help with darktremor a2sd

i really don kno how to use the a2sd on fitdroid v2.0
can someone plz help?

Dude, ull first have partition your sd card. Then only u can use darktremor apps to sd. To partion your sd card, go to recovery mod>advanced>partition>and then select the size of partition. Atleast 512mb of partition is recommended.
After doing that,reboot ur phone and now a2sd should work without any issues!
Feel free to ask if u still have any problem

maybe this coud help you
IF U WANT DARKTREMOR A2SD TO WORK THEN U HAVE TO PARTITION UR SDCARD.
TO PARTITION FIRST TAKE BACKUP OF UR SDCARD AS IT NEEDS TO FORMAT UR CARD WHICH WILL ERASE ALL UR SD CONTENT.
IN CWM MENU GOTO ADVANCED MENU.
SELECT PARTITION SDCARD.
SELECT SIZE U WISH(512 or above) AND SELECT 62 or above AS SWAP VALUE.
WAIT FOR SOME TIME AND RESTART UR DEVICE....
TO CHECK A2SD WORKING OR NOT GOTO APP DRAWER MENU AND OPEN A2SDGUI APP AND CHECK APPS ARE ON SD IS ENABLED....
if it is active, you can move the Dalvik cache to sd card by selecting the Dalvik cache on SD-EXT and press Move button and reboot phone
sory for my language

tried that, did not work

hi, i tried all of this as you mentioned...
eventually, this darktremor a2sd stopped my apps from being moved at all and it kept on saying that i don't have enough memory... though i know i should have... any thoughts??

Okay, a question from me...
Is it possible to have this swap setup in the stock gingerbread rom (ddkq5)???
Can anybody give a step-by-step tutorial, or maybe just a link, along with a list of all the necessary apps/other stuff that will be needed..??
I have a 16gb memory card in my galaxy fit...

I run Creed´s ROM 1.5 and there is also Darktremor included.
I thought SD was automatical formatted with ext4 by installing it. So I am a little puzzled to see, that moving to SD does not work as well as swap option.
Could you tell me, what is the matter?^^
Edit: Found out by my own, followed the same steps as mentioned above for FITDroid. Works on Creed´s ROM 1.5 as well. Only Disadvantage I found was it reduces my 8GB SD to 4096MB (couldn´t select higher at CWM) also after moving Dalvik, system boot seems to loop .. had to recover (good I did before )

[Q] any1 knw hw to fix dalvik-cache mv 2 sd in creedsv2

hey guys i am new i really want to know if some one can fix r there's way to fix problem i.e
in creeds rom v2 dalvik-cache move to sd dont work i m stuck on boot loop for hours n i need a solution as in v1.7.2 i had 125 apps now i cant even install 50 of them....plz help.

maybe there's no ext4 partition?

no coz in v1.7.2 i made partition and of 512mb and moved dalvik-cache to sd and 64mb swap but a2sd is working well in v2 jus the move to sd function is not working as described by mr.creedo himself in the thread...n m still using v1.7.2 with sd-ext...
i think its coz of either rom or the kernel coz v2 is based on cmptly new firmware but in v.1.7.2 it is giving no such problem.

try link2sd...

Dalvik cache to sd is not working for now.Even i tried to do so but it din't work and i had to reflash. May be creed will come up with a solution

i have been studying android in deep and i think these steps might help via link2sd
and FAT2 partition

ya that is ungaze script...already implemented in cm7.2 rc5.5 by asad007
I haven't tried partition tool...I partitioned via cwm...
and your secondary partition should be ext2/3, not fat32...

I partitioned ext 4 via windows. Putted ungaze script. Working . Same benchmark as without script. I am on rc 5,5

Het guys please becarefull about the partition thing..
Because its very risky and you better have backup of your sdcard ane save that backups at your PC or notebook..
Some of my friends has been loosing all of his data because of it.

When u first time partitioning sd card, it will remove all your sd card stuff ofcourse. Just put it on desktop and move back when partition is done.

