so i had this ROM (CM6) installed for quiet awhile!
and i its installed with DT a2sd method (a2sd reinstall +a2sd cachesd)
so just today i felt like my memory wasn't moving
(127 mb left out of 179 mb's)
so i did the command of (a2sd reinstall once more) and rebooted and got like 5 mbs moved .
so i did the command of "a2sd chachesd" and it rebooted but never finish booting up.
how can i fix this? i have apps i havnt backed up to titbu yet, so i dont want to lose my data :(

got back into recover and hit format factory reset. but for future ref after you flash dt's you dont have to flash it no more, but what i did was i filled up my phone first with apps until i got a warning about my memory being low than i flash dt, and i also move the dalvik, next i had 155 mb free, even after installing about 13 more apps the went to sd on there own and a little on the phone, i know have 147 mb free doing this.

thanks, i have over 100 apps installed, and in total have 127 mb, thats why i did the command, but i didnt need to do a factory reset, i wiped the dalvik cache, since i did the command of "a2sd cachesd" and about after 2 reboots it started up again. thanks though :)
