well Hybrid Data2SD is still a jargon for me. It has something to do like you can selectively move app data to sd card so something(not quite sure on this).
We partition our sd card so that we have a partition that is dedicated to apps only. Like its a hidden partition that will be used to store you apps on the sd card. Much better than manually moving your apps to sd card. App2SD by kyrillos (its a script, available in different versions. You need to select the version that suits your sd card class and capacity). On using such a script all your apps are moved to the sd card on installation.
By using Titanium backup you can view the free space on the sd-ex partition(the extra partition that you have made). Its best to partition the sd card via the CWM recovery which will come pre-installed on Kyrillos 8.0 or even on G3Mod Kernels.
I have provided a link below that has links to all the firmwares and kernels for our phone. So if you install Kyrillos's ROM and do not happen to like it, then you can select the stock JP2 firmware from the Index forum and flash back using ODIN.

PS.
To flash a ROM you need ODIN and the .ops(Odin partitioning Script) files. Both of them will be available when you download Kyrillos ROM.
-> Open ODIN
-> Select the .ops file
-> Select flash as one package and select the .tar file
-> Connect the phone(You must have the USB drivers for you phone installed. You can install KIES for that)
-> Once connected, ODIN will show the port number and write something as Detected or something like that.
-> flash the firmware now. Pray to GOD.
Back up your IMEI before flashing. Always flash ROMs without bootloaders as they can permanently damage(Hard Brick) you phone.
All the best.
thanks for reply....
is partition necessary...i mean is it compulsory...??

1. No partition isn't necessary. If you are happy with the internal storage that you have on your phone, then you can live without a partition!
2.All the custom ROM's (in this case Kyrillos) are without bootloaders, so they are safe to flash.
3. If you want to revert back to stock ROM, then you can find them (without bootloaders) over here:-

I came to know abt this hybrid data2sd and successfully booted CM7 and Froyo roms using multiboot.
I have written all steps on THIS post!
Hope it helps!!
Hybrid data2sd basically moves apps to your sd card partition. First you have to partition your sd card using minitool partition wizard (google it) or cwm recovery which comes on custom roms. This changes the format of that certain partition of your sd card to ext2/ext3/ext4. I think that makes it faster than fat32 which is the standard format of an sd card. When you have partitioned your sd card and have the hybrid data2sd script on your phone your apps with automatically go onto your sd card because your phone thinks the partition is internal storage so you don't need to move them in the settings (i made that mistake and my phone went crazy slow!). It's basically just a way of getting more storage whilst still keeping your phone working smoothly. Also you can easily go back to your stock rom by going to this thread and downloading whichever one you want although i don't think this will be the case since kyrillos roms are awesome.
how do i check used/remaining space in hybrid data2sd partition...??
pls need help...
I think you may need to type something into terminal emulator. Hillbeast is the best person to ask as he made the script in the first place.

Hi.
As we all know our I-9505 have quite large space for system files (and bloatware).
After installing other roms (in my case PAC rom - Android 4.3.1) we have loads of space free there. With PAC i have 2.39GB
Because i have rom backup all the time on internal memory it's it takes about 1,7GB space.
And now the idea:
Create folder '000' in root system folder, move a backup there and any time you wish to recover just copy it back to clockworkmod folder.
Tried that with no sucess as esExplorer and TotalCommander can't mount root system folder as read/write.
Anyone knows is that possible ? That could save us some nice space.
----------please notice----------
I know that this way you can't recover backup before you copy it to clockworkmod mod but i always have copy of backup on PC for any bad situation and i can copy it back to phone thru clockworkmod recovery mouting USB or in download mode.
Hi!
I flashed my s5 to android 6.0(cm-13.0-20151227-UNOFFICIAL-kltedv.zip) , i use my sdcard(sandisk) as internal storage, then i found a problem

Please help me .......
My phone is G900F.
TWRP(3.0.2) not detecting external storage, shown as 0MB
I use stock ROM. In android 5.0 Lollipop, it is normal to mount External SD card. However, in android 6.0 Marshmallow, it shows 0MB and I cannot mount it manual (select tick).
However, mounting external SD is normal after I booted to the system and can use normally. i can read my sdcard in root explorer and other apps.
Can anyone tell me whether it has solution? Or it is a bug in TWRP?
Thank you very much and best regards. Please help.

I need some help with my Elsa. I soft bricked it about a 9 days ago while I was installing gapps on top of lineage OS 14.1. I had rooted using Cow mid January , 17.
Using fat I resized, formated, wiped ----system, data, cache--- partitions. Then I formated Dev/Art in F2FS which resulted in some very interesting stuff. Now that I've gotten TWRP back on it ( or helped it revive ) through fastboot.
File system looks good.

Is there any cmds, coding, prompts.... etc.... i can run in the twrp terminal to gather more information to the condition of the device?
No stock. No roms. Nothing except Android I think
A clean blank state?
The device Had full SElinux and MTP this whole time it was bricked

if you have twrp, the flash a rom for your device via twrp and let it boot.
typically will reboot 2x and take 10-15 min from start to finish 1st boot.
if you have twrp you just need to flash a rom,
make sure you do a full wipe, and a format data prior to installing your rom.
Please stop re-posting new threads, your making this harder for any dev to help as you've now made 3 posts for the 1 device you have, and the 1 issue.

I'm sorry.
It's just been hard. I'm reading and trying to do my homework on this issue from LG UP to boot img. Recovery img. And system img. Having issues with adb seeing device to Windows drivers not being correct.
Now that I've got twrp functioning again on the device along with adb... I've got the KDZ file which I have extracted to produce a system.img file. I have no boot or recovery img though. I've put all extracted files into my platform tools folder. I don't know what to do now. I don't want to mess this up. Help me get this correct

You can set the zips anywhere in internal.. But id recommend putting them on a sd card as they wont accidently get erased.
With his rom you dont need gaps.
Only aosp roms or aokp roms
Just choose wipe and do it 3 times
Then do advanced options in wipe and do format data
Once done go to install and choose the location where the rom was saved. Again a sd card eliminates side load. Mounting ywrp with mtp to move stuff etc. But if you have to use internal. Go to mount and mount mtp stoarge and use pc to drag zip to phone.
Should just need to install the rom and reboot. The link i sent you is for the stock rom you started with.. And some mod options. Just get it working with it and get the fine details done later..
But you just need to find the file under install and install the full zip. If its aroma it will let you personalize rom.
Just install the recommended zip from link and profit.
