Is it possible to install a2sd on polaris.
apps2sd is not necessary. when you flash android (to sd or nand) you can decide to put all data on an sd partition.

Format 1 Partition FAT32 in sdcard root path have /andboot
I explained how to install the following.
1. FLASH THE ANDROID OS LOADER TO NAND.
2. Copy this androidinstall.tar under a folder named andboot at the top level of your SD Card.
3. When you're done flashing, your device will boot.
4. to start the Android Installer.
5. I selected System on NAND, Data on SDCard.
prompt displayed "unmounted invalid data argrument"
you must create a ext3 data partition on your sd card so ad this to your how-to
0. create 2 partition on sd:
1 -> Fat32
2-> ext3
and then continue with your list...

Are you sure of that ?
this method doesn't work for me with last dzo kernel and incubus RLS5
doest ext3 has to be logical or primary ?
Yes, i'm sure, format your sd card with 2 primary partition. The former will contain the installation files (Fat32) the latter will br you data partition (ext3)

Hi everybody,
I'd like to know what's ext partition and else...
for example all this :
- System: ext4
- Data: ext4
- Cache: ext2
- sd-ext: ext4 of 1gb
and how we do it and what's the use of it ? I've KYRRILOS 8.0 and G3MOD 2.0 OC
Thank you guy
I'm trying to figure it out 2.
I figured out for now that you can partition your sd card so you use memory on your sd card for apps(not internal phone memory).
Now I have problem to figure out how to set it up.
I also know if you have sd card class 2-4 you need app2sdv2 made by kyrillos13
and if you have class 6 or higher you need app2sdv3 also made by kyrillos13
I made partition of 1gb in CMW and downloaded app2sdv2(I have class 4 sd card)
you need to place it in on your sd card system/etc/init.d/
App2sdv2 and app2sdv3 are scripts for app2sd app.
There are some codes for terminal emulator wich is my emulator not accepting.
So I will join to you in search for an answer
Hi,
When I instal Link2SD and open it for the first time it asks for the file system for my SD card second partition and I select ext4, but after always gives this error message "Mount script cannot be created".
The rom I'm using is CyanogenMod 10.2 by Rashed97 and Kernel 2.6.35.10.
Anyone can help me with this please, I tryed many things but didnt worked.
Problem resolved...
I've updated Superuser and rebooted the phone and after link2sd created automatically a new script and mounted the sd card properly.
Cant know exatcly what was the reason but worked.
But now I'm having another problem, Whenever I try to converte to User App I get this message "Failure - pkg: 7cache/download/****.apk Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK]
Anyone can help me with this?
Mount script cannot be created.
If you store the Link2sd application in your memory card, it will not able to link to SD. Move that application to internal storage and use ext4 as second partition. It is working in my Samsung Galaxy 4.
solved for me
i had the same problem but got it resolved by....
connected the SD and phone using USB cable
backed up my files
i formatted the SD card created 2 partitions using Mini Tool Partition Wizard Manager, one with FAT32 and one with Ext4
exited the Mini Tool Partition Wizard Manager
DIDN'T safely remove the hardware from the taskbar
DIDN'T turn off USB storage
DIDN'T detach the USB cable from the PC
turned off the phone by the power button and disconnected the usb cable.
turned on the phone and opened the Link2sd app and chose ext4 and it created the mount script successfully
Hi all, same here, cannot create mount scripts.
MicroSD 32GB, recovery TWRP v2.7.0.0, rom CyanogenMod 11.0.0-RC11-p500.
Formatted SD-EXT (1024MB, no SWAP partition) in ext4 and now ext3, the mount scripts are not working.

Tried ext4, ext3, ext2 and even fat32... Not one of them works.
There is an app similar to Link2SD but working?
Or how can I use SD-EXT to extend the space for apps?
Thank you.

same issue here
Had similar problem also ("invalid argument" message). Problem in my case was that my CWR formatted to ext4 by my ROM do not want to work with ext4. So I used "mini tool" and formatted to ext3. Connect in CWR to PC and format , reboot, create script, ....
I solve the problem by not using the SD-Ext.
I'm guessing that this is something none of you are aware of as I don't see it mentioned in any of your posts...
Link2SD will fail if there isn't enough free space in /system.

For others who find their way to this thread
It appears this is an issue specific to the device - and that is an "unknown" until you try. I tried the above also - with minitool partition manager and easus partition manager and none of the partitions worked with Link2SD. Then I downloaded and installed app2sd (all in one tool) on the device and used the partition tool included with it to reformat the second partition. Be advised the app2sd version from google Play was full of absolutely ridiculous ads that I had to constantly escape and back out of or "X" out of at the top right or left corners - to get back to use the actual tool itself.
1. Ext2 format failed with an error (tried it twice even after wiping the partition)
2. did not try Ext3
3. Ext4 formatted successfully - but the mount script of Link2SD STILL failed
4. FAT32 formatted successfully - AND the mount script of Link2SD worked
I then uninstalled App2SD - and hopefully all the ads it brings
It should be noted even after successfully getting Link2SD working - it could not "move an app" to the SD card because it reported the device - a Teclast x70R was using "emulation" - but Link2SD reported it could "link" and move some files to the SD of some programs. I suspect the reality is the FAT32 file system has something to do with this as it cannot carry the permissions needed by UNIX type Operating Systems.
Others have said the EXT file system partition must be the first partition on the SD card; and while this had proved to be true with a PC hard drive when trying to install OSX as a dual boot Operating System - on my Android device it simply resulted in the SD card being unmounted - or failing to mount at all
It should also be noted that the minitool and easus partition managers COULD NOT successfully format the second partition of the SD card apparently either - because Windows technically only will recognize the first partition on a removable SD card type drive - apparently true even though they both reported successfully formatting the partition - when in fact it was ONLY AFTER reformatting using the app2sd partition tool did I get meaningful error messages - and/or that the FAT32 format of the second partition actually worked in Link2SD
It is another example of "go figure"
i'm trying to move the apps from the internal memory of my phone to the sd with link2sd but i can't, it says "mount script cannot be created / mount: invalid argument"
- i already have the partition of 1.35 Gb on my sd card
- i tried with ext2, ext3 and ext4 and it says the same
- my phone is a huawei ascend y210d
- when i check the partition of 1.35 Gb it says "unmounted"
- i also tried menu>more>recreate montage scripts
- obviously is rooted and link2sd has superuser access
- android 2.3.6
please help!
I have made two partitions 900mb ext3 SD-Data and 80mb ext3 SD-Cache partitions. But the data is always stored in the internal data partition. Any help?

you have to mount /data and /cache in respective partitions.
use this script https://raw.githubusercontent.com/t...r/flashable/system/etc/init.d/40twn_oc_helper
