I would like to root my phone, but I wanna first choose a ROM that I want to take. But I don't know which one, here are my requirements:
- New Sense ( I thought from HTC HD )
- App2SD
- Stable ( without any freezes! )
- Using setcpu set the ( when screen off ) in battery save option.
- No more ext partitions ( I've created one using a guide with 512 MB and 0MB swap, I don't know what ext partiton it is. )
- a working www.htcsense.com
- Less bugs!
- Not overclocked.
Does anybody know a ROM with this?
Take iNsertCoin

Fast, stable, designed for using, not for benchmarking
Fits all the points you mentioned.
Seriously, in development? Wrong board mate.

If I install this one, how much free space will I have in internal memory? FOUND ALREADY 133 MB ( is this alright? )
How do look the notification area?
( image please )
Will the apps which I install be automatical set to SD card?

You have the thread to InsertCoinHD 1.9.5 Here!
There you will also find dome screenshots! If you want a power widget you can flash that after you have flashed this rom, and also cook the notification icons, power widget to whatever at UOT
You need to have a ext partition (and you said you have 512 MB), and then the apps will be on the SD automatically
This is the rom I am using right now, and it works perfect!
Ok, but how looks the notifications area? I can't find a picture of that part.
It looks like this.

This is how my looks but I have cooked the power widget & the battery% at UOT, the rest looks at it would on the original rom.

I was to slow, but now you can see how you can modify the battery and power widget!
Ok, that look cool! One last question: is the battery life improved? And how many internal free space do you have with this Rom with 1 ext partition? ( 512 MB)
Battery life is good, depends on kernel, radio, usage.
I can get 30+ hours out of the phone with medium usage. Up to three days, when it's lightly used.
I have 1Gb EXT4 partiton, and currently 623 MB is free.
And what will it be with a normal ext partition with 512 MB?
Normal EXT partiton? EXT4 is normal, too You mean EXT3 then. Depends on what you install. ROM should be taking up a few megabytes for apps and 35-40MB dor the Dalvik-Cache after install.
I thought it was a ext2 partition...
Ext2 is not really supported by those A2SD+ scripts. 3/4 recommended.
Ok, still one question. When I make a nandroid backup, will then be all my settings, apps and everything will be backed up? And too my stock ROM? So when I'll flash insertcoin and want to go back restore with nandroid is enough to go back to stock ROM? With my settings, apps and everything?
Nandroid backs up everything, yes.
So then i don't need to backup everything using titanium backup?
If you don't want to restore them in your ROM you want to flash then no.
Nandroid writes the whole ROM into images.
TI Backup only the apps and settings - so you can restore them in other ROMs.
Hey Guys,
I have Team 8 GB Class 10 MicroSD. I did partition and give ext4 to 2 gb.
I installed CyanogenMod and installed Link2SD. I select ext4 partition in first screen of link2sd. But i can't see ext4. My phone gives me no empty space error.
What should i have to do?

What do you mean exactly by "can't see"?
If you can't see it in the file explorer though if that what you mean.
Link2sd mounts the 2nd SD partition on /data/sdext2 I think and won't be needed to be accessed by a user because link2sd will manage the apps and caching automatically.
I hope this helped you

You can't see it but it's mounted. Link2SD deals with everything bro.
Download disk usage and you will be able to see the second partition

This guy did this and he have 834 mb free space. But i have 40 mb free space.
But i already did partitioning.
Your friend is using data2SD and you are using Link2SD. Data2SD merges together your internal storage and your ext4 partition and makes your phone see those like one and that's all, no control after that. When you using Link2SD it won't show total empty space there where you want it but partition is there, link2sd will take care of everything (if you did setup ok) and you have total control over your apps so link2sd makes better choice for most of ppl here...
No worries, if you did all like it should be those 40mb of free space shouldn't change in long time even after install tons of apps

He's using Data2SD and you haven't installed that.
You must to use Data2SD, it's better because the app get installed on the partition in the sdcard, recomend flash the jikantaru patch, search fot it

Link2sd gives good Performance...
I installed Data2Sdsd script some days ago....
with 16 GB card of class 10...
But it didnt give me a good performance.....
But now using Link2sd.....
First i create 2nd partition of ext4,,, It didnt work for me... lol....
Now i am using ex2 with no problems.... Thanx to creater of this script...
It is working very smoothly....
Thanks for the answers guys.
Here is the problem:
"There isn't any space"
"Nearly all apps at SD and this is the situation"
examine gaowmer
Hmmm seems like your Link2sd options are wrong... Open link2sd, go to settings and be shure that auto link and relink lib files at boot are checked. Under Auto link settings all three options should be checked. Under Install location, automatic or external should do the job.
Now you should go back to app list, hit Multi-select option and choose all app's that you wanna (or better, you can) move to external space... When you selected apps hit Actions button and choose Create link... That should do the job

