App2sd for gingerbread xplay - Xperia Play Android Development

i wasn't able to find any thread about app2sd being used in xplay. has anyone tried it yet?

most of us just use.
adb shell set pmInstallLocation 2

Does this alternative method break the widgets like a2sd does?

I've rooted my Xperia Play and removed bloatware etc.
I also installed app2sd. I believe you can run it without rooting, but i've never tried.
Works fine for me.
Anything that can be moved to the sd card, it will move it to the sd card.
So yea, works fine.

sort of, when you "next" install an app if it can be installed to sd it will be, but you will need to install all your old apps to sd manually through applications/manage move to SD

Guys your missing the point. For starters apps2sd+ is much faster than googles version because it uses androids native file system, it also lets you move the dalvik cache to the sd ext. And most importantly it lets you move widgets and apps you wish to sync to the sd card

is it this way:
Code:

or simply in a line?

Can you tell me, where i can download app2sd+ ? I heard a lot about it but i never actually saw this app. Im planning to buy Xperia pro and this is quite a problem but it wouldnt be, if i will have 32GB sdcard and this working app.

First way you'll first get shell, then you have to execute second line command, and exit the shell with exit command.
Second way you send set pm... command to the shell and it automatically closes without you having to exit it manually - like a .bat file on Windows, or .sh on Linux.

Is it possible / OK to uninstall default apps?

Hi folks,
I have installed the Steel web browser and like it much more that the one supplied by HTC with the phone... is it possible to uninstall it and just leave Steel?
The above is just an example, my HTC hero has lots of stuff I don't really plan to use, ever. Is there a way to get rid of them FOR GOOD?
Thanks in advance!

I'm so with you on this one...I've added Twidroid and turned off Peep but would love to completely delete it in order to avoid any conflicts. Also the default messaging program is a bit of a dog when compared to Handcent SMS.
There used to be a way on the WinMo 6 phones to change the registry values to allow deletion of TouchFlo UI programs but I've not been able to find anything online yet. Maybe it's too early in the phone's life for anyone to have cracked this.
At the moment, the only thing I can do is to make sure that notifications from default programs that I have replaced with better ones are turned off so that they only come from the new software.
I realise this doesn't help you (or me) very much but I'd pay good money to have an add/remove program that works on the default apps (ASTRO, Appmanager and OI File Manager do not seem to be able to access the default programs for uninstallation).
Does anyone with modding experience (obviously I don't ;D) have any suggestions on how to achieve this?
DBR
i have installed QuickUninstall app and it offers all the built in apps as well as the added ones....didn't try to delete any though, they don't bother me that much to toy with it just yet
Kewl...thnx for the heads up. QuickUninstall is downloaded. I'll try to get rid of Peep and the inbuilt message program and if something goes wrong I'll be back here begging for more help

I've had some success with Root Explorer - I've successfully removed the stocks app and the stocks widget.
Big pointer before you start on removing default or stock Rom apps is to MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!! You can do this by booting the temporary Recovery image from the rooting thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543571
That way, if you do mess up, you can restore the Nandroid Backup.
Just ask Auntie Dayzee (BTW I wish I was this sensible with other stuff in my life!! LOL)
I need to partition my hard drive and install Windows in order to use Nandroid and root the phone (you need to root it in order to use root explorer right?).
As soon as I find a way for the installer to find my hard drive I'll poke you for advice, thanks dayzee
Does anyone know what's the name of the web'n'walk app? Can't find it in the app folder.
It's not an app afaik, it's just a shortcut.
all it does is open the default browser to the t-mob web and walk homepage.
Oh.. do you also happen to know where I can remove it?
Nevermind, found it in the app folder as "urlshortcut.apk"

As far as i understand, ADB works in Mac and Linux as well, you just need to prefix the commands with ./
or have i missed something?? there's no point installing windows if you don;t have to....
how did you do it?

