[HELP] APP2SD doesn't work in Desire HiApk V3.6 ROM

Hi guys,
yesterday I try to install a new ROM by djroobs team, the Desire HiApk ROM V3.6 (base CM7.0.0).
I found it very fast and stable, but unfortunately app2sd doesn't work!
I've partitioned the 16gb card in two; 512Mb ext4 and the remaining in fat32.
I've also tried to format the partitioned 512Mb in ext2 and ext3, always with Amon-RA Recovery 2.0.1, but the app link2sd (included in the ROM) return the error "Unable to create the script".
I have also tried ti install S2E (Simple to External) since the ROM is based on Cyanogen, but it doesn't work that way.
I noticed that in the settings of link2sd ext partition is unmounted
Someone has the same problem and can tell me how I can solve?
Thank you in advance who can help me!
P.S.: sorry for my bad english.
Marco.

Well as far as i can tell this is based on the official gingerbread sense rom and in no way on cyanogen mod?
But for your actual problem, i could not tell much from the app on the market, but it might require s-off, if it needs to place a script in the init.d folder. This might very well be your problem, and the reason the ext-partition is not mounted, is the lack of such a script, which mounts it on boot.
I would say the easy way is to remove the damn app and use a regular a2sd script instead.

Thanks for the replay!
Taking advantage of your kindness to ask you other two questions.
1) I download from the market a terminal emulator
2) I write this commands in the emulator:
su
a2sd check
a2sd reinstall
-reboot phone-
su
a2sd zipalign
a2sd cachesd
-reboot phone-
Is that correct? Obviously my phone is already s-off.

That probably won't work without the proper a2sd scripts in place(as far as i can tell this rom don't have any of those) Apparently it doesn't even use an init.d folder, so it is not very easy to run a custom script on boot.
That is probably because he meant for users to use the app, so i'll try to see how it works and report back, what might cause the problem. otherwise you can always edit the boot.img and make an init.d folder, where you can place an a2sd script.
edit: the app does indeed try to put a script in the init.d folder, which i cannot find on this rom, so it very likely wont work.(Please check if you have a folder called init.d in /system/etc/ and please check if this folder is mentioned in the bottom of /init.rc if it isn't, we will need to use a boot.img, which activates this folder)

MIUI no a2sd.. cannot read a2sd.mountpoint.

Hi!
I'm using MIUI XJ A2SD/A2SD+ 1.4.29 - 2.3 FINAL
my problem is that a2sd isn't working any more after flashing the new rom.. I used connectbot for making a2sd ready. the usual thing: su, a2sd zipaign and a2sd cachesd
but when i type in: a2sd zipalign 2 errors appear:
[X] No a2sd.swap environment variable found.
[X] Problem detected: Darktremor Apps2SD may not have ran during boot. Cannot read a2sd.mountpoint.
how can i solve it?

Instead of a2sd zipalign you can type:
su
a2sd reinstall
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Your Desire will restart. Then to move the dalvik-cache to ext type:
su
a2sd cachesd
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

[Q] Need help reverting a2sd+ to a2sd

I'm trying to move dalvik back to data partition by removing it from the init.d script. but for some reason after I reboot my ext partition is gone..
What am I doing wrong?

What ROM?
What Script?

Cyanogen's script

I assume with cyanogen's script you mean the a2sd script by darktremor because this comes with cyanogenmod (as far as I know). If you use darktremor's a2sd script, you can move dalvik-cache back to internal with the command
Code:
a2sd nocache
in terminal emulator.

It's not darktremor's script
* Cyanogen A2SD script tweaked by me, moves both Apps and Dalvik to EXT.
I understand that I need to modify the 40a2sd script in /system/etc/init.d. So I did, I removed all the dalvik-chche mentioning, pushed it back there while in recovery mode, reboot and no ext partition

just reflash the standard one in the nighty thread
that only move /data/app

I do it by this guide usually.

Had to re install the rom with the modded 40a2sd file, worked like a charm afterwards. Thanks for the help!

Hello,
Could you tell me the most efficient mod for cyanogen rom 7.2 ?
Thank you in advance

[Q] a2sd ?

Noob question. I'm currently running Express 3.4.1. It supports a2sd but when i check my internal storage it keeps going up after every app install. I did partition my sd card and can check it many different ways. SO what gives?

You can go into a terminal program, run:
su
a2sd check
a2sd reinstall
and that will move all your apps to the SD Card

This is interesting. Version 2.7.5.2, which is older. The check indicates that apps are going to sd. But when I try to to do the reinstall I get an error, something about a2sd not running on boot.

I flashed the latest a2sd in recovery and now it seems to be working.
My final question for a while
When I load a ROM I also need flash the lasted DT s2sd too?

Yes, you need to flash the script again for a new rom.

Even when it says it's baked into the ROM, I still flash A2SD in the same recovery session as the ROM

Once u flashed the a2sd zip file open your emulator and do the following comands
su
a2sd cachesd
Phone well reboot
Now erase the emulator and re download because it well stop working after u run the command but re download it and open it again now type the next set of commands
su
a2sd datasd
Phone well reboot
And thats it u should have all the free memory you need just make sure u have your sd partioned before doing this or it wont work

i hope im right, but i would assume that its thee same as with any rom... i used dt a2sd on sense and my current CIUI rom, which is a mix between CM and MIUI. here is a link
http://www.darktremor.info/files/a2sd/dtapps2sd-2.7.5.3-beta04-signed.zip
flash this from the sd card in recovery.... then dl a terminal emulator and enter the following commands:
su [ENTER]
a2sd reinstall [ENTER]
you can also do the following to move cache to sd to free up more space if needed:
a2sd cachesd [ENTER]
hope this helps

Well put. That'll do it.

Thanks. I figured it out, just seemed to be bootlooping because it rebooted about 8 times, but it worked out. Thanks though
