I installed Quick System Info, seem A2SD work fine.


I also have DiskUsage to have better picture.
It seem all the apps' apk are installed under Apps2SD folder at FAT32 partition (and have little davikCache on internal storage).
I don't see the ext4 partition.

However till this point I still don't understand what's the partition ext use for, as everything is stored at FAT partition.

if haven't try before, u can see in action:



yes, you just need to titanium backup the apps. I recommended to restore only app without data because certain Sense data might corrupted the MIUI or causing FC. if you need certain app+data, need to select carefully to restore.

No, the a2sd here is your ext3/4...
yes, whenever you install an app, more or less it will take out some space of your internal memory....

i see
is there anyway to see whats inside the ext3/4 partition? mount the card on a linux system?

How come your A2SD only 50MB?

That's what I don't understand.
The A2SD size grows as I install more apps.

yes, linux, ubuntu, fedora, ubuntu live cd...

yeap...definitely u can see if u mount ur sd to linux os....u can try this to check ur ext3/4 on ur phone..
go to root /system/sd thru root explorer..

i plan to swap to miui as well
so i just cleanup everything.. then flash part 1 + part 2(english) rite??

previously i saw someone stated that.. after done flashing.. A2SD+ is not enabled.. i need to install something from the market.. then type in some command..
what is it again?


will probably flash it tonite

i think ur dalvik cache still on phone memory...

yes. the dalvik cache still in phone internal memory.

a2sd+ is work, but dalvik-cache is left in phone memory....
download terminal emulator
type:
su
a2sd check (to check whether your a2sd is mounted properly)
a2sd zipalign (to perform zipalign)
a2sd cachesd (move dalvik-cache to sd)

your phone will reboot and take sometimes.....
after that you will find your internal memory increase~~

yaaa...with a2sd u need to clear the cache frequently...not like manual app2sd...

MIUI by default support A2SD+ but only the dalvik cache is still in internal memory. meant apps still store in SD.
there is pro & cons for dalvik cache in internal memory or sd for performance. depend on you. (personally I choose more space)
if you lazy to go terminal apply the command, just take this:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.p...&postcount=1915

follow the instruction there, see the last line:
"dalvik cache on SD is done automatically with ROM installation"

using ubuntu's gparted XD

Then shouldnt be problem....
i'm did my partition same way~~

Thanks =) wah wah.. new UI ... new look ! tonite will flash ~~~~

It's so nice that I don't miss sense at all

perhaps i din mount it properly on android?

but somehow i feel that MIUI drain more battery~~
not sure because of the lighter background....
my display usage in MIUI seems to be using more battery...
previous rom i used if i make the screen brightness to lowest, they don't use up the battery percentage so much...

Added on November 11, 2010, 4:49 pmmaybe but i'm not sure about it....
but i think the possibility is low as your phone can detect the a2sd.....
maybe you need to recheck using ubuntu see anything wrong with the partition or not~~
how much you partition your ext3?
