How do you increase internal memory of Samsung Galaxy Ace - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First of all reboot your phone to Recovery Mode then go to Advance option and then partition SD Card and select any size you want I recommend 512 MB as it can hold most of the things you want to install. Then wait until it finished partitioning process (REMEMBER TO BACKUP ALL YOUR SD DATA BEFORE PARTITIONING AS IT FORMATS YOUR SD IN THE PROCESS) and then download any of the scripts I recommend CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed (Download it from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124 ) as it supports EXT 2/3/4 filesystems and then copy it onto the root of your SD then go to mount settings in Recovery Mode and then mount sd-ext and then select install zip from SD Card then select CronMod-INT2EXT+_signed.zip and flash it then just reboot and you should have increased internal memory.
Here is the link to the video in which I flash Ultimatum The "A" Factor ROM and then increase the internal memory of Samsung Galaxy Ace S-5830.

Please extract the 40int2ext file to init.d folder then reboot and then tell me what happens... :highfive:

zxyvw, Why are you asking for using a sd-ext partition if you opened your own thread explaining how to increase the internal memory space??
THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT SITE TO POST THIS TUTORIAL...

Try my new method it is guaranteed by me to work... If it doesn't jump off a building...

when I try to install it, it gives me Status 2,

Partitioning SD Card to Increase Internal Memory
Hey Guys,
(For this to work your phone must be rooted)
To increase the Internal Memory of Galaxy Ace is really easy. You don't need to do all these time killing steps. Just do as I do.
You can do this by Partitioning your SD Card. This means having a separation in your SD Card to store apps. Follow these steps :
1) Download Mini Tool Partition Wizard 7 on your PC.
2) Connect your SD Card to PC by an SD Card Adapter or connect your phone to PC by a USB Cable.
3) Open Mini Tool Partition Wizard.
4) You'll see a Disk 2 Region. In that you'll see your SD Card.
5) Right click on it and select Delete.
6) It'll show your SD Card as Unallocated.
7) Right click on it again and select Create.
8) A new Window opens.
In that, put the data as the following :
Partition Label : (As you wish)
Create as : Primary
File System : FAT32
Cluster Size : Default
Drive Letter : (As you wish)
Size and Location : Put Partition Size as the size of the SD Card you want.
The Unallocated size will be the size of your Partition.
9) Click OK
10) You'll see the Apply button on the Top-left Corner. Click on it. (Don't put your system in Power Saving Mode)
11) Wait for the procedure to be completed.
12) Now, Download Link2SD.apk on your system and move it to your SD Card.
13) Close every thing and Switch On your phone with the SD Card in it.
14) Install Link2SD.apk and open it.
15) Follow every thing as it says and restart your phone.
16) After that Select the app you want to move to the Partion.
17) Click on Create Link.
18) Move as much apps as you like...!
Hope that this helped you guys. Thanks :fingers-crossed:

Exactly. Link2SD always worked better than any script for me.
Also, you can get it from the android market.

This worked great for me.. thanks for the help.. but I have a problem, I wanted to flash a kernel (from MHNK to BE1.6) but after flashing the kernel, I lost all the partition and my installed apps, I only wiped cache partition and dalvik cache in cwm. Do I have to do anything (like mount sd-ext) before flashing the kernel? But luckily I backed up my rom before flashing the kernel thus got back my partition. Help me please..

I would recommend that you mount everything except USB Storage and then try to flash the kernel... If it still doesn't work please don't be shy to ask me... :good:

i'm going to try this, i already increased my internal memory but the script was already on the rom

165mb left in a rom is a quite much. After i installled 100++ apps+games, it still has 130mb left. (None of the apps is moved to the SD)

