1. do you have partition on sd card?
2.did you copy Android folder to root of sdcard and owerwrited
it?
3.did you set in titanium backup to restore backups to internal?
and try KMapp to check out if hd2sd is ticked in app....
and under hds2d settings in KMapp check if you have ticked following:
app, log, dalvik cache..under dalvik cache there are few options what to move....and remeber: it is important that you copy this folder(Android) to root of ur sdcard...
http://db.tt/b5ahm2zW
unzip it to sdcard and owerwrite it....

You need to put a space between the command "cat" and the file "/data2sd.log" so that it reads "cat /data2sd.log"

what r u saying is first u enable hybrid app2sd after that u make partition..?
it very simple just follow this STEP BY STEP... which Kyrillos said..
Optional, Enable Hybrid Data2sd [More space for apps!]
- Make a backup of your sdcard, enter CWM recovery and go to Miscellaneous => Partition SD Card. Choose the sizes you want (Recommended:512-1Gb ext, and 0mb swap]. After the partition completes, wipe data and reboot. You can now copy back all your sdcard files which you did a backup.
- Then copy the contents of the sdcard folder in your sdcard and reboot. No wipe data required, the first reboot may take time.
- Install titanium and go to titanium backup's preferences, and select Restore Backups to => Internal Storage. Then do your restore...

How to unpartition?
Hi, I used kyrillos rom before I installed cm7 a7 and in kyrillos I enabled HD2S and partitioned my sdcard with 512mb, after some time I installed a fresh copy of cm7 from odin, and my sdcard still has a maximum of 6.9GB instead of 7,4gb so i was wondering if there is a way to restore my sdcard to it's previous state?

A Little Help Plz
I installed kyrillos 9.0....
Updated to v9.5....Successfully!
Copied the four files necessary for HYBRID DATA2SD to my sd card
Went into cwm nd partitioned my sd card ..... successfully!
Installed Titanium Backup which shows the partition (a2sd)
went into terminal evaluator which shows hybrid data2sd script running
But still whenever i install apps, my internal memory gets low ???
I installed Kmapp also and have HYBRID DATA2SD enabled with "app, dalvik cache & log" checked
What did i do wrong?
Remedies please..
Thanks In advance

Greetings.!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Everyone,
First of all a warm greetings to every user and developer of the Blade community.
I had a wildfire in past (Sold out). Just purchased a new Idea Blade and as a regular member of XDA I am abide by the rules and regulations of the community.
Although I will search and read all the threads and post to understand the processes of rooting and flashing Custom Roms, for which we all are here and also if possible will try to help everyone with every possible aspects but first I will request you all to guide me to learn the process.
I think I am too talkative so now I am ending my little speech here.
Thanks for your valuable time to read the topic.
Every valuable comments and help will be highly appreciated..
Regards
Shiv

Lets start with Rooting stuff. I have checked with Ask Mr Pigfish and it says my cell is a Gen2 device. I have tried Z4root app to root but it did not give any results.
However I am thinking to flash a CWM recovery first and then will flash a superuser file to get root access.
Is it the proper way to get root? Coz I have a chinese blade (I've read somewhere that Idea blade is a chinese blade variant)

First of all, welcome to our Blade forum.
Second, read this root and TPT guide

Thanks buddy. Just rooted my phone with Z4root v2 app... Now I am very much confused with the term TPT. As I have a Gen2 device what will a be good fast and stable Rom and how to get a permanent CWM recovery?

Tpt means total phone transfer. It is used to change the partition sizes and/or flash a rom. Since u already have a Gen2, u wont be using tpts much
For permanent cwm, download rom manager from Google Play and select the first option, flash clockworkmod recovery. Wait a few seconds and when asked to.confirm phone model, select ZTE Blade. Wait till the flashing is complete. Now u can.boot into recovery any time by holding down "volume down" button plus power button
If ur looking for a stock rom(no much customization, etc), the best is Swedish Snow. Fast, smooth and lightweight.
If u want a custom rom,, CyanogenMod is the obvious choice. You can either go for CyanogenMod official release 7.1 or an unofficial CyanogenMod 7.2 kang (modified CyanogenMod) . I recommend BurgerZ CyanogenMod 7.2 available on burgerz.pro
You would also be interested in ColdFusionX. A fully stable ICS rom. There's a thread on ICS roms in the Blade Android development subforum

Hii thanks quantam for your help. I have installed the latest CM7 7.2 rc3 with a sd ext partition of 1 gb and after full installation I am getting around 900 mb free internal storage with the help of a2sdx script. Now my question is that will a2sdx work with builds of ics say with CM9 or coldfusionx???

A2sdx doesn't have cm9 support I think.
However, there's a better software called s2e which has been modded to support ICS. There's a flashable zip for s2e on the first page of the ICS thread.
(PS : 900 MB?????? Or 90 MB? )

Yes I have a blade buddy.
This is possible with this
I am shocked that you guys don't know about it. Anyways give it a try. Here is the procedure which I have followed:
1.Flashed the CM7. Rc3 Zip File.
2.Flashed Gapps 28082011
Booted the device and setup. In this stage the internal memory was 136 (near about)
3. After setup again go to recovery and flash the a2dsdx file.
Reboot and check the space.
but make sure to have a Sd partition . I found 1GB more comfortable however you can test it with 512Mb.
Good luck

This is possible because a2dsdx move your internal data and dalvik cache to sd ext and now your sd ext is your rom storage...for more details go through the thread which I have mentioned. I m planning to post this mod in dev section.so that everybody can use it..

Please read the below illustrations hope it may help you to understand the things:
WHAT IS IT??
This mod will move all Internal Memory (data) into sd-ext, "but not like data2ext", this mod will maintain the performance, because it still place dalvik-cache and system application data in Internal Memory.
HOW IT WORK??
The script will do this in the first boot:
Move Mounting Internal Memory (/data) Into /sd-ext
Mount SDCard-Ext (mmcblk0p2) partition into /data
Create dalvik-cache directory in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext), and symlink it to mmcblk0p2 (/data)
Create data directory in mmcblk0p2 (/data) And symlink it into Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)
Create symlink of app, app-private, app_s and lib_s from mmcblk0p2 (/data) to Internal memory data (/sd-ext)
Create symlink for all non-symllink of Internal Memory data (/sd-ext) into mmcblk0p2 (/data)
After Initializing Setup (First Boot), reboot the system (Just reboot, don't go into recovery), the mod will automatically do this following:
Create data_s in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)
Move All mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/com.htc* and com.android* into Internal Memory data(/sd-ext)/data_s
Create symlink all files/directory from Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)/data_s/* into mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/ So the System Application Data still read into Internal memory, but rest Application Data will read Into SDCard.
N.B. I am not the developer of this MOD so for any question please ask the developer. I have used it and found it very useful for my blade so I have share the screenshot and information whichever I knew....

NativeSD Rom+EXT4 for New Users with peechurs

By now a lot may already know this by now
NativeSD Rom Boot Script for HD2
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869673
many-many thanks to the devs & guys that gave us this!
But there are still a few out there that are new to this so here is what i did to make it simple to follow.
What's it about anyways, here one good answer from samsamuel
samsamuel said:
standard sd android runs from an image on the fat32 partition that pretends to be a file system, nativeSD actually installs to the EXT partition, and the phone/android treats it as a real filesystem. its the same as installing to nand, except as fast as or faster (assuming you have a nice fast card,) than nand, and it keeps the read/write pressure off the nand memory, reducing the potential for bad blocks.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
what you need:
- a good fast SD card, size depends on your needs (i tried a 4g Kingston that took forever to load, it could be fake/ damaged)
- MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 7.6
- Download 4EXT Recovery from here. this is where the magic starts, thanks Xylograph/ securecrt
- for multi-ROM selection , thanks datagr
- for NativeSD Touch Recovery, backup & restore thanks tytung
- How not to Google Play when using diffrent roms so as not to always go to Google Play
I assume you already have Magldr/ CWM in your HD2 & know your way around the Magldr Menu.
First we need to format the SD card so that it will contain two partitions, ALL DATA WILL BE DELETED. so do a backup/ copy of your card.
- 1 FAT32 primary
- 1 EXT4 primary
Be very careful when using the minitool partition as you can accidentally format/ delete your Hard Disk Partition.
Insert you SD card to your PC & run minitool partition, something like below will show. Make sure you select the right drive.

}
Right click on the drive & choose "delete" then apply the changes, Again make sure it's the right drive! You now have an "unallocated" partition.
right click on the drive again & choose "Create New Partition" & change the dropdown boxes as the options below. Now move the mouse to the end of the "Size and Location" table. click & hold then move to the LEFT to leave a space for the EXT4 which will be done latter. Size will depend on how many Roms yo plan to use & how many apps you plan to install. Click OK.
right click on the drive again that has the "Unallocated" space & choose "Create New Partition" & change the dropdown boxes as the options below. Remember it should be Primary & EXT4. Click OK
Click Apply & when it's done you should have 1 FAT32 & 1 EXT4 Partition
Another method of creating an EXT4 partition
3a Use the provided 4EXT recovery (NAND or SD version) to create the partitions and format them.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
copy the "TOUCH" or "TWRP" or "RECOVERY" folder your SD Card (they all do the same thing)
no need to copy the others for now as it will be erased when you create/ format the EXT4 partition

& this should run, Tap on Advance
Tap on Partition SD card
Ext size. = press the + sign to go up, swap size is 0 & make sure to select EXT4 then tap Partition
this is what info you can see using the "Recovery" Folder method
Magldr > Service > Boot Setting > AD SD Dear > Recovery (folder must be in SD root)
Time to Flash!
Magldr > Service > Boot Setting > AD SD Dir > TOUCH
Tap Install, notice that the compatible ROMS for this methoid have a div2 or NativeSD designation, tap on the ROM you want to flash.
Make SURE the ROM you Tap is the correct one
if you made a mistake tapping the incompatible ROM it will not go the Aroma installer but immediately will be flashed to NAND - erasing what ever you had there!
Install to SD-EXT
wait for it then your Done!
Magldr > Service > Boot Setting > AD SD Dir > NATIVESD
Run NativeSDBoot.apk, tap on whatever ROM you wan to BOOT to then re-start.

could by the way it was formated or the size of cluster used? some card specs are fast in some work task but now all maybe like read-write, copy-transfer etc.
anyways just use whatever works best for you

AFAIK those are just the same ROM manager/ Recovery loaders but from different dev's or you can use either if your keys are not functioning twrp(team win recovery project). for multi boot just use the app "NativeSDmultiboot" in the first page, it will be like the one attached.

I meant, how to install multi ROM with recovery method. do you just boot to the recovery folder and install another ROM.zip? or use the NativeSDmultiboot apk and then install from there?

DataonExt is basically using a partition of your sd-card( called the ext partition) to store stuff. This ext partition acts as your phone's internal memory, so when we run into low internal memory situation, after installing apps etc, dataonext usually saves the day.
You need 2 things to use this feature
A. An ext partition on your sd card
B. A script that mounts that ext partition as internal memory
A )
This can be done my using the minitool partition wizard or the CWM recovery.
In CWM menu, go to advanced>partition sd card. Select the partition size you want, keep swap to 0. Most GB roms dont need swap. And thats it, the ext partition is created
WARNING!!
Along with creating an ext partition, YOUR SD CARD WILL BE WIPED. MAKE BACKUPS
B) You need an A2SD script, Most A2SD roms already have this script so when u install the rom, after partitioning, the ext partition is automatically mounted. If you want another script, check my signature

This was the first thing that came up on google.
So you mean to tell me you have searched google AND xda and you couldn't find an answer? Seems legit.
You're lucky for having people like adil answering your question first.

Thanks for reply. is it ext3 or ext4 for hd2? and i will mount it "/data" or "/" or no mount? and what about cluster size? And i will use jb rom so i need swap? Thanks.

It did not say "NativeSD", it said "Native". He is using "Native" here as an English word, not a method of booting android.
In fact, if you had clicked on that and gone further you'd have realized what I mean.
Tip: Next time when you search something, you need to go INTO the things you find, not just read their titles.
And btw, it should be ext4 and don't worry about the cluster size, default is fine.

To basically just use the ext partition as internal memory, any ext type can be used. The CWM makes a ext3. You need the ext4 partition for NativeSD roms. Thats a WHOLE different thing. And when u use a default rom with A2SD support, you dont need to mount anything, anything that needs to be mounted, IS mounted.
For swap, check the rom thread, it should be there.

No inrernal storage after installing a new ROM

i got a HD2 and sent it to a store so they will install android on it, they did and it returned with a nice rom, fast and nice looking.
the only problem is that the phone shows that he dosn't have any internal storage, i cant download any apps or recive SMS or any thing like that.
the guy in the store cant fix it ( T__T) and he said (after a few times he sent it to the lab back and forward) that it should work now and if it dosn't he will give me the money back...
well it most be a fixable problem so if you guys could help me that will be great.. im not really good at this stuff so its difficult for me to learn it online.

What rom did they install? look in settings/about phone
If you pay someone to install android, it should work, so a refund might be appropriate.

Nice ICS rom
It seems that the rom is not using the ext4 partition for memory as it should (DataOnEXT). What bootloader is installed? On startup immediately press either the end-call button (if magldr is bootloader, you should get a menu) or the back button (if clk is bootloader, you should get a menu)

I pressed the end-call botton right after startup and got a boot manu so i guess magldr is bootloader..

go to magldr menu/8. ad recovery, it should boot your recovery, and tell us what recovery name and version you have installed. Also all information it gives regarding your sd card partitions, size etc.

ask as much as you want xD

I might be wrong, but I think you need to re-format your sd-ext partition, using the option in mounts and storage. It needs to be formatted to ext4, and I am sure that the recovery you have supports ext4 format.
Just a quick question, every time you boot the rom, do you have to go through the setup, language, wifi, time zone etc?

i thought it was because of the lack of internal storage...
so i need to re-format the sd-ext partition?

give it a go, can't hurt. Then reboot the rom and report back:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Tytung is using the NativeSD data folder for DataOnExt (same as my script);
I'd say it's likely that whoever installed the ROM partitioned/changed the sdcard after installing thus removing this folder:
If the ROM has a terminal emulator app:
su
mkdir -p /NativeSD/NexusHD2-ICS/data
If not install a recovery with a terminal (Extended TWRP for example)
mount => sd-ext
advanced => terminal
mkdir -p /sd-ext/NexusHD2-ICS/data
Or you could use adb or reinstall the ROM.

Sorry, forgot about this
I am working today, will try and post a flashable zip this evening.

Ok, put the attached zip onto your sdcard by either using a microsd card reader or using the usb cable and choose to copy files to/from your computer from the running rom.
Then go to magldr > ad recovery and install the test.zip from sdcard, you should get some text followed by update completed.
Restart the rom, set it up, reboot, profit?
