Well, i got mine sd formating for like 15-20 minutes,still stuck.
After waiting,i removed battery to force a shutdown. Result : Lost the 512MB that would be partitioned.
Today i decided to try again.
Just tried it again, it took me like 2 minutes for it to complete.
But i'm stuck at bootscreen for like 10 minutes. Whats happening ?
I formated,and then i hit : Reboot on CMW Recovery.
Any Idea ? Anyone ? : )
I partitioned it because i was having "Not enough internal space memory" error.
And i have like,10 apps installed only,no game,only light apps.

First of all i guess that you have made a backup of the apps using Titanium backup. Before restoring the apps, just change the default install memory location of the Titanium backup to internal. Through this way the apps would be saved to the EXT4 partition you created!
If you finish process of partition succcesfully, after you install some applications, it install on sd card simply
If you are installing applications from market then its not needed to change the default memory location...but if you are restoring applications from titanium backup, you have to change the default memory location in the settings!

I need your help - Jacob - or danne_jo - or anyone else in the know...
I've been using Wildpuzzle since day one but have always failed to get apps2sd working. Due to my sdcard never getting an ext4 partition. Why - I havent the faintest clue?
I cleared all data + cache - and also formatted sd-ext on the 3rd try. Installed Wildpuzzle 8.0.6. from formatted no ext sd - Restarted. Changed sd-card to another formatted FAT32 no ext sd. Ran Rom Manager to Partition SD - tried EXT 512 / Swap 0 - and another try EXT 512 / Swap 64...both turning up the same result: On restart - Htc splash screen comes up - followed by the bootanimation looping again and again - and only thing that helps is my removing the battery - and going into recovery - clearing all once again. And Reflashing Wildpuzzle...which then works normally. But noway to get Apps2SD and thus OC kernel working.
My Touch Screen is ATMEL, if that makes any difference...
HELP?
Posted the same error yesterday and somebody told me that
you have to flash 0001 agin after partition SD Card
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
but after a long period of flashing and trying to get it work again I lost my mood, because I couldn't get it to work as easy as you. After the boot loop I ejected the battery and wiped it again, cleaned all caches, but when trying to get wildpuzzle again on the phone he told me that there is an error in line 15 with the restriction.
and everytime I tried to restore my old backup ( 2 different versions ) he told me always that the MD5 doesn't match. So after long trying and many different versions I got it again to work with an UK Recovery Backup and from that I got it back to my old version.
maybe I will try it today again and flash it after the partition and maybe it work. Would be nice if you could try it, because as I red in your post, it is easier for you to get back to old custom room.
would save me a lot of time and nerves
I did that. No luck w that either.. same result as before...

Hi, i am currently using Kyrillos Rom V 7.0 Non OC.
Yesterday,my phone battery drained to the end (not a problem until here).
When i arrived home i turned it on after charging for a while,but them,all my apps were gone. I can still see them at the Aplications Manager,but i cant "move to phone" (the box is hidden).
I got my SD card formated using a swap and a Ext4 partition so i can use Apps2SD+ and it was working fine for like 1 Month.
Also, my Market can't install any app anymore,since it shows "File Package is not Valid" message.
What i've tried :
1 - Setting / Storage / unmount - > mount Sd Card
2 - Recovery Mode -> Mount and Storage -> Mount Ext , Mount Sdcard , rebooted.
Nothing Worked,
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

Try to use Titanium Backup, install it from your pc!
I have the same thing every time I boot up. After my media scanner is finished it just doesn't show my apps. Only sometimes when I wait very long it shows them. So I try to keep my phone on as long as I can. But I can't install apps from the market either. I touch for example 'free' press accept and it just doesn't start downloading anything! But a reboot fixes the install problem most of the time for a while...
Btw what kinda sd card are you using? I have a 16gb class 2.
So I blame my problems to that.
I have an idea
Hey about Contacts and SMS backup use relavant apps. Contacts can be backed up on Sd card and copied to pc, I dont think sms backup needed you can let them go if they are important PM me to tell you a method. I hope you have root explorer. If no download it from a PC file sharing website and simply install it. Go to /-->data-->app Copy all apks of your installed apps to sd.
Now you wont lose your apps. Backup SD. I would recommend to use *2676*3855# and Hard Reset/ Factory Format your phone. Format SD after complete backup and re partition do all again, set up phone enjoy it again.

