[Q] Change in memory - Galaxy Ace S5830i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Samsung Ace 5830i - Rom Jelly Bean 4.1.1
Could I please get advice on how to change the internal storage to SD storage?
Phone to see sd memory as internal memory.
I typed but failed:
system/etc/vold.fstab
Code:
## vold configuration file for the emulator/SDK
## This is the direct uevent device path to the SD slot on the device
#emu_media_path /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/bcm_sdhc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
I tried to use Link2SD, and I was not satisfied. (I do not want another application).
My English is poor, sorry
Thank You

You can use script like CronMod to increase the internal memory. All you need is a rooted phone, a rom with init.d support (all custom roms have one) and ext partition on SD Card (Go to CWM>Advanced>Partition SD Card>Size (1GB max)>Swap (0MB) Wait to get "Partitioning Done" message). If you have previously installed Link2SD, make sure to delete all the Link2SD config files (in /system/etc/init.d/ and /system/etc/install-recovery.sh delete the line mounting ext3 partition). If you still have problem flashing CronMod, I suggest you reflash the rom. Here is the link,

Hope I Helped

Try to reflash the rom and then flash CronMod. It must be the Link2SD files messing it up.

How to format Internal SDCard to EXT4?

Hi there,
I've tried to follow other "tutorials" (for another Android phones) to format my internal SD Card to ext4, but with no success.
My method was:
- Connect phone to Linux PC
- Enable USB Storage on Phone (the drive appears in Linux)
- dmesg | tail (to see new device and partition name, for example, /dev/sdb1)
- mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
- Unmount partition in Linux
- Stop USB Storage on Phone
- Unplug Cable
And the result is.......... The phone formats the Internal SD again to vfat!!!
Why does this happen? Any ideas?
How can i surpass this? I have Latest stock rom (rooted).
Getting lost here... :\
Cheers,
Phk
1. Download Minitool Partition Wizard
2. Connect phone with USB mass storage
3. Open Minitool Partition en right click on the SD Card and choose format.
4. Choose file system EXT4 and 32KB cluster size
5. When you did all that, you click the "Apply" button in the top left corner.
6. Wait for it to finish and voila!
Hope this helps!
sorry for this question, but why do you want to do that? is it so that you can use the whole 16gb for apps and store media on your external SD only?

Obviously to use HD-Video on the phone.
Files often exceed 4 Gigabyte, and for that filesystems like ntfs, exfat or ext4 are needed.
Going to give it a try soon, thanks nerotix!

Is there a way of doing this through windows? Also would it be worth doing it to my 16gb external SD. Thanx in advance

You will need to patch some files for that to work. It's not bothered me enough that I want to fix it. If you restart your phone, it will reformat your internal SD-card to vfat, even if it's already ext4-formatted.
I'm also interested in this.
Really, it will change back to the original file system?
Which files would we have to patch to prevent this?

It depends, I believe alot of ROMs are ext4 supported, for those that are ext4 supported you dont have to patch anything I believe.
Guys please post only after testing. This is important to avoid deadlocks.....
Facts:
#1 - Current SGS2 Stock roms have rootfs and datafs formatted in EXT4 so they do support it
#2 - they force sd format to vfat so that is probably what needs patching.
Question is :
A - WHICH system app do we need to patch
B - Does the SD mount correctly as ext4 ?

No, it does not.
Tried both a microSD inside and another SD external via USB-OTG.
The OS 'catches' the 'faulty' ext4 cards and prevents mounting, which should work perfectly allright seeing Fact #1.
PS: The minitool mentioned above does not allow cluster sizes of 32 KB, only 1, 2 and 4 (checked this with an 8 GB mSDHC and 16 GB SDHC).
As far as I can remember:
/init.rc:
Code:
exec apply_system_policy /dev/block/mmcblk0p11 vfat
and /init which only seems to support FAT mounted SD-cards.
So you can take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14642927#post14642927
I think it will support NTFS soon when the devs are really interested in

Oh great.. Guess what.. /init.rc gets renewed at boot
rootfs is readonly, i've mounted it RW, edited init.rc, commented the vfat line, formatted the SD, and then reboot.
When the device booted, SD was clean and mounted with VFAT again

/init and /init.rc are part of zImage (the kernel). You must extract the initramfs, update the file, and write the changes back. You will probably get a yellow triangle (non-Samsung kernel message) if you manage to boot it.