Hey,
I am using insertcoin on my desire and have a 1gb Ext Partition.
Titanium Backup says the half of it is used but my phone says my phone space is full.
Why? How can i make the Ext Partition use?
Metin
The fact that you got Insertcoin installed proves that you have a working EXT partition. Now if you are using the CM7r2 version of the ROM, be advised that the dalvik cache was not moved to the ext partition for speed considerations. That's probably the part that is full on your phone. I use FreeSpace app on the market to view every partition. It's better than the one built inside Titanium Backup imo.
No i am using a2sd and want the apps to be installed to the Ext partition.
Ive tried link2sd but this makes some apps like opera unstartable
They should be installed to the ext part out of the box. Although it's been a long time I cant remember if I'm right. And yeah using another app could just mess the script baadnews implemented for the rom.
And what i have to do?
What partition type do you have? Ext3 or Ext4? I remember using EXT4 with Insertcoin.
I use Ext4
I run the CM7r2 version of InsertCoin. Your apps are automatically installed on the EXT4 partition BUT not all the app is stored there so some of the internal memory is still used when you install an app.
How many apps have you installed?

I have 60 apps or so, but i see the apps folder is linked to Ext. My data/data folder is about 60mb, would it help to move it to Ext? But where are the other 60mb used on Internal? Which folder would best to move?
How i move it?
I believe moving anything will cause problems.

I ran this on Sandvold's ICS with a class 4 SDcard. This has a flashanle zip. But as you can see in the thread you have to manually install it. I tried the ICS zip with a fresh InsertCoin flash and it falied. I have not attempted to install it manually yet as I have been focused on installing and learning to live with s Linux OS...
Try this.
Edit
I meant to say the download from sandvold's site for the ICS ROM is a flashable zip. It appears that you need to manually install it for other ROMs.

I think the libs of apps like opera are very big.
I think it would help if i link them to the system partition.
Link2sd link them to SD but would it be possible to link them to system?

Read this...
http://docs.insertcoin-roms.org/master/en-US/misc/free-space-without-data2ext.html
I remember someone made a little script based on this to make it easy. There was a thread about it.
I ve read that moving data to Ext isnt good because it damals the SD but can i do it same way to system Partition?
Probably not. From what I understand, when the phone boots it reads the system partition first before it reads the SD card. If you link system to sd-ext, I believe the phone will not boot at all as the system files cannot be accessed during the initial startup since they are on sd. I'm not an expert but I haven't heard of anyone moving system to ext.
If you are really after more storage than the Sense hybrid, check the Supernova ROM. It's the official GB rom from HTC with a lot of space for apps. Downside is it's the old Sense.
I mean a symbolic /data/data/*/lib=>system (or may to SD, but system would better) because the libs are big.
I have tried link2sd for it but a2sd deleted all libs from SD.
hi every1 plz help

The second partition doesn't have to be ext2/3/4. Fat works fine with Link2SD.

Maybe your SD-card is corrupted ? Try formatting the whole card, and try again.
Or maybe try another SD-card..
Same problem. Link2sd used to work with my ext2 but it did not auto mount my partiton after I flashed another ROM. I tried repartition my sd card several times but in vain.
My solution: Install A2SD Dark Tremor and forget Link2SD

Link2sd worked fine with me with ext2 filesystem, with a few remarks:
- make sure the partitions on the sdcard are all PRIMARY, not Secondary partitions + Logical partitions: FAT32 for the first partition, the regular data one, ext2 for the second partition, for use in Link2sd, a2sd, s2e, etc.
- use the latest version of Link2sd. up until a certain version of Link2sd, the boot script wouldn't work fully and you had to restart the android interface after each boot. it now works fine if properly setup.
- use the latest version of Superuser app and update su.
- busybox might help.
tested on stock Android 2.3.3 on a Samsung Galaxy Gio
I'm not sure what the problem is here. I'm running CM9A6 via the RobotoMod 1.0.2 ROM, and I couldn't get the default S2E to work at all. I installed link2SD as a workaround, and while I know it has it's limitations, I can't determine why it won't link an app.
I downloaded Where's my Perry? for my kids, and due to it's size (50+ MB), I wanted to get it out of my internal storage. It isn't working, though - link2SD is throwing an error saying there's "insufficient storage". I'll let the screenshots speak for themselves:

Perry?free is already on the SDCard. You are trying to install it to internal memory and then getting Link2SD to link it back to the SDCard. As you only have 51.18MB free on your internal storage and Perry?free is 52.73MB it won't work. Leave it where it is.

Hi,
For CM9, use Ext4 on 2nd partition on SDcard. Do you have it?.
Link2sd was working fine with me when I had CM9Alpha7. Try only with Link2sd(don't have multiple SDcard apps).
Select 'Autolink' on Link2sd settings. If you do right, all apps will be installed on SD card.

2nd part is formatted Ext2. It works fine other than this one program, and I have it configured to install to SD.
I'll try linking just the dalvik-cache and library, and see if that works, leaving the app on the SD card.

If you bothered to look at the images provided by the OP, you will see that Link2SD is working fine. Changing the partition to Ext4 will not magically create more internal space.
See tats the problem wit link2sd. I used it for a long time after using data2sd. Now I'm back to daya2sd. It may boot slower but it gives u happiness.
