[Solved] Does the a2sd+ work on Miui XJ a2sd? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Miui XJ a2sd 1.7.x was the first Miui i flashed on my desire, I tried activating the a2sd with the zipalign and cachesd commands but it didn't work.
Searching the internet for a fix i read that it's a common problem and flashing the darktremor a2sd script should fix the problem.
I searched everywhere but i couldn't find the script to download.
I then decided to flash the d2ext, but it was really slow, and i had some issues with deleting files.
In the end i gave up and returned to froyo.
Once again i flashed the Miui xj a2sd 1.8.12 in the hope that things will run different this time, but i ran out of memory very fast, my phone shows that i have only 20 MB of internal memory left, and the a2sd has like 450 MB.
I can't install anymore apps without seeing the low memory sign, so is there anyway to fix this?

Activate A2SD+ with commands from a terminal emulator
A2SD zipalign
A2SD reinstall - this did it for me.

Thanks alot for the help, that did work.
I tried the aligning first but didn't work, it said that the script didn't run on boot, so i used the reinstall command and now i have 90 MB free internal memory.
I'm going to install more apps to see if the a2sd is working, or if i have to do this everytime i run out of memory.

Nope. You can do this only once. Reinstall actived the a2sd for you - because before it was not loading properly.

App2SD+ not working in MIUI-XJ ROM

Finally downloaded and installed a2sd version of MIUI-XJ. Everything went smoothly. Loving the speed. Awesome MIUI implementation and thanks XJ for modifying it.
Now the problem started when I try to activate app2sd.
When I run the code to activate from terminal, It gives me error - "Problem detected: Darktremor Apps2SD may not have ran during boot. Cannot read a2sd.mountpoint."
I tried to rewipe everything and flashed still no luck. I have 512 MB ext 3 partition which I was succesfully using for Leedroid, Insertcoin and gingervillian (which use same darktremor code)
If I go in settings and SD card setting I can see A2SD+. Total space 457 MB and available as 453 MB.
So what option do I have now from below?
1. Downloading darktremor script and flashing it and try?
2. I dont know what is D2EXT and D2W so I never tried it. I have 512MB Ext 3 and remaining fat 32 (0 swap). can I try any of that version with that partition structure?
I really started liking this ROM. I hope something works because currently I am using it as it is and only 4-5 apps install bcoz soon it will go into low memory.
Thanks in advance.
You don't need to flash the DarkTremor script because MIUI-XJ has A2SD script built in and you use the terminal to activate it.
Download Terminal from market and open it
Write:
su
a2sd reilstall
After few seconds phone should reinstall a2sd and start to move apps to ext
It worked for me
Yes Meaple, But that script was giving error for some reason
Thanks Vanthor,
I tried that but same error was coming so finally I downloaded the script and reflash it and all is well now But looks like some problem with that update in that ROM.

A2SD not found

Hi everyone.
After using pretty much all the main roms, I've decided to revert back to Teppic's pre-rooted stock Froyo rom.
I've installed his ROM and apps2sd + v1.4 with no problems. I presume apps2sd is clearly working (internal memory is 99mb after installing about 20 apps) however, when using Terminal Emulator the following occurs:
Su
A2sd cachesd
A2sd: not found
A2sd
A2sd: not found
I've tried searching everywhere and cannot find an answer. It obviously means a2sd is not installed, but who can explain the internal memory?

a2sd check
or a2sd reinstall
Same problem...a2sd not found
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I have the same problem but with LeeDroid. Reason is my internal memory is almost 0 with perhaps 20 applications installed. I do have a2sd diskinfo in QSI but I feel it's like it works only half the time with the a2sd functions :/
Partition your sd-card again on this way:

I have the same problem on Gingervillain with a partition sd..
any idea?
I get "permission denied"!
EDIT: My bad! I forgot to enter "su" first. But I'm now getting "not found".

[tutorial] make more space in internal memory with link2sd

Just download ANDROID TERMINAL
EMULATOR from Market and install it(you
must be ROOTED to use it) .
Now just TYPE in Terminal:
Code:
su
a2sd cachesdreset
Now your phone restarts and you get A LOT
of internal memory(I have like 17 apps
installed and I have 124mb of FREE
INTERNAL MEMORY)!

