Just copy everything on your sd card to pc and after partioning copy back everything.Remember to enable show hidden files before copying and copying back.Use minitool partion wizard.

Always.partition using the adapter..do not partition while you are connected in usb storage mode

Replacement Phone....

I had to order a replacement phone. Question I have is when I re-root and install titanium bu, will all of my information (apps and data) still be there? Or will I have to do everything all over again?
If you didn't save it on your external SD card or to your computer yes you have to download all over it again.
Save titanium back up folder to your external SD card or to your computer once in a while so if anything goes wrong u can just put it back on the internal SD card and just restore it.

"SD card blank or not present" but SD-apps run fine

Hello all,
I used a windows-xp to flash nAa-kernel05 and upgrade to miniCM7 2.1.3.
Once done, the phone booted properly. My SD apps work .. but the SD card does not seem to be accessible. In gallery it says: SD card blank or not present. Music player says no SD. Storage settings show no SD ..
It seems that the Fat partition is messed. How can I fix?
I'm not sure if it is related to the miniCM7 update.
Any clue?
i had similar problem ..
try to format your sd card with this software:
Code:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
I do not want to format, my data is accessible via card reader.
The sd card was running few hours ago.
I did the following (with no luck)
1- Using windows, fixed errors in fat32 partition
2- Missing "/system/xbin/parted" copied with pernissions
3- Reboot many times, wipe cache partition and dalvik
4- Edit the default capabilities xml file at the SD root, edited <boot> to have a low-case R after unlocking kernel.
Still cannot find the solution for my problem

Exactly, and also try to partition the sd card with minitool partition wizard, and then install apps in your sd, they might work better with an ext 2 partition, thats what i did, cuz my cards 8 gig, and fat is not an option.
I just tried to upgrade to 16 gb card and my phone did not like it. Random shut downs, apps did not run etc. Do I need to format the card in a special way before I can use it? I did a full clean install before trying a new card.
It may just be a dodgy card though... It works fine with my old 8 gb card.

External SD Card and storage problem

Hello Folks!
i just bought a 32gig micro sd card for my S3. inserted it, formated. everything goes well. but now i have problem. is there anyway to change the settings of touchwiz, so it downloads and installs all apps on the external sd ? and how do i change the backup location in titanium backup ? titanium backkups take up quite some space, so it would be great if they can be stored AUTOMATCALLY on the external SD. Btw S3 is rooted.
Thanks Guys
Titanium Backup

For the first problem you have go to the mods section and search for internal sdcard to external sdcard..you will get a zip which will toggle the memories so that your internal memory will be shown as external and vice versa ..all the apps will then be stored on the external sdcard

Hi,
Since I have similar issues and more, I jump in with my own questions...
It seems that my ext sd card is only partially recognized. For instance, Rom Manager does not see it, so when I want to install a zip file from Rom Manager, it will only browse for the zip file within the internal as card. I can however browse through the ext sd card from Recovery.
I can also reach my zip file stored in the ext card with ES file explorer, click on it and open it with Rom Manager to install it straight away...
When I do a nandroid backup, I get a message during the backup process stating something like "no ext card found"
I'm just wondering how the ext sd card can be recognized in any situation? Could this relates to how I formatted it? I did a standard formatting with my Windows 7 PC, so it was fat32 (or fat).

I have the same problem with my Galaxy s, but my memory card isen't being used. Like cmd, pictures, backups all saves in the phone. My phone made the internmemory as the sdplace. How can i make everything be in my real sdcard and not in the internmemorysd?

"CAN I DELETE all FOLDER in my internal SD CARD ? "

Yes you can.. All the folders required by the system will be automatically generated.. Connects your phone pc and format the internal sdcard..

You can do nothing. Important stuff are on SD card.

thx mate

can you move games/apss to EXT SD?

I got my S2 rooted. can I move these games from the internal and sd memory to my REAL EXTERNAL SD card?
And still have the icons @ the same place @ dekstop and play them directly?
How would I do this?
Thanks.
Use Link2SD app. You can also create a second part of your sd-card with MiniTool Partition Wizard for Windows then link your apps to this 2nd part. Root needed.