Hi Dayzee,
noob here. i just rooted my htc hero and i have root explorer running.
can you explain how you removed those apps?
I want to ditch peep, footprints and possibly pc synchronization (if this is safe).
I am a little lost in this file directory structure...
...or could you point me to a really great link on this topic?
thanks so much,
sprinkles
had success using Paul's method on Modaco...all credit to him in my case.
http://android.modaco.com/content/htc-hero-hero-modaco-com/291521/if-you-want-to-remove-htc-sync/
Used a file explorer (astro in my case) to view the folder /system/app so that i could see what needed to be removed, but am now happily without Peep, Learn More, Stocks,HTC Sync, Mail etc.
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/xxxxxx
replace xxxxxx with the app you want to remove
HTC Sync - PCSCII*
HTC Stocks and Widget - *Stock*
Peep - *Twit*
Learn More - Learn*
Footprints - *Foot*
Mail - HtcMail*
there's plenty of others in there as well if you have a look. Just be sure to be careful what you delete, and remember that the app names are case sensitive.
The rooted 2.73 rom from Modaco works fine with this command, and i expect the Modaco custom roms will as well.
I used a similar method to get rid of some HTC app which kept bugging me since I upgraded to the new ROM (Peep, Stock, etc), works perfectly and no problem so far.
It's pretty straightforward, even for a newb like me, but if anyone is interested in the steps I followed :
0- Before doing anything that can mess up your phone, it's recommended to do a nandroid backup.
I'll explain how to backup each removed app individually, but we're never cautious enough !
1- Load the recovery image and mount the system:
Code:
fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img
adb shell mount /system
2- Get the list of app installed, spot the files you want to delete
Code:
adb shell ls /system/app/
3.a - First alternative : Backup on SDcard and delete
Mount sdcard.
Create a folder saveHtcApp.
Move (copy + delete in one go ! ) files from system/app to saveHtcApp
Code:
adb shell mount /sdcard
adb shell mkdir /sdcard/saveHtcApp
adb mv /system/app/Stock.apk /sdcard/saveHtcApp
adb mv /system/app/Stock.odex /sdcard/saveHtcApp
adb mv /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.apk /sdcard/saveHtcApp
adb mv /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.odex /sdcard/saveHtcApp
Then check that all worked right by doing some ls (Yeah, I'm found of double-checking)
Code:
adb shell ls /sdcard/saveHtcApp
adb shell ls /system/app/
3.b - Second Alternative : (don't do it after 3.a !) Backup on Computer and delete.
(on Windows, I assume Linux's folks won't need explanations to do the same on linux.)
Create a folder saveHtcApp : in the following example, in the working directory.
(Of course, you can make it anywhere, but it make the path smaller to work on working directory... and move the save folder afterwards)
Then pull (copy) the files from the phone to the computer.
Just to make sure, a little dir to see that all files were actually copied on the computer.
Code:
mkdir saveHtcApp
adb pull /system/app/Stock.apk ./saveHtcApp
adb pull /system/app/Stock.odex ./saveHtcApp
adb pull /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.apk ./saveHtcApp
adb pull /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.odex ./saveHtcApp
dir
Then, delete them :
Code:
adb shell rm /system/app/Stock.odex
adb shell rm /system/app/Stock.apk
adb shell rm /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.odex
adb shell rm /system/app/com.htc.StockWidget.apk
4 - Reboot the device !
Hope that could help someone.
Tested on Brown French Hero, 2.73.405.5 ROM offi.
Brill stuff - I'm rubbish at the coding stuff - where does this back the apps up to? and what does the dot do? and if its pulling to the PC, does the slash have to go the other way?
Dayzee
Good question, I should have explain that a little
I'll update my previous post.
For the slash-thing... I'm always switching from windows to linux to windows, so I'm always confused between which slash use.
When I have issue with /, I try with \.
BTW, in the present case, I run all those lines on Windows 7 without any issue.
Edit : post step-by-step edited. Is it clearer ?
If anyone see anything to change or explain, just say so.

