Apps2SD - How to use? - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

According to the How I rooted... thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1438212 its possible that the Apps2SD works with ManualNooter 5.1.24 (which i used). However, I cant see how to move apps to SD.
On the Cyanogenmod wiki (i know this isnt Cyanogenmod if im just Nooting my Nook), it says "the user can force any non-protected app to be installed to the SD card by going to Settings » Applications » Manage applications » All » [application name] » Move to SD card." (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Apps2SD) How do I do this from the regular nooted Nook settings?
I have also read "You must be running Dalingrin’s OC kernel to be able to use Apps2sd. " but i'm not sure how to proceed from there.

Hay i have same root . I did it this way:1
1. Go to Rom Manager and choose to partition SD card. if it promts to install clockworkmod recovery press ok or agree.
2. wait and watch the strip on the top of display going 100%.
3. prepare sd card that will be erased during partitioning. backup ur data first to pc or somewhere!
4. In rom manager press partition sd card, when it asks about sizes choose default or what you want.
5. wait while it reboots , partition sd card then reboots again
6. install for example angry birds.
7. go to the app list screen
8. press menu softbutton (that 3 lines button on the bottom of screen)
9. choose manage apps
10. go to "downloaded" and click angry birds
11. press move to sd card and wait.
do same with other apps . some might not work but its cause the maker of the app not the system i guess.
hope i helped.
ENJOY

[HOWTO] Steps to move applications to SD

Hi All,
After rooted the device using SuperOneCLick v1.6.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=803682
I installed the Move2SD enabled and managed to move the installed application to SD card.
Steps:
- Root your S5830
- Installed Move2SD enabled
- Launch Move2SD enabled and set the install path to 'External'
- Goto Settings > Applications > Manage applications to move those applciation that you want to move to SD card.
i have tested this method with my s5830 and it works...
How about using an ext3 partition for the phone to use upon boot? Anyone tried Darktremor's app2sd?
I tried with my Galaxy Ace, but after I set Move2SD I'm not allowed whether to move apps to my SD card or to do something different from uninstall the apps as all the options are disabled in the "Manage applications" panel !
Any idea of what I got wrong?

I have rooted and installed Move2SD enabler. But, when I checked external & wanted to apply it, it said that "Sorry, unable to change the default install location". How to solve this problem?
Is the problem only on my Galaxy Ace S5830 or this is the software problem? Could you help me?

Yes those above methods aren't quite helpful. Try Link2SD, it'll surely free your internal storage as it shifts the entire app data as well as library files and dalvik cache to SD. I use the same. =)
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA Premium App
Thank you, it work
I thought SG Ace already had app2sd..(enable by Froyo). Because after I installed any games.. I just use setting inside SETINGS/APPLICATION/MANAGE APPLICATIONS and move to SD..
so what is the major different about Link2sd and Move2SD?
The Froyo way, Apps2SD or Move2SD Enabler still store the dex and library files needed for the application to run, on the internal storage. You will see your /data/dalvik-cache takes up the most space because of this. Whereas in Link2SD method, all of these files are physically stored on your SD card on a second partition which is mounted at boot. They are simply symbolic linked with the original locations.

Sadly Link2SD doesn't work on 2.3.3. There's an unresolved bug / uncompatibility issue and I don't know if/when the developer will come up.
I heard so, that's why I'm not upgrading to Gingerbread yet.
i've tried move2sd, first it work great but then i got this 'unable to install to sd' error when ever i tried to install apps. i have to unmount my sd card then i can install the apps, quite annoying to me, so i formatted my sd card and uninstall move2sd and the error is gone....
Well done !!
It works !! almost all the 3rd party applications run now from SD !
SAVE ME 30 MEGA pure rom memory AND SURVIVE MY GOOD HEALTHY !
Any help how to deal with all the provider rubbish and stinky applications to throw away from phone or moving into the the SD ?
THANK AGAIN

you can try simple2ext but this only works for CM roms. A caveat however. Most, if not all CM roms ported to the SGA are still at RC1 and not final yet. There is a bug which causes the phone to restart when market attempts to install a newly downloaded app. Appears to be CM related.
So you can choose to wait for the devs here to port CM7.1 final for SGA and then try your luck.

Tutorial on partitioning SD Card and Install app on SD Card

Hi guys I was searching for a guide for installing and running app from SD card on my X8. Even though the search was a little bit tough and many methods were not working and some were confusing finally I managed to attain my goal. I am writing this tutorial to help those who are searching for the same.
First of all let me say I am not a expert in these type of tweak.
I am just sharing the method which worked on my phone.
Mine is Xperia X8 with "2.1 OS". "Rooted and Xrecovery installed"
Phone must be rooted and Xrecover must be installed else dont waste your time reading the things below.
"First of all please do backup your card"
The softwares which I used are the following:
1)MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition v6.0 (This is free edition. It can be downloaded from their site)
2)apps2sd.zip ( attached below)
3)enableswap2_2a.zip ( attached below )
4)Link2SD ( Can be downloaded free from market)
First download and install Mini Tool Partition Wizard.
Connect your phone to your computer.
Run the partition wizard and you will see all the disks connected to your computer in it (Including your hard disk, memory card, etc)
Now right click on the picture that shows the space in your memory card and choose delete.
Now again right click in the same area as did in the previous step but this time choose create.
Choose it as primary partition with fat32 file system. Also mention the space you required for your memory card use ( This is the space that will be available for you to store your data not app).
Now Click ok.
Now you will see a new partition is formed in the image for your memory card. Now right click in the area where unallocated memory is shown and choose create. Some message will pop up showing "windows will not reg...or something like that" just press ok. As in the earlier case choose primary partition, fat 32 file type and space required. The space in this partition will be the space in SD card that will be used to save your applications. Make sure that 50 to 100 MB of space is left over. Now proceed as before and complete the second partition.
Now right click in the remaining space that is left over and click create. As in previous case, just click ok when the warning message pop out. Now choose primary type but in the option for fat32 we must choose linux swap and give all the remaining space.
Now press apply in top left portion of the software and wait till it complete its work.
Once this is done close Partition wizard and go to my computer and copy the files apps2sd.zip and enableswap2_2a.zip to the new partition which is visible there (Your memory card).
Now disconnect your phone. "Dont try to access your memory card now", just restart your phone and go to Xrecovery.
In Xrecover go to "partition" option and click on "mount sd card".
No go to main menu and select install from custom zip.
Now choose both the files "apps2sd.zip and enableswap2_2a.zip" one at a time.
Once this is done you must reboot your phone.
Now open the software link2sd.
It will ask for the file type of your new partition. Give it as fat32 and press ok.
That is it! you are done.
Now choose the software that must be transfered to SD card and press the create link button -> press ok.
Please dont try to transfer the system applications to your memory card!!!!
If you wand new application to be automaticaly installed in sd choose the option for the same from the settings of link2sd (Auto link in the settings window)
Hope this will help someone. Thank you for reading my thread.
"Do these things at your own risk I wont be responsible for any problem with your phone"
Hmmmmm
You say you've got 2.1 Android on the Xperia right?
yes..The OS that came in build.
Oh kwlll I'll give it a go
Hi
Thanx for the tutorial

i just used 75% and 25%. coz i think, 500mb is enough for app2sd.
hay..
i have a question, can we realy enable swap?
i think that kernel we are using doesn't support it..

[Q] How to root 1.2 NC?

So I just got a refurbished Nook Color with stock v1.2 already on it.
The ManualNooter 4.6.16 says that I need CWM 3 already installed to use it, probably assuming I already had it installed and that I updated my Nook to 1.2.
I looked at a guide to installing clockwork and it said to use the ClockworkMod app to install it.
I couldn't install that app that without root/market access, right?
So I'm a little lost as to what I need to do to get CWM 3 on the EMMC of my NC.
I suppose one way would be reverting the software to 1.1. How do I do that?
The Barnes & Noble website just says to go to the settings and get the OVA update of 1.2. No help there. All the threads I looked at link to the B&N website when they are providing "how to update" help.
Thanks in advance for the help...