*PLEASE FULLY READ THIS BEFORE TAKING ACTION*
*I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DATA AND PHONE! I'm just try my best to help you.*
OMG? too long's post? then go 2nd post which is shorter
Sounds impossible? But it is possible!
Wondering how??? Lets start.
What you must have
Hardware: Rooted HTC Wildfire, Micro SD Card, Card reader
1st, You need a wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1 (V0.6 gives 165mb, v0.7 160mb, v0.8 102mb[without cache move to ext]) Wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1 download page
2nd, Make sure that you BACKUP your SD card (copy whole SD card to computer).
3rd, Move wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1 that you have already downloaded to the SD card (DONT delete the copy in computer).
4th, You need to WIPE ALL THE DATA (wipe/factory reset) in your wildfire and make sure that you have already made a backup of your rom before wiping.
5th, Make sure that you backup your SD card with your BACKUP (backup-ed rom).
6th, Run in recovery mode and select wipe/factory reset the data.
7th, Choose install zip from SD and install your wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1.
8th, After your rom has successfully copied to the system (phone), reboot your phone and wait for a few minutes. (it may take up to 10minutes)
9th, Now simply set up your data (you may ignore them, you don't need it).
10th, Go in to the rom manager, and choose partition SD. Default is ok. (I use 512mb, swap 0mb)
11th, Now your SD card will be wiped and will be partitioned.
12th, Now shut down your phone (take the battery out).
13th, Take out your SD card and copy your wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1 to SD once again (make sure your phone is FULLY OFF).
14th, Now select system wipe (wipe/factory reset). [Dont worry about the partition, it won't format SD card]
15th, Install the wildpuzzle rom 2.2.1 once again and wait for a few minutes.
16th, After successfully installed, you can set up your personal info. Now go to menu > setting > sd and phone storage > and you will see 160mb++ left.
17th, Now you can ignore the move to SD, you can leave all the apps in phone but after you have fully installed your apps, try to reboot. It will takes UP TO 10 MINUTES to move the apps to ext [It will take quite a long time, dont worry].
[P.S. It DOESN'T move the apps to sd, your apps still in phone, it only move 9/10 of the file size (MB) to ext and reduce the size in phone. So you have more available space in phone.]
18th, You're done!
Please go menu > setting > SD & Phone storage > and check available space.
IF IT IS LESS THAN 160MB, THERE IS PROBLEMS, please try again
*PLEASE CONTINUE READING*
***Something that you cant do***
1st, Mount as disk drive in USB is working.
[If you hate taking the SD out, here is the solution. Use Dropbox, a apps that you can download in your phone and computer. You can upload files to dropbox and download in phone. So nothing to worry about mp3.. files.. and games..]
2nd, DON'T simply take out the SD card without FULLY shut down the phone.
3rd, DON'T press unmount SD. Your phone will not working and hang.
If you need to move apps from computer to SD, FULLY shut down the phone and take out your SD and use a card reader.
What if partition not working? Showed >> [a Triangle with a Exclamation point]
1st, try take out your battery and try reboot and partition it again.
2nd, if it is still not working after several tries, try to go market and download the ROM Manager in market.
After partition, your files still in SD card?
1st, try go partition again.
2nd, your phone isn't root yet.
3rd, try another SD card.
When you want to connect your SD card by using Card Reader, it shows "You have to format before using it"
1st, try to get a new Card Reader.
2nd, try another SD card.
I need to change the size of my ext, How??
1st, backup your phone
2nd, copy SD to PC
3rd, go menu > setting > sd and phone storage > unmount SD > format sd
4th, create partition
5th, copy SD from PC
6th, go recovery, restore your phone
7th, all ext and files will restore to ext.
8th, restart and done.
I want cache move to ext. what should i do??
Use this code to move cache to ext.
You may install 0.6 rom then install 0.8 rom without wiping the old rom. And ext partition still working.
if not, you need to use this.
Code:
a2sd cachesd (move dalvik to sd card)
a2sd cachesdreset (move dalvik to sd card and clears contents of dalvik-cache)
a2sd cachepart (move dalvik to cache partition)
a2sd cachepartreset (move dalvik to cache partition and clears contents of dalvik-cache)
I want the apps that have in Wildpuzzle rom 0.6, and 0.8 doesn't have it. How???
Dont worry, you can create your own update zip or apps and install it by visiting How to create your own zip?

