I have a rom with a2sd installed but I noticed a lack of internal memory. I partition my microsd to 512mb but there is still a lack of phone memory. What is the problem?
Has a2sd been correctly installed? Assuming you are running DT a2sd, run 'a2sd check' in adb or terminal in the root shell (i.e after 'su') and read the text to see if a2sd has been installed correctly.

nops, its darktremor a2sd 2.7. everything is ok by test terminal
Uh. What do you mean by "lack of internal memory"? Like, df -h output for starters. Also, ls - l /data and ls -l /cache output.

yep, I did not su a2sdcache Now it is with plenty of space in the phone memory thx
Well, at least it is solved. On that note,

if you really had run the a2sd check script, it would have told you that cache is residing on the phone.

Is there a way to zipalign apps after you have installed the ROM? I found one but it won't work because either A. its for g1 only or B. I'm doing it wrong. Either way, could someone lemme know if there is a way and or how? I did it with a rom I flashed last night and I had a lot more free RAM. Pretty sure it was because of zipalign since it had everything else set up the same as the rom i have now.
You can turn ZipAlign on and off using these commands a2sd zipalign / a2sd nozipalign

for all your other a2sd command type a2sd help while in the bin dir and the dev included lots of tools and options. Hope this helps.

Guys....
I need help on enabling EXT2 RFS Lag Fix.
I flashed Bionix Fusion 1.1 with the SSL Fix
I flashed Project Core v1 Kernel
I'm trying to enable the EXT2 RFS Lag Fix using the instructions on Team Whiskey's site.
adb shell --> DONE
su --> DONE
******Here's where I get stuck at********
mv /system/bin/userinit.sh /system/bin/used ---> Error saying "FAILED ON '/SYSTEM/BIN/USERINIT.SH' - NO SUCH FILE OR DIRECTORY
**********************************
Any ideas why this file isn't in the BIN folder? I checked via Root Directory and didnt find it at all.
Let me know.
Thank you
I'm having this same error as well. Anybody know how to proceed? Also running Bionix 1.1 with Project Core kernel. Thanks in advance.
Those instructions are to disable EXT2 lagfix, you should follow this:
adb shell
su
busybox dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/dataimg bs=1024 count=1048576 (this transfer takes roughly 3 minutes, be patient!)
busybox mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0
busybox losetup /dev/loop0 /data/dataimg
busybox mkfs.ext2 /dev/loop0
mkdir /data/data1
mv /system/bin/used /system/bin/userinit.sh
reboot

Thanks StefanB86. I'll give it a shot! Just curious.. how can you see if this actually worked and if it actually running the lagfix?

Go to settings/sd card and phone storage. If your available space in application storage is less than 1gb then it worked. You can also run a quadrand test. Anything 1800 and up means its working.

i followed these, they are the same as they have been since the 2.1 releases (im on obsidian 4.2 stock kernel). i get up to:
mv /system/bin/used /system/bin/userinit.sh
but screen returns:
failed on 'system/bin/used' - no such file or directory
logic tells me i can create a file called used in system/bin but to be honest, i have no idea what the commands do and i really dont want to amplify any problems or create any for myself. so, any suggestions? See screen shot for adb.

THIS TWEAK IS FOR 2.3.3 ONLY
REMOVAL OF THIS TWEAK
Reflash the Rom OR
Flash a new Rom OR
Remove /cache/dalvik-cache, /system/bin/dalvik2cache and the last line in /etc/install-recovery.sh
And here is why this Tweak wont work on Versions higher than 2.3.3:

The new firmware changes the partition layout halving the /cache partition from 200MB to 100MB. Unless your Davlik cache is smaller then 80MB you are bound to have problems with this sadly.

Did you ever wonder about why your 380Mb /data partion is almost completely filled but you don't have much Apps installed?
Here's how you can get about 80~100Mb more space for Apps. (Depends on which apps are Installed)
First, I am not responsible for any Damage or Brick or whatever which is caused by wrong use of this Guide. Because using root is involved there is always a very minor chance of breaking something but normally nothing should go wrong by exactly following this guide.
Warning: Because the Dalvik-cache gets cleared your mail account settings will get cleared
As already mentioned:You will need root and Insecure ADB
For root follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043630
And here is the Insecure ADB apk: http://android.modaco.com/topic/339298-insecure-adb-for-the-arc-updated-now-a-simple-to-use-apk/
Now the procedure:
Make sure your Play is attached to the Computer and Insecure Adb is installed.
Run "adb remount"
Download the attachment and push the extracted dalvik2cache to /system/bin/ by running "adb push /path/to/dalvik2cache /system/bin/"
Run adb shell
"chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvik2cache"
Now you need to run this script on every boot. This is done by adding it to /etc/install-recovery.sh Just run "echo ’/system/bin/dalvik2cache’ >> /etc/install-recovery.sh
"chmod 755 /etc/install-recovery.sh"
"reboot"
The Play should now reboot (it's okay if it reboots twice) and recreate the dalvik-cache which should take about 5 minutes.
You can check if it worked by doing "adb shell" and in the shell "df".
Regards,
Laberkopf

I think it would be better to repartition the nand because there is a / partition with 200mb space which is completely unused.

