Removing Darktremor Apps2SD needed before changing ROM? - Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys, I installed the DarkTremor Apps2SD script after installing the NewSense RC3 ROM and moved some files to SD which I don't remember now. Now I want to use the CyanogenMod 7.1 so is there a need to restore all settings to default? If yes, how to do that? What will happen if I install the CM7.1 ROM without removing DTA2SD?

Just wipe data at CWM Recovery, then you can flash your CM system.Nothing will happen if you wiped everything.

[Q] Apps2SD Problems(!), Partitioned Still Using Internal.

I've rooted plenty of devices, flashed countless ROMS all the way back to Windows Mobile but this dern Aria is killing me.
This is a coworker's phone that I rooted and flashed CyanogenMod 7.
it's out of memory, of course, ClockworkMod version is 2.5.0.7. Rom Manager is the latest in the market.
First I tried to partition the card through Rom Manager which didn't work. It did format the card though.
Went into ClockworkMod and there no menu for partitioning. So... I put the SDCard in my Epic4G and partitioned it there.
The partition shows in Titanium Backup but no apps go there.
He's previously moved all apps to the SDCard, no partition, if that matters.
I've tried DarkTremor, didn't boot and had to restore, Tried S2E, caused EVERYTHING to FC. Tried installing new apps to test they still go to internal. Tried mounting the SDEXT in ClockworkMod, Same.
I'm out of ideas, Help!
Is the partition formatted as EXT3? AFAIK, S2E is not compatible with EXT4. Also, try to reformat with the linux tool gparted.

u can try a program called link2sd its free in the market.
Thanks, I'll bring my linux notebook and try to muddle through it.
I'm not sure what my Epic, IIRC it does have an official clockwork recovery, formatted the card to.
Do a clean install on his phone. Backup all his apps with titanium. Boot into CWM, format /system, wipe data and factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik, install Rom, install kernel (optional), flash DT script, reboot (it will bootloop twice, this is normal behavior and then it will boot into android). Restore with titanium and all the apps will be installed to the EXT partition.
This phone is hateful!
Wiped everything, installed the latest nightly, flash DT Beta 04.
Rebooted started installing apps and they all went to the EXT partition. Yay!
Titanium FC'd in one app so I installed GAPPS and BOOM! The internal is filled again!
WTF?!
Open up terminal and type
Su
a2sd reinstall
Reboot (don't know if this is necessary)

I have s2e install on my aria and it runs flawlessly. I have all about 200 apps and my dalvik on my sd and still have 140mb available of internal space.
This maybe a long shot, but in cm settings, make sure "allow application moving" is un-checked and install location is set at automatic. s2e tricks the phone in thinking the ext is the internal space. I hope this is helpful. good luck.

CM6 Installing

I have big problem in CM6 roms - roms based on MiniCM6. I can't install any application, absoulutly any application. Size of files is doesn't matter. I can't even install terminal to delete file which is in topic FAQ about Cyanogen Froyo. In CM7 i don't have problems like that. What should i do?
Wipe user data before AND after installing the rom, everything should be fine then
If not, backup your SD card and format it.
I always did wipe before and after but it didn't work. Fortunately i downlaoded the newest version of CyaNoComb, i did wipe etc then i set default install into External Memory and it works.

[Q] CM7 Simple2Ext problem after sdcard upgrade.

Hi all,
1
I've been using Simple2Ext on CM 7.0.3 eversince i installed CM 7.
I was using a 2GB sdcard,partitioned 1,8GB FAT32/ 256MB EXT3.
Yesterday i've bought a new 16GB sdcard and partitioned it 15GB FAT32/ 1GB EXT3.
I've copied all data of both partitions from the old card to the new one and most of my apps are still working.
However when i try to install an app from market the phone reboots and the install fails,this doesn't happen with every app.
I've already wiped the cache and dalvik-cache partitions but it didn't help.
I also tried to fix the permissions using rom managers "fix permissions".
Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks!
Edit: I know it would be easy to disable s2e,clear the partition and restore a titanium backup but i can't do this cause titanium backup refuses to restore any backup since i've changed the sdcard.
It gives a parse error,and i still have to try to solve this. (didn't have the time)
Edit2: Nevermind,i've noticed Cyanogen 7.1 went from RC to stable so i flashed it,this solved my s2e and titanium backup problems.

Help "Oxygen 2.2/2.3 Problem"

Hey guys, I flashed Oxygen ROM and when tried to install an app, the phone rebooted and all /data apps were gone.. Did a clean install again and the same problem occured :\ ... should I fix permissions in recovery ? or use any other recovery to flash, btw my current recovery is CWM 5.0.2 ... Could it be an OC problem?? Or a problem with SD card ?

Wipe /system and /boot in mount and storages in CWM before flashing, then do a data wipe, and your good to go

[Q] darktremor and factory reset.

Hi,
My question is:
Im using a custom rom with darktremor, If I do a data wipe and factory reset to instal a new rom will I loose all my apps? Will I need to flash darktremor again? And when I flash it, my apps will appear,since they are on a partition?
Cm9.0 is about to come and I want to know that...
Thanks
wiping will erase all your non-system apps including those on you sd extension. you will never be able to have your app from sd ext unless you back it up before wipe.
By back it up you mean use titanium backup ? It wont delete the partition, right ?
