Hey guys, it appears that am a super noob but I actually need some help. My acei is my first Android device meaning am new to this platform.
I being someone who likes a lot of apps being installed at once have the usual memory limit error on my device after some time. So i sorted out into rooting and installing apps that can move applications to sd. I was advised to use link2sd because with it I could install an unlimited number of apps depending on my ext partition and it has many more advantages over the usual app2sd.
(at least, that was what I was told).
But now I have it installed and it seems the info above is all wrong cause my apps are being linked fine but there data are still in the phone memory. Even some apks still exist in the phone partition, i checked it with root explorer. I understand that moving the app data would make my device operate slowly but still the dalvik cache is also much large when I viewed it in the phone partition with root explorer.
Now, my actual problem is that I have just 41 linked apps and 35 installed on sd but still my DROID complains that the memory is low and i cant even update some apps from the market. I keep on clearing my Facebook data over and over but now I finally uninstalled it but still yet my dictionary uses much data and phone keeps on complaining.
I know I can't evade keeping my data on phone partition If I want a faster device but can't I reduce the dalvik cache which is on the phone memory cause it seems it has the largest occupancy of the phone memory. I have a 8gb memory card and I used 1gb as sd ext and there still about 700mb left. Would this space just be of waste? Can't I find a way through this?

And besides I saw some scripts in the forum that could do the work of link2sd but can they do it better? I am actually confused on what to do next as my phone just keeps complaining after I run any app. Please i need advice on what to do next? Thanks.

I highly recommend you using [Script](29/10/2012)Cronmod / Data2sdext (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955422)
Follow instructions in thread.
When I first made EXT partition I installed Link2SD, I linked all apps and instead of internal memory getting decreased it became full. I used this Script (CronMod Unofficial+Data2ext+By Styrke.zip) And it automatically moved EVERYTHING to SD-Ext, I have 97 user apps installed and 22MB Internal memory used!

You must thing about some custom ROM with small data partition used. Think about some barebone soft like simplicity or AceCream. Don't remember what ROM is small but I have same problem as you and I use xxli1 deodexed by alucard. right now I don't see any barebone ROM xxli1 (newest original) so I decided too deodexed original ROM and delete some things in my way. Remember in link2sd are options to move some data, cache and dalvic-cache adter instalatio in menu -> more. There is in that menu options to clear cache and dalvik-cache (it is only remove uninstalled apps.
Sorry for my English

I understand you but my ROM is small enough and has free space left but it's for only apps I want to run as system apps. I have attached a picture of link2sd storage info page. Not that my ROM doesn't have enough space and my sd ext too is spacious but my internal memory is the problem.
As for what you said on the menu –>more of link2sd, i have clicked on all the options earlier. Sometimes before now it worked but now it doesn't clear anything again as there is nothing to clear again. That's what it's always responding now. So i believe it's a dead end with link2sd. Though for reference purposes, am using deodexed xxla2 by rajrocks. Thanks

Yes, I think I don't have any other option than to use one of those scripts on the page but I think the one you recommended would move my app data to sd ext but it was probably stated that if I use it my device would reduce in speed. I don't want to have a laggy device, so I think I would go with the other one that moves dalvik cache, local and app since it seems my dalvik cache is the one taking up most space-113mb.

Yep, am going to try one of those scripts but first of all I have to flash Rafael's latest kernel that supports init.d and i have xxla2 deodexed by rajrocks but I don't know if the rom supports init.d?
If I flash Rafael's latest kernel, would I need to back up my ROM and restore it after the flashing?
And one last question, would I have to still install link2sd back after installing the script?
Am sorry my questions seems too much but I don't want to make any irreversible actions. Thanks all

Install the CronMod Unofficial-By Styrke.zip, it will not make your phone lag, but my doesn't lags a bit I have installed CronMod_Unofficial+Data2ext+By_Styrke.zip, He said it MAY lag.
No you dont need to restore your rom, just make a backup in case anything goes wrong, I think if you install the kernel successfully then cronmod will work fine you dont need to worry about init.d support. No, you dont have to install link2sd, the script automaically moves everything to sd-ext
Yep, thanks for replying. I just looked over Rafael's thread first page now and I don't seem to understand how to go about flashing the kernel.
And he said the kernel comes with razodroid. Is it the 2.5?
I read something about him recommending e3 recovery over Cwm recovery. I don't understand what he means there?
Can someone please put more light into these? thanks

No, the kernel doesn't comes with RazoDroid, you may have gotten confused between RZ Recovery. Currently there are 3 Recovery Softwares available for our phone, namely E3 (Stock Recovery), ClockWork Recovery (CWM), RZ Recovery (RZR). Just download any of the Recovery flash file and follow the instructions accordingly, you will install the kernel and recovery without problems. Good Luck!

