Hello i have bought and phone and all apps are installed in external card.
But the folders of dalvik-cache and data/data have at least 100mb, and it results in some 10mb free in this partition, i need to instal more apps, and i receive a result that i didnt have space...
I was Atrix 4G owner, and didnt have this issue...
Please anybody a suggestion? I already installed all ...2SD apps and all apps are in SDCard...
Thanks guys!!

What is your new phone?Have you tried making a SD-EXT partition & move dalvik-cache to it?
How can i do that? I tried moving and link dalvik-cache to /sdcard but no result, it cant be linked in sdcard...

Try these steps
1. Make an ext3 partition of your desired size on your sd card using a pc partitioning tool called minitool and put it back in your phone.
2. Install an app called link2sd and launch it.
3. Select ext3 when the app asks for which type of partition the mount scripts need to be created.
4. Reboot the phone.
5. Again launch the app and this time if it shows the change log, the mount scripts are installed correctly.
6. Select the apps you want and create links. You can link the app as well as its dalvik cache.
7. You can even set the app to create links automatically when you install a new app.
8. All the linked apps will be in the sd ext3 partition and best thing is that widget apps too will work.
Hope this helps you.

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 all,
I have come to a conclusion that I need more suggestions than most posted threads that have similar issues. I am past the basic tests, but I am sure there are more options.
The issue: I cannot install any new APK's either from Google Play or even via ADB. I am getting the common "Insufficient storage available" error. I assume all installed files land in /data/app first which is on the internal storage. So I have attached some screenshots below that prove that everything should be working fine given there is a lot of free space left.
Also, other things I have done are:
- Wipe dalvik cache and /cache
- Fix Root permissions
- copy /system/xbin/busybox to /system/bin (cannot update busybox since I cannot install or overwrite due to this error)
- Check both /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/sdcard1 have enough space.
1- you should ask the moderator to move it to S3 Q&A
2- I've also encountered this kind of issue in the past. If you are using Philz recovery:
backup all files on sd + nandroid backup to sd1, do 'wipe to install a new rom', mount&storage->format system, format data and sdcard (it will delete your previous rom and all files on internal sd, so don't forget to copy a new one to your external sd, and be careful not to format sdcard1)
Now you can restore your nandroid backup (don't forget to copy backed-up files to sd afterwards) or to install a freash one

Hard to install any new APK's / apps since I get this message every single time.
Nothing worse than someone saying why don't you try... app; don't think they understand your dilemma. Can you install an. Apk from phone or ext men?
Can you install things if you remove your ext sd?
i just wanted to ask if it is possible to re-partition /system and /data partition .. i am thinking of pulling some of /system memory and add it to /data because my system has around 60mb+ more free memory which i can't use while my /data is only less than 20mb free and its irritating to see the low memory notification ..
or is it possible to pull some of /cache memory and add it to /data ?
thanks

Try using scripts like CronMod to increase you internal memory. All you need is a rooted phone and an SD Card with ext partition. You can create an ext partition from CWM (Advanced> Partition SD card> Size (maximum 1GB)>Cache (0MB)). Make sure to backup your SD card before you create the ext partition. Here is the link to the script,
Cronmod Unofficial / Data2sdext
Hope I Helped

i found CronMod a couple of days ago, well i tried Data2Ext .. when i installed it my phone was 80% more laggy, i don't know why .. but i kinda like it more since it shows the sd-ext partition on the app manager instead of the original device storage .. but still, i'll try cronmod
also, it says on the thread that the attached files are outdated, but the links on the post seems to be dead
also, i added facebook, facebook messenger, google play services, hangout, clean master and quickpic to the .zip of the rom so they would be pre-installed to the /system but still my device storage is only at 30~40% initial after flashing considering that the apps are installed in the /system partition
i also tried TouchWiz ROM, it's great but i haven't installed a single app yet but the /data partition seems to be 60% Loaded already ?? is there a remedy for it ? thanks
you helped me again, hit thanks :good:
by the way, will cronmod work with pre-installed apps ? i mean the system apps ?? will cronmod manage to move all of its Dalvik Cache and Data to SdExt ??

This is how CronMod works. It basically loads the /data to /sd-ext so that now /sd-ext contains all the data files. Now we mount the ext partition as the new /data mount point. Then all files in /sd-ext are moved back to /data. Since certain files like gps will not work when it is in ext partition, it is then moved back to /sd-ext. Then all the contents in /data and /sd-ext in binded so that any change in any of them is reflected to original. This is initialized every time at the boot. The reason CronMod lags is because the ext partition is loaded as the mount point for /data. Since SD card read/write operations are slower than internal memory read/write operation, /data operation will be slow. This is can be solved to a greater extend if you have a Class 8 or 10 SD card. BTW which verson did you install? If you installed CronMod by croniccorey then gps will not work. Go with CronMod Unofficial by Styke. Also this doesn't affect /system partition. Using this script will not increase the /system space. It will only increase the /data memory, so that you can install more apps and games.

