[Q] Installing custom ROMs - LG Optimus L9 P760, P765, P768, P769

I was able to successfully root my fiance's l769 thanks to user captaincrook's thread about a method brought about by, i believe, user jcase. My question is, will I still have to use the method in d33ps1x's tutorial for using link2sd if i flash a custom rom??
captaincrook - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338816 this worked amazing for rooting if anyone still needs to root. I used it for a T-mobile and it was super succesful and was rootchecker verified.
d33ps1x - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1432459 i actually used this method and it appeared to work great by partitioning a portion of the external sd to ext2 format. i'm not really sure if i should have used ext2, ex4 or fat32 but i went with ext2 and it seemed to work out alright. i was able to swing something like 40 apps/the data from the apps over without too many problems (the sd card got a little soggy recenty so it's been acting finicky so we removed the partition and reformatted back to a primary fat32.
but...would i still have to use that method if i flashed a custom rom like cm10.1 or miui or aokp?

First, flashing custom roms require unlocking the bootloader. And you dont need that method to flash roms? Where'd you get that from...

Yes it can, i think v21b wind Mobile has the ability to move apps to sd... But i think you need a script for it. Heres a 3in1 guide about storage... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2096138

[UNLOCKED ONLY] CWM 5.5.0.4 For Photon/Electrify

Everything seems to be working good except the small bug listed below. It is stock CWM and I haven't changed anything, just built it for our phones. Not sure what's up with the background as I haven't added anything?
Will flash CM9 without issues! I haven't had any flashing issues at all actually...
The .zip is CWM flashable, no fastboot needed. Enjoy!
Bugs-
Internal SD won't mount in usb storage mode.
(can still flash from internal)
Dropbox(Go easy)- http://db.tt/GvNBGK29
Mediafire- http://www.mediafire.com/?qzemoy3t86v761i
MD5- b819dcb34b48e97b3f9e2a7e6d665d0a
so im assuming this is the touch enabled version?
Flashed, its not the touch version. but everything looks to be in working order.
Only for cm7 and cm9?
or custom roms too?

Flashed jokercomplete, booted then flashed back to Initiative with no issues. The background image is nice. The menu disappears during flashing and the progress bar is hard to see (very thin and low contrast) which may make some people nervous.
I'll add it to the compendium and update the root-unlock-relock zip in the next day or so. Thanks yepitsme19.
Found a possible bug.Internal storage doesn't show up on windows computer when mounting "usb storage". Could somebody verify.
flashed on photon, works fine. I'll write if something is wrong.

This should be a tad more specific. This is just an sdswap script. I got really excited thinking this script would allow us to install apps 2 the sd.

I'm not debating the ability of the script to allow apps to be installed to the sd card, but you are really just swapping the external/internal memory. Go to the Q&A and there are quite a few threads on this, both on the advantages and disadvantages. There seems to be quite a few compatibility issues once 4.2 comes around and there have been a few issues regarding utilizing this method.
I'm just saying you should've said SD swap script or explained in the OP what this script does. It isn't as simple as you can install the apps to the SD. You can install apps the the sd, but it accomplishes this by switching the external out for the internal.
Re: {Guide}How to Use you SD Card for internal Apps
Beans' ROM has sdswap included if a person wants it.
But yeah I posted a thread quite sometime back about the video. With Perseus kernel it even gets trickier.....but not with beans it doesn't. That guy is a genius.

The main problem with this script is at times it takes up to a minute after the phone has started for it to "kick in" (observable by looking at the Storage tab).
Does anyone know a way where we could prioritize this script so that it happens faster?
It worked fine for me, didnt take that long to take effect, but I prefer the new metod now. Much better I think

Hello! New to the note2 coming from a nexus. The 1st night I spent unlocking rooting and setting up phone how I like it but just like everybody else I ran into the Sd issue. 1st I tried the method that op recommended but the app had problems and it suked having to do everything manually. So than I tried this method and could not get it to work! I thought I knew what ( change permissions too 777 was? Does this mean the r-rw stuff? And is this the mod that beans 7 rom uses?
Please!! if someone can be kind and help with this questions I never had to deal with this Sd problems in the past.

If you look in the S3 forums you'll find zips that you can flash for the sd swap. They have four different files depending on exFAT, FAT32, stock kernel, or custom kernel. Make sure that you flash the correct one.

It used to work flawlessly for me but all of a sudden it stopped working.
Will elaborate more when on my computer.
So the s3 zips will work for note 2? I just downloaded a zip that works with exfat & fat32 but won't try just yet

[Q] External/Internal SD Swap on JB?

Hi,
I've updated to JB, kept my root etc., and now the only thing that is missing for me is the ext/internal SD swap. I tried both the SManager script version and the vold.fstab version, but I don't get it to work.
It's like I can do anything (both int and ext point towards external, both int and ext point towards internal, both are acting "normally") except what I want :/
Is there anyone who can try to make this work? I'd do it myself, but looks like I'm too nooby for it.
Thanks

Not possible. You have to use Odin3 to install a custom recovery, then flash SU or a rooted ROM. No apps in the market work for us.

Like the guy above me mentioned you have to have a PC. Use someone else's for about 10-15mins, Install CWM and then Super User. If you want to flash anything else besides those just make sure you transfer them to your external SD card or internal while your using that computer. Hope that helped a little. Still kind of new to this all.
^^^^ good advice.

Put your Micro SD in your PC and !back your Micro SD card up!, install Acronis Disk Director and format your Micro SD from exFAT to FAT32.
You will lose all your data on your micro sd card if you format it. Back it up!
CUSTOM ROMS ONLY SUPPORT FAT32.
IT DOESNT SUPPORT exFAT.

Also it could be due to a bug in the rom. Try reflashing the rom if the method mentioned by the poster above me doesn't work.
