Boult in SD problem in JP2 - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi! For me, the gameloft games doesn't work. The install was Ok, but when i put the phone in airplane mode, open the game, when it should must download the files, it's writing, that there isn't enough free space on sd. I have an 16 GB sd and the boult in sd with 5.78 GB free... I don't understand it.
I Tried with Nova and Sandstorm, I downloaded the sandstorm.rar from ----------, installed the game, opened it, but it's writing, that there's missing some files, i clicked to download those file, and It's writing, that the free spaces on my sd is less, than 1 mb... My free spaces are 5.78 Gb and 7.3 Gb. I saw on the settings/sd, that I can't mount/unmount the boult in sd. It worked before JP2. Now it's missing. Any idea ?

sd space question

I have a 4 gig sd card with it partioned ext2,ext3, and a linux swap. To be honest I don't know really what that means exactly, just followed the tutoriul to have my apps to go to my sd card. When I go to sd storage info it says.
Total space- 3,255mb Available space 1,875 mb.
Under Sd card secondary it says Total space- 457mb Available space- 292mb
For Internal phone storage it says 78mb available.
My question is where are my apps actually going? And where does my other stuff such as music, movies and other files go? From what i am guessing I have 1875mb for files and 292mb for apps. Correct? Thanx in advance for explaining this too me.
It should be fat32, ext3, linux-swap. 78 megs sounds right for apps2sd. Your apps go to ext3 along with your cache, movies and other files you can browse on your phone go to your fat32which is your normal storage and swap is a location where your phone puts operating memory to hold more processes in the background(helps out you ram)

This is a warning flag that you will probably brick or otherwise disable your phone in the future.
Nothing in the dev subforum should be performed until you fully understand how it works.

I doubt everybody here knows exactly every technical detail and aspect about their phones. In addition I knew I was partioning my sd card just wanted to understand where all my files were going. I have successfully rooted my phone the old fashion way and installed numerous roms and themes after many hours of reading and following directions in these forums. I'm sorry i am not expert in linux or coding. All I asked was for some information of the subject, if you can't help then don't post. Thanks gridlock for your answer.
You are welcome but I must defend jashsu, you have only been a member since last month and made a few posts, he was just staying on the side of caution because there are a lot of people who just dive in without knowing what they are doing and no offense but your ? Was a common type of ? That a noob who did not have much knowledge would ask

I tried to help, you weren't receptive of it. Maybe a second time with some added emphasis will drive the point home?
Nothing in the dev subforum should be performed until you fully understand how it works.
Are there people in the dev forum who can/should do things that they don't fully understand? Of course; they are the hackers and experimenters who are not afraid of bricking their devices. I assume (perhaps wrongly?) from your comment "I don't know really what that means exactly, just followed the tutoriul" that you are not one of those people. I'd be happy to be proven wrong.
I stand by what I wrote.
Edit: by the way the asking of questions (although searching would be good too) is part of the process of learning and therefore understanding. I was not at all trying to discourage you from asking the question, I was just pointing out the danger of proceeding with dev modifications without proper understanding.
78mb?? your lucky I only got 33mb! and I got cyanogens rom with automatic apps2sd!
where do you guys reckon my space has gone?
Did you wipe before you flash cyanogen, right now on 4.04 I have 64mb internal with running the danger spl, that does change internal memory

