[Q] Linking Dex - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Before... I used to link Dex to SD from the APKs using Link2SD...
But now, it can still link but after reboot, the Dex is not linked to SD but to DATA partition...
This time... I can no longer install many heavy apps such as Quickoffice (Dex 7.69MB)...
Please recommend me a ROM that can link Dex to SD and won't move to DATA partition after reboot...
PS: It seems older MiniCM7 works but I don't know what version...
I know how DEX works but I rather don't need it... Space is more important for me.
EDIT:
Delete all kinds of script interfering Link2SD, this includes, A2SD, Apps2SD, Mounts2SD, S2E init.d scripts... located on system/etc/init.d

I've used link2sd on gdx 18+ and rc1 and it works ok.

I see... it seems RC1 works well...
Does ODEXED ROMs uses less space on DATA partition? Because I'm using GingerEricsson (Fail) is DEODEXED ROM uses at least more or less 40 MB of the DATA partition on first use... NO user apps installed...

I think odexing uses more /data space. That's how it seems in /system/app. But i'm no expert in this. Let's wait for someone who can answer that.

I've just tried GingerZaraki today (ODEXED ROM), and it seems uses little /data size. What I know ODEXED ROMs' dex are also inside their own folder which is included in the ROM, that could be the reason why it's heavy than DEODEXED ROMs.
I'm still not sure if it's okay to use CM7 built-in apps2sd (ext partition)...

Well, tbh i really prefer link2sd. Lots more features than the native apps2d.

[Q] about s2e, darktremor, ungaze, link2sd, etc.

i know that we should all try out which seems to be best fitting for our own personal taste, but i just want to know if who uses what the most. so please, tell me: which rom you use and what you use to transfer apps to your partition because i have tried a lot of other scripts and apps, but i just can't seem to decide which is the best. thanks in advance if you would cooperate
I am on cm7.2RC5.2 and use 'link2sd' for linking apps to sd.
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium
I use CM7 RC5.5 with darktremor script and this script.
I'm using CM7 RC5.5 along with s2e.
everything works very well.
I have use s2e and darktremor both are good and working but i think darktremor is the better choise!! Havent try the both other!!
Notice: on s2e app do not sync automatic like weather etc. on darktremor no problem!!

I use cm7.2 rc5.5 with latest link2sd.
Works flawless.
Used link2sd also on other roms. No problems there to.

when i was on mini i used link2sd because it lets me choose which app to move and which to not
I see most of you use link2sd. But for those who use s2e, have you already experienced a time when you boot your sgm, you suddenly lose all your apps and you can't check or uncheck the Applications box?

Did not experience this problem. Been using s2e for a long time. You can check the Application data by going to s2e settings and check Advance mode. Restart s2e, and you should be able to check it. But I think its impratical to move it to sd-ext. The developer had it default to not move it. I mean, what's the use of your internal memry if nothing's on it? Afaik, the developer chose not to move it since it needs a high I/O speed and internal mem best suits the requirement. It's only practical to move it if you have a class 10 sd card.. still its the users choice, so..

A sd card class 10 certified is a must if you don't want to loose so much speed compared to internal memory.
Although reading speed is not that prob for many card, writing is the more important factor. There class 10 should give you best results.
You can also gain more speed setting a higher sd read ahead cache size. You can do it via an app (sd speed increase for example) or a rom which supports it (cm7 rc5.5 squadzone for example).

Use s2e
I use emanon V4 and i have try both of darktremor n s2e..maybe darktremor is better than s2e but i like to use s2e
Its not just you who experienced s2e corrupting the partition and destroying all partition data suddenly. It happened to me thrice and got me pissed like ****. Now I removed partition, formatted my 8 GB memory card. Flashed cm7 by subskype. Using the default cyanogen settings options to set default installation directory to external memory i.e memory card. Am done with this partition crap.

To everyone, thanks a lot for cooperating. I think I'd try s2e, link2sd, darktremor, and the move to sd card settings in cyanogenmod each in a week. Then I'll see which one I think is best.

Phone reboots on installation of ANY app!!

I know it sounds weird. But, It is really happening with me. I tried to google but didn't find proper solution. Neither I'm expecting here. But, Any suggestions though?
PS: I already DID restore my nandroid backup.. But, Its the UOT kitchen what I'm doubting. Does anyone know how to see a log before my phone rebooted? It might help.
I experienced this too back then in CM7.2. Do you use link2sd or similar app? If so, try removing them and clean your init.d folder. And then clear dalvik cache.

