[MOD][AD2SDX] Increase Internal Memory without loosing Performance

---

I just came across this script "AD2SDX - AMARULLZ DATA TO SD-EXT" which is still in alpha stages it works fine on Arc. I tested today on my MIUI ROM.

WHAT IS IT??
This mod will move all Internal Memory (data) into sd-ext, "but not like data2ext", this mod will maintain the performance, because it still place dalvik-cache and system application data in Internal Memory.

Here is a screenshot of my "Manage Application" :



Note: This script is still in alpha stages so users who are not sure please don't try it. It can potentially brick you SD or can cause bootloops. I don't know a method to uninstall this yet.

HOW IT WORK??

The script will do this in the first boot:

• Move Mounting Internal Memory (/data) Into /sd-ext
• Mount SDCard-Ext (mmcblk0p2) partition into /data
• Create dalvik-cache directory in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext), and symlink it to mmcblk0p2 (/data)
• Create data directory in mmcblk0p2 (/data) And symlink it into Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)
• Create symlink of app, app-private, app_s and lib_s from mmcblk0p2 (/data) to Internal memory data (/sd-ext)
• Create symlink for all non-symllink of Internal Memory data (/sd-ext) into mmcblk0p2 (/data)

After Initializing Setup (First Boot), reboot the system (Just reboot, don't go into recovery), the mod will automatically do this following:

• Create data_s in Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)
• Move All mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/com.htc* and com.android* into Internal Memory data(/sd-ext)/data_s
• Create symlink all files/directory from Internal Memory data (/sd-ext)/data_s/* into mmcblk0p2(/data)/data/ So the System Application Data still read into Internal memory, but rest Application Data will read Into SDCard.

A lot of people has read your thread, but nobody has answered.

I tried to use it. I have an sd-ext partition, but I don't remember if it's ext2, 3 or 4. I tried anyway and out caused a boot loop. So I'm guessing I don't have my partition formatted as ext4. I don't have access to a computer right now, so I will have to wait to test it again.

Thank you for your link.

can this be used with the neo ? using inteks kernel (it doesn't have ext support yet) i.e can this add the ext support to that kernel ? thanks !

Your kernel need init.d support. Then I believe it should work.
