If anyone has trouble installing A2EXT or A2SD, or simply don't have an SD card class 9000! then S2E is for you.
S2E is an application .apk you download from the Android Market, set what you want to go on your SD card, and that's IT!
No scripts, no errors.. no hassle.
::Note:: You must have your SD card partitioned.. which you can do with "Rom Manager"

OMG!! Downloading NOW ! I'm doing a fresh install of the latest nightly I'll try it out and let you know how it works. Thanks again!
Troy.
I think that I....I....I love you. lol
This only works with CM7, not with other ROM like Salsa Slide. Not testing with other ROM so don't know if it works. However, this soft is pretty good.

Anyone using that on the slide? Can you use it on top of darktremmor?
Ooh I remember this.
I saw it on the XDA Portal back when it got posted. Worked pretty well.
Just reporting back with my results......
Works Perfectly!!!! Thank you again!
This is on the latest nightly (#142 - Android 2.3.5 O.C. to 844Mhz)
I started using this on both my N1 and my Slide about 3 months ago. Never a problem. DT is buggy and seems to be in perpetual beta development. Good post OP.
*I've only used this with cm7*
ive never had apps2sd before and wow that was easy. shweet.
Wonderful app!!!
Has anyone gone from one nightly to another with this? Did it stick?
Hi all. I've partitioned my SD card using rom manager with a 512 mb ext partition and a 30 mb swap vol, yet when I got to S2E, I see no space on my ext partition. Any special changes that I need to do to the settings in the app or something else I might be missing? Thanks.

This is kinda strange...try partitioning straight from the recovery menu, I used ClockworkMod 3.0.0.5 and it worked great (I like this version because you can manually adjust how big you want the ext partition while ROM Manager and ClockworkMod 2.5.0.7 only let you go up to 512 mb)
Thanks guys, for some reason Rom Manager hadn't actually partitioned the whole thing. It made my regular sd partition smaller and left what would be the ext partition and swap patition sizes alone. It just didn't create them. So I erased my sd card and retried to partition through rom manager and it worked. I'm on 2.5.0.7.
Glad it is working for you, it is a great app.
had the partition on my card already, but never got around to using it - found the scripts to be too much. this was EASY AS PIE! however, my apps was only 17mb. my davlik cache was 64mb, so that was nice to move. i've now got 100mb free. i was able to reload some apps i recently removed because i was hovering ~15-20mb. this is surely a great app

I'm having the same issue, partition with RM and the only option here is download cache on S2E

I've tried searching this issue with no luck, surprisingly! I thought it would be more common.
Anyway, when I boot up my Nexus One, it takes <Sandlot>FOR-EVV-ERRR</Sandlot> to mount my SD card. I've got most of my apps on that card, so it's super annoying!
Like I've said, I've got a bunch of apps (40?) loaded on to this card, a few documents, 4 CDs... random stuff. I haven't formatted the card in a looong time... nor have I wiped the phone in a loooong time. I am a crackflasher - I flash a new ROM every day, but I VERY RARELY have issues, so that's why I haven't wiped in so long. This is really the only issue I have, and, if somebody knows the command, I would be happy to just mount the SD manually through the terminal when I need it to.
The phone is a Nexus One. I'm running a CM7.1(or whatever it is) based ROM and kernel. The SD card is the 16gig one that came with the phone.
Any help is appreciated!
Billy
Cliffnotes: What's the terminal command to mount the SD card to the phone? So the ROM can access it?
Ok, so I guess I diagnosed this issue... after rebooting my phone and waiting for my apps to become available I was able to, through the settings menu, view the space used/available on the SD card. Sooo... it is mounted? And the delay is just Android loading the apps from the SD card? How can I speed that up?
Thanks,
Billy

Have you tried increasing the read and write speed of your sd card?

Thank you for the reply,

You increase the read/write speed by increasing the SD card cache size. You can use an SD speed boost app to do so easily, there are a couple on the market. There's also a script that you can run.
I had a similar issue. I've been running the same rom for over six months, and initially just flashed updates over the existing version and only wiped caches. I'd strongly recommend that you go ahead and perform a full wipe. It may seem like a pain, but I am 95%, certain that it will fix your issue. Just backup your apps & data with Titanium Backup and after you've completely wiped & flashed your new rom only restore what you need. Weeding out unused apps should speed up your phone as well. You can always restore them if you need them.

