ok........

i know this is a question probably answers maybe years ago but i still dont understand app2sd....

in cyanogen settings-applicaion settings-install location-external still has them on the phone well just part of it

in the beatsmod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=866878

theres an app called froyo parts which automatically installs it on the sd card....but i clicked the optioned to move it to the sd card but then the app isnt even on my phone....

also widgets on the sd card dont work either...im just confused how this works

I HAVE THE EXT4 PARTITONS

PROBABLY A 1GB FOR SWAP SIZE AND THE OTHER ONE CANT REMEMBER RIGHT NOW

just trying to understand it so i can have the apps on my memory card and not the phone

i dont want an explanation of what it does, i just want to know how to do it because the way how you guys talk about it it sounds like there isnt even one app (not system app) on your phones
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
sorry, didn't get it...

thanks anyway!...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
most of yoshi's roms have the a2sd scrpit pre installed, messing with it in cyanogen settings from what I understand will cause it to FAIL... so don't mess with it...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
ok... back up everything on your memory card, while you answer this question... what recovery are you running ra or clockwork?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
ok, doing it now!

clockwork it is
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
alrighty, honestly I am not sure how to change ext in clockwork.... download this and change the extention from .zip to .img and copy to the root of you sd....

in terminal type: "su" without " wait for super user permissions

then type at the $ type "flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery.img
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Ok, downloading it.

But what am I going to do? What happens when I do that? Am I loosing my data?

...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
you will be installing ra recovery... when you format your sd card you will loose everything on it, that is why I said first to back it all up on your computer...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
you are on a 32b mytouch right?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Well, I don't know if I should... I'm used to clockwork, don't know how ra works...

the format part I got it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
HTC Magic 32b
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
then you are going to need to search for how to get an ext4 partition with clockwork... I don't know how sorry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Ok, thank you and sorry for your time
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
no problems, best of luck...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Anyone can help me out?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
do you have rom manager installed... aparently it is a menu option in the program...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
No, I have no rom manager installed...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
install it... it works with clockwork... there is an option to format and partition the sd card from what I read after using the search feature of the forum...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
ok, I'll try it out

thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atb1183:
hey guys, i opened up the gapps install zip (gapps-tiny-12272010 1.7.1 micro.zip) in winzip. Under /system/app, there IS NO Gmail or GTalk (talk.apk)

another word, lack of these apps are NOT due to noobs not having an ext4 partition set up as you've been point out. The zip was taken from the link in the OP.

I installed gmail from the market but Talk isnt on the market. help?

by the way, 1.8.1 continues to no work for me (yes, i got the ext4 partition. I know because im running 1.8 right now and it can see the ext part). FC at the signin screen and then black screen after that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok if you would have taking time to do your search a bit more you would see that gmail and gtalk have been moved to the rom and are not in the gapps zip

so do your searching a bit better next time ^__^

when you go to 1.8.1 are you doing a full wipe of system and your ext??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atb1183:
superwipe, then sd-ext wipe feature of Ra. then reboot, then flash rom, then gapps.

sry, I was thinking that since most rom moved gapps out of the rom, all google apps (incl gmail and talk) would be in the gapp package as well... thus i only looked through the gapps package.

i tried severeal flashes now, and read most if of the 130 or so pages about this rom. its just so odd that gmail and talk still not there for me. back to BeatMod

i like your rom, really, nice features like the toggle switches in the notification bar, overscroll, CM settings, etc

ill try back later when i got mroe time
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
its ok and iam sorry you are having this odd problem but next will be ginger so that should work just fine for you ^__^ if anything i will try and see what may be causing this problem for you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atb1183:
thanks for your work

one last thing before i reflash to another rom, i looked through your install2.sh and its making dir and copying stuffs to the sd-ext part.

however, all that i see in sd-ext is is dalvik-cache (using either root explorer and the terminal)

any way to see if that install2.sh script ran ok? or step it through?

any way to definitively check to see if my ext4 is setup right? it works for other roms AND this rom placed the dalvik-cache on there so its usable partition i think
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
the apps in the stuff folder get moved to the ext also if it is working with other roms then your ext should be fine unless you want to try to re partition your card again and see
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atb1183:
just wiped and now flashing another rom. i need a phone to use for now. will check back for gingerbread

small request, to help out noobs like me, can you put some ui output during the install2.sh to let us know if the partition is mounted right, if the stuff folder is copied, etc. or something else (im sure you have better ideas) to check and make sure that an ext4 part is available and the extra stuffs are copied over correctly
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok i will see what i can do to show that so everyone can dubble check
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
most noobs i have met wont check an output... it either works or it doesn't...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Pedunie:
Hi:

Is needed mandatory, use any Ext4 partition in HTC Magic to make this rom work?

