Does anybody ever tried to link apps to a FAT32 partitioned sd? Let me know if you want
Inviato dal mio GT-S5830
I recommend to link apps to ext2/3/4 partitions.

ext format is faster and more stable than fat32
Ya, I started using it on my lg l3 before I used SDMerge.
I was having issues with link2sd not recognizing my ext partition so I used fat 32 for both partitions instead n it worked fine
Also did the same on an Alcatel OT 918 without a problem

well, It can be... I recommend you int2ext script to avoid the GUI, to links apps, It is more simple, less memory usage, no updates, no troubles, more useful

Nice, thnx 4th heads up.
But wat xactly does int2ext do? Is it lyk link2sd which creates a link to the partition? Or sdmerge which merges the internal mem to the system mem?

Int2ext mount your sd-ext partition to /data, so you get your sd-ext partition size as internal memory xDDDD
Look at official thread
You only need init.d folder, and It works in Stock and Custom roms

But I didn't want an increase in internal memory using ext SD card (wat int2ext does) only an increase in system memory using the internal memory (wat sdmerge does)

Why do you need more system memory?¿
All your apps are installed in /data partition :S but well, yourself

Because I noticed that when I was on stock rom, and I installed an app, most of it was saved to system mem n some of it allowed to b moved to SD ryt?
Then I installed link2sd n it allowed mo app to b linked to SD , but after a while the sys mem still got low because some part of an app was still stored in the says mem.
So I needed an Incs in sys mem so that I don't hv to link or move anything to SD, n that's wea sdmerge helpd me

The apps are installed in /data, not in /system... (not system apps)
You can wipe data partition to clean the partition and then restore the apps you want using TB (e.g.) only SYSTEM APPs are installed in /system, i.e. the apps which the rom contains, not the apps you install from market, files.apk... so
You need to be root, mount /system partition as R/W and set the permissions to install an app in /system, I mean your internal usable memory by default is /data partition xDDDD
Hmmm
So, not even a tiny bit of th app will b stored on sys? all will b on th ext partition??...I'm a bit skeptical ;D ;D but I'll take ur word for it n gv it a go

mmm... well int2ext is an universal script so It may work in your rom
I posted the official thread here (in this thread) look at this, but It's really simple to install
Thanks to ANYONE that answered my question After all of this discussion I think I'll patch my kernel in order to use a ext4 partiton as internal memory with a 2gb partition so bye bye to memory problem and maybe get a little boost in terms of performance with 180mb of swap memory. What do you think about?
Int2ext script requires some memory in /data to work and you can get only about 512mb of partition because of this requirement, am I right?

I don't like to use swap partition, for me It isn't neccessary, swap can ruin your sdcard but yeah you can increase a little bit your performance, so you choose
And about int2ext, you can create a sd-ext partition in ext4 format with XGb/Mb you want if you create an ext4 partition with 1 GB you'll have almost a Gb mounted to /data so your internal memory will be almost 1Gb size, In my opinion it's more than enough xDDD but 512Mb isn't the limit and It doesn't requires nothing, only init.d folder (all custom roms have this folder) and to flash the script

Is there any limit to the number of application that can be installed to this device?
I'm using app2sd Amarullz script. I've tried Darktremor and also s2e.
But after I installed a lot of applications (only takes about 200MB of my ext partition), I can't install anything more. Everytime I tried, it always get reboot while installing.
but after I remove some apps, I can install it.
i had like 304 apps installed...but no reboot when tried to add new ones...in fact the only thing that happened to me was extreme lags
what a2sd u are using?

have not tried amarullz, but ur prob is sd-ext is mounted as read only and not read write.(check using rootexplorer or by any other means)
but u say after u uninstall some u can install again? i dont know abt that.

yes, after I uninstall some, I can install some. That's why i think the problem is application number or too much partition size that the device can't handle?
I've make a smaller partition of ext4. now it's about 800MB.
and 300MB swap.
why u change u'r partition?
i have 1,1 GB ext4 and only 100MB swap.

I've opened Root Explorer and open /sd-ext. It's r/w.
that's should be right that, isn't it?
I have more than 250 apps, and i'm having problems - launcher forced close.
Problems disappear if i remove - or quarantine/freeze - apps.
Seeem to me that it's worst with apps that scan for apps list - titanium backup, or others apps manager.
I do not use any a2sd progs - just the native 'move to sd' feature, with the hack to bypass original settings, used to mov e in SD freezed (unused) apps.
Another - separate - issue is memory occupation...
Seem to me that updating apps do not remove the older apps - this is surely true with ROM apps - so i get a lot of memory wasted.
Another - separate - issue is RAM, or run-time memory... Android should manage it on its own - but still i'm not so confident that errors do not occurs with heavy load.
I thinj maybe the prob is your sdcard. Try purchase highend sdcard like classt10

I don't quite understand what script are you talking about. Is it the one in the CWM. Anyway can I ask how to move app or dalvik cache to SD-ext? I tried moving apps from data/app to sd-ext/app/ and all my apps doesnt work? I think I need the S2E app but I don't think andro-Id can download it. I checked yagya's blog and it says I got to flash it in CWM and someone says that it's not working. Is there other ways to move it?
as you are a beginner you should use link2sd app it will automatically install script and after a reboot you will be able to move the apps to that partition
or read more about dark tremor a2sd script

what did u select in CWM ext3 or ext4 ???
It did not ask me to select anything. It just say 100+mb 200+mb and others. And i already selected ext4 and i linked all the apps i want but it still doesn't free space at the internal memory. Is this how im suppos to move the apps?

