Well, i'm using Django Manouche ICS Rom x1.4 (before, i was using Flex Icer 4.2) and my problem is how i can made a swap between Internal SD with the External SD, because with the 6 GB of the Internal SD i can´t install a lot of games.
Sorry for my English, i speak Spanish!!
Thanks!!!
i have the same problem with yours...

Directory bind
For now, there is no way to make that swap. But there are other solutions, like directory bind app. It can be found and downloaded here, from xda, just search a bit. With this app, U can map directories on external sd, to internal sd. I'm using it with DJMX 1.4 and it works fantastic, stable. Using the m version of directory bind.

Thanks for answer!!! i knew before of "directory bind" and i was testing in ICS and the app can't working good.
I will test the M version of Directory Bind if working good, Muchas Gracias!!!!
I'm testing "Directory Bind version M" in the ROM Django MAnouche X1.4 and was same that other version was using, not working good. Some idea?
I'm think seriously to come back to Cyanogenmod 2.3 for now... Thanks anyway

Just hijacking an old thread rather than adding a new one...
Has anyone tried hacking the environment variables in the framework so that the EXTERNAL_STORAGE variables point to /mnt/sdcard/external_sd instead of /mnt/sdcard?
It's not a full swap of internal/external SD, but it should mean that games and apps install by default to the external card without having to mess about with mounts.
If anyone has tried this and failed or just thinks it is a really dumb idea, let me know. Otherwise I'll probably just experiment with it myself and break my phone a few times...

Tried it out and it looks like it might work OK. Big thanks to Kyrie1965 over on this Xperia Z thread, I'm basically just porting his method over onto the O2X http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239289

If u want to store more than one android build in ur SD card u just have to make folders and put the build in there.example:
u want the gingerbread 2.3.1 bulld and the FRX04 build in your sd card
make a folder in ur SD named BUILDS(or anything that u want)
in this make a folder named ginger(for tha 2.3.1 build) and one frx04(for tha xdadroid frx04)
then edit the startup.txt from each built.add "rel_path=BUILDS/ginger"to the gingerbread build and "rel_path=BUILDS/frx04" for the frx04
"rel_path=xxx" this command changes the boot folder
Hmmmm...good....then how to choose it?? When we use GenY Dual Boot.

As far as I know, it needs editing of at least the init file at root.
Maybe an experienced user can confirm that.
I have had success at booting multiple ext2 installs, but it is very buggy for me.
Just started looking at Android.
Hello,
I'm one of the unlucky who used MeDroidMod and got his mic ****ed with the last update.. following by the blatant disregard for an open source community.
I really like the way IA2SD+ handled things tho, I've looked around but didn't find any other rom using it.
Is there any? Or can experts having used a few scripts like that can enlighten me about other and just as nice scripts to boost the internal memory?
Thanks
I don't know internally how iA2SD but it does seem to mount /sd-ext as /data, which basically all AD2SDX scripts do, so amarullz AD2SDX script should do, even though iA2SD is much better
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Yeah the idea of ia2sd is coming from a2sdx but on my second version with ia2sd app I changed all my script for a more optimized one and still the same idea but with the idea of choosing whitch app you want internal or external. Anyway, for now, I didn't really try my script on other version and medroidmod will continue to be updated event if the thread is closed, our Google code always contain the last version and will continue to update over ota too.
For your mic try 1.4.3 with full wipe first and backup before starting.
First time that don't have mic issue too.
New kernel, new drivers on that version
Thanks timbit123, I'll be sure to check it out. I rolled back to 1.4.2 for now - didn't have much time to full wipe yesterday.
I have to say your script really rocks. Other 2SD scripts usually ****ed up my backups, and restores, and I didn't like the fact I didn't know what was going where. If the 1X was released a few months later, I'd keep on using my N1 for a while thanks to you.
Timbit, I really think your ia2sd is a fantastic solution for our aging Nexus Ones.
Is there any chance it can be made available stand alone so that it can be used with any ROM? You could give it its on well deserved thread on XDA Android Dev forum (will it work on any rooted Android phone?)
Anyhow, could make many people happy
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Yeah as long the rom is compatible with init.d it should work without issue. I will probably make it installable from the ia2sd app. Just need some times to make this out and make tests

Regarding the mic issue, it still exists in v1.4.3 even though I did full wipe and format system before flashing the ROM. I had to wipe cache and dalvik-cache after the phone rebooted and that solved the mic issue.

ok, i'll build a version sometime next week and start a thread in dev section when i'll release a version. Probably it will be only the script because, application can only run in ics, not compatible with gingerbread. need some times to remake that application

oooh, Finally I can post here
Since the HTC Primo has similar hardware I thought that is not impossible to port its ROM to our lovely SE Xperia Arc.
So, I got the Leaked RUU (thanks for Football) and started working.
Actually, I couldn't touch the Sense but I realized that is possible.
I'm telling you what I did.
First, The BOOT.IMG:
I modified it to be compatible with our Arc. I had some problems with it one of them was the size, after I finished editing i found its size was only 3.7Mb and that is less than the correct size which needed by the bootloader but after adding filler file (thanks for DooMLorD) that wasn't a problem no more.
I also added a fully working CWM Recovery .
And end with 5.7Mb Boot.img.
Second, The ROM.ZIP:
After I replaced some files which allow the hardware and keys to work I had the same problem with the size, the system folder is about 500Mb and our device's ROM is only 350Mb !!! I believed that I can remove some files but once i got another idea i realized that wasn't the best solution so i moved the app folder from system to data folder I didn't give it a try before but i guess it will work.
Finally I wrote updater-script and that was difficult but always there is Google.
OK, now I'm facing problems with the file-system .
I've tried YAFFS2 after editing init files and finished with bootloop.
So I think this ROM needs EXT4 /system, /data and /cache .I'm about to format them with EXT4 but I'm a little afraid
So what you think guys ...?
---[Reserved]---
I'm no help here but I hope other more experienced people on this forum give the help you need, and best of luck on this project

