you need a ext4 partition on your sd card and an app which enables you moving apps to sd like "link2sd", "s2e" or similar. And you need to root your phone.
Look a bit around in the ace section here on xda and youll find everything you need

addition : if you a user-type that like to remove your sdcard, better to use link2sd instead of any type extended-internal memory

Just switch off your phone before removing sd card.
I won't give up. I'll wait for you.

you must create ext3 or ext4 primary partition on your sdcard. to create partition, install mini tool partition wizard to your pc. then you can use link2sd to link dalvik caches to your sdcard. or, if you use cm7 as your rom, you can install s2e. to remove system apps, use link2sd

Are you linking the apk, dex and lib files or just installing (moving) apps to sd? You should create link to free up your internal space.
Take it from my experience. I used stocklite for almost 5 months with link2sd. Linked all apps except for those with widgets or that i needed at boot left on internal. 80 apps, 50 mb free on internal.
If you change to cyanogenmod you won't have more internal space, same space, different rom. When you do the required wipes with cwm (which you should to install cyano roms) it will format and erase the partition. You'll still have your partitioned sd card, but all info in that partition will be gone.

I installed Cyno Mod 7 ROM and it works just fine and i have partitioned again and everything is fine now..but i backuped my stocklite and i dont have the original ROM which i used even before rooting how to get that 'the real one which i had when i bought the phone?' if i have that one ..i can change it to anytime when i want..

Carrier specific roms are harder to find than free roms. Go to sammobile and check if they have the rom that came with your phone.
The stock roms are all installed through your computer with odin and your phone in download mode.

Low Memory Should I Root?

I finally hit low memory on my N1 with only 20mb left I already moved all the apps to SD and clean cache and history. Now the question is does rooting solve this problem and how much more memory do you get ? (depending on the rom) Is there any solution without having to root the device? Thanks
Rooting by itself won't give you anything. You need to root and install A2SD or any other similar program/app, including a kernel that supports it and repartitioning SD card - and only then you'll get more space.
simple fix

i had this prob back in the day, what you got to do is go to apps2sd see which apps are unmovable then search for hacked modded versions which allow moving to sd. most updated versions of software allow this. i know a web site where u can get loads of modded apps2sd apps but am not sure if am aloud to post it here

This (as all other "true" A2SD utilities) will still require repartitioning SD card.
Yes it requires repartitioning.
After a long night of reading and having trouble on the command line I finally rooted my phone to CM7 2.3.3. I finally have more space and I can move apps like adobe flash to SD thanks guys. After playing with CM 7.0.3 I notice the piture quality taken with the camera are just horrible is there any fix for that?

[Q] motorola milestone problem with cyanogen mod 7

hi every one
i have moto milestone and rooted it , downloaded the cyanogen mod 7 and flashed it successfully" after wiping all cash dalvik and data partitions" and it worked in excellent manner but after installing a lot of apps and games and for some reason rebooted " or may be shut it down or even the battery was empty" and tried to restart the problem happened !
it starts normally for 2 or 3 minutes and prepares the sd card and starts force close/wait/report msg with the adw launcher and then stuck freezes and stop responding completely .
restarting by removing the battery for several times with now result!
wiping the data partition was the only solution but on account of removing all my installed apps!
tried backing the nandroid backup with all my apps installed and restoring it and no hope!
tried alot of other launchers like adw launcher ex , crazy home , regina launcher and miui and samsung pure breez some of them had the same problem and crazy home and i91 home struggled a little bit so i thought it was the launcher problem but after 2 or 3 days they have the same problem and the phone got freeze after every restart or power up
i am very sorry for very long description but only to let u know my problem entirely so what to do ? what is the problem and how to fix?
is this is due to the large no of apps or due to gapps installation or what?
help pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez

Its no good moving many apps to sd card... specially your launcher. If you do really want to do it, i strongly suggest you to partition your sd card via OR and add an ext4 partition.
Please refer to OR thread on how to do it if you are not aware of it.
One huge tip is after creating this ext4 partition, install S2E from market and READ the instructions.

The Milestone port of CM7 is not official, so there are bound to be issues. Under the assumption that it is not the ROM's fault, I suggest trying a different SD card. I highly suspect that it is just the ported ROM's compatibility issues, but you may still want to check the SD card to eliminate the possibility of your external storage being at fault.

I highly recommend using CMW for making the partition. I've had some problems making them through my PC. With CMW you just set the amount of size you want it and wait till its done.
Then install S2E.
yea its better to make it by cwm and its very easy....
but make sure you have the backup of you sdcard before partitioning...
Hey ! I just googled about partitioning sd card and found that CWM may brick your phone.. is it true ?

