Froyo Apps2SD : when I connect my phone to PC via USB cable and set my phone as Drive Disk, it pops up FC sometimes and some apps miss their icons.
Have you tried wiping the dalvik-cache? Try that, which will force the phone to rebuild the dalvik-cache.
This might sound like a stupid question, but when you move the apps to SD, can you select which one you want to move, or does the command "/system/bin/a2sd reinstall" move ALL the apps you have installed to the SD card?
Also, if I want to move the apps back to the internal memory later, how does the program work if I have more apps than what the internal memory can hold...? E.g. if I have 200mb worth of apps on the SD card, and the internal memory only has say 100mb free...?
Thanks!
So, If i wipe dalvik-cache, what will happen to my phone, will I lost some data or settings?
geez... Froyo BTW...@ tkirton
remember me from the desire thread for the same topic? anyway, i was that legend-user guy (only realized i was posting under the dt-desire thread just a couple of weeks back. silly me. sorry 'bout that). i used to be on azure, then went with the nightlies. right now i'm on b62. from azure and nightly to nightly, i had to issue 'remove' & 'nocachesd' BEFORE flashing any kernels for the new kernel to boot/work. just over the weekend, i did 'nocachesd' and forgot about 'remove' prior to flashing b62 over b50. i was guessing that my gizmo will still boot since only the apps are affected; but..wala..stuck on the animated boot screen! did nandroid restore, issued 'remove' then flashed b62 and everything went good. tried wiping dalvik, but no dice there too, even on prior flashing that i did.
i'm concluding that, at least for my case, going from one rom to another, especially without wiping data, i need to restore first all apps and dalvik back to internal storage before flashing to another kernel. it's not a complicated process; cumbersome though. care to enlighten, my man?
also, any updates on the gui version? wifey's beginning to suspect i'm carrying out an online illicit affair via encrypted means on the terminal emulator.
