Hi everyone. At the start i want to say i'm a complete noob. I'vo got root and everything needed. So i partitioned my card(4gb) in Minitool wizard. Everything is fine but still i've got only 14mb free. I installed link2sd and still the same. Then i tried to partition it in cwm and still is the same! i tried to install Data2sdV2withA2sdremover_by_jikantaru.zip for cm9 but it stopped at htc logo. Thank God i had a backup. I don't know how to do it that the partition size will appear in the internal memory. I tried everything but s**i. PLEASE HELP ME :crying: One more time i am a COMPLETE N00B.

OK try this get SDFormatter v3.1 and format the card to FAT32(quick format is fine) with format size adjustment ON.
Replace card in fone and then use cwm recovery to create any ext partition you require.
Hope it works.

No, you will need to create an ext partition with cwm and then install some data2sd script.
Don't know what rom you are using but best to go the rom thread and see which one is best for you.
If you are on ICS it's worth reading the wiki page on data2sd.
I have always used amarultz's script without issues. There is a zip version which can be installed via cwm.

Hi guys,
I couldn't find anything about this (I did try searching before posting this thread, so I hope I am not repeating a common question!).... I wish to unpartition my sd card and just go back to a normal fat32 partition....
So far I have tired windows disk management and Rom Manager, which just allows you to ADD a ext partition with no luck!
Can anyone else guide me how to achieve this?
Regards!

:O Thanks, which recovery should I be using? :s
System recover? clockworkmod using the fake flash method? because I don't see the Partition SD Card menu anywhere else and i've tried both!
I know its right in front of me somewhere, I just can't see it, D'oh!
use the one from rooting folder
Bah,
I ended up using GPart live cd to undo it!!
Thanks for the responses guys, hopefully this will help someone else who needs it!

That's fine, it's why I created the thread!
If you just want to partition you can use ROM Manager (but this requires root)
you need the recovery file (entitled 'pushfiles' or something) from the risk-free root package to partition/un-partition the card.
Else, you can use a GPart live CD, which makes it really easy!
Hope that helps buddy...

I already partitioned my SD card via GParted, got a 16 gb card partitioned as follows:
14 gb fat32
1 gb ext2
250 gb swap
However in recovery, when I try to mount sd-ext it fails to do so Don't know why...

If you're using a2sd+ then you need to change your ext2 partition to ext3, Also, I don't believe that you need a swap partition anymore...
Try that!

lol, lets give the guy a break.... we all know it was a 256GB Flash card!
Anywhooo, I have another question, so I think i'll hijack my own thread!
Guys, whats the most efficient way to backup/restore and move apps between roms? I've ended up manually re-installing installed apps 2/3 times now, I was going between roms that did/didn't support a2sd. Also, should there be any consideration to any specific backup options available in the various tools?
Thanks in advance!
Hi, my phone got bricked using GPart live to turn my ext 2 into a 3 partition. Everything went fine using the program, turned off Usb storage, went into market and tried to download a program, when it started to install the screen when black.
Now I cant boot with sdcard in, I don't come past the white HTC screen
Without SDcard it starts loading the system but the loading is a never ending loop.
Tried to format SD with fakeflash, dosent help
Tried reflashing my rom with wipe and everything, dosent help
Any ideas?

I would say, firstly try to get your phone working by wiping it clean and re flashing the rom. Use a different memory card just to get up and running. Then you can concentrate on fixing you card..
Although that seems like a very strange issue, are you sure you formatted your card correctly with GPart? (eg, exactly 512 MB/1024MB?) I'm a n00b myself so I would also wait for some of the more experienced users to offer their input. lol

Solved it by using AM recovery, repair + new partition solved the problem! Gonna reflash 2.0 again since i messed up the wiping somehow and then keep this until the rooted 2.2 is out!
Hey guys,
I've been trying to flash my phone with just about any ROM as any I seem to try end up sticking on the HTC splash screen. The only one that doesn't is the Devillain one which would be fine if it wasn't for the fact that a) the SD card doesn't mount for some reason and b) my bluetooth headset only transmits music and doesn't allow calls over BT.
Anyone have any ideas why so many roms don't work? I've tried Clockwork mod and Amon RA Recovery and both produce the same result. It's really beginning to annoy me
Maybe they use Apps2SD+?
Ok so how would I install that? Thought it was included on the ROM's to be honest so I haven't put it on there!