great and thanks. while you were sleeping, i went in and did some removals; just the apk files. what about the .odex files?
I took these apps out at the knees
-peep
-footprints
-tutorial
any other suggestions?
thanks.
Hey, I wasn't sleeping ! Just finding a way to save on sdcard instead of pc and re-redacting the post ! >.<
I didn't knew what was an odex file either, so I googled it :
http://groups.google.com/group/android-framework/browse_thread/thread/70ee61a240edc84a?pli=1
They are created for a final system image. They are not required --
if they don't exist, the system will create them in /data during
boot.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I backuped them too, just in case...
For the suggestion, the list to remove is pretty simple : anything you don't use at all.
As long as you keep the backups, there shouldn't be any problem to put them back if there is any issue.
Of course, any app used by other apps must stay on the phone.
I removed :
Stock
Peep
Footprints
Tutorial
HTC Sync
rhedgehog says he removed HtcMail too.

thanks dog.
technically, if you wipe the device and start over all these apps are reinstalled from the get go.
this list is great. i am going to do some more cleaning and move onto the next task of partitioning my storage.
dayzee did a wonderful job for that newb root posting...i wish there was locked how to list that was easy enough for anyone to:
-1- root the htc hero (completed)
-2- remove and replace htc's crapware apps (maybe this thread is part 2)
-3- partition storage (not seeing an easy way yet but downloaded apps2sd)
-4- recommended replacement apps and next steps
i'd be glad to help put this together, make it easy to read, make it pretty, etc.

Not a bad idea, you're on your way !
I want a pretty, clean, post with colors, pics, screencasts, videos, nice fonts...
Good luck with that !

[HOWTO]Enable greyed out "Move to SD"

Found it in for HTC Desire http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=742379
but tried it on our Optimus One and it worked.
Root access is required else you will get a "killed" reply
Majority, not all apps will have the button enabled.
Always backup your phone (nandroid) before trying anything.
You will need terminal
Download Terminal Emulator from Market. (or any terminal software)
type the command below
Code:
su
pm setInstallLocation 2
if you see "[1] Killed pm setInstallLocation 2" means it didn't work
if it replies with "#" means it worked.
now open up settings->manage application and check out which applications have the move to SD enabled.
NOTE: SD card loads slower than the phone. So you will need to know what can be moved and what is better left in the phone. If an essential app is required on boot and the file cannot be found because it is on SD (which isn't loaded yet) you might run into some problems.
Some apps like Facebook can't be moved to SD.
Yes, I know there is A2SD it I can't get it to work on stock rom so this is my other alternative.
Or you can just install "Move2SD Enabler" from market.
Yeah,that is another way for non rooted users I believe.

[Guide] How to install Ubuntu Linux on your phone [1.0 Coming Soon]

Sorry guys this no longer works...
Ubuntu removed alot of the files needed to run it on a phone off of their website which is why you are getting the errors on the script to try and install it.
Recapped:
Here's what I mean the website the script is going to to get the files no longer exists...
Heres an example to see for yourself: http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/pool/universe/t/tightvnc/tightvncserver_1.3.9-4_armel.deb
I will try and find a new link to plug in but for now it DOES NOT WORK!

