[Q] apps2sd - not working... ?

hi,
i am not sure what i am doing wrong here, I am using pinky's ROM and I have the default and used ROM manager to partition the SD card to a 512 MB ext3 and the remainder 14 GB as FAT32.
I have set the EXT4 module is enabled and App2SD is set to external.
But I still cant get the apps to install to SD, using the method above to check it. The Ext3 partition is being seen, but the symlinks are correct.
Any ideas?
Heres a dump from my CMD prompt
C:\android\tools>adb shell

help anyone???

The native apps2sd option has nothing to do with apps2sd+, set it to internal. To see if apps2sd+ is working proply use a file explorer to navigate to the /data/app directory and look at the availible space, if its the same as your ext partition. Its working

Difference between app2sd and standard app manager?

Hi Guys,
Im currently running oxygen RC7 on my Htc Desire. ok im a little confused as to how i have such little space. According to wikipedia the Desire has 512mb flash memory. But according to app2sd it has a total of 185.69MB and according to settings it has 148Mb. So which is it? Now im aware that the rom takes up some space now onto the second part of my question.
I also have partitioned my SD card to 512mb with rom manager, but this doesnt explain the random sizes both A2SD and system settings are saying. Also i dont understand what i achieved by partitioning my sd card i didnt see any difference in size on the storage settings am i just looking in the wrong place.
My understanding is that app2sd moves apps to the ext3 partition created by Rom manager and the stock application manager moves apps to the fat partition. My reasoning for this is that some apps can be moved to SD by the stock application manager and the same apps cant be moved by app 2 SD
Can anyone explain this to me?
Thanks

I don't know much about Apps2SD, A2SD or what ever you call it but I will give it a go anyway and hope that I help you out a little. I don't use it as I will explain why.
The 512MB size is the total size of the internal memory. That memory is split up into 3 main partitions. /system, /data and /cache. Other things like boot, recovery and so on goes somewhere else. The rom goes onto the /system partition, the apps go to /data partition and /cache is for temporary storage like when your downloading apps from the market.
Try not to do it with Rom Manager. It is a little buggy and doesn't work well. You can use something like gparted to format and partition your SD card.
As for A2SD. I understand that you install a script for it to work properly. By default, it will move apps to the ext partition on your SD card. Please note if your using widgets and the app is on the SD card, you won't be able to use the widgets.
Here is a A2SD script by DarkTremmor. Read up on it. Hope this helps.
I prob am wrong about this but this is my understanding of A2SD. Please update me guys if I am wrong or you have better info. I still don't understand A2SD properly. I will however try it out and see how it works.

If you use A2SD (the version with the ext) widgets will work. They only won't work when on the fat partition.

hey thanks for the reply. ok so this helps me understand it a bit better thanks googlejelly. But this still doesnt explain why a2sd has a different total size then the stock application manager?
Even if you say that by default App2sd moves it to ext partition and that is the reason for the different sizes it still doesnt match up as i created a partition of 512mb and got 185.69 which is a bit far off the mark.

Most proper way to know your free memory is Console. Connect phone, type adb shell and:
Code:
# mount

/dev/block/mtdblock5 /data yaffs2 rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime 0 0

/system - read only (s-off rules!) file system for your system files
/data and /cache rw partitions for application and data storage
next is SD-Card mount point
/mnt/secure - is hidden folders on SD-Card for storing data for native a2sd Android. You can see last line - it's Angry birds moved to SD mounted as independent partition. Don't move any apps to SD-card if you have custom a2sd+ script configured.
Code:
# df
Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize
/dev 203M 44K 203M 4096
/mnt/asec 203M 0K 203M 4096
/mnt/obb 203M 0K 203M 4096
/system 140M 126M 13M 4096
/data 272M 56M 215M 4096
/cache 25M 10M 14M 4096
/sd-ext 457M 189M 267M 1024
/mnt/sdcard 3G 2G 859M 4096
/mnt/secure/asec 3G 2G 859M 4096
Now sizes (i have custom partitions size, so your sizes will differ)
/data - where you install all apps.
/sd-ext - a2sd+ storage (on SD-Card)
And to check is a2sd word proper:
Code:
# ls -l data/

