I seen on another thread dat u can take it out without having that problem
Also wen I do it is it supposed 2 show as secondary memory or just internal memory?
Think about it... apps to sd, apps on sd, run app with no sd card = no app to run. The extX partition will show as secondary if the rom supports that screen, yes.
ok heres a quicc question...
on the storage part.. can i remove the apks from the download folder (say if i downloaded from the web) since everything is stored in the partition.. can i remove from /sdcard/donloads/apps4mweb...or do i have to keep em in ther for the apps to run?

I have couple games for ppc but I want to install them on the micro sd card and play on the Wing. Can I do that? Will doing that corrupt the file on the sd card in the long run?
yes, you can.
they can only cause boot loop if it overwrites a neccessary windows driver..which it will probably not..
the probability of storage card or file corruption.. well you are dealing with windows and with blocks of memory...so it's always a possibility... no matter how great of an os windows is... it's still annoyingly stupid at times, hehe.
of course.. some games don't work properly from the sd card.. usually they automatically look for local windows files needed and they can't find them.. because they look for storage card/windows... oops.. so some games do have to be installed on the ppc itself.

Every game that I have ever installed, I've put on my storage card and had no problems. You should be fine with just about anything.

and then you have to create a short cut for the game in the "start up menu" folder right?

Not if its a .cab file. It will auto install and create the link for you.

Oh I see, so you copy the cab file to the sd and run it from there.

One more thing, this is not relate to subject but here is a thought.
I remember reading the cookers said that there is certain size limit requirement when they cook a rom and that's why they can't remove a lot of stuffs.
Here is my thought, why don't they just remove stuffs that they want. Then let say the size limit for a rom is 50 MB and now they have 45 MB. Can they just create a "junk" folder and put some junk files/pictures in that folder to bring the size of their rom to the limit. After people flash their rom, they can just delete the "junk" folder? Then we can have a clean rom with less amount of storage.
How is my internal memory being used up if I have apps2sd installed?
it's not being used at all, your internal storage is just going to waste. Also, a2sd has absolutey nothing to do with memory, so it won't make your phone faster

app2sd installs APPs to sd , but anything else like the cache and such are stored onto your internal. so i suggest clearing out ur cache and such daily. esp from thw browser.
how to clear the ?
Ok how do i do that?
any way to make a certain app bypass apps2sd, and install on the phone memory directly? I know some apps can be moved from /system/sd/app /system/app , but this doesn't work for everything.
advice?

As far as I know, you can just remove your ext partition and it should install apps internally.

alright, here's a scenario then. What if those apps have updates? Will updates from the market install to the sd, or will they only overwrite themselves if the sd has been removed?

Meaning the apps on your ext partition? Wellllll, if you remove the partition completely, it'll remove the apps. So they won't update anywhere. haha
I suggest pulling the apps from your ext via adb, put them on your sd card fat32 partition, and install them manually through a file explorer.

ehh, nevermind. Looks like it's just going to be easiest to move the apps manually.
another way is to put the apps in the rom folder named "app_s" to folder "app" in the system......
I have a program on windows that can recover deleted pictures from any drive. I think I had some pictures on my internal memory that I want to try to recover. How can I mount the internal memory as a drive on windows? I am s-off and have clockwork mod.
It would be easier to backup 'User data ' , re flash the rom you lost data from and restore user data, than to recover some lost data from internal memory unless u have a pre existing backup IMO ...
EDIT: everything you download form the net, take pics from cam etc etc are stored on external memory... ie SD card ... just fyi

not sure what you mean about user data. I had pics on a memory card I wanted to move to another memory card, so i saved it to internal memory card.
Ic .. okay .. could you specify how exactly u moved it to internal memory and the location ?

i used ez file explorer with root permission. I moved it to /data or /.data not sure. Then I deleted it thinking I had moved it back to another sd card.
still looking for an answer to this :/
I see that clockworkmod lets you mount usb storage and you can see it on the pc. it also lets you mount /data..but you can't see it on the PC. Anyone know how I can contact the clokworkmod developer? I want to ask him if its possible to add the functionality i want.

Hi, if I understood you right, you can use MyphoneExplorer program to view the phone memory on Windows machine. Hope it helps you.
I guess My Phone Explorer can do the job for you.

you need a ext4 partition on your sd card and an app which enables you moving apps to sd like "link2sd", "s2e" or similar. And you need to root your phone.
Look a bit around in the ace section here on xda and youll find everything you need

addition : if you a user-type that like to remove your sdcard, better to use link2sd instead of any type extended-internal memory

Just switch off your phone before removing sd card.

you must create ext3 or ext4 primary partition on your sdcard. to create partition, install mini tool partition wizard to your pc. then you can use link2sd to link dalvik caches to your sdcard. or, if you use cm7 as your rom, you can install s2e. to remove system apps, use link2sd

Are you linking the apk, dex and lib files or just installing (moving) apps to sd? You should create link to free up your internal space.
Take it from my experience. I used stocklite for almost 5 months with link2sd. Linked all apps except for those with widgets or that i needed at boot left on internal. 80 apps, 50 mb free on internal.
If you change to cyanogenmod you won't have more internal space, same space, different rom. When you do the required wipes with cwm (which you should to install cyano roms) it will format and erase the partition. You'll still have your partitioned sd card, but all info in that partition will be gone.

I installed Cyno Mod 7 ROM and it works just fine and i have partitioned again and everything is fine now..but i backuped my stocklite and i dont have the original ROM which i used even before rooting how to get that 'the real one which i had when i bought the phone?' if i have that one ..i can change it to anytime when i want..
Carrier specific roms are harder to find than free roms. Go to sammobile and check if they have the rom that came with your phone.
The stock roms are all installed through your computer with odin and your phone in download mode.
