Major RA-dream Problem

Is it normal to NOT be able to wipe the Dalvik-cache and ext partition??
It always gives me an error saying it doesnt exist? I am able to install ROMs and themes however. Any ideas or recommendations on what to do?
Running: RA-dream-v1.2.3.

Do you have partations on your SD?

Do you mean the below?
Partition Fat32/Ext2 with App2SD
Open up Apps2SD
It will show you a screen telling you that your card is not partition and you will have a sliding bar to choose the amount of space you want for an EXT2 partition
I suggest a max of 600mb for EXT2 space (I use 500mb)
Press Ok
You will get a Force Close screen DONT PRESS FORCE CLOSE PRESS WAIT
You will get a reboot message, Press Reboot
You now have a EXT2 partition
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Upgrading your EXT2 Partition to EXT3
Note: You do need the Cyanogen Recovery image for this to work!
Reboot into Recovery (Home + Power)
Go to console (Alt+x)
Press Enter
Type the following in the Console:
Code:
upgrade_fs
Wait for it to finish
Congrats! You now have a Fat32/EXT3 partitioned Sd Card!

If you get a error about run via console or something you should remove sd blow the slot then place the card back in. Your sd might be the prob though so see if anything changes.
I see i noticed you have a older Ra which has bugs you should upgrade to theh newer version that have those things fixed.

Yes it does say run via console, blew the slot several times and same thing, even blew on the SD card and nothing :-(
Perhaps it is time to change out this SD for a newer one, could be its going out on me?

Upgrading to the latest and greatest RA is my next step, hoping this will fix my issue... thanks for all your suggestions so far.
@ilostchild: thanks for your input as well.

Okay so I installed the lastest RA Dream and am still getting the same error.
I am going to test out a new microSD and see what happens. I just have to make a temporary folder on my desktop copy, format the new SD to fat32 and copy the original files and folders I had back into the new one right?
Also, will me not having partitions be the whole reason behind it? Even the Dalvik-cache?

yes................ that would be a reason why you can't wipe your ext partition. you need to have an ext partition to wipe it.

Im good to go, got that installed since today 04:55 AM.
I think I found my solution the Sandisk 1GB was holding me back. Now I can even install the ROM Super D unlike before.
Many thanks to everyone for their contribution.

app2sd?

I'm using warm donut, flashed to the phone.. before hand I was using haret until I felt everything was stable enough.
My SD card is still partitioned the old way, 7.4GB fat32, 512M ext3, 32M swap
Is there a way to enable app2sd with warm donut so I can get more room? it might just be the fun of something new for now, but watching the free space for apps going down way to quickly

i second this, I would love to do apps to SD

I think it should be do-able now that we have the automount program that allows access sd card system and user simultaneously.

yeah you guys would love apps2sd...it's cool on my hero! im glad to see all of the android development going on here.

If you guys want to do Apps2SD, you'll need an ext2 partition on your SD for it. Native Android devices have had some trouble with Apps2SD, so it's just been rewritten by Chris Soyars and Cyanogen -- instead of the WesGarner method that had been used previously. I suggest using their code as it's battle-tested.
Here's the relevant code at github, as you can see it's been recently updated:
http://github.com/cyanogen/android_vendor_cyanogen/tree/eclair/prebuilt/common/etc/init.d/
HTH

I have app2sd enabled in my eclair build.
If you want to use it you must have an ext2 parition on your sdcard. than use my spareparts app to enable. Reboot.. wait... and there you go.

Can we get this going in your build Myn?

It's something that's built into the build, for msi's eclair he's got some extra things built into it. But it's not something you can just download

Thanks for the quick reply.
This is starting to be not worth it and I am thinking I am glad that I was able to try android on an older phone because I dont think I will be getting an android phone when I upgrade in 6 months. Getting it so I can load apps to the sd card is WAAAAAAY to much of a pain I have tried a couple of tutorials and still cant get it to work.

All you need to do is create a ext2 partition on your card and install system to nand and data to ext 2 partition. You can create as big of a partition as you want.