Still very new on this, but I guess you need to create a special (ext) partition on your SD card for Apps2SD+ to work...
As far as I know, you can do this from the recovery menu...
Please correct me if I'm wrong...

Correct! But you can also use ROM Manager which makes the creation of the partition easier, but remember to backup data from sd as it will be wiped!
So if I just create a ext partition (which I've done through Amon Ra recovery) it should work? Just transferring some ROM's over now and will try again.
Yes, setup an Ext2 partition. Then convert it to Ext3.
I love you guys I had an ext 3 partition before but for some reason it didn't work properly. Having formatted again I've just installed DJDroid's Rom

I made partition with Rom Manager.
Do I need now to "swap" ext2 to ext3?
If so, how do I do it?!
Have you tried DeFrost? I haven't installed anything (Like A2SD) on top of the ROM itself so if that's the issue, this ROM should work for you.
Hi, I have been trying for quite some time to flash this rom onto my Desire but I keep getting caught in a bootloop. The link to the rom is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1250815. I have a Telus HTC Desire, I have S-Off and am using CWM-AlphaRev Recovery v2.5.1.8. My hboot is CM7r2 and I have been searching the previously mentioned thread but can't figure out why there is bootloop. Can somebody walk me through the steps on how to fix this issue?
Did you partition your SD card with ext partition?
SwiftKeyed from dGB using Transparent XDA App
No I did not. How do you even do this? Also, will that delete everything on my sd?

You have that option in AlphaRev Recovery v2.5.1.8.
And yes,its format all data on SD card so make backup of your data
After I partition my sd, do I put everything back on to it and then try the flash again?

Yes that will work.
Unfortunately the op in the thread does not state that an external partition is needed. But yes, an ext4 partition of 1gb will be enough to get the rom to work.
Alright. I will try this out and post later with my result. Thanks guys!
Use an ext partition with minimum 1 Gigabyte to make sure there is enough space.

It worked but it seems to be a bit laggy. I'm not sure if this is because it is a beta still, or I did the partitioning wrong. I chose 1 Gb as my first option to partition, but then it gives an option after saying 0M, 32M, 64M, etc. I chose the 32M, is that still right?

Hey guys, I recently flashed benjamingwynn's cm 10. I really liked the rom but the rom takes up a lot of space. My internal memory is very low, so even if I use link2sd I was only able to install some apps. Then I tried data2sd from the market. I created a storage file but when I try to mount it, there's nothing happening. Is there any way to make data2sd working? Should I follow any other steps?
Thanks in advance!

Data2sd from market? lol.
Data2sd is a script which is only flashed by installing from recovery or rom manager... Get cronmod int2ext+ script and flash it from recovery. It works pretty well.
I can only repeat sukhjit321, you have to flash it in recovery.
Download this: http://www.mediafire.com/?t1r06j60gybhn2t
Put it on your SD card, then install it from recovery just like a rom (delete cache partition and dalvik cache before).
Or try int2ext+ or something else, but you have to flash all of them in the recovery.

Yes, first make a FAT32 partition, and then an ext4 partition (the ext4 is going to be your internal memory, so make it as big as you want)

Hi....i have a Wildfire S working on CM10. Im facing the problems of Low internal memory too...I have tried usinbg Link2Sd but barely helps...again doomed for low internal memory...if i flash data2sd try int2ext+ or something else, i wud have to flash all of them in the recovery by going in recovery mode and the install from SD card..BUT do i have to wipe everything or what i mean to say is do i have to flash the CM10 all over again by deleting everything OR just flashing DATA2SD / int2ext+ wud help.
Beacuse while using Link 2Sd i have already created partiion EXT4 for about 3GB on my 8 GB SD card..
Please suggest how i must do the process ....
Regards ,
Piyush
no...don't flash data2s or int2ext or othe sceipt simultanuslly....lit will cause crash...and u can use your link2sd partition as 2 nd partition....but if after flashing int2ext+ your internal memory dont change and 150 mb than you have to make patition again...sad..

Hey in CWM recovery normally it is present in advanced >> Partition SD card but for CWM version 6.0.4.8 there is no "Partition SD card" option thats the problem. May be @oliver didnot include this feature in this recovery software:crying:
