[Q] Link2SD not re-mounting the partition after flashing new ROM

Hi,
First of all, thank you a lot for all the development effort that has been put in to bring the AOKP ROM up to this fantastic standard. I have been using the ICS AOKP for quite a while, and just switched over to the JB ROM. It feels a lot faster and smoother, thank you!
I have got a question on Link2SD after flashing this ROM. Apologies beforehand, if this is not the forum to post that. I had used Link2SD while on ICS to move most of the apps to the SD card. Now after flashing JB, Link2SD does not re-mount the SD card secondary partition. I selected all the options mentioned (ext2/3/4/FAT) but it fails to mount with any of those options. So I'm not able to re-link any of my apps. Does anyone know how to fix this and get my apps back?
I also tried the following as per suggestions in some of the threads: 1) mounting it in recovery: not working; gives the message error mounting sd-ext (2) deleting some of the apps like Downloads and Email: still not working even after deleting those two apps.
Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I never had any problem with link2sd and ANY rom. Im on CM 10.1
Till ICS it was easy to directly download and flash roms and Gapps.
But JB roms need trimming.
What i do is.. after a clean wipe I flash any JB rom. Then remove unwanted apps.. Instal Link2sd..
change few minor system apps to user apps (not recommended, if you dont know.. what you are doing).
After linking these apps.. I always have enough mem for Gapps.
In Gapps also you have few apps which you can convert to user app and then link it.

My issue is now fixed, but in a hard way. Formatted the secondary SD card partition, and then Link2SD automatically recognized it. All the apps are gone, but at least I got the secondary partition active. Spent another half-hour downloading all the needed apps again from the Play store.

Link2Sd not working for me on CM10.1 Rom
I am using TouchWiz JB V2 Rom
I have tried ti install int2Ext+ (CronMod Fixed version fro 4.2.2) Still no luck
Also installed Link2Sd but it gave
Unable to create mout script error
I partiotned my sdcard using recovery (CWM 5.0.2.6) (it created Ext3)
Then (Delected the sdext partition using "Mini Partition Tool Wizard" then created new partition for Ext4)
But still no luck Nothing seems to work

Hi
І have also had the problem.
I removed the system software of Google voice search, voice dialing, search . (Titanium Backup / un-install all user & system apps)
format ext2 or ext4.
Run Link2sd
Apparently there was no room in the system or chmod / chown

Can you tell which version of kernel you are using?
If you are on 3.x.x version, sorry to tell you that these scripts are not working till today.

The standard and not-really-necessary idea of doing a factory-reset wipe when flashing is the problem here. I also had that zong my sdext making it read-only and nothing, nothing except re-partitioning the sdcard helped.

not working !
hi ! I have a problem , I've tried to partition sd card with cwm, minitool partition , tried ext 2,ext 3 , ext 4 , flash again ROM , install first link2sd , recreate mount scripts every time i change the method but no matter what i do , it keep telling me that the 2nd partition is not mounted and wont let me recreate mount script . ( Mount script cannot be created ) . If anyone can help me , i'll very much appreciate . Thanks !

Hi, you can do one of these things, by adb shell run e2fsck -fpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 to your second partition or using gparted run a full check of second partition of your SD card in a computer card reader, after that will work. I have the same problem, but in my case i have to do this procedure EVERY DAY because at next start the read only problem starts over... ANY BETTER SOLUTION APRECIATED !!!

After factory reset, I had a read-only ext4 partition. Had to start over.
Common cause of link2sd not creating its mount scripts is too little room on /system. Try adb shell df | grep system. Need a few meg. If this be the problem, need to trim the ROM.

Can,t understand ... How to Do it In Micromax A27...in custom Rom
tell me how to do it in Micromax A27 in custom Rom Dreamboltxv2

A lot of separate issues here and in various threads:
1. Sd-ext read only after factory reset. I never do that. Had that very thing happen. Save all data from partitions to computer, repartition and copy it back.
2. Not enough room on system to process/form mount script. JB and onward, ROMs need trimming. > 3meg needed, 9meg should be plenty.
3. No room on data. Link2sd can still work and fix that. If sdext can be mounted, that is ... and a launcher can live long enough to get to lin2sd and start it!
4. Other errors creating the mount script. I am now getting "device busy ... maybe ext4 not supported ... try vfat ... etc." Ext4 is supported. I have a copy of the script which I can place myself.
5. Data integrity problems in Kitkat based ROMs. Repeated recreation of dexes on data, using it up (Link2sd's Achilles heel). Sometimes, recreating that script can stop this. If one can get it re-created. Issues 3, 4. Link2sd can get the space back, problem is keeping it.
I have raised the issues with Link2sd authors.

