Red face Help phone is not booting

Hello guys, i would like to ask your help, today i followed a post by jdc4429 to allocate my app in my sdcard, i downloaded the file ANDROID2SD.ZIP, which contains the files app2sd1.bat & app2sd2.bat, cache2EXT2.bat, data2EXT2.bat i followed the instructions and i finally could install my apps into my sdcard but when i was using my ahome i realized that it make me close the applications a lot of time, the last time it said something force or wait i clicked in force and it seems was stick so i rebooted and then it couldnt enter to the system, it showed the android image, the green one, one and more times, its seems is loading but then it showed again, the problem probably is the microsd, cause it seems the system is trying to boot from the sd which i dont understand, i tried to take out my sdcard but then the system seems to not load, cause it only show me my boot image not enter to the green android, i entered to fastboot but my phone is not in debuging mode cause the last time i unchecked that option, now i dont know what to do...im wondering if i delete the partition i did, it could resolve the problem, but i didnt try im afraid to break my phone, i also wanted to upgrade from the bootloader with an NBH but i dont know if that will resolve the problem i have a rooted phone with hardspl, everything was working fine before i allocate my apps in my sdcard, please please i need some help...i cant use my phone now, i feel so sad...buuu.

I could resolved my problem was not so difficult as i thought i just did the hard rest and it works now my phone is working , additionally i would like to comment my case, my phone was crashed cause i allocate my apps to a particion ext 2, i used some bat commands through adb, the things is that made my system unstable and then when i turned on i couldn’t load the home screen, after i did the hard reset everything looks fine but it seems my all app still are running in the ext2 partition cause I have droidsans working and I had everything(without apps) I did in my phone before, like boot image, multitouch and my firmware and os is the same..RC33 JF, im wondering if I could delete the ext2 partition or it can damage my phone any idea.

Well, first, I would boot with the old SD and get Backup for Root Users. Run an all-inclusive back up with that. Then, I would update to CM's latest update, with my new SD. Log in and go to the market and get Backup for Root again. Then, put both cards into your PC and copy the BackupRoot folders. Then, run Backup for Root and do an all-inclusive restore.

That's just my method. I think your phone will look identical after that since only apps are stored on the 2nd partition. Then, you can still have copied everything from your 1st partition and ignore your permission issues.

Good luck.

Nexus 4 Stock 4.2.2 Rooted

I'm on a Motorola Backflip running 2.1-update1. I don't have a mountd.conf file at that location. I do have a vold.conf file that seems to be it's replacement. Can anybody confirm that the posted mountd.conf file works to replace my vold.conf file?

I've attached a text version of my vold.conf file.