Hi, I've been wondering why my P500 on the stock rom 2.3.3 has been taking about 4 minutes to boot! Well I just tried booting without the SD card and it booted up in about 30 seconds! Does anyone know why? most of my apps are on the SD, I also have some music. But the SD is 16gb and a class 10 from SanDisk.
Any incite would be a great help.
Hey guys i have been unable to move/install apps to my sd card ever since changing to MIUI I'm not sure whether this is a problem with the ROM or not (i think i may have insalled applications to SD on a previous GB version of MIUI)
I am using a rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 with the latest MIUI based on 4.0.4. before MIUI i was on CM7 stable and i remember messing around with some settings there to try and get my phone to read music off the sd card as well as internal memory-(where all my downloaded music was going). I also may have done a dodgy partition on my old 32gb micro sd or some how partitioned my internal storage of my phone...
I have recently successfully partitioned my Sandisk 64gb micro SDXC to this tutorial...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343187
when i go to move a 'moveable' app eg. Paypal through 'Link2Sd' it comes up with an error saying "pkg:/data/app/com.paypal.android.p2pmobile-1.apk Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_CONTAINER_ERROR]
when i go to move a 'moveable' app through 'App 2 SD Pro' it says 'couldn't move app'

try to format ur sd and repartition ur sd ext. and flash ur script again.
u may try amarullz "ad2sdx" or dk_zerocool "mount2sd" script...
did you try Titanium Backup to move those apps?
also u can do in adb shell "pm setinstalllocation 2"
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
when you partition the sd card doesn't it format it then? I repartitioned my SD card still the same problem.
I also went to back up my current rom today through 'ROM manager' and it said something along the lines of...
SD card mounted...
SD card space free: 30437MB
............(can't remember)
...No SD_EXT found
something something...checking MD5 sums
It then waited a little bit and rebooted without creating a backup. I then booted into CWM and tried doing a back up again. It came up with the same relative message as above but it decided to make a back up. The back up folder had 7 files in it (this seems normal to me) and also backed up to my micro SD which is new
Today i also tried moving apps with titanium backup. It moved them effortlessly or so i thought and then later i checked the SD card on the computer the apps files were no where to be seen so i double checked through Apps 2 SD, Link2sd and the system app info on my phone and they all show that the apps have not been moved to my micro sd card.
i havent tried the adb shell or script methods you have sugested but i will soon and let you know how i go.
thanks heaps in advanced!
i hv seen many ppl complaining abt cwm creating bad partitions. so i would suggest it via pc.
for formatting use "sdformatter"
for partitioning use "minitool partition wizard".
ur issues seem to be wid bad partition.

Precisely...the pictures in my first post show that storage sections labled 'internal storage' and 'usb storage' are both on my phones memory. I am able to take the micro sd out of the phone and these storage locations are still mounted and installed apps still work. Also when i open my native file explorer to see where my apps are and select 'SD card' it goes to the directory of 'usb storage'. This problem occurs with apps such as Astro and other file managing apps.
sry, am totally lost. may be someone else will help you out. gud luck

Hi!
I have a problem with my Legend's internal storage. I used Link2SD and moved all my apps to my SD-card. When I download something från Play Store, it says that the memory is full :S ... Even if I used Link2SD, it says that the memory is full. When I look at internal storage memory, it says that only 35 MB is available and that I used 150 MB .. Any help?

In the internal storage are not only the apps, there are also the cache, the Dalvik cache and the app-data. The Dalvik-cache and app-data you can't delete, but you can search in the google-market for an app like this to clear the cache.

Open Link2SD, Create Link all apps you can. Some app you can't Create Link, update these app and try to link again.

Clockwork mod recovery will create an ext3 partition as well as the standard fat32 when you use the format SD card feature. When the option for 'swap' comes up select or type 0 (you don't need swap partition I believe)...
As you should already be aware if you format your SD card you will lose everything so copy it all to a PC first then copy it back again.

Woohoo well done you have success, you have your ext partition. Just make sure in link2sd to turn on auto link in the settings to "link" your apps and stuff to the ext.
Edit: oh just noticed it says ext2 on your screen shot gotta check mine now... mine says ext2 even though I know its ext3....

Advice: get rid of the ext partition (do that on your pc), format your card and start over againg with partitioning. Use CWM for that. Do NOT partition your card without deleting the existing ext partition. you will end up with two ext, your phone will not understand that.
500MB at least for ext space, gives you plenty of room for apps, cache etc.

Yeah I'm not talking about installing apps I was using on a new ROM, I'm talking about being able to create a backup that INCLUDES the partition being used by Link2SD. As it is right now 4ext recovery is not seeing that partition and I'm not sure why. Neither is OBackup.

Have you swapped it ?

because I need more space on my phone's internal storage.

it is not the same as using the Android "move to SD" that is built in. what it does is after you create a second partition on your SD card, it makes your phone think it's part of it's internal storage, thus allowing you to install an ungodly amount of apps It uses sim-linking, if I'm correct. Check out the site it will give you more info. I love it. I made the second partition with GPARTED on a linux box. I may try doing it from recovery but I will have to wipe my entire sdcard for that and I didn't want to have to do that. I can test it with another sdcard and see if the new partition created is able to be used by link2sd then also backed up by the recovery. I'll have to check that out.

Yes, I understand..
I have not used sd2link since the Htc Desire(which was very low memory) and Desire HD2 (windows/android)...
I find now, that most app's/apk's now use the sdcard
and a app like app2sd keeps you informed
Ext3 or Ext4 must be used for Ext.
More common way of increasing memory is to swap internal with a ext4 on a fast sd card.:victory:
None of this, probably, is no help to you...
If you are rooted, you could use Titanium
Hope some of this helps .... Good luck
