[Q]About FroyoMod - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I flashed FroyoMod v2.6.3 a couple of months ago and haven't got time to learn how to configure its mods to its full potential. Actually I even didn't know what app2ext really was until today. So the sd-ext folder on my phone is still empty at the moment. Now I want to upgrade FroyoMod to its latest version and utilize all its features.
First, I would like to format my SD card and partition it to utilize app2ext. Another reason is because there are many unused files left by the apps I used before in it. So I want my phone to be like a brand new phone after the upgrading. Can any one give me a howto guide on this?
Except partitioning SD card for app2ext, what else preparation/tweaking do I need to do before/after flashing?

I don't have a sd card reader. Can I do the partitioning with my phone connected to my PC?

Thank you very much!
I did the partitioning after I upgraded to v2.9.3. Do I need to reflash my phone to make app2ext work?
Edit: I recall that Auto Memory Manager (AMM) was recommended to be used with Froyomod at that time to enhance performance. Do I still need it now? And what about the supercharger script?

Install Ubuntu and use Gparted
There's a script called SDsplit
there's also a script to partitoin that 51dusty made. Or you can stop being lazy and just type them it. It takes no more than 5min to do.
Or you can flash JF 1.51 adp because it doesn't use the sd so you're safe to partion the sd card and use partted in recovery. JAC has the directions on his Jacxhero ROM page. Thats what i use. Works everytime.

Before I started using "parted" I used apps2sd 2 (in the market).
The trick is to make sure you don't let it run the actual apps2sd but only use it to create the partition.
CM's does it better (and you might break something!!!).
If you don't have a ext partition and run apps2sd 2 it lets you create one.
Don't make the partition more than 500mb-530mb.
By the way, it only makes an ext2 partition so if you want ext3 go to console and and upgrade_fs.
Dusty's method in parted is much better!
This is just what I did before I stopped being lazy.

The one I'm talking about is called sdparted found here
the script provides 3 partitions... you may not need the swapper. try to make it manually, its easy!!!

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:

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

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.

Thanks for the super fast repsonse
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

Optimizing android performance

Hello, I would like to know what steps that I can take to increase the performance of android on my vogue. I am using myn's warm donut rom, with the system installed on the nand and the data installed on my ext2 partition on my sd card. I have heard that Its a good ideal to enable swapping, but I do not know how to enable it. I already have my 8GB class 6 sd card partitioned with one fat partition, one 256MB ext2 partition, and one 1GB ext2 partition (for Data). If anyone has any suggestions or tips, please let me know. Thanks!
PS: is there a way to overclock my vogue while using android? I have tried using the clock.sh file from mssmison's legendary build, but that didn't work.
EDIT: Can i use an ext3 or ext4 instead of ext2 for the partitions on the sd card?
Soon there will be an app for overclocking. Myn is currently working on it.
Other that that, make sure you're always on the latest nbh and Myn release.
Get yourself a task manager and be mindful of what processes you actually need.
Use clearcache often.
go into dev tools/development settings and set the window and transition animation to OFF. i noticed that not only does everything open super quick but it did increase the overal performance
you can't use ext3 or 4 no. First thing is to make sure if you are running data on your sdcard that you are using a fast sd card (not a cheap one).
That's what is giving you the biggest performance hit right now.
There is an OC app coming but to be honest it really should be running quite snappy for you.
Thanks guys for all of the info. I have just one more question. should I enable swapping on my android? Advanced task manager usually reports that I have around 46-40MB of free ram.
If you have a lot of free memory already, there is no reason to use swap.
Ok, I have one last question (I apologize if I'm being a bit annoying). I tried installing and using Adfree on my vogue, but when I run it, it says "Cannot locate the 'cat' util on your system". Does anyone know how I can fix this? also, when my phone is connected to my charger, my phone's 3g speeds are really good, but when It's not on the charger, the 3g slows down. Normally I'm ok with it, but it may make playing some games online a bit more difficult when off the charger. Is there some way I can fix this? Thanks!

[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.

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.

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.

Formatting SD Card Ext

I have my phone unlocked and rooted and have used Big Bear's Iconic rom to flash my phone. This completed fine but part of the process after flashing describes flashinf with data2sd ext3 script. When i tried this I realised my sdcard was formatted fat 32 and not ext3. My desktop machine uses ubuntu linux and I wondered if its possible to format the card via terminal or some piece of software and in what proportions should i partition it to extend my salsa's pitiful internal memory. Also when this is done does the script need to be on a particular partition or just somewhere on the card.
If its easier to configure the card via windows I also have a winxp laptop that could do the job.
Any help greatly appreciated.

yeah it would be easier via windows, i still not found software on Ubuntu to do the partitions lol.
just copy the data2sd-ext3.zip onto your sd card that's all and flash from there. you only need a small 1gb partition max on the sd cad the rest in fat32.
Cool will give that a try tomorrow and let you know how it goes
Worked a charm thanks I do have a couple of question though if i may. Although working with no probs the script mentions preparing the partition with ext2 (I used ext3) and an app called busybox to be installed into system/xbin. What does this app do and is it needed.
Also is this script tailored to the salsa or can it be used on other android devices to achieve more internal memory?. My Desire has the same issue you see.
Thanks in advance for all the help
Yes busybox is requiredlol, otherwise it wouldn't work. We never changed the txt over from ext2 but its still the same and works on both anyway. As for desire....I have no idea, this was based on wildfire s/salsa only, try it out see what happens lol
Busybox is part of the superuser setup without this builtin or added in we wouldn't have root at all. Deleting it would cause issues too.

So given my phone is rooted (thanks to your help a few weeks ago) I take it I must already have this Busybox installed otherwise the script would have failed correct?
I partitioned my test 1 gig sd card into two equal parts one ext3 and one left fat32, the phone reports equal portions on sd card and internal memory via the Settings----> Storage menu. So I'm assuming all is well.
Yeah busybox will already be there lol. That's all fine on the SD, but just be aware, the lower the class SD your using, I assume its a 2gb, you may have a class 4, which will lag. If you experience lag, reduce the ext3 size to 500mb you will see a difference.

Is there any difference between data2sdext3 and data2whatever? If yes which one is better to flash with a custom ROM (I am using Bear's XSeries V11).
(Data2ext3 is causing problems for me. Crashing various apps time to time. Using a class 4 sdcard with 470 MB partition. Found data2whatever on Razer's ROM page)

A big difference between them.data2SD ext3 is designed for non apps2SD roms ie mine, data2whatever is for apps2SD roms only.if you're having force close issues then you didn't install something correctly. Using these scripts on the wrong Rom could have adverse affects in the Rom.
Each Rom made will have the correct script to use in the listing. If you choose to use them the opposite way round then the developer won't help you correct the problems I'm afraid, all I can suggest is redo the Rom of your choice till it works correctly.
If your having problems with mine, post up in the thread as long as your using the setup I gave and I'll help as much as I can.
For force close issues you can always use fix permissions in Rom manager or in recovery advanced section, this normally stops them.if it dont reinstall them Rom. It tends to be a user error when this happens, I'm using my own Rom and never get force close problems.
