[Q] Switching SD Cards NO Apps2SD - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a G1 rooted with the SuperD 1.9.3 Rom, I never partitioned my SD card or anything like that. I want to upgrade my SD Card and partition it to get Apps2SD and keep the same Rom. I am not sure what steps to take...

Which recovery do you have? If you don't yet, make sure to upgrade to Amon_Ra latest. Once you have that, reboot into recovery, select partition card and follow directions on screen. This will wipe your card completely so backup anything you want to save. It will not affect your rom in any way. You may have to move your existing apps manually, not sure.

How do i know what recovery i have? Do I partition my current sd card or the new one?
So I do not need to reflash the Super D?

You would boot into recovery and look to see which one you have, it will say it right on top. You will partition your new card. Absolutely no need to reflash your rom, it will recognize your ext partition and install all future apps in it automatically. As I said, I'm not sure about existing apps, you may need to move them manually.

It says Android Sysem Recovery Utility Build: JFv1.42 There is nothing that says Partition SD or anything like that... Now my rom is on my current sd card if I don't flash it to the new one my phone still knows what rom I have? Sorry about all the questions thanks for your help =)
I was thinking of doing this to install Amon RA's recovery img
I got it from another forum in here....
Copy recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0.img to the root of your sdcard
Boot into your current custom recovery (boot while holding HOME)
select console from the menu
#mount -a (this can give back an error if you don't have an ext partition, don't worry about it and just proceed)
#flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RA-dream-v1.7.0.img

JF's recovery does not have that option because it's really, really, really old. We did not even have apps to sd back then.
Flash RA's recovery (directions seem right, I assume you got them out of RA's thread), you'll see the difference: many more options, etc
Good luck.

Ok, so I am going to do the following steps....
1. Flash Amon Ra's recovery image
2. Reboot phone
3. Get into recovery again
4. Back up my sd card on the computer, remove sd card from phone
5. Insert new sd card, partition sd card
6. Transfer files from old sd card including update.zip which is the rom
7. Reboot phone
Let me know if I'm missing something thanks for all your help!
I'm going to do this over the weekend...

Ok, so I got the new Amon RA recovery image but haven't done anything else...lol. So can you tell me if those steps are right? And why don't I need to flash the rom again...I currently have it on my sd card...I'm a bit confused

1. Reboot to recovery. Partition your card (I suggest 512mb for ext partition, rest is fat, follow instructions within recovery).
2. Upgrade ext to ext3.
3. Reboot (your phone will move your existing apps onto sd.) It may take a while to fully boot, just give it 10 min or so.
4. In terminal emulator type
Code:
su
fix_permissions
5. Reboot again.
5. Transfer whatever you had on your old sdcard (music, pics, etc) onto your new card.
As far as flashing the rom again.... why? Your OP says you want to keep your existing rom.
To check if your apps were moved:
In terminal:
Code:
su
ls /system/sd/app
ls /system/sd/app-private
ls /system/sd/dalvik-cache
Should give you print-out of what you have on ext partition of your sdcard (or you can use root explorer or whatever other file manager, I'm a bit old shool so I prefer terminal or adb)

5. Reboot again.
5. Transfer whatever you had on your old sdcard (music, pics, etc) onto your new card.
Okay in step 5. Reboot again do I just type in the terminal emulator reboot or reboot recovery?
Also when you say "transfer whatever you had on your old card..." Do I also transfer the file that says update.zip?
Sorry for all the questions, I should be getting my new sd card today and will try it out tonight.
Thank you.

You just type reboot.
It is up to you what you want to transfer onto your new card. I assume that update.zip is your current rom. If so, it's nice to have just in case but it will not make any difference in how the phone works. It's just an install file that you use once (unless, of course something goes terribly wrong and we all have been there ) but it's nice to have all tools needed on your card so you can quickly recover from any problems.)
BTW, with your new shiny recovery (RA1.7), you don't have to rename your files to update.zip. You can name them whatever you want (i.e Super-D1.9.3.zip, Recovery.zip) and, if you decide to reflash something, at least you will know what it is. Your new recovery will let you choose which file to flash so you can have more then one .zip file on your card if you want.

