[Q] [MIUI] i just installed it BUT What is wrong with my App2SD+??

here is my problem in picture

So, as you see here the applications i`m RESTORING using Titanium Back up aren`t being installed on the App2SD ext but rather they are all going to the Internal Memory then i moved them (one by one) to the SD but the internal memory is still the same and the SD partition decreases but the ext partition stays as empty as ever,,,, So can anyone help me?
Note: i WIPED everything before installing MIUI!! ("Wipe data/factory reset")

There is none :] I emulate it with a Folder i've put into the dock.

Miui places ALL applications on multiple pages on the device. There is no actual app drawer unless you place all apps into a folder and move it to the dock. Are you positive titanium backup was sucessfully installed? Try doing a reboot on the device.

Any Dev who can help

Anyone HELP me guys i flashed a new ROM to get a free space and a fast phone!!!

Problem is still here!!

I think your question may be a bit specific for the 'Desire General' section.
I think MIUI specific questions are best off in the relevant 'Desire Android Development' threads.
Just a thought.
PS
I think there are several flavours for the App2/wherever of MIUI -you'll have to follow the threads to get the full picture.

Same thing
Did you select the option, ''Force move to same location'' or something in Titanium preferences?
I too had the same problem when i was trying out a MIUI based rom. I thought it was a problem with the A2SD or something. So i reinstalled the rom, manually installed all my apps using appbrain and it was ok. The apps mostly went to A2SD partition like its supposed to.
I think its something to do with Titanium itself.

I read on miui page to use in a terminal emulator:
su
a2sd cachesd
I solved by this way..

[DICSUSSION] Causes and Solution of the Huge Games (Gameloft) Crashes / MTP DATA BUG?

Why this thread
I am with AOKPb34, franco r143, and NO USB fast charge nor undervolting.
Recently, I have downloaded Dungeon Hunter 3 (1.0.8 latest), ran on my phone, downloaded the game data, continue, but! then I couldnt go pass the gameloft icon and the game went back out to the homescreen. I was sad, and uninstalled it just then. More recently, I have also installed Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD (1.3.3 latest) too, and however, after all the successful game data downloads, and after license check, it crashed!!
This time, I am not believing that my phone can not hold such huge games, therefore I dug into the issue and went address what the root problem of these crashes is.
The problem
And there comes my conclusion of such an issue - The "downloaded game data" (should be existing on the /sdcard/Android/data/com.xxxxxxxxxx/ if we are on a phone with UMS but not MTP) is NOT at the right place BEFORE you reboot. Where is it stored? No one knows. And let me demonstrate and explain why, below.
The solution (temporary)
Simply, do not be sad when you face the game crash, and reboot the device. Now everything works because the files are at the right place now! (sadly, DH3 was not working still, for me, but, with the same procedure below, asphalt 6 WORKED!)
Demonstration and Explanation (i know its abit annoying but PLEASE READ!!!)
1. First, I downloaded the game from market
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. I checked my phone storage with app "disk usage", my "system data" (probably /data/data) is 220mb
3. Opened the app and download the required data
4. Open the app, after this black screen, it crashed and went back to app drawer!
5. I went back to disk usage, My /data/data is 1283mb??! Note that this is now in the "non rooted" mode of disk usage
6. Surely it is not in /gameloft/games because (i guess) newer ones dont go there anymore but /Android/data
7. However when checking with ASTRO (therefore non-root), there is nothing!
8. Double check with OI File Manager (therefore non-root), still nothing either
9. The surprise is that, in ROOTEXPLORER, for the SAME directory, now there are all those downloaded game files, which is about 1GB
10. Now when going back to disk usage with ROOT mode, those "System data" now moved to "Media" (/sdcard) without me doing anything at all
11. Then I went to ROOTEXPLORER and check /data/data/[the folder of dungeon hunter 3], and it shows 22mb only but not the 1GB as shown in non-rooted explorers
12. After all these, I made a reboot.
13. The non-root mode of disk usage, it went from 1283mb back to a normal value of 221mb, and there the folder goes
14. Finally, they are also shown up in ASTRO, and confirmed the right size of the game data folder.
15. Although, after these, my DH3 was STILL CRASHING, but WITH THE SAME METHOD, my Asphalt 6 HD turned from crashing to working.​
My Question
Although, even if not focusing on whether the game is crashing or not, does anyone know why the storage phenomenon existed, if you have knowledge on such thing? I mean, the "data shift"!
Seriously, thank you for your time reading and please kindly post a reply if you would like to discuss!
Honestly, Miasmic.

Asphalt 6 worked perfectly for me from the market, dh3 nudda.