I used gparted to create the partition and formated it to ext2.
The second part you are talking about install the system to nand and data to the ext2 partition. I have installed Myn’s Warm Donut - [RLS 4 - 03/16/2010] nand version and thats where I am at right now. Do I need to move the data folder to the ext2 partition that I created? If yes when I connect to my PC running windows 7 I cannot see the ext2 partition that I created with gparted.

use the norootfs installer and set your data to NAND, hit data backup, then set your data to ext2 and hit data restore.
Windows can't read ext2 on it's own

there you go much better answer then mine. Thanks man

would using ext2 partions make the build run smoother?
what are the benifits over NAND?

are you sure you need to have your data on the sd card? I was running apps2sd with mssmison's v7 eclair, and both my data and system were on nand, only the apps2sd was using the ext2 partition. i don't think it cares where your data.img is, just as long as you have an available ext2 partition; correct me if I'm wrong.

Ok making progress with your suggestion after 2 days of reading and failure -- lol.
I am now able to install apps to the sd card. However when I was trying all kinds of things to get this to work I made my 8GB sd card partitioned 6.5gb fat 32 and then made two ext2 partitions evenly split.
So do I need two ext partitions?
And as soon as I made the change and was able to install to the sd card I can no longer sync with my PC. Its not a huge deal because I took out the micro sd and placed it into an sd reader and my PC could still read it. So I am guessing that its something that I changed that is causing the phone not to sync with my PC.
Any thoughts

Did you ever partition your internal memory to anything but 2gb. Seems to happen when people partition differerent from the stock 2gb.

Yeah I did partition it! A few weeks ago it just shut down on me then started in bootloop nothing I did worked until partitioning the drive. How can I fix this? And can I just un-partition reload the rom? Got the step by step? lol

You partition it the same way you did it before. Using clockwork. Just pick 2gb, and 0 for swap and the problem should go away. It will delete all the stuff on your internal sdcard so make a copy if it's important. And then reload whatever rom you like.

[HOWTO]Change SD with app2sd

Upgrading/Changing of memory/SD cards while using App2SD?
Here's how.
What you need:
-Rooted
-Drellisdee's ThunderG custom recovery(preferably v1.2)
-Card Reader(Optional)
Steps:
-Boot into recovery
-In recovery menu, select "Backup/Restore" then "Nand + ext backup".(If you are using an ext4 app2sd partition, ThunderG v1.2 is a MUST)
-Now with any means suitable to you, transfer the "nandroid" folder found on your SD to your PC.(the easiest way is to mount USB-ms via recovery, but for some reason this option doesn't work for me)
-Now turn off your phone and insert the NEW SD.
-Boot into recovery again and partition your new SD(for app2sd).
-Now again, with any means suitable to you, transfer the "nandroid" folder you just copied to your PC back to the new SD.
-In recovery menu, select "Backup/Restore" then "Nand restore", choose the file to restore(in most cases, there is only one option)
-Wait for it, now reboot.
-Enjoy!
Custom Recovery
ThunderG v1.2

man! you woke up early for this?
kudos!!!! now everyone can happily change/upgrade their cards...

now this doesnt seem right... i mean, it has to work.
hhmm.. mine does. im on thunderG too.
maybe youre lacking drivers for it.... have you checked you device manager?
------------------
EDIT ok i get it. i dont have the V1.2 will try to install later on.
maybe the new recovery has the problem.. and not your PC...
---------------------------------
more EDIT
ok ive just installed V1.2 and yes i can confirm that the USB toggle under recovery works for me.
now the next thing to try is upgarade to a higher capacity card... *lol*
nice one Ungaze!

lol, up late seems more like it.
usb-toggle issue might be usb driver related.
havent flashed the firmware yet so i didnt have the need to install the drivers as well.
i also used this method to revert my app2sd partition from ext4 to ext2. so it also works with different partition filesystem, someone can maybe test if it also works with different partition size.

thats backing up and restoring right?
maybe ill try it on ext4...
anyway, why convert back to ext2? is there any significance?

was doing a test, and speed-wise there is a slight improvement. about 50 - 80 points on I/O using quadrant. Although really unnoticeable and I don't really rely on quadrant that much, performance seems to be just the same.(OptimusXrom maker domenic_s also uses ext2).

i see.. maybe one time ill try to do ext2.. hehehe
theres not much happening with our O1 today ei?!
so i need to do something... hehehe errr experiment on something...
*lol*

now thats weird.. after rebooting the second time to recovery...
i cant find my files under Flash zip files...
seems like only system folders are installed....

