Hey guys, this is my first post and I'm a bit of a newbie so bare win me. On my desire I have cyanogenmod 6.0.2 which includes apps2sd and so on, but even after moving all the apps that can move to my SD I still get the low memory warning. On my process manager widget it tells me I still have 285mb free but my system memory is only around 14mb. I have formatted my SD to have an fat32 partition and an ext2 and then reflashed my cyanogen rom. I have tried that same process 3 times now, once with ext 3, once with ext4, and now the ext2 and still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Format sd-ext and you're fine.

Hi All
I am having problems partitioning my sd card. My phone is a HTC Wildfire S A510e. The phone is running Cyanogen Mod Version 10-20130103-NIGHTLY-marvel Android version 4.1.2. I have tried using link2sd to create 2nd mount but all I get is unable to mount script I have also tried doing this via recovery but no luck that way and with mini tool I have had no luck. I would be really happy if some one would help me do this as I am fed up with low storage warnings.
Many Thanks
Paul

you can try int2ext+ scripts.its good and better than link2sd.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124
but do that with clean install like if you going to install rom again.
or try link2sd.
partition are,
fat32 remaining space
ext3/ext4 1 GB is enough i think
linux swap 512 MB
all partition should be primary

Use the search feature.......These are things you have to do yourself
But why do I get Resource or Device Busy error when mounting ext2 in link2sd? Is it necessary to Mount?

I rooted my desire 816 [still running the stock rom] and I wanted to try link2sd so I partitioned my SD card and created an ext4 primary partition.. opened link2sd app,installed mount scripts and restarted the phone but the ext partition is still unmounted.. tried ext2 but ended up with the same result!
searched a lot but found so many confusing topics that got me more confused!
what should I do to get the ext partition to be mounted on boot?!
also is app2ext better than link2sd? if so, then how to install it too?
thank you guys in advance..

Check this video.

The video maker Potent Technologies has a .zip file available from kinghunki that automatically adds the wp_mod.ko file and the permissions on boot with one flashable zip via custom recovery.

Thanks! but I think the zip file is for enabling SD card write permissions only..
my problem is that the EXT partition I created doesn't mount on boot and I don't know how to enable that since I'm on stock rom not a custom one..
I am having the same problem. I even flashed that zip but It didn't help.
I had read somewhere that the Exp partition size should be 20% of the microSD card size at most. is it relevant here?
I've also made a Linux swap. the order of my partitions is :
1. fat 32 :15 GB primary, Active
2. Ext4 :now 5 GB primary (It would fail mount with Ext3)
3. Linux Swap : 1.5 GB

that zip is for re-enabling writing permissions on SD card which is disabled in KitKat by default.
------
you don't need that much for the ext partition.. it should be no more than 20% of the SD card size.
I guess you made the ext this size because of games, right? you should use foldermount instead.. It's AWESOME!!
------
I have a stock rom and I don't intend to flash any custom rom but a stable lollipop rom.

I have no problems with partitioning my SD card at all, my problem is how to add "Init.d" support in my stock rom to be able to mount my ext partition at boot.
I guess this is gonna fix it for us
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/development/mod-enable-init-d-stock-kernel-vm-t2987126

Meaning after he restarts the device the SD doesn't need to be remounted with a command in order for link2sd to work.

KitKat and Lollipop require different fixes.
