Guest KeransHQ Posted November 1, 2011 Report Posted November 1, 2011 I have an HTC Desire on Vodafone updated OTA to Froyo. I have rooted it using unrevoked and S-offed with alpha rev Using gparted on my 4gig Micro SD card I created a 1000mb Ext4 partition and a 2.96gb FAT32 partition. After that was complete and I rebooted the phone I went in to SD and phone storage and found the 2.96gb SD card but only 20-odd mb on the phone, the same as before. Have I done something wrong? shouldn't I see the 1GB Ext4 partition as the phones memory? I used the following guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084 Any advice? Sorry if this is in the wrong place or anything, I've not posted here before.

Aah I thought that may ne the problem. I am currently using the stock Rom/kernel. The guide I skinned to suggested that would work. So if I do a android backup ov my phone as it is now and just install a custom Rom would that work?

Providing it's a custom ROM using A2SD+ and it supports Ext4, yeah! Take note, if you use a ROM like MIUI you have to enable A2SD+ by running the command: get terminal from market - Type su - Type a2sd zipalign - Type a2sd cachesd Otherwise, other A2SD+ ROM's will just pick up that you have the partition. Just make sure it's an EXT4 compatible ROM
