App 2 sd any verison missing data/ disappearing - Hero CDMA Android Development

If I understand any aps2 sd will slowy loose mem because of data build up please correct me if I'm wrong but I've been using titanium back up the data wipe option on every app that I use last and it always puts my mem / internal mem back I have done this for one month straight and it has not failed me yet don't know how this will work for every one but it does for me I have over 85 apps installed on darch droid 2.7 with the all black theme and I have 156 internal mem and it stays that way so try it out along with cache mate for root useres also boot into recovery and move ur dev cache &apps to sd any ways just thought Id put it out there

cyanogen with a2sd, partitioned, dalvik on sd

Could somebody PLEASE give me walk through of the holy grail here? I have rooted my aria and loaded cyanogen nightlies many times, but when it comes time to format and get a2sd working on a partitioned card I fail miserably. I seem to run into issues when the guides mention to go into recovery and partition the card. I am running clockwork and can't find the right partition menu. I tried a method involving adb and could not get a file to push, downloaded darktremor and got an endless htc screen boot loop, and at this point my phone may as well be a missile to my computer screen. I am a noob, but not entirely unfamiliar, just some sort of help getting to that last screen where I see lots of phone memory and can finally lay off deleting apps to add one.
Thanks and I hope someone is out there willing to help!
Can't give you a link from here, but I can encourage you to look for a forum that discusses Ext3 partitioning using a live ubuntu cd. You may have rooted using a similar method. I'll try to remember to send you a link when I get home. Search until then. Post if you find it.

Why not just use Rom Manager to partition the card?
I tried that many times but it never worked. It always hung up on the ! triangle screen. I had no problems with the live cd method.

I did this but went with ext3. I actually practiced with an older SD card until I got it right. The order of partitions is important. Fat32, ext, then lswap. Read around about recommended sizes. For an 8GB card I went with 6.5gb/1gb/32m.

Skip swap. Should not need/use it on a 512K ram device.
Edit: I know specs say less - specs are wrong! Liberty has the same memory as the N1.
I did it as a precaution. My SD is waaaaaay oversized and figured I could afford to waste 32mb.

and I am running out of space on a 16 gb card. 12gb mp3s and 600+ pictures will do that.

thanks for this attn. i had seen posts about swap on other devices and wondered if it would help my aria. i'm glad i didn't try to set it up...
Thanks everone for responding. This is where I am with the partition. So when I put the card the phone and mount sd card it shows the same amount of memory in the phone (77.26) when I added a gig of ext2 in gparted.
Do I need to go back into gparted and charnge the ext2 to ext3? Or is this an issue where I need to change something in the phone I am missing. I did reboot after putting the card in.
You won't see any increased capacity there. What you will see after apps2sd is working is that the amount of internal used will go down. I had to reinstall apps2sd after I did the partition, even though darktremor's apps2sd came with my ROM. It defaulted to off because it saw no ext partition upon ROM installation.

So I wipe data and flash a cyanogen nightly it will automatically pick up a2sdext and show the proper storage data?
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
I haven't been in this position myself (always clean installs since using a2ext) but I believe if you have darktremor's a2sd installed and have ext on your sd card, but apps are still on the device, you can do:
su
a2sd reinstall
in the terminal app on the device and it will move all apps from device memory to the ext partition. not sure how this behaves if you have any apps on sd via the standard froyo method....
I don't have a problem wiping data, dalvik and cache since I backed up everything. Going to give it a shot here...
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Fwiw, I have been using this method up until this release candidate. Seems broken now.
Sent from my Liberty using XDA App
Ok, so I tried wiping data/cache/dalvikr then flashed cyanogen nightly 99 and it still only showed 138m internal memory. So then I tried downloading darktremor and flashing the zip from clockwork which gives me infinate htc white bootscreens. Then I tried wiping again and flashed the darktremor zip and then cyanogen 99 and the phone booted up, but when I check internal memory I am at 123m. Am I just completely missing something here?
You are likely seeing dalvik. If you have a good SD card, do su in a terminal and then a2sd cachesd. The phone will reboot.
That moves dalvik to SD as well.

Says a2sd not found. If anyone has any ideas, I am willing to start from scrap to get this running. BelacNongaw, how did you get yours running? If you don't mind I could try tracing the steps you took and that might work?
Did you type:
su
system/bin/a2sd cachesd
in terminal?

internap momery issue

why i still lose internal momery inspite i install all my app. to sd and no any progam new install there
beside i clear cache every while
i use rooted galaxy ace
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Memory is space for running programs. So yes, you will run out of that.
Internal storage would be something different. Though some apps may still get installed to your internal memory regardless of what you tell it.
then what i can do
i lose memory eevery min with doing nothing

Hold power and both buttons on the volume rocker until the phone reboots. When you see the Samsung logo, let go of power, but keep holding the rocker down. This boots you into recovery.

Just wanted to make sure I was doing it right. Well still no luck. After the back up says complete, this is the log info.

so I reboot the phone after that, went into cwm and there's no backup from the back up list. :/

Even the internal storage is pretty much open. I have no music/videos/anything. Maybe a couple apps and that's about it.

Have you recently tried to move any files between your SD card and PC? Sometimes cards can become corrupted, or certain files at least can also become bad and not read. The more you mount and unmount the more degraded it gets. If you tried to delete any files, did you accidentally delete something from your internal SD?
Not that I'm aware of. When I get home ill try transferring a small file over. As far as the internal SD card its fine.

Which version of Google Play Store are you running? You may need yo update with the newest version .apk file. Also, some applications are local storage only -meaning you are not able to move to your sdcard. Which size/class sdcard are you using, and have you tried clearing data and or wiping cache partition and/or Dalvik cache?

clearing cache and dalvik is just one of those things that sometime magically fixes things. Like restarting your computer when it acts up. it won't hurt anything at all, you won't notice a speed hit at all. If you wipe dalvik cache the first boot after it will take for ever (a few minutes), but then it will be fine.

clearing sd card

Right I have done a factory reset, I have go onto clock work mode and formated the internal memory, I have cleared the cache (both options in clock work mode) and now i have 11.97 GB FREE INTERNALLY and 27 GB FREE EXTERNALLY, and i cannot install application or update anything, even google street map add on as it says "out of space, could not be installed. free yo some space and try again" .........................................................................
can someone PLEASE help me before i blow my tablet up

yes, ive done that as well, just no luck at all....I don't know what to do I can't install anything
If its rooted I'd go back to stock completely and take it back if it still isn't working... If it works on stock rom then try rooting again and see if there's a problem again 1st...