I just ran your DC2Cache script, works perfect, my internal storage went from 115mb to 275mb Changing the MTD partiton tables is also another idea, especially if there is a 200mb unused / partition, /cache could also be slimmed down to like 50-60mb and the rest added to /data
df after dc2cache:
sh-3.2# df

You need to write those commands in a terminal (cmd in Windows). Before you try this, I suggest you to familiarise yourself with said terminal so that you 1) don't mess up things and 2) can try this kind of tricks in the future.
All my sync accounts were gone after moving, that is probably stored somewhere in dalvik?
And i'm having some difficulties getting whatsapp to work, it says my message history is damaged and can't restore it, but thats not that big of a deal
New market also constantly fails now, but deleting it and installing again will fix it.
Further i went from 80MB free to 205 :O
Thats a big improvement

You first need the Android SDK
Install it.
Go to the program files/android/android-sdk/platform-tools/ folder
extract your dalvik2cache zip there
shift + right mouse button and then open command prompt here.
make sure you have insecure adb installed on your phone !!!
type in the terminal all followed by an enter:
adb remount
adb push dalvik2cache /system/bin/
adb shell
# chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvik2cache
# echo ’/system/bin/dalvik2cache’ >> /etc/install-recovery.sh
# chmod 755 /etc/install-recovery.sh
# reboot

The # is a sign that you are in the adb shell, you don't have to type it yourself.
Hope this is clear enough

Nope dont do that! The dalvik-cache folder in /data is just a link to the real dalvik-cache folder on /cache and so it doesn't take up space.
Ah okay sounds good I'll just leave it alone then

Is there any negatives with doing this? I heard something about a problem with the market after? if so what problem and is it fixed?
Also, can it be reversed?

The cache is used to download apps from the market, so say your DC gets so big you only have 10mb left free in /cache, you wouldnt be able to download a 11mb+ apk from the market

Given that we have CWM which allows us to wipe the dalvik-cache when necessary, that should not be a big concern.
im following this to the letter,
adb remount
adb push dalvik2cache /system/bin/
adb shell
# chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvik2cache
# echo ’/system/bin/dalvik2cache’ >> /etc/install-recovery.sh
I get cannot create /ect/install-recovery.sh: directory nonexistent
any advice ?
WARN: For developer only.
attachment is the EXPANDSD script.
Why use it?
So many applications use /sdcard for mass data storage(gameloft, navigation...),
but I9100's internal_sd size is limit to 11G, so we need external_sd's space.
But these applications dosen't know how to use external_sd, old method is hack the apk for external_sd, but this will change apk's signature, and need smali/baksmali to work. My method work in system level, don't need change any apk file.
How to use:
1.make expandsd.ownhere dirctory in external_sd root directory.
2.move internal_sd's directory(for example:/gameloft) to expandsd.ownhere
3.run init_expandsd.sh
Theory：
use 'mount --bind' feature, bind external_sd's dir to internal_sd.
Because the sd card using fat32 partition format, the 'ln -s' command does not work, so the "mount --bind" is the only way to dynamically change the directory content.
Hi mate,
Thks for your shares. I have a question. How run init_expandsd.sh?
I tried gscript and init.d, but doesn't seem to be working

you can try to use terminal emu, just type su then navigate to folder where the script located, then type sh init_expandsd.sh then enter. this might do the trick to execute .sh

problems when connecting phone to pc
hi,
tried the "mount --bind" in order to try your script.
works fine. the directory contents is shared between the 2 path's,
but i have a problem when i connect the phone to a pc.
when i try to disconnect, the sdcard and external_sd are not
available anymore until i reboot the phone
note: the commands that i have executed are:
Code:
mkdir /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo
echo "test" > /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo/test
mkdir /mnt/sdcard/foo
mount --bind /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/foo /mnt/sdcard/foo
Can this script be placed in init.d folder for autorun at boot?
Edit: sorry, already answered above: no, it cannot.

