a2sd/data2sd priority method - Desire General

I understand that NAND is more rapid than sd card and differences between a2sd method, like the picture report in Amarullz thread.
I wonder if exist a method to give priority to some apps rather than others in internal storage.
I mean: for example, suppose that I have 50 apps but I frequently use 10, might be more performant put 3rd part App data and APK (and dalvik if is possible to separate it) of theese 10 apps in NAND and other datas of the other ones in SD card?
Maybe this requires also a GUI to choose apps, I can't imagine what it takes this. Sorry, maybe this idea is absurd, I don't know about programming, it's just.. an idea.

Does link2sd do that? Not sure..

Think so..
Im not sure what Amarulz is stating system apk's are in those pictures, but to me they are always on NAND, so those pictures are probably specific to one of those sense roms for cm7 that have to export system app to ext to fit....

Thanks, I didn't know about this. I will try it and post my impression.

I think on the GNex the whole SD card can be used for installing apps. Google did this on purpose to cope with the "Not enough free space to install" issues one had on other handsets.
Are you on Stock ROM?
Stock Rom, I thought that was the case as well, I think I may have found the problem might be to do with restricting background data? will test and see.
Go to Settings -> Apps -> Market -> Clear Data. Try again. It's a bug likely.
There was an "out of memory" issue on Honeycomb tablets which required a device wipe to correct. I hope you get this resolved. I'd hate for this bug to be in ICS.

you have to tell your phone to move the files to the ext partition
i see you have a rom installed, if you have a superuser app installed (if you dont, download one from play store, i recommend super su) download the link2sd app, choose the apps you want to move (all the ones you wont mind if they go a little slower...) and select create link, that should fix it.
You use Link2Sd or A2SDGUİ .
my guess is that a2sd isn't installed correctly in your case or maybe your ext partition isn't big enough
if you are using cm9 or 10 or aokp michie(hope i spelled that right) made a a2sd cwm flashable zip and some other:swap, softkeys
those will work 100%

Now it's gone?

Ok so I am a firm believer on "search, learn and search until you understand"! I've been searching and haven't found much. This is the deal. I am on my 3rd replacement/refurb of this phone. We all hear that "every device is different" and I always agreed. Basically when I connect to PC in usb mode for file transfer usually I will have both internal and external sd slots available. With this refurb I can only see internal sd when phone is running regular and from recovery (agat 1.4.2) only external is viewable? How can I get both viewable at the same time again? I always run TW, tried pretty much all the GB27 ROMs and a couple different kernel options, tried a fresh 16GB and my older 32GB sd cards. I can't figure it out? It used to work no problem, not it's gone?Is this happening to others? Any input would be much appreciated! Thanks
So nobody else is are has had this problem? I'm usually pretty good at finding solutions and answers to problems, but this still has me beat!
I've had the problem before but not consistently and a reboot always fixes it.

System Data

Hello,
Never had any issues with my G3 in the year ive had it until now!
Basically I've checked my storage as my 16gb internal seemed to be incredibly low (especially since I store everything on my SD), I then realised I had a huge 8gb +/- taken up under Misc - system data. Unfortunately I can't figure out how to reduce this size.
On Samsung phones you can enter the hidden menu and wipe dumpstates and logcats but cant find the option on my d855 hidden menu.
I've flashed a bunch of ROMs and done resets etc but the problem persists. Any help would be great.
Using apps like System Cleaner etc etc DO NOT do anything as the problem lies in system data.
Thanks
Curtis

UPDATE
I've managed to improve my situation by doing the following;
Deleted the 'Facebook.orca' folder from my internal sd (That was a massive 4gb- but for some reason didn't come up under app data etc)
Installed FolderMount and linked my DCIM/Picture folders to my SD to give me an extra 1.5gb of internal space.

OS Occupied space too high. Please help! :'(

As you can see my OS Occupied size is very very big (8.13gb) . It's not a ROM related problem as i've tried many ROMs and but the size remains same.
What i believe is the reason is my fked up partitions. (ext4 + fat = both combined = 8gigs).
Any way to fix this? Any way to restore my old P2 like literally everything including partitions and there size etc.?
Where could i locate these 8gigs of files? :silly:

That is the standard partition for the OS, no changes possible or needed.

OMG i didn't knew that i always thought it was 4gigs or something, but why this much? like is it really required? 8gigs is too big imo.

32GB are real ~29,8GB which you can use. On your picture you have ~24GB free space. So 29,8GB - (~) 24GB = 5,8GB
Can you follow..?
Thats normal on android devices except you want to complain about ±500mb or something like that.
