Hi,
I formatted my external SDCard with 2 partitions, so I could use it with Link2SD. Since I am on a Mac I only could format the first one, which is FAT32. Now I need to format the 2nd with ext4 but I can only do this from inside the phone. Which is no problem, except I do not understand where I can find the device, I need to format. So, to sum it up: I have already a 'linux' type partition on the SDCard, unformatted, however. And I have a FAT32 partition on it, which gets mounted by Android already. What do I need to issue to the mke2fs command as input?
This is what I get, when issuing 'mount'.
Code:

In the recovery under mounts or advanced
Sent from my One V using Tapatalk 2
Thank you, I tried that first. But that does not help, since I have cwm5 installed, and that only formats up to 4GB. I need to know where I can find it in the /dev directory, so I can issue the path to mke2fs from 'adb shell'.

you sure??? i've formated my 8GB one with CWM5 before.....try TWRP or CWM6
Could be, that it offers 8 GB as well. I don't remember. But this is a 32GB card I have in use. What I'd need is two primary partitions, one around 6-8GB/ext4, the other one takes the rest as FAT32.
Can I install a different recovery mod, without resetting/erasing the phone? Is it as simple?
Ok, I updated CWM to v6 and re-checked. The max size is still 4096. Also I noted this:
After I left "advanced/partition" and turned on the log this shows up each time I select "show log"
Code:
When opening the log I get I: Can't format unknown volume: /external_sd
I:Can't partition unsafe device: /dev/block/mmcblkp1
and the "advanced/partitions" menu item is gone. "parted" in normal boot said, that I have overlapping partitions on the sdcard, which I doubt, since I did the partitioning with a special partitioning utility. Anyways, going to boot up a Linux VM now, should have done so much earlier It's just always so messed up with getting external volumes on USB to recognized.
I'll sort this ASAP thank you for bringing it to my attention
Sent from my One V using Tapatalk 2
Thanks for trying so hard. Greatly appreciated
On a side-note... I tried with a VM, but whatever way I tried to connect the SD card to the Linux guest, I did not succeed. So I am here again, no way to create an ext4 filesystem from inside the phone. Currently I play with the thought about installing a minimal, chrooted debia in my phone. But then I still have the problem with parted moaning about "overlapping partitions", which must be invisible to me, since I just checked the partition table with OS X' fdisk and all numbers seem in sequence. Okay, going to the other thread

I've been trying to help you out as much as possible, but you really should post this in the q&a or general. You also could have just asked in the cwm3 thread rather than starting a completely new thread...
To answer your question: Just reboot into recovery and it should be orange. However, if you do this make sure you have a compatible kernel ready. If you odined using the deodexed cwm3 version I sent you too then you are good to go and can reboot no problem the kernel is compatible. If you used the one click cwm method then you will need to download an ext4 compatible kernel such as Twilight or Genocide.

Two ways:
If you have the SDK set up and know how to use adb, do this:
Code:
adb shell
mount
If not, you can go to the market, download "Terminal Emulator" (there's a chance whatever ROM you are on came with it) and open in up and type this:
Code:
mount
Both are going to spit out a lot of data. Just look for:
Code:
/dev/block/stl9 /system ext4 <MORE STUFF>
/dev/block/stl10 /data ext4 <MORE STUFF>
/dev/block/stl11 /cache ext4 <MORE STUFF>
If it says rfs instead of ext4, then you have rfs.
Dnathan, first thanks you have been extremely helpful. I did an all in one stock flash, root with cwm 3.0. So I want to make sure I'm good to go for my first Rom. I did not use a kernel or anything, but so far so good.

If you have thanks left use them when people help you, if you don't then just try to hit them up later. I know it can be scary, but you will get the hang of all this.

Yeah it looks like it didn't fully convert you. Data and cache should also be ext4.
Interesting, I just booted into cwm and the phone just started doing stuff. I then checked again and got this.