Ok so I still haven't gotten my new card! It should be here next week...Anyways I tried using switchrom to store my current just in case but I get this error Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)
Any clues why I'm getting this do I need to have my phone connected by USB or something to a computer....?
Thanks hopefully I'll stop asking so many questions...I tried this solution but no luck

problem :
"E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)"
In the Android System Recovery, select "USB-MS Toggle". It will enabled/disable the feature. Do it one more round and it will solve the problem.

It's telling you that it can't mount SD card.
Back up all of your stuff from SD card, format it and try again, that's the only thing I can think of.

Actually, I just ended up doing a Nandroid Backup just did Nandroid not Nandroid +ext since I don't have this card partitioned...it is backed up!

Ok buddy its easier if you do the whole process through the sdcard
First you should backup everything on your sdcard and do a BART or NAN+EXT then partion your card and restore your BART or NAN+EXT and your good to go
If this does not work press my name and look at my threads because I ask this same quetion a while ago
Post again if this does not work

Hi, I tried doing a Nan+ext backup but I got this error : Run nandroid-mobile.sh via console I also tried doing a Bart backup and it also said Run Bart via console...
So I just did a regular Nan Backup...I don't have my current sd card partitioned...should I partition it so I can do the Nan+ext I currently have a 2gb card and it doesn't have a class number.... Maybe I should format my card?
Thanks!

Ohh ok I see ur problem it won't let u backup nand+ext if you don't have a ext
since you backed up already go ahead and throw the nandriod and any other files on sd card to your pc the format your sd create the app partion and swap partion make sure u formate it ext3 or ext4 depending on what ur rom uses put the nandroid back on sd after format and restore post if it works or not
If this don't work just reverse the process put nad back on pc format card to what is was before then put nand back on sd and restore

OK so I partitioned my current memory card =) and was able to succesfully do a nandroid +ext...so now when I get my new card I just have to go into recovery and do a nandroid restore and transfer all my files right? Thanks

Remember to partion your sdcard before transfer
Sent from my HTC Dream using XDA App

Ok so I tried switching my cards and formatted my new card,paritioned it, transfered the files from my other sd card, and tried to a nandroid restore...that's when I get the same error as before to do it from console.
I tried taking all the files out and repartitioning the sd card doing everything again no luck. Reflashed my rom and turned it on after it boots like normal I get a black screen. So just went back to my old sd card was getting force closes so did nandroid restore it said it did but would boot normal and get force closes.
So I reflashed my rom and reinstalled everything manually...from sd card as my market disappeared got it back after reinstalled it...
Any suggestions as I really want a bigger capacity memory card....=/

Great guide...again =] But this way is MUCH MORE stable.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=534714
ya i know i saw that guide. I decided to put this one up becuase it uses minimal commands and doesnt involve a lot of terminal usage and stuff. Just another way to partition i guess.
Ok I looked in settings and storage. This is what I have....sd card total 6,501mb available space 5,813mb sdcard secondary 1,048mb available space 829mb but for internal space it's showing 86mb. Did I do this process right? Is my internal space suppose to have much more space? When I download something it takes away the internal memory.

I knew it all could'nt go as smoothly as the new rom install ^_^
When I try to run apps2sd wether out of astro or from the app panel, it goes to a black screen, and thats it. The phone is not locked, I just hit home (after waiting for minutes for something to happen) and I'm back at my home screen.
I did'nt think I skipped any steps. Idea's ?

I have the right recovery if I upgrade from ext2 to ext3 will I lose all my apps?