Since this script moves the /data partition to your ext, none of the pre-installed apps are moved to ext partition. /system thereby system apps remains intact. I suggest you install apps like facebook, facebook messenger, google play services, hangout and clean master after you setup this script. Once you install an app as system app, it can never be moved to ext partition. Hope I Helped

i see, i think you didn't understood my question, sorry for that .. i mean, will the system applications cache and dalvik cache be linked to the sd-ext ?? .. nonetheless, i'll try again
but, do you happen to have a link to the latest versions ?? the latest version links are dead on the thread so i can't find a download link
thumbs up again for you mate, you help a lot
EDIT: also, will be SDHC be sufficient to aid the lag (even for a little ?) its a Class 10 32GB RIDATA MICRO SDHC

LOL I explained everything in detail thinking that you will understand. Long story short, CronMod script basically moves /data to ext partition. Since all the system and user application's dalvik cache is present in /data, Yes, it will be moved to ext. Nothing in /system will be moved to ext partition. All system apps are present at /system/app, so it can't be moved. User apps that you install goes to /data/app, so those will be moved. Also download the latest version from the "Attached Files" section in the same link. It works. Before you buy a new SD Card, try this in your current SD Card. See if it lags a lot. I might have an another solution. If that too doesn't work, you can buy a new SD Card. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Are you using any other data2ext scripts currently apart from CronMod? Usually installing CronMod on a device that already has a data2ext script will give this error. Make sure to delete all other data2ext scripts if present. Since you are stuck at boot screen, you will have to reflash the rom. Make sure to do Mounts and Storage>Format /system before flashing the new rom. There are two ways by which you can install CronMod. First one is by flashing the zip from CWM (in that case you have to mount /system before flashing). Second one is the easiest one. Just extract the CronMod zip file. You will get a file 40int2ext in /system/etc/init.d/. Now extract the rom that you are going to flash, put the file 40int2ext in /system/etc/init.d/ and then compress it back. Done! Now flash the rom and you are good to go. Try the second method. Make sure you have an ext partition and the rom has init.d support (all custom roms has init.d support). If that method doesn't work or devices lags like hell, then post here and I'll be glad to share the other method. Hope I Helped
First, english is not my native language, so mistakes can occur
i've installed bieltv.3's CM9 for my Ace-i and it looks great, very smooth. But there're 2 things i don't like.
- The dialer app can't call to anyone. The others only receive calls from my ace but i can't do anything: Try to stop the call, turn back to the launcher by pressing home button, etc
- The google play store always show error 491. I tried many solutions such as deleting and readding google account, clear cache, reinstall it. None works
That's all. And i only can say thanks to anyone who help me with this becuz i'm Vietnamese
CM9 will never be stable for daily use. Bieltv.3 stopped development of it. CM11 has the basic functions working, except the moderate lag it has.
There is a help section for this matter and KAGE is right , dump it in favor of either cm11 or cm7 roms for more stable environments . However some bugs are common among CM's though , due to the fact drivers never been published and other things .
For Google play error 491 have you done the following process , after deleting your Gmail account (delete the Google Play updates too, if you have on your system) :
settings>>Apps>>All> Force stop, Clear data and cache for Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager
Reboot your device and add you account ?
Second quick method was about clearing both cache and Dalvik cache through CWM ,, assuming you have done it correctly though .
Another solution which might work for your CyanogenMod 9.1 - BroadcomCM Beta 5 is a specific library and a binary was not included in the ROM ( fixed by Nightly Coder ) :
- Added libdrmframework_jni.so to /system/lib
- Added drmserver to /system/bin
Uninstall your old Google Apps package with the App Manager of the ES File Explorer ( i.e: GoogleApps_GearCM_CM9_20140711) and rest of the instruction from here and here ,, Follow them carefully to resolve your 491 error .
Hope i di help U and next time make your topic @ proper sub forum ( Help section not general part ).
I know and now I'm using cm11 now. It's not so smooth as cm9 and stock GB but it's still so cool. For now I only got 10.23mb left on /system partition because the cm11 was too heavy to put in with other flashable apps even GAPPS. Thanks u guys for advising me. Sorry for bad English

For your CM11 , you can get yourself some extra storage by implanting modified version of S2E script/app from this topic .
Here is the installation and guideline process for your convenience mate :
1. Download and install S2E
2 .Reboot in CWM recovery
3. Go to advanced>partition SD card>choose size (512mb or 1024mb)
4. After that choose ext 4 then choose 0mb as swap partition and continue
4. After this is done go to mount and storage and format sd-ext there
5. Reboot your device
6. Open up the S2E app you should see now that it will give you GUI or a menu and can choose 'Applications' and 'Dalvik cache' to send to you sd-ext
7. After doing all that reboot your phone and your done
Hope I did help You

Ok, now i'm using modded s2e from psyke83. It running well, but there's no option that it will mount /system to /sd-ext, only for the /data partition.

SD card has a serious low read and write access in comparison with your internal Nand flash memory , so imagine what will happen to your critical functioning parts of your OS when whole /system partition being transferred into your /SD-ext lol
You just created an ext4 partition on your SD card and used S2E to move your apps and free up internal phone memory , which is the purpose of this mod by moving your Dalvik and applications .
The ext4 partition is mounted as /sd-ext, with directories /mount points for apps, Dalvik cache. The data existing on the internal /data/app, /data/Dalvik-cache, etc, is moved to these new directories and the directories mounted within the /data file system structure of the phone without any effect on your speed and stability of your system. Thus, the phone is using the stuff on /sd-ext ( the ones i instructed )just as it used to use stuff within internal memory.
