OK, I'm new to rooting and installing custom roms so bare with me here.
1. I've just installed CM6 on N1 and restore my backed up apps to SD card. Now if i install some other roms and restore these apps again. Will they like overlaps and take more space? Cuz we didn't format or touch sd card during installing new rom, only wipe stuffs from phone memory.
2. When i move apps to sd, these app still take some space in phone memory. Is there anyway to move everything completely. I take it doing this might crash these apps right? thankss
I just want to say that installing custom rom on android is a pain in the *&(*(&. There's various method, old and new scattered all over the internet.

Installing custom ROMs on Nexus is as easy as it gets.
Dont take this the wrong way but I've read the faq before i posted. Nothing in there.
No FAQ. In the Wiki there are guides for EVERYTHING, including approximate steps to install custom ROM.

If you want to format your SD card, go for it...
As for moving apps to SD not moving all data, there's two types of this.
Apps2SD, or what Froyo employs, moves the apk and mounts it to make it available to the system. Makes it slower to boot, mount the SD card, and only some apps support it and it you force it (or devs make bad decisions in their manifest) it can break widgets or apps that need to run 24/7.
Apps2Ext, or what most custom ROMs make available (Darktremor) moves the apks entirely to an ext partition on the SD card and this works with all apps, widgets, etc.
In both cases, the app DATA is still on /data, as well as dalvik cache. So for me, 120 apps on my Nexus One is about the limit as I run out of space in data primarily from dalvik cache.
There are also ways to move dalvik cache to SD but there are performance hits.
Hello all,
I have upgraded my ace to Gingerbird 2.3.6
I have rooted it successfully.
Now my big question is how to move/install apps to my SD rather then my phone memory..
I know this question is very frequent over here.. but am very noob here.. am not sure of which ROM am using..
So please let me know some ways to move it ? anyting can be done with the emulator?
App2sd app in market
from XDA app
Press THANKS if I helped
Just follow this tutorial my friend.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1476121
whether apps2sd and link2sd, which one is da best?? i`m in stock rom and using cf-root b84.. what is the difference between them?
there is 2 thinks of moving app to sd. moving app to fat32 sd format which is simpler, and move app to ext sd format (as internal memory extention).
for moving app to fat32 sd card format is easy. use app2sd or link2sd. But some widget will not work. and not all app can be moved, only app that support app2sd.
for moving app to ext sd card format, you will need to make ext partition on the sd card. please google or search in the forum, how to make ext partition, many ways....
then after ext partition exist, you can use a2sd darktremor script + a2sdGUI, or S2E available in market.
note: S2E work simpler but only for CM rom.

AFAIK, S2E works only with CM based ROM. This guy is on stock.
Yes, I am still in stock ROM.. confused of which custom ROM to use.. I am waiting for a stable release of CyanogenMod..
Very new to flashing of ROMs
App2Sd moves the apps only which supports them.. not all..
I am gonna follow saruboy's tuturial for moving..
And I have another question for you people..
I have installed CWM, but now what does
- Wipe data/factory reset
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe dalvik cache
mean ? how we do it? sorry for the noob question.. but am very new
I would be very thankful to get a reply on this

I hope you know that your volume buttons are for moving up/down in CWM Recovery mode, Power Button to go back in previous menu and HOME button to apply the selection.
So,
Moving --> Volume Button
Select --> HOME
Go in previous menu --> Power button.
Now, Factory Reset means, it resets the current Installed ROM to its factory defaults. Meaning, It will erase all apps and your phone will be restored at the state like when you have bought the phone (for stock ROM) or you have just freshly installed a new custom ROM.
Wipe Cache Partition, clears the cache memory of ROM.
Now, dalvik files are the one which are made on application first run. For the default apps which comes with ROM by default, those app's dalvik cache will be generated on the First Boot.. This is the reason, why first boot after every custom ROM installation is slow. This dalvik-cache are generally have .dex or .deodex extension. Each app have it's own separated dalvik file. Now, by wiping this, means removing dalvik cache from OLD ROM before flashing a new one.
Anything else?
A big thanks to you Rushyang
Have hit the thanks for you
super job
thanks a ton a lot in handy

Download LINK2SD from market,partition your SD card for EXT2 partition(There's a really old tutorial by ingbrzy in Ace section) .And you are done.Of course there are many ways to move apps to SD but i feel this one is the most convenient, however its your choice.

So, I want to stay on stock ROM, I will root my phone and put actual CWM5 recovery.
What should I do to put apps2sd and increase phone memory? (I can make ext2 partition on cwm recovery SD partitioning)
How can I move dalvik cache on new ext2 partition on my SD card?
Could someone explain to me exactly what to do?
I want to stay on stock ROM but also to have benefits of many apps on my phone.
Thanks!

