@ command prompt ( the part where u type such codes on pc )

Stuck at this part, :( ( ive followed the step by step method, still )

As the guide says, i input cd D:\adb ( my phone connected on CHARGE mode )

then, it goes like this..

D:\adb>

I type, adb shell..like this,

D:\adb>adb shell

This happen next..

*daemon not running. starting it now*

*daemon started successfully*

error: device not found <<<<<<< that is my problem ( dunno ?? )

Then, it returned like this again,

D:\abd>

And, i didn't get the " su " command thing nor the " # " ( like the next step says )

then i try typing " su " like this,

D:\adb>su

this message appears,

' su ' cannot recognize batch filename..etc, etc ( long error text )

As a result, failed to install app2sd on my x10 mini pro..BTW im a noob on cmd scripting, but im so eager to learn!!!

Can someone help me out?, did i missed somethin?..tnx in advance:)

Blue reboots to Purple ???

AAARRGHHH...!!! It was working perfectly for a few days, now I get the blue light and then at the end of the boot process it reboots itself and comes up with the purple light.

Have tried deleting Ext2 and recreating....no joy.

Have installed Busybox from the Market....no joy.

Have uninstalled and reinstalled App2sd but this didn't work AND it looks like it has wiped out my xRecovery too.

Anyone have a fix for this or know what order the App2sd and xRecovery installations should be done in? Thanks :confused:
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] orbak:
Yes, i did the rooting and the debugging mode, that allows the superuser to activate. but still i get the same error message, when im typing at cmd for scripting.

1) i used z4root for rooting, and astro for installing it (although, i got the application installer on my x10 mini pro )

2) turned on the debugging mode, and set the screen time out for 30mins (max). Also when i connect it to my PC i used the CHARGE mode only

I followed every step on the guide, and still im stuck at that part, where u input codes on cmd..:(

I manage to pass the cd D:\adb, but after i input D:\adb> adb shell, error would be like this,

error: device not found, then it will prompted again like this,

D:\adb> (i didnt get the '$' as the guide says..shame)

Having messed around for what seemed like all day and night, bricking, flashing, recovering, bricking, flashing, recovering

I have decided to remove apps2sd completely, it doesnt make a significant difference to the speed of the device, in my opinion. So i have removed it.

I did get it working but messed it up trying to find out if it was working and reinstalling all the apps.

I have to say the instructions on HOWto are some of the most confusing instructions I have come across. It does not make it clear on partitioning or certain errors that occur. For example it mentions nothing about a swap partition anywhere, my x10 would only carry out this mod if i had a swap partition yet there is no explanation on what this does and if you will need one or not.

I applaud the person that got this to work in the first place, far far cleverer than me, but the instructions could do with a little TLC to make this a little easier, again only my opinion. ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] orbak:
Dude, we got the same problem. I have tried so many times and i get stuck in the command dos part, where u input the codes (error : device not found or not recognized batch filename, etc ).

It probably is my fault trying to be lazy and remove all apps, I don't want to flash phone and re do everything so was trying to get it do work without all that.

Now being able to get this to run without flashing and removing everything would be ideal but I don't even know if it is possible?

I guess there is no way to perform this operation for the new X10 firmware as there is no way to root the phone.

please boot into recovery

please extract the attachment to the root of your sdcard

go to partition tools tools

before that i do the partition steps of primary-fat32 and 1.3G+ for ext2, copy app2sd.sh, sh.sh & mount_sd.sh into root sdcard, usb debugging connected. but i'm using class2 8G sdcard.

hey dude how do i get my apps to work cause they have been moved lol
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] androidfanboi:
...

No blinking red or green LEDs were noticed. the sd card is partitioned correctly. i followed exactly what your guide was. can you revert to the manual adb script so that if a line goes wrong i do not have to restart it to a never ending boot.

What i noticed failed on doing your auto script was that busybox was not found. it is however on the root of sd. try your own script on your device you will see the same.

I have had to reinstall a whole fresh copy of the rom through the update service to recover my device.

I would suggest no one tries this until this has been fixed

At Step 4 after i press Enter i get this message

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Tzatlacael:
I thought I had posted my problem here... it might have gotten deleted, anyways... I asked and followed instrutions in the thread of the rom I'm using, I made the partition, and flashed an Add-on they passed for that rom, gave some commands, and A2Ext are working fine right now, just remember to use su command before, other wise you'll get a "not permissons" error in the terminal.

Ask in your rom thread too.

After a2Ext is enabled, internal memory will decreade very very veeery little because of some cache or something, and they go straght to the partition even if it says its on internal, so do not move apps to SD, because they're already in partition you made.

Also becarefull about partitioning, BACK UP FAT32! if hadn't touched the FAT32 it would have saved me from an odessy trying to fix it, but if you need to for the Ext3 partition do it after done a back up.

I had to reformat my sd card to fix my problem, after that you loose your files and therefore all, update.zip and roms you downloaded and planned to flash. So after that you better don't wipe your data or system partition of the phone, in case of such case as it was mine, you can mount USB storage from ClockworkMod recovery, the option is in "partitions menu".

I thought somebody might need this kind of info I wish I had been told beforehand.

Can i make partitions while connecting sd card in phone via usb instead of card reader?

Thanks
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Tzatlacael:
*MAKE A BACKUP BEFORE PARTITIONING!

Why would you make a second primary Ext2??

You partitionate connecting phone via USB

Get into Clockwork Recovery

Select Partitions Menu

Select Mount USB Storage Drive

Alset! Now use whatever to partition, like Gparted, you'll need to unmount to resize, But keep Clockwork USB mode still, while you do your stuff on the PC.

After sucessful instalation > when reboot, sd card doesnt load...

Hi

I just need a little help here.

I've follow the step by step, 3 times and i get 3 times sucessfull instalation... blue led at the beginning... I've installed my apps from market and they go straight to the sd (cool...), however, when my battery drains out and i restart the phone, the phone goes crazy because when i try to start a app installed in the card: "Force Close" the app, for instance: i had Laucher pro and continuesly Force Close, Force Close...

It seems that couldn't load the app... however, the instalation was sucessful, i get blue led at the beginning...

What goes wrong?: maybe because I have a class 2 SD card? (i've already ordered a class 10, 32Gb...)

(sorry the bad english...) Thanks

from this http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning

it says:

*step 2: create FAT or FAT32 partition*

and

* step 3: create ext2 or ext3 or swap partition*

(Ext2 for App2sd)

should i do step 2 and step 3 or only 3?

Clockwork USB mode? is that USB debugging mode?

Thanks again
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] david.cretcheu:
You must do the both steps... with this you create two partitions (or three) in your micro SD Card: a FAT32 (or FAT) and a Ext2 (or swap)...

Clockwork mode? i don't know... you must check the USB debugging mode option in your phone...

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] kongmyy:
well does this method works when you already have apps installed?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Tzatlacael:
Yesssssssssssss, but you b better install them before you enable a2sd, or else they'll stay in internal memory, use Titanium Backup and backup your apps, so you restore then after.

By the way, after enabling a2sd you do not have to use "move to sd card" if you are in Froyo, after enabling it apps install directly to the partition, so leave then as if they were in internal memory.
