A2SD+ and new SD CARD


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have tried to search the forums but wasn't able to find an answer.

Right now I'm using A2SD+ with the SD card that came with my phone. I would like to switch to a larger card. Do I just format the card with clockworkmod and boot up with it and everything will work?

I am also wondering why when I make a nandroid backup it says that it cant backup my ext partition even though A2SD+ works?

Thanks for your help :)

Hi

Edit

In Rom manager scroll to the bottom and select all clockwork mod recoveries and select 2.0.2.0

Scroll to the top and reboot in to recovery.

Edit

Put your new card in and reboot into clockwork mod as you would normaly.

Format the card as you want for app2sd+.

Reboot with your old card and use astro to backup your apps.

On your new card delete all the data in the fat32 partition.

Copy all data from old card and then use astro to restore your apps.

The other option that might work is to take a full nandroid backup and restore to your new card.

You might need to re-size the the new SD card afterwards. You can use gparted I'm sure if you Google "gparted boot cd" you will find one.

Move the ext and swap partitions to the end and then re-size the fat32 partition.

Hope that helps
