I have link2int installed via Stock+ R4. Play Store is offering me an update to link2sd. Is it safe to install this or will it cause any problem with link2int functionality? E.g. might it overwrite the link2int script or config with the original link2sd version?
You can update Link2SD app normally, it should be fine.

If you appreciate my work and would like to buy me a beer

Hi guys.

Can I just ask, in relation to the version of Link2SD installed by Link2Int, which is V 2.2.3.

Would/should I automatically be offered the Play update, which is available, V 2.3.?

Play does not show Link2SD as installed, so if I install the latest version, will it keep my settings, which is basically all user apps, except Link2SD, on Internal SD?

BTW, I flashed this earlier today, and it worked fantastically, no problems whatsoever, even with several re-boots, so it works really well.

Congrats Cyda, both on the Stock+ ROM, and this mod. :)

[My wife is eternally grateful, perhaps I will tell her some day!!!!]

It is strange that Play doesn't show Link2SD as installed I'm sure it normally does but either way you should be fine to update via Play.

So, I went onto Play on the lappy and installed Link2SD.....and low and behold on the phone it said Link2SD updated!!!

Now it shows, both on Play on phone and on lappy, and seems OK...

thanks again Cyda

Strange, my init scripts stopped working yesterday after upgrading busybox. On boot, the mount for link2int is not setup. If I run it later, no apps are picked up. Anyone know how to fix/debug init.d? :angry2:

You should be able to use Pimpmyrom to fix the init.d support. Make a nandroid first just in case.

I had some trouble with this mod on Daz's new CM10.1 R3. Maybe user specific, certainly caused by user inattention.

Make sure that you run the installed Link2SD quickly BEFORE the Play store downloads a new version of the app for you.

I happily let mine download without thinking about it the first time before I set the thing up the way I wanted it. Once the new version had downloaded, it kept asking me where it wanted the default scripts placing. I had no idea what to click there, kept getting errors and my happily installing apps gave a load of errors.

A factory reset and reflash later, I remembered to run Link2SD as soon as the phone decided it was usable. No issues at all this time. Google play updated the app which seemed to keep my previous settings without issue.

This one's an informational post (and also a reference for myself later when i bungle my next OTA).

I just applied an OTA firmware upgrade for CM9 and found that every boot there was an "Android is upgrading" dialog and many apps would crash when started... reinstalling affected apps seemed to work, but i didn't want to do that for all my apps and lose their settings. Various posts online mentioned file permissions and reinstalling Titanium Backup, none of which helped my situation. It eventually twigged that it might be a Link2SD / Link2Int thing, so reading the very first post for this topic, the solution is spelled out very clearly: re-flash Link2Int after any flashing a ROM! After the 2nd reboot, no more "android is upgrading" and no more crashy apps :)

Thank you Cyda for an awesome tool!

hey there.

well, for some unknown (yet) reason, the script won't mount on boot. I can mount it manually via adb shell , but , it's not pratical and its not suppose to be this way. still looking into the issue, but it's a pain in the ass so far.

ROM: SlimRom

well, i gave up. ended up partioning my sdcard (since i have 8gb having 1gb dedicated to apps is not that much) and i'm using link2sd normally. to bad it won't just "work" out of the box on slimrom.

PS: I'm not blaming cyda or anything, its obviously a rom fault. Just posting incase someone else has the same problem.
