[Q] Rom manager partition, ext2 or ext3? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

which kind of ext should make rom manager on sd? ext2 or ext3?

Ext3
HTC Desire + XDA Inhouse App

Which also appears to be the most stable ext partition on the desire at the moment.

does the rom manager create automatically an ext3 partition? have no choice between ext2 or ext3. or does rom manager create an ext2....???? that is the question!

Yes, it does

And the cwm 3.0.2.4 makes also the ext3 partition ?

Has ROM Manager fixed the problem of partitioning SD cards? Last time I heard there were few bricks out there.

Yes. You can go from EXT3 to EXT4 any time.
The ROM that you install, should support EXT4.
And for recovery, i would recommend you use 4EXT Recovery. It has options for EXT3 <-> EXT4 conversions.
i hear ext4 has a backward compatibility with ext3, so there shouldn't be any problem switching

for installing galaxy nexus by JM,i created 512Mb external partition with 0 swap size.You can create SD card partition from recovery.It can be deleted whenever you want by formatting the SD card.
For MTD partitioning you can see this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233340
for galaxy nexus by JM 145Mb system partition and 20Mb cache size should be enough.
If I create 512 mb with 0 swap size SD card partion does other any custom rom will automatically detect it?
Ext3 or ext4 which one to choose for partitioning?

I might be wrong but I think CWM recovery creates ext3 partition on your SD card,so that would do.
And I have used the same 512Mb partition for rempuzzle rom and for galaxy nexus by JM as well.But when I installed MIUI gingerbread it didnt seem to work,coz it was moving apps to the unpartitioned space.So I think it should work only for the roms for which a partition is required.I might be wrong though.
Correct me if Iam wrong that means a Rom which does not us sd-ext feature will not boot or will have some problem???

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If a ROM doesn't use the EXT partition there is no problem.
You can even flash DarkTremor A2SD to get the same functionality.
K...thanks guys...can someone provide a link for darktremor a2sd

You must have second partition (ext2,3,4) on your sdcard. There is link how to make it http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning. What ext partition you select that must be from your rom. I am using ext4. GL with partitioning
Partition ur SD card in CWM or using Minitool Partition Wizard In PC. (To create an EXT partition)
Then Install Data2SD DroidZone if Ur Rom does Not have the Data2SD preintgrated.
Thats alll........