[Q] no internal space after installing rom

Need help and can't post in the thread required because i'm new. I installed explorerman's rom xenon system http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048312 which installs great but after install and rebooting several times I still have an internal storage issue. I have a 32gig SD partitioned with a 4gig ext3 partition, when the rom boots I get an error about internal storage then I get an error about the m2sd app saying the script is either missing or out of date. I follow the instructions and update through m2sd then, after a few minutes reboot the phone. Next it still say's the internal memory is full, 1mb free and m2sd still showing errors with no data moved to the sd-ext. I tried a 4gig sd card with a 1 gig ext3 partition but still the same problem.
I am doing as said and wiping dalvik cache etc. I have a backup of the ONLY rom that works which is based on android 4.03 but I want the original setup back on the phone so any help needed and please, no stupid comments or immature comments as I have seen from some posts here. i'm not a child but at the same time I am not a tech-head, thanks.

I wouldn't know how to, I just trust the developer and since the rom does everything I wouldn't know where to look. the last time I tried editing a rom zip, it wouldn't install because it didn't match the original signature of the zip file. Also, because I am a new forum user, I can't contact the developer directly for some help.

Make 1 gb partition(Enough)! As the script uses 100mb of internal for every 500mb sd-ext....so making 3gb is useless.
Plus while configuring the app disable safe mode and see if that helps

Will try that, thankyou

Nope, didn't work, wiped the SD card and made a 1gig ext3 partition, also disabled safe-mode as suggested, still loads EVERYTHING to internal memory with 1mb left, it also comes up with a busybox error and a script error on first boot. I went into M2SD and set apps, data and delvik to use the sd-ext partiotn and waited, nothing, so rebooted the phone, nothing. All with the same message of 'The current status does not match your settings for this option' under Applications, Data and Delvik Cache, also 'Could not set the sdcard readahead' which is set to 512 as default.

Why you don't install cm10.1 beta 3. Its great and cool and stable to. Based on 4.2.2. Android os install link2sd and make both partition of fat32 by mini tool and don I have this problems when install the ROM you have then after I do this I have 8 GB SD card 1 GB fat 32 partition and other for data. Alls going good smooth stable. And a have 43 app installed on my pico and remaining internal memory showing 87 mb my good suggestion is to change ROM .
And give a time to the developers of (explorerman's rom xenon system) to make the ROM best

Did all that, I always do a complete clean of the phone before I try anything but still not working. I think, because it was a T Mobile HTC Explorer rather than a generic one that there is something hard coded into it. I see through the forums so many people having no problems at all but they have generic phones rather than unlocked phones from service providers. I am not a programmer so this is just guess work and from experience, I can't even restore the phone using an RUU because it will only accept a T-Mob one. If there a way to replace the entire software on the phone then I would but it's programmed into the chips at factory level (low level) since the phone was produced by HTC for T-Mobile. If the phone had been bought directly from HTC then there would be less problems. So far, I haven't found a single rom that doesn't have some kind of problem with this phone.
Thanks for all the suggestions but I'm guessing it's time to 'pick a window' for it and just save up for a more modern phone than trying to keep this HTC Pensioner going.

I used Link2SD on CM10.1.4 (Android 4.2.2) of Jenkins. I've not problems. Before install ROM need partition SD Card on FAT32 and ext4 partitions. Now can install ROM. After install ROM, install Link2SD. Open Link2SD and select ext4, wait to make script. When script make you'll get a notification that the script is done and to you need reboot phone. Reboot phone. After reboot phone, open Link2SD and in Settings check Auto link. Exit from Link2SD and it is it.
When you install applications, you can get notification that is memory full. After this notification, reboot phone and memory will be O.K.

I do all your same step, and usually after reboot i have about 70 MB free, but in this last day i have noticed that i have an icon that tell me that my internal memory is full.
My only difference from u is that i use ext3 part and not ext4, but i think it is the same.
DO u have any suggestion ?

Not to SD Card. You need try "Create link". If you can not, then it means that the link has automatically created.

