Apptosd problem - Hero CDMA General

Hi I have MoDaCo Custom Hero ROM and when i make a ex2 partition on the sd card my phone just loops at the sprint sprint and when i take the card out the phone boots and all my apps don't work.

someone please help me

double posting is bad unless there's a reason for it.... remove your sd card and see if you can get in
if that fixes it... try "SDPART:fat32 only" in custom recovery rom....
this should have been fixed in MoDaCo 1.1+... you are probally booting into stock rom with ext2 partition on your sd card if I had to take a leaping guess

so if i do sdpart fat32 only will i still be able to install apps to sd?

bad sd card?

I tried to update to the 2.33 jachero rom got a bootloop
tried an older version got a bootloop
tried the dudes build got a bootloop
i then used and old sdcard from my sidekick and i got on the dudes build
i tried to use apps2sd on the stock 1gb card which i previously already had and it said i didnt have a partition on it which i did previously so it set it up and rebooted into a bootloop
is this a bad sd card?
any ideas?
Is it trying to move the /data to the sd? If it is, that would be the issue, Least it was for me when I went to 1.51
sorry havent been on here in awhile been on vacation
i tried upgrading to jacshero2.3 at the time and i just got a constant bootloop nothing would happen so i took an old sdcard from my sidekick lx and put back on the dudes build and it worked but i cant reboot the phone from the sd card i tried to install hero on it will bootloop.
also i lost appstosd nothing saves to the sd but if i open partion manager it says i still have ext2.
and if i use appstosd it says i have to partition my sd card and if i try it the phone reboots and bootloops
Yea sounds like you need to redo the sd card.. Id just save the apps and apps-private folder and wipe the rest. Then put the apps and apps-private back on after you wiped the card then relink them.
is it a simple copy and paste
it started up today wit the sd card so ill reformat it
Its not a simple copy and paste.. Usually if you use linux you need to make sure the attributes are saved as well. cp -a

app2sd how does it works?

hello every body i am new in the android community.
i've just got a htc hero.
i've rooted it at http://theunlockr.com/ by using the
How To: Root Your HTC Hero in One Click! methode.
now i've put the modaco custom rom in by useing the recovery image.
so i've put it in the sd rename it to update.
applyed it in the recovery image so i've got a new rom.
and what now? to put apps to my sd?
Back up your as card. Go into recovery loader again. Use the format as: fat / ext / swap
I think modaco and fresh both default aps2sd so nothing else is required other than removing and reinstalling your apps so they get put on the sd.
Good luck and make sure you do step 1!
so anytime you install an app from the app market, it will automatically install on your sd card? (i have modacos rom) and how can you check to make sure it does?
all of my apps are on my SD card, maybe with the exception of WiFi teether since it is in the rom and I think needs to be in /system/ to work.
It's nice, my apps are persistent with factory resets and rom flashes.
If I pull my SD card they stop working, if I put it back the spring back to life.
so you dont have to install any apps for this to work, you just have to partition the sd card?
1. Backup your SD card, the Repartition wipes everything out
2. Boot into recovery
3. Run the Partition Fat16/EXT/Swap
4. Reboot
5. Reinstall your apps so they are moved to the SD card.
In really basic terms we trick the phone into thinking nothing happened but we move the App directory to the SD card and point to the card instead of internal memory.
You have to understand how the linux kernel works to really understand the whole "don't have to install software". One of the things Linux beats the crap out of micro$oft about is "things just work".

Clockwork Recovery 3.0 Corrupted My 16gb Sd Card

I had just finished installing Myns New Rom and Flashed the combo radios aswell, I ran Titanium Backup and installed my apps. I opened Rom Manager and said I had to flash Clockwork Mod and it updated to 3.O. I then proceeded to make a back up of the rom and then my phone went straight to boot loader, It would not reboot and would not enter recovery just reboots back into boot loader. I finally removed the sd card and rebooted after 10 mins it went back to my rom. I then tried to open my sd card on pc an nothing shows up, I tried 2 others and nothing, cannot even format. I borrowed my friends evo and went to recovery with sdcard in to format it say error can not mount and nothing. I tried within the phone, with cm6 installed and it said the sd card was blank or wrong something, (I forgot) No luck. I think it might have destroyed my sd card, Im trying to find a software that may allow me to do so any luck.
-not visible in pc
-cannot mount or format on phone or recovery mode.
-16gb Micro Sd card Sandisk class 2, bought when touch pro came out for 110 from bestbuy (got 100 back from Htc Touch return so really only 10)
-Had partitoned earlier to run mikifroyo app2sd, unpartioned by formatting.
Please any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

try looking in the forums for the lastet recovery in .zip format.
Copy it to the root of the sd card. (if you think that you have an issue with the SD card, then take a fresh SD that is formatted to Fat32. Make sure it is not NTFS. If you formatted on the Mac, make sure the partition format is MBR and not GUID, if you don't know how to do this, I can explain further. The easiest way would be to make sure that you do it on a windows machine)
Start your phone, and hopefully it will install the recovery automatically.
After you install the recovery, and get your phone booted into android, you can locate a pre-rooted rom of your choice in the forums here or at the "other" place if you prefer.
You can read more about it in this other section of the forum. The information below is from that forum, in case you can't find it or are too lazy to search.

G3 Not booting with a 4gb micro SD card

So I was using Kyrillos' 4.1 non OC ROM and I wanted an app to take snapshots of my phone and downloaded picme... After installing it, it asked for superuser allowance and I gave it but the phone froze... I rebooted and it stuck on the booting logo (green android with a circle)... I tried taking out the micro SD and it booted fine. So my problem is with my 4gb micro SD. I formatted it both with windows and EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition but still it doesn't work. I even had EASUS to check my SD for bad sectors, but nothing... I flashed Kyrillos' new 5 beta ROM but still it freezes on the boot logo... It's weird because my SD card has only 1 partition and no bad sectors. Help please?
Try another sd?

I did try the SD the phone came with but my non-working SD card is my bigger one... 4gb capacity. My point is that my SD card is usable on any other device except my phone until recently

I already did... In FAT32 and still nothing
clarkkov said:
Format it to ext. Kikiriki rom requires sd to be in the phone when flashing, it places swap and app2sd onto sd. This is one of the reasons you shouldnt use custom c#ap. If it does not work in ext, reflash kiki rom with this sd inside the phone. If it does not work after this, say good bye to your sd, kiki has fried its mbr.

Who talked about Kyrillos' rom being crap... Sorry but it is way ahead of most ROMs... Even for Galaxy 3 the speeds are light fast and I never ever had any problems with the ROM again... Some people like to push their stuff to the limits and not get everything a company gives them. Do we have an official Froyo update from Kies yet? Nope! Hence the custom ROM
I got it working... I formatted it to EXT2 and then formatted it again on my phone, and my phone can boot with the 4gb sd... Thanks clarkkov !!!

[Q] SD card problems

Hi,
I was trying to flash my HD2 when i ran in a bad problem.
Whenever I try to read or write to SD my phone freezes. I tried several SD cards.
It happens when I try to install a ROM from SD, try to partition a card or when I mount it and try to put files on it from my computer.
I also prepared a card at my computer with EXT4/FAT32, trying to install a ROM it freezes.
Can anyone help me?

Ok weird but anyhow you have two things to try either:
Format your sd and try your repartitioning from your pc and start over
Or
Format sd and partition right through the advanced menu in clockwork mod recovery. Personally I always do this but keep in mind that if you require an ext4 partition you must use ext4 recobery as normal cwm is only capable of creating an ext3 partition. Let me know how it goes and if notbwe will take different approach bud. Good luck

Thanks rawdaddymagraden for your reply.
I did so already, I started to use clockwork to prepare my SD card, it did create the FAT32 partition but never created the ext4, at first I was thinking it was busy creating because of the "please wait" notification. After an hour of waiting i suspected the phone hung in process, I tried so wih 2 cards.
Next I prepared the card from my computer, I used MiniTool Partition Wizard for it. I have put the prepared card into my phone and continued my installation. When I mounted the phone and tried to copy my install files it became unmounted after it started copying the file.
Finaly I wiped the card, prepared it and have copied the files from it on my computer. After I did put the card back I started te installation from it, it starts installing but it freezes after a few seconds.
I'm lost.....
