Hey guys....how's everybody! i wan't to begin this thread by saying that I accidentally stumbled on this fix. I've been using Link2SD on my device, the ZTE N95220, or otherwise known as the Boost Mega/Stormer. If your reading this "guide" I take it that at this point you've rooted your phone and have experimented with Link2SD in the past. This in no way is a guide to setup Link2SD and any administartors that think this "guide" would help others in another thread area be my guest and move it. I
STORY: I was having issues with a few apps and decided, since with their latest update now Link2SD has the cool option to choose where your data is moved IE: First partition/second partition etc., and I thought with this new cool feature I'd have a little more power on my phones storage. I'm definitely a gamer and stretch my phone beyond it's capabilities with a Link2Sd/ External2Internal combo. I'm not going to make this about External2Internal, but in case your wondering it's a nice app that I use to expand my internal storage the app switches/or "swaps" the External Sd card with the internal one making your phone "think" lol or operate as if you now have 32 GB as opposed to 4GB. Why you say would mI need this app if I have Link2SD well link 2SD connects to a second partition that you create on your external sd card. External2Internal actually (on my phone) switches the " internal sd card" with my external, in other words my phone has INTERNAL/SDCARD/and EXTERNAL SDCARD with Link2SD you I have something that looks like this INTERNAL/SDCARD/2ND SDCARD PARTITION and EXTERNAL SD. Link 2SD splits my External so that half of it is used as an expanded storage for my phones SDCARD, with EXTERNAL2INTERNAL the switch is made between my SDCARD and EXTERNAL SDCARD,not "in my experience" messing in any way with the 2ND SD CARD PART. Anyway upon doing a factory reset on my phone and Partitioning my external sd card I proceeded to install Link2Sd and was immediately dismayed at the Error Cannot Mount/Busy or something towards that effect. This is the second time I'm dealing with this and my "fix" has worked so this is what I did.
I immediately hit google up looking for Link2SD "like" apps, thinking that maybe something was wrong with the app. I'm intermediate with the technical aspect of phones but I was bought to an app called DS Apps2Sd Pro. The app is a Link2Sd clone although the interface is completely different. In the settings menu it gives you an option to Initialize Link2Sd, i'm not sure if this is meant to work with Link2SD or maybe it has it's own function, which is what i think since it resolved the problem. Just like Link2SD it asks you to choose a partition and an Sdcard, which i did and then your prompet to reboot. WALLLAH!! When i rebooted my phone Link2Sd, which i hadn't uninstalled and thank god I didn;t or I would've never seen that whatever DS Apps2SD Pro did worked. My original Link2Sd was now mounted and you could either keep the app, the DS Apps2SD pro, or uninstall it, the choice is yours. You don't have to remount the Link2SD program itself, whatver DS did mounted the app and fixed the problem. This has worked now a few times on my phone and hopefully it will work on yours. There were a few times when I had to "mount" using DS a few times but eventually when you look at the Link2Sd storage it's mounted. Hopefully this small guide will help you all,since I spent plenty of hours looking for a solution and could not find one with the Link2sd "failed to mount/system busy" problem. Maybe one of you more technically inclined guys/gals could help explain what happened but for now it seems like it worked. If I helped don't forget to click thanks!!