So some of you guys think that OMG, why there is no use trackpad to wake? zzz... I want it.. but how??

Use this code to move cache to ext.
You may install 0.6 rom then install 0.8 rom without wiping the old rom. And ext partition still working.
if not, you need to use this.
You must have a2sd script install and type these code in terminal emulator.
Type su, it will have the superuser permission and type these code in depends on what you want to move.
Code:
a2sd cachesd (move dalvik to sd card)
a2sd cachesdreset (move dalvik to sd card and clears contents of dalvik-cache)
a2sd cachepart (move dalvik to cache partition)
a2sd cachepartreset (move dalvik to cache partition and clears contents of dalvik-cache)

Hi melvinchng :
You did a great job.
But i have a little suggestion.
Since the rom mnnager only 3 options (128M 256M 512M),if i want to partition at difference size, it cannot be done at RM.
So partition SD card before install the ROM, (use Gparted or others,1 for fat32,1 for ext2 or ext3 ),then it can shorten the steps,
just install ROM once.
Thanks.
The reason for more space is because dalvik cache has been moved to sd

Yes, you can do what you want, but there is more complicated because you don't use MB, but cylinders.
There is small tutorial chow use fdisk if you want: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/fdisk_partitioning.html

hi really good tutorial but i got a prob i followed this step bye step but it nt worked properlly think i only got a 101 mb left and when i install apps they install on phone memory any advice welcome:d
or shud i just do dtapp2sd?????
I have found the stability of the system gets compromised when important apps like home start running off the sdcard. The sdcard deteriorates with usage faster than internal memory. So overall, be careful of running everything off sdcard. Nice to see free space but not at cost of stability.

No difference, if u move to sd, after reboot, u need to wait for SD card to prepare the apps. If u put in phone memory, the apps is in the phone once u reboot. u save a lot of time on waiting apps from sd

Instead of int2ext+ do this , it is more convenient , easy , simple to use !
USE LINK2SD card for this from market after doing the below steps
Make sure u read twice before u take action
Partition your sd-card:
Simplest way is to use "MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" from http://www.partitionwizard.com/download.html
This tool is compatible with Windows 2000/XP/Vista & Windows 7
requirements: USB SD Card reader.
pull SD card from phone, insert into USB SD Card reader,you can do it with your usb cable mount Sd-crad. Windows should report new drive and content of the drive should be visible.
• step 1: delete old partitions on SD card
Note: this partition manager QUEUES the operations. So nothing is deleted and changed UNTIL you click "APPLY" and then confirm by clicking "OK".
WARNING!
Make sure you are deleting partition on SD card! (not your hard drive for example)
This step deletes everything on SD card, so backup files first!
Dont be afraid, just read everything and think twice before selecting correct drive.
Do you see three gray icons on the bottom? Under each of them the capacity of each drive is listed, and SD CARD has slightly different icon.
Hard drives on the screenshot have 465.8GB and 74.5GB, and on the bottom, the SD card, with 3.8GB capacity.
• step 2: create FAT or FAT32 partition “ note that this partition is for storing your media, etc..”
select "Create As": PRIMARY
Select "File System:" FAT when you have 2GB or smaller card.
Select "File System:" FAT32 when you have 4GB or greater card.
• step 3: select the 2nd partition and select "Create As": PRIMARY
NOTE:
Stock roms with stock kernel will support fat32
Stock roms with custom kernels “ like CF-Root” may support both fat32/ext4 “check their threads”
Cm7/cm9 roms will support ext4
Here Is a NOTE:
For a wired reason, in both cm7/cm9 roms if formatted your 2nd partition with ext4 format, link2sd wont create mount script, unless you have selected ext3 “although the format was converted to ext4”
• step 4: finish
finally, click "apply" button on top left corner.
partitions will be created and card will be formatted.
Reattach your sd card to your phone and turn it on. (you can also do it With usb Connection )
*HIT THANKS IF I HAVE HELPED YOU* :laugh:
Thanks, I already done that sd partition. I think it has install correctly, found it in etc/init.d/folder>40initxxx.The Rom is fast n smooth but
battery drains real fast. Good day.

