Partitioning the SD Card? [HELP] - XPERIA X8 General

Hi guys!
I'm getting crazy....I'm using MiniCM7-2.1.9 + nAa kernel v11 on my X8.
But if i try to create ext4 and swap partitions on the SD card....android tell me: "it's possible to remove the SD card" and it won't mount it!
I have created: -1.4 GB partition (FAT32) (Primary)
-0.5 GB partition (EXT4) (Primary)
-70 MB partition (SWAP) (Primary)
Why it won't work?
How I can fix it?

Well, since you SD card is 2GB, try FAT instead FAT32. Partition and reboot. I have the same error, but one reboot solves.

Or make partitions on pc...have a lot off free programs for that

OK,tnx.
I've found another easy way, in CMW>ADVANCED>PARTITION SD CARD.
It seems work without errors, but I have a question, how i can install apps on the ext partition now?
I've in cyanogen Settings:
Application>Allow Application moving (enabled)
Application>Install Location (what should I select? automatic, external or internal?)
Performance>A2SD (ext) Settings> A2SD mode selected (is it correct?)

Or make partitions on pc,its easy

Hye, it wont work on minicm....you have to flash GDX first....dont reboot....just mount sd, data, cache, and system, after that make ur partition....done. then you flash back minicm...just try this first ok....gud luck

Move all apps to sd and set as default?

Hey guys how do you move ALL apps and data to your sd card so when I flash roms (theres a new update everyday it gets too hard) I dont lose my progress in apps and I dont have to reinstall they are already there, is it possible to do this?
Also can you set sd card as default so new apps you install automatically go there.
It would be nice if I could partition just like 1 gb of my SD card just for apps!
Ive searched a few threads and stuff trying to gather information but none of them really helped alot so sorry if this has been answered!

RCmix3D at the moment, thinking about flashing Honey sense hd for a while!
I just want to make a partition of about 700mb onto the SD and move ALL my apps to it so I dont lose my progress and I dont have to worry about them when I flash roms!
thanks in advance!
Hello,
I'm unsure of any batch command to send all existing apps to SD so you may have to go to Settings> Applications> Manage Apps and move each one individually.
To change default app install location, use the following command either through ADB or in a terminal emulator:
pm setInstallLocation 2 //for SD card
pm setInstallLocation 0 //for phone internal memory
You'll find after setting the install location to SD, you'll notice that more apps can be moved to the SD card manually instead of just being greyed-out. However, be careful though - personally, I wouldn't move the following to SD since they've affected performance:
- apps which use a widget on your home screen (music players, aggregators)
- apps which explicitly interact with the system (e.g. task managers, autokiller, autostarts)
- Google apps
Hope this helps.
Backup all user apps in batch mode using titanium backup pro. Saves to sdcard backup folder.
Or
Partition sdcard to ext3 or 4, 0 swap, and use a a2sd+ patch (if your ROM supports it). Backup data on the fat32 partition first, as it may get wiped when the partition is split to make the ext partition. All user apps and associated dalvik will be moved to the ext partition on boot. Just make sure the ext partition is not wiped / formatted prior to flashing ROM. Use pc software such as gparted or mini partition tool free. Been a few phones bricked using the wrong cwm version to partition.
But, if were me, just use Titanium Backup Pro.

Gparted wouldnt find my phone when plugged in when I tried.
Also when you just move to SD through settings>application, it doesnt move the whole app only half and when you install a new rom they arnt there
Gparted is Linux, mini partition tool for Windows.
A2sd+ moves apps to ext partition, not fat32 partition your referring to. A2sd or apps to SD move only to fat32 partition.
There's the difference between a2sd+ & a2sd.

So to move the apps COMPLETELY on to the SD so they are there when you install a new rom and stuff, I partition my sd card in Ext 3/4 and then use a2sd+ to move them over right?
I'm on LeeDrOiD, and don't bother with the patch anymore.
But the method I used was, setup ext partition, flash ROM followed immediately by the a2sd+ patch for 1gb ext, then reboot. First boot will take a while.
Is useful if you stick to the same ROM, ...... as long as you don't wipe the ext partition before each update / build flash, or the ROM doesn't have a inbuilt script that wipes the ext. If that happened, you'd lose the apps and their dalvik cache, although the dalvik should be wiped anyway.
Edit: important, Forgot to mention, move all apps to "internal" memory prior. A2sd+ will take care of it on boot / flash and move all to ext. Any other app DL, just move to internal, and it'll be moved auto next boot.

