Apps2SD+ installed, apps still installing on internal memory?

Hi, I've recently installed MIUI-Au on my Desire. Think everything went fine, but when I install apps now it still seems to install on my internal memory instead of ext3. Under SD card settings it tells me A2SD+ has a total space of 504mb and available space of 462mb and my internal memory only has 16.39mb left. Is there anything I have to enable to make the apps install on the ext3 partition instead?
THanks

I've read that already, still doesn't solve my problem though. I assume A2SD+ is working because it shows up on the SD card info and Quick System Info when I load it.. is that assumption wrong? Whenever I install an app, almost all the data is installed on internal memory and then I get the message memory is full while A2SD+ is almost completely empty.

What does quick system info say?
It would help if you post what it states in terms of internal, external, ext...
For me that has been the most reliable in terms of accuracy.
Mine
A2SD total 0.98gb Free 772mb
Int total 151mb Free 105mb
System 250mb Free 23.23mb

A2SD+ still does not install everything on the ext partition, that is why you can have the low memory message without having filled up your ext partition.
If you need more space look in to using data2sd or changing hboot.

As he says lol...look at my internal!
Thats why I asked for stats..almost completely empty may not mean empty

apps2d moves /data/app/ and dalvik cahe to sd ext
data2sd moves /data/app/ /data/data/ and the dalvik cache to sd ext

A2SD Total 504MB Free 462MB
Internal storage Total 148MB Free 15.34Mb
System Total 250MB Free 125MB
It just seemed a bit uneven IMO.

[Q] where is my memory???

Can ANYONE tell me why i supposed to have 147 mb of usable memory but i only installed like 28 meg of apps total and i dont have any memory left?

could be confusing storage space with ram? have you confirmed under storage-internal storage that you have no more memory available? are you using the stock rom?

im having this exact same issue with my internal storage. no apps installed and i only have 30mb or so on internal using 3rd sense... been trying for 2 days to get data2ext to work with no luck.
Which rom are you on?

This phone only has that much for app storage. A huge disappointment.
If you have root and a custom ROM, just do MTD partitions or apps2ext if you have an ext partition.

A2SD Insufficient Storage Problem

My Desire keeps saying 'Installation error, Insufficient storage available.'
I have oxygen 2.0.3 and have rooted and s-offed my phone.
aLogCat:
I/DefContainer(19162): Exception : java.io.IOException: No space left on device when copying file
E/DefContainer(19162): Couldn't copy file: /sdcard/.cache/downloadfile-2.apk
I/vending (18995): [9] MyPackageInstallObserver.packageInstalled(): Package install from content://downloads/my_downloads/87 failed: Insufficient storage available.
Titanium Backup:
Internal: 357 MB (120 MB free)
SD card: 15.6 GB (6.66 GB free)
SD card (a2sd): 239 MB (12.7 MB free)
I've tried clearing all the cache and installing but I can't seem to install anything. I have 120MB left in my internal, so how come I can't seem to install any more applications?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out!

I could be wrong since i'm a real newb. But don't these custom roms automatically install to sd on the ext partition? Could your desire be reading the space left to be only 12.7mb and ignoring the real internal space?

From what you have posted i would say you need to increase the size of your EXT partition

Anyway to make them make use of the internal space as well? I've always thought that A2SD uses both the internal and external space.

It does but then your relying on that 12meg to be accurate. If there's not enough space here then it won't let it install I should imagine

I think u have to activate the script by terminal emulater like how u do a2sd but I never used int2ext.

- Find out what is using your internal memory first. Install something like DiskUsage, enable root and browse your actual /data partition. It should be 147MB total size. It's probably filling up despite the script. This may explain the low memory warning
- How did you partition your sd card? Should be done with 4EXT recovery or gparted only, not clockworkmod or minitool
- Did you install the correct version of the script for your partition? I've only used it once on a different phone / ROM. I used in2ext4+ or something like that, suitable for an ext4 partition, seemed to work
You could repartition to an ext4 partition (slightly faster than ext3), and pick the version of the script which moves apps and dalvik cache to the sd-ext.

Why don't you try Beanstalk RC6 4.4.4 + mounts2sd? You will never have low mem issues.. specially if u move everything to ext4. The thing is you need a good sd card..