[Q] SD partitioning

Hy everybody,
My question is at the bottom
Internal memory is not enough on galaxy ACE ? sd card can be partitioned and used with "llink2sd" as internal memory.
I did :
- Using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition I partitioned SD card to two primary fat32 partitions.
- I rebooted my phone with sd card in it
- EXPECTED it to be mounted correctly, to run Link2SD to format second partition to ext3 or keep it fat32 or wathever.
BUT :
Android says that sd card is damaged
Reasons :
- Android expects one partition formatted in FAT32 with no MBR (?) in the begining of the memory :silly:
Solution :
- Partition memory with a tool that can tell Android how to read MBR or how to deal with multi partition sd card. tools like Rom manager.
My question is, is there another way to tell Android how to deal with my sd card ? without changing the rom ? using for example terminal emulator ? or can you please explain to me how I can use Rom manager to partition ? cause I didn't succeed with it.
and pleeease I'm just fed up with answers like :
"but why do you need to partition ?"
"why don't u just use app2sd ?"
"why don't you get a girlfriend instead of spending all your time on a phone that you hate ?"
NB : I updated my phone manually to 2.3.6 then rooted it. I don't want to use custom roms EXCEPT if you give me a hint about the best roms arround
Thank you in advance
I used cwm to partition my sd card and it works fine

1. you can re-partition your sd card to one partition (FAT, I think) by partitioning software
2. boot Clockworkmod recovery (Home + Power)
3. Advanced > partitioning sd card
4. Choose how much you want
5.done
6.Finally I suggest you install PSN Memory Mod

No you only need to install PSN.
It is a DATA2EXT SCRIPT. I am happy with it.
I prefer SD-EXT > 1GB, its enough, and you need a Class 6 sdcard

Hy everybody,
My question is at the bottom
Internal memory is not enough on galaxy ACE ? sd card can be partitioned and used with "llink2sd" as internal memory.
I did :
- Using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition I partitioned SD card to two primary fat32 partitions.
- I rebooted my phone with sd card in it
- EXPECTED it to be mounted correctly, to run Link2SD to format second partition to ext3 or keep it fat32 or wathever.
BUT :
Android says that sd card is damaged
Reasons :
- Android expects one partition formatted in FAT32 with no MBR (?) in the begining of the memory :silly:
Solution :
- Partition memory with a tool that can tell Android how to read MBR or how to deal with multi partition sd card. tools like Rom manager.
My question is, is there another way to tell Android how to deal with my sd card ? without changing the rom ? using for example terminal emulator ? or can you please explain to me how I can use Rom manager to partition ? cause I didn't succeed with it.
and pleeease I'm just fed up with answers like :
"but why do you need to partition ?"
"why don't u just use app2sd ?"
"why don't you get a girlfriend instead of spending all your time on a phone that you hate ?"
NB : I updated my phone manually to 2.3.6 then rooted it. I don't want to use custom roms EXCEPT if you give me a hint about the best roms arround
Thank you in advance

Welcome to the forum.
Our Ace (and other phones) doesn't recognize a SD card partitioned with MiniTool Partition Wizard.
Instead download CWM 5 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1291327
Then turn the phone off. Reboot into recovery mode by holding the power and the home button till the Samsung logo appears for the second time. Choose apply update from SD card and install CWM.
Reboot into recovery again. This time there should be the CWM recovery.
Select Advanced > Partition sdcard
But backup the data on your SD card using your computer before doing that and restore them afterwards.
Then reboot the phone and Link2SD and the OS will recognize the card. However, this method will create an ext partition which is better for that use.
For ROMs:
This is the best I have found so far: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173576
If you want Cm, try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212438 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2199575

NEVER use ROM Manager on this phone! It will hard-brick it which will be the very end of the phone as the hardware will be destroyed!!!

