Hi everyone,
first sorry about my bad english
I just bought a n1 brand new and upgraded to 2.3.4 (dont need cooked roms) my question is about the sd card, i know i can move certain apps to the sd card, but the phone its running out of space to install apps, im thinking about to partition the sd card to ext3/fat32 (its 8gb btw)
If i do this, i would be able to move/install apps on the sd card?
I will only use the stock tool to move apps and going to partition with another phone which has clockworkmod installed, or if you know any better app for android or windows please tell me,
Thanks for your time and patience
Ps. Sorry for my bad english again

You need to run a rom that support a2sd (s2e or dark tremor's a2sd script).

Using Froyo's app2sd method (which is what you would be using on a stock ROM), it won't ever utilize the sd-ext partition. You need to have a ROM that supports sd-ext and then enable it in that ROM (if app2sdext is built-in) or add it into the ROM with something like DarkTremor's a2sd or S2E.
using the system built-in app2sd function doesn't require your re-formatting the sdcard at all. it's just in some .android_secure folder and mounted onto the system in some way.

The built in app2sd only move the app itself to the FAT32 portion of the sd card.
All data associate with the app still reside internally.
With S2E or DT's script it trick the phone into thinking the EXT section is part of the internal storage, hence all app with widgets and password work like normal.
Another plus is being able to move dalvik cache to sd-ext which free upa a huge amount of space.

I highly recommend using CMW for making the partition. I've had some problems making them through my PC. With CMW you just set the amount of size you want it and wait till its done.
Then install S2E.
yea its better to make it by cwm and its very easy....
but make sure you have the backup of you sdcard before partitioning...
Hey ! I just googled about partitioning sd card and found that CWM may brick your phone.. is it true ?

If your phone is rooted, follow these steps -
1) Download root explorer or file manager app from market.
2) Open the app
3) Go to system/app
4) Delete the following files
swype.apk
thinkdroid.apk or thinkfree.apk if you dont use thinkfree office(something like that, i dont remember the exact name)
youtube.apk
fmradio.apk and fmradio.odex
voicesearch.apk
voicerecorder.apk and voicerecorder.odex
etc..
Delete these files only if you dont use all these apps. Don't blame me later on.

Apps disappearing from EXT4 partition
Hi everyone. Since I see that at least part of this thread seems to be talking about Link2SD, I wondered whether anyone might be able to offer some insight into the problem I am experiencing.
Before that however, let me explain that I started off with an 8GB micro SD card with a 500MB EXT4 partition. I had been fast running out of space in the internal phone memory, and my SD drive itself was also filling up fast. When I installed Link2SD I managed to regain a considerable amount of free space on the internal memory.
The problem is though that once I had linked the majority of my apps to the EXT4 partition and backed up the device in that condition with CWM, once I rebooted the system all the apps that were linked had disappeared. However there are still some 244MB of files on the EXT4 partition that Link2SD says are in use, and I cannot delete them.
I then purchased a 16GB micro SD card from Samsung, and tried to restore the CWM backup to that card....my apps were missing apart from the few that remained on the FAT32 partition and in the phone memory....I should mention that this also happened before I installed the CM7.1 ROM.
Now things have really become problematic. I decided to remove quite a few apps, then download the latest version of Link2SD from the apps Market. But although there is now plenty of space on all partitions I keep getting the 'insufficient storage available' message, and I cannot install anything. I also did a CWM restore on the original 8GB SD card with the same result. This is why I cannot lay the blame fully on Link2SD, as there has to be a glitch somewhere in my installation.
FreeSpace [Root] shows the following on the 8GB based system:
Cache free space 20.7MB
Data free 16.6MB
Ext free 265.0MB
SD-card free 959.1MB
System free 48.2MB
So what gives? I really don't understand what's going on. I am running the latest CM7.1-RC1 Cooper-Grif ROM build number GWK74, with Kernel version 2.6.35.7-CL-562111 [email protected]#1 with all updates necessary. This is costing me more time than I can afford to lose on this, and I really need to find a solution once and for all, preferable without having to reinstall everything again from scratch, which is what I intend doing once the official Cyanogen Mod becomes available finally.
Thanks in advance, and apologies for the long post.

Make partition in cwm yet easy but...it will format your sd...on minitool is better if u have lots of thing on your sd...
regards,
•ƒγяύs ργяσ™•
I got some problems doing this. This is what I did:
I had many apps installed and moved to SD (8gb class 4), so I made a backup of the SD content.
I formatted it, and created 2 partitions (6.8gb and 515mb) using Minitool Partition Wizard. Both are primary and FAT32 (if I create the 2nd partition as EXT2 the phone says SD is damaged).
Moved my backup content again to the 6.8gb partition and rebooted the phone.
Looks like everything is right but Link2SD says "second partition not found".
What IM doing wrong?
Would Link2SD detect that 2nd partition if I flash my phone and I start installing apps now that my SD has 2 partitions?
IMHO from what I've experience, Link2sd does not accept fat partitions. I had the same problem.
Are you looking for the correct type of partition?
Start Link2sd>menu>More>recreate mount scripts and choose FAT32/FAT16

HOW CAN I MOVE INSTALLED APPS TO MY EXTERNAL SD??
I tried all "App2SD" in google play, but looks like Optimus 2x mount its SD in a different way, so what these apps does is move apps to/from internal memory (it is not the same as internal sd??? why 2?) and internal sd.
So i boght a 32GB sd for just videos and mp3???
I googled and found a link talking about "Mod Install Location".
Well, this "Mod Install" doesn't work too. I can't install news apps in external sd nor can i move installed apps.
No one bottered with this situation too???? Is impossible to move installed files in Optimus 2x do the external SD?

Another question about this SD problem: looks like that after flash roms and firwares the internal sd will be totally wiped. Well, so Titanium Backup is useless for Optimus 2x, as it doens't let choose directory for backups. Solution?

+1 on CM7. That ROM will render your internal SD useless as EVERYTHING can be thrown to the external SD.
I have Titanium Backup Pro and there's an option to choose the backup location in preferences. I'm pretty sure it's also present in the free version.
(TB is very useful for me. Enough for me to purchase it.)
If you are using app2sd from market to move your application to sdcard, meaning you can do it manually from your application manager, each and every app you click will have a button to move to sd. App2sd market app just simplifies this process. Please note that this method only moves some app files to the sdcard not all of it, it will still leave app dalvik and app user data on the internal memory.
The real app2sd/app2sd+/data2sd that creates a link from your internal phone data partition and relocate your data folder to external sd are script based, and you have to make a ext3/4 partition on your external sdcard in addition to your fat32 partition. This is what you need If you want to totally move all data to external sdcard.
I have not seen ppl making tutorials using this script in o2x forum, because the 1.5gb app space is good for most people, unless if you have alot of games in your phone. For what I know the app2sd+ script is universal for all phones, you may just need to make some modifications to the script to make it work on every specific phone type/model.
About the flashing firmware wiping internal sd, I have not encountered such issue. For what reason do you flash a firmware? I havent tried flashing rom the official way since you can just use cwm to flash rom, but I flash baseband alot of times, no internal sd wipes, but it does wipe data partition.
TB doesn't let you change the backup folder like that. You have to copy the "TitaniumBackup" folder with a few backup files to where ever you want and then the app scans for folders with backups.

After flashing a ROM or firware i just open TB and it will recognize the old backups? I just install TB and then overwrite with the old folder?

If you use app2sd+ script method, everything will function normally. A class 6 or 10 sdcard can perform as fast as your internal phone storage. You may wear your sdcard faster though since it is being regularly used and accessed.
The only problem is to fine the script itself that is specifically customised for o2x, I myself do not know how to do it, although I used it before for my HTC Desire phone, but that was long time ago and the script was integrated in custom roms since htc desire only has 150mb app space.

Yes, all threads will say that, its just cautionary purposes. I just recently reflashed my baseband to v20c a a month ago using smartflash, it did wipe my rom data, but not my internal sd. But just incase, make a backup of everything, it doesn't hurt to do that.

The ext partition will always be mounted for android system, so you cannot access via pc. You need a fat32+ext3/4 partitions combo.
First you need to know how much storage do you need for apps, please note that I think the internal 1.5gb app storage will be left unused if you decide to link your data (which will fool android system thinking it is phone memory) folder to your external sd.
We have talk too much on this topic but I myself is unsure whether you can find the script to run on o2x. Maybe its time for you to take some time on how to actually find and modify one so it works for o2x. I cannot help you on that at all. Keep us posted if you have any progress.