Use link2sd if you're on stock rooted rom.
-backup your sd to your pc, cuz partitioning will format your sd card, wiping everything on it.
-partition. Using cwm from your phone or minitool partition wizard on your pc.
-install link2sd, create mount script to fat32, or ext2 (whatever works). Then reboot (keep trying other formats if one doesn't work)
-start linking apps. This will move them to sdext partition.
Good luck.
Im interested to know exactly what to do on the phone after making a fat32 partition. What steps and/or procedure? Im not an expert and I dont want to brick a phone or someting like that. But really need more space for apps!
Thanks!

I recommend you an ext partition and not Fat32 partition on your SD card ... I've a SD card of 16gb class 2, I partitioned my SD card with CWM Recovery and assigned to a partition of 2Gb app with swap 64Mb, for background app ... Now I have in my SGA 115 apps

hello, i am new to xda.. so please forgive me if i stated a wrong question or in the wrong section or even repeat the question as i couldnt get a fully satisfying solution searching the forum. i cant post directly in the developer section as i dont yet have access to it...so i posted in the QnA section.
so i have xperia x8 with stock kernel and i have flashed a custom rom PrimeHD v6.0 after reading thoroughly all the requirements and procedures.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1480404
and then i had installed a tweak for cm7 roms: jimdemdroid
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1379754
now the thing is i want to upgrade the present custom rom ie v6.0 to v7.0
but i am kind of unsure how to do it correctly.. i mean i know how to do it through the recovery.. but my questions are:
1. do i have to again factory reset/full wipe the phone again??..
2. do i have to clear all caches.. like the dalvik cache etc.. [i read it somewhere you have to delete all the caches]
3. will the applications INSTALLED on my external storage be affected if at all i require a full wipe?
4. since i have flashed jimdemdroid tweak, do i have to do full wipe in this case?.. ie if otherwise the wipe isnt required or so..
5. a detailed step by step instruction would be very appreciated!!
some off the topic questions..[just didnt want to open a new thread for these]
1. do i actually need the jimdemdroid tweak [even the lite version] on primehd mod.. as i dont see much difference except the bravia engine.. no to mention the dsp manager doesnt work now due to xloud drivers..
2. i had selected the install location in the cyanogenmod application settings to external. ie the apps shud now go to the sdcard.. but my internal storage now also gets filled.. and also in the normal application settings->manage applications-> i still find a 'move to sd card' button active.. if i already have installed the apps in the external storage [which also gets filled obviously] then that option shudnt be there.. or faded w/e..
i was on 6.0 (stock kernel) and i upgraded to 7.0 today
everything is working perfectly for me, even the wifi wich doesn't work on custom kernels work perfect.
if you ask me, i would remove jimdemdroid, because there is no big difference with or without it
i didn't wiped anything, and i used titanium backup for backuping everything (messages, contacts, bookmarks, calendars, apps) just in case
install and reboot only..
no need full wipe
The new update it will wipe your current system,with any changes made by you..e.x this tweak,but not your data
So
if you want it you must install it again(the tweak package..)
we clear the dalvik when we have incompatibles with apps
And also if we have force close with a app we delete in data/data /the file of this and reinstall it

Answer to your questions :
1. A full wipe is always recommended to avoid any type of possible bugs/errors.
2. Once you do a full wipe , clearing dalvik cache etc is NOT required
3. android.secure (applications on SD card) is formatted
4. Full wipe after flashing the tweak is not required. However if you face some problems/errors , do a full wipe
5. Just gave you the answers
Off topic answers :
1. PrimeHD is already stable enough. As such the tweak is not required.
2. When an application is moved to SD card , only some part is shifted to the SD card. The whole application is NOT transferred to the SD card. Did you try to click on the "Move to SD card" option. Probably your app wasn't even installed to the SD card in the first place.
thank you all for your replies..
ok so i get it like this
1. download primehdv7.0 files and move it to sdcard
2. reboot into cwm recovery
3. do a full wipe [optional- just to eliminate bugs by mere chance- though it will remove my messages contacts on internal storage and apps on external storage]
4. install zip from sdcard
5. reboot and done!
please confirm the above thing.. thank you.. and yes one more thing... if i dont do a full wipe.. do i require to remove caches and stats .. if yes.. then please mention all of them..
and @mayank77 for the offtopic answer.. i get it about the partial move of apps to sd... but i also read about the permanent solution to move complete app to sd.. ie via sdk manager following steps to setInstallLocation to 2 (external) via cmd using adb
but recently i tried this method on my friends mobile which is android 2.2 galaxy fit and it doesnt seems to work.. i rechecked the install location by pm getinstalllocation and it says there external.. but then too the internal storage was getting filled... now i suspected this method also as a partial moving to sd.. but no.. the whole app was installed in the phone memory.. any suggestions to that??
as I exp if you use other rom i always wipe my system ,,,and I use flash player after wards,, note if you dont know how to use flash tool pls do soo before performing wiping system on your cwm
@rezzen25 : flash player or flash tool??..
and i need a confirmation if the flashtool has to be used for sure.. as from the previous replies.. i dont think that we are to use flashtool..
personal satisfaction for doing safe measures is a different thing though.. and this isnt a new rom i am adding.. its an upgrade to the same rom..