Hey, I have flashed Rafael's latest kernel and the modules but now am getting random reboots.
Is there a fix for it or I did something wrong. I rebooted into e3 recovery and flashed the kernel, booted and saw that it was flashed. I went back and flashed the modules and now I have gotten my first random reboot. Besides am running stock deodexed ROM my rajrocks. Please i need help on this. Thanks
EDIT: I didn't clear/wipe anything in my recovery.

The latest kernel isn't that stable, its either you reflash the kernel and change your min CPU frequency to 312mhz or you flash an older version of the kernel. Besides, you didnt specify how you went about doing it and what you were on before flashing the kernel. Reflash the kernel, either through e3 (recommended by Rafael), cwm, rz or you can flash through Odin. The flash files are given.
If I helped you, hit thanks.

I'll try with changing the CPU frequency , and see what happend, hope it's gonna be allright. But afterthat i will try the memory hack, that is why i want that kernel so bad !
For what it's worth, I use Link2SD to link the apk/dex/lib and symlink the seriously large (~40mb for C4Droid, for example) data files (/data/data/...) myself.
LINK just dex and lib files
I have two Questions:
With many apps directly installed on sd card, how do i link just the .dex and .lib files to sd card?
and secondly Does linking apps to sd card affect the sd-card in any way?

Well, it seems you're using link2sd which you didnt actually specify.
Its rather easy, if you've installed so many apps on SD already and you wish to link just their dex and libs file.
You can go about it like this:
*Open link2sd and click on filters, then select SD card to display all apps directly installed on SD card only.
*click on multi select from the options. You will select the apps you wish to link its dex and lib. (You might select all if you want to link all the apps on sd).
*then apply the option to link the selected apps, you would get three options. Don't tick the first one (which is to link the apk), since you don't wish to link the apk. Tick the 2nd and 3rd to link the dex and libs. Just leave link2sd to do the remaining after you click 'link'.
Thats it.
I don't really think linking apps to SD affects the overall performance of the SD card since the linked apps are on a different partition entirely. I had used link2sd before now for a long time and I didn't have problem with my SD cards performance and am still currently using the SD with data 2 sd ext script...
If I helped you, you can click thanks...

Try a different method for linking apps to the partition.

