Link2sd is working fine on my phone, except it can't create the mount scripts because my system partition is nand-locked/S-ON. (Using HTC Desire + CyanogenMod). I can write to the system partition in recovery mode, so what are the scripts link2sd tries to create? If I know that I can create them manually while in recovery.
Specifically, what is the content of the scripts link2sd creates?

How to use link2sd on micromax a25 I tried all the steps properly but while partioning my sd card og 16gb was not formatted......I tried link2sd but it says the app is linked but of no use it take same the phone memory as it was...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a problem on my device, every time I rerun Link2sd always to Re-Mount my 2nd SD but if I choose OK (not Restart) my 2nd SD mounted, and when I restart my device and running link2sd again, this application take it back to re-Mount again. I want to ask for that problem. What should I do to make that application become automount.
Note:
1. I use Samsung Galaxy Grand, OS JB4.2
2. I have been format my 2nd SD in ext2,ext3,ext4,fat32 and Now, I use ext4 but no change.
i'm planning to upgrade my sd card from 16-32gb, i'm using a link2sd with 1gb partition. i wan't to copy all my files from 16gb but i can't access the partition files of sd card, how to access that file and how to move it to a new sd card with a partition also..
View 6 Replies View RelatedWas wondering, if I partitioned my SD card, will Link2SD move my App Data, not like the game app data, but like the data stored in Applications, like Facebook.
Will this also be moved? Or will it stay hogging my Internal Memory?
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Victory LTE and I'm having trouble with Link2SD. I've got a 32GB SD card with a 1.5GB partition, and a 30 GB (or thereabouts) partition. I've verified in SuperSU that Link2SD has root access. But when I start up Link2SD, first I get this toast:
"Link2sd has been granted superuser permissions for an interactive shell." ...ok, that sounds good ...
Then a dialog:
"Select the file system of your sd card's second partition", where I select the Fat32/Fat16 option.
Then I get this dialog:
"Link2SD could not obtain root access.
If you have root access make sure you respond 'Allow' or 'Grant' to the superuser request ."
So what's up with this?
I have a Acer Liquid Metal on 2.3.6. I have a custom ROM T&L. It came preinstalled with Link2SD. I like to try lots of apps and this problem seems to be haunting me. I reset my phone on the 26th Dec as it was so annoying. I think I have set up Link2SD correctly. I have a 4gb SD with 1gb as ext2.
If I have Link2SD, why do I still have a problem with low internal storage?? I have had to remove some app's but the internal storage always gets lower.
Have I set Link2SD up correctly?
Currently I have an HTC Explorer on the stock ROM with stock kernel, and it is rooted and I use link2SD to move all my apps to my SD card. However, this method does not move the application data. I would like to install a new apps2SD script that will move app data as well as apps, as I am running out of space due to the data.
The problem I am facing is that with link2SD, I am using a FAT32 partition (my current stock kernel does not support ext partitions). Almost all my apps are on this FAT32 partition. I believe if I switch to a different script, I must use an ext partition. I think I will need to install a custom kernel that supports ext partitions (and init.d scripts?) and create a new ext partition.
My questions are these:
1. Will installing a new kernel be enough without installing a new ROM? (If so, any Explorer that adds ext & init.d support? Preferably as few other features as possible, I'd like to stick reasonably close to stock).
2. How can I move all my existing apps from the FAT32 partition to the ext partition, and also move all the data currently on internal storage to the ext partition, without losing anything? (If I back everything up with Titanium Backup, make the switch, and then restore the backup once the script is installed, will that work? If so, do I need to do a wipe at any point?).
3. Which apps2SD script should I use? I have read about several, and have no idea which is best.
4. How do I actually make the switch? Do I uninstall link2SD, remove the FAT32 partition and replace it with an ext2 partition, install the new script in recovery, then boot up? Or would that cause problems with the remnant symlinks made by link2SD? Do I need to do a wipe at some point?
I've just used V6SC script for a few days and It's great. Everything is good except Link2SD. After install V6SC, Link2SD can't relink at boot. I tried uninstall V6SC and then Link2SD continous working at boot.I'm using Gionne Pionner 3G with 2.3 OS (it almost likes Micromax A52).