Thanks.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
read the last 5 or so pages....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] atb1183:
just an idea to help noobs like myself that does read the outputs. would be good for beta testing as well to know where the failure is in the install process.

so far, most of the responses (except yohshua, thanks) have been to repart and wipe. but what if all that doesnt help AND the ext4 part works for other roms?

anyway, just a suggestion to yohshua for debugging purposes. a simple ui_output "mounting" would suffice to know that that part of the script ran. (i think thats the command). it's his rom, he has the final say
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
ya know I believe i have been doing this for sometime... and most, probably 90 - 95%, problems are caused by simple issues, such as not reading the first post... like the new spl/radio combination, or not setting up the ext4 partition, or not doing a full wipe, or not flashing your gapps... simple simple simple things that will make the whole process not worth it... so yes that will be the most dominate answer to issues because those are the 'usual suspects'... yes it is yoshi's rom, yes I support what he wishes to do, however, most people don't even read posts, so why in the world would they read an output... if you read them, figure out how to cook it in yourself.... it will save you time...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
trust me guys yoshi 2.3 gingerbread is worth waiting for ^_^

thanks to yoshi & team's hard work, they got running quite well!!

better then the CM i've seen..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
It is sweet ain't it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gcantu:
Great just rub it in. Lol j/k
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
all we need is to figure out how to get the app2sd working correctly...

plus did you get an insuffient memory error from downloading apps from the market??
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
No... dl facebook to try to integrate contacts... no issues
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
Dude from 110mb of total memory i constantly have 41mb of free memory which is freaking awesome!!

i usually get around 20mb of free memory and with quick system info task killer i get 40mb of free memory with the other roms lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
i need tot look into that killer, cause i use atk and i think it misses stuff, usually around 17-25 with everything installed....
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
what? really i have everything installed and im still at 40mb with 6 tasks running...

the full name of the app is quick system info pro, its free and very handy you can kill tasks when you pull down the status bar :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Yoshi Gingerbread???? Sign me up! :) Is it based on Cyanogenmod? Will it be reasonably stable?

Nice work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] zylent:
im also open for beta testing :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
Its stable.

No its not based on CM. It looks like the original software 2.3.1

Just wait till yoshi releases it trust me you will enjoy the final.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
Is the keyboard lagging for you?

Sent from yoshi's Gingerbread on Sapphire using XDA App
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
not enough to complain about...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
good i thought it was just me..
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
right now on 1.8.1 14.05 free, but i like this app, it tells me what I should not install... lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Nice! Thanks for the update.

Can I put in a little tiny request? The default Gingerbread theme and fonts are almost perfect, it would be nice to use the defaults for this new Gingerbread ROM.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
it will be stock theme dont worry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok here is an update for everyone that wants to know about 2.3

what works,

everything lol

wifi

bt

lights

cam/recording as welll

everything that you would expect to work is working

app2sd working as well and superuser also

now what is not working/work in progress

gmail dose not want to sync for some reason

fruit ninja dose not want to play but other 3d games work fine

fb contact sync dose not work

and thats really it

now over all everything is running great and smooth and goof news for 32a users as well this rom will work for 32b and 32a so everyone gets to enjoy ^__^

the only sad note is the amazing kernel is almost all the froyo yoshi build will not be in 2.3 because it is not compatible if there is some way to fix that then it will be added if not i will do my best to get a kernel just as good as it

but thats all i have for now any questions just leave a reply

also in terms of beta testing when this becomes an rc then yo guys can all enjoy as for now the ones that have it are the tester and thats it for the moment sorry
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Very interesting Yohshua, it sounds really good.

