Hi,
I am using CM9 beta 8 by maclaw and team with a 32gb ext card formatted as follows using CWM 5
4gb sd-ext
1gb swap.
I also am using the d2sd script by ungaze.
I have about 500mb worth of files in sd-ext.
Sometimes when my phone is on for too long or when i open and close too many apps it will reboot randomly, and if i decide to turn it off, wipe cache and dalvik, it will just boot to a black screen and even after 2 hours its not booting..
Can anyone help me?
EDIT:i found out that the cam wipe dalvik removes the link to the dalvik as well, so when the kernel boots it loads the dalvik from the preset location in the NAND, and when it cannot find it, (due to the init.rc not running to link it, init.rc loads AFTER this process), it will not boot.
I had to do a nandroid restore and used adb to manually cd into the dalvik-cache and rm * then it finally booted.
But sometimes even after clearing the dalvik, the phone will reboot randomly into the CM screen and back again.
Any ideas?

On a fresh AOKP installation (r31) I performed a restart then the tablet freezes during boot animation. Tried to reboot it multiple times - same result. I wanted to wipe everything and restart but I cannot format /data partition in recovery: it will stay on "Formatting /data ..." for 2-3 minutes and then will reboot :-(
Any idea?
I suspect something in the data partition is corrupted, may be the partition table. Is there a chance to re-create the partition table?
Thanks.
Problem solved:
Using Odin I flashed the stock recovery then wipe data/factory reset.
Flashed back CWM 4.0.0.4, performed /data format
Flashed CWM 5.5.0.4 installed rom, rebooted, wipe data, format data, format system, adb push aokp rom, flashed AOKP. I lost my sdcard data but now the system is working.
I think we can close this topic.
EDIT: Now also CWM5 Backup availble too (possible to extract data.img?)
Hello everyone..
I was playing a Jetpack Joyride on CM10 Vsync builds by MCM + Dorimanx 7.1 with OC,uV and more.
Then it freezed and it can't be turned off be holding power for 10 seconds (or 7)
Now it can't boot.. tried to reinstall the just /system-- doesn't worked
formatted just /cache and dalvik too.. didn't helped. did a nandroid then wipe factory and it booted..
I have important data in browser like a passwords,history,saved pages and more. Is there any way to repair the /data partition to make it boot? or atleast take contacts and browser data to pc,, reinstall and push them back to freshly created /data?
I have backed up a corrupted /data partition with CWM6 before wiping data
I don't talk about developers of my combo.. its my fault that i didn't backed it before

Hey friends,
I Flashed again gingerdx31b(mimmi) after creating a ext partition through CWM and I activated the DC2SD after that I install couple of apps and rebooted my phone and suddenly FC errors are pop up and only black screen, I did it again wiping all but it still happens so I decided to Flash again wiping all active A2SD and there are no errors with it.
Can some one help me to activate DC2SD without that errors! I need it because I saw some one telling its save more system memory more than A2SD!

#Ap2sd moves installed apps from data partition to sdcard & data partition is located at root/data
#Dc2sd moves dalvik-cache from data partition to sdcard & dalvik is located at root/data/dalvik-cache*
#system partition is where rom installs & it's located at root/system
1-data partition size is ~200 mb
2-data partition is not using system partition(they are separated)
3-dalvik-cache uses at MAX 30 mb of your data partition
4-dc2sd makes phone,app start-ups slower... phone will be less responsible & strange fc errors appear ...
5-it's better to wipe cache instead of moving dalvik to sd
6- use android's native app2sd (no partitions needed, move from settings /app manager / tap on any app & press on "move to sdcard " option)
*not 100% sure about info

Hi
Perhaps this is an unusual question: can be dalvik cache be manually built without rebooting?
I explain:
I have a "critical" link2sd usage (many more apps linked respect to internal memory capacity).
I have some problems with my terminal, which is unstable (sometimes freezes after boot, see this thread); due to this I safety boot without SD inserted; then I insert SD, in link2sd i relink app files, it does correctly, but apps obviously still do not work due to dalvik cache is not built (but symlinks are present).
Just to try, which is the command that makes dalvik cache building at boot, and after an apk installation(something like dexopt...)?
Can I try to apply it when device is in use?
If I reboot when I suffer this instability problems both /data partition could be filled by .dex files and the device could freeze after boot.
Thanks (and tell me if this is bull****)
Hello!
For some reason I am having some major trouble when I'm trying to install UltimaAOSP v1.1.1 [Valhalla] on my i9300. I have been running UltimaRom v15 for a long time now, but it has been acting up lately (the photo sphere function in the camera crashes every time it's launched and the "system UI" crashes when i try to enable the GPS), so I decided to try out UltimaAOSP.
I have followed the install instructions exactly, wipe data/factory reset and unmount cache. I have tried with and without installing GApps.
PROBLEM: When i restart the phone I can barely get past the sim password screen before stuff starts crashing (contextprovider, phone and one more that i can't remember), and It just keeps crashing over and over so I can't really do anything. When It's left alone for 30 seconds or so it restarts the phone and everything starts crashing again.
"Extra" stuff i have tried:
- Wiping cache partition
- Clearing dalvik cache
- Moving the .zip-file to the internal sd card and external sd card
- Installing V1.1, got exactly the same error(s)
I am currently using CWM 6.0.4.6
Please help? This Is driving me nuts!

Try a full wipe format in mounts and storage format the following: format/system, format/cache, format /preload, format /data, warning this will leave you without any rom so make sure you have one ready to flash on your Ext SD.
Because you are not fully wiping it is leaving files behind which interferer with your new installation (short explanation)
Also I would recommend Philz recovery which does all this for you (it as a option to wipe to install a new rom) :good:
