reboot and they'll show up as installed programs.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
You can also try deleting

the content

of /data/appbak folder and /data/dalvik-cache and then reboot (it may take a bit longer, dont worry it is rebuilding dalvik).

After that you should never try removing sdcard when the device is on.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] saintfalcon:
Thanks ozzy, but let me confirm this to u (or the others)

1. copy apk to /data/app <-- phone mem rite?

2. "copy and paste then fix permission" <-- can u be more specified about this?

3. reboot -- ok, after point 2 is explained more detail, i'll reboot

DaRk_dOg, so it's ok to delete the /data/appbak? what was it used for?

thanks for replying
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] DaRk_dOg:
Yes it is.

/data/appbak is used as a backup, in case you forget and pull out your SD while your phone is on.

But if you are careful, dont hesitate, delete it and you will earn so much space!
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] danniechua:
sorry for asking a noob question.. i dont really understand what it means?

is there any guide? :(:confused:

one thing i can understand that is i have to manually install it into the phone but what about the apps in the market place that i cannot install?
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] Contrarian:
I did make swap work once on 1.6 (at least that's what swapper2 was telling me) but I didn't take any notes, so for the life of me I can't recall what permissions I changed and where. All can remember is that it involved installing busybox in xbin and running a partition in one of the mtblock's. If someone wants to stuff around they can try however I haven't had any succes.

Here's some links to chew on

[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] ozzy1212:
yes, in phone memory, using root explorer (or to be more particular, it is the ext2 partition)

fix permissions to look like this

long-press on the apk in root explorer then choose permissions.
[Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini] saintfalcon:
Thanks for the guide.

I'll try it after re-doing my sdcard.

If i have already install app2sd and then i want to change my sdcard with a bigger capacity one, what should i do?

Correct me if i'm wrong:

1. Un-install app2sd from adb, take out old sdcard

2. Prepare new sdcard, Copy needed files to new sdcard

3. Install sdcard like previous one

Is that correct? Thanks