Might have a dead/faulty sdcard slot,old parts tend to fail.
ok what you have to do now is download this program called paragon partition manager jus google it n it should be the first link., after downloading the manager open it n locate ur sd card (also u do need a sd card adapter so make sure u have the one tht came with the phone or any onther in this case.,) after u have located the card patition it., to do this u have to choice how much space u want for ur ext 2 ., i choice about 300 to 350mb range leaving me with about 3.6gb left for my personal use., after u choice the amount u want for ur ext 2 start the partition it should be a few mintues., after tht put the memory card into ur phone check if it works., i did this same procedure n worked jus fine for me., hope this helps you out., if not post back the problem.,
jibbz
any reason why a second thread (both created by you, on the same topic) is nessicary???
i gave you a few specific instructions last time....
first, repartition the card (using paragon, or a ubuntu live CD) if it doesnt work then you
can try a fresh format on another SD card... if niether work then you just have a faulty slot (assuming you are on a stable/Stock rom that you know works)
and YES FASTBOOT can recognize a card while the rest of the phone wont(personal experience), dont ask me to explain it, but if you had even read my last post in your other thread youd have know that......
your G1 is probaly just old.... get over it.... it was always intended as a Beta/Dev device....
and you HAVE been reported for spamming the forum with multiple threads on the same topic (in the wrong section this time no less)..... and dont ***** and whine about no-one checking the q-a sections.... it cuz fsck-balls like you spam useless ****
MOD EDIT - Please abide by forum rules and only post a query once. No need for duplicate threads. I have deleted previous thread

[Q] Installing apps to external SD (or other folder in general)?

I am the proud owner of an LG Optimus 2X Speed.
It has an internal SD card. If you mount your own SD it is mounted under //mnt/sdcard/_ExternalSD. How can I install apps to the external SD?
App2SD won't work. It just copies apps from flash to internal SD. (so //mnt/sdcard/).
I've searched high and low for an answer. The closest I've come to someone sharing my problem is this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842053
But nobody has answered that thread...
Can't be done without mount point changes in the kernel.
Surely /data + /sdcard is sufficient for apps?
This is going to be like the 720p issue for the Nexus One, it will become the most hated question on this forum very quickly I feel...
My recommendation, which will give you more than you can use:
* apps to internal
* External app data to /sdcard
* Multimedia, roms, backups etc /ExternalSD
Some apps don't yet recognise /ExternalSD as a legitimate location so hassle the devs, it's standard Android (now).
Well, the main problem is the maps from CoPilot Live. The Europe maps can't be downloaded since they are too big. I would like to have them on the ExternalSD. This may be going beyond the scope of the original question, but since that's the main reason I'm asking it would be appreciated...
So, how can I make Copilot Live download to the External SD? Or can't you make some symlink so that the apps can be on External SD but Android thinks they're on internal ?

The easiest way around this probably is to contact the app dev and ask him to implement a way users can select where to grab those files from.
I wonder how this issue was resolved with the Galaxy S, didn't that one have an internal SD too?

Yes, the above answer is correct. It's not just the easiest way, it's the best way.
I realise it's a practical problem for you but via the dev is the only way really. They should be quicker (especially for paid apps!) because this "issue" (internal SD) has been around since what, May last year...
Until we get a custom kernel it can't be solved (except via dev) and even with a custom kernel that re-mapped everything I'd be very hesitant to do this, it will break standard stuff I'm sure.

I'm by no means an expert with Android, but I've been using UNIX since working at Bell Labs in the mid-70s and I've used the link command to "fool" many a UNIX app. As it happens, you could use the same command "ln" to do the same. Just create a directory on ExternalSD and ln that one into the directory tree at the desired "mount" point. For CoPilot, that would probably be /SD/copilot/EU, SA, NA, etc. It should work fine since CoPilot almost certainly cannot "see through" this link - that, while possible, would be a true violation of standards.
I've done something similar with Android to put application cache space in one place on the SD mount-point. See here -> androidcommunity dot com/forums/f4/updated-move-caches-to-sd-card-11167 for details (I haven't done enough posts to be able to post a link). Just use a variation on this method to put the copilot maps where you have space. This worked for every app I tried it with.
That's just my opinion... I could be wrong,

Is there a solution for this issue by now?
I found a application Move2SD Enabler (root only) but I guess is work only for Froyo. I whant to install on my Galaxy S Plus ( i9001) but it's not compatible with device.
On my galaxy S Plus all aps in moved on internal sd card ( //mnt/sdcard ) not on my external sd card .
one of the most discussed topics on this phone is, everyone wants it!