I am using CM7.2 already! and yes I have created sd-ext of 1GB and moved all apps via S2E.
But, the problem with this is, clearing my dalvik-cache from CWM Recovery clears my whole sd-ext partition!
I too faced this problem when i had.over 120 apps and was using s2e...i suugest u switch to link2sd ...

Then try to reinstall everything.. Backup with Titanium, clean S2E and scripts (or reflash ROM), restore fron Titanium, then apply S2E again.

I have roughly 130 apps installed currently. I used Jusada's ICS Final before my current ROM - CM7.2 by FrozenAce Team. The reason I switch to this ROM is, I had uncertain bootloops in previous ROM. It was really unusual experience for me. I put the phone in my pocket and when I get it out, its in bootloop. Anyway, I'm thinking to switch on "Ace of Spades V2- performance".
What my questions are:
1) Are you using Link2SD? Is it really as effective as S2E?
2) When I run batch to restore all user apps + data from SDcard, Is it really fast in moving apps and creating soft links?

Well, to be honest that would be pointless. I have already restored Nandroid backup which doesn't have this problem. But what I'm concern about is, I restored it 3rd time in last 4 days cause of this problem. Now, sometimes I even hesitate while installing a new app.
By the way, I'm seriously doubting on S2E now. I suspect Dragonoid is right. Does anyone using S2E have similar problem?
I also face this problem sometimes... dont know why!!

Yes, I had this problem with S2E.
I never get Link2SD to work, but it's actually great if you can get it to work, because you can select which app should go to SD and which app in /data. Some app like launcher, social, and instant messaging apps usually performs better in internal memory

This problem started when I partitioned my sd card 8gb class2
So phone started lagging a lot
And reboots on app install and uninstall... I had used s2e
Only solution I came across is buy
A faster SD card or don't partition it
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
This problem is pretty common,
The way i did it:
If you partitioned using desktop remove the partition format the SD so its back to factory Then insert it into the phone so the phone recognizes it again, then after that partition the SD card again.
If you did it through CWM, Then Format the EXT and the sd card, but make sure you have backed it up first.
Hope this helped.

apps2sd / apps2ext advice needed

I'm practically out of internal storage space and I've only got a handful of apps installed. I'm confused about 'apps2sd' and 'apps2ext', I've tried searching around this forum and other web sites but this has partly added to that confusion.
Firstly, 'apps2sd' and 'apps2ext', are these actually generic phrases that can be used to refer to several different apps / features / methods as opposed to just one app or feature of Android?
Also, I understand that from Froyo onwards some apps2sd capabilities is built in to the OS but this is clearly not enough for probably most people with an S5830i. I've already got the maximum number of my current apps that the OS and apps will allow, stored on my SD card.
So I was thinking of creating an ext3 partition on my SD card for the purpose of moving my apps there. What I'd like to know is once I've done this how do I move all apps, including the data and Davlik cache portions of the apps, onto my SD's ext3 partition? None of the apps I can see on the Android market do this except S2E which requires the CM7/9 ROM.
So can I actually get any apps2ext functionality with the stock ROM at all or is this just not possible?
Can't I symlink the appropriate directories and just move the files? My phone is rooted by the way.

Thanks I'll try giving that a go when I sort another issue out that I now have!
Link2SD app is the solution for low memory on this sgai. I have now more than 60 apps installed and still 40 MB internal memory. See also www.link2sd.info/faq

Flash s2e (in general thread) and move the app to the sd, obviously if you have a partitioned sdcard
If youdon´t have a partition sdcard (like me) you should try moving apps to system to free memory in the data/app . Move the apps to system/app as many as you can but don´t full it.
No i have sd partition and using with s2e have much space but yet when i install it .it shows not enough space .I think adroid 4.2 doest not supports that app

i've got the same conf (rohan007's cm10.1 // annson08's patched s2e // tsf shell) and it works like a charm
[with some other tweaks - not storage related]
everything except app data on sd-ext (but when experimented it worked even whith everything on)
it's probably up to s2e; have you flashed it or installed it like .apk?
hope the above mentioned parameters, or at least the moral support helped

You could also try link2sd for apps and folder mount for games and data.
Don't think any custom roms are available with this mod yet... Only just started to get custom stock Rom, in time maybe.....
