Dear All,
I want to remove / completely disable APP2SD inside custom ROM that made base on CM7 or CM6.
this is CM'APP2SD not regular app2sd. yes, its mean "CyanogenMod's apps2SD"
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Apps2SD
I have search the forum, including forum outside XDA, take me approx. 1 hours a day and almost 2 weeks and still can NOT find any clue or instruction to remove it.
If "maybe" I missed and somebody already asked and answered? my apologize.
I want to use Link2SD only, coz link2sd have more manageable option in the way to move apps to sdcard.
So i can decide which apps that still fully stay internal and apps several time used which i decide only app (not dalvik) put in sdcard and rarely used fully store in external/sdcard
App2SD can not do like this
So, Please Kindly help me
thanks n brgds
Try to delete it via Root Explorer.
Well u can still leave it on your phone.Just assign all aplications to be installed on your internal storage.
I'm going to give a quick run down of my situation and what I have done and I would just like to get some understanding or guide to what the heck I'm doing different then everyone else.. and I have lots of knowledge in technology and I'v been playing around with phones for 14 years now.. So here's the deal.
I have 2 Sony Xperia X10a. - one from Rogers the other from Fido.. Who give's a crap.. OK next.
I flashed both phones with FlashTool 3.0.0 -
Rom - X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.ftf
Root IT / Reboot
Xrecovery Install. - I select the first one , so the one w/out GB in the name.
Copy Files to SD Card for GB Flash..Files I copy are..
" X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "
" ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "
I also have a folder "Addons" that I have a couple things like.. " SEMC.Calculator.zip & "SEMC.Gmail.Gtalk.Email.zip" ..so on..
I then Reboot the phone into Xrecovery...
1 - Wipe user data
2 - clear cache
3 - advanced options - clear cache again..
4 - Install Custom Zip....Select " X10x.3.0.1.G.0.75.EWJET.xKernel.GB.x2.3ex.zip "... Done
5 - Reboot Via XRecovery and Remove battery Instantly
6 - Flash via FlashTool - X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_only kernel_baseband.ftf
7 - Unplug / Remove battery . Wait 10 Seconds.. Boot phone.
8 - Phones Booted.. My SD Card already was in 2 FAT32 Partitions. One 14GB one 1GB..
9 - Proceed to Link2SD App..Start it.. Reboot Phone..
10- Selected and Linked Apps in Link2SD .. Rebooted Phone..
11 - Started Link2SD ...go to " More " .. Selected link dalvik-cache files... Rebooted Phone
12 - Used File Explorer .. went to SDCard.. if there is a Scriptz folder Delete it.. there was no scriptz folder..
13 - Rebooted Phone.. Enter in Xrecovery mode.. Advanced options .. "Wipe dalvik cache"
14 - Install Custom Zip..Select " ewX.xKernel.gb.X3.1f.zip "... Done...
15 - Rebooted Via Xrecovery
16 - Started Link2SD... go to " More " .. Select "Link dalvik-cache files" again and then "Market Fix"
17 - Rebooted Phone again.
18 - Used phone.. Setup Google Accounts / Email / Facebook / A few apps / synced picasa photos... Rebooted
Done Install..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19 - Ran Quadrant Standard Benchmark .. Free From Market.. Only Scored 850
20 - Rebooted.. and then Installed SetCPU.. Few $ from Market....When I started SetCPU I selected " Show Other Frequency Sets " and Selected
Custom Frequency Reads from:
/sdcard/setcpu.txt
/system/sd/setcpu.txt
/data/local/setcpu
Sort Speeds in kHz, Separated by comma, from lowest to highest.
21 - Allowed Root Access.. and I did not Touch one setting in SetCPU. I went to advanced and selected "Apply"
22 - I then went to INFO in SetCPU .. If I run a Short Bench.. I score between 220 - 250.. avg sometimes it spikes.. Long Bench is 519..
23 - Rebooted .. Ran Quadrant again I am only scoring max 1080ish.. Lowest I have seen is 800.. It is all over the place.. and no where close to 1750 that erik is getting..
24 - I also Ran LINPACK and my max on a single thread was 38 .. and on multi-thread it was 32...
I don't understand What I am missing or doing wrong.. Maybe I have spent too much time on it in the past few days flashing and re flashing and yada yada that i'm just in need of a good break and then go back at it.. but my roomie who has the other X10 that I converted her to from the Iphone is also doing the same where it's not scoring to great..
I also am running into issues on her phone where it's having lots of force closes and freezing....I was just doing a quad benchmark on it now and it only scored 600??? I did the exact same.. back to flashing 2.1.. all the exact steps I have taken on my phone.. the only difference is she only has a 2gb sd card so I have not installed Link2SD on her phone.. But I have been told that should not make too much of a difference.. have i been mislead? Please assist. I am VERY lost and starting to get cheesed .. I just want what Erick has LOL But Really I converted her from Apple to Droid because she used my phone when I had one of Erick's first GB Roms and it was running fast.. she was very impressed and happy..
.. OK As I was typing this out I'm playing around with the phones and I just got a new msg on BOTH phones remember one is Link2SD one is Not.. " Could not read SetCPU Custom Config. Reverting to Defaults. Is your SDCard unmounted from the PC? .. Both phones are not plugged in .. I did a remount in storage settings.. Same error.. But If I do a device selection again.. it reads the SD Card SetCPU.txt files.. WOW . I am so confused. PLEASE ASSIST!!!!
I really hope there is enough information here.. ask me for anything or to do anything on it and i'll send it and give it a shot ! Thanks in advanced everyone! and thanks again Erick for the sick ROM!
Wow.. Another Patch! Updating to 3.3f.zip.. Will report back if any change in performance! no change.. now I just have the Sony Setup Menu start everytime my phone boots.. if i clear advanced cache in xrecovery all my sync accounts get deleted.. and I also had to downgrade my market because it was just crashing.. I also have problems with swype .. it keeps crashing in chomp.l never had problems like that until 3.3f update. ... thou I just talked to Janessa and she said her phone is groovy like the 70's.. LOL I don't understand.. She was having the problems...now I am! LOL Let's get some input going! Thanks again Everyone! AKA ERICKWILL!!
Thanks again erick!!
bump?