If your phone is rooted, follow these steps -
1) Download root explorer or file manager app from market.
2) Open the app
3) Go to system/app
4) Delete the following files
swype.apk
thinkdroid.apk or thinkfree.apk if you dont use thinkfree office(something like that, i dont remember the exact name)
youtube.apk
fmradio.apk and fmradio.odex
voicesearch.apk
voicerecorder.apk and voicerecorder.odex
etc..
Delete these files only if you dont use all these apps. Don't blame me later on.

Apps disappearing from EXT4 partition
Hi everyone. Since I see that at least part of this thread seems to be talking about Link2SD, I wondered whether anyone might be able to offer some insight into the problem I am experiencing.
Before that however, let me explain that I started off with an 8GB micro SD card with a 500MB EXT4 partition. I had been fast running out of space in the internal phone memory, and my SD drive itself was also filling up fast. When I installed Link2SD I managed to regain a considerable amount of free space on the internal memory.
The problem is though that once I had linked the majority of my apps to the EXT4 partition and backed up the device in that condition with CWM, once I rebooted the system all the apps that were linked had disappeared. However there are still some 244MB of files on the EXT4 partition that Link2SD says are in use, and I cannot delete them.
I then purchased a 16GB micro SD card from Samsung, and tried to restore the CWM backup to that card....my apps were missing apart from the few that remained on the FAT32 partition and in the phone memory....I should mention that this also happened before I installed the CM7.1 ROM.
Now things have really become problematic. I decided to remove quite a few apps, then download the latest version of Link2SD from the apps Market. But although there is now plenty of space on all partitions I keep getting the 'insufficient storage available' message, and I cannot install anything. I also did a CWM restore on the original 8GB SD card with the same result. This is why I cannot lay the blame fully on Link2SD, as there has to be a glitch somewhere in my installation.
FreeSpace [Root] shows the following on the 8GB based system:
Cache free space 20.7MB
Data free 16.6MB
Ext free 265.0MB
SD-card free 959.1MB
System free 48.2MB
So what gives? I really don't understand what's going on. I am running the latest CM7.1-RC1 Cooper-Grif ROM build number GWK74, with Kernel version 2.6.35.7-CL-562111 [email protected]#1 with all updates necessary. This is costing me more time than I can afford to lose on this, and I really need to find a solution once and for all, preferable without having to reinstall everything again from scratch, which is what I intend doing once the official Cyanogen Mod becomes available finally.
Thanks in advance, and apologies for the long post.

Make partition in cwm yet easy but...it will format your sd...on minitool is better if u have lots of thing on your sd...
regards,
•ƒγяύs ργяσ™•
I got some problems doing this. This is what I did:
I had many apps installed and moved to SD (8gb class 4), so I made a backup of the SD content.
I formatted it, and created 2 partitions (6.8gb and 515mb) using Minitool Partition Wizard. Both are primary and FAT32 (if I create the 2nd partition as EXT2 the phone says SD is damaged).
Moved my backup content again to the 6.8gb partition and rebooted the phone.
Looks like everything is right but Link2SD says "second partition not found".
What IM doing wrong?
Would Link2SD detect that 2nd partition if I flash my phone and I start installing apps now that my SD has 2 partitions?
IMHO from what I've experience, Link2sd does not accept fat partitions. I had the same problem.
Are you looking for the correct type of partition?
Start Link2sd>menu>More>recreate mount scripts and choose FAT32/FAT16

Rooted my phone, moved apps to sd card, dumped dalvik cache, but still full memory...

Hey every one,
Yesterday i rooted my phone using superoneclick (running android 2.2.1) because i was getting sick of the fact that my memory was running full.
After that i did this:
Deleted facebook to make space for link2sd (have no seccond partition)
Installed link2sd,
Moved apps to sd.
Installed facebook on sd,
Go with my root file manager into /data/dalvik-cache/ and deleted everything inside there (50 mb) but after rebooting my phone the memory starts filling itself again and my dalvik cache was full again.
What can i do to make my memory free? Im havin 12 mb free now, but thats not enoug....
And also, is it safe to move apps like calander to sd?
Thanks, domini99

as you are saying you have root then download a2sd froyo root open the app select the data storage as external then you can move almost all apps to external memory but it will also not leave many storage for you I will recommend you to first upgrade to gingerbread then partition your sdcard and use link2sd
First a question: can i go furder from herr or do i have to close this topic? Thanks!

