Ok, wife has a rooted and s off desire. It had 41 mb free internal space. Installed Google+ and Adobe air. Moved air to SD and moved Google+ with titanium and link2sd. Checked internal memory down to 25 mb. So I uninstalled both the apps. I now get a reading of 32 mb not 41 mb as it was before. Why?

hi,
coz data used by those apps are still into dalvik cache.
use titanium back up to clean dalvik cache (menu/more)
hope this help
It's dose, it says 2 app data not needed but to remove must donate. Is there any free apps that can do this safely?

you can wipe all dalvik via recovery is you have cwm.
Or just donate. The app is well worth it.
Yes indeed. This was my first boight into android market. Daily used.

If I wipe all dalvik will it harm my phone in anyway?
Also done some research and found an app called A2SDGUI. looks like it can move dalvik to SD, is this a good idea and will it work on gingerbread?

Hi.
It won t harm ur phone. If you do so advice to wipe cache. Be in mind while rebooting takes much time coz rebuilding dalvik-cache.
Dunno a2sdgui could be a good idea depends ur sdcard speed. If not class10 (mean write speed 10mb/s). Dalvik is often used by system so if bad sdcard performance can reduce you rom performance.

so sdcrad writing speed = 2Mb/s
a2sd (move app 2 sd card) yes is enough
move your dalvik to you sd card no it to low (don't advice to do so)
have just look app mention a2sdgui requiered Requirements:
- ROOT
- busybox
- A2SD Darktremor Scripts V2.7.5.2 and above.
dunno if you got a custom rom (which means you got aswell a custom kernel)
if yes, have a look to system/etc/init.d folder this where script like this a based.
hope this help

Yeah, dalvik is filling the /data partition. Just 'install' a2sd+.
I am moving with link2sd and titanium.

I need some help with increasing my internal storage;
The problem is i am a newfag and kind of no interested in any super roms with awesome tweaks etc. I just want the same 2.3.3 android htc gave us in update with old sense etc but with like a 1gb of memory for apps so what i need to do?
I tried to find something and here is what i think i need to do:
1.Security off
2. Root --> here is a question. Does a root dissapears after i do a factor reset?
3. Now i need to install some kind of custom recovery - dont rly know how
4. Install some rom????
I was reading and trying to understand the difference beetwen the apps2sd data2sd, there were some disscussions that data2sd slows your phone etc. but then someone ofc spoke that's incorrect... There is a lot of contradictions in topics so it's hard for someone new to get to know the topic well.
So know in the end i will just write once again:
I want 2.3.3 htc android from update with everything the way it was but with bigger internal storage. Is that possible?
You could use a rooted stock rom that supports a2sd:

Ok guys
I did s-off,rooted and know here's the question
What's the difference beetween the partition ext 2,3 and 4? It's related with speed or stability? ^^Do I even have an option to choose which one will I use? I have class 2 card from samsung which came with desire
I also dont exacly know which option i need to choose in my 4.0.1.4 CWM at Partition SD Card. I want like 1gb for apps
Also special thanks to MatDrOiD for quick reply
Different formatting, speed, stability etc.
ClockWorkMod is poor regarding the partitions.
Id your need good recovery, get the RMD Recovery.
Usually roms let user decide what ext he needs, but fire some there are specifications to ext 4 or ext 3.
Read rom requirements.

The higher the number of ext partition the faster it is.
Would be nice to honor it by using thanks button.

I want to do that^^^
But my laptop is in the repair shop, so could I do it with terminal emulator, if so can anyone give me a guide because I really want some app space! <3
if you have cwm you can use that however it will format your sd card. you may want to wait till you get your pc back ti back up your contentd of sd card and also take a full backup of your rom using cwm before doing anything just in case things go wrong

For starters it's nothing to do with the MTD partitions. It's just moving the dalvik cache from /data/ to /cache/. Secondly the size of /cache/ was reduced in the 2.3.4 update from 250mb to 100mb. 100mb is nowhere near big enough for the DC.

Exactly, your getting the error because you don't have one. I think it's more of a prompt vs an error though. It's still wiping your dalvik cache.

You will get this error
The script has a duel function ... it will wipe data/dalvik-cache .... and ext/data/dalvik-cache... The last part is for users that use an ext partition on their SD card .. As you don't have one, it will wipe the internal and give you an error for the EXTernal ... so just ignore that error....
I believe miui is based on cm so the call echo fix won't work.
I maybe wrong can anyone confirm?

Hi all,
Everybody here must know about latest cm10.1 by olddroid right It's great news for our gio. But i have problem and maybe several people here had the same. This rom already has init.d folder but it seems doesn't support cronmod. I have done every thing i can, like flash it (cronmod) through proper flashing method and push it manually to /system /etc /init.d also set it's permission to rwxr-x---. But what i got is bootloop .
It would be great if any body here have the solution. I'm totally noobs but I love to learn :fingers-crossed:
Use link2sd instead of cronmode.
Its fast and bug free.

With link2sd, I wont get "1GB" letter on my internal
Did you do "mount system" before you flashed the cronmod scripts?
I'm using the app2sd+ and the int2ext4+ script and they worked really good after I mounted system.
After you flashed it you also have to format sd-ext.

Of course I do mount /system before, if not, i wont got bootloop . But wait a sec, if you already use cronmod, why on earth you also use app2sd+? And if you don't mind, can you attach your screenshot here? I want to see your internal storage and your init.d folder
I'm using the a2sd+ script to move all my apps and my dalvik cache to the external partition. Sorry if you thought that I'm using a different script than cronmod, I meant the cronmod a2sd+ script. My phone still shows a total space of 178 mb but I've got 1 gb on my external partition and as you can see I'm using 500 mb of it. I just ignore that it shows only 178 mb.

Yeah, A2SD+ works quite fine, but I made two small changes:
* /data/app-lib is also moved to /sd-ext. Gives some more free space on /data.
* Mount sd-ext as journalled ext4, more error resilence

That's was very easy, what you should do is pick one of those script (cronmod) and flash it through cwm
I did, But nothing changed.
Also, how do I know if my rom has init.d support?

You have to mount /system before flashing those script. And to check if your rom support init.d or not, you can go through /system/etc, it should be init.d folder there

Roughly how many apps can be installed on data using the 65mb hboot? (without using sd-ext)
If you don't use any a2sd script, fairly few. The dalvik cache will be filling up the internal memory fast.

What if i use a2sd but with n, n, y ?
Would that keep the dalvik on internal (making it faster), but move apks to sd-ext?
Would i then be able to install a decent number of apps (say 50) even though the dalvik is on internal?
Or is there a different script for this purpose?
THanks

Dalvik on internal doesn't make a performance difference. Data on internal does.
http://db.tt/m4sQLDOI
Install this zip from recovery. It moves dalvik and data/app to sd-ext. It will be enough for about 100 apps, without affecting performance at all.

Cool thanks bro for the info & zip!
Why is it that it doesn't affect performance though? Is it to do with read speeds of sd cards being so fast that it doesn't matter?

Because dalvik cache isn't as frequently accessed as data, so it doesn't need great sd-card speeds to be fast.
I had about 200 apps on there with no issue, however it's been a while since I used it so obviously modern apps are bigger.