But can i alternatively make a backup of big games in the sd so i don't need to download 700 MB every time i want to install it again? As already said Titanium Backup will not do that. I could cut and paste only the backup of the game i want to sd, but Titanium show the name of backups in a way wich is dificult to read among many files. Plus i am not sure TB will backup all data of the game.
hello , my question is can i make 2. partition for link2sd?
i tryed this with 3-4gb and ext4 but when i linking apps all works fine but when i restart the phone all apps are away,
i fount it with root explorer but not more on phone. must i maby make format in fat32 is this the difference???
or give a another change to make more space i have 32gb sd cart , for nothing??? baldurs gate, assasins pirates, air supremazy or gta san andreas are great games thats i need some more space
thanks for any solution thats working and help my regarts to all (sry my bad english)
Link2sd do not working from Androids 4.1 to up.
Do not ask Why or If will ever be a patch like that, I will be glad to expand the storage on my phone too but not in this way.
The only solution at the moment is use Folder Mount App.

Yes, when you "mount" a folder you have a double data, the moved files are the real one, the other folder (where the data was before) are the ghost once (fake), folder mount do that because the system have to read to that file.
In the moment when you unpick the folder, from green to white, the ghost files disappears. Yes, it's a bit confusional but when you learn it will be easy to use.
Remember, when a folder are mounted in Folder Mount (green pick) if you delete the ghost files you will delete also the reals one, be careful.
Apps Analyzer check for Apps to move data from internal to external, just choose the destination (exc..make a folder Games) and yes, overwrite when asked, it will move the files, then they are mounted when is green.
If you have an app and Apps Analyzer do not recognize that app just do it manually, go to List of pairs, click Plus (+), browse to the folder which you want move to SD (obb or data), choose destination and name of the application, done.
Keep testing. you will understand and check always the Internal Storage, if you see it will never go up even if you have double data as the one in internal storage is the fake one.
Click thanx for me. XP
I'm using Link2sd with pac rom (cm based 4.4) without problems. Since the latest update it can even move data to the second partition, so it basically moves everything now. Perhaps you're on stock rom that does not support init.d scripts?

That is a good new but Pac Man rooms seems not stable yet and with few bugs.
Do you can mount the whole SD card as internal storage? or just the partition EXT4?

With the current Pac rom nightly I only have some camera problems, the rest seems really stable already.
Link2sd needs a second partition (which can be ext4, but also ext2/3 or even fat), so you can't use the whole sdcard.

Sorry I misunderstood. With the newest version it really moves everything connected to the app to the second partition and frees up the space in the system storage.

It's a common issue if this script, I had this many times before and this make huge problems as you "maybe" can fix it by wiping Dalvik Cache but if you do that all your saved apps data cache can be losted. So I will be glad if we will be able to mount a whole SD card instead of internal memory so we will get rid of this errors.

You should mount /system from CWM before you install CronMod. CronMod mounts the ext partition of your SD Card as the new /data moving all the original /data files in there. Now certain applications like Google Play, Google Setting, etc needs to be in the internal memory to work properly. Otherwise they will give forced closes. With CronMod, you will not be able to move any apps to internal memory as your new internal memory is the ext partition of your SD Card. While using CronMod make sure to install only the necessary apps as installing more and more apps will make your phone more laggier. Also the maximum size of the ext partition should be 1 GB. Hope I Helped

hello,I'm quite new here,but I've tried partitioning SD fro my galaxy Ace in the past,and it did not work kind of well.My question is,what should I really mount when I'm flashin int2ext+?I've tried googling,but all the forums have been giving me different answers,so could anyone please help me figure out the "REAL" things to mount?because I'm quite confused as what to mount.Furthermore,after I flashed int2ext+,my phone became quite laggy,and my apps sometimes are not responding..So,any help/insight on that is greatly appreciated!

Hi sorry for the late reply.I'm using Touchwiz Revolutionized 5.0-V4.0 [FINAL],and it seems to work fine,with cronmod's int2ext+,but the occassional lag still happens,sometimes unbearable..maybe I'll try another ROM later

Since the original /data partition is moved into the ext partition of the SD Card and the SD Card R/W speed is less than internal memory R/W speed, yes, it will lag. You can control this to a certain extent by using Class 8 or above SD Card and only installing the necessary apps. Don't forget more apps you install to ext partition, more laggier your phone becomes

There is a way to avoid lags (but with Class 8 or above) and that is RAM swap...on Play store there are great apps for this. Just type "Ram swap".

The main problem while using swap is that it degrades your SD Card's life. So use it at your own risk. Hope I Helped