Go in CWM. Now go on wipe data reset, wipe cashe partition and in Advanced, go on wipe dalvik cashe. Flash ROM. After flash ROM again go on wipe data reset, wipe cashe partition and in Advanced, go on wipe dalvik cashe. Reboot Phone. Wait to system up, and it is about 5 minutes.
On SD Card you need have ODEXME.apk. Download it from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157251
Install Root Explorer. Open it and copy odexme.apk and paste it in system/app. Made Permissions for this .apk (rw,r,r). Reboot Phone. After Reboot Phone go in Applications and click on this Odexme.apk and follows instructions. Reboot Phone. After Reboot Phone open Root Explorer and go in system/app and check whether each application has its odex. If have, it is it.
Now install Link2SD. Open Link2SD and select ext4. Wait to make script. When made script, you will notification than script is made. Reboot Phone. After Reboot Phone, open Link2SD, go on Settings and check Auto link. Exit from Link2SD.
Before, you for Link2SD need partition SD Card on Primary FAT32 and primary ext4.

[q] sd-ext partition is not mounting!

So the other day I decide to get a new SD Card and gift myself with a sd-ext partition so my FIT can have more apps than it already has. :laugh: After creating the partition succesfully I installed Link2SD and tried to install the script. This somehow didn't work.
Then I tried flashing the darktremour apps2sd script and using the apps2sdgui application, which again gave no fruitful results. A2SDGUI displays a message saying could not start for one of these reasons:
1. Device not rooted
2.A2SD Script could not be found.
3.No EXT partition found.
Now I know that the script did get installed successfully. My device is obviously rooted. So finally it boils down to 'No EXT partition found'. I tried mounting the sd-ext partition from the recovery and booting the device, to no effect. :crying:
I would appreciate it if anyone can help me with the issue. I really need that ext partition!
PS: I'm using Official CM7 ROM without any additional scripts other than apps2sd script.

I remember when I bought a new sdcard(class 10), my FIT(with 2.3.6 gingerbread/based rom) didn't even recognized it. Then the shop guy formatted it from the phone itself & then my FIT detected it. Then I created the ext4 partition(512mb) using cwm recovery 5.0.2.7 & all is well since then.
So I can only advice u to first backup the sdcard contents & format it from ur phone; then use 5.0.2.7 cwm recovery to partition it & hopefully all will go well for u too.
Also maybe the A2SDGUI app is conflicting. & there are some roms in which ext4 partition don't work/mount(my experience) but it should work for official cm7. I have cm7 of 28-10-2012 & 01-03-2013(last build) but I faced serious call issues in the last build: other person keep listening the callertune while my phone didn't even ring. So I reverted back to cm7-20121028-NIGHTLY-s5670.zip:sly: & it worked like charm.

I did partition the SD card from the CWM Recovery.. Now, I don't understand how the A2SDGUI app is conflicting. It is just an app to manage the partition rather than using commands in the terminal.
Anyway, I tried the unofficial versions of CM7 and now I have a working partition. I used Link2SD to install the scripts. Link2SD installs the ext4 scripts , even thought the partition is ext3. Well, I can't complain as long as everything is working
Thanks for the reply though. :good: :highfive:

Using Link2SD again after flashing ROM

Not a developer and pretty new to rooting still.
I'd been using Link2SD to get more room in my Samsung Galaxy Blaze 4G, that worked wonderfully.
But a few weeks ago I had a phone issue and flashed a new ROM. Working just fine, I reinstalled some of my apps. Yesterday I was at the point where I needed more room again and I restored Link2SD (app+data) from TiBu.
On reboot I realized my mistake - suddenly all my apps were crashing. I uninstalled Link2SD, rebooted, everything fine again. I'm guessing it's because some of the apps I'd reinstalled after flashing were also linked in the 2nd partition of my SD card? I then tried downloading a fresh copy of Link2SD, but that had the same effect.
I had to reflash, the phone is now back where it was earlier this weekend.
My question is, how do I now use Link2SD? Is there a way to wipe it clean and start over from scratch? Is there an alternative I should be using instead, to take advantage of all the room on my external SD card?

Can anyone just tell me if I can wipe Link2SD back to the original conditions? Or anything like that?

Just download and install the PC software MiniTool Partition Wizard.
Connect the SD card to PC via card reader.
Open the software and format the ext4 partition that you created from the memory card for Link2SD
Now remove and put SD in phone and try using Link2SD

I'll have to repartition the SD card every time I flash a ROM if I want to use Link2SD?

Yes, because the symlinks will be broken each time you flash or format

Okay, thanks for the info.