This is why you don't partition your sdcard using this. It works most of the time but not always. Wipe and reformat your sdcard. Then reflash ROM

ext3 slowed my g1 down
I jus upgraded my partition using this guide and my fone seems WAY SLOWER. Is there anyway to downgrade safely back to ext2 without wiping the partion clean? Or do u recomed an app I already have an overclock app.
fixed problem!
I fixed the issue. Lol I feel kinda dumb. Just has to many processes running that where eating memory.
I am lost. I have the newer SPL and JF 1.51 adp. Why all of these steps for apps2sd?
Should it not be:?
1. Format card using a partition program and create ext3 / FAT partitions
2. Install newest Cy rom
3. It automatically moves the apps when it sees the ext3 related parameters.
Why all of the steps in this thread? Am I missing more brain than I normally do?
Why would I need the 1.3.1 recovery rom? Are all of these steps if you do not already have a JF rom?
Thanks!

Apps2SD2 detects if your card has been formated with an ext2 partition. If not it will format your sd card for you therefor not needing a computer program. The new reocvery 1.3.1 allows you to run the upgrade_fs command to format the ext2 to ext3 and also has other features such as gparted and fix ext filesystem.
my question is this...I already have cyanogen's rom installed...I have been away from a computer and the internet for about a week so I'm still on 3.6.5...which is fine with me.
In Cyan's thread, he says:
DO NOT RUN ANY OTHER APPS2SD APPLICATIONS ON THIS BUILD. YOU WILL BREAK YOUR SYSTEM. THEY ARE NOT NECESSARY BECAUSE THIS ROM WILL DO A2SD AUTOMATICALLY AND BETTER!

however one of the steps to partitioning the sd card in this post is installing apps2sd..

an odd problem

Howdy friends. I recently rooted and installed cyan 4.0.1/teds hero. Everything was going smooth until about 20 min ago. The messaging app kept force closing everytime I would open a thread, so I rebooted. Upon startup, it said my sd card is now damaged. I clicked format, and nothing happened at all. what's the solution? Any help would be appreciated.
i assume your doing auto apps 2 sd with an ext2/3/4 partition? go to recovery and repair ext filesystems. that should fix you up.
I did nothing beyond rooting / cyan / teds hero.

k. if you did not partition the sdcard, then take the sdcard out of the g1 (unmount it first in settings), and put it in your pc. try to get the data off of it as best that you can. repartition and format as fat/fat32. put the data back on it, then stick it back in your g1 and see if you can access it, etc.
good luck.
your sd card corrupted, gonna have to reform it, if you install the recovery image from the mytouch that is floating around in the android devolpment forum under new recovery that has an option of reformating your sd card.into 3 partions that would work for you than reflash your rom and theme
here is the link to it. just use in terminal (after putting on root of sdcard also make sure that cyanogen's 1.4 is on the root of your sdcard as well, also for safe keeping have your cm 4.0.x rom on sdcard too)
Code:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/recovery-RAv1.2.1G.img
reboot recovery
then once it boots into recovery use the option to format your sdcard into 3 partitions then once it is finished reflash your rom to activate apps2sd, then once it boots up go to the terminal and type
Code:
su
flash_image recovery /sdcard/cm-recovery-1.4.img
that way you will have easily partitioned your sdcard, got apps2sd workning, then return to a recovery image with a recovery console!
I agree with you on having a recovery console but that mytouch recovery is a great way to point noobs since it will easily partion the card for them

thats why i included the steps to going back to the 1.4 recovery after using maybe cyanogen will look into this for his next recovery image. i also sent nephron a pm to see if he would like to include it into his partitioning guides
I hope he does make it into 1.5 for us because it just his 1.4 with some great additions and just missing the console

Rooted Captivate, cannot install ROM

ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.0 will not mount /sd-ext and now I cannot get my ROM installed on to the phone.
everything inside the phone has been formated
I think the next step should be to update recovery to the latest version and see if it recognizes the sd card. If this is the case I'm not real clear how to go about doing this. , or if there is an alternative way to load a ROM.
Any help would be appreciated
As an alternative u could flash (through Odin) a Dev Kernel that has CWM baked in, reboot into CWM and flash ur Rom from there. Ur choice of Kernel is dependent on what Rom ur wanting to go to... Froyo, Gingerbread, i897, i9000, etc. [as a side note, if u want a gingerbread rom, u will need gingerbread bootloaders]
I'm not sure how to flash through Odin (ill look that up) any other recovery on my phone at this point, i've always had a rom installed any time I change or update a recovery.
Let us know how it turns out.