It wont work because of the way SE devices work
Our partitions aren't the same ass DHD/Devices similar. They've method is completely different to ours, was an effort on x10 but died down due to the fact the devices/bootloader are different

Here is an idea:
Using SD card space might help..you can create partitions in sdcard and make a script that boots the os from SD card...is that possible??
Hi all!
Is there any ways of changing back the /system and /data partition to it's old place?
400Mb it kinda small.
No your stuck I'm afraid. Have a look at the Helly Bean rom which will use a different partition layout. That will have more space for apps.
Just move apps to sd card in settings.

you can mover few apps to system partition, this will give you more space.

Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Can't add all my apps to SD, because the OS would die of the lag.
It would be good to create a data forder in /system and link it to /data (it may be stupid).

App data is stored on /data when you move to sd natively. The rest of the game has to be read, so no lag at all. data stays on fast chip.

But the data that stored on my lil bit slow class6 sdcard makes the system slow.
By the way I can't see that speed up after the partition change. I hope pawitp will change it back.

You can do it yourself quite easily by compiling CM10 from source. All you need to do is revert the kernel and os changes that were made by Pawitp. After that you can build your own nightlies. Take a look at the guide to compiling CM10 from source thread. Also, here are the commits you'll need to revert:
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_aries/commit/0c3f5d384b092e6d9874faed0c1122c95e6ca32b
https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_aries-common/commit/8778488c4920d2245164a8c99f89e85f664e6a50
As you can see from my signature, I've already done this myself.

As we stand right now, with all the kernels/ROMs flying around... what would be a choice that would give us more space for apps? I only got 366 MB now on CM10 and in the last year the app sizes has grown (generally speaking). After installing all Gapps, some mandatory day-to-day apps and a GPS app I am kinda out of space for any other apps. That's sad... 4 years ago when I bought the phone I had ~100 apps installed (of course, the phone worked like c**p but the space was there).
Ok, I´m working on CM7.2 for our device, almost all works perfect except few things. I do some research, but I don´t come to any working solution. So I want to discuss with you, maybe you´ll help or give me some advice.
Sd card or internal storage isn´t mounted correctly (one of them), if I get to work one, another stops and vice versa.
In system/etc/vold.fstab
http://pastebin.com/mqAfxeEZ
In system/build.prop
http://pastebin.com/2pFt6Kmu
SD/internal (one of them) isn´t shows in filemanager. What is strange is that I find the non working one in folders! Okay, for example SD card shows properly and I find another storage in folder Root/ss (example for folders understand Root/mnt/sdcard)
If nothing better, is there a way how I can mount folder "ss" as storage or sd card?
I appreciate any help, thank you.
This rom has non working camera also (and I also found some strange things), after I solve major problems I´ll release it. I successfully ported Some Miui GB on it, but I would like to solve problems on CM7.2 and then I can work on port. Because this problems remain in port as well.
In safestrap sdcard shows in the same folder "ss"
Maybe you've already looked into it, but what about searching into Hashcode's CM7 build? for what i can remember, sd was working, but i could be wrong...anyway Hash himself could throw some advice
Sorry but i didn't have the technical knowledge to actually help you with code, but i am working on getting it
All Hashcode links on his builds are dead =(, as far as I know this is based on Hashcode and DrWowe work. I tried mount it as it is on original 2.3.4 for our device, but thats non working, there is some different mount technique or I missing some point.
Thank you for reply, I didn´t have much experience yet too. I hope so Hash could help me, or anyone whos interested.
i find it sad, that we don´t have any working cm7 for now or Miui, because I love this one.
That's why I started working on it, even though I do not have much knowledge needed.

Well, as of now, i am using eclipse rom, and in the vold.fstab the line are those:
Code:
# external sd card
dev_mount sdcard-ext /mnt/sdcard-ext:none:lun1 auto /devices/platform/goldfish_mmc.0 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc0
# internal eMMC
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 25 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.1/mmc_host/mmc1
They look different, maybe you could try something like this then in the build.prop the lines should change too, if i guessed right, with something like:
Code:
# Mount the internal SD card, too
ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/sdcard-ext
# ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES
ro.additionalmounts=/mnt/sdcard-ext
ro.vold.switchablepair=/mnt/sdcard,/mnt/sdcard-ext
Just look into your build, when you can, or i'll try with Hash's build when it's possible
It doesn´t work that way. I have already tried something similiar, this one mount blank folder, mine mount internal(or sd), but always only one of them. (I tried setting from steel droid for example) As I can see, some roms has different mount setting. Cm7 maybe has some original one, which I cannot deal with.
I get half working camera, yes! =D But not for very long...
Yeah, anyway i wrote BS on the build.prop part, the first line is wrong,

For the people who dont need this, the non mounted storage is still accessible throught filemanager, usb on pc mount it succesfull too. I see that camera is working on ICS builds, some of them, so I hope its not that hard to fix it on GB rom, maybe I´m wrong. I just need to test third party camera apps and see if one of them works. Maybe I need to merge some files from hashcodes cm7, but now I must really go =D.

and a full manifest (CM7.0.x IIRC):

The biggest hurdles I ran into, still centered around ducati sources for syslink 2.0 (codecs/camera).
In ways there is more for ICS/JB than there ever was for GB.
To do the camera correctly, you'd need to add more Motorola GB source to omx and dynamically link against their libs from the device used in the camera (libarc**).