I got the partition set up and I installed the patch and the reboot took ages but how do I know if there on SD, I dont think they are because when I click on the app some still say move to sd?

Open titanium backup, the first page that opens "overview", look down the bottom, will say something like;
Rom
Internal
Sdcard
A2sd+
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
ok it says sd card (A2sd) 575mb 60.4 free, so I think that means the apps are on there, so if I wipe my phone the apps will stay right?
It will always say move to SD if installed in any other place. But the SD it refers to is the fat32 partition, not your ext. A2sd+ will take care of it and move all new apps to ext on boot, as long as you install to internal memory first.
After some market updates of apps installed to ext , you may have to move to internal and reboot to ensure they're on the ext

Maybe a slightly bigger partition would have been better.
The apps should stay, as long as the ext is not wiped / formatted.
If apps not recognised in market, clear market cache, boot cwm, clear dalvik, boot, use titanium backup pro to restore market link if needed.

I did the biggest one possible in Rom manager
Alright thanks for all your help mate!
Maybe your version, I have not done it since 1gb using cwm 2.5.1.3. But some newer versions had bricked phones. ROM manager is just an interface for cwm, so that's why its best to do it through pc. Should recognise the card through a sdcard adaptor

[Q] Move apps from sd-ext to NAND, then repartition SD card

Hi guys,
I've installed a CM7 ROM then installed S2E, then flashed an AOSP build to replace it. When I try to use S2E to move the apps back to NAND from sd-ext, it shows up in NAND in the first couple of boots, but later on goes back to sd-ext without S2E doing the job. I kinda figured that it's built into the ROM to move the apps to sd-ext.
What would be the safest way to move the apps from sd-ext back to /data/app, and then repartition my SD card into a single partition and use its whole storage capacity?
Thanks in advance!

try link2sd in the market,it's free,but once you've moved all u want to,boot into recovery and wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik,that MIGHT do the trick
one question, how do you want to partition your sd? i mean one fat or one ext partition? But seriously, one partition is a bad idea, i wouldnt recommend that.
@Ty5982, Thanks for the input! Will try that later.
@greg17477, I'm using Windows so I want to format it to a single Fat32 partition. What's your recommendation?
Partition ur sd card in recovery with 1gb and swap size 64mb,THEN,open link2sd and when u 1st open it,it checks your phone and sd card then prompts u were u want to send apps to,ext 2,3,4 or FAT 32,select FAT 32 as its what u want,then a error msg will appear,reboot,then open link2sd and now you've got your fat 32 lol

Won't that have moved his apps to a fat32 partition?
If I'm reading this correctly what the OP wants is to move his apps to NAND so he can format his sd card to its full capacity in FAT32, presumably so he can use it as a normal SD card (eg for a camera, moving files etc)
I personally use a very popular app called DarkTremors Apps2SD GUI, it comes preinstalled on a lot of custom ROMS. This app checks where your apps are when you launch it, and gives you the option to either move them to SD-EXT or back again. Launch APPS2SDGUI, let it check your system, then click 'Apps are on SD!' to move them back to NAND.
P.S. I don't think you can wipe the SD-EXT partition off the SD card using Windows' built-in formatter. There are lots of freeware apps that can and will do this though, google is your friend =]

@Ty5982, unfortunately it didn't work. It went badly and I lost the apps in sd-ext so I ended up restoring them..

well i would recommend tu have 2 partitions, ext and fat. Just to be safe or prapared in case your want to try a different rom. Nowadayes almost every rom uses ext partition. And you won't run out of space, if you install some more apps.

I see. Thanks! Currently I have a 512MB EXT partition on my SD card. I thought I'd be able to choose which apps to move there but it seems my ROM automatically symlinks the apps installed to the EXT partition.
So I decided I want to just install the apps to NAND since I don't really install a lot of apps and I'm using a TMOUS HD2, just for an extra boost in performance compared to when apps are installed to SD-EXT. Then I'll just selectively move apps to SD.