This is a general discussion thread for "Cyanogen Mod 10 (CM10)" for the Sony Xperia T (LT30p) aka "Mint"
Original Dev Thread Here
This is NOT for cm10.1 (4.2+ JB). A discussion thread for 10.1 is HERE
Credit to FXP team Bin4ry, Defer, Kali, Jerpelea
Also credit is due to many other Devs for their tireless work on CM and specifically for Sony devices including but not limited to:
Codeworkx, Androxyde, DoomLord, tilal6991, Entropy512....This list could go on but I'll stop here for now - pm me if you think i should add specific people.! (I don't actually know who all these wonderful people are!!!)
I have mailed people from time to time and found everyone here at XDA to be very helpful, but I have also seen people asking the same questions as me, just in the wrong places or without searching.
So this thread, like any other of it's kind, is just to try and direct a bit of this traffic away from the Development thread.
Please use this thread to ask questions, share knowledge or just state an opinion - so long as you are not inconsiderate, condescending or outright rude - anything goes!
We would all welcome insights and advice from seasoned users or indeed veteran developers, although FXP will most likely not read this often, if ever - so please don't ask them direct questions here!
Personally I don't know much at all about CM10, I am only on my 2nd smartphone having come from an Xperia X10 running CM7.2 - so I hope to learn stuff here too!
Thread Basics:
~~can I install this rom with a locked Bootloader~~ ~~NO~~
~~can you tell me when **** will be fixed~~ ~~NO~~
~~slow download, can you mirror?~~ ~~NO~~
~~can i use sony launcher/timescape/fb intergration on this ROM~~ ~~NO~~
~~can I ask a question?~~ ~~YES~ as someone once told me "Posing a question per se is not stupid. Posing a stupid question is"
Always back-up your current ROM
Nobody here is responsible if you mess your bond phone up, all ROM's, even the best ones, are used at YOUR OWN RISK
Logs, Screen shots, ROM version, apps used or conditions underpinning any questions usually result in quicker answers!
Please comment or mail me with any ideas to improve this thread, it's my 1st real attempt at trying to contribute in some small way to this wonderful community
FAQ:
1 where can I download the latest FXP release? download page on FXP site
2 How do I install? FIRST TIME : Follow this instruction
information about flashtool, fastboot, cwm recovery are widely available. you could Start here
__ 2.a If you already have unlocked your bootloader (which you will need to have done to use CM10 Duh!) AND already have a working Recovery, you only need to use the "install from SD card" option in recovery to install this Rom - thanks to schaggo for pointing this out. However:
__ 2.b It is known that if you are coming from a Stock based ROM you will probably need to format your SD card(s), apart from being time consuming this is not a big deal - just have a back-up of your card contents on your computer, format your card(s) from within the rom or with recovery, then copy your contents back to your card(s)
3. Where do I get Gapps? Try here, you need a 4.1 apps file
4. What is CM, where can I find out about it? Start here and use google for further information.
5. Where can I find more info about FXP? Here is their homepage
6. Where is the Changelog? Here, lists current release and progress for all supported devices
7. How do I report a bug? Here, device, release and issue will be useful information
More to be added as and when...

Good initiative! I installed CM10 after one month of using original ROM and after almost 2 weeks of CM10 I can say it was a wise decision. I am on FXP 150 and most of the issues are fixed. Still waiting for NFC (though I don't have the tags yet) but everything else is OK. What I miss is the original Album app of Xperia T from latest firmware. I tried to install it but it's not working for me (run the installer, the app is not seing the sd card, through CWM or copy to /system/app and changing the permissions, the app stops). Anyone tried? Any hints on how to make it working?
Battery is OK but I am using Google maps that is eating 40-50% of it. Any hints on how to decrease this and still use Maps?

have you formatted your SD card for use with CM? I read that people were having problems with ext.sd card storage and that you needed to back-up your files, wipe and format card in cwmRecovery and then transfer your files back - then you should be able to move apps to SD

Hello all.
Quick question about flashing the kernel.
When I first installed the rom I used the fastboot.exe in command prompt to install the boot.img file as per instruction on op.
Am I right in thinking if there's an update to the kernel I don't need to go through that process again because it will be flashed in cwm with the rom? Or will we be told to flash the new kernel using fastboot.exe in the changelog?
Cheers,
Lunar.

You usually are told when there is a new kernel to flash, changelog will say something about kernel update.
Cwm does not flash kernel, only Rom

Thanks for the info.
I just thought I remembered when I had the x10 the fxp were trying to work out a way of flashing kernels without flash mode. It was quite a risky process though.
Also it looked like fxp151 had a different boot.img to the one included in fxp148 (the first one I flashed), so I flashed the boot.img again from the later release and it had 141212 as the date.
Maybe just me.
Cheers for the info.

Where is the official thread with a buglist / changelog of the stable Cm10 Version for example?
On get.cm I can download nightlies every day and the stable version too but I have no idea who is working on it and how the process is going...
I'm a bit confused since I thought codeworkx and others own this phone and are working in Cm10 support??