First of all welcome to xda yeah for the clean installation of romm what u need to do is
1 WIPEdata/factory reset
2 wipe cache partion
3 in advance option wipe dalvik cache and wipe battery stats
this are the steps for clean installation
but i do not insists on upgrading the rom always do a clean installation
and for moving app2sd there is brilliant app called link2sd on the google play store it moves the complete app and dalvik cache too but for that u need to partion your sd card to ext3 or ext4 based on the app i am using ext4 partion
and partion can be done via two methods in built recovery or by the help of pc app windows miniwizard partion tool search for partion tutuorial on xda
good luck and if ur trying to unlock ur bootloader if aware of reading the stickies in the general section

flashtool is used in the case of soft bricking or flashing the kernels not for flashing roms
instead do a clean install rather then upgrade my openion though
@ankitxperia : thanks a lot ... i exactly needed this reply.. i think i will do a clean install whatsoever
about link2sd.. yeah i will look for partitioning guide and give that a try... i read it somewhere that link2sd does all the job... but i was quite reluctant to try partitioning as i got to read and stuff.. but now... i will definitely read and do the partition..
and yes.. please tell if you have tried the sdk manager thing to install your apps to sd card directly.. as i said it didnt seem to work.. if you have tried it ie setinstalllocation to external.. please confirm that it works .. thank you..

you must create ext3 or ext4 primary partition on your sdcard. to create partition, install mini tool partition wizard to your pc. then you can use link2sd to link dalvik caches to your sdcard. or, if you use cm7 as your rom, you can install s2e. to remove system apps, use link2sd

Are you linking the apk, dex and lib files or just installing (moving) apps to sd? You should create link to free up your internal space.
Take it from my experience. I used stocklite for almost 5 months with link2sd. Linked all apps except for those with widgets or that i needed at boot left on internal. 80 apps, 50 mb free on internal.
If you change to cyanogenmod you won't have more internal space, same space, different rom. When you do the required wipes with cwm (which you should to install cyano roms) it will format and erase the partition. You'll still have your partitioned sd card, but all info in that partition will be gone.

Are you linking the apk, dex and lib files or just installing (moving) apps to sd? You should create link to free up your internal space.
Take it from my experience. I used stocklite for almost 5 months with link2sd. Linked all apps except for those with widgets or that i needed at boot left on internal. 80 apps, 50 mb free on internal.

I installed Cyno Mod 7 ROM and it works just fine and i have partitioned again and everything is fine now..but i backuped my stocklite and i dont have the original ROM which i used even before rooting how to get that 'the real one which i had when i bought the phone?' if i have that one ..i can change it to anytime when i want..
Carrier specific roms are harder to find than free roms. Go to sammobile and check if they have the rom that came with your phone.
The stock roms are all installed through your computer with odin and your phone in download mode.

Did the ROM apocalypse had any updates because i still do have some bugs..
I am running Xtreme G version 2 ROM.
i have tried s2e, link2sd, darkremor everything. the problem is:
1)in link2sd it worked at first but internal memory kept on increasing but i was still able to install.( i have partition of 4096) however after downloading many apps(over 100) the rom kept on rebooting and i had to wipe data ,cache, dalvik cache. i had experienced same problem on stock rom.
2)s2e and darktremor i cant understand what to do in darktremor app2sdgui or terminal emulator i dont know what to do.
all i want is to move apps to sd partition i dont care how i just want free internal memory.
on any of the above methods if u can help me or even post a link ill be grateful.

F*ck yeah... you crazy... over 100 apps ? !
Try this. Darktremor automatically put apps to sd-card.
but this rom is running on 2.3.7(although with ics/jb interface) the guide u gave me is for cm9 or 10.
ps some of those apps were very small like chainfire etc

Altrough they small, those apps are saving configuration which big for data.
Nahhh... sorry, search around here.
i've tried them all and now sticking to:
GingerMod
cause it's totally auto and lets you choose what/where to keep
give it a try