How is the speed and stability compared to 1.8.1? Are there any customization options similar to what Cyanogenmod has?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
speed feels on point with 1.8.1 and no cm parts yet i will see if they can be added also it is very stable ^__^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Great! Thanks for answering my questions so quickly.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
sure thing ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] butch87402:
so u telling me that when i install an app from the market it automatically goes to the sd card?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Pvt. Parts:
Sorry for the newbish question, but I just want to be sure.

The confusion I have is with the "new radio and spl" requirements for this ROM.

Here is my current fastboot info:

SAPPHIRE PVT 32B
HBOOT-1.33.0006 (SAPP30000)
CPLD-10
RADIO-2.22.19.26I

Based on this, can I install 1.8.1?

If not, what do I need to update?

Thanks in advance for any info.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
no the new radios are 2.22.27.08 and 2.22.28.25

there for the 1.8.1 will not work
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Pvt. Parts:
Thanks for the quick response.

How can I install a new radio in the safest way possible?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] blahbl4hblah:

I tried lots of yohshua's ROMs, the 1.8.1 is the only that didn't work for me, a black screen after first boot in syncronizing.

But I'm now with 1.8 pancake and everything works like a charm, I have 83MB Free/191M Total Memory after boot (Installed only a couple of progs yet)

The only two things that are a problem are that black menu's problem and can't get app2sd, but I didn't figured out yet out to put ext4 to work...

What does this mean?

This is not a ROM for me?

Yohshua, can you help me out? Does this mean I can't try Gingerbread when it's done?

thanks
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joskevic:
I'm running 1.8.1 perfectly on my Magic 32A. This is what i did for installing:

1. backup

2. ohsaka superwipe + reboot into recovery

3. flash yoshi 1.8.1 + reboot into recovery

4. flash gapps 1.7.1

5. flash 32A kernel (I used last ezterry's experimental one)

6. reboot + wait

I'm on 3.22.xx radio and sd-card is fat+ext3. The only thing I had to do, was adjusting clock and date colors for statusbar.

I believe Yohshua made an announcement some posts ago that yoshi gingerbread will run on both 32A and 32B phones, without flashing any kernel on top of it.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Thank you very much for your help.

I'll try to follow your steps and see how it goes. Downloading the files again from yohshua as I write (he recommended to download them again) and looking for ohsaka superwipe and last ezterry's.

The color in statusbar is easy, the problem is the settings menu. Maybe now it will work.

The fat-ext I didn't find the solution yet...

Thanks once again!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joskevic:
fat and ext you can achieve by correctly partionating your sd-card. This can also be done in recovery (partitioning menu) (or via rom manager I think), I think best before beginning the installation. You first have make a ext2-partition, then upgrade it to ext-3 and if you want (they say it's best for this rom, but I haven't done this step) upgrade that one to ext-4. The rest of the sd-card can be partitioned as a fat partition. Important is that you make a backup of your sd-card on your computer because all data will be wiped (including the files you want to flash) with partitioning.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Thank you!

I understand everything you say, just don't know how to...

make a ext2-partition - how is this done?

upgrade to ext-3 - how?

Know what I mean? Anyway, I'll get there one day :)

Thanks a lot for your hepl!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] Joskevic:
Last one completely going off topic: Install ROM Manager from market and you'll see "partition sd-card" in the menu. It's by far the easiest way.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxmyo:
if you have RA recovery then you would have partition sd option menu

which include

partition sd which will start a wizard guiding you through creating swap ext and fat partitions while you can decide the sizes of each one at its step

and then after you are done also in the partition sd menu you will find

ext2 to ext3

which will automatically do that and then

ext3 to ext4

also just choose and it will make it

but if you have clockwork recovery

go to market and download rom manager

you will have option in there to partition your sd card

ofcourse backup before doing that

you should be fine just by following on screen instructions

hope that clarify things for you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
I much prefer the ra recovery method myself...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxmyo:
well me too actually i love RA

hate rom manager rarely used it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
i play with it sometimes... the last couple times I played with it, it wiped my recovery completely had to reinstall ra...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] xitulofica:
Thanks for your help.

I'll try it!

Thanks for your help!