You need to make a bootable ClockWorkMod card, just follow the directions below.
1. Download image file found HERE
2. If you are running any version of windows on your computer, then you will need Win32 Imager
3. If you are running windows, use the win32 image writer to write the image downloaded in step 1 to a blank micro SD card.
4. If you are using Linux, then you would use this script to write the image
Code:
dd if=<image name>.img of=/dev/<sdcard> bs=1M
5. Once the card has been created, just copy the MN 4.6.16 zip file to the root of the SD card that you just created.
6. Turn off your NC, and then insert the bootable CWM SD card into the NC
7. Turn on your NC, it will boot into CWM
8. Select the option “install zip from sdcard”
9. Then select “choose zip from sdcard”
10. Find and select the MN zip file and flash it.
11. Once it has flashed, just remove the SD card, and select “reboot system now”
12. You now have a rooted NC, just follow directions 9-13 from the MN thread and you are done.
If you run into any problems along the way, or need me to clarify anything, just ask.
if you are running Phiremod 6.3 option from the sd card which already has Clockwork on it because i had to enter into CWR to update it from 6.1-6.3 can i run the MN from it or would i need to start fresh? also is it really better to run from the sd card or from the emmc( internal memory )? i have heard mixed opinions on it but have been thinking if it is anything like modding the HTC HD2 phone i use it was better to run off internal memory over running from the sd card for battery life and overall performance.. any answers would be greatly appreciated..

[Q] A Few Problems.

so i have cm 7.3.0-encore installed and
1) i cant get the android apps to install
2)cm mod( rom manager 4.2.0.2 clockwork mod 3.2.0.1) will not let me updgrade to premium
when i try to download rom it tells me i must upgrade rom manager to latest version and when i press ok i get another box that says "the application ROM Manager process com.koushikdutta.rommanager) has stopped unexpectedly please try again" and when i press ok i get sent bact to the home screen.
3)when i try to reboot into recovery,1) with the sd card in,i get booted to the main cyanogen mod home screen
4) and when i try to install gapps i go into the recovery,/install zip from sd card/choose zip from sd card/confirm install/when it says install complete,i exit out(reboot system now)it goes back to the main nook color screen so i have to power the nook off and back on so it can boot into cm. once back in cm,i dont have any market.
Oh and my software version is 1.2.0
PLEASE HELP!!
As much as I or we want to help you, we are completely lack of info.
Please provide some basic info about your system and what you are trying to do.
1. Where did you get cm7.3.0?
2. On your very last sentence, 1.2.0. What is that?
3. How have you run "which ROM"? from eMMC or uSD?
Those info is a good start to get more help.

i hvae to pull up the site i got the mod from (i believe it was the cyanogen forum,ill get back to you on that)
2 1.2.0 is the stock nook firmware.(i believe they are up to 1.4 now)
3 i have no idea what your talking about.(im hoping your asking wether im running from internal or sd card. if that is the case,im running from the sd card
OK... to help you there are several things we must know... since answers to each can influence the method we need to get things working as they should:
1. Which method did you use to setup your SD? i.e. verygreen's SASD, racks11479 or another method.
2. Which ROM are you having issues with? i.e. CM7 on SD, Stock 1.2 on eMMC
3. What "android apps" are you having issues with? i.e. google apps (gApps) or another specific "android" app... since they are ALL android apps.
If you used verygreen's SASD then you CANNOT use the stanard ROM manager and CWM to install gApps... you have probably screwed up your stock system and installed gApps there... not that it will work... but you are now no longer "stock"
If you can answer these questions and elaborate as to exactly what you have done, and are trying to accomplish, we can provide informed suggestions to you... otherwise we can flood this thread with a TON of solutions that will EVENTUALLY work... but waste lot of time and cause you much frustration along the way.

