[Q] Recoving Internal Memory - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hi
I tried searching for simple answers on the forums my queries, no luck. guess i need to improve my search skills
I have rooted my LG Optimus One p500 running stock 2.2.2 V10E.
I don't want any apps residing in the internal memory.
When i move apps to SD card using app2sd some data of the app is still left in the internal memory. Why is this so ?
Will titanium backup move it completely ?
Also what app should i use to remove stock bloatware apps ? will titanium backup do ?
How do i clear dalvik's cache using a free app or using busybox ? Is it safe to do so in the first place.
Any apps that do a good job of clearing internal memory ?

I think you can't move the entire app to SD, even with darktremor's a2sd, the app still having some "parts" on the SD...
You can clear Dalvik Cache with Titanium Backup as well you can remove bloatware and backup yous apps and settings.

Thank you, will read through the forum post, long and a little complex for me..
will try to make it work though wish there was a rooted app which did this
.. just out of curiosity, how many apps do you have installed on your phone ?

About 0.5GB of them... Though, not using Data2SD, using Link2SD application from Market instead.

[Q] App2sd Mod (dalvik-cache to sd) problem

hello, i got a problem here with my x10 mini with app2sd (Mod), when i changed my memory card to a new one, the phone wont booted! keep lagging on the sony ericsson while logo there, but when i inserted the old memory card, it Booted!
Anybody can help me? thank in advance!
Apps2SD is not quite flexible you know about swapping memory cards, have u read THE thread?
Anyway, there's a new way to move app to SD, use Link2SD, latest version can move dalvik cache per app too.. so it's much more powerful then App2SD.

Just use Market and search Link2SD, it's already available there. When opened, it will list all the application and when you click one of'em, you'll find 'Create Link' button for moving it to SD ext2 partition. the latest one have a checkbox saying 'move this apps DC too?'.
Or go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=919326 for more info on that.

[Q] Link2SD vs. DarkTremor App2SD

Hi all,
I use a V10E stock ROM (2.2.2), rooted. I am running out of space, despite using Move2SD Enabler, and Froyo App2SD. So, I have been reading for a while now about DarkTremor App2SD and Link2SD.
Has anyone used DarkTremor a2sd on a stock ROM before?
How does it perform in comparison to Link2SD?
The problem with Link2SD is that it does not move the application data to the ext partition. I have about 170+ apps installed, so they have tons of app data.
What do you guys recommend?
I have a follow up question
what's the difference between the two?

Neither does dt's a2sd. If you are really running out of space with those, the only option left is ungaze's data2sd which moves entire /data partition. It is quite experimental and the author is MIA at the moment.
Maybe you should just download something like CacheMate first and clean up the cruft? I have 200+ apps and 100+MB left on internal storage.
I don't think use DT A2SD on a stock ROM.
I'm using Link2SD (not stock ROM) and so far it's going pretty well. I have well over 50 apps installed and the internal memory stayed the same, at 153 MB free.
Thank you guys for the prompt reply.

I use cachemate on daily basis. And still the same.
I had a GT540 before and I used something called autorootapp2sd by joe.stone. It gave me the choice of which folders to move to the ext partition (dalvik-cache, apps, apps/data,..etc). But this used to work on 2.1, so it can mess up with 2.2.
DT a2sd doesnt work on stock roms. Link2sd works fine.

Link2SD does do this, but not by default. You can select which apps for Link2SD to affect. The reason why is that some apps and widgets you DONT want moved to the SD or they stop functioning properly.
I'm running Link2SD on stock LGP509T (optimus T) with Froyo 2.2

Can't install big apps from market

Hi, I just bought some apps in the 10 billion downloads promo, but I can't install any app that weights more than 20mb, it says I don't have enough memory, but I do, I have 90mb on internal memory, and more on SD card. How can I fix this? By the way, I just screwed something in my phone, so I was forced to reflash CM7.1, but the problem persists.

move cache to sd using darktremors a2sd script......
______________________________
Press thanks if i helped
Hmm I just installed it, but I can't get it to work, tried A2SD gui, but it gives me an error, I also tried "a2sd check" in terminal, but I'm getting lots of "/sbin/busybox: Permission denied" errors. Tried 2 versions of A2SD, the one from CF-root thread, and newest one from darktremor site.
Do you have root ?

never encountered tht but here is how i managed to run dtapps2sd :
1) install new rom n wiping data cache etc.
2)reboot in recovery ... mount system ... install dtapps2sd.zip...
3)reboot system ..... go to terminal emulator n type a2sd install......
Yep, if I didn't, I couldn't install a2sd in the first place.
None of these instructions helped me. The problem is a combination of issues related to Samsung's devices and the Market application's design.
What did was a simple app from the Market called "MarketFix." (Requires root.) It moves your Market app cache from the device to your SD card FAT32 partition.

Yeah, what he said. Install S2E to move the Dalvik Cache to the SD freeing more internal memory than any other app.
Here's a screen shot of S2E working its magic on my phone;

S2E is only for CynogenMod.
You can try using Link2SD, its good too.

Hey had the same problem just deinstall android market app updates, so that you will get the old version, then it shoulds work

That still limits you to about 24 MB max on a download, even if you can miraculously end up completely clearing the cash.
MarketFix app from android market completely eliminates the problem.
Well, something got screwed up, and sd-ext doesn't want to automatically mount on boot, and the script I made to mount it doesn't work. BUT MarketFix took care of this error, and now I can install those apps Thanks IrishRed.

Hit the button!
1. Your device must be rooted
2. Partition your sdcard
3. Install darktremor / S2E

[Q] Question regarding clean ROM install

Hi, this is a dumb question, but I want to do a clean install of Jellybeans 14 (or 15 when it's released).
After the install, is it advisable to restore apps/settings through Titanium backup or a similar application? Or do you guys reinstall all apps from Google Play and reset all settings manually instead and start fresh?
Thanks!
A lot of people do it both ways.
I personally use Tibu but only restore the apps. There were a few apps I used to restore data with the apps and after having bugs with those apps I just decided to use Tibu to install the apps without data. I do have a separate backup folder that has full app and data backup just in case I would ever need them.
Most people recommended using Tibu to restore apps only but each phone is different and you may have no issues when restoring apps + data.

I usually restore data on games and a few other apps that are difficult or time consuming to set up. Otherwise, I just restore apps.
Thanks everyone!
I have a couple more questions:
Do I have to install a ROM downloaded into the external SD card, or should it be installed off internal memory?
If I do SD Swap, which directory should I download the ROM into?
Thanks!

I always put the ROM I am flashing onto my external SD but thats just cause I have more room there and like to keep a few different roms. As for SD swap the only thing I know about it is that it absolutely will not work on AOSP ROMS, but for flashing I dont think it will affect anything. I could be wrong though.

Problems with Link2SD and "system/user partition"

Bye at all
With Link2SD i moved a lot of applicaton to the system partition, but i had problems with shazam and opera classic. They doesn't work and if i try to re-pass them to the user partition, Link2SD give me the error: write: No space left on device. (but i've a lot of space!!). This happens also with the others applications.
How can i solve? I've wiped cache by recovery but the problem remains.. any suggestions?
EDIT: it's the dalvik cache.. I've two directory /cache/dalvik-cache and /data/dalvik-cache. If i clean the first the space problem disappear and i can do anything perfectly.. but when i reboot, the dalvik is recreated and the space is full again (cache).
This is the question: the apps i've moved to the rom memory (system memory) create a too large dalvik-cache (i think). I would like to move the dalvik-cache of this applications to the user memory (not to the sd card). Integrate /cache/dalvik-cache in /data/dalvik-cache. Is possible?
How can i do?

Hmmm...dalvik-cache from system apps can't be move into ext partition using link2sd...link2sd keep it at cache/dalvik-cache so your phone can boot faster and can open system apps quicker...
but if you want to really move those dalvik-cache you have to use other apps than link2sd... This Apps can do the job but remember you need to restore all files that have been link using link2sd first...both app can't work together so you need to uninstalled link2sd before you can use it....also remember this app might not work on certain phone and rom...make Nandriod backup before you attempt to try this apps...

Hmmmm...so far as i tested, there no problem with it....there a big different between Mounts2SD and Link2SD...Link2SD only link the apps/lib/dalvik-cache on install apps but not on system apps while Mounts2SD is moving apps/data/lib/dalvik-cache and even system cache to your ext partitions...the setup also quite easy using Mounts2SD but the big disadvantage about Mounts2SD is you can't uninstall apps using it...you have to use default way in settings/apps to uninstalled it or use and app uninstaller...the big advantage about Mounts2SD is you will have more free space (around 95%) in internal memory cause after moving all apps/data/lib/dalvik-cache....

After those problems i restored a nandroid backup and only integrated the updates of six apps in the rom with Titanium Backup, this is a problem for Mount2SD now? (you said i must to restore link done with Link2SD etc. before).
Can you explain me the steps i must do? I want to move some applications to the system memory (with Mount2SD you said) and leave their dalvik-cache to /data/dalvik-cache (not necessarily that of all the default system apps)