you see "->" is symlink to SD-card. So any app you installed in internal memory of your phone actually goes to SD. But, there is on folder - data, which not moved to card with a2sd. Cause some restrictions or smth like this.
in /data/data/ app store their libraries etc. Now check which soft use storage:
Code:
# cd data/data
# du -shd1
3.0M ./com.adobe.reader
80.0K ./com.mhuang.overclocking
54.5K ./kz.mek.DialerOne
4.0K ./jp.r246.twiccaplugins.twitpic
17.5K ./com.anddoes.fancywidget
9.0K ./org.swiftp
.....
2.5K ./com.rerware.android.MyBackupRoot
15.0K ./ccc71.bmw
45.6M .
So total folder use 45.6MB of internal storage. all other is free for use. There another folders in data, but it not so heavy.
Stock Desire, according to alpharev, has - Bravo Sense: /system:180M /cache:40M /data:217M.
Main goal of using custom a2sd+ is that you install all apps in internal memory as your phone thinks. And all widgets work well. With stock a2sd you can't move apps with widgets to sd-card or it stop working.

crap i tried the app2sd script and it messed up my phone, now i cant install any app from the market it just starts and stops straight away. im after doing a factory reset on my phone and even restored backups.
can anyone help?

Why not to take any of existent rom with working a2sd?

thanks for the relpy (both of them) after doing a wipe via android itself, everything is back to normal now. So is it that all i have to do to get app2sd to transfer my apps to my ext3 partition on my sd is run a script (.zip file) in clockworkrecovery?
the one i tried is what messed everything up, i dont know if it was because some of my apps were on my sd (via the standard application manager) or that the script wasnt designed for the desire/the rom im running.
i have partitioned my rom correctly to ext3 so im nearly there :-(

With a2sd all apps should be installed in internal memory.
Check what show ls -l /data/ in terminal. If there is symlink to SD - everything is Ok!

[Q] Changing size of Partitions?

Currently my partitions look like this:
df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
tmpfs 206.5M 0 206.5M 0% /dev
/dev/block/mtdblock4 40.0M 8.5M 31.5M 21% /cache
/dev/block/mtdblock3 250.0M 120.9M 129.1M 48% /system
/dev/block/mtdblock5 147.6M 70.7M 76.9M 48% /data
But when I next boot, /data/dalvik-cache will balloon to ~60MB so I'll be stuck with 15MB left of my data partition.
I was thinking, if I could take 100MB or so from my system partition and add it to my data partition, this would make everything much more awesome. I'm prepared to reformat my phone (currently using CM7-RC3) to do this, but have no idea how I'd go about it.
Also it'd be great if my /system partition mounted RW on boot (I've got Alpharev, etc)

[Q] Is it possible to resize the internal partitions on the Play?

Apologies if this has already been asked elsewhere, but I got no search results on it...
I was checking partition sizes using Root Explorer yesterday, and the following is what I was seeing:
Data: 380MB, 65.11MB free
System: 312.5MB, 83.02MB free
Cache: 225MB, 1.31MB used
This works out at around 1GB of internal storage, and on my phone, over 300MB wasted between system and cache partitions. Is the large cache partition there for downloading all that extra game data, because it seems needlessly large otherwise?
The big question though - is there any way to repartition the internal storage?

Yes there is but you would need some way to instruct s1 boot to use the new partition table, even with an unlocked bootloader we can't do this. Also in the 2.3.4 update /cache/ has been reduced to 100mb.

Thanks So if I flash any of the 2.3.4 ROMs, I'll have an extra 100MB on my data partition? I'd be happy enough with that...
As for instructing s1 boot to use the new partition table, do you mean there's no way to do this, full stop, or no way to do it YET? Because obviously the 2.3.4 ROMs can do it, so just wondering if it's something the devs may be able to figure out and do in future...

Thats the thing, it's just disapeared this other 100mb, they didnt add it to /data/ or /system/ just hid it on a seperate partiton
Afaik there is no way full stop, although we have unlocked bootloaders, we dont have s-off like HTC devices, were unable to modify bootloader Sony on the other hand add diffrent bootloader versions to there stock roms, so it's the latest bootloader that comes with the 2.3.4 roms that has repartitioned /cache/
If you want to free up some space, you may want to try link2sd on the market, it works simlar to apps2sd+ i have over 300 apps on my phone and still have 235mb free thanks to link2sd

maybe they added it into an ext recovery, so maybe we could use CWM with 2.3.4?

