Hi, all! This is unstable boot.img. When will be a stable version of froyo (please, say me in this topic about it) I'll do superboot with apps2SD option too and write exe installer and full manual.

ok.. It's not a problem.. Very good job, waiting for the stable release.. As you say it's unstable, sometimes there are problems, (battery life,random reboots, blank sd) but it's very good implementation! Hope you release stable verison soon..

Yes, this problems are because this boot is from very-very first froyo and using it on current leaks is not good (i thought, that it doesn't work at all). I think I'll do the new version in this weekends if LIQUID_USER upload new leak and it will be stable.

I've done easy installer, but have not tested it. Please, test it on clear system. If you have installed previous version, you must stop installation in the middle (installer remember you about it).

Honestly folks, I was going to wrap this thing up, but anyone could test this one now. It is also because of this thread and noxwell that i made this. So it's appropriate to be here first.

For 4.002.02_EMEA-GEN1_05.01.04 for Apps & Dalvik to SD

under malez recovery.

adb push modded-boot.img /sdcard/

adb shell flash_image boot /sdcard/modded-boot.img

wipe davlik-cache and wipe extended (where nothing is in ext2 the first place) and

then go reboot, wait for 5 to some minutes maybe less because of dalvik creation. then that is it. 180MB, with no hustle. settings and all such should cross your finger be exactly the same. hehe

****

Sorry guys, edit: should have been: "adb shell flash_image boot /sdcard/modded-boot.img"

modded_boot.img

it work only on ext2? why not ext3 or ext4?

great work

thank you

Because Froyo cannot detect, what type of FS is on partition. This workaround force mounts partition. I need to create new boot for ext3 and new for ext4

Doen't work for me with liquid E:

Seems it can't get root permissions.. Any solutions?

Press any key to continue . . .

chown: /system/sd: Read-only file system

chmod: /system/sd: Read-only file system

mv: can't create directory '/system/sd/app': Read-only file system

ln: /data/app/app: File exists

.

.

.

.

.

Installation finished!

Now you can disconnect your phone from computer.

Have a nice day! (c)Noxwell

Hmm, it looks like adb remount doesn't work. I'll look tomorrow.

Upd: of course, I forgotten adb remount :) but on my test it works perfect.

Ok.. Just add "adb remount" before busybox commands like this:

adb remount

adb shell "busybox chown 1000:1000 /system/sd"

adb shell "busybox chmod 771 /system/sd"

adb shell "busybox mv /data/app /system/sd/app"

adb shell "busybox ln -s /system/sd/app /data/app"

It works!!

Great job again!! Thanks

Updated easy-installer, fixed "read-only" error. Soon will do installer for ext3, ext4, Apps&Dalvik2SD

Thanks for your work ! It's great for us who have a lot of apps ... :)

IMHO, ext3 & ext4 are not really usefull for app2sd since datas are almost "static" : no need to journalize operations I mean (will lost space without speed up or safe up).

Ok, i won't do it, but if somebody wants, i can do it.
As I said it's *my* opinion ... Someone could has an other one. And I would be pleased if he could explain why (I may make mistake with this). :)

EDIT : Sorry for my poor english ...

It's link to the russian forum, where people on Galaxy S moved data/data to the SD and they have an immense jump (from 840 to 1600) in Quadrand. And they using ext4 :) We need to do that for our phones! Edited by noxwell