I have tried this method and I get this message: a2sd not found.
I have fat32 and ext2 partions on my SD card.
sent using tapatalk
maybe your rom doesn't have a2sd support.
I get:
EXT partition not mounted.
Cannot move dalvik cache to SD card
Setting file system ready property to 1.
You can use this command only if you have link2sd installed and with an ext mounted. or Rom with a2sd support like my WS rom.
I just searched this and found this to share. cause I noticed my internal memory was 40mb used and ext memory is like 43 not far, and had 99MB left in internal memory, now I typed this in Terminal Emulator and it became 124 mb after restart.
PS: All my apps linked to sd card w/ link2sd
ok, I'm using original HTC Three ROM with Root.
Link2SD is a godsend- NOTE running all Apps off of SD card takes SUBSTANTIALLY more space than linking them to SD using Link2SD and a partition!
However, the a2sd command isn't found as Aef101 stated.
I wonder do we need to swap directories/load a different app to do it if not part of the ROM and not part of Link2SD (unless I've the "wrong one"). Mine is listed as 1.9.1 by Buelnt Akpinar.
this is only for custom rom with darktremor apps2sd.
is there a noticeable loss of speed due to moving the caches off of the flash memory? seems like there might be some instability.
of course that hasn't kept me from doing it! I'll let you know if it craps out or anything. Thanks for the info. check my sig for ROM setup
I'm trying this ROM :
RUU_Marvel_Vodafone_FR_LPM_1.64.192.1_Radio_47.10c.35.3030_7.47.36.19M_release_203694_signed.exe
http://www.filefactory.com/file/cdb...35.3030_7.47.36.19M_release_203694_signed.exe
Everything's good (phoning, rooting, modding, no visual bugs and full french language) except with Jikantaru's tip.
With Terminal Emulator when I enter "a2sd cachesdreset", it says "a2sd: not found"
I don't understand because I installed link2sd and it works fine.
Is there someone who can explain to me.
Do you have a2sd installed? Link2sd may delete a2sd so it doesn't compete. trash them both and go with Data2whatever seems much better.

Thanks for your explanations. Now, I know why it was not found.
I'd just install a rom with apps2Sd already built in.
A friend of mine bought Wildfire S. His memory stats are 120MB used 30MB free.
I thought 418MB was available to the user. Is this true or not.
Is there any way to increase the internal memory of the phone... apart from links2SD or App2SD
418 MB is total memory with system and default apps. after them 150 mb left for user application.
There is no way to increase internal memory without Link2SD or APP2SD
noob questions. I have 'S-off' my virgin mobile WFS, does it mean it is rooted? When I try to input the 'SU' using the Terminal Emulator, it said permission denied? Thoughts?

You still need to root. S-Off is only Step 1... See the Tutorial in the Development Forum.

Thanks! I have followed the tutorial for rooting and rooted my virgin mobile WFS. I also downloaded Link2SD, A2SDGUI, busy box from the market. When I run the Terminal Emulator, and input "SU a2sd cachesdreset" it said a2sd permission denied. I have the stock rom, and reading some of the post, does it need a custom rom for this to work?

Make sure the "su" command isn't in capital letters.
Alright i tried this command, and it works.
Freed some 90-100 Mb's for me.
Just some things:
1. It takes a hell lot of time for first two or three boots.
2. Whenever you install a new app, it force closes until you restart your phone.
3. Some speed decrease.
Well anyone else having same ****??

[Q] Miui XJ a2sd+ disk full but plenty of space left

I'm running the a2sd+ version of the latest Miui XJ rom.
In the beginning there were no issues but today I tried installing/upgrading a few apps and I'm getting the "not enough space to install this application" error.
Even though I have:
+300MB of 2,73GB left on my SD card,
A2SD: 880MB of 940MB left
Internal Memory: 210MB of 291MB left
System Storage: 14,59 of 145MB left
System cache 3,46 of 5MB left
Memory 196MB of 406MB left.
I had to manually move the installed applications to the SD disk.
I was under the impression that when using the A2SD+ rom that it did all of this automaticly.
What is wrong with this rom or a2sd+?
I also tried the following (from the Miui-XJ thread)
- Type su
- Type a2sd zipalign
- Type a2sd cachesd
- You may even need to do a2sd reinstall
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And what happens?
Did you do "a2sd reinstall" ?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
yes I did an a2sd reinstall as well. I'm still getting the disk full error.
How many apps you have installed?
I don't know the solution but I have/had the same issues.
Until now a simple reboot fixed it all the time for me...
Would be nice to know what's causing it though.

I have 23 apps installed.
Wipe, reflash, reinstall, cachesd, try again?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Try a2sd reinstall, reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik cache and boot.
I installed the X-PART version now and everything seems to be ok now, Apps wise.

[Q] a2sd ?

Noob question. I'm currently running Express 3.4.1. It supports a2sd but when i check my internal storage it keeps going up after every app install. I did partition my sd card and can check it many different ways. SO what gives?
You can go into a terminal program, run:
su
a2sd check
a2sd reinstall
and that will move all your apps to the SD Card
This is interesting. Version 2.7.5.2, which is older. The check indicates that apps are going to sd. But when I try to to do the reinstall I get an error, something about a2sd not running on boot.

I flashed the latest a2sd in recovery and now it seems to be working.
My final question for a while
When I load a ROM I also need flash the lasted DT s2sd too?

Yes, you need to flash the script again for a new rom.
Even when it says it's baked into the ROM, I still flash A2SD in the same recovery session as the ROM
Once u flashed the a2sd zip file open your emulator and do the following comands
su
a2sd cachesd
Phone well reboot
Now erase the emulator and re download because it well stop working after u run the command but re download it and open it again now type the next set of commands
su
a2sd datasd
Phone well reboot
And thats it u should have all the free memory you need just make sure u have your sd partioned before doing this or it wont work
