[HOW-TO] Have it all - Enomther's 1.5/6.1+Himem+Apps2SD

---

Tools you'll need:
1. Rooted Nexus
2. sdcard with 2 primary partitions 1. fat32 2. ext2/3 (I did 500mb)---class 6 card highly recommended
3.Enomther's 1.6.1 found here or Enomther's 1.5.1 found here (placed at root of sdcard)
4. Himem 1.6.1 kernel update found here or Himem 1.51 kernel update found here (placed at root of sdcard)
5. Titanium backup (available in the Market...donation key recommended)
6. Be open to frustration (and possibly, but not likely, damage your device) and not hold me responsible!

Steps to take:
If you are already running EM1.5/6.1 WITHOUT the memory kernel hack, you should be able to skip the titanium and wipe part, and skip straight to step #5, however...MAKE SURE YOU NANDROID!!! first.

1. Backup!! (nandroid <most important>/Titanium <recommend donation key, as I don't know free functionality)
2. Wipe
3. Flash 1.5.1 or 1.6.1 (or reflash if already running with himem)
4. Reboot WITHOUT enabling Google backup
5. Lucid in adb shell or terminal emulator (dalvik2sd <lucid -dc -a> optional)

su
lucid -a -sd
lucid -dc -sd
reboot

6. After full boot, reboot to recovery console
8. Once in recovery, flash Himem, reboot again
7. Install Titanium app from the market
8. Restore Titanium backup made in step 1 (in batch>all apps+data option)
9. Reboot one final time
11. Check everything worked by typing "free" in terminal and verify internal storage in settings (mine says 395332 total memory and 174 free internal memory)
12. <optional> Flash/apply theme or morph


EDIT: Beware!!! This is my 666th post!!!

The basic scenario is to set up apps2sd before flashing the himem kernel...I was getting bootloops performing it any other way than this. Your results may vary.

If you get bootloops and skipped anything, you may need to perform complete process.

Also, if in bootloop (stuck at the X splash screen),

adb shell reboot recovery

saves having to pull the battery.

Little more info needed for the android newbies out there, e.g. ext partition ect

but overall nice how to, and thanks for the info ill giv it whirl soon

After flashing the highmem it got's stuck at the X splash screen.

Ahh, yes...sdcard partitions...Post #1 updated. Good looking out.

Happened to me a couple times in my experiments. Make sure you are not skipping any steps and are not using a different/older copy of the himem...download a fresh copy from the link in the OP as the file has changed in the last few days.
While stuck at the X splash screen (A.K.A. bootloop) do this.

adb shell reboot recovery

start over from step #2 above.

2. wipe
3. flash 1.5.1...etc.

What is the command to reverse the davlik back to the phone memory?
What wouyld the command be in adb to check if apps2sd and davlik2sd or vice versa actually worked correctly before preceding?

Should be

su
lucid -dc -g1
reboot

# lucid -a -sd
lucid -a -sd
Nothing was done. /system/sd/app          is FOLDER.
Please rm -r /system/sd/app          first.
Nothing was done. /system/sd/app-private  is FOLDER.
Please rm -r /system/sd/app-private  first.

Hmmm doesnt seem like it quit worked out lol

Did what it suggested for mt to remove the two folders and reapplied, worked.
lucid -s confirmed it

So, you got it working?
If not:

su
lucid -c

will clear your ext partition of app, app-private and dalvik-cache folders. Then you can run lucid -a -sd without issue. You may have to reboot in between, maybe not.

Oh, and thanks for fixing my quote...posted it while driving.

All good now