-Disclaimer-
This has been tested on my phone and runs perfectly fine, I am not responsible for you breaking, bricking, or dropping your phone on the floor and causing the USB cable to fall out and blow up your device.
Pre Requirements:
A rooted HTC EVO 3D or Sensation 4G
A S-off'd HTC EVO 3D or Sensation 4G
netarchy's kernel (Silverneedle Test5)
Android SDK
The USB drivers for your phone. (x32) (x64)
A microSD Card
2.3 GB Free of space on your microSD card
Know how to read to directions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The intense Procedure:
1. Download this version of Ubuntu. [Download #1] [Download #2]
2. Unzip the Ubuntu folder to your desktop and if you want, delete the compressed one you downloaded.
3. On your phone go to Settings > Applications > Development and turn on USB debugging.
4. Plug in your USB cable (from your computer to your phone) and mount your (mirco)SD card.
5. Move or copy over the unzipped / normal Ubuntu folder. This will take a long time unless you have a class10 microSD card.
6. After moving / copying that file over, tell your phone to unmount the (micro)SD card / Set the phone to Charge Only mode.
7. Now on your computer, go to where you have Android SDK installed. (Example on my computer: E:\Program Files (X86)\Android\android-sdk )
8. When in the main SDK folder, hold shift and right click a blank area and then click on "open command window here". It should of opened the command line window with the directory of your SDK already put in. If not type cd "C:\Your directory or location of your SDK"
9. Now type "cd platform-tools"
9.5. (Optional) "type adb devices" and check if the computer recognizes your phone. If not you need to reinstall your drivers from the download link above in the requirements.
10. Type "adb shell"
11. Type "su" so we have superuser permissions
12. Type "cd /sdcard" so the directory is changed to the (micro)SD card
13. Type "cd ubuntu" so the directory is changed to the Ubuntu File
14. Type "sh ubuntu.sh" so we can install Ubuntu
15. Type "bootubuntu" to start up Ubuntu. Next time you enter Ubuntu, you just need to type "bootubuntu" from your /sdcard/ubuntu directory, there is no need to run ubuntu.sh again.
16. If you got "[email protected]" in the command line, you have sucessfully installed Ubuntu. If not make sure you installed netarchy's kernel. If it still does not install correctly please try a different ROM, I have only tested this on SteelROM 1.1. *AFTER INSTALLING ANY ROM, YOU NEED TO REINTALL THE KERNEL.*
17. Now type "apt-get update" to update Ubuntu to the latest version. Then "apt-get upgrade" to apply the update.
18. Type "apt-get install tightvncserver" to install the vncserver. (Your telling your phone to read off it self pretty much.)
19. Type "export USER=root" To make yourself a user / the user
20. Type "vncserver -geometry 1024×800" to set the screen resolution you want to display on your phone. Remember you can always zoom in by pinching, so you don't need to make this that much smaller. You should also get prompted to set a password, do so. You will need to remember this password to log in.
21. Download the AndroidVNC Viewer off the Market here.
22. Open the viewer, and put in a nickname, your PASSWORD FROM ABOVE, and for the IP Address put: 127.0.0.1 for the port put 5901. THEN SCROLL DOWN and make the COLOR FORMAT 24-bit colors (4bpp).
And finally, hit Connect to launch Ubuntu on your phone!
For Mac users:
Finder -> Applications -> Utilities (folder) -> Terminal
When you cd to where your adb is located, cd is lowercase as are most all unix commands.
If you're unsure where to go, get to adb in your Finder, right-click, get info, the pop-up will show you the path. Note in unix that the folders (subdirectories) are separated by / and not by \ like in Windows.
Once you're there, the only trick you need to know is to tell unix that adb is located where you are, so you change the adb shell command like this:
./adb shell
That's about it, all other instructions once you're inside the phone shell are the same.
OBTW - after the unzip of the initial file from the OP, just drag and drop the whole ubuntu folder to your NO NAME drive (normal sd card formatting doesn't get a name at the factory, so by now you know that your sd card mounts like that anyways I'd suppose - just put it here in case).

I posted a different script a few pages back that I think will help you guys. I modified it so we should have no trouble with apps in sd.. I finally got a bigger sdcard so I can test this stuff and this script works great. Please guys try this script. If you download it in phone it will change the name and add a bin on it I think, so rename it accordingly and make sure it gets into /system/bin with the right permissions (755 or rwxr-xr-x), then run it

FAQS
FAQS
Do I need to have everything in the android-sdk downloaded and installed?
No, you just need to have the base sdk.
When I tell the command prompt to adb devices, my phone does not show up!!
Make sure you have installed the proper drivers for your phone and for your correct operating system
I'm not getting "[email protected]" when I type / copy-&-paste "bootubuntu"
Well, this could be for a various amount of reasons, first make sure you have a rooted HTC EVO 3D/Sensation. And by root, I mean a full root, not just a temp root or S-off. If you still do not get "[email protected]", flash your device (or go though your data folder and delete all the ubuntu files, then delete the ubuntu file off of your sd card and clear your caches.), and retry the above steps. If the problem still persists, then please PM me with your exact problem.
I'm having issues within the VNC, and I get an error message when I hit "connect".
Make sure you typed your password correctly, the passwords are case sensitive. If you still cannot get in, make sure your IP Adress is set to "127.0.0.1" and your Port(s) are "5901".
The colors on my screen look all weird and disorientated, how do I fix this?
Close Ubuntu, and re-open the VNC application, then scroll down to "Color Format" and tap on "24-bit color (4 bpp)".
The on-screen keyboard does not work and I get a different letter or character for whatever character I type!
The on-screen keyboard will work now, if you install LXDE.
I'm not good with reading text! I need a video demonstration!
For a video head here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbunTRzEQCI
How do I close Ubuntu?
Two options here:
1.Logout of the server and go to your homescreen and push menu, then go to settings, then Applications, then Running Services and close any remaining open part of the server program. The service may re-open later, do not close it though. It won't use up a noticable amount of RAM, just enough to make sure the application opens quick again.
2. Logout of the server and use your favorite task killer to close the server process. The service may re-open later, do not close it though. It won't use up a noticable amount of RAM, just enough to make sure the application opens quick again.
FAQS should be in order chronologically (until the end of them).​

As I See YOu Directly Type : pm set install location 2 , you must type 1 . adb devices 2 . adb shell, 3. pm set install location 2...
that method 100% works on Xperia Arc/S ...
P.S
now i will upload images that must be installed before doing anything,,, open sdk tools and install these packages which you see installed on my pics...firstly see maybe if you have already installed...

Awesone, man!
That 's exactly what i want to see! While i am searching about ext of sd card, fortunately, i see it! Now, I don't need to worry about the lowness of internal memory and I don't need to do too many steps to make a ext, too! Thanks! Your way is easier and more convinent so much!
thanks!
Was looking for this/ similar. Thanks a lot
This is just my opinion:
The MOD is worth trying but...
I have done this modification twice and was able to move more apps to my SD-Card.
Both times I felt the performance of all my apps was reduced enough for me to revert back.
The sluggishness was subtle but I felt my normally zippy phone was slower.
I also felt there was a lag even when my Arc S was overclocked (1.6ghz) and I applied several different SD cache settings (SD 32gig, Class 10).
In the long run, I am better off managing the the number of necessary apps and keeping things zippy.
Thanks for the guide, the mode may work for others.
Xperia Arc S, Vengeance Kernel.
Kind Regards,
i wil try it soon in my arc:highfive:

i got out of space error after doing this even both my internal and external has 1gb free memory. how to undo this?

[Q] apps are permanently installing in internal

hello i have moto e ... this is a good phone in a low budget.. but the app installing option is really pathetic... i could not install high end games on my device ... thus i found a way a way to change the default app install storage .. using adb shell ...
using these commands
adb devices
adb shell pm set-install-location 2
adb shell pm get-install-location
then it shows 2 [external]
then i tried to install whats app it installed in ext sd ..but all other apps were installig in phone internal memory..:crying:
then again i used those adb commands.. as written bellow
adb devices
adb shell pm set-install-location 0
adb shell pm get-install-location
it shows 0[auto]
but all apps are installing in internal ..except subway surfer... and the "move to sdcard" option is not working for all apps.. i mean this option is not highlighted ... or not available.. but before doing this all adb commands it was possible to move some apps on sd ... :crying: now it is not possible for any app. for example messenger app is not possible to move ... some please help ... give me a perfect solution for this issue ..... i wanna move my apps on my sd..
Yeah.. In Kitkat there is restriction to move apps to sd. To overcome that restriction follow these steps :
1) go to my thread here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/guide-apps-games-to-sdcard-completely-t2869925 and download the app after reading instrctions.
2) install app and that's it. the settings are changed. Now install link2sd or any other app that moves apps to sdcard by native app2sd method. This works on Moto E as i had tested it.
3) Press THANKS to support me.
