Hello!
I searched the forum but found nothnig like my question.
So, now I have 8gb sd card with 512mb ext4 and I'm running SanGingerAce Lite (newest) with darktremor a2sd. I bought a new sd card (16gb) and I'll partition it to 1gb ext4, now my question is, do I have to reinstall darktremor a2sd script or do I just put the new sd card in the phone and everything will work?
And I noticed that on 8gb sd card which I use now, I can not set dalvik cache to sd (says it hasn't got enough space). I partitioned my sd card with mini tool partition wizard in windows. Should I partition the sd card in clockworkmod?
Thank you for your help

I think.
- do like first to enable darktremor
- If you already partitioned sdcard with mini tool in windows you shouldn't partition again with CWM recovery.
- but If you not already partitioned your sdcard you can use partition sdcard in CWM recovery for alternatively.
- before partitioned sdcard, make sure you has backup your files in sdcard.

Press THANK if I helped you.
U dont hv to install a2sd script again. But if u hv moved ur dalvik cache to sd, then rebuilt it on internal memory coz if u remove ur sd card ur fone will go in bootloops.
If u hv partitioned ur SD card on mini tool, then u dont hv to re-partition in CWM.

You would have to flash a custom 2.1 rom to have apps2sd as well as a 2nd partition on your sd card

Is it possible with APP2SD application on rooted 2.1 original rom with created ext partition on SD card ? has anyone tested it?
1. Backup your SD Card
2. Download Amon Recovery
3. Format your SD Card (32Mb SWAP, 512Mb EXT2, FAT32 rest)
4. Convert EXT2 to EXT3
5. Flash new ROM with APPS2SD support
Hi, can anyone please detail out as to how to get apps2sd installed in my Xperia X10i.
I have Xperia X10i with 2.1. I have installed Z4Root and its rooted through it. How can I move all my apps to SD card. I really need my phone memory to be freedup as many apps like angry birds, tom cat, etc are above 14 meg. I am running short of space.
Please let me know if there are any other ways to get the apps moved to SD Card.
Thanks in advance.
Isn't it possible to make a symlink from flash towards your SD card, so that you can put apps on your sdcard in R2.1?

hi. how do i convert ext2 to ext3 ?
Ok, so I brought a new 16Gb Class 4 microSd card and I am going to partition it. I was wondering how much should I allocate to each partition type?
1. How does 14gb fat32, rest ext2 sound?
2. Should I leave any space for swap?
3. Also, out of Darktremor a2sd and Data to sd with dalvik-cache to ram, which one should I use?
4. In case if I upgrade my rom, do I have to re-enable them and copy the stuff again? Hows their compatibility with regard to upgrading?
5. Performance/drawbacks?
Thank You.
Also, does it make a difference which one is partitioned first?
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093317
It's mentioned that EXT2 is to be partitioned first but,
Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=SD_card_partitioning
Fat32 is partitioned first.
make Fat32 first if you want sd card to be recognized by Windows... if ext2 will be first, you cant access second partition on the SD card...
What about Swap?
Guys I made the partitions as said but the phone says damaged sd card. But if I format by phone, it runs ok. Any idea?
16GB SD can change with internal storage ?can someone showme where the tutorial?THX!
i just bought a 16gb sd card, anyone help me find where the tutorial ?
Here u go www.google.com

help pls ,,,,,
I have no idea what the question is.
i guess he meant he want to move apps to his sd card ..
1.download link2sd from market
2.copy paste all your sd card files to your computer ( this will format your sd card )
3.reboot to cwm
4.go advance
5.go partition sd card
6.choose your size ( i choose 1024 mb dun go 256mb too little )
7.linux swap 0 mb
9.wait ( quite long about 5mins )
10.done
11.reboot
12.enter link2sd
13. pick ext 3.
14.reboot
15. you can now send apps to sd
The easy way to do it is format it with clockworkmod, it will create an EXT partition and a swap along with the standard FAT partition.
I preferred to use commandline parted and shell fu, but there is also gparted linux liveCD or windows tools like Easeus or Minitool.
Then use link2sd to "link" apps to use the ext partition. Your ROM may already have a2sd, in which case app2sd app is a GUI to control that, or for CM you can use S2E as well
-Download 'Forece2SD' .apk file
Note: This will only work if you are rooted
If you thought My comment was gelpful, Gimme a one-up!
@kabir: force2sd doesn't appear to handle or reformat an EXT partition. There are significant issues with running apks from the FAT sdcard partition (app break on boot, disappear when using usb storage, possibly lower performance due to all the virtual mountpoints), and I think link2sd is better than force2sd because of that.
Can you really use EXT partition of SD card as internal memory ??
he mean swap right? so the main selected memory would be sd card.
i have made a tutorial
go and read it
thx you eraser0
but ur ways is too many steps to follow and it is just linked , have any idea same with this ..? , just flash with CWM and the partition changed ...lol..
Example ~http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161557
I agree.
The only purpose of suggesting force2sd was its simplicity, and I can't think of a simpler way of freeing up space.
Also, the partition. basically, all we're doing is fooling system to believe that it has more memory than it actually does.

Which rom?I prefer ext2 over ext3 bcoz its really fast.
Be sure your sd ext is 2nd partition not first and if not work create ext2 as second partition and then try link2sd.you and create partition using minitool in pc and be sure create it as parimary partition not logical.
I have a X10 mini with mini cm9 3.0.3 and nAa ics kernal v4
And yesterday, I used mini tool partition wizard 7.5 and made FAT32 and Ext4.
It was fine till that time, but I installed Link2SD and created a script. After a reboot, my phone says SD card is safe to remove in the notification panel!
So, I rebooted my phone, reinserted my SD card, went to the setting to mount SD, got into the CWM Recovery, mounted my SD card and fixed permission, but nothing was happened:crying:.
Also, the computer does not detect my SD Card, too.
I went to setting-partition info on my phone and it says:
/sdcard(FAT) 0.00B /0.00B
/sd-ext(EXT) 117MB/ 6.32 GB
even I made my Ext4 only 999MB!
What do I have to do to make my SD work again?
And I cant take a screenshot due to my SD, too. Sorry for my bad English. Thanks in advance!