Hi, I hope you guys are still around, I´ve been looking for an answer and can´t find anything, heres the question I posted on another thread:
I´ve been having trouble with my phone freezing even after full wipes, so I´ve come to the conclusion my sdcard is corrupt.
So I want to go through the Gparted process to format and re-partition my sdcard.
Currently I have 16GB class 6, which has the recommended FAT32 and 1GB ext4.
Is it safe (or even possible) to format the sd card now. I tried with Gparted and only the FAT32 partition showed up???
The rom is runnymede aio which requires the ext4
Thanks

Problem regarding Swap

I'm using Lewa OS v4,
Initially there is a Swapper working, with a swap file on System partition (not more than 32 MB).
But i want to make it some large, i tried Ext 4 partition on SD Card .
I go to the swapper setting and change the mode to sdcard partition ,
It says ' swap open failed '.
I reboot, swapping becomes normal but also that partition mounts at /data/app
That is phone memory is replaced by this partition and the apps which i install in phone memory it install on this partition.
And when i check the storage in " Managing Application " tab in setting it shows the real phone memory with apps installed on ext4 sdcard partition.
Its too messy
And due to this i am having trouble using ext4 sdcard partition swap.
Is this is a problem with GB Roms or only with Lewa rom v4

And why are u using ext4 for swap..ext2/3/4 are for sd-ext only..it should be in linux swap.
And try using swapper 2 which is free at play store..it can create a swap file of 256mb max..

Friend,
Use this menthod for swap in lewa os rom v4:
1.Backup ur currently data in CWM(skip this if u want a fresh install)
2.Backup all ur data in SD(place it somewhare in ur pc)
3.Reboot in CWM>Advance>Partition the SD Card>the ext3>512m>32m
4.Press Enter key.wait till its done.
5.Now u have 512mb EXT partition with 32mb SWAP partition & ur SD is REFORMAT.
6.Copy back all ur data
7.Reboot again in CWM & restore or install fresh rom
8.Go to swap in phone(u know where)and apply SD swap.
DONE
why just dont ask in my thread.....
What it means that 512MB EXT4 partition and 32MB Swap partition?
Actually I don't want partition for App to SD.
And if swap is 32MB then swap file in system partition is more feasible. As i know that phone memory is more faster than sdcard in any case. (Might be I'm wrong)
But in my case it is true, I have class 2 sdcard.

Depending on the apps you often use & how often those apps swap-out RAM, you might actually experience performance lag. Asides (I insist!), beating your card to death.

[Q] my hd2 only has 151mb of internal storage

why does my hd2 have 151mb of internal storage and only 91mb for installing apps. i have NexusHD2 ROM.:crying:
You have a 512MB HD2 (European). And most of that is taken by the system partitions and whatnot. You need data2ext or sth like that so that you can have more storage.
create ext4 partition on your sd card using mini partition tool, it will increase your internal memory.
Hit thanks if it helped :laugh:
it's normal that you have only this storage memory, Nexushd2 ROM are consuming a lot of memory.
You can move your apply on your sd-card if you have one or you can do that Rahil S say.

So when the ext partition is created, will some of the internal memory still be used up by apps that are on SD.

When you create an ext partition, it becomes the internal memory for apps. No need to move anything to SD.

No. Even after creating the ext4 partition, data and apps won't move on their own. You need to reflash the rom with the option "DataOnExt".
You can use TB to backup your apps, and restore after you re-install.
Is there another way, cause I don't want to mess around with the flashing stuff as I have bricked my phone in the past. I mean is there an alternative to flash like partition the SD card and use app like link2sd to move app data to sd

Are you looking for 10 posts also? Because we've already agreed that DataOnExt is the best option. He DOES want to give it a try, so your post is pointless = You are looking for 10 posts. What's the sudden interest in the HD2 section for spamming?
Also, NO. Your apology for interrupting this conversation IS NOT acceptable.
Anyway, @OP:
I think the best option is to back up all your apps using Titanium Backup, reinstall the ROM with DOE option, and then reinstall TB and your apps.
No, using Link2SD will not help you. It doesn't work like that. Sorry.
go to market and dowload link2SD to link or move app to SD ext or

Please re-format your ext4 partition to 1gb. As far as I know all those dataonext scripts using 1gb.
By the way:
I did the formatting of the partition for dataonext not over CWM. I used the program "Mini Partitioning Tool".
Just search the Internet, Google is you're friend

I installed NexusHD2-JellyBean-4.2.2-CM10. Do i still need to install dataonext separately ?

I hope you created the 1GB as primary and not logical. I made the same mistake some months ago
Please check the OT http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224469 installation section.
Do it like he is descriping and flash the ROM again. Otherwise it seems to be a problem with your SD card. Cheers