First: the data of apps are in system/data/data then you not must touch the dalvik-cache, second: use install manager for move the apps on sdcard and not link2sd, install manager is better, third: you can move only the apps (apk) on sdcard but the data remain on internal memory then also if you install all in sdcard the internal memory it lowers, the only way for move all (apk+data) on sdcard is do a partition, without the partition you not can move also the data but only the apk, then for you now the only way for get more free memory is uninstall all useless apps.

Ooh. Eeerm.... Yeaaah... Well, see. Im not the smartest here...
Oke, i looked into data/data and therr was a lot of junk in from apps i already uninstalled, almost 10 mb! I deleted that and deleted dalvik, than rebooted and now 154 mb free!!!
I installed install manager, but.. What do i need to do with it? Link 2 sd i used to set install location and moved some apps. That did a lot for me. I always wanted a game, but that was 50 mb, and that will never fitt on the internel memory, but it only could on internel, now its on sd, and working great
Thanks for reply, im already helped that far to know how to take care of my memory.
But its still fine if someone can give me some tips, im brand new to root and i understand only 10% of everything....
Thanks

Titanium Backup FTW!!!
So, I used titanium backup to move some things from the internal memory to the sd card. It worked fine as now I have about 20-30 mb free on internal. and this is good.
Also, a 2 Gb sd card is ok, but a larger one would be perfect . I have a 2 Gb now and I'll need a larger one soon ).
Also I uninstalled all useless apps like: Facebook, Twitter etc ) All useless social apps, the park is much better also the school.
That's all I know. Hope it helps u somehow.
I have also internal memory so full (about 20mb free)

If you want keep using your stock rom you can use Doc_cheilvenerdi.org boot.img that can change our sams mount partition /data to sdext. :good:
Meeeh, stock rom sucks and is slow. I prefer cyanogenmod 7.2

[Q] htc salsa root not woking

i restarted my rooted htc salsa and the phone showed a low internal memory warning. I restated it again and it still showed the same warning and also, my superuser , link2sd , titanium backup , play store icons are not there. What do I do?
You need to elaborate more. You rooted your device and restarted it and got a low memory warning xcan mean anything. What rom is it? I assume stock. How did you root it? What else have you done ie have you done a recovery. Unlocked it etc. Post up Everything up you Have done in what order you did it.
I can help you far more with this info.

Thanks for the reply. I am a complete noob , so bear with me . I unlocked bootloader through the info provided at htcdev.com and then followed the tutorial on xda on how to root with s-on. I am using the stock rom and have installed CWM recovery. I have around 60 applications installed and whenever I reboot , my phone takes a lot of time to 'show' all the applications . but, today ,when I rebooted , my phone stopped showing play store, superuser,link2sd etc icons and also showed that the memory is too low ,even though I have linked all the apps to sd . Why is this happening?

ok im assuming you haven't made and ext3 partition on your sd card.
have you linked the apps via link2sd? if so which ones. sounds to me like the whole lots just crashed. have you backed anything up? im assuming you may have by using titanium backup.
if Google play and superuser have gone then its a system fault unless you moved them to the sd card in which case your sd card has gone corrupt. what internal setup are you using.
internal memory, what is it and how have or are you using it and what with.
sd card setup. similar to previous question but if using it with link2sd, how?

Yes I'd linked the apps via link2sd. all the user apps and some of the system apps , including PlayStore . Yes , I backed up using Titanium Backup :silly:
And I partitioned my card using CWM recovery v5.0.2.6 .. I don't know what ext it has made.
And I don't understand what you mean by internal setup and the last two points. Please bear with me , I'm a complete beginner .

lol you moved a system app to the sd card. your sd card has failed and removed the apps you moved across. recovery won't make and ext partition, you have to.
biggest no no is moving system apps to the sd or linking them.
example of my setup.
i use a mixture of different roms to suit my needs. currently CM7/my own depending on what im doing.
my sd card has a ext3 partition of 1gb on there. when we flash our roms we use various data2sd scripts, most work across the roms range some don't. this creates a stable non movable area without the need to link the apps to the sd thus creating a 1.15gb internal memory area.y
also means no moving of apps required as the internal memory is so large now.
what you have done is a common error, i did it when i first started on the salsa so don't be disheartened lol.
you can do a few things to correct this error.
backup you data and reset the rom in recovery mode, this will only clear the things that have been done now inc majority of root. you can try and reflash the root file giving back superuser again. not 100% this will work mind.
to get playstore back you can flash a package called gapps. listed in this area, check android development or use search.
most users now flash another rom, these always include superuser and most root applications required and have the ability to give increased internal memory.
check out these threads, these will give the basics to what you require.

just remember, never move a system app or link it to the sd card!
Thanks man ! I reset my phone and will start afresh ...
