Guest johntheman_69 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) ok im really new to this. I have a sprint hero flashed with modacos 2.2 custom rom. rebooted into recovery wiped sd, partitioned sd, wiped data, installed update(modaco 2.2) .zip, Ive read apps2sd is automatic but my internal memory is going down, sd memory staying the same. I go into astro file manager into sd and is only rossy scroll. noting in system/apps. tried to upgrade ex2 to ex3 and no affect. partitioned sd to swap 52, ext2 512 and ext3 to remainder and no matter what i do ext2 or ext3 i check sd memory in settings and it stays the amount in remainder. can anyone help please???.would really like apps to go to sd thank you very much :D Edited February 22, 2010 by johntheman_69

Then you would have an ext partition, usually 512MB. I recommend ext3 as this is a journaliing file system with some ability to recover from data errors. Ext2 is older and a bit faster, but does not journal changes to the file system, so has no way to recover from errors. The last partition is usually FAT32 and takes up the remainder of your sdcard. For aps2sd, you need the ext partition. That's where the apps go instead of in your phone's internal storage. Some ROMs require you to run a script to enable it. Other have it on by default. I do not know the ROM you're talking about. It is very rare that the entire sdcard would be ext2/3 or 4. That would require a special hack. Does your ROM support that? If not, you want the config i describe: 1) linux swap (64MB is good), 2) ext3 512MB and 3) fat32 for remainder.