Hey man, don't bother with scores and numbers.
Flash the patch, let it settle for some hours and use it.
I just flashed the new 3.7 patch few minutes ago and waiting for it to settle.
I didn't read the EDIT.
My x10i got really slow booting and annoying when It gets too low space in sdcard.
Take a look at her sdcard.
For the FC's, I often have them when I flash a new patch. After I done everything in link2sd (relink, reboot, etc), I reboot again and fix permissions at xrecovery. Them I reinstall all apps that are FC using the link2sd interface.
As I said, I just patched to 3.7f and got two FC at launcher startup. This time was App Brain Market and Battery Widget Pro. Reinstalled them using the option "reinstall" inside link2sd and everything is OK now.
Yesterday I patched to 3.3 and got a different FC from today. Total Recall was FC at startup, them I went to link2sd and reinstalled it. It's working fine since them.
any error flashing the 3.7f patch? mine says error at line 12
I had no erros here.
My x10 was running the lastest rom with 3.3f.
Deleted scriptz folder, rebooted, cleaned dalvik cache and flashed.
Booted, went to link2sd, reboot again for mount the 2nd partition.
Booted again, link2sd, relinked dalvik, reboot.
Fixed permissions, reboot. Reinstalled 2 apps that were fc and its stable for now.
i cannot find the scriptz folder on my sdcard? ??!
Which file explorer are you using? I think if you can't see it's because it doesn't exist.
To be sure, connect your phone using USB cable and enable USB mounting to access sdcard from your PC. If you still can't see this way, it surely does not exist in your sdcard.
Go to xrecovery, wipe dalvik cache and flash the patch.
no error.. mm if u did I think u need to start all over from 2.1 again..
ok trying to flash 2.1 again.. still cant see it through my pc.. tnxx
still a fail T_T... there is still no scriptz folder.. and still with the same error flashing 3.7f patch woo