I just used EASEUS Todo Backup to clone old sd card (with partition ext 4, i think) to new sd card.
It copied everything on the old sd card to new sd card and it works flawlessly.
The software is free for home user.

good for you. just sharing how I did it since changing SDs are becoming pretty common nowadays.

ungaze, after installing the recovery...
and rebooting it via adb, i can still access the files on my sd card. like for example i want to install a new theme etc etc using Flash ZIP menu on V1.2
but after rebooting the second time.
i cant see the files anymore... just folders....
im not into changing cards. but i just want to install something using V1.2 recovery.
and somehow i cannot see my zip files inside Flash ZIP menu.
thats the place to look for when i want to install flashable zips right?

I see, I think I know what you mean.
One of the new features of ThunderG v1.2 recovery is the ability to recognize folders when choosing a zip file to flash. Well that's good, but the problem is that it still doesn't have the option to scroll down when the screen/list is full(or maybe I just havent found out yet). I also had this problem before, so what I did was to make a new folder with a higher alphabetical priority name, eg: "aaflash", "aflashfiles", "1flash" etc so that the folder will always appear at the top. Then I placed all my zip files into that folder and just open the folder when I need to apply something. Try it, the files should appear.

yap. someone told me that too... and so i did.. and yes it can be read...
but we can still consider that a bug.
and i think the author needs to edit that part.
anyhow. its working fine....

What does this do? Is this the way we can move all our apps to sd card??? Please im desperate

Actually, I can't really call it a convertion, I just backed up the SD contents, format it, repartition ext2 than put the old contents back in place. Update: Ext2 on optimusXrom's app2sd doesnt seem to work, didn't checked thoroughly and app2sd got disabled. Need to contact domenic on how he did this.

[Guide]How 2 Create EXT3 for the Salsa only! * Increased Internal Memory*

Ok seems many usrs here have the same problems over and over again. so heres a tut!
This will probably cover many other topics but simplified here as much as i can.
You Must have the following to get this to work:
ROOT
Recovery 5.0.2.6
busybox installed.
if you have non of these...do not attempt any of this thread till you have!
To start with.
Creation of EXT3 Partitions.
you will need Minitool Partition Wizard. Mini Tool Partition Wizard Download
This is a harddrive/diskspace program allowing accurate modification of disk space.
Never create an EXT3 in CWM, as this will create whats known as a swap drive.
this causes the bootloop. Hence the non boot!
EXT3 has to be set as primary drive not logical.
Size allowance recommendations (personal choice, but this is after a few findings and results given by Salsa users)
SD Card Size.................................EXT3 Size
2GB......(Class 2).............................250MB
4GB......(Class 2-4)..........................500MB
8GB......(Class4-6)...........................500MB-1GB
16GB....(Class8-10).........................1.2GB​
WARNING, anything over 1.5GB will result in serious problems and SD damage
This also works around class types of SD Card. the higher the class the faster it works, there are various brands offering different class cards, find a fast and big card for best performance. I currently use Class 8 16GB with 1GB Ext3 with little/no lag
Wise idea before this to make an SD backup, if done correctly your data will not be affected...if you screwed up...you'll loose everything...so back it up!
To start with,
Remove Sd Card and use and SD Reader and insert into your computer USB Slot.
Open Minitool Partition Wizard.
Resize your sd card accordingly leaving 1.2-1.5gb of unallocated space. Apply the actions.
Now you have the unallocated space, reformat the space in EXT3 and set as Primary drive. Apply Actions.
Now normally the Application throws your sd out and says bad drive......this is sometimes normal so don't panic.
Reinsert your Sd in Phone and boot into recovery only
Data2sd script
theres 2 scripts available for these roms.
htc-data2sd-ext3 or data2whatever by m1ndh8x4r.
2.1 Roms work well with htc-data2sd-ext3 script with no problems.
data2whatever works really well with 3.5 sense Roms (Bens/M1nds)
*****There is a warning with this data2whatever script....When using this script, you will notice after a short period, that you cannot update or install any more apks. This is due to a Dalvik error within the script on Deodexed roms, currently it cannot be fixed, you have been warned*****​
these can be used easily but the following rules must be applied.
You must flash the rom firstly by the 3 wipes...regardless!
flash the rom as normal and reboot full, letting the rom fully build it self and load up... ie input your details/sign in wifi etc.
check it out for a few mins while your waiting...hey even make a backup lol!
OK now reboot in recovery and flash the chosen script....DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING!
once flashed reboot normally.
it will boot, it may take up to 5-10mins but it will boot. if by any chance you a boot loop at the boot animation screen then you have an EXT3 fault and you must redo the EXT3 Partition in Minitool to proceed again.
data2sd scripts are here>
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?duigp9ky9796b65 for htc-data2sd-ext3.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?m7bv6pk024p63ef for d2extv0.43.zip (New/Advanced)
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?qr5rh2fho1hnbnl for data2whatever
This is a proven way and so many have tried and failed other ways.
Please try this guide. If you get stuck please just ask!
Please Answer my poll at the top and Thank this post...Ty!
If you Answer NO to this guide, please post below and tell me why so i may help further

