Root [Data2Ext] Increase Internal Memory of your A75

satecsh said:
Hi Mastermind... my ext2 partition is 2.5gb, should i reduce it to 1gb for ur script to work?
Click to expand...

That should not be a problem though...but not sure abt size of the partition, do u really nees that much big 2nd partition, I think 1gb is enough, for me atleast.
 
For your convenience, I have added link of boot.img with init.d support for stock mmx rom in OP.

EDIT:
New CeltICS version is coming up so will be testing this script soon n let u guys know..
As of now script is reported to work on stock rom only.
 
this method worked for me.!!
i tested for my second partition of just 256 mb and now i got 115 mb of internal storage.!!
now i will try for 1gb partition tomorrow .!! nice work man.!! thumbs up.!!

edit :-
hey mastermind when i flashed the zip file i think my rom (A75 ICS v2 by sagarwep) had been reset.!!
so my problem is that
firstly the rom is missing root explorer(not an issue if second problem was not there)
secondly when i flashed this :- "Data2ext_A75_by_Mastermind.zip" keyboard (originally in the rom ) was not found and i cannot type anything !.!
so i tried google play but since i had wiped all my data i have to sign in again to my google account and as said no keyboard is installed.!!
plz check for some keyboard issue.!!
 
nothing happened with that zip on Blue Terror.!! :(
i thought it would work as blue terror is the modded stock rom so it must have same partition tables??

plz recheck and redevelop that .zip @mastermind..
coz link2sd works flawlessly on blue terror.!!
 
Changed OP with some step modification...
Data2Ext comfirmed working on Stock and BlueTerror...
Updated new MountScript flashable zip link with some changes...

if could you confirm that gallery and the camera app are detecting sd card in blue terror rom or not would be helpful.!!

edit:-
actually i am not getting it.!!
this is exactly what i am doing...

i already have link2sd installed and 2nd ext2 partition created (and i have linked some apps already)
so i now directly move to step 2..
i flash from sd card .. the installation is successful but still i see no increased internal memory in my phone,, am i doing something wrong?? plz reply quickly any1..
 
As said in OP, this should best work after a factory reset or just after flashing rom...before factory reset remove 02data2ext script from /system/etc/init.d/ otherwise u will end up in bootloops...
The reason data2ext not working for u is Link2SD don't allow to remount 2nd partition once mounted, so data2ext script gets volume busy error n not working...try after factory reset, first backup ur imp data n remove data2ext script from init.d .
Hope this help.
 
tried everything
still no luck
mounted ext2 in link2sd
then flashed data2ext.zip via cwm
nothing happens

only thing is no more mount warnings after reboot
 
I don't know what's wrong, why u guys r not able to get it work...Give me some time, I will come up with a manual method which i follow.
I just installed ICS2.0 by sagarwep n guess what, the script works on that rom too...
here is the proof...

Has flashed all the things properly and had fixed the permission of data 2 ext also and now i have the Blue Terror V1.1 with the 1GB internal memory so now no worrying for downloading the apps... will be uploading the Screenshots in few mins...

Edit:
And here you go with the screen shots of the Blue Terror V1.1 working of Data2Ext enjoy...
Click to expand...

Hey mastermind1024 here i have uploaded Blue Terror V1.1 screenshots so just add them to your OP for reference to other for confirmation of working of 1GB data2ext...

Hey i know whats the problem with other people its jsut like me they even cant be able to get it working cos of the permissions but see now its working for me...

Edit:
Hey mastermind1024 i was just thinking to use these scripts on Micromax A73 so can you please let me know is there anything specially added in the scripts which makes it work with Micromax A75 or its just the universal script which can be used for any device which have a ext2.ko module in it please let me know as if untill u confirm cant be able proceed to test it on Micromax A73. And if its universal then have many other friend who are using Android phones so cant test on them also but first will check on Micromax A73 so plse let me know.
 
Haa, finally sm1 else also get it worked, pheow...

N No, the script is adapted for A75 partition table..as far as partition table is same, script will work on A73 too, so first give me output of
cat /proc/mtd
So i can tell u if it will work out of the box or else I'll made sm adaptation n provide u a new script for A73.

Did u try that on newly installed system or u were already using rom since quite a time n had installed many apps.???
Plus if u hv previously used link2sd n linked apps already then this will happen...
N 3rd thing, it will take time abt 5-10 min on 1st boot after setting data2ext script.if bootanimation is playing continuously, no pause n restart then its normal, its taking time to move ur data...