Try installing Disk Usage, there you can check what app is eating a lot of memory and you can delete it there in the app.

I agree, try to use Disk Usage, you can easily detect which folder from your SD card or the app that consumes much memory.
And I must say that when you are rooted that doesn't mean that your internal memory will always be free about 180+ mb UNLESS if you have partitioned your SD card and applied a2sd script.
NOTE: Please check if your current ROM supports a2sd script. Partitioning SD card will delete SD card data so be sure to make a backup first.

Thanks man, this really helped me. But I am not sure, A2SD is better than Link2SD? And installed another kernel (it's kinda generic, I dont even know its name ), does it interfere on A2SD support?

I can't be sure of that.
I can say a2sd is better. Everything is on external when you are using this one. I used Link2sd for about 3 months but still there are cases that i got run out of space in my internal memory so now I'll stick with a2sd
Yesterday I tried about 15 times, and my [email protected]#%ed pc booted, then I put Link2SD, and my phone have now around 65mb free internal space, when I have time I will try A2SD.
I've been experiencing the dreaded "Low Internal Memory" problems on my HD2 running a MIUI GB ROM.
I was told this was because the included A2SD, well, sucks. I was advised to use Data2EXT instead. Since I wanted to start with a clean slate anyway, I decided it was time to completely wipe my HD2 and install everything anew. This is what I did:
Wiped the HD2 with Task29 (using the HD2 Toolkit)
Installed ClockworkModRecovery v1.3 150MB (I wasn't sure I actually used the 150MB version when I initially installed CWM Recovery)
Cleared data/cache with CWM Recovery
Reformatted the 1GB sd-ext partition on my SD Card (using MiniTool Partition Wizard)
Installed ROM with CWM Recovery (from zip)
Installed A2SDKiller scripts (from zip)
Rebooted phone into MIUI, but did not install anything.
Rebooted into CWM Recovery and installed the Data2SD Installer.
Rebooted into MIUI again
It seemed everything was fine. If I looked at my memory usage, instead of only 210 MB of total storage I had previously, I now had almost 1GB. I setup my Google account and started to install some apps. Somewhere along the line one of the apps hung the phone so I rebooted it again.
But when it was done rebooting, much to my surprise all installed apps were gone. In fact, the phone was behaving like it was the first time it was started (asking me for my Google credentials again, etc). At first I thought this was perhaps due to the hung app, so I did all the above steps again (including wiping the phone).
Again I installed a few apps, and this time I rebooted the phone to check if all was OK now. It wasn't. Again the phone behaved like it was the first time I booted into the new ROM and all installed apps were gone. I've tried about 5 times now and every single time with the same results.
So what could be wrong here?
just a thought (i havent checked, you can do that) but what type of ext did you create? ext2? ext3? ext4? perhaps data2sd (you called it data2ext in the title, data2sd in the post, , ,which is it? they're probably different) doesnt play nice with whichever one you created?

I'm pretty sure they are the same (since took the installation procedure from this forum post and they call it both Data2Ext and Data2SD).

Check to see see if there's any script left from old method in system/etc/init.d
This is a complete guess but worth a try
EDIT: this is the script that the A2SD killer removes from system/etc/init.d
delete("/system/etc/init.d/40a2sd");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/03stuff2sd");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/10apps2sd");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/04apps2sd");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/01data2whatever");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/98zipalign");
delete("/system/etc/init.d/02cachedalvikcache");
So make sure that has been removed then try flash the new zip file