I PM'd Chainfire asking for help on rebuild initramfs, but he didn't care.
I saw on his CFRoot post that he built a toolchain for recompiling the initramfs, so his stuff would be pretty useful in this case....
.. come on chain, clear us out.. Or include this in your next kernel, whatever.. :\ SUCKS.

[Q] [SOLVED az mi kutas stanal] Problem with LINK2SD:(

I`m running MiniCM7 2.1.1 with unlocked bootloader and nAn`s kernel installed. but whem I`m trying to mount a second partition for LINK2SD, programme can not see the second partition. It`s saying "Mount script cannot be created. mount:mounting /dev/blocks/vold/179:2 on /data/sdext2 failed: No such device" i made an ext3 partition and choose it in Link2SD app, but it`s still not working any solutions fot this?
As I can see a lot of people have this problem with another phones but nobody except me with our lovely x10 Mini??
I found that it's better to use 2 fat32 partitions with Link2SD
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
Thanks for tip will try it now
edit:still not working this time "Device or resource busy"
edit 2: after restart i need to make a script, but after making a script and restarting message with creating script shows again and again everything was fine before updating MiniCM7 2.0.7>2.1.1
anyone any ideas?? i really need 2nd partiton and be able to move applications there
I *think* it could be because gingerbread roms have native app2sd support which could conflict with link2sd as both look for 2nd partition?
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
but on older version of the CM7 this feature was working. i think it`s not because of this
why r u trying to use link2sd when gingerbread roms actually have builtin app2sd?

because if I will use native app2sd and mount SD Card to PC or my home audio via USB every application that is moved to SD will stop work. so I want to move them to 2nd partition and then I will not have this problem. but I can`t mount 2nd partition
if you just want to move app to sdcard then you should try my step.
i'm using Paul's Mini CM7Pro which already including native app2sd. So all i have to do is making all three partitions (fat32 5,65 GB--ext2 1,4 GB--the rest for linux swap). Now if you install any apps, they won't taking internal storage as much as before.
sorry if i have bad english

Iva also found that multi-mount sd lite does the trick, you dont have to unmount the card from andorid in order to use it (fat32 disk) and so you can access and use the disk as usual from your pc and from you phone at the same time. It for free on the market and is much quicker than mounting using the system tray app!!

[MOD]External SD as Primary/Internal

This is a simple mod to make the external SDcard mount as the primary/internal (/sdcard)
and the internal is mounted as the secondary (/sdcard-ext)
This should work on most (all?) roms but is only tested on MIUIv4 with a GSM RAZR
Just flash the switchSD.zip
To revert the effect, flash reswitchSD.zip
Requested by lukas77 external sd mounted in folder of internal (/sdcard/sdcard-ext)
Some problems though, after each boot you will have to remove and insert SD for it to mounts.
It is safe to remove SD because it isn't mounted but it's a bit of a hazzle.
Flash SDinFolder.zip to revert, just flash reswitchSD.zip as above.
make shore before flashing that you don't have any file or folder named sdcard-ext on internal sdcard.
EDIT:
I have been away for a while and came back to a thread full of pproblems and a bunch of PMs.
Unfortuneatly I don't have time to ivestigate the problems or fix for newer builds.
My recomendations for everyone is: Do Not Use It unless you'r realy know what your doing and can fix it for your build.
work perfect eclipce 1.3 via GSM

Some apps doesn't support external SD (Very noticeable on MIUI as music can't find music on external and file explorer only browses internal).
Some people (me) prefer a storage that is easily movable.
If you always have a larger SD inserted you'll probably find yourself a bit limited with the original mounting options.

If you have programs (or games, mostly games) that is installed on your internal SD they will break. I guess games that download extra data to SD just will have to download it again though...
The good thing is that you can test and then just flash reswitchSD.zip if it didn't work.
This tells vold (the program responsible for mounting the storages) to mount external on /mnt/sdcard and internal on /mnt/sdcard-ext instead of the reverse.
No links.

