[TUT]Partition SD using rom manager

Hello
After running into troubles partitioning my SD using rom manager, i fiddled and found the fx for me!
Problem: use rom manager to partition sd and select sizes, phone reboots to complete actions and then clockworkmod recovery shows the yellow error triangle about signatures.
solution: goto goto install update from sd and then choose the option to disable signatures come back out of there and then goto advanced options then reboot recovery, this will then successfully partition the sd.
as i said i did not find this information anywhere, if it is double post i apologise, i am just trying to be helpful.
regards

Youre a genius! thanks so much i was having so much trouble with this partitioning my sd card!

Thank you,
I tried to overclock for days...

not all apps can be moved to the sd card, you'll know you have app2sd, by looking at how much free phone memory you have , you will notice only a slight decrease in phone memory due to dling browser cache, facebook cache or market etc.

i am still getting same yello triangle, seems to me bermuda for me.
do we need to diable the toggle script as well? or just the signatures?

[Q] How to delete CWM backups?

I have a few too many CWM backups atm, how do you delete them? cant find them on my sd card and there's no option in recovery that I know off? hmmm

The backups are folders on your SD card in the ClockworkMod/backups folders.

Cheers Thankyou

[Q] Installing directly on external sd

I think the internal SD card of my i9000 is corrupted. I've tried everyting: wiped/factory reset, reinstalling Cyanogenmod10, installing Stock ROM, installing stockrom with re-partitioning on etc. Nothing works. I'm using odin to reinstall the stock ROM. Flashing the stock ROM to my phone goes well, but then when I restart and android is installing, I get error messages like:
/can't mount sd card
After reading a lot on XDA, my conclusion is: broken internal storage.
Now I want to install everything on my external SD. So I bought a 8GB cat10 SD card.
Found this XDA-post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1893354 Seems very promising, but I seem to get stuck on '-- Extract initramfs from zImage ( https://github.com/mistadman/Extract-Kernel-Initramfs )'. I;ve got a virtual machine running Ubuntu. When I start the script, nothing happens..... the terminal just closes.
The easiest solution for my problem would be a ROM that is altered to directly install on my external SD. I red somewhere that ROMS like that exist. Can't seem to find one though.
Well.. thanks for reading my post, and accept my appologies for my bad english. You can probably notice I'm not a native speaker.
Does someone have a solution for me? Maybe know of a good thread?
Thanks in advance!
Greatings, Eldoro

also formatted my internal sd through adb...doesnt help either

You need to search for a data/data file that you can flash in Odin that will fix your internal SD card. I had same problem. My Android soultions helped me. Try searching for that also

Tried that already... didn't work. That method only works if your sd card is totally dead. The phone then automaticly switches to the external sd
My isn't totally dead..

Install stock rom JVU in ODIN, then flash this kernel

How do I have to flash? With repartitioning checked or unchecked?
Do I have tot restart and let android try to install after flashing? Or must I flash your kernel directly after flashing the rom...

first of all apologize for asking a question and not answer your question, when you were CM10 and came back to a stock rom had to do some special way or just did you use odin? in my case I had installed CM 10 and accidentally format the internal sd through cwm now my cel just go to recovery and download mode.
excuse my English, English is not my native language, I use a translator

Thank you rxxxni, flashing the sdcard fix worked. My internal sd card had been stuck in read only mode and it took more than a week to find a fix.

This works for my SGS I test almost everything but the internal sd always returned all the data even before a wipe format re-partition noting work to delete the internal sd, wit this kernel the phone will create 2 partitions 1 fat and 2 ext4 wit the same size of the internal sd 1.89GB.
I will like to install a new version for 4.0 or 4.1 but dont know how to change this kernel to work wit another 2.3.6 like jw4 or jw9
if anyone know pleas let mi know

[Q]how to use memory card for data storage

You need app for that. Search threads little, I didn't use it - but heard it is possible.

It's called directory bind. There is an app for that but does require root.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2

any other way?

you can use this mod for swap that 4Gb partition with your mircrosd card so then you will have internal mem 2gb; usb mem(sdcard) xGb and external mem (extsd) 4gb http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36613948&postcount=1017 use the changed mem
for restoring the original partitions use the original mem
just flash them in recovery mod
P.S. if you wanna save your all apps/games move all to internal mem then copy the Android/data and Android/obb (if exist) to tha microsd card then you can flash the changed memory mod

Brocky2011 told you what to do. You must root phone anyway. No other ways that that two provided here. That app, or this swap places of internal and external memory.

For ROOTING
-JB you can use this ---> single way
-GB you can use this --> method 1 metod 2

Use GL to SD(free in play)

this is already rooted before

Try uninstalling, pasting data again and then installing the app

this is my first post.I flashed my (unrooted)phone with latest XXLQB(Serbia) update stock rom after that overall phone is working perfectly
but then i noticed that i cant copy any files into internal or even external sd card by chance sometimes it gets copied but almost all times it keeps giving me this error
0x800703EE the volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid
also if i tried to download apps from google play first it gave me 927 error but now it goes into just downloading bar while real download never starts

I have never heard anyone having a problem like the one you're having...
But you will have to Root in-order to Backup your Data and/or files... then flash CoCore Kernel with TWRP to boot to Recovery and Backup only your Data in your Micro SD card.... then perform a Factory Reset or go back to Gingerbread....
(You can try this too, but it won't be much help.. also this doesn't require any Root too)... Connect your phone with your PC and copy everything to your PC
About the Error 927 from Google Play.... I don't know about that too... but try Wiping Cache and Dalvik using TWRP...
and BTW. I think the error 0x800703EE the volume for a file has been externally altered so that the opened file is no longer valid" is a Windows related issue.. not Android related..

About that google play error code...you can try checking with google play support about the error code if it persist.
And are you by any chance using 3g? Because the default setting for Play is to block big downloads if you're using 3g. Check your play setting, and if that didn't help then cancel the download in the app page and then restart it. It will ask you to allow the download with 3g or something like that. Don't use the online google play (play.google.com) from browser for this. Use the app

Where did you put the zip? It has to be in externel. And don't put in any folder. Just throw it in the root of your externel sd card

Repartition external SD, told 100 times from me. Search xda, internet... For answer how to do it. It is not just format. You need to remove and add partition. This is if you do not see any file in recovry. If you do, than you are doing something wrong.

Using other external sd card for rooting won't create a problem. But u wud need this root zip file wen u reflash this JB or upcoming variants of JB.
For now its perfectly alrite.

Just as in previous post. And that happend because that second sd is partitioned as it should. That was the case for me too, old 2GB SD worked nice, and 8GB didn't work. After repartition of that 8GB it worked well too.

You can flash ur country's ROM using ODIN and for root u can use the same SD card and same root file for ur country's firmware. And backup the root file to your computer and copy it to sd card ONLY IF IT GETS DELETED.

is something wrong with my SGSA only that when i flash something this problem pops up? plz advice any solution thanx in advance.
P.S. i want to flash custom roms in future but i cant due to this problem :'(
