[Q] ROM not detecting ext4 partition for dataext - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

I partitioned my 8gig sd card => 6.5(fat 32-prim) & 1.5(ext4-prim).
In Storage Menu under settings,it is showing available space as 0.00 B
Also whenever i reboot the phone, it gets back to default state.
Any help ?
P.S. I tried partitoning using CWM & PC both. Still the same results

did you Install a dataonext script?

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 ?

You need to select dataonext when installing!

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

Partitioning the SD Card? [HELP]

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

booting multiple native sd roms ?

hi dear friends .. maybe this has been mentioned befor but really i couldnt understand how to do it .
i have an 8 gb sandisk micro sd card. am aware how to boot one native sd rom on it by copying its zip folder and the recovery folder to my fat partition ( after creating 2nd ext4 partition) and installing the rom through the recovery and aroma installer.
my question is: i want a simple explanation how to put more native sd roms on that sd card a be able to boot any one of them when i wish?
am sorry if this sounds silly.. but really i couldnt do it . thanks in advance .

If 6GB is enough for your storage, then do 2GB EXT4 partition, install first NativeSD ROM, then if you want a second NativeSD ROM, just flash the second one the same way as you did the first, then load the NativeSD Multi Boot application when booted into Android and press Switch Rom, click on the ROM you want eg. NexusHD2/PAC/CMTight or whatever you want and then reboot.
you just flash the next NativeSD to ext4 & use the NativeSDBootV7 to select which ROM you want to boot next. check out the link below, it might help.
is it that simple! just re-flash the 2nd rom to the same fat32 partition without doing extra ext4 partitions.. then boot into it! ok will give it a try soon. thanks so much

The EXT4 partition is for the ROM's, the FAT32 partition is for basically the user data that the applications create example. if you're using Sygic Maps, it'll store the map the data on the FAT32 partition.
Just make sure you're using NativeSD not Nand when in the Aroma Installer.
thanks gays.. it worked fine
now is there an app for wm that lunches android directly after boot whithout oppening the file explorer inside wm ?

[Q] Link2SD not linking to SD Card 2nd Partition

I followed the tutorial by Sir CarlDeanCatabay to increase the Internal Memory by partitioning SD Card using Mini-Tool Partition Wizard. I first made my 2nd Partition as EXT4(as Merruk 2.5 supports EXT4), but, Link2SD was unable to mount script. I tried with both EXT2 and EXT3, but, the same result came. I saw another external tutorial which said to make the 2nd Partition FAT32; I did, and Link2SD was able to mount. I installed some Apps and LWPs, and Link2SD said that it was link to the SD Card. When I looked upon the Storage Info in Link2SD Menu, I saw my 2nd Partition as same as it was at first, but, my Primary Android-SD(it was set as Active during partition) was filled with 35 MB out of my knowledge.. Isn't link2sd linking my apps to the 2nd Partition and instead doing so to SD Main? If so, what should I do? Thanks!
I think u must prefer cwm method....as it is easy and doesn't creates problem

yeah! I did set my 2nd partition as Primary and FAT32....since, Link2SD was unable to mount the EXTs...

[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.

but i dont know how to create an ext4 partition on sd card, can someone please guide me through on how to do this.:crying:
I'm sorry, you will have to look for that yourself.
You can use the link in my signature, it's an HD2-specific search.
So when the ext partition is created, will some of the internal memory still be used up by apps that are on SD.
Sent from my NexusHD2 using xda app-developers app
When you create an ext partition, it becomes the internal memory for apps. No need to move anything to SD.
Yes but i have created ext partition of 1gb, yet I still get low memory message. I used titanium back app.

You reflashed the rom? And chose Dataonext?

i just created an ext4 partition of 1gb on the sd card using cwm. like rahil s indicated
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

Sorry for getting in the middle of your conversation,
but i believe that the best solution is data onext that it was stated above.
Tou should really give it a try!

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