If your rooted it's as easy as putting it in the /data/local folder!
Well there is a /data folder on my Nexus and it's empty. If I try to make a new folder it says "cannot create new folder" in File Explorer that came with CM6.1. Astro greys out the create folder button. What am I missing? Also I saw that you can ADB push it. WTF does that mean? I know how to do some fastboot stuff, is it the same? Reboot the phone with the USB connected and run commands on my PC?
We all talk about the issues with the signed boot loader and not being able to create roms. Is anyone good even working on this? I haven't seem any Dev's even on here discussing plans. Are we all waiting around for nothing or is it being worked on?
View 13 Replies View RelatedI try to understand android boot sequence on my JB (under CM10). I found some docs and there should be specific partitions (boot, recovery, system, cache, data).
My understanding of the boot sequence is now:
A) normal boot:
1) Power ON ->
2) bootloader ->
3) boot-partition where i flashed the kernel aka boot.img ->
4a) system-partition with the OS (libs, UI, etc) where i unpacked over CWM my customROM.zip ->
4b) data-partition, where i unpacked google-apps.zip and installed all the apps ->
4c) cache-partition with user data
B) recovery boot (adb reboot recovery):
1) Power ON ->
2) bootloader ->
3) recovery-partition with CWM where i may unpack all the .zip stuff to proper partitions, or restore from sdcard, etc.
Is this correct? I wonder, because i didn't installed CWM into recovery-partition. It cames from install of CM10 (fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img), so it must be in boot-partition and not in recovery?
So, next confusion: i looked up to /proc/mtd and i don't see neither boot nor recovery partition here:
Quote:
# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 19000000 00040000 "system"
mtd1: 00600000 00040000 "appslog"
mtd2: 06580000 00040000 "cache"
mtd3: 1a400000 00040000 "userdata"
I did a backup with CWM and loocked the data. There aren't boot, and recovery backups:

So, i think i didn't understand the boot sequence and partition schema corectly.
I am trying to do some low level performance testing related to device processor cores through adb which I feel it is affected by Android background services and system stuff.
As I know that the Android boot sequence stages are as follow:
1.Execute Boot ROM code.
2.Execute the boot loader.
3.Load the Linux kernel.
4.Launch Zygote, which initializes the Dalvik VM.
5.System server which loads the Android system.
So my question is how can I interrupt this sequence to force it stop on stage 3 to load Linux kernel. This can implement my intermediary performance testings before loading again Android system.
Does Fastboot or Clockworkmod recovery can load my device to a kind of Linux kernel?
I have used link2sd to link all my apps to my sd card. But link2sd doesn't move the data, it only moves apk and cache and library files. I have asphalt 7 with a data of about 1 gb, and I can use Gl to sd to move the data.
But on Gl to sd download page it is said that it will interfere with other mount scripts and all that. My question : is it safe to use Gl to sd and link2sd side by side, or will it cause any problems???
Instead of seeing the boring old Android logo or my service provider's logo, I'd love to see the standard text-based Linux boot screen that shows the status of all the hardware and configuration info as my phone boots. My current phone is an HTC EVO 3D running Cool ICS with Sense 3.6 and Revolutionary CWM.

I went to reboot my Droid because it was lagging a little and when it came back on it go stuck at the Cyanogen boot screen. I pulled the battery, put it back in and held the X to boot in recovery and my recovery won't come up either. It just skips right to the Motorola M and if it doesn't get stuck there it goes back to the Cyanogen screen.
I haven't made any changes to the phone at all so I am completely puzzled on why this is happening. I obviously can't take it back to Verizon since its rooted so if there is a way to fix this I really want to because I love my phone and my wife will kill me if it is screwed up.
How easy is it to make an application that's just a wrapper around the browser? Can the Android OS boot directly into that application so that only a certain application launches after boot. I'm building a client some custom software and I'd prefer to use one of those Archos 5 MIDs than a Linux netbook.

Before going into the overclock procedure i decided to do the the RCMIX Evo 3d kernel v. 2.2.3 first so i would have better results when done with the overclock procedure.I boot-up the kernel through the recovery mode on the phone butit failed to load so i just rebooted. After that my wifi and 4g stopped working. So i downloaded an app on the market called "flash image GUI" which lets me flash the kernels through the app. I flashed the RCMIX kernel and rebooted and now im stuck ima boot loop. I COULD just go back and back up to my old rom and settings etc but the problem is i dintmake any kind of back up or recovery i think.
