Has anyone found any apps that this works with or do we need to wait for all the devs to come out with new versions? All i checked wouldn't allow me to move them.
Unrooted by the way.

Every app has to be updated by the author. No way around it.
If your rooted you can just switch the toggle to 2 and all the apps can be moved over to sd and new apps install there by defaut. I'm not a real app whore having maybe 50 more or less but still, they are every last one on the sd.
No problem thankyou. Just making sure I was not doing anything wrong with it lol.

Try searching im almost positive that there is a tut on it but, You need to install the Android SDK and create a connection to your device with the sdk.
You can then run the ADB command from terminal(mac OSX) or CMD(windows)

i switched setInstallLocation to 2 but if i try to move an app to the sd card or install anything from the market my phone just restarts.
anyone else having this problem?
i installed the ota from .zip directly over cyanogen 5.0.6 no wipe
sdcard is formatted fat32/ext3/swap
any help appreciated.
Is there an easy way to find out which of the currently installed apps have been updated to support FroYo's apps2sd?
There has to be a better way than to open Manage applications, sort by size and then click on on each app..

Had this problem a while back. A wipe was required before it worked correctly.
There is also my modded spare parts that let's you choose where to force install app, without having to go through adb

There's a free app on the market called "App 2 SD", it shows all apps that can be moved and moves them for you (that should be all of them
Visit this link from your phone or use Chrome-to-phone if you used the shell command above) if you're cool like that:
App2SD
[EDIT] Having the App 2 SD app running after using the command above will crash the apps!
yeah if you want to spend ages compiling
Well we finally have root and as of now some of the apps arnt working for me heres a list of whats working and whats not
SUFBS - the file browsing seems to be fine, tried deleting a system apk and nothing, wouldnt work. Terminal app works but say permission denied for some reason. su enter works fine
Wifi tether- The experimental version arnt working at all something isnt writing, the nexus stable version and connects and no force close but there is no connection. Hope this gets a fix soon
Adfree- fails to replace host error message blank.. tried it again and it rebooted phone.

*Edit: What does spareparts do? where are you taking it from? I'm really looking foward to compcache and swap again
You can get spare parts from the market but it doesnt need root access. SOme of the newer ROMS, for the G1 atleast, had a spareparts where you could configure swap and cc. I dont know if thats the one he got working.

I also tried the the meltus volume hack and that doesn't appear to increase the volume even after allowing SU. Now as for the live wall papers I installed a couple from the market and they all show up under the adw launcher without me pushing the files through.

I'm happy to hear that CacheMate works. I have the Slide but have not had any luck rooting it (I still don't believe it can be done ). CacheMate technically requires busybox so I'm not sure why it's working. I don't make direct calls to busybox but I know that it adds some of the some core functionality to apps like mine such as cp and mv. This is why some files managers specifically for root will not work without busybox.
I'm assuming a simpler root method will be available soon enough and ROMs everything else will be made available to get all the root apps working perfectly. If the Slide was mine and not my wife's, I would not have given up on trying to root it. Anyway, glad to hear CacheMate works and people are enjoying it on the Slide.
Chachemate is working for me as well.
AndroidAppCritic - One thing I did to get ADB to see the Slide in Recovery was format the memory card before I did anything. I left it in there the whole time too. That worked on two Slides. Pulling the memory card out before Fastboot saw it then popping it back in right before Recovery came up wouldn't work for me.
That is, of course, if that is the problem you were having.

I know it's off topic but believe me when I tell you that I've tried every possible suggestion. I own dozens of SD cards from 2GB class 2 to 16GB class 6 in every imaginable brand. I even tried my gold card from the myTouch. But apparently it really is possible. I guess I don't care as much since it's not mine.
Apparently google was pushing new market update to all the android runnig phones, is th market update process working in our froyo port? I'm asking as I still have the old version of market.

Right here at attachements.
Works on my Kaiser
Just open the .apk with a file manager on your phone and install it.
It will replace the old Market.
Nice looking market BTW
Update doesn't work on mine...
Running Gingerbones 5.1 Odexed... Possibly due to the fact that Market is Odexed in this build.. :-(
why need update? the current market is working well on cyanogens 6.1, or no?