Works with any kernel, any Rom. But backup everything on your memory card before partitioning. Partitioning erases everything on it. And by the way, if the commands I gave on my thread haven't worked for you, check for my previous post on the thread. These commands must work on gingerbread and the ones in op should work for cm10.1

Actually, you can use Minitool Partition Wizard to be use with Link2SD.
First make sure your phone is rooted.
Second, by using minitool make 2 partition on sd card.
First Partition make sure It PRIMARY and file system is FAT32
Second Partition also make sure it PRIMARY and file system is EXT3 or EXT4
(I would like to recommend EXT3 because many roms support this file system)
Install the Link2SD, open the app, select the file system and reboot.
You will get your Link2SD worked.
ps : How about using Final S'Periance rom with Memory Mod kernel. Just do the SD Card Partition and flash the rom. All your problem with internal memory will gone.

DON'T DO THIS!
Link2SD will work but your first partition won't be recognized, at least in Jelly Bean.

You're in luck. Recently a good s2e for 4.2.2 has been developed (But the game data your talking wont be a problem, because game data is anyway saved on your sd card)
First in CWM go to Advanced>>partiton sd card>>(choose your partition size but depending on your sd card size choose a suitable value. For a 2gb Card dont choose more than 256 mb and so on)>>as for swap size if you have a card of class 6 or higher then only vreate one (for virtual RAM- you can find many guides online)
Download s2e from this link, it has a good ui for new learners so its no problem also.:laugh:

Did u have any link2sd or s2e or any such related scripts before installing this?
You must make sure there are no such scripts in the init.d folder.
I would suggest u do a fresh partitioning of your sd card, wipe your device and freshly install the ROM and then do the procedure for installing the script as mentioned in the original thread. And i suggest you use "fixed-int2ext+ for android 4.2..1". "Int2ext" (without "+") slows down the device.
Also, make sure you mount /system, /data and /sd-ext before flashing the script. And format /sd-ext after flashing the zip
Please tell me the procedure that you followed.
Let me know and I'll provide more detailed steps if you are not able to find them in the original thread.

Oh Sorry dude wish i could help u better.. did u try after re-partitioning sd card ??

I have ROOT yet I have minimal internal memory?

I have just ROOTED my S5830 and installed app2SD in the hope of moving as many aps as possible to my SD card.
I tried Link2SD but I had problems and it would not transfer anything, even if I formatted my SD card with CWM.
I was sucessful with app2SD but for some reason I was only allowed to move 2 apps to my SD card.
At this point I had 62Mb of free memory on my phone. I only installed one app, Angry Birds, and this reduced my free memory to 19Mb of free memory. The app was transferred to the SD card.
So where am I going wrong?
I have done everything possible to free up my phone memory but I am not allowed to transfer anything.

Have you partition your memory card ??? Link2sd is only work with partitioned memory card.

My SD card is partitioned. I've used minitools, gparted and the partitioning tool on my phone.
Is there something that I should be doing besides getting link2sd on Google.Play?
So far I can only transfer 3 apps, which isn't all that helpful with my limited phone storage space.
Flash stock rom via odin and try all steps again. I think
your internel storage is used by any big custom rom.BTW Which Rom you are using now stock rom or custom rom ???
Hit Thanks if i help,
Sent from cooperve.
easy steps for your brother
1 choose a good cm or custom or stock as you wish
2 if you wanna stay on current rom stay on it
3 uninstall all apps on sd card or internal memory
4 go to recovery
5 wipe cache
6 wipe dalvik cache
7 format cache
8 format sd card
9 go to advanced option and create a second partition of any size {prefer making till 512 mb and if more than only up to 1 gb}
10 if you are using stock rom then search for a kernel which support ext partition support and int.d support
11 flash that kernel if on stock rom
12 reboot into recovery and mount system in mount and storage option
13 choose the script from install from sd card and flash it after it clear cache partition {not dalvik cache] and reboot
14 have a nice smile on your face
best of luck
HIT THANKS COS I HAVE TYPED SO MUCH AND YOU JUST HAVE TO HIT A BUTTON