Thank you again :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxmyo:
well i kinda hate it because i hate automated operations i like to be involved to know exactly whats going on

but just letting preset commands to execute on its own is hard for me

even firerat's script i used to execute it manually

but with yoshi its getting easier everyday

he is a tremendous help for all of us
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
that he is, that he is...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
hey crazysohc, is your predictive text working on the ginger beta?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok i have what i think are the files to get cm parts into ginger but they are odex if anyone knows how to get them out of that any help would be good my pc is being evil and my app is not working thats why
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
only on certain words lol

but in other words yes it does not work correctly
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] sb56637:
Cool! Keep up the good work!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
did your contacts get tripled?

i have like 3 of every name in my contacts lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] gcantu:
That's happened to me before you can go to your contats in gmail to merge them
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
also ginger seems to like to build build up on a ton of cache.

i used cache cleaner NG like every two hours and damn it clean 6.6mb of cache everytime i cleaned it lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
gmail is not working quite yet on ginger so i have to bare with this lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
i do have some new news if iam not wrong i was able to add opengl 1.1 to ginger iam still tested to see if it worked out right iam gonna compair it with froyo yoshi 1.4 and see
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
oh man.

it will still be compatible with the new radio right?

wait duh of course the kernel port allows that.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
this has nothing to do with it running on new spl and radio and it will still run on them this is about graphics ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
o.o oopps my bad lol my head is clouded today lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
its all good ^__^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
ok so opengl 1.1 has been added to ginger and runs well so far still testing it thought
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
Nice ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
I am i cant wait for the final
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
update ok it would seam that i over looked something with opengl 1.1 it would seam it was implemented into ginger out the box but it was installed in a different place bt i still added its info to the build.prop to make sure it is being used but there is still a problem with quadrants test but that may be because of 3d still work in progress but games play so dont worry ^__^ over all the rom is still going great and app2sd is working fine as well ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
hopefully soon it will be out or at least the rc sooner ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] mmaiolo81:
I am down for beta testing...
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
i have sent you a PM
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vinamilk:
Same results (esp Linpack score). Maybe 1s more or less is the tolerance ;-)

I estimated but didn't measure lag time exactly by stopwatch.

I confirm this ROM runs flawless, every function is ok, no hang, no reboot, no force close. But, Magic 32B hardware is weak and lacking of RAM so it runs slowly (but "smooth" as you said). I mean "smooth" equals "flawless", not "speed".

Thanks for your effort and hope you release more version in the future.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
you may want to try the lite build of this rom and if anything i made one even smaller a micro build should have an even smaller footprint and be even faster you should give that one a shot
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] stlouie65:
If you need another tester, I'm willing
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] butch87402:
alright dev!

lite version people runs awesomely
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] vinamilk:
Continous Force Close last night (I don't remember which app, but among google apps - maybe), can't do anything with phone.

So I restored all apps with Titanium Backup (include Google Apps), phone runs smooth again. Linpack score 2.6x @595MHz.

Phone seems faster. But I guess that 2-3 days later, it becomes slow again.

So the solotion now for Speed is ... restore all apps from Titanium Backup.

Hihi
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
you do whatever you feel is best to get the most speed on your phone and if it works good ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] maxmyo:
congrats on the new rom

have u implemented the ad-hoc detection in any of them yet ?

thank you
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] butch87402:
heavy version?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
thank you and i will be making a new beta of froyo yoshi with it to see if it works

froyo yoshi super a.k.a heavy is still in beta testing

also 1.0 and 1.1 may be getting a black bar option for all of you that have been asking about it
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] AntonJart:
I like your Rom. Very fast! Used the heavy one. Gonna try now the lite version
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
iam glad to see you like it ^_^ also i think you mean the full one because the heavy one is not even out yet lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] butch87402:
Nice work yoshi lol waiting for that 'heavy' version hehe
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
dont worry soon it will be out just 3 things left for me to fix on it and then it should be ready

i should have a new beta for you soon
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
UPDATE gmail is now working again!!!! ^__^

next to fix fb contact sync and then see if cm parts can be added if not then there will be an RC out in 2 days or so or even in less time for everyone ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crazysohc:
sweetness ^_^
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] yohshua:
yes it is also i tryed cmparts but it is a bit of a no go i will try another way and if not then iam going to leave it alone for now and work on the fb sync