[Q] Re-partitioning option

Hello, I have spent all day looking for this answer without any luck so I am hoping someone can answer my question here.
I wanted to upgrade my SII to the latest Cyanogenmod I did the following:
1). Downloaded and used Odin to install StockCWM-EL26.tar (CWM v5.0.2.7)
2). Using my SD card upgraded to CWM v5.8.1.5 (newest version I could find)
3). Factory reset and wiped everything.
4). Using my SD card installed the latest version of Cyanogenmod cm-10.2-20140330-NIGHTLY-d710 (Jelly Bean v4.3.1)
Everything booted fine and worked fine however I quickly ran out of app space. I noticed that my App partition space is 2GB where my S3 phone running the same OS (factory version) has the entire phone's space available for apps (16GB). I figured to fix this issue I just needed to re-partition the phone using a PIT file but I can't find this anywhere. Am I missing something or am I just stuck with a 2GB App partition and no chance of anything larger?
Thank you very much...
Taran.

There is no "option" to change partitions for this phone. Or any device anywhere haha. Its more of a procedure. Anyways a lesson in terminology doesn't help. But yes you are "stuck" with 2 gigs. But I've installed literally hundreds of apps before having this problem. You should look at app2sd or something. No need to partition anything. Good luck ^ ^

oh...
Thanks for the quick response Linux guy. I am sad to hear I can't re-partition the phone but at least I can quite looking around for a way to do it...
I've moved all my apps using the built in "Move to SD" function in the system app menu but still almost out of space. I'll check out App2SD.
Thanks again,
Taran

Here's something else to do. Go to settings>apps and click the menu button to sort your apps by size. I bet you have an app that's being a hog *pictures*

If I was having space issues the first thing I'd do is delete Facebook in my case ^ ^

Ok, time to start house cleaning and saving for a newer phone.
Thanks again.

Check the apps that use any type of avi/avatar image...Twitter, Facebook tend to Cache images and sap storage as well, each app selected will show you the cached size
Bashing away at my HTC Desire C

Thanks again for the replies. After a bit of looking around I ended up using Link2SD by Bulent Akpinar. So far that has solved all the issues I was having with space (seems to work a lot better then the built in "Phone to SD" did).
Take care...

need help about music on sd card

hi guys, with all the problems kitkat is giving to us with the sd-cards, I thought that at least music will be playable through it.
I just put some music on my sd-card, and went for a run, the HTC music app recognized the music but when i pressed play no music came out
I tried music from my internal memory and it worked perfectly...
is this a known thing? can it be fixed? and last question, I did researched about it and could not find anything but I read some articles that suggest that android L will support sd-card, is it true?
BTW, I'm on rooted and S-OFF device using latest ARHD if it matters.
cheers

I have no problem playing musics from external sdcard.
All my music files are on external sdcard (Don't have much anyway)

Why don't you post in that ROM thread, maybe someone has idea why it doesn't work for you.
BTW I'm on a rooted device with stock ROM and external sdcard writeable fixed.

what do you mean by writeable fixed?

Means that the sdcard can be writeable. As you mentioned above, google stop the sdcard write access on KitKat, so you need to fix that on your own.
Anyway, what I know most custom ROM has this fix included in the ROM. So ARHD may have that fix included. So ... it's best to ask in the ROM thread as your problem may not related to sdcard read/write problem.

Must be a Rom issue as I copied over a load of music to my sd card the other day and the stock music player played it no problem. I'm stock unrooted by the way.

[GUIDE]How to move app data to SD card, running Lollipop

Root is needed. Since many people have been complaining that you cannot install apps to the SD card I found a solution.
It is an app called gltosd. I have been using that on the stock ROM too.
Now the tutorial:
Install the app. Next go to your internal memory and copy the data of the game to /sdcard1/obb which is the folder gl stores app data inside. Now after moving that reboot your device and run the game in the app, after pressing the chain button on the top.
If you have a Gameloft game then store the data to
/sdcard1/games
Data folders (previously in /internal/android/data) are moved to:
/sdcard1/data
Again if you didn't see obb goes:
/sdcard1/obb
Here you go that is it. If you still have issues running apps reboot.
If I solved your issue please just thank me.

It only takes 2 taps to thank somebody here.

It works. But still cant install games from Google Play. For me the best was storage swap, so... finger crossed that anybody find out working method on lollipop.

So as to move apps to SD card and to edit System apps you can also use Link2SD application. (Root needed)

Well, bro, nice app, but there's one more great available, Folder Mount... #JustSaying

Thanks bro, it worked !!! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

It's a lot easier bro, you just have to create a folder with same name as it is on internal storage, place the folder at appropriate location, as per need and just have to link them, sdcard folder will be mounted at boot and you can launch the app directly, so efficient.
Here's a example for you
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Actually this does not move apps 2 sd crad, you may want to change the title of this thread
And for the same purpose, I suggest using folder mount because it is far better :good:
You could mount any apk data with folder mount.