Yes, all those files have been deleted.
It seems to be working now. I wanted to test if changing the Ext3 partition to Ext2 would make any difference so I fired up MiniTool Partition Wizard again. I wiped the partition and formatted it as Ext2.
Or so I thought.
The partition still said it was Ext3. Then it hit me. I had forgotten that you actually have to "Apply" the changes, which I hadn't done before. So I clicked Apply and it wiped the partition and actually formatted it as Ext2.
I then redid the whole thing (install ROM & A2SDKiller scripts, reboot into ROM, reboot into CWM Recovery and installed Data2SD). And now it seems to be working fine.
Not sure which of the two actions on the Ext partition caused it to start working: the wipe or the change to Ext2.
I spoke too soon. I thought it was working since a reset didn't clear all my installed apps. But if I look at the total storage space, it's back to 216MB total. So it looks like Data2Ext isn't running...
*SIGH*
I'm just about to give up on Data2Ext. First of all, I thought I had figured out what was wrong. For some odd reason, whenever I tried to write to my 16GB microSD card on my computer using an SD adapter, it would crash every now and then. Also, partitioning through MiniTool Partition Wizard often resulted in a "Bad Disk" error. I tried this with 3 different 16GB microSD cards. All experienced the same problems when using an SD card adapter (it wasn't a broken SD adapter because I've tried several).
I then dug up an old external microSD USB card reader I had laying around. Using that, I was able to write to the microSD cards just fine and I didn't experience any problems partitioning either.
Speaking about partitioning, it took me a while to figure out that:
Partitioning through ClockWorkMod Recovery doesn't work properly. The FAT32 partition becomes incredibly slow, and the Ext partition is not recognized by Data2Ext
Ext3/Ext4 partitions don't work with Data2Ext. At least, not on my phone
Ext2 partitions only work if they are set as the primary partition
You must name the partition sd-ext or it will not work
Just a FYI for anyone finding this thread in the future.
Anyway, once I figured that out, I was finally able to get Data2Ext working. Sort of. Let me try to explain.
Previously after I had installed Data2Ext and setup some apps, a reboot of my phone would bring it back to a factory reset state. So all installed apps were gone, just like any settings I had altered. Oddly enough, if I looked at the sd-ext partition I could see the data was still there. It simply wasn't used by the phone. But after I had partitioned the sd-ext partition as Ext2, all was fine. A reboot didn't reset the phone back to factory settings.
So I happily reinstalled all my apps, restored my SMS as well as my WhatsApp backup and thought all was fine now. But I did notice the phone wasn't very stable. Every now and then it would become unresponsive for 10-20 seconds. Sometimes I got an error message that a certain app had become unresponsive and I was offered a choice to either shutdown the app or to wait. And sometimes, the phone would spontaneously reset itself.
Today the phone again became unresponsive. Oddly enough, long-pressing the power button did bring up the shutdown window. So I tapped "Shutdown". Next, the phone hung on "Shutting Down". It didn't come back to live. So I removed the battery lid and pressed the reset button.
After it had rebooted, I was greeted with a factory reset phone again. I was about to throw the phone through the window! But when I did another reboot, all my apps were back again as well as my settings. Except for the settings of my individual widgets. Those had all disappeared for some reason. Also, I got quite a few error messages that some apps had stopped unexpectedly. I rebooted again and again the phone behaved as if it were factory reset. But yet another reboot brought everything back...
I now suspect it has something to do with the phone not being able to mount sd-ext every now and then. Either way, my problems aren't solved yet so any tips are much appreciated.

I have similiar problem before, The ext partition always failed. Now I used Extended TWRP to create the ext partition, it is stable now.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2120297
I can't get Data2Ext to work. I'm either getting tons of force close errors, or it's not seeing the sd-ext partition at all. I tried with Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 partitions (Ext3 didn't seem to work at all). With or without a swap partition. Nothing worked.
I also tried Data2ExtV2 and even DataOnExt. The result was always a ton of force close errors and a very unstable phone.
So anyone any ideas? It sucks only having 200MB of internal storage.
Hmmmm... That's odd. I just wiped my phone again (Task29), reinstalled MAGLDR, CWM Recovery (150MB) and my ROM without Data2Ext or anything and I'm getting the same force close errors and it's telling me I don't have enough internal storage to install apps.
So apparently there's something else going on with my phone?

