Sd-ext not mounting scripts - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using the ICS Beta from Sony with Dooms advanced stock kernel, I got a ext3 partition and when I use link2sd its creates mount scripts but when phone reboots it says not mounted And in root explorer nothing shows in sd-ext either.

from my experience if the kernel does not setup the sd-ext folder sd-ext will not mount. i have yet to find a ics kernel with it built in.

Stock kernels don't typically have support for startup scripts like this.

link2SD does not use the SD-Ext directory even if your 2nd partition is EXT 2/3/4. It is most prob kernel related, to be sure format your 2nd partion as FAT32, That file system can be used with link2SD and is natively supported by android.

Cant mount system in CWM

Hi
I cant mount system to make backups..
Anyone knows how to fix??
Im running gioprio 1.4
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
That happened to me, when I was using the "stock" cwm with CM7.1.
I had to flash another cwm which came with the rom. Maybe you should look around if the Giopro rom has one too.
(Or just simply try to flash a newer version)
I will try, do you know if gioprio uses rfs or ext4 file system??
Sent from my GT-S5660 using xda premium
I never used it, so I have no idea. But this post suggests, there are problems with ext4:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21281244&postcount=392
The changelog however says, 1.4 supports EXT3/EXT4

[Q] Updater-script for stock

Hey guys,
I have unpacked a stock 2.3.6 rom and unpacked system.rfs, but how do i make the updater-script with what i can install it in CWM? I want he rom to be in Ext4, so there must be something like: mount (ext4/.../...) in the script right?
Can someone help me with this?
Thanks,

This is the standard list, you can take mounts and wipe from another roms updaterscript

So can I copy updater-script from an other rom? Or at least symlinks etc?
At least format, mount, and kernel,
But note that mounting is EXT4 and not rfs, and kernel name is stated right or it wont install

but how can i create a whole updaterscript? typing??
Uhhm yes..
Use another one as base and edit everything to match yours...
Ui prints are easy, but symlinks take some more time

[Tester Needed] s2efix -> Making your device support S2E :D

Hey guys,
I'm one of S2E translators (Italian one ) and I'm proud of my job; I'd use anytime S2E but I had problems with ext corruption.
So, I managed to obtain a little script to avoid this.
For me it works; it's written to avoid ext4 tunefs tune up. If someone could test (use s2e without and with the script) I'd be glad.
So, here it is: s2efix
Waiting hopefully for testers and reports.

Yup!
But I think that your CM7 has already that fix.
Can you check if is present in your '/etc/init.d' folder a '02gio' file?
I'm sorry... But as far as i know, cm already support for S2E right?
Using it always on my phone before i know other script....

Yes of course, S2E only works on cyanogenmod. But sometimes it doesn't works well on some cyanogenmod based rom, I had it my self, sometimes after reboot I can't open my apk and it's has weird icon. And I'm gonna share this on my group, hopefully there is some one there that would test this
About the init.d folder i checked but actullay i didnt mention tht the rom i have is a port from ace so it has 02cooper
Edit: Do I have to flash this zip to avoid corrupt of ext?

To tell the truth i quite face some minor problems on s2e like sometimes my phone gets total freeze and i need to take out the battery n when i do my phone boots like as if i did a factory reset so i have to restart my phone to fix it and sometimes when i flash a new rom i have to make a partion again using cwm any suggestions?

Old versions do note have tunefs and so no ext corruption.
For lag, on my Gio works like a charme with also data2sd.
Maybe depends on sd class or on a too big ext...

So what your suggest for ext size? I usually partition it to 1GB for ext4 on my 8GB class 10
1gb for ext it's to big for me... Imo..
I just set only 600mb, and it's enough for me...

I can test! what i gotta do?
Backup everything, in order to restore later, with a nandroid backup.
Your sd-ext must be ext4.
After this:
- Wipe all
- Install CM7/9/10
- Boot into phone
- Install S2E, configure it with ext4
- Reboot, so it's enabled
- Try installing some apps
Theorically it'll lags like hell.
After wipe and do all the above but flash CM and my fix.
And, please, report logcats.

This will be out of the topic . Every time I do restore, my sd ext reverted to ext3. Is it just me or everybody else experienced the same thing?

You don't have to move/install anything manually. Based on the ROM you select apps/app data/ dalvik cache etc will be moved automatically when you flash the ROM or when you activate the a2sd script in the ROM.
Read the ROMs opening pages carefully to understand how this works on each of them.

[SOLVED]Is there a compatible Directory binder for Xperia M(Android.4.3)

Hi, Is there a compatible directory binder for Android 4.3?, I'm trying to move obb game files to external sd card using directory binder from Lucky Patcher 4.3.5 but it does not work. My phone is rooted i rooted it using Towelroot, I also tried to use Folder mount and GL to SD but no luck. Directory binder from lucky patcher works perfectly when my phone is still on 4.1.2. Is there anyway to move obb files to external sdcard?
.
Please help

GL2SD Works absolutely great for me I guess the problem persists for you only. Try moving via File Manager and then GL2SD? It worked for me once never tried since then!

No, you need to unlock your bootloader before you can use cwm/twrp and custom ROMs/Kernels. For the reboot fix for towelroot I read something in a thread in general section.
And Im using linking from Android Tuner, Im on 4.1 but should work on 4.3 (not tested)
Sent from my Sony Xperia M C1905 via tapatalk
Root with Towelroot, then install SuperSU, then install busybox, then connect your phone to pc, run this script and follow the instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53490030&postcount=27
Ok now folder mount works after i applied reboot fix :laugh: :good:
please read other thread, try this, no need for installing mounter apps :laugh:
