Removing Link2SD scripts - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Need help people. Am using Stock Based ROM and till date used Link2SD for linking apps 2 sd card.
Now i want to try a different ROM which has cronmod script already installed. The OP suggested me to get rid of Link2Sd script first. Uninstalled Link2Sd and tried to flash ROM again. No Success.
Now can someone please tell me that mere uninstalling Link2sd app removes the script too? Or i need to do something else too?

Wipe your sd-ext partition via cwm (wipe data) and flash a new rom.. you can use your sd-ext partition flasing other scripts as INT2EXT, in my opinion the best sd-ext script

If u formated your sd-ext with cwm. The partition will be ext3 being that most cronmods on roms and only ext4 support!!

A flashable zip for removing the scripts.

That is not everything. This is what the zip does:
deletes /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
checks for /system/bin/debuggerd.bin, deletes /system/bin/debuggerd if debuggerd.bin exists, and renames the debuggerd.bin to debuggerd
deletes /system/etc/init.d/11link2sd

maybe something is wrong with your sd-ext partition, the apk are being installed there because of s2e.
edit; try another format ext2/ext3

Try creating mount script in different format with link2sd. Ext2, ext3, fat32 one will work.

Try manually editing the mount script.
I don't really remember where the link2sd mount script was created for stock roms without /init.d i think it was in a file called init.d at the root of the phone or system/ or system/etc.
Look it up, open it as text, locate the link2sd mount script.
The part where it says 'mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/block' change 'ext3' to 'ext4' in all lines required, reboot. Check link2sd again to see if it worked.
Otherwise, enable the system/etc/init.d address by flashing cf-root or flash a custom rom.

Are you sure about having a kernel with init.d support? Without it, script can't be mounted.

Link2sd doesn't need /init.d, only root and partitioned sd to work.

If u use permanent cwm ur sd-ext partition wil b backed while taking a nandroid backup.
For link2sd make ext3 partition on ur sd card. I hope u kno hw to make partitions on sd card. If nt search on google.

Actually, there are many opinions about Ext partitions and which one is the best.
I'd personally suggest you read more about them yourself (ext2, ext3, ext4).
Ok.
I make sd-ext3 using cwm, but when I make backup the cwm can't find sd-ext ??
Why ??
are there any way that allow me to backup my sd-ext, and then restore if anything happened ?

Ok, I've created the partitions in CWM, flashed my rom again with factory reset, vie Settings -> Performance -> Memory managmet -> A2SD I set ti to A2SD, gave the system root access, rebooted the phone and the sd-ext partiton is not mounted. I've installed the link2sd app, and choose ext3 partition, which is set by CWM, and the app say
Can't mount: Invalid Argument
Your system maybe not supporting ext3 or somthing like that.
So how to mount the damn sd-ext partitions.
P.S. I've tried via terminla with df | grep sdext3 no luck.

Or ext4, maybe there is issue with ext3 partitions and this rom. I've read an article that said that, ext4 partitions are not well supported, ext2, ext3 are supported with most of the roms
Edit: Now I saw that after reboot, A2SD is set back to none. Maybe I am having the superuser issue. I've flashed the fix, and will try again.

then try ext2
As I know CWM (in ics and jb kernels) creates ext4, so choose ext4 in link2sd and it should work fine.

Cannot Mount Ex3 Partition with CWM

I created an ex3 partition (1gb) using minitool partition wizard for using Link2SD application. But cwm cannot mount the new partition, so naturally Link2SD can't see the partition. I'm using Acecream rom 1.4.
What can i do?
CWM should not mount the second partition, Link2SD has to do that.

Format sd-ext from cwm recovery. It will format it in ext-3 format by default. Then try to get it detected in link2sd. If cwm can't format sd-ext, then try formatting sd-ext using minitool again. May be the first time partition was not created correctly. You may also try to format it in ext2 format as well and then test it.
CWM could not format the partition that i created with minitool. Because I tried re-create, shrink and reformat (also changing ext3 to ext2) but still same. As far as i understand CWM can't do format process because can't mount partition.
Link2SD should ask for creating mount scripts. Select "Ext3", then you will be asked for rebooting your phone, reboot.

Yes, Link2SD asked for mount and I selected ext 3, but it couldn't do that . It gave an error something like "unable to mount....".
I want to ask someting different. What happens if I don't create ext3 partition? Link2SD now can move the aplications on SD card. What is the benefit of creating Ext 3 partition?
MOVING to the SD card is only moving a part of the application.
LINKING to the SD card is moving the whole application (apk, dex, lib).
In Link2SD, click on menu, select more, recreate mount scripts, and select ext2.
If that doesn't work, try again and select another one.

Make sure that the ext3 partition is a primary partition not a logical partition.