Do you have 2.3.4? You can use ADB to list the partitions, so you might be able to see where that 100MB has gone...

I suppose if it's hidden from Android, then ADB wouldn't see it anyway. And it's actually more than 100MB. More like 123.5MB. Would love to know where it's gone!

Who would like a 1GB System Partition???

THIS IS FOR DEVELOPMENT ONLY!!!! THIS IS ONLY A CONCEPt FORGETTING THE 1GB SYSTEM PARTITION.
30-Jan-13 update
Ok so using this method I now have a ported rom from the Samsung Galaxy S3 that has a 680+mb system booting on my G2. If any of you feel like helping me get it up and running PM me or you can download it from here http://sourceforge.net/projects/sgs3forg2/files/FJB4G2-orig-runtime.zip/download and see for yourself...
MAJOR EDIT: SO THE UPLOAD MUST HAVE BEEN CORRUPTED FOR THE EM1.zip. IT IS NON FUNCTIONAL. ALL CREDIT TO THE ONE I WILL PUT UP GOES TO FLINNY. I IN NO WAY DID ANYTHING TO CREATE THIS ROM JUST ALTERED THE MOUNTS TO GET THE 1GB SYSTEM PARTITION. THE FILE IS NAMED f10.zip. it is his 10.1 base.
Ok so I know its been a while but I have something I can not keep away from the community. Anyone want to get a 1GB System and 549MB Data partition??? Yes thats right we can swap the partitions. here is a link to some screen shots and another to, with the permission of nik3r, the modified Elitemod Rom. just go into recovery, format all partitions(sorry you will have to start over in order to swap the partitions, well for now that is), and flash the EM1.zip
http://www.mediafire.com/?ka8yq4hzs6upj
Ok so this all started after my wife got her new phone the samsung galaxy s3. in love with the phone and what it could do but unable to, due to financial constraints and TMobiles unwillingness to give me one for free like they did my wife, I set forth trying to find a way to port its OS to our G2. finally i have found a way, or at least now the space in which to put it. now will begin the porting phase. hence this thread, I bring you this solution to our space issue cause really is 1.3GB for G2 or 1GB for DZ partition for data really needed???
So here is what I did...
1. First I got android sdk all setup
2. Then I downloaded the android kitchen
3. Also downloaded the Elitemod Rom from nik3r's thread and set it up in the android kitchen
4. In the android kitchen I extracted the kernel and ramdisk from the boot.img
5. I editted all the init files in the BOOT-EXTRACTED/boot.img-ramdisk directory and changed the mount section of the init.rc to
# mount mtd partitions
# Mount /system rw first to give the filesystem a chance to save a checkpoint
mount yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /system
mount yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /system ro remount
mount yaffs2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /data nosuid nodev
mount yaffs2 [email protected] /cache nosuid nodev
and the init.vision.rc mounts i also swapped
on early-fs
mkdir /system
mkdir /data 0771 system system
mkdir /cache 0770 system cache
mkdir /devlog 0700 root root
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 /system wait ro barrier=1
setprop ro.crypto.tmpfs_options size=128m,mode=0771,uid=1000,gid=1000
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p25 /data wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1 noauto_da_alloc
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p27 /cache wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1
mount ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p28 /devlog wait noatime nosuid nodev barrier=1
6. now in order for it to boot right i had to get the files to go to the right place so i editted the updater-script and changed the mount for system to /dev/block/mmcblk0p26 (which as you know is the normal data partition) and the data mount to /dev/block/mmcblk0p25( normally system) now the files are going to places we want and the init files on boot remount the system on 0p26 and data on 0p25 (in reverse from normal) but it boots. so here we go lets get the life put back in this phone now we have the space.
Mad props to nik3r for his rom and permission to use it
UPDATE: For some reason the wifi got broken but to fix there is the MOD_Elitekernel zip found in the link at the top of this post that will fix that. I also put EdKeys wifi calling as well, have it running now on my phone so let me know if you find anything else.
UPDATE 2: I have put a hacked version of S Voice from the galaxy S3 in the link for the G2 *TO BE USED WITH THIS PROJECT ONLY*.
UPDATE 3: there must be some confusion with this. This is not a new rom with some timeframe to get it working. I have a fully opperational rom with no problems with apps or anything right now. This is about a mod that can be adapted to any rom or as brought up gapps which will be uploaded here tomorrow. My point is that any rom should be able to be altered this way.

