Hi
I am having trouble to make my phone recognize my ext partition
THis is what I did ...
Format sd into FAT32
Use Gparted to resize FAT32 into a 6.4gb and 1GB ext4 and 32mb linux swap
And i wiped all data and installed the ROM(Reflex S 2.1.5)
When I boot into ROM, and go to Setting->Application ... i see i can use only 134mb as internal disk space
But in Storage and Mounts I can see that there is 1GB of ext partition
Please help

Your phone recognize the memory since in Settings it tells you have 1GB. You need to use a script called A2SD+ to be able to use that memory. The script will move almost all applications to that partition, but still use some of your phone's memory so you don't need to worry. This is normal.
But I did do the same process for my friend ... Installed same ROM and it recognizes his ext as internal

Are you sure the partition is formatted correctly and the ROM you are using supports a2sd+?

I can see
Total Space - 6.4GB
Avlbl SPace -6.15GB
Available on ext partition - 616mb
INTERNAL STORAGE
Available Space on /System - 9.13mb
Avialable Space on /Data - 130mb
Try reformat your SD card directly from GParted. So you enter in gparted, delete all partitions, make FAT32 Primary (First), make EXT4 Primary (Sencond) with no space between the partitions.
Also do you have installed A2SD+ script??

Hello, I tried searching everewhere but couldn't find problem exactly like mine. I installed SuperNova for my Desire phone and everything seemed fine, I created 2 partitions one FAT32 and one EXT4, I done all as they said, and now my phone is showing:
SD Card
Total Space: 10.76GB
Available Space: 9.78GB
Internal Storage
Available Space:
3.66GB
And when I go to Settings->Applications it says, No Applications, 92MB used, 3.7GB free on Internal Storage
But everytime I want to enter messages I got this:
Unable to manage your
messages because your storage
is full. Please delete content
from other applications to make
more space.
Anyone can please help me? Is big problem if I put FAT32 as Primary and EXT4 as Logical partition as I don't remember what was for EXT4. FAT32 is primary 100% !?
Both partitions must be primary and aligned to MB.The First partition must be Fat32 Primary, and the second should be ext4 Primary.
What is the size of ext4 partition? It should not be larger than 2gb when you flash Supernova for first time.
Did you follow this instruction http://supernova.droidzone.in/?cat=6 ?
P.S. Pozdrav
It is 3 gb and it is logical. Is there way to reverse everything on my sd card?
Only option as far as I can see is repartitioning sd card with Gparted or 4Ext Recovery and flashing rom again. Before that backup the content of sd card to PC
Just follow instruction from link in my previous post.
I flashed Supernova few days ago but I had some issues with freezing for second or two and was little slow but I think that problem is in my sd card. Generaly speaking Supernova rom is perfect.
Why don't you just restore your files and re-do it again ?

Repartition ext4 to 1.5GB, and try again.
Droidzone which is the optimal ext4 partition to SD card for stability and performance of Supernova Extreme? 1GB or 1,5GB? Thank you.

pls i need help
Hi did you try redo it with gparted? or flash better recovery to setup partitions on your sd card... some rom are not showing all space from ext partition... BTW why you have swap? instruction saying 0 MB for swap
Its working correctly, the 183Mb free space will decrease slowly but it is using the 2Gb ext partition for app storage. Also, you don't need a swap partition. My advice is to start again, either do a backup, repartition your SD card with 1Gb ext and 0 swap and then restore or just do the partitioning and flash the ROM from scratch.

I think he meant : Can it be 2 GB for sd-ext partition and rest from 1st post... no clue what he is about
i have another Q
does i need to install data2ext or a2sd rom ????
First answer my question, then I answer your question.
some one tell me to partition sd card 1GB and swap 0M and i ask him can i use 2 GB or i can only but 1GB
does i need to install data2ext or a2sd rom ????
If you constantly ignore what we are telling, you won't get any answer any more.
I'm new in this so maybe this is a stupid question.
I need now to make a partition in 4extrecovery but when I go to Partition SD Card and then no- save my FAT32 partiton, then 1024 (1st sd-ext), then 0 (2nd sd-ext), then 512 (swap), then I got a error it says: There is too little space on the device to create this partiton layout.
I have a 8GB sd card and free is more then 4GB.

I have a backup.
Someone please help?
If ur changing roms you will have to just backup your apps without the data, put the backup on your computer, then in recovery partition your sdcard to what the rom dev recommends then install the rom then put the backup back on your sdcard and install them all again.

I've experienced this. Backup your entire sd card to your computer. There is no other way to do it. Partition your card without saving the FAT32. Set the size of the EXT partition you want, swap 0. That should do it.
Lets say you set 512MB as your SD EXT partition, and the rest is FAT32, the next time you try and repartition your SD EXT saving your FAT32, you can only partition it to less than the existing SD EXT partition. On my example that would be 512MB.
The reason you are getting that error when you do it right now is because you basically do not have an ext partition. So no exisiting ext partition=not enough space to work with.
i have a 4 Gb sd card that i had partioned using minitool partition wizard (500 mb ext4, 100 mb linux swap and rest fat32 )...it was functioning very well,untill i accidentally removed it from the memory card slot while flashing a new rom
now i have an unallocated space with 1 Gb, i cant format it, and minitool partition wizard says bad disk
need help if possible cz i can't afford a new one :crying:

- Insert memory card in card reader and connect.
- Open minitool.
- In the top where the software displays all the partitions in graphical way right click and select delete all partitions.
- Select apply.
- Now remove the card.
- Insert again (I recommend these two steps as i had some problem if i didn't follow this.)
- Run minitool again.
- Create partition (fat32, primary, your size)
- then create ext4 partition ( ext4, primary, yoursize.)
- Apply.
connect card to computer and open minitool partition wizard, click recovery partition and full scan your card. if there is any problem, it can find it out and fix it.

I think u have to activate the script by terminal emulater like how u do a2sd but I never used int2ext.

- Find out what is using your internal memory first. Install something like DiskUsage, enable root and browse your actual /data partition. It should be 147MB total size. It's probably filling up despite the script. This may explain the low memory warning
- How did you partition your sd card? Should be done with 4EXT recovery or gparted only, not clockworkmod or minitool
- Did you install the correct version of the script for your partition? I've only used it once on a different phone / ROM. I used in2ext4+ or something like that, suitable for an ext4 partition, seemed to work
You could repartition to an ext4 partition (slightly faster than ext3), and pick the version of the script which moves apps and dalvik cache to the sd-ext.
Why don't you try Beanstalk RC6 4.4.4 + mounts2sd? You will never have low mem issues.. specially if u move everything to ext4. The thing is you need a good sd card..
