Ok I was using link 2 sd with no
2nd partition and everything was on the as card (not system apps) And then I wanted to create a 2nd partition and I did using CWM (the XDA.cn one) and then restored all my files (even the apks that were on the sd originally I think) and now I can't download anything from the market because it says I don't have enough space on my internal memory but I have about 10mb what should I do?

10MB?
are you sure you restored things to the sd card/linked it to the 2nd partition? maybe when you did the restore it just put everything back on the internal memory?
what does link2sd say under "storage use"
Where does it say storage use? And the market works now after I restarted it but I can't link apps now

Hi all
I have a new desire which is rooted. For now, I'm only interested in adding app2sd. Is there any way to do that without installing a whole rom?
Thanks in advance!

If you're talking about Froyo's app2sd, I guess it isn't.
If you wanted to add old school A2SD, it's possible, check this site for example:

do it the simple way,
Intsall AmonRA recovery on your desire
download rom manager to your phone from market, use it to format your SD card 512mb (will make ext2), 128 swap and rest fat32 (it will show u options)
Then boot into recovery and convert ext2 to ext3.
then you will need a rom that supports old apps2sd
Thats it.
Oh if you have root download titanium back up and back up apps and use mybackup for sms,mms,bookmarks,call history. once these are restored phone will be same as before
Just installed both new Leedroid an pinky roms and am having a terrible time with low on space warnings, when I didn't use to with same apps. Two questions
1. I installed with rom manager and ticked the wipe option, is there anything else I need to check or wipe etc
2. Is there a way to move apps to sd where the option doesn't exist in the standard application manager?
Cheers

Format card to fat32 on pc,install Rom manager to desire from market.use partition card tab in Rom manager.
Could tho depend on type of card tho

Cheers for the response, but it would mean wiping card, which is a problem for me. Any other answers?

If you mean it's greyed out, try this solution:

worked flawlessly for me
Looks good, a little drastic though. May give it a try when I get back to a pc in a few days. Was hoping for something I could try in the field. .... literally!

In the thread linked above, there was something to try with the terminal emulator for rooted phones, that might be of use to you?

I flashed the lastest cm7 rom
And use the dt app2sd
At the beginning, i was able to restore all apps by titanium
However, when i try to download and install apps from market,
My phone rebooted itself, but it was not a complete reboot,
It rebooted from the opening of my theme i have installed.
Then i tried to install apps from sd card through file manager,
But failed again,when i pressed "install" , it rebooted in the way as said above.
Then i rebooted my phone by myself, it rebooted in a normal way.
but i found that all the apps in sd card were gone.
What's happening?
My sd card is "JT 8 gb' (i bought it in hongkong) ,
It didn't tell me which class is it,
When i use card reader to put things into the card,
it is about 3~4mb/s
Is the above apps installation problem related to my sd card?
I think that you will obliged to do a full wipe and then install Cm7 a second time. If you have still this problem, change your memory card if you have another

i have already do a full wipe before flashing the rom.
And i have been flashing the rom many time and the problem still exist.
Is thiis really the sd card problem or apps problem
You can download a second time the google apps from Cyanogen website. There is maybe a problem with your market.. (I know that Market don't work in the past with some custom roms but I don't remember witch one.. )

but the problem is after i have failed to install apps from market,
i tried to install apps from my sd card but still fail.
You can perhaps use another rom like Leedroid 2.4.1 and try if market and install apps work

My phone is unlocked and rooted, stock Rom 2.3.5 S-ON
I can move any app I like to the SD card using manage applications. My question is what's the point of Link2SD in these circumstances, does it offer better performance than just moving some apps to the existing SD card?
Thanks
Yes, it automatically mounts a ext partition from Your SD card and installs apps there, there's no need to move them after a install.
Link2SD is a much better method than Apps2SD.
Much more data of app installation is moved (dex, lib, apk, data). Not just apk files like App2SD.
Because they are 'linked' you can use USB storage mode without losing functionality of any apps.
It uses it's own SD partition, so doesn't hog up the memory card when you don't want it to.
Saves you loads more internal memory.
Ok thanks guys, I'll give it a go when my new memory card arrives.
Definitley, an excellent tutorial on using Link2SD can be found here

Nope, you don't need S-OFF. Mine is S-ON and it works just fine. You just need to unlock the bootloader and then root.
Hey,
I am using the stock HTC ROM for now. It is unlocked via HTCdev and rooted. I need more storage space on my phone. Going through the forums I see that I can use Link2SD and/or App2SD.
What are the differences between these... and which one is preferable? I don't have a card reader, will that be a problem?

Link2sd has a GUI it means its an app and it is easy to move apps and do many other things..
Link2sd is prefered when you have class 6 or less card. Data2sd is prefered when you have a fast card.
Well you can make a partition without card reader but just hope it doesnt give errors.
I personally partitioned my SD Card using CWM-recovery. I use S2E. You can try that out too, although the ones suggested above will also do the job well.

Install Titanium Backup - the pro version is well worth the money - and choose 'More' from the menu then ''Integrate sys Dalvik Cache into ROM' also choose 'Clean up the Dalvik Cache'. This could increase available memory by quite a bit.
On Link2SD on the menu choose 'More' and then 'Link dalvik-cache files' - this will free up even more.
Then do a reboot.

I finally set up link2sd. Why people do it from the PC, I'll never know... I did it through the CWM recovery and it took me about 3 minutes =D