Looks like that fixed it...clockworkmod 3.0.0.5/6 will convert automatically to ext4 when you first enter recovery
EDIT: Can theimpaler747 or another moderator move this thread to Epic 4G Q&A please?
Moved to Q&A. Please post in the correct section. Thank you.
Total SpaceA few weeks ago I have a problem with memory SD
when I install any version (JPU, JPI, or JPY) but when boot on the
Android Sytem recovery <3e> displayed the following message:
update,media, please wait
E:can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1
(no sucho file or directory)
E: copy_dbdata/media:Can't mount SDCARD:
your storage not prepared yet, please use UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed.
After that flash with ODIN and speedmod-kernel-k12k-500hz
Then the phone starts NORMALLY, but it shows me two pop up:
Preparing internal SD, SD CARD IS DAMAGED, after that I go to:
SETTING/SD card and phone storage and shows me:

Thanks, I tried using linktosd and formated the first partition of SD card using fat32 and second part using ext 2. It formated correctly but nook kept stating the disk was damaged.
Hello,
I want to use data2sd for my WFS but it doesn't work. It hangs on the white HTC bootscreen.
Over the ADB shell I saw the problem that the internal /data-partition is still mounted. But the external /data-partition is mounted too!

/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data ext4 rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,nouser_xattr,commit=50,barrier=0,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc 0 0
In this configuration ls /data lists the files moved from the data2sd installer script. After umount /data only the intertnal /data-partition is mountet and ls /data lists only the things the data2sd installer script leave like "dalvik-cache".
So the data2sd script should work. But the problem is that the internal /data partition isn't unmounted while booting I think.
How can I fix this?

which rom you exactly use?is it based on stock ? and you can try with ext3 partition.

I try to masquerade the link that the forum software doesn't detect it as link: www . htcmania . com/showthread.php?t=460658
This one works fine for other devices of other persons - also with data2sd.
If I mount the Ext4-partition on another point I can use it without any problems.
With another data2sd script based on ext3 there is the same issue.

Im not sure about data2sd scripts but you can try alternate scripts like int2ext+,int2ext4+ or a2sd+
These all are pretty new and fast..

These all are pretty new and fast..

A2sd work how it should but is not that one I want. The same with Link2SD.
I didn't try the int2ext4 script but it had a good idea: Instead of unmounting the internal /data (where it hangs because of business) and mount it somewhere else, the better way is to move it with "mount --move" directly to the new place. After changing this in the data2sd script everthing works great now!
Thanks for this hint. :good:

i guess a2sd+ works same as link2sd.it will mount downloaded apps,dalvik cache and cache to sd-ext.system will remain untouchable.

I have modified this script to work with the SM-T310. If you want it to work on other Tab 3 models you will need to provide me your external sd card device node.
Follow instructions in the quoted text below using the script attached to this post.
Here's a script I modified originally its a script written by mattiadj so I gotta give him props
Here's his thread its for the Galaxy S III I think - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1772234
This will make your external SDcard as Internal and your Internal SDCard external
It mounts data/media to your extSdcard
Please make a backup before you do this, just in case.
Let me know if you have any problems
1. Anyway.. you will need to place this script in your /data folder (Yes you need to be rooted)
2. Next use ES file manager and give it 777 permission (For the non-linux users, that's full permission on it, Read, write, execute for just user)
-----------------to do this with ES file manager just press and hold down on the file and look at its properties. At the bottom you can see Permissions, hit the Change button and check-mark everything for user
3. Use Smamager (Download it if you dont have it, ... .its free) and goto the script file and open as script/execute, then when it opens choose "Is executable" and then click "Su" & "Boot". Click "Save".
4. Reboot and enjoy.
To go back to the normal setup just delete the script or open it back up in smanager and clear the SU & Boot options.
In order for some apps to function properly you will have to copy some folders from your old internal sdcard to your "New" one.
For example.. aptoide wouldnt work until the aptoide repos folder was copied over. If you want you can just copy over everything to be safe. I on the other hand just picked and chose what I needed

Untested so your device might be consumed by the Banefire, but find attached the script requested with the appropriate change.

one of the lines say mount -t vfat -o umask=000 /dev/block/vold/179:73 /mnt/sdcard
i think mines a exFAT 64g would that effect it? does my sdcard need to be reformated to vfat?

my english is very bad.i can't understand forum topics.
my SM T210 7.0 how swap memory?
sorry for english
Exfat and vfat are the same for system type no need to reformat your card.
This script is known to work on the 310 (8" WiFi only). At this point the 210 version (7") apparently does not work. The banefire burns strongly.
The script allows the external SD card to be used in place of the internal SD.
sent from a buggy xda app by some miracle
Does this work for T210?
Please make an test version for it atleast.
any way to get this to work on t211 ?
