New filesystem layout for Xperia V? - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hi,
I am running Neo's Homebuild of CM12.1
And right now I am running into space problems.
As you know the internal storage of the XV is formatted as 2GB and 4GB partitions. System and Apps are installed onto the 2GB partition. The 4GBs are mostly unused, since I save my pictures to en external SD-card.
Now I was wondering if it is possible to change the filesystem layout to have just one big internal storage to solve my space issue.
Kind Regards

Nice to hear that.
In the meantime I found this gem:

But did not have the time to test it.

this is more risky (if you do mistakes) then our method... also you can get even more space from your external-sdcard

Check third post in my CM12 thread.. You'll find instructions on how to resize the partitions.

Great. Thank you.
Did I say you are doing a great job on CM and your kernel?

NO !! but you need to copy all of your ANDROID folder into external card otherwise your earlier installed apps will not work (after swapping)

Why don't you give people a chance. You just opened it YESTURDAY.

May be if it was more informative. Apps don't change size depending on ROM. So have you used any file explorer to see if you have logs filling in or lost+found folder. SD maid like apps.

[Q] Do the Cynaogen mod and Slim Roms (kitkat versions) implement Apps2SD

Hi I am not allowed to post in the developers section yet.
Can one of the users of the new Slim ROM or Cyanogen Mod roms for Locked bootloader tell me if they also implement or allow Apps2SD or do you have to use either Folder Mount or Link2SD.
Thanks very much

I've didnt see such option from time when internal memory get more than 5GB.
Only whith apps 5GB of memory is enough. Link2SD or Integrated Apps2SD moved only APK files and datas like saves which is also stored in internal memory. For data files (games obb files for example) you have to use apps like Folder Mount, or mount folders by ownmade script, or "from finger" in Terminal Emulator.
That's a shame I'll stick with stock running version . 257

internal is more than enough... theres app called app2sd or link2sd... those should do it.. but things u have to rmember.. why sony dont put app into sd is it will make the app run slower n laggy... bcos the pathways is bcame complex and the read/write from external is much more slower than internal.. just put music n photo to external.. clear everything except apps into it.. that should do it
That confirms to me that I should stick with what I have currently.

look, i used link2sd to do a swap with sd and ext_sd but only move the dates of the app, there's another way to do it but i dont encourage to do it... look in you tube. I read about the last Agni Kernel has got memory swap (17-07-2014 AGNi pureCM v4.2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2197385
Regarding AGNi sdcard1<-->sdcard0 Switcher when enabled:
- original sdcard0 obb data is available at /data/media/obb
- new sdcard1 obb data is available at /mnt/shell/emulated/Android/obb
- original sdcard1 userdata is available at /mnt/shell/emulated
you can move data between these as required.

but it is for custom roms...
i have no idea if the agni pure stock kernel got this atributte

yup, but if you want to install heavy games into ur tab will be fall in the same trouble... the best solution to the low memory issue its make a memory swap of the SdCard to the ExtSd (I got a 32Gb one and have no problem with the left space in my tab).

Hi May I know where to get the stock rom 4.2.2? Mine is only 4.0.2....

Move data or obb to external sd

Well, it seems like FolderMount doesnt work on Lollipop and moto g 2014, so Im on Titan Prime ROM 1.0.2 and I was wondering if anyone knows an app that reallly works in the same way.
Thanks
Link2SD? I dont think so but you can try ^^

Email the dev, he is fast with hotfixes
For moving games to my SD card I flashed the necessary zip files and installed xposed installer. Then I searched for obb on sd in the modules section, installed it and did a full reboot but before booting I cleared cache and Dalvik cache. Then I downloaded whichever game I want that uses obb. When It finishes I just move the folder containing the obb file to sdcard/android/obb/*here* ..... Did this using Titan prime rom 1.1.2 on xt1063 ....I have not been able to get link2sd to work either, it wouldn't mount the second partition of my sdcard
