u cant at the moment, unless your root and install apps2sd, or just wait for froyo the update thats coming soon to our desires
Is there a way to start using a2sd+ without wiping all data?
Basically, if I partition my SD card after the first boot, the a2sd script won't fire?

Why APP2SD don't work on my desire rooted and alpharev stock rom?
Any one can explain that? Thanks
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Which A2SD? The stock A2SD in the stock ROM will only allow moving of apps if enabled by the developer. If you want ALL A2SD then you'll need a custom ROM
Yes what kind of a2sd(froyo native or custom) and what have you tried to make it work?
I try APP2SD, but it only moves some apps. The same way with unrooted. :-( I think that I'm loosing something

I'll try a2sdfroyo from market, but need busybox, but what I found on the market says it is not compatible with the desire. Damm
Where I can find busybox, that works on desire?

Does it have any adverse affect leaving my ext4 partition on my SD card on my stock rooted Rom? Just in case I wanna flash a Desire HD Rom.

No, if your using a stock rom, android will just ignore the ext partition

A. I used revolutionary. It work like a charm.
B. The easy way to do it is from recovery menu [advanced>partitioning SD]. Simple
C. This is one I am using now

1. Revolutionary only, unrevoked will not work with your hboot.
2. Use 4ext recovery it's better than clockworkmod. Revolutionary will flash CWM but after rooting and rebooting just install 4ect recovery updater app from Play Store and flash recovery through it.
3. With 4ext partitioning is better, partitions are better aligned then in CWM, and you can choose which type on ext partition you want (ext3 or ext4).
But be careful, stock kernel doesn't support ext4 so you will need to flash some other kern if you want it.

+1...This is the proper way to answer this Ques. 4ext is the best recovery i've used and its so much easier to handle ROM management and has very powerful partitioning tools and some advanced features not found in other recoveries.
And for S-off, revolutionary will do the trick.
As stated: revolutionary is the easiest/fastest way to S-off
Can u plz give me guides for using 4ext recovery and partitioning by that recovery... Thanks for advise...

When you enter recovery there's an option 'tools' and inside 'partition sd'. After pressing yoi will be promped for sizes and types of partitions, choose fat32 for the first, and ext4 for first sd-ext (1-1.5GB not more) without second sd-ext and no swap.

Jst one more Que..say I made partitioning in 4ext recovery and I decided to move to CWM recovery. My SD ext partition still remain on SD card???

It will, but you don't want to move back to cwm..if it's because of ROM manager, ditch that, it will break your phone.

4ext has better options and ROM manager sucks.

4Ext once bricked my Desire
I got one lesson: don't even dare touch the recovery's configuration files in .4ext folder.

The brick 4ext gives you is a VERY recoverable brick, nothing serious......and you can always flash/change recovery from fastboot.....

ICS Sandvoid on Desire - FC / Wait / Kill
I flashed my HTC desire (Stock HBOOT) with ICS (Sandvoid) 0.15.
Installed smoothly. Then I ran a2sd install and answered y/y/y (wanted to see how far I can take it
Immediate observation was that when I run some app (facebook/youtube and even some system apps) it used to hand throw up a screen that app is not responding and option to WAIT / KILL etc
If I wait usually the app would come back but it was nagging too much.
My question is if I get a class 6+ SD card would this issue disappear?
By the way, it was beautiful to see ICS on my desire and I want to go there again.
For now shifted to Oxygen 2.3.2 with HBOOT oxygen r2. wondering if it also has an option to move data 2 ext inbuilt? tried a2sd install did not work (I know its inbuilt etc etc)

You need app2sd which can move your application and data to the partition or you use INT2SD which mounts the 1GB partition as internal memory where all the installations will be made. But therefore you need another ROM which supports that.

On factory build that's rooted the only thing that can be used is link2sd app from the market because it's kernel doesn't have init.d support. Flash some other kernel and some a2sd method (for your case with factory build I suggest darktremor a2sd), or choose some custom rom with built-in a2sd script.

Flash some other kernel from recovery, any of Droidzone for example, and you should get ext4 support.
After that flash boot.img that I attached you via fastboot (I modded for init.d support while I was using factory firmware. and then without reboot go to recovery and flash Darktremor a2sd script. After that reboot the phone and if it boots follow Darktremor instruction for a2sd that you found.