Enter Recovery Mode by holding POWER + HOME;
With the Volume Down key (-) and High Volume (+) and navigate to the HOME key Select "advanced";
Select "partition SD Card"
In the next window you should choose the partition size.
If you have a 2GB card to advise you put 512mb 1024mb,
If you have a card with 4GB or 8GB advise putting 2048mb.
And finally select the size of the swap partition for extra memory.
If you have an urge to put 2gb card 128mb,
If you have a card with 4GB or 8GB advise putting 256mb.
enter the Market and install the program Links2SD
to open the program you should choose ext3 and press ok> then superuser permission> and after that restart your phone.
Now press the Options button to display the sub-menu of the program
Made this to take and check the settings, and automatically link-site check in'' automatically''.
Now press the Options button to display the sub-menu of the program.
Made this to take and check the settings, and automatically link-site check in'' automatically''.
Return to initial screen of the program, press the Options button to display the sub-menu and then click multiple selection, press the shutter button and select options select all, press again press the options button and click Actions, and click Create link. Press OK to start, and all your applications ready to go to memory that was created ext3.
Now we will install and configure the Swapper. Lower application, install the application by the Market, after check the Active on Boot Swap on Swap File Position sure "EXT Partition SD Card" in "Swap File Size" set a value as the size of the partition created in ext, I suggest that is a partition of 1024 put 250 if a partition of 2048 put 512 of superuser permissions and restart the phone.

I wouldn't recommend swapper...
long story short, it'll start affecting performance...and do more bad than good...
swap partition is basically virtual ram...but the problem with this is, our phones ram is fast, while even the best of sd cards can't match that...
so you may get better performance initially, but soon you'll regret having a swap partition...

[Q] Help Me to Use Data2Ext in IcySnap v1.6 ROM (neko 95's ROM)

Hi....... :fingers-crossed:
​
I guess everyone here have known about the Great ROM called ICY SNAP (thanks to Neko for that such great ROM ). :good:
But i miss the tutorial how to use the Data2ext Feature on it ?
First of all.. Before using a data2ext we should have a partition on our SD-Card, isn'it ?
So that we can use that partition to use the Data2ext and move our app/data.​
My question is :
1. How to create a Partition on my SD-Card with the safest way.
2. And after we create it, what should we do next ?
3. I read from the Icy Snap Thread notice, we may activate the Data2ext via Terminal Emulator Command. And after i do the 2 step above, may i just activate it through it ?​
Thanks in Advance for your great Help and Answers. :victory: :angel: ​

Boot in recovery mode. Now select "Partition sd card", Next select Partition sd then set swap size= min 64MB(recommended by neko), Set ext-size= As you want and confirm thats it.
But backup your sd card before bpartitioning since it will be formatted during the process.

[Q] Partition sd help !

I am new here so don't judge me.
I want more space for my phone to storage more apps. I watched a video wich showed how to partition using rom manager. I did everything right, but when i reboot into recovery i do not have the option "partition sd" i only have like 4 options : instal from sd, wipe cache, factory reset and reboot.
What should I do? Thanks

Hope ua Fit gets FIT again..

You may partition SD with CWM (Clockworkmod Recovery). Make primary partition FAT32 and primary partition ext2, 3 or 4. The best ext4.
You may SD partition and with MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition. Download and install this application.
Tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning
Connect your phone Galaxy Fit with PC, and open MiniTool partition Wizard Home Edition.

Create a partition through yannou recovery(cwm) 1gb or 512mb .
1. Reboot into recovery.
2. Goto Advanced>partition sd card> select swap as 0 mb and partition size as you want
3. Once completed. Reboot and select ext3 in link2sd :thumbup:

Maybe you didn't partition your SD card right. Boot your phone without your memory card. If the ROM boots up okay and the ROM is working properly with almost everything present, the problem is with your SD card. Format it and partition it using Yannou's recovery.
I'm not responsible if anything worse happens to your phone.
