    I am on Bobz newest cyanogenmod and everytime I try to download an app that's probably around 1MB it says insufficient storage space and it wont download. I have 104 MB free on internal storage and 4.5GB free on my SD card. Why does it do this? Any idea how to fix it??
     
    If you didnt partition your SD card, do that. If you have, get marketfix app from the market. And also try link2sd app from market.


    Ok tried market fix, I rebooted and cleared cache like it said to do, fixed nothing still the same problem, I was able to download a2sd and it came up with a problem saying that a2sd could not start for one of these reasons: 1. Device not rooted 2. No a2sd scripts found 3. EXT not found on SD card

    I have a question, do u have to make a brand new fresh ext partition before a new install? Cuz if so I gotta backup SD card, format and partition SD card, format phone, install rom again...

    Or do I not have to erase my phone?

    Removed: Darktremor Apps2SD

    and since that was removed he never added a new A2SD script.....why would he remove it?

    Problem came back :/

    What error or message are you getting when you launch Link2SD? At first it needs to know which ext partition to use to write the scripts. If after selecting a partition type and doing a reboot the message comes up again or some other error occurs, then there's a problem with how the scripts are being installed.

    When you did an erase, did you include a complete SD format and re partition or was it just a wipe?

    I'm using the GUI by darktremor, ik that the script is not installed onto the rom because as soon as I install the script the error goes away but swap still wont work.....another problem is that everytime I install darktremors link2sd script, I have to reboot for settings to apply including toggle for wifi, GPS, brightness, etc.....

    As far as I know, link2SED should work fine without the use of any darktremor scripts. I find it more reliable to let Link2SD do its work and own scripting since mixing that in with any other a2sd scripts or even Cyanogen's own setting to change your apps Install location messes it up a lot.
