hi partitioned my sd card so no probs there, ive been searching for that exactly i do with the partition now ive got it lol,
in titanium backup i can see theres stuff on the new partition but ive no clue whats on there, so whats it for & how do i put things on it & what things? but most of all why did i make it in the first place?? lol
you're supposed to research this stuff before you do it...
i also hope that you've used either gparted or 4ext recovery to parition (not minitool...)
basically the partition is generally for apps. it's better than normal android 'move to SD' because you can move all of the app, and can move widgets too. you can also move dalvik cache to sd as well depending on the script.
this all depends on what rom your are using and what built in script (if any) it uses to move bits around.
further reading here, i'd recommend reading through more of those guides just for more general learning...
titanium backup will show that the partition is filling up. better apps like 'diskusage' will show you how all your partitions are being used.
i did try to find out as much as i could & the reson i did it before knowing why is cos i want to know i can do it more than anything else all i knew was everyone else is doin it so i needed to know how lol
thanks for the link i'll enjoy reading it
i used rom manager to do it hope i used the right one cos everone else seemed to be useing it

Yh, dont use rom manager (cwm) to partition ur sdcard, it makes bad partitions. Like eddie says, use gparted or download http://4ext.net/ updater app then install 4ext recovery and use that to partition sdcard.
Dont forget backup first

installing 4ext recovery will remove clockworkmod
uninstall rom manager like you would any other app if you haven't already. you don't need it, and can cause real problems if you use it with this phone.
ok i'll do that when i workout how to do it then lol

yh nandroid backup and save on computer also anything else u want to save. then depending on what rom ur going to install, partition ur sdcard to what ever the rom requires. so once u know that, boot into recovery go to tools/partition sdcard/ remove all partitions and start from scratch.
then ul have to choose size, normally most requirements would be this setup
1024 (1gb)
skip
skip
then choose ext4 and ur done.
just dont go bigger than 1.5gb ext4 (1524)
check ron requirments first tho

Hello, i am obviously new to this website and a bit of a noob when when comes to andriod rooting. Anyways, my HTC Wildfire S will not boot. It will show the HTC logo for around 25 seconds and turn off and do it again. My phone was rooted and had s-off. I tried to overclock my phone with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1430677 It seemed like the install worked but after it would not boot. I tried a factory reset, wipe cache, basically wiped everything and my phone would still be in a bootloop. Also tried flashing a rom and that did not work it would abort the installation. Also tried to restore to my backup i made, and came up with a md5 mismatch. I messed up big. For a while also my phone would vibrate like 8 times in the bootloop with a black screen but that stopped.
Here are my device specs:
Andriod Htc Wildfire S 2.3.4(i think)
MarvelC PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT_1.06.0000
MICROP-0354
RADIO-0.94.00.0824

Did u make an ext partition before installing Rom? I would also try changing your cwm recovery to 5.0.2.6. I'm using the same hboot and device as you. Had no problems with that recovery. Also make sure u wipe dalvik cache, then under mounts and storage format boot, data, system, cache, and SD ext.

Hi,
I just rooted my HTC Desire HD, and installed a custom ROM (Android Revolution HD 6.3.2). After starting up the phone, I tried to change the skin on the phone (I don't like the original skin) but every time I press the Skin-button (Personalize -> Skin) I get the error message; Sorry! The application Skin Picker (process com.htc.skinpicker) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Any idea of how to fix this?
thank you in advance.
You can try fixing the permissions. If you have 4ext recovery I believe it has an option or you can download rom manager. Either one might fix it.

As far as I can guess you flashed Gapps lite version... That just bundles with playstore. You need to download other stuff from the playstore itself.

I never heard about this problem earlier. But here's a step by step guide to install it. Double check it. Also I recommend CM9 coz I guess you are new to custom roms and its wayy less buggy and will save you from frustration.
In recovery:
1. Wipe data/factory reset.
2. wipe davlik cache.
3. install zip from sd. (Install ROM)
4. Install zip from sd (Install G-apps package)
5. Reboot.
7. If everything goes well you'll see one time startup asking for your google id and all that stuff.
8. when it's fully booted install whatever you are using to incease memory like data 2 sd scripts or link2sd.
9. reboot.
You're done.

I went back to my backed up stock, but this time I used TB to remove some of the bloatware and it's good.
I am giving this mobile to my mom so I wanted it working good, but for her limited uses I think the stock htc room should be good and simple to use.
Will look into link2sd, never used it before.

I would check it for you but it's not possible now since I went back to stock HTC (2.3) from backup and just removed some of the bloatware before giving it to my mom as I think she would find JB a little confusing compared to HTC's skin.
I guess thats best...

Hi, I have a problem where the phone only allows me to install about four 3-4mb apps before is says 'storage space is running low'. This has been the case for a long time over many roms.
Tried with and without an 1gb ext4 partition on a 16gb and 32gb memory card. Roms tried include most ICS, JB 4.1 and JB 4.2. Have also tried with a2sd and without. Result: no changes.
Am currently on Nikez's 4.2 roms.
I hope there is a solution...

Exactly after flashing the rom, flash this:

It should get you a lot more space by also moving dalvik cache to sd-ext (no need for terminal commands anymore)

go here: http://4ext.net/ and download the apk
install it on your phone, and open the app to install the recovery
this will overwrite you current recovery which is fine.
Then go here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2125513
Read part 4 of that guide.
Once you are done making the partition, boot into your rom. Open terminal emulator and run these commands (press enter after each line)
su
a2sd install

I do same thing with clockworth recovery on my desire. Make a 1gb (vor less) partition with ext4 and then use a2sd after booting in cm10.1 v5.3 rom. Works fine.

You'll have problems later, you'll see.
You know, we aren't telling you to do something just because we're nuts. CWM recovery does bad partitions, that may damage the sd-card, and make the phone work slow.

lol i agree. When i first had to make a sd-ext partition i used cwm and it messed up my sd card. I had to reformat.
Also avoid minitool partition wizard, that messed my card up too
Done everything as in abaaaabbbb63 tutorial, made 1gb partition and now i got 113mb free on phone memory, is this right?
However, again and again guys, thank u, it works really good now!

yes if you go to settings>storage it wont display the free space on the sd-ext partition.
If you want to see that download titanium backup, and it will show you how much is left on sd-ext