Get all the files you need for the 2.1 flash and the baseband fix if you need for 2.1 flash from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 .. the links are in the first post. and one again also remember to use the "Flash" button in flashtool to flash the TFT files. there is no other way to do this but I am just assuming maybe you are flashing custom zips via xrecovery...I hope this helps.. I'm going to have time this week to do a remake of the video on Ericks Firmware install.. It's ok but it's assuming to much little steps.
I planning to move to UL bootloader + Doomkernel + WBV7b6 ROM.
Also With almost few months into WBV7 , the phone is quite sluggish due to apps, So i want to use Link2SD to freeup some space (internal memory) so that the phone is little faster , So will Link2SD be compatible with above said config ?
More over can anyone give a pathway from my current config to above said one.. ie what should i do first ? UL the bootloader first ? or flash the kernel ?
I have downloaded flastool (113MB) and Unlocked Bootloader Doomlord WBV7b6 ROM (85MB) so far , so just waiting for someone to guide me on how to proceed. Also WB said I need to download Doomlords Kernel for unlocked Bootloader , but there are 3 different kernels , which one do you guys think is good ? or stable ?
I downloaded the full overclock version, then with something like SetCPU you can change the frequencies to suit your phone. Mine kept rebooting at the full overlock but was happy at a notch down.
Don't forget to download the wifi module to your phone and flash it from xrecovery.

Thanks , but how to proceed from my current config ? what should i do first ?
hi naveen,
first step would be to unlock boot loader. search for "bootloader bypass proper x10" to see how this is done. there is more than one way.
then flash doom kernel and the correct baseband
then install the ROM.

Thanks , the latest Flashtool has option to ULBL , shall i use it ?also just by ULBL will the phone work ?
then flash doom kernel and the correct baseband

I am on .71 baseband. Should i have to restart after this , or after ULBL ?
Can anyone tell me how in detail , like restarting the phone , etc etc
Unlocked the BL and installed the WB ULBLdoom ROM via Xrecovery and then pulled out the battery and flashed the Doomkernel via flashtool , now the phone starts , but hangs at doomkernel loadpage
What version of doomkernel did you use? use the failsafe version and see if it boots.
Dont know , restarted a few times , then restarted again with FLASHTOOL running , and fortunetly it booted.. blazing fast now , but its all because of more internal ram available .
@cr4zypo3t
How to install link2SD ? does it have any bug or issues ? . Last time the phone came to a crawl due to too much of apps running from internal memory , ie why i want o move them to SD .. please can you help me on that.
open Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, there some applications will have the option to "move to SD card". This is native.
i don't use links2sd. Links2sd can work but there is hot-fix you have to apply. This is mentioned in Wolfbreak's thread (additional downloads or somewhere). Also, i don't think moving applications to SD card will help in the way you have described. You may see improvement if you remove unnecessary system apps though.
does apps 2 sd (market app) will help me ? Also some say that i need to partition something, to use links2sd , is it so , or just use the hotfix given by WB and straightaway use links2sd ?
I want to remove FB , apps and games app , twitter , timescape , infinite viewer from WB ROM , how to do it ?
Thanks a lot for replying cr4zypo3t
I restarted to install links2sd , but again hangs on DL boot screen , also how to enter into xrec or is it replaced with CWM ?
Oh yes. I forgot, you need to partition your SD card to use links2sd. The second partition must be ext2, and you will have to completely format the SD card while partitioning(i.e will lose data on the card). The hot-fix is also required. In my opinion Links2SD can be avoided by moving the app to SD card as I had described earlier.
To remove the apps install ES file explorer(free app) or root explorer(paid app) and in their respective settings mount /system as R/W. You can find the system apps in /system/app/. You can simply delete them. Be sure to make back-up in case something goes wrong. There is a thread on this forum that lists which all apps are safe to remove. Find it using search function.
Other option is using flashtool. It has a 'clean' option that can be used to (reversibly) remove system apps. Once you get to the list of system apps, use ctrl-click to select multiple system apps and press clean. It may get stuck on some apps so pull the phone and don't select that app next time. It will reboot the phone once it has removed all the apps. It stores them on you pc before deleting them, so even if you accidentally remove a required app, you can put back.
To enter xrecovery press the back button when you see blue LED upon booting. You can enter CWM/doom's CWM by pressing vol. up or vol. down keys.
When it is stuck on DL logo, is the LED glowing white?If not just reflash wolfbreaks ROM.

