Hey guys,
I'm currently using a modified version of the GingerVillain ROM (Villain_AU 1.8 to be precise) on an HTC Desire with the MIUI A2SD+ implementation, instead of the Darktremor variant.
I'm seeking to reflash my partition tables and switch to a pure NAND solution, so I'll want to get rid of A2SD+ one way or another. Can I just remove the EXT3 partition using gparted and reflash the ROM. Will this work? - or will I have to use some ADB commands to remove the A2SD+ scripts from the ROM?
Thanks.
is there a solution for this?

hey guys, i am Kenny Spark, if you aint heard of me already, im a GSC Coder and script MW2 Files to hack the game. I can code in several languages including c++
i am new to all this stuf and need a helping hand.
2 days ago i downgraded my HTC Desire's Rom to stock Android 2.1
i then rooted the device using unrevoked on linux (backtrack 4)
then i began to flash custom roms to my phone but im now stuck when i try to flash RCMixHD v2.0 ROM to my mobile.
According to the developer, this rom uses a script know as data2ext which i think requires something to be done with the sd card. i think this has to be done
Fat + 1GB Ext4 + 0.3GB Ext4 + 0.1GB Swap
i know this means partitioning my sd card but i really have no idea on how to do it. i have a 4gb sandisk sd card so if anyone could explain i would appreciate it very much
i flashed the A2SD+ Version and it worked but the data2ext version just hung on the htc screen (i diddnt do anything to my sd card)
also do i need a certain radio or kernal? Thanks alot guys
I have searched and can't quite find an answer.
I have 2.2 on my Ideos, used Amon Ra recovery to partition my SD card. How do I enable or install or activate apps2sd for myself? Is it a kernel thing or is there a scripts or app i can run to start using my sdcard ext parition as memory?
Sorry if this has been anwered 1000 times before...
Thanks for any information.
you can use app2sd and move2sd enabler with your stock rom or can you can use a custom rom that support app2sd+ script formatting your sd with a ext3 partition
Thanks for the info.
I know that froyo has native apps to sd support, and I probably worded my question wrong. I think I meant to ask how does one get apps2ext to work. Judging by your response it's a ROM thing, cooked into it eh.
Thanks.
we have no app2ext rom at the moment for our ideos
DJDROID-Ideos has apps2ext doesn't it?
App2sd plus

Yesss!!! DJDroid Ideos have App2sd plus [work with Ext2 Ext3 Ext4]
the Mod is in ramdisk and script in init.d for Ext4 you must mod Kernel
So it's gotta be cooked into a rom though right? Or is there a script or something that will install it on my phone's current rom?
Thanks.

You MUST mod the boot.img and than you can add a script
Thankyou, that's exactly what I wanted to find out.
Hi,
I own a HTC Desire (Rooted) phone & are currently using CyanogenMod (Nightly Build 39), very happy with rom but would like to choose maybe another type of rom, questions are:-
1. Which roms are compatible to Alpharev s-off?
2. Whats the best rom available?
3. Which roms have 720 HD running on camera?
Thanks
You can try leedroid 3.02 good solid rom and it works fine with s-off and has the 720p camera
Hi Larkspeed,
Thanks for quick reply, tried loading leedroid before but phone stuck on Alpharev startup screen, what process do i use to install rom?
Previously used:-
Wipe Data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
install zip from sdcard
reboot.
Cheers
make sure you have a ext3 partition as the second partition on your SD Card.
I hads the same problem until I figured out that some rom or other had changed my ext3 to ext4 as soon as I changed it back then leedroid loaded fine
Cheers,
How do I change ext 3 to ext 4?
Thanks
im coming from htc desire, cm7, so i have sd-ext2 partition on my sd card. do i still need that partition for android revolution or can i get rid of it? i tried using darktremor but didnt work. thanks

Anyone else have this model that can tell me what to do about freeing up internal space on the Stock ROM?
I've tried several of the things in this forum on the stock ROM with no success: Factory Data Reset (the apps don't re-populate for me), Link2SD...says it "can't mount" and gives me an error...Titanium Back-up works as far as moving some apps that I couldn't before to SD, but most of there .dex and temporary files still are posted to the internal memory. I do have a Root Explorer where I can go in and delete unnecessary files, but I don't know which ones are unneccessary...does ANYONE have ANY tips on how to save on memory. There's got to be some EXPERTS around here that have had this phone long enough to give some MUCH NEEDED advice. I've heard not syncing the contacts with Google and Facebook save on space? But how do I do that if they're already synced? What do I delete. What apps are out there or what can I install on a root, stock ROM that will benefit in COMPLETELY moving apps and there cache/data to my SD card?
I had 10MB free last night...I wake up this morning and I have 0MB...what is up with that? Where is my space going! Are there any apps that can read where my biggest files are?
Side note: I'd really like to keep this thing on the Stock ROM and not mess with the radios, etc...as it's supposedly a network unlocked phone. If I do flash ROMS will it mess with my default radios? Also where can I find the Stock ROM to flash back to if I do NEED to flash right now in order to save on internal space. I really don't want to lose features like the Facebook button, front-facing camera, etc.
ANY HELP IS EXTREMELY APPRECIATED.
Thanks fellas!

Yea, it didnt work for me..I think it's cause I'm on Stock ROM. Has anyone gotten Darktremor to work on Stock? If so, how?
The only issue that i can remember, is that your rom isnt mounting the ext particion
Im using a stock rom with the darktremor script, but in order to use the script i have to do this
Install the script in recovery
Particion the sd card( fat32 / ext4)
Boot the phone
I have to format the ext particion using a pc software to ext2
Reboot the phone
Use the terminal emulator or a2sdgui in order to use the script
Try this way and tell if it works for you

Stock boot.img doesn't have init.d support and therefore dta2sd will not work. You need to edit boot image to add init.d or google how to do it without editing. There is a nice tutorial on xda on how to add init.d support on stock rom without editing the boot.img