Actually, I found out it was because I used the wrong cache size this last time. So it's not the cause of all the other problems, but most certainly the cause of the problems this last time I flashed the ROM.
Ok, I've given up on Data2Ext. I can't get it to work. No matter what I try it's incredibly unstable and slow - if it works at all.
1. Make a backup of your SDCard.
2. Download EXTRecovery here.
3. Unzip it and place the 4EXTRecovery folder in the root of your SDCard.
4. Start MAGLDR, choose option 10, then 1, then 3 and select the folder (4EXT~), then boot from SD in the MAGLDR main menu.
5. In the 4EXTRecovery go to Advanced -> Partition SD Card -> Remove all partitions and start from scratch.
6. 1st sd-ext partition: 1024MB, skip 2nd sd-ext partition, SWAP partition is OPTIONAL, I recommend 256MB.
7. Press Yes and pick: "EXT4".
8. When it's finished, choose: "Print partitiontable" to check if it's actually there.
9. If it's there, go back to the main menu and press: "Install from SDCard".
10. Locate your ROM and install it.
Goodluck.
EDIT: Oh, I just read you've given up on it.. all this work for nothing, lol.
Ohwell, maybe I'm lucky and someone else stumbles upon this and can use it.
EDIT 2: Use DataOnEXT and have a /system size of about 285MB, 300-350MB if you have Bad Blocks!
EDIT 3: Try it with: "Jellybean 4.1.2" by Tytung, definitely works!
alright. i am new here btw. i dont know if someone has already posted this kind of problem on SGY. some were kinda too savvy when i try to relate my problem on other threads.
here it goes:
few months before, i rooted my SGY phone from gingerbread to jelly blast and i successfully did it well. then, i had partitioned my SGY's 8GB MMC. i successfully partitioned my mmc and got extra 1GB for internal memory so that i can install more apps. i had also managed to transfer apps with huge amount of datas to the 2nd partition - to free up space on the real internal memory. everything was perfect until...
i got my phone wet by accident - but not internally and it would not start no matter what. got it repaired by a tech, found out that the power amp was grounded. made some sortings and it was working again.
little did i know that there was a collateral damage - all settings has been reset. i lost my apps, my contacts, messages, and anything saved on the phone. but it's still rooted and runs jelly blast. the problem is that since i made a 2nd partition of my mmc, i cant get them back up again. when i try to go to link2sd>storage info>SD card 2nd Part. and it still shows used 312MB so the apps are possibly in it.
can someone please help me on how to get them back or restored? any advice would be very much appreciated. thanks. :angel:
tried to go on google play but wasn't of help.
I don't think so it is possible to restore from 2nd partition
But I have an idea don't know work or not
go to data folder by using root explorer or anything else
Then search for sd-ext or sd-ext2 and look, there is any apps present or not
If not then open link2sd and clear 2nd partition your memory will be free

Another idea:
Boot a Live Linux from your PC and mount your sd card, then c&p your content to another partition.
Did this on my old Smartphone with 2 Partitions fat32+ext4

Ey, thanks! I went to my File Explorer>Settings>Root Explorer. I found "data" folder > sdext2 and when i opened it - i saw all the apps i have installed and moved to the 2nd partition! hooray for that!!
i tried to test by clicking on one app, it then opened asking me to use package installer or app system installer. i ran package installer, got warning about installing unknown resources (though the apps came from google play).. so i enabled unknown resources. installed it. :fingers-crossed:
it worked - the app got restored!!! :laugh: is this the right thing to do or was there anything that should be done first? :highfive:
and other questions:
a. link2sd asked me what should be mounted on sd card. i remember from the time i began to partition - i chose ext3. but now on the sd card, when i got the data folder, it shows all my apps on sdext2 folder. which one should i mount? EXT2 or EXT3?
b. due to all this incident, whenever i turn my phone on - it keeps on telling me that the com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. how do i fix this?

Ey, thanks! I went to my File Explorer>Settings>Root Explorer. I found "data" folder > sdext2 and when i opened it - i saw all the apps i have installed and moved to the 2nd partition! hooray for that!!
i tried to test by clicking on one app, it then opened asking me to use package installer or app system installer. i ran package installer, got warning about installing unknown resources (though the apps came from google play).. so i enabled unknown resources. installed it. :fingers-crossed:
it worked - the app got restored!!! :laugh: is this the right thing to do or was there anything that should be done first? :highfive:
and other questions:
a. link2sd asked me what should be mounted on sd card. i remember from the time i began to partition - i chose ext3. but now on the sd card, when i got the data folder, it shows all my apps on sdext2 folder. which one should i mount? EXT2 or EXT3?
b. due to all this incident, whenever i turn my phone on - it keeps on telling me that the com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. how do i fix this?

i tried that successfully but unfortunately, it didnt work. i got additional error message: the process com.android.mms has stopped unexpectedly.
what could have been wrong?
i tried to copy the folder com.android.phone and com.android.mms from the system root to the sd card android folder but things are still the same. issue persists..
