Android Market doesn't see applications that have been link to SD card. Because a background process marks them as "UNINSTALLED" in the market's database when the link created.

To repair their state I have added "Market Fix" feature.

This will synchronize Android Market database with installed applications and missing market apps will be repaired.

Before starting, make sure market is not running and you're not downloading anything from the market.

NOTE: If some apps are still missing from "My Downloads" afterwards, just install any app from the market and they will show up.

Also added support in detecting and mounting ext2 partition for some roms. If you had previously received ext2 partition or mount error try this version.

You can download version 1.2.0 from the first post.

I'm getting a forceclose for com.android.vending after running the Market Fix. Is this related to the database, perhaps? Is there a way to diagnose this issue?

Thanks for the worderful app! It's working just fine on stock rooted Hero 2.1. I installed so many apps and move them on the SD and I got one question.
So the apps are moved but still they keep some little space on the ROM is that correct? Because my space there is still shrinking with every new app and game installed and linked, and there is a point when you not able to install more. Is that true or just me? Thanks again!

I've to notice the same problem reported by ozonbg: I've finished the free space in ROM, after installing and the linking them in SD.

Does link2SD move the entire apk or not?
Why free space decrease, also if use link2SD after install an app?

Link2SD does not move data and dalvik-cache, it only moves the apk file.
APKs are actually on the card; the dex files (dalvik-cache), private data directories, and native shared libraries remain in internal storage.

Lol...first post.

v1.0.7 -> 1.2.0.

What happened in between?

Can we do something to free up space occupied by data and delvik cache of the apps? Thanks!

If i want to install link2es in my sony X8, do i need to root the phone first? Thanks in advance.

Ofcourse, rooting is a must when dealing with modding stuff.

Finally v1.2 works for me after doing a factory reset. Now I cannot root permanetly the device as before, but this is not an issue. Very happy with this app!! Where is the donation link ???

Try to remove everything in /data/dalvik-cache then reboot immediately. Do not launch any app before reboot.
DEX files that have been removed will be regenerated automatically by the package manager if you restart the phone. They don't get regenerated on app launch because the system doesn't expect files to disappear out from under it.

This way, may be, you can free up some space of old unnecessary .dex files.
