Hi there,
I really like this Gingerbread Sense roms, but I have a little problem. On a fresh installation, if I reboot, I get a message telling me I may loose some apps that are on memory... True, I lost some after a reboot...
I made a fresh installation with darktremour apps2sd to be able to install more apps on the sd, but when I reboot, I also loose some apps that were on my sd card, so it's not only the internal memory apps that are affect.
So I just want to know if I'm the only one whit this problem and if I can do something to resolve this.
Thanks a lot
I think you are getting confused,it says that to all of us on reboot as it states
"Restarting your phone will clear temporary files out of memory"
This isnt apps it IS cached files,different memory to internal or external memory
Thanks, I'll take a look at it tomorrow with a fresh install. I'm sure that I lost some apps last time, but it may be my mistake. If you are right, everything would be perfect for me than!

What EXT are you using? im on EXT2 with no probs
Well you were right, I reinstalled the beta4 and everything is fine. I don't know what happened last time, but I really had to reinstall some apps after a reboot. So... strange thing and I'm feeling a bit akward now
Thanks for the time you took and sorry for the question!
No worries, Glad to help!
Hi all.
First of all, I apologize if my post already exist.
I have a prob with my sd card that can't be recognized with the achtojan ROM downloaded from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151933.
My sd card is configured to be using with link2sd (2 partitions, one with FAT32 that have almost all my datas and applications saved in it , and the other in ext2).
The question is, what can I do to make my sd card recognized with both FAT32 and ext2 because I wanna to use link2sd again, whether with this ROM or with any other ROM having this prob.
Thanks for your precious help.

First of all nothing to do with development, second a few threads down is a simular topic if you had searched and 3rd why not take it to the Dev's thread of whose rom you are using, i am sure he not bite.

Thanks for reply, but, the prob in the post you suggested to me isn't the same. And I won't format my sd card, because I've a lot of things in it, and it will be a hard work to copy all in my pc, and before all, I wanna to use link2sd with the ROM I use, whether if it will be the achtojan ROM or any other.
Please, if there is something that can i do, let me so. Thanks.

Use mini tool data recovery this will repair your card without losing data, can be found here it's free for home users.
http://www.powerdatarecovery.com/
This might sound obvious but next time backup your sd card first before partitioning, even though it says it wont interfere with your data. I had the same problem but luckily i had a backup.
I think that you did not well understood my problem. The fact is that my sd card already works on another ROM without any issue, it has just to be detected with the ROM that I use at present, here it is.

Look buddy i gave you the link and the answer you are looking for in my first post to you, do some searching and reading, here is the post in that thread that solves your issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15824115&postcount=12
also it applies to the same rom you are using.
Look dude, I saw you that there are big big big differences between the problem in the post you suggested to me and my problem. First : I have in my sd card 2 partitions (one in FAT32 with lot of datas and the other one in EXT2 for use of link2sd) and the sd card have to be detected, but the poste have just a problem with formatting his sd card. Second : my sd card already work with another ROM with no issue, if I reflash to the other ROM, it will certainly work with no prob of detecting. Third : I wanna to rest with the ROM I've flashed actually (I mean Achtojan's ROM) and fixing this issue if somebody can help without formatting the sd. That's all.
Thanks for your tries to help, but it seems that you don't understood my request the first time, then you tryed with something useless in our case. Anyway, Thanks for your tries again.
Why don't you just copy all your data to your pc, delete your partition, restore your data and then use the rom you want, why have you issue in formatting your sdcard?

It is a known issue for ALL custom ROMs.
They actually mount the 2nd partition of the SD -if there are more than 1.
Being an ext2, it's not recognised by the system as storage space.
So if you want to use a custom ROM, Link2sd is a NO-GO.
You need to reformat your SD into a single FAT32 partition. That's the way it is.
Also, I have wrote this exact same post more than 10 times. So, the question has already been asked. Using Search is not always easy but it pays off eventually. Please make the effort next time.

This is a general problem in EVERY 2.2+ ROM for X10
My guess is that the new vold (known also as "vold2") that manages the storage devices is not properly configured.
My_Immortal and me were the ones who tried to find an actual cure for the root of the problem, but both of us ended up PMing the devs
Try to write a nice message to Zdzihu, Jerpelea or even DoomLord(that guy surely has some knowledge as well) and cross your fingers
Till it's not fixed try to stay on 2.1 as the new Gingerbread update is on its way... hopefully.
oops, someone was faster than me... or I was just polite to let the girls be the first
i will again say what everyone else has said before.
link2sd has problems with custom rom's so far.
check my sig for details on how you can have multiple partitions and still get your card detected in custom ROMs
however basic problem is X10 checks the last partition (should be vfat) mounts it as /sdcard
link2sd takes /sdcard partition number and add's a 1 to it to get ext2 partition. (which could not exist)
on top of that xrec will take first partition as /sdcard when you boot to sdcard.
so thats a mess as of now.
i tried vold and other stuff also all in vain even tried contacting the dev behind link2sd asknig him to add a option to select partion but no reply so far.
hope this helps in solving your query.
In the droid forums, there are a thread that speak about this problem too, and many people searching solution managed something to make sd card detecting, but I am not very advanced in the subject, thus I cannot say about it more. Maybe that some of you who know a little more in the subject can find something useful for us there.
The thread in question is here :

thanks for the link
quick check suggests some modification at rom or ramdisk level might solve issue.
lets not jump to conclusion. if i do get some time off work this weekend , i will try and see what exactly is going on and can give you a response on that.