You will for a ROM that erases the whole system partition but won't for a patch. But it doesn't seem like there are that many ROMs that provides patches so you probably will.

Great idea! However my testing found out that it wasn't the easiest thing to do as vold will try to mount the external SD before the internal is mounted and the folder present.
It works but after every boot you will have to remove SD (safe as it isn't mounted) and reinsert it. May work better on other ROMs (did some Googeling and found that CM7 on O2X did have problem while stock didn't whit exactly the same thing)
Adding to first post now!
Would it be possible to mount SD as an expansion of your internal? i.e., treating them as the same memory unity?

No, if so we would have to raid them but I have never heard of some raid utilities built for Android.
Even if it's theoretically possible to build the Linux utilities for ARM and run them on Android it would probably be loads of work and customization for each ROM as Android have very bad possibilities of running scripts at boot.

Best App2SD method ?

So we all know the Xperia 2011 internl storage is very low. On my Xperia Mini Pro, with CM9 installed (normally, the smallest rom out there), I'm struggling to install apps and keep my storage with at least 50mb free. I use the ZDBox app that has an APP2SD option for moving apps to the SD Card but that's still not enough.
Is there a way I overlooked ? In my old HD2 days, Apps2Ext was working very well. With a 1gb ext partition on your sd-card, you were good to go. However, "ext" doesn't seem to be a popular option around here.
Any idea ?
Thanks !
Link2SD
best for me

Hi
I confirm, link2sd is a life saver.
Link2sd FTW!
But ull lose ur apps if u format ur fone even though apps are in the sd card
Sent from my SK17i using xda app-developers app
Link2SD is the best method.
Format your sdcard:
2 partitions (primary) - 1 FAT32 (the main one), 2 EXT2 (for moving apps to 500-1000MB).
In my system I have 100-200 apps (internel storage -150mb free/ system-40 mb free).
All apps are linked to second partition on the sd card.
Important LEAVE launchers, widgets and root apps in internal storage!
Thanks guys! Will look into it this week-end...

link2sd is the best for me, its has many options, move app to system, unistall system app, clear cache, clear dalvik cache, and you can choose 1 by 1 were to install the app, sometimes i use it just to unistall some system app and clear dalvik ( when i flash a new rom) because you can use it without mount ext for that
Same here. The first app I install after a flash, is Link2SD and Root Explorer. Can't live without them.
Hi
As said, link2sd all the life.:good:
why do i selec install location failure " segmentation fault"

Hi Everyone,
I would like to ask if You know with file system is used during preparing of sd card?
I'm using to create partitions on card CWM (6.0.2.7) from stock CM10 FXP203 kernel.

I have one s5839i and like all samsung galaxy ace it have really little internal space. So I have the external sdcard and I would like to make it as internal.
Here is the original vold.fstab file:
## vold configuration file for the emulator/SDK
## This is the direct uevent device path to the SD slot on the device
#emu_media_path /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0/mmc_host/mmc0
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/bcm_sdhc.3/mmc_host/mmc1
What are the changes that I have to do?
Thank you so much in advance!
Make a ext-partition on your sd-card and flash data2ext script. Muuuuch more easy.

Hey, can you help me with this? With some link to tutorial or smthing like that, thanks
- Flash Rafael.Baugis Kernel via odin or cmw.
- Go to cwm, advanced, Partition SD Card, choose how much you will add to internal space und choose as swap 0 mb. Finish it and reboot
- go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955422 download "Data2sd-ext Fixed.zip" in attached files and put it on sd
- Go again to CWM, choose .zip from sd and install it.
- reboot and look at the taskmanager for you new internal memory.

Sorry but I am completely new to this, I have rooted my phone and unlocked it successfully, how do I "Flash Rafael.Baugis Kernel via odin or cmw."? I have tried googling it but I can't find a tutorial for the S5839i.

Search for a tutorial for S5830i. S5839i and S5830i are the same device

Thanks for your post. I followed the instructions but when I check my internal memory it is still the tiny internal phone storage, not the partition.