No just moved them , and it worked , but what is the difference between this normal moving and links2sd ?

Was using back button when the DL logo logo was flashing and eventually nothing happened , then found that , we need to press either of those keys only during the blue light

Well it did glow white sometimes , but i asked this on WB thread and a member adviced me to install Medium OC`s DL kernel + wifi module , and after flashing it , now its working fine.
BTW can you help me on this ?
Thanks a lot for the replies .. also , is there a way to change the default dialer , i mean , i use Ex Dialer (MIUI based) , but when i call , it send it to the default dialer which kind of sucks.
Also is there a way to disable , "Data Traffic- data traffic is disabled" notification ? It kind of bugs me

Thanks a lot for the replies cr4zypo3t
I am glad i could help.
by just moving them you cannot access these apps when the sd card is mounted. since links2sd uses a separate partition, you can use the apps even when sd card is mounted.
yes, the freeze option is simpler
I don't know about either of those things.

Hi , i present you this flashable tool to make change easy on the MM+Kang rom (v2.1 to v3.0)
Root : clean the rom and install superSU, to unroot just use superSU option (for MM+Kang 2.1)
since MM+K 3.0 , just unroot with superSU.
Xposed : check will install framework and app , uncheck will hide Xposed and delete app.
the advantage with this method is that you don't have to wipe dalvik cache , and wait 10 mn to reboot ...
Link and use Link2SD or Apps2SD :
Check "Install Script Fast Rebbot" will install necessary script for adding automatic fast reboot to mount second SD ext partition (EXT4)
on /data , usefull for link2SD or Apps2SD to see what you get linked.
Uncheck will delete these script and install another one to mount SD ext partition, but link2SD or Apps2SD will not work as well.
- If you want to use Fast Reboot option , select only one app to manage your apps.
Cleanning :
- Each time you reboot ,use some apps , play with your phone , use gps etc ... system write new logs on data partition.
it mean that after long time, it can get very big , i recommend to run this every week.
3rdmodem :
After update to B380 using the full rom zip file flashed by TWRP on MM+Kang v2.5 (i was very suprise that it worked)
I see that my 3rd modem was 0 octets , and not formated ... but every things was working well.
but it bring me a error message with TWRP who tell "can't mound 3rdmodem" etc ...
So i decide to do a script to format it to ext4 , with nothing inside , or bring back the 3rdmodem B370.
If you don't have any problem , just don't flash anything.
Camera Toldo :
Check it will install 100% jpg no compression by Toldo ( big files nice pictures )
Uncheck it will install "stock compression" files from B380 rom.
Have Fun

Hey! I am troubling a problem now.
Recently I was factory reset my phone and With TWRP recovery tool, I wiped my full system including the internal storage and then I installed New MIUI ROM V9.2.5.0 on my XIAOMI Redmi 4x.
---------
After installing this ROM on my device I saw that There are only 2 folders(Android + TWRP ) and 1 file(the ROM zip file).
>If I want to create a new folder, it shows "couldn't create folder".
>And also it doesn't allow me to delete the ROM zip file.
>If I want to take a picture then It shows Insert Sd Card before using the camera.
>It doesn't allow me to download files from browser also.
.
But I can still download and install apps from play store without facing any problem.
Note: I used ES file explorer, but the problem occurs also.
.
So, How can I get rid of this problem ??? I want to access(read/write) my internal storage. Please help me.