and what you selected you should have selected atleast 1gb ext4 space
I selected 100mb cause my sdcard space is only 2gb
And i say this sdext2 file in my data/
So should i choose ext2 on link2sd?
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium
you should buy a bigger sdcard 100 MB space is like nothing even the internal memory is around 178 MB
and it should not be sd-ext 2 it should be 3 or 4

1) create a partition using CWM in advance section of recovery(swap size 0 M) 512 mb is sufficient
2)download app link2sd from market
3)open it...and choose partition type of ur choice (ext4 works well )
4)finally click on any app saved in internal memory and click on CREATE LINK
5)You are done! :beer:
Ask if any problem...
Press thanks if i helped :thumbup:
Ext2/Ext3 is pretty much the same using default settings (unless you enable journaling in ext3). Ext4 adds journaling.
Ext2 is the most friendly for SD life. Ext4, not as much, but it has other perks (GIYF).
Also, you might want to show apps installed on the SD Card, select them all then Create Link first. It'll save you some extra space and re-enable widgets if available. Then you can move your internal apps if you want.

Once you have Link2SD installed, you can select "SD Card" as a filter. It will show all apps installed on the SD card. It would be a good idea to link these apps ("Create Link") (thus moving them back to phone storage, and then again to the SD Card, but to the 2nd partition this time) for three reasons:
You can move the dalvik-cache as well, which means you'll save extra space.
If the app has widgets, you'll be able to use them again (e.g. SoundHound).
Should you mount your SD card to the PC, the apps will still be available since the 2nd partition doesn't get mounted.
I've tested Link2sd.. Only Ext2 gets detected and mounted to be used in Link2sd.. Ext3/4 doesn't get mounted.( I'm using the Stock kernel)
On stock kernels ext3 and ext4 not always work, fat32 or ext2 always work. Its ok, won't make a real difference, the class of the sd card has way more impact on performance.
If you want you can create partition (with ext4) with minitool partition on your pc. (see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning)
Same problem, even if partition is formatted as ext4, Link2SD defaults to ext2. I have had a few times where it loses link by itself and all linked apps stops working.
Ext4
If you want to get your ext4 mounted. You must make a partition as ext4 to (I use partition wizard).. Not ext3, or ext2, or either..
I am sorry for my bad english..

Hi,
Link2sd can not link all data to sdcard. It leaves files in \data.
Some apps use cache, and it is stored also in the external memory. There is an option in link2sd, where you can delete cache.

I never used cronmod, but as i know, it mounts the partiton like it would be internal mem. I think you should move back the apps what are linked, and before u use cronmod, delete link2sd.

Hello, I am new to SD-ext and Link2SD and such things, I googled around a little and found the most suitable solutions for the internal memory shortage of CM10.1 is either Link2SD or INT2EXT+
Now I want to ask, which is better at performance, more stable?
I would have went around experimenting as they say but the problem is that I don't know how to remove either of them, so please tell me that too, so if I didn't like one of them I remove it and try the other.
That's all for now, thanks in advance!
I would suggest int2ext, because effectively it increases the size of your internal storage instead of moving apps to sd. As long as you have a class 10 or better sd, you won't notice any difference in performance.

Unluckily I don't have a class 10 SD right now and I doubt my ability to get one for a while. Currently having a Class 4 16GB SD, what do you think would work best?

You can still use int2ext, but you will get a quite noticeable performance decrease. Just test it! To remove just go to system/etc/init.d, then you can just remove its files.

I actually tried Link2SD (With a EXT4) but it didn't read or create a script. I googled, people said use EXT2, so I just said, since it didn't work, let's try INT2EXT.
I flashed it (without removing Link2SD) and nothing changed...
I, just now, removed Link2SD and restarted: no changed.
What do you advice me to do? ((I think the problem is because this ROM doesn't support EXT4, but I am not sure of course))

Int2ext needs ext 4. After removing link2sd, you should reposition your sd to ext 4. And which Rom you have? Because current ones are all sporting init.d, so they support sdext.

Link2sd work fine with me on CM7 or CM10.1
On your cm7 you should set allow installing data on sd card and in settings of link2sd should be set on automatic

so while using link2sd try recreating mount script as ext4

Link2sd work fine with me on CM7 or CM10.1
On your cm7 you should set allow installing data on sd card and in settings of link2sd should be set on automatic
Ext2 on link2sd work fine with me

Would you mind writing me a little guide of what you did to install it on CM10.1?
(I will try EXT2 if everything you have done I tried.)

Well, seems I should really change it from EXT4 to 2, I guess that's what I will try.
Thanks everyone so far! :good:
Since you have the latest CM10.1 nightly.. I suggest u try this..
Take a complete back up of your SD card.
Make sure u have uninstalled any apps and removed any scripts related to link2sd and such scripts. (When there's any doubt whether the old scripts would cause any problem, i always prefer wiping the device and freshly installing the rom to avoid any mistakes)
If u do not have any problem flashing the ROM again, i really suggest u to do so and then do the below steps. Definitely should work.
Reboot into recovery mode.
Go to advanced option and select SD partitioning option
Select the partition size as 1024mb and swap size as 0mb.
Proceed with partitioning.
Reboot your device.
Save fixed-int2ext+ for android 4.2..1 by CronicCorey on the root of your SD card..
Boot into recovery again.
Go to mounts and storage option and mount data, system and sd-ext.
Go to install zip from SD card.. Choose zip from SD card.. Select the int2ext+ script.
After installation.. Go to mounts and storage and unmount data and system and format sd-ext.
Now reboot the device and check.. It'll be done.
I have done this many times and it's worked. I use 16gb class 4.. No issues.. Smooth for me..
After installing this script.. Make sure u dont wipe dalvik cache using recovery mode. Your device will get into boot loop.. Use wipe dalvik cache script specifically created for int2ext by croniccorey..
