Link2sd alternative - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I have read somewhere and also experienced that performance of the phone decreases when we use link2sd... Is there a similar alternative cz I have loadss of apps and internal storage is not enough!
But the sudden lags even on apps stored on internal memory are dissapointing...
Thanks!

that should be in Q&A forum
and no there isn't ,Link2SD is the best i have experienced ,with overclocking there's no lag

dont use link2sd just use IN2EXT4+ here:

no apps needed. Just a kernel that supports ext4

Link2SD is more versatile and fast!

Link2SD is more versatile and is fast, Link2SD has a good graphical interface and works with ext2, ext3 and ext4 partitions formats, also, you have the choice not to move an app if your want and so on. It only makes slow when copying files to the SD Card there's no way around this as SD cards are normally slower that internal memory, you could buy a class 10 card or bigger for better performance.

CronMod IN2EXT4+ often gives bootloop for me on Hasa MIUI. I can recommend a Mounts2SD app by SpazeDog:

Hi
which slow performance do you experience with link2sd?
Lags, slow opening apps, what?

no issues at all. Just flash it AFTER FLASHING ROM and set permissions of script to 755. Dont forget to wipe sd-ext after flashing the script

You can use Titanium Backup on ur rooted phone and can easily move apps to SD. No issues for me so far.

Done. Twice. Problem Still persists, although the partitioning was done by cwm 5.0.2.6, so imma try on the official one again
Yup, I have problems too with a2sd. My ext4 partition on SD corrupt and because ext4 inherited ext2 so fsck take a long time to recover.
I wish somebody add more fs support like jffs or another journaling fs that suitable to android.

You can use titanium backup to backup all your apps.
A2SDGUI stats are most of the time wrong so you don't have to bother.
then where i want to save the backup file? in sd card?
when i want setup pertition using rom manager warning massage come out
"wipe all data on your sdcard"
yes that will be save in sdcard then make a backup in your pc..you need titanium backup apk later..
doesn't you filesystem in ext4 yet?
i dont know what status of my sdcard yet....
did you mean this backup save all my picture and my mp3?
can i back up using samsung kies?
i realy need your guide....i dont wan to lose all my data Y_Y
nope titanium bakup will backup your applications amd data..
your using CM7 by BehradGH? so it already has ext4 filesystem..
what purpose do you want to use A2SDGUI?
i wan to create swap to support my Ram....
you know how to do that?
so what are the highlighted items in your A2SDGUI first tab?
Are your applications already running in sd-ext?
1st : "apps are on sd!"
2nd : "Dalvik cache on internal memory"
i tried to move this to sd but system said not enought memory

Yes it is possible.
U said u wanted to kno how to partition sd? So here it is.
First, connect ur fone to pc(not kies) & copy ur pics, apk's, videos, mp3's ete...etc...
Den download Mini partition tool on your pc. Install it.
After u finished copying ur stuff on d pc, format ur sd card. Nw open mini partition tool & make partitions in ur sd.
1st partition should b fat32, 2nd Ext4. Both primary. Apply changes.
Finished.

The CPU is not exactly a very powerful one. Swapping will slow down overall performance just so you can enjoy an artificially inflated RAM. Not worth it.

Sorry. I meant when were you a noob? Probably shouldn't ask. It's off topic, but we all have to start somewhere right?

[Q] Which Rom ??

Guys I Am Using Ics Stock v2 rom.
help me choose between ics stock v2 and CyanogenMod-7.2 by FAT kang..
Can Some one Please Tell Me Why Do i Get left with only 100mb internal mb with ics stock v2..??
thanks in advance guys..
ace rocks..!!
I'm on ics v2 and I have 90mb internal left. Its easier to just partition the sd card and use part of that for app storage through the link2sd app. There's a tutorial somewhere on here for it.

google should have helped you.
Meanwhile here is the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919326
Google is our friend, embrace the google . But yes the above link is perfect for what you need. If you create a second partition on your sd card of 1gb, you'll have that much space for apps . Just remember to backup your sd card first cos everything will be deleted when you partition it. Hope you get on well with it!

Everytime you must wait few hours, someone reply everytime... You must be more endurancefull
But, for a reply:
1.) Nothing, on 2.3.3 ROM it doesnt make any sense, because apps on sd are supported natively by OS.
2.) Not neccessary to explain, see 1.)
3.) link2sd is simply linking the app in phone memory to sd card, but app2sd moves the whole app onto sdcard. At the end both has same advantages - frees phone memory. But on some older OS, which didnt support app2sd was able to use link2sd instead.

[Need help]V6 SuperCharger makes Link2SD not working!

Hi! I've just used V6SC script for a few days and It's great. Everything is good except Link2SD. After install V6SC, Link2SD can't relink at boot. I tried uninstall V6SC and then Link2SD continous working at boot.
I'm using Gionne Pionner 3G with 2.3 OS (it almost likes Micromax A52).
If you can't help, could you quote my post to the V6SC development thread?
Thanks!