Hello Optimus 2X Xda Users!
Informations:
Here is a simple apk to odex automatically, easily and securely deodexed roms.
This apk has been coded by the famous Paul Obrien from Modaco Roms and Forums.
This guy is just a genious.
The original apk has been done for Galaxy S II but it works on P990 O2X (tested working). --> Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215271
Odexing a deodexed rom is giving you a boost in smoothness (you can see it in the launcher or in scrolling through system apps), performance and battery.
It gives you the flexibility to have a custom rom with modified system, framework and design AND all the tweaks that come with a custom rom in addition to the performance of an odexed stock rom.
To use it:
1) Do a nandroid backup in cwm
2) Make sure you have a rooted rom, without root the app won't do much but install.
3) Allow "Unknown sources" by going into Settings > Security > and scroll down.
4) Download the .apk either down below, or from the link above.
5) Install as a normal app.
6) Open the app, make sure you give it root access, and it will run.
7) Let it run, it will reboot your phone, take around 5-10 minutes, and then reboot again. You will be greeted by "Android is upgrading" which means its rebuilding your dalvik cache.
8) Once its at the lock screen, done! You can make sure it did its job by using a file explorer with root access (I use ES File Explorer, if that helps) and go to the root of your phone's memory, go to system > app, and you should see a bunch of "appnamehere".odex files.
It will:
1) reboot your phone
2) odex all the system staying on a black screen or on the Google screen a bit longer than normally (but it's normal)
3) put a ".odex" file with each app in /system/app
4) reboot again
5) go back to home
--> You will then see your boost in smoothness!
For people who are not convinced: check that: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...e-difference-between-odexed-and-deodexed-roms
To see if it worked:
- Go to /system/app folder and see if there is a ".odex extension" for each system apk.

P.S. Please read reports from other users in the thread before trying the apk as some users seem to loose their status bar if they set transparency effects or some of them are having "force closes" if the rom they are using is too much themed...
List of ROMs confirmed working
- DjangoManouche X 1.2.1 V30B (KoB 0.3 NoOC Kernel) (confirmed by me, using it currently - big thanks to carburano. it's amazing rom.)
- [ROM-CM10.1] Android 4.2.1 for LG-P990 for the new ICS bootloader

Hello Optimus 2X Xda Users!
Informations:
Here is a simple apk to odex automatically, easily and securely deodexed roms.
This apk has been coded by the famous Paul Obrien from Modaco Roms and Forums.
This guy is just a genious.
The original apk has been done for Galaxy S II but it works on P990 O2X (tested working). --> Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215271
Odexing a deodexed rom is giving you a boost in smoothness (you can see it in the launcher or in scrolling through system apps), performance and battery.
It gives you the flexibility to have a custom rom with modified system, framework and design AND all the tweaks that come with a custom rom in addition to the performance of an odexed stock rom.
To use it:
1) Do a nandroid backup in cwm
2) Make sure you have a rooted rom, without root the app won't do much but install.
3) Allow "Unknown sources" by going into Settings > Security > and scroll down.
4) Download the .apk either down below, or from the link above.
5) Install as a normal app.
6) Open the app, make sure you give it root access, and it will run.
7) Let it run, it will reboot your phone, take around 5-10 minutes, and then reboot again. You will be greeted by "Android is upgrading" which means its rebuilding your dalvik cache.
8) Once its at the lock screen, done! You can make sure it did its job by using a file explorer with root access (I use ES File Explorer, if that helps) and go to the root of your phone's memory, go to system > app, and you should see a bunch of "appnamehere".odex files.
It will:
1) reboot your phone
2) odex all the system staying on a black screen or on the Google screen a bit longer than normally (but it's normal)
3) put a ".odex" file with each app in /system/app
4) reboot again
5) go back to home
--> You will then see your boost in smoothness!
For people who are not convinced: check that: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...e-difference-between-odexed-and-deodexed-roms
To see if it worked:
- Go to /system/app folder and see if there is a ".odex extension" for each system apk.
I attached the apk to this thread for ease of use.

obviously I could not decide to which category. I checked other "odex me" posts and I decided to open this topic here.
Is the nandroid backup necesary ? And is this thing really worth it ? Like is there any noticeable difference ?

Its not working for me , im gettin the "This application has encountered an error .." error right before rebooting or i think thats the error , since i cant read it fast enoguh before rebooting so ye..any idea whats happening ? The weird thing is that it does everything you say up there , even the "android is upgrading" thingy but it does it for like 36 application . not 126 or so *the actual number i have installed*
EDIT: I have reinstalled it and i didnt got that error anymore, but it still not working like it should had.
EDIT 2: The applications do seem to open faster ... meh idk , im waiting for your answer.