even a "patch" in hw_config.sh file should do the trick... but i am not 100% sure

ohk sorry to OP first i am hijacking this thread
@Doom, just thinking out loud.
I don't have required tools till next 3-4 hrs
i just need to check how link2sd is mapping (once again last exercise was month back so forgot all of it.)
we can see what volume label he is using to mount the partition and can use hw_config.sh or a new file say /system/etc/init.d/99sd_ext2.sh just about anyname till it has 99 in front making it last item to run.
and add code to mount the partition we want to be mounted in our predefined location that should make it work.
Hope that can work. but will need to check and same as i did last time i will again have to go 3 partitions way.

No problem mate, take your ease. It can help a lot of people.
I've read little in the thread, but as I said it, I am not really very advanced in the subject, and I can make nothing . I can just say to you that with a buddy and the help of this subject, and after a lot of tries, we were able to make his sd card detectable on his phone (an HTC mytouch 3G slide), but I don't rememeber what we have done, and the solution was just temporary. In rebooting the phone, it was necessary to do all again from the beginning, which we were not able to make due to our limited knowledge .
As now, I hope that you or any other person can make anything useful for all people around here.
Thanks for your efforts.
PS : I've temporary returned to EWJET ROM that is already configured for use with a sd card parted. Maybe Erickwill can help too. Good Luck.
ohk a quick check
if something is mounted on /data/sdext2 then link2sd thinks it has found the second partition
what i did was
1) created a temporary img file 100 MB
2) did a loopmount of img file on /data/sdext2 folder
3) link2sd working.
(I know i am lazy i don't want to format my card just wanted to help all as much as i can.)
now this was test so what we are missing here
1) we need a way to automatically mount a pertition on /data/sdext2
2) we will still need 3 partition on sdcard as my last experiment was to check the same and we if want to use ext2 we need
vfat-ext2-vfat to the minimum.
last being your sdcard
first being your recovery sdcard
and ext2 partition used by link2sd
3) tried hw_config.sh as suggested by DooMLorD
even checked /system/etc/init.d/
they all seem to be executing well before sdcard gets mounted or not at all.
so this is where i am stuck and right now out of time need to focus on other tasks.
hope someone can find a way around to this.
NOTE : EWJET ROM are 2.1 rom if i am not wrong. 2.1 roms do support link2sd as of now its basically the problem of 2.2 roms.
I will try your method with the three partition, but I have a question, how to make the third partition detected in windows for copying all my datas in it.
The method with three partitions don't work too. I'm really confused now.

Hi
please use a more meaningful thread name.
To your problem:
Try the SD on any computer etc. you can find.
If it won't be recognized you won't be able to recover it anyway.
Sorry for the lost pictures, but you should
make backups from time to time

Hi Guys,
Anyone can help, i messed up my I9300 sdcard, i tried everything i know
- Tried to re-partetion using .pit file and ODIN 3.07
- Tried to flash the stock rom "it works but the device keep restart and freeze"
i guess the issue is that my internal sdcard is not well partitioned now cause a softer reading the device information telling that my rom is 11.8 gb and my sdcard 11.8gb as well.
also, when i plug it to my PC, it can't read the sd card, also it takes like 45-60 seconds to boot.
Please help, i'm dyeing
Thanks in advance.
Please don't die for this...
User available memory is really only 11.8..the rest of it is reserved for the system

Hello, I was wondering if anyone can help me out.
I'll start up by saying I know nothing about phones or programming so I'd appreciate your inputs if you have the patience to teach a laic
I bought Xiaomi Redmi3 and I'm so far very happy with the phone.
The only thing is I'd like to move some apps to my SD card since the phone only has 16GB.
I read somewhere that since the phone has multilanguage ROM it already has root. It comes with an app called "SuperSU".
Does this mean I can move stuff to the SD card somehow and not break the warranty of the phone?
Is there any way to move stuff to the external storage without rooting the phone?
Thank you so much!
same problem here

Hi, i recentely have tried to solve this problem. As far as i know miui doesn't support any kind of app on the SD.
However, with a rooted phone, i tried to use App2sd.
To use it i had to partition my 32 gb sd, with a first Fat32 partition (almost 20 gb), a Ext3 partition (almost 10gb), and a swap area (almost 2 gb).
App2sd used the second partition, the Ext3 one, to move apps in there.
Everything worked flawlessly, but when i rebooted the phone the MIUI didn't load the second partition (so App2sd said) and so i lost every app i moved in there, without being able to reinstall them (i recieved an error from the playstore).
Surely there may be a solution to the problem through the use of the app, however i'm not good enough to find it, and so i reflashed the miui and rolled back to the previous situation.
