Link2SD with [ROM/4.1.2] [Dec 01 2012] CM10 | Jelly Bean 4.1.2 - v2.7 - Desire General

I love link2sd and would like to take it with me after I upgraded my Desire from CM7.2 to a CM10mod.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1945441
But even after erasing the A2SD Scripts, I get a message telling me ext3 is not orking with this rom, giving Fat32 a try is recommended.

You think it's worth the try to format the 2nd partition in FAT32? Or do you have another clue what could be the matter?

It says that sd-ext2 isn't working, because you probably don't have a second ext partition, and you won't need it.
Try going through settings and stop the app from searching for a second ext partition.

Hey - thx for your reply!
I was running link2SD ith CM7.2 before. So my SD should be still parted into a main partition for all my mess and a 2nd ext3 partition for link2SD to store the apps.
That's why I wonder why link2sd it is not finding it...

So, you have a fat32 main partition with all your stuff, and an ext partition for apps. Link2sd is looking for a second ext partition, as if you had 3 partitions on your sd-card. As yoy don't have a third partition, it gives that error.

Ummm - a second as if there were 3? That's confusing me. Why can't it find the ext as before?
And how could I point it towards that one?

anyone left who'sgot an idea?
Is the ext3 not found?
Is an ext3 not working with this ROM?
thx!

Ext3 work in this rom, in the developer thread an user use it.
First ics based rom i installed give me some trouble due to wrong partition alignment, previous working on gb. Can you check partition in your recovery?

[Q] [MIUI] i just installed it BUT What is wrong with my App2SD+??

here is my problem in picture

So, as you see here the applications i`m RESTORING using Titanium Back up aren`t being installed on the App2SD ext but rather they are all going to the Internal Memory then i moved them (one by one) to the SD but the internal memory is still the same and the SD partition decreases but the ext partition stays as empty as ever,,,, So can anyone help me?
Note: i WIPED everything before installing MIUI!! ("Wipe data/factory reset")
There is none :] I emulate it with a Folder i've put into the dock.
Miui places ALL applications on multiple pages on the device. There is no actual app drawer unless you place all apps into a folder and move it to the dock. Are you positive titanium backup was sucessfully installed? Try doing a reboot on the device.

LOLWUT!! NO APPDRAWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGGGGGG (<<This is the first time IN MY LIFE i make this face in real life) THIS is VERY iPhonish xP

i had the same shock but then i just made a folder called apps and put all my apps in it and then attached it to my dock
now it looks like this
Any Dev who can help
Anyone HELP me guys i flashed a new ROM to get a free space and a fast phone!!!
Problem is still here!!
I think your question may be a bit specific for the 'Desire General' section.
I think MIUI specific questions are best off in the relevant 'Desire Android Development' threads.
Just a thought.
PS
I think there are several flavours for the App2/wherever of MIUI -you'll have to follow the threads to get the full picture.
Same thing
Did you select the option, ''Force move to same location'' or something in Titanium preferences?
I too had the same problem when i was trying out a MIUI based rom. I thought it was a problem with the A2SD or something. So i reinstalled the rom, manually installed all my apps using appbrain and it was ok. The apps mostly went to A2SD partition like its supposed to.
I think its something to do with Titanium itself.
I read on miui page to use in a terminal emulator:
su
a2sd cachesd
I solved by this way..
have a look there

is there an app that shows sd card ext type?

is there an app that shows the ext type and size/use etc?
Diskusage solves the size and use. Why do you need type at all? I suppose you should know what you did.
There have been a few posts with this same question and the answer is there isn't an app that can do this. I'm guessing you need to know because you want to flash a new ROM with a specific ext type?

lol yes i know just wondered, have modded a few mates and family members phones so forget when i next have to play with them. just handy if there was i guess
Hmm... Not sure about partition type, but an app called "elixir2" gives a load of info that can be useful.
Hope it helps.
df -h | grep sd-ext
mount | grep sd-ext
From terminal emulator, the first would tell you disk usage.
The second command would tell you what its mounted with (but not necessarily what it is because ext is mostly back/forward compatible, ie extx partition can be mounted as exty.)

Looks like people have already given easier methods of doing it, but if you need, there is a software that allows you to view the type of partition and manage the SD card on a windows computer (yes, even linux portions such as ext2/3/4) .
The name of the software is "paragon partition manager", don't think there is a free version though. So use the demo on the official website, or use other means to get your hands on a copy.
There is another alternative, it's called Acronis Disk Director Suite, but I never used it myself, so can't much about it.

I can think of why...
Say you have an ext 4 partition, then someone tells you CWM 2.5.0.7 doesn't backup and restore ext 4, and when it does, it converts it to Ext 2 or 3, you want to check it

I use SystemPanel App and it works absolutely brilliantly.
There's a lite version too - https://market.android.com/details?id=nextapp.systempanel&feature=more_from_developer
Here's a screenshot of the app showing the ext type on my phone with other details:

[Q] need help choosing hboot

Im currently running the RSK rom 7.2 with stock hboot and im wondering is there any point to changing to cmr2? I mean apart from changes to the memory layout what sort or performance changes will i see?
The more internal memory = more space for dalvik on internal storage = overall better performance.
regarding flashing kernels etc is radios the only thing that cant be flashed from recovery when changing to cmr2?
Also would i be able to use titanium to restore apps+data even though the app backups were made using stock?
You can't flash radios with .zip method in cm7-r2 due to low cache partition. You can do it with other method from PC.
Yes, I think that you can restore, but the app will see different available space.

Depends what ROM though, sometimes if the ROM throws too much stuff in the sd-ext partition you can get quite bad performance in comparison to using the Data hboot. Just sayin'.
Cache partition size matters for ICS roms?
I'm on Data++ and I have about 100 MB free space for apps on /data (without sd-ext).
Would switching to Bravo Sense table (with 35 MB plus cache partition size) improve the performance on ICS based roms (like BCM or Sandvold's) or these roms do not use that partition anyway?
I've found that a 2Gb ext partition works well for me (using RSK rom). I'm using the Data++ Hboot.

I use cm7 r2 running Sandvolds ICS with dalvik & apps to ext4, runs very smooth and fast. Class 4 16GB SD, 1GB ext4.

Problem with creating partition on SD

Hey Guys!
I got problem with creating partition on SD card. I was following this instruction:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20397925&postcount=4
Everything was OK, but when creating operation started my computer went into hibernation mode (because of my battery, I got notebook). When I plugged in my charger and turn on computer, error message has shown. Operation was aborted. And then, when I started operation once more, I got this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Still and still.
Could I do something without formatting my SD?
Sorry I'm bothering you, guys, but Uncle Google can't help me
And sorry for my English,
thanks in advice
If you want to use a2sd, link2sd, s2e or any other method, you need to partition your SD card. Luckily, there is an easy method that worked for me.
Make sure you have clockworks recovery installed and boot your Gio into recovery. Go to Advanced> partition SD card> Choose partition size and thats it.
DONT use clockword mod to do the partition. I used it at first, and it created a ext3 partition instead, so simple to ext (same as a2sd) would not work. I so i had to repartition to ext4 using the same tutorial you did. As for the error, backup the SD contents to your computer, Format it, then partition it, then put the contents back. Thats what i did
Nevermind guys, I have broken my card. Had to format it. This topic can be closed