Hi,
it's very easy indeed, once you got the point.
I do most of my stuff using an "adb shell" session so I'll post here my steps to get it working.
Also I like simple implementation so my script is the strict minimum needed to mount necessary folders
I assume you have a rooted device with working busybox and a kernel that supports /etc/init.d/
I suggest you do the test on a dummy folder before applying on a real folder.
So start by creating a folder called /sdcard/dummy
Do it the way you want , I do it with an "adb shell" session
Code:
cd /sdcard
mkdir dummy
Then copy some files in it (photos for examples)
Code:
cd /sdcard
cd DCIM
cd Camera
cp `ls -1 |tail -5` /sdcard/dummy
From now on, we consider we want to move transparently /sdcard/dummy to the external SD
1. move the folder to the external sd
CAUTION : I'm running a CM9 rom => my external sd is mounted on /mnt/emmc
Standard samsung sdcard mount is /sdcard/external_sd
The path might be different according to your brand and rom
Moving the folder code
Code:
cd /sdcard
mv dummy /mnt/emmc/
2. Create the mount point in the indernal SD
Code:
cd /sdcard
mkdir dummy
3.a Check the mount is successful by manually doing it
Code:
mount --bind /mnt/emmc/dummy /sdcard/dummy
3.b Check you see exactly the same thing on both folders
Both commands should return exactly the same output
Code:
ls -l /sdcard/dummy
Code:
ls -l /mnt/emmc/dummy
If everything is fine, then you're good to go
4. Automate mount at boot time
Create a script in /etc/init.d to automate the mount at boot time
I personally use "vi" but most people prefer graphical UIs, I can't recommend any here, do it your own way
So basically you would go root,remount /system in read/write mode and create the file
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cd /etc/init.d
vi 90binds
Insert following lines, save and exit
Note that the "sleep 60" is to let the system boot up before mounting partitions (thanks to the initial script shared here)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 60
mount --bind /mnt/emmc/dummy /sdcard/dummy
Change owner and permissions, flush disk cache and remount /system in read only
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
cd /etc/init.d
chown root:shell
chmod 6755 90binds
sync
mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
To check, run
Code:
su
cd /etc/init.d
ls -l 90binds
The output should look like this :
Code:
-rwsr-sr-x 1 root shell [I]0 MMM D HH:MM[/I] 90binds
5. Now you can reboot and check - after reboot - that the mount is done
Both commands should return exactly the same output (always ran in an "adb shell" session)
Code:
ls -l /sdcard/dummy
Code:
ls -l /mnt/emmc/dummy
6. Now you're good to move other folders
Basically, you move the folder to external SD
Create the mount point on the internal SD
Append the mount command in the 90binds script
And that's it
Hope this helps

Hi guys!
I created this thread mainly because many useful things can be done in Terminal emulator. I will show you some simple commands which are useful.
Very useful if you don't have Root explorer when you need it.
Make sure you take a Nandroid backup before you try out just in case you can restore when you do something wrong!
You can get terminal Emulator from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
Note: Most commands need root. So type su and press enter and grant superuser permissions to Terminal Emulator!
First type this command before using any of the commands below just in case(needs root)
Code:
su
Some useful commands:
Turning device off (Turns your device off very fast!! ):
Code:
poweroff
Rebooting:
Code:
reboot
Rebooting to Recovery
Code:
reboot recovery
Rebooting to download mode:
Code:
reboot download
Forcing Most Apps to install to SDcard(Root needed with Terminal Emulator, no need root with ADB):
Code:
pm setInstallLocation 2
Alternatively, you can type 0 at the end instead of 2 for Auto location install mode or 1 for Internal memory install mode
To check what the current install location is:
Code:
pm getInstallLocation
Mounting R/W in system(Use with caution)
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t /system
If above one doesnt work, try this.
Code:
mount -o rw,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
Unmounting R/W in system.
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t /system
If above code doesn't work, try this
Code:
mount -o ro,remount -t ext3 /dev/block/mmcblk1p21 /system
Moving files from sdcard to system (Use after mounting R/W):
Code:
busybox cp /sdcard/<path> /system/<path>
Example: busybox cp /sdcard/demo/framework-res.apk /system/framework/
Changing file permissions to rw-r--r-- (Use after mounting R/W):
Code:
chmod 644 <path>
Example 1: chmod 644 /system/app/mms.apk
Example 2: chmod 644 /system/app/*.apk (This command changes the file permission of all apps in the folder to rw-r--r--)
Changing the current directory:
Code:
cd <path>
Example: cd /sdcard
Listing all the files and folders under the current directory:
Code:
ls
If you want to view all the files and folders in your sdcard, type:
cd /sdcard
ls
Making a new folder:
Code:
mkdir <path>
Example: mkdir /sdcard/newfolder
Removing files (For System files, Use after mounting R/W)
Code:
rm <path>
Example: rm /system/app/demoapp.apk
Removing Folders:
Code:
rmdir <path>
Get info of your build.prop values
Code:
getprop
That's all for now. I will add a few more later!
If you have any more new commands or if I have given an improper command, feel free to post it in the thread
Thanks for reading.
Have you any idea on why if I were to enter pm set-install-location 2(SD card), the next line would be "Killed"?

That is the use of the bootanimation command. You can stop it either by pulling battery or closing terminal emulator!
But what I did to stop it was to rotate my phone to landscape and somehow close terminal emulator.
But in ADB it is easier to stop using exit command.