So this means you're giving us Nature UX in the near future? Good luck :good: also does this open up multi booting possibilities (proper multi booting, not anything like Boot Manager)? 'Cause that'd be awesome, but would there need to be a special kernel?

WOW, Congrats man! Looking forward to this! As if the G2 will ever die! Pffft! And Kudos To nik3r for all his work towards this community!
BUT COME BACKKKKKK nik3r, we miss you!!

working on one of those... not sure what it would take for multiboot... could look into it once my main task is done -> SGS3 to G2

So, this would allow me to install more apps and less moving apps to sd card? Noob question, but I really do not know the answer.

Less apps, lager rom, kinda like custom mtd partions for older devices. Probably would need to have an ext partition to hold apps if you need a lot... gotta say I've been waiting for something like this!

So all roms need to be modefied in order to get this to work? I can go back to my previous rom without problems cause partitions are only mounted in different order by this rom? Just to be shure...
And multitasking wil benefit a lot of this?

Yes, the updater script just writes system to the data partition and since the init files are in the boot.img.they mount the "data" partition as /system and "system" partition as /data. Minor alterations to any rom would take advantage of this work around. And yes you can swap back and forth between a bacckup and this or any other altered rom but just remember in recovery(for now) formating system clears data and factory reset (clearing data) deletes the rom.

Oke i wiped all partitions with 4ext, installed rom, rebooted, but now it hangs on bootlogo?

It does take a min to boot... remember there's no cache. What does logcat say????

I really mean the htc bootlogo. I can boot into recovery and when i take a look at the partition table, i see systeem is still 549 and there is a 500mb swap partition.. have no knowledge of logcat but i can try and see later tonight when I'm home.
Edit: data partition is now 549

as i stated in the OP... yes i did change the mounting in the init.rc and init.vision.rc in the ramdisk. once the updater script sends the info tho the partitions i needed to edit those to make it boot with it making /dev/block/mmcblk0p26(originally data) the system mount. same for data mount is now the 0p25 partition

Oke forget this post, I had the wrong partition info, and forgot about the 500mb swap on my sd because i don't use it, sorry
This is the partition table after installing this rom:
------------------ Info -------------------
mount point | fs | size | free
system ext4 549.2MiB 539.3MiB
data ext4 1.0GiB 792.8MiB
cache ext4 295.3MiB 290.5MiB
sdcard fat32 28.7GiB 12.8GiB
sd-ext ext4 129MiB 108.9MiB
swap swap 513MiB -
Current Rom: unknown
There are some errors in the recover.log of 4ext touch recovery, which i included. Maybe someone can help me out

you have to remember that recoveries still look to the 0p25 as system but i have a way to show you if it is installing right.
reboot into recovery
plug phone into usb and usb into computer - make sure adb works... type in a terminal or command prompt "adb shell" and hit enter
you should be in an android shell... you should see this ~ #
then type df and hit enter - this will show the partitions and how they are mounted
select to install the rom and as soon as it starts press the up arrow and hit enter (if the up arrow does not bring up the df command just type it)
do this repeatedly and you will watch as the rom is installed, the space on and which partition is what.
let me know
ok so an update I have gotten Flinny's latest 10.1 to work also but I will not put it out until/ if I get his permission to do so

it also seems like only some files get written to data partition around 200mb, nothing to system...

you have dual mounts!!!! system and data are both mounted to both partitions. go into mounts windows in recovery and unmount both system and data partitions... then try again.

so is it working for you now???
UPDATED OP

Sorry , still on htc bootlogo
Only files seems to be written to data
Is there a way to view if/what data is written to the different partitions or boot ? Or do i need to install aditional gapps?
