App2sd question. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

Will loading a custom rom automatically allow app2sd to work. I have not noticed it listed as a feature in the description of any roms. Is there a way to get it working with stock room and being rooted? I have seen a script that swaps the internal storage for Sd but I am not sure I want to go that route.

Think you have to be on stock kernel for that feature to work.

There's a thread in the dev section that has a stock rom that boots from emmc used to update prl and what not. I haven't tried using it but it might be worth a shot to boot it and move your apps then boot your original rom. But like the post above I'm pretty sure u gotta be on stock kernel.

That's true, but you can also temp flash stock then flash and use agats kernel and it will work until you go to clockwork. Then that cycle begins again. He explains it in his thread.

[Q] After Root... why change the stock rom?

Any particular reason for this?
Some people wanna do their own mods rather than install a custom ROM.
Well, have have done installs for many custom roms, but this phone is just for my wife, so I just wanted to make sure there isn't any harm in rooting for additional apps etc. like titanium if she is just going to want stock. Do I have it right?

No, you don't have to change anything if you root it. Its all optional changes. You can just have root and use root apps, you don't have to change the system at all if you don't choose to.
But if she just wants stock... why are you rooting it in the first place?
lol because she's going to want more reliable ways to back up app data among other things and, TO ME, Titanium is the ONLY way to go.
Why change the stock ROM?
Because developers make some pretty great modifications to the UI, kernel, and such.
Make your phone reflect your personality, not the service provider's. (bleh)
After a while people might want to change, sometimes not, but if you already have it rooted it will be easier on you.

If all you want is a good backup, just make a nandroid and transfer a copy to your computer.
I know, but don't I have to root to do nandroid? That's one of the reasons I wanted to root to begin with.

Yes.
At this point, the potential for disaster while rooting is minimal as long as one follows all steps correctly.

Nope, no root required for nandroid.
Keep in mind though: a nandroid backup backs up your entire ROM as is. If you restore it you are back to where you were. TB backs up your apps, so you can restore them on the same ROM or on a different one.

Okay, so when the Jelly Bean ota comes through for Sprint, will it be okay to take it with the custom recovery I installed or not?

You will need to download it yourself (or move it from /cache to /sdcard) and then it will install with your custom recovery. It will not install over-the-air with a custom recovery.
I have a quasi related question. The Xoom got Jelly Bean recently, and even though I wiped my device and did a factory reset from recovery, all of my music I had put in the internal SD card was still there. Why wasn't all of the internal erased, and could I expect this when I install Jelly Bean on my wife's Nexus?

If you wipe data with CWM, it will NOT touch /sdcard.

Why?
And why is CWM the only custom recovery that doesn't?
Additionally, when ROM installations insist on CWM, why would they also have instructions to put the ROM zip on the external card if the internal is safe?

But the Xoom does. Are you saying that CWM is mostly popular with internal storage only devices?

That is not at all what I am saying.
This is the GNex forum. If you have questions about the Xoom, I suggest you ask in the Xoom forum.

I know where I am. It is only that you had been so helpful that in anticipation of Jelly Bean for the Galaxy Nexus, I was asking a general question about custom recoveries here because until now you had been especially helpful to me, and I was eager to give you even more thanks, but it appears I have wasted both of our times instead. I apologize. Good day.

I tried this exact mod a couple weeks ago & could not get it to work. It made my internal show up as both internal & external, and disable my SD card completely. I dunno what I did wrong, I followed the instructions exactly & I have a TW rom too.

Download and Flash perseus kernel, then flash mod again. It should work after that. It does not work on note2core or saber kernels. I only tested on those three.. And make sure you download the correct mod zip as there are different variants depending on the kernel you have and if your sd card is exformat or fat32. I also recommend a format of the sd card before doing all these to start fresh.
Best way is to do a full wipe, flash rom, flash radio, flash perseus kernel and lastly the mod all before the first boot.

International note II and all usa note II variants. Also on the GS III.

I noticed one of the biggest problems with storage is that apps that do save stuff to SD card were still saving to internal storage. For example Titanium Backup was set to save to storage card but was saving to an internal storage folder called "External Storage". That app has specific setting to move the backups which saved me over a GB of space. I'll try ExtSd2InternalSd next time I upgrade ROMs.

Just remember that your "internal" storage actually becomes your sdcard and your sd-external is your internal built in memory... so is reverse.
For example when you use your camera for the first time it will ask to storage on your external..but remember that your external is no longer that but rather your internal, so if you want pics saved on your new "internal" choose no. save to phone.

you can flash it after too...just make sure to wipe cache and dalvik. For the camera force closing just clear data and cache under applications.

Got my 64 gig class 10 sd card Monday, and clean flashed Jedi Master 7 with Perseus kernel then this mod and it works great! I have every app, game, emulator, GPS program installed and still have 40 gigs left. Phone runs awesome too. No more storage worries or making room for new apps. I'd recommend clean flashing, it seems like most people who have issues are not starting out fresh.

I already flashed the Jedi 8X and the perseus kernel and I have a few questions:
1. Is it too late to flash the ExtSd2InternalSd mod now?
2. Do I have to do all the steps you mentioned again?
3. I have the SD card formated to extFAT and have a few GB of mp3 files in it. Would those file be wiped after the mod?
4. What would happen if I flash a new ROM in the future? Would I lose all the data in the "internal memory" i.e. the physical MicroSD card?
Thanks

I already had the perseus kernel when I tried this. I guess I'll try it again though. I really wanna get this working. Thanks.
I could be wrong but I think the mid has to be installed after clean flash and before the initial reboot after the Rom has been flashed. I flashed Rom, kernel then the mod then reboot. No issues with this method.

[Q] Transfer APPS to SD

is there a way to change where apps are installed?
instead of being installed in internal memory it will be installed on sdcard
i read on other forums that APPS2SD does not work for our s3
Try this method. It may be a solution to your request.

[Q] Exists a fully working way to install apps on external memory?

I have a 32GB microSD installed in my phone and I'd install apps (such as games that need to download many gigabytes of data) on it instead in the "little" internal memory. I tried memory swap mod that swaps the internal with external memory but I have some issues...
Directory bind works very well on 4.1.2 but if your on a 4.2 rom you'll have to use folder mount. Both just move the data to your memory card rather than the app