Help I cannot log into my phone

Hello,
So I was trying to install ICS on my nexus one... and like the idiot I am I made a NANDROID backup of my phone right before continuing with the installation of BlackRose. I made a partition of my SD card in Clockwork Recovery. With 1GB and a 256mb swap.
I rebooted the phone and see that my SD card is empty. Which probably meant my NANDROID backup was erased?
Is there a way I could recover this??? I just want my SD card data back .
And like a bigger idiot, I went back into Clockwork Recovery and did a factory wipe, (I thought I still had my nandroid backups), I tried to restore, but there was nothing in the SD card.
My main problem is that I want to restore my phone back to what it was... before I partitioned the SD card.
Right now I have a phone that is completely wiped and I cannot restart it because the setupwizard is bugged and force closes when I try to skip plus I don't have a system keyboard installed or a system launcher.
Stop using your sdcard for writing data and try this while the sdcard is connected via a card reader.
www.easeus.com/partition-recovery/
While you're at it, drop the SWAP partition. A waste of perfectly usable 256MB. You can find plenty of places where it's explained, why SWAP is a bad idea for Android.

[Q] SD Card can't be formatted nor add files to it.

Hi, all.
I have some problem on my previous sdcard (so sad :crying and it's broken.
Now i have a new sdcard (yeah...) and another problem appears!
I formatted my sdcard and it said that the sdcard formatted successfully, but when i mount my sdcard into computer, the existing files still there.
Whether i add some files into sdcard (for example: i just copied JB Mini ROM into /sdcard/John) and i rebooted my phone into recovery mode.
When i enter the recovery menu and want to install the ROM's zip, the file cannot be found. Then i copied JBMini's ZIP file once again into my sdcard once again. I mount my sdcard into my computer with "Mount USB Storage" in recovery. When i'm trying to install it, it says (bad) errors. Then i reboot my phone again and the files (JBMini ROM) dissapeared!
Can somebody help me?
If the recovery says "bad file" then that means that the zip is corrupted..
Retry downloading it/retransferring it to the sd card..

Hmmm...What ROM are you using? If you're using a custom one. Try getting back to stock Eclair 2.1 and check if it does the same problem. If so contact the shop where you bought the SD Card.
Man ...
You have a hard luck with SD cards!

Haha... I don't know anything.
Maybe i should throw this microSD from the uppest floor of high building, then go to the downstairs by stairs and get it back again.
It's not about corrupted ROM files or somewhat, but again, this is SD Card problem.
My sdcard have two partitions, FAT32 and ext4.
I had tried to format it from recovery, but it failed.
I had tried to format it from my mom's Blackberry (which is good in fixing corrupted sdcard, but failed with my first sdcard) and it couldn't finish the formatting process.
I had tried to open my sdcard on my computer and i format it and it said something like this : "Windows couldn't finish the format process" (My Windows 8 using Indonesia language)
I had tried to delete all partition from MiniTool Partition, but when MiniTool refreshed the devices list, that two partitions (FAT32 and EXT4) still exist.
What should i do now? I'm really confused with sdcard problems, what they (sdcard) wants?
Format the ext4 partition. Alfs kernel has that option in it's recovery. Then try again.
Note : Not responsible if your SD broke after this.

Looks to me like you've touched the write-protect switch on the sdcard.
Remove it and sllide the switch back again..