Oh, god no. My phone and pushing are not a good combination.
Can't connect my phone using ADB.
When I want to start up my pc and my phone is connected, it just freezes at the Splash screne until I pull my phone out. Then it boots normally.
Yeah that's probably because it's odex'd. I don't really remember on wich one I tried. If I'm not mistaken it was on Clemsyn's Final Froyo Build.
Downloaded it somewhere off Megaupload. Got the link from some video on YouTube.
I've managed to odex the updated market, and use Terminal Emulator to transfer it to my /system partition overwriting my original market, and it seems to work. Granted I had a gapps FC at boot, but restarted without a hitch.
So far no other FCs, and Market is fully working. Though not sure how many apps I still have available. :-/

I did similar, got the file, sent it to the kaiser, odexed it, sent it back to pc.
Edited my androidinstall.tar, replace old market with new one.
Its working so well, that it detected a gmail update and installed it perfectly (no manual input).
the old market gave me errors doing that, had to manual update.
Nice
Great work
could one of you post the odexed new market?
many thanks!

same here on polaris with scoot's Kernel With Separate Cache Partition.
also no dialog to choose between charge only/hard drive/etc when connecting to booted pc via usb.
adb does work though, just make sure the drivers are installed on your pc, connect and wait for >120s before calling "adb wait-for-device". once your prompt reappears you are connected and ready for e.g. "adb shell".
use "adb kill-server" and "adb wait-for-device" when you get disconnected (not exactly stable) - i use WiFi Keyboard and WiFi File Explorer from market instead.
Simple Thread to show how to root 1.5.7 & 1.8.3 using GingerBreak
Requirements: SD Card(real sd card not internal)
WARNING: THIS WILL DELETE YOUR INTERAL SD-CARD, BACKUP FIRST!!!
First if you don't have adb you need to get it. Easiest way is by downloading SuperOneClick. DO NOT run superoneclick, you only want adb from it.
Next download GingerBreak.apk made by Chainfire, it can be found here
Next launch from command prompt move to where adb is c:/path/to/adb/ and then run the following command
adb install /path/to/apk/GingerBreak.apk
It will install it, next on your phone in your app menu browse to and click on GingerBreak. Click root. Your phone will reboot and you will have root .
I have personally tested on a stock 1.5.7 and it works!
I have not personally tested on 1.83, but it has been confirmed by many. Same procedure applies
If you want side loading use Gladenable.
So to follow up.
Code:
1. Get ADB
2. adb install GingerBreak.apk
3. Run GingerBreak
4. Root
5. If needed run Gladenable to enable sideloading if needed.
6. Done!
All credit goes to the GingerBreak team & Chainfire, all did was apply there work.
Or you could do this, Thanks kennethpen .

Does this work for phones that were never rooted/have sideloading disabled still?
You can always sideload using Android Sideload Wonder Machine.
Oh, nice. That tool is way better than the other one I have...
Also, the OP doesn't mention needing an SD card installed but the other thread mentioned needing one. So do I need an sd card in?

Yes, you need an SD card (not the internal one). As best I've been able to tell so far, vold can only be exploited with an external SD card mounted.
Because of the risk of formatting the card, its recommended you either back yours up first, or use some old 2GB junker. You can get these in the impulse buy isle at your local grocery store.

Yes this is a full rooting method, afterwards you would need to enable sideloading through say GladiRoot.

Nice! Just a suggestion to make it clear in the title that this roots system version 4.1.57 and does not require any sort of SBF flash. Maybe even update the Gladroot original post to link to this one?

Stickmount works perfectly with stock/rooted/decrypted N6..Now I dont need to worry about more storage..FYI guys..sweet..Run some movies with MX player. I am not in any way associated with Mr Chainfire..This is one way to show my appreciation to the king of rooting Mr.Chainfire himself who always open the flood gate for Android.. I highly recommend the pro version for more functionality. You can use the free version too..
You need to be rooted to run this app.
Update: Just update my N7 flo WiFi version to 501 ..Run stickmount and works flawlessly . Fire up some movies with MX player. Will update you guys when N5/N6 get updated to 501 hopefully.
UPDATE: Sorry guys/gals for the delay I update to 501 as soon as it came out but I am a little bit busy the past few days but .as usual stickmount works maybe there's not much that google did to 501 compare to 5..0 but any way it works so were back in business..

If you want to just read whats on the USB storage, try the app Nexus Media Importer.
If you want full read/write access, you need to root your phone and use an app like Stickmount.