I did install GL to SD, and it is working for me with GAMELOFT games, it is working perfectly, but how can I use this app with any other application and game that I install and it is located on internal SD card?
Try this app. Can be used for any application - just move the bigger folders to your external SD with Directory Bind:

Can I increase the 3.2 data partition size or make it just one data partition

I have a Dell Streak 7 (T-Mobile version) 3.2 Honeycomb, installed via "[Guide]New HC Rom: 506/507 + Installation Instructions [Including US 4G]". Everything works great, except I have run out of application space.
I have over 11 gigs free, but with 3.2 you can't install anything on the internal SD, or external SD for that matter. I bought 32gig SD cards to store files, I want all the internal storage for Applications and settings.
How can I make the internal storage be one large data partition or at least increase the data partition size, while decreasing the internal SD size.
And for how I ran out, the free apps from Google and Amazon. I have about 200 from the Amazon Free App A Day promotion alone.

My suggestion to you is to flash DJ Steve's HoneyStreak using the NVFlash method. Inside the folder he allows for up to a 6GB app partition if you wanna take it that far... as far as I know of that's the only way to repartition your internal SD.
Create backups of all those apps, create backup of everything on your internal sd because the process is going to wipe everything, and then reinstall and copy back
Any Fixes?
Even I am stuck there. Did anybody find any solution to this.
Can I use the CWM to create a new data partition? I am having rooted Stock 3.2.

Did you not read my post, THAT is the easiest solution... I can't think of any way to install 6 gigs of apps, but some people just don't know when to quit installing without realizing what it does to the OS... and even that can be modified if you know how to configure the specific sectors of the internal SD, but I have no experience with that

I'm with you man but I get so frustrated by the noobs that don't realize the reason they were given the option to install to SD in the first place... back in those days when it was necessary and apps were actually coded to run well off an external SD it was ok, but they don't understand that most apps these days prohibit it for many reasons, they just demand too much to run off the external SD and they don't seem to wanna use their brains and wrap their heads around the idea that there's no sense in having hundreds of apps installed... hopefully within the next year those types will either move to the iPhones they should be using because they have no business using a flexible android device or they will frustrated and get talked into buy a brokenglass (windows) phone
I think you should stop using your power to think about those fags.
At this point the question of the OP is answered, isnt it?
If there is another question to this topic please write down. For other questions make a thread.

This is what I ended up doing
From the CWM recovery I created a ext3 partition on my SD Card and use Link2SD from market.
Thanks to

To resize the partition later I had used GParted from a linux live CD.
Honeystreak partition method
I wanted to test a theory on this myself. So I will start with saying I am running 3.2 official with 514(rooted). I use 514 to be able to use my dock. Love me or hate me.
1) I did a nandroid backup on my sd card. I used my app backup tool to backup my apps just in case.
2) I flashed Honeystreak R2 using NVFLASH.
3) I then placed Honeystreak R8 on my sd card with the text file as instructed. and then installed the zip using CWM.
4) I then fastbooted the latest (and greatest) CWM 5.0.2.8
5) Then booted CWM 5.0.2.8 and flashed my Nandroid Backup.
6) CHA-CHING!!!!
I was able to keep the 4 GB partition that was created using the Honeystreak R2 NVFLASH.
This is tested and it works so you can get up to 6GB using this method.

System Rom: 13.2MB Free

According to Titanium, I have 13.2 MB free on my System Rom memory. Seems to me that is low and could cause problems.
I have not proactively taken any action, up to now, to put any apps on the SD. However, I just went into manage apps, found many that won't allow it, but did move a couple, totaling around 5MB, but it did not change the reading in Titanium. I just kicked off a full backup, thinking maybe it won't update until I do that.
At any rate, anyone have any thoughts, suggestions, comments or recommendations?
No it will not make any problems. When you moved apps, you move user apps stored on /data/apps to /mnt/.It is talking about the /system partition of the phone. Don't worry about it.
That shouldn't be a issue ROM means Read Only Memory if i remember right, so that shouldn't change to much (except when flashing a new rom). Apps are in the "internal" as to TiBU.
Edit: b-eock beat me to it xD