First off, you are running CM7.0.3, NOT 7.3 since it is not exist.
Secondly, I start following this post of yours. Pls note, whatever you did or have done described in your very first post were totally screw. Don't know who show you that.
Anyway,
Let's put it this way.
1. Your device is NC (NOOKColor)
2. Your NC is running stock ROM version 1.2.0 on eMMC.
3. You want to run CM7.0.3 on external uSD card.
4. You have problem getting Android apps.
Right? OK
1) got a sandisk 16gb micro sd card and fomatted it to fat 32. => good
2) used win image to burn generic sd card image to the sd card.
Ans: I strongly suggest you getting the Win32DiskImager since a lot of members reported having issue with WinImage.
3) once burned, i put cm7.3.0 encore zip file in the root of the sd card.
Again. It is CM7.0.3.
Assume after successfully done creating a bootable uSD using Win32Diskimager, put your cm7.0.3 (or suggesting using CM7.2-RC KANG) into the root folder, where you see those mlo, ramdisk, ... file. It should only 4 files there at this time.
4) put sd card in nook => correct
5) let the install run => it should
6 - after successfully install, it will automatically delete the cm7.0.3 zip file then shutdown.
7 - remove the uSD, put back into PC, download and copy GApps and put it the root folder, same place where you just put the ROM before.
Link: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Latest_Version
Note: rolling all the way down and select one for CM7, not CM9
8 - remove the uSD off PC, put it back into the NC, power it up
9 - let it boot into CM7 first, do connect to your wifi at this point is a good choice, then reboot and choose reboot into recovery using the menu.
10 - after it boots back into recovery, it will install the GApps now and shutdown again.
11 - reboot and start using.
NOTE: the way I show you above is the easiest way. There are several ways that are so good and too convinience but it's far more advance for newbie. When you get used to the NC, you will find out more.

Note: rolling all the way down and select one for CM7, not CM9
8 - remove the uSD off PC, put it back into the NC, power it up
9 - let it boot into CM7 first, do connect to your wifi at this point is a good choice, then reboot and choose reboot into recovery using the menu.
10 - after it boots back into recovery, it will install the GApps now and shutdown again.
11 - reboot and start using.
NOTE: the way I show you above is the easiest way. There are several ways that are so good and too convinience but it's far more advance for newbie. When you get used to the NC, you will find out more.

Did I just said whatever you did or have done, described on your very first post were screw up?
Why would you do that?
You follow to step 10, you are very close to get it up and running then you continue to do the wrong way. That's why you can't get your NC work.
On which instruction you got that shows you doing the "went down to "install zip from sd card,choose zip from sd card" when you are running CM7 from uSD?
My suggestion, start over again, go slow.
Since using the uSD, why not using the stable CM7.1 or CM7.2 KANG? Get rid of the 7.0.3

Tried installing go launcher, insufficient space, their reply... where do I find...

Hi there,
used to use go launcher ex as my home thingy, but then it said there was an update but when I updated it there was a message that said insufficient space or memory and it then uninstalled the old version of the go launcher app... now it wont install at all again... I did rate it 1 star for this (what a freaking hassle, why wont these things just work... sigh... yes its been one of those weeks when nothing seems to work as it should... sigh) and they did reply saying "Dear Sir or Madam,I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, please move the apps which do not need to install in the phone memory to the SD card,and try again.Thanks." now do they mean theres a folder where the apps I have installed have been downloaded to before installing and I should move these apk(right?) files to my sd card or is it something else... in the mean time off to find out how to clear the cache and stuff... thanks for any info...
No. What they are telling u is that in ur Internal SD dont have enough space for more apps. U will have to go then:
1. Menu Apps - Settings - More - Application Manager
2. Second Tab (SD Card)
3. All this apps can be moved to the SD CARD (U will see them all unticked)
4. Select first app there and click a button called "Move to SD Card"
5. Go back
6. U will see this app now ticked
7. Continue with the rest same process till all them will be ticked
8. Try to install again GO Launcher
9. I hope it works for ya. Enjoy :highfive:
