Root Moving Apps To Sd

[daveyoung]

My sd card is 30.66 gb now lol

What do the two lines represent?

OK I think I did it I see 2 lines now a blue one and pink/red one,can I move apps to the sd card now?

U must install link2sd or an app like it and on first load be switched, grant su, choose ext4 when it asks, reboot, then yes u can start moving apps to sd but if u want to go to another ROM don't forget to flash restore n reboot recovery first. The two lines represent ur two partitions

Link2sd is not working it say mount script cannot be created

 

[DeadDude]

then you need to use the switcher zip to make system writable

 

[DeadDude]

after doing that, reboot into android and go back to link2sd and try again. now it won't fail.

after doing that, reboot to TWRP and flash the restore zip.


now you are good to go. reboot to android and start moving apps using link2sd

 

[DeadDude]

fyi I bought the paid option immediately and couldn't be happier

i flashed the switcher before I started doing it my second line says ext2 I think that's the problem

 

[daveyoung]

The red/pink line says ext 2 I think that's the problem I already flash the switcher

 

[DeadDude]

looks like the partition needs mounting then...

think it might be an option in aparted.. not sure

 

[DeadDude]

I just used Recreate mount across in the left the line menu in link2sd

When I was doing the second partition I hit ext4 but on the bottom it shows ext2

 

[daveyoung]

Should I hit ext2 in link2sd instead of ext4

 

[DeadDude]

so did I and so does mine. mount it. recreate mount scripts.

Goto aparted, look at ur second bar if it says ext2 then u didn't format ext4, u can try to recreate mount script to ext2 (its at the top left corner with the 3 lines), if it still doesn't work then u will have to go back to stock ROM and then aparted, tools, check 2nd partition, choose format, choose ext4, then u should be able to get it to work