Heyy it worked thanks man

Trying to do this with fdisk on linux
It works but runs slowly for some reason
I have a 2GB cards, first partition is about 1.4 for normal /sdcard the remaining .4GB for /data
Both partitions are start aligned on 2048 sectors

Issue - applications get corrupted after restart
I am facing strange issue. I did everything described above and have /data on sd. But everytime I reboot something happens to most apps. They are installed but when I try to launch any of them I got errors and application closes. I need to reinstall EVERY app and they work until next reboot. Any ideas about the cause or what to check ? At this point I am trying not to discharge or reboot my phone by it;s impossible to keep it that way.

no dont lol...ok sounds a bit stupid but have u got root? because what your describing is and apps2sd thing...which u cant get on stock rom....but if u dont have full root....then this sort of thing does happen....or...you got a faulty ext3 partition...
questions next...
which guide did u make ext3?
size and did u make swap?
root?
Need file name of the data2sd script u used and how u used it...(this is important)
so i need full break down....assuming u have root that is....this almost sounds like a silly problem, but then most of us don't use stock roms anymore....so we dont have this problem lol

Of course I have a root - it works perfectly. I created the partition according to above instructions (I mean this thread). My ext3 partition is about 800 MB and 3200 MB is for FAT32. I did not create swap - just fat32 and ext3 with Partition Wizard. I used htc-data2sd-ext3.zip in I think normal way - phone reset, installing busybox, reboot, installing script with recovery - done. Everything is perfect until next reboot.

sounds like a problem with your rom my friend....hard to tell without seeing it really...
have you thought about changing the rom itself?

either that or find your ruu and reinstall stock again!

Funny thing
I used my previous card (smaller - just 2 GB) and there's no such behaviour as with my 4GB. Smaller one is Sandisk, bigger one is Kingstone - both known for good products. So switching ROM is rather not an option. There's something about SD but I can not figure out what...

Pls help
I have created 6gb of fat32 and copied ROM and data2sd-ext3.zip then formatted remaining 1gb space in ext3. When I tried to install zip from recovery mode it throws "E: can't mount /sdcard/"
pls help
Thx

how did you make the partitions? and are they set as primary?
what class sd card is it? you need a class 8 or 10 on that size.

I used mini tool for partition. I set fat32 as logical and ext3 as primary. I have 8gb class 10 SD.

Shrink the ext3 to 750mb and set all partitions as primary.

Yep now I can see my data in SD card. Another problem I triple wiped and flash arc rom again, and given detail/sign in. When trying to flash script in recovery mode, it asks for busybox in some sys folder. I don't have busybox and also script installed, but ext3 memory not reflects in as main memory. Am I used different script or I need to install busybox, if so how to do that.?

I installed busybox @ system/xbin and flashed script, it worked. Finally my internal memory problem solved:thumbup:
I request to add installing busybox step and download link for script in tutorial.