I would like to know too : is it reversible ? What happens when you reflash a rom ? Odex remain or not ?

Sorry. Its just one way ticket. If you want to reverse deodexed version, you can use cwm restore.
If you flash new reodexed rom or upgrade your reodexed rom (like cm nightlies), you can repeat this operation.

What is your custom rom? Is it rooted and deodexed? It seems odexed rom problem.

DM X 1.2.1 OC with KingOfBirds 0.3 kernel OC
This is a guide to root and switch the internal storage to sdcard
Fully working on JB 4.1.1 and 4.1.2
P31xx only
Ideal if you don't want a custom rom
all files a linked through developers posts no direct links to files
Warning all proccedures are done at your own risk
Do Not Cry at me if something goes Belly up Read about each download on devs page before installing
This is for Samsung Galaxy Tab2 GT-P31XX ONLY
Read this guide through from start to end collecting all files you need on the way BEFORE starting
first thing you need is odin 3v1.85
download your version of JB 4.1.x from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-P3110 if your device is not a GT-P3110 change the device on the left hand side to yours
Install via ODIN and download mode
Now we want to root the Tab2 with CF-Autoroot from http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/articles/4...70-p3110-root-android412-xxdma2-jellybean.htm
Install Via ODIN again
Now you have a rooted galaxy tab2
Check if SuperSU is installed if not install from google play now, while at google play install "Root terminal Emulater" we need this later
now we need a new Kernal to be able to swap Storage so Download kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1855700
Download and install Moblie odin from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
copy kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip to your tab2's sd card
open mobile odin accept su request and scroll down to install OTA update, zip and select kkboot-0.5.2-core-p31xx.zip. now select flash firmware. accept all warnings
Device now reboots check new kernal installed in settings/about/kernal
if all ok we now swap storage
open Terminal emulater accept SU
enter the command "setprop persist.customboot.sdcard external" without Quotes
Reboot system
goto settings/storage and now you should have sdcard and internal storage switched round
DO NOT REMOVE SD CARD WITH DEVICE ON
any problems start over
If this was useful please thank each DEV when you download there files i have only collected up the info and made the guide
Re: [Guide] Root and swap internal external card for more storage
Dear op......
You have done a good job......this will save lot of tabs from softbricking while trying to swap sd cards....
One more point if you take this in an positive way...
Since we have implimented the swap features in sungsonicHD rom.....
SWaping sd cards will work in both stock and custom kernel AGNi....
So this proved that swap mod will work in both stock ane custom kernels......
So I feel that it is better to edit point number 9 in op.....only if your willing ....to change.......
Rest its the perfect guide ....nic work.....:thumbup:
any chance this can work on CM10.1 ?

I use this kernal and the setprop to make the tab2 see the external SD as the internal memory so when in settings my device now has 29.71Gb instead of the 4.49 Gb on the tab2 7 8Gb version more space for apps etc

You might want to listen to what I'm saying.
Will this method work on custom rom like slim bean,paranoianandroid,pacman etc? If not plz suggest me other mod. Need very badly :crying:
Thx.:good:
Hi I am not allowed to post in the developers section yet.
Can one of the users of the new Slim ROM or Cyanogen Mod roms for Locked bootloader tell me if they also implement or allow Apps2SD or do you have to use either Folder Mount or Link2SD.
Thanks very much

I've didnt see such option from time when internal memory get more than 5GB.
Only whith apps 5GB of memory is enough. Link2SD or Integrated Apps2SD moved only APK files and datas like saves which is also stored in internal memory. For data files (games obb files for example) you have to use apps like Folder Mount, or mount folders by ownmade script, or "from finger" in Terminal Emulator.
That's a shame I'll stick with stock running version . 257

internal is more than enough... theres app called app2sd or link2sd... those should do it.. but things u have to rmember.. why sony dont put app into sd is it will make the app run slower n laggy... bcos the pathways is bcame complex and the read/write from external is much more slower than internal.. just put music n photo to external.. clear everything except apps into it.. that should do it
That confirms to me that I should stick with what I have currently.
