I formatted my sd card, and left 7.2 gb in fat32 and 200mb in ext2 ......
only when I install the swapper appears only FAT32 option, which can be? I could pass a new way to do it right? or a new download link swapper .. ?
thanks !!
I think swapper needs SWAP partition, not EXT

i have CM3.2 with his new recovery img (1.1)
i have seen alot of ways to do apps2sd, but what is easiest most stable way to do it with his ROMS
*i have unpartitioned 4gb Class 6 Card. Need a step by step that will go smooth with his ROM...thanks ahead of time
First partition your sd card so it has Fat32 & Ext3 (in that order). On my 4Gb I use 3.5Gb for storage (fat32) and 500Mb for apps2sd (ext3)
Upgrade to CM 3.4 (To support ext3) and load recovery and click the "move apps to sd"

his roms only support ext3 now? but if i use ext3, if i later want to use hero will my apps2sd still work or will i have to redo it?
Ok, I just got my nexus today and flashed Modaco alpha 21.
I saw there was an apps2sd version but instead downloaded the normal one.
Do I really need apps2sd on a 4gb class 2 card?
Can you point me in the direction of how to set this up for modaco.
Also, do I need swap?

Thats what i used, its fairly simple and well wrote. Use the recovery ROM method, its the fastest and easiest.
To set up App2SD, you need an ext partition on your SD card and the userinit.sh script to initialise App2SD (search for it!!)... a faster SD card is recommended for App2SD, though it will work you ur 4GB class 2 card. Use App2SD only if you want to install many market applications and u know that the internal memory won't suffice. And for the Nexus one, if you've got HiMem enabled, you do not need any swap partition...
I am totally baffled by this. I've had a2sd working once before, but this time it just won't work. I flashed cyanogen 6.1.1 for my phone, Nexus One, and added google apps by flashing that too, and the rom works fine.
I have partitioned my SD card with 30gb FAT, 1.1gb ext3, 60mb swap and the rest free. I then flashed darktremor. Now, when I open titanium backup pro, I see the bar for a2sd showing free space, and it says 152mb total, 20.2mb free.
Why do I not have the full size of my ext3 partition available?
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks guys
I have the same problem! Before starting a new thread I thought of posting it here,
I partitioned SD with Amon RA recovery (2.0.1) first with EXT2 and converted to EXT3
I have similar amount of memory, 138mb ! Isnt the partition made with recovery detected by the ROM?
Details : Fat32 3.5GB, EXT3 512MB
Look HERE the internal memory doesnt show the memory in the EXT partition. But apps get installed in there when you install them normally. Just check if your A2SD+ is working by the Quick System Info market app.
I read the whole thread A-Z, I suggest newbies do the same to get an understanding.
EDIT: DATA2SD shows this as the internal memory!
I'm using CM 7.2 and I finally decide to partition my sd card.
I wanna ask how big I should create those partitions. I have 16gb sd card class 2
fat 32 size?
ext3/4 size?
swap size?
and which order I should create?
thx in advice
You can create them from cwm simply without problems
sdext 1GB
swap 64MB
Order is important?
for example fat32 partition 0, ext3 partition 1 and swap partition 2?

No, go in cwm, advanced, partitions sdcard.
cwm will make all. try to go in cwm so can you see the options
if you want use a different software like minitool partition, you can creat 3 partitions all primary partitions:
1) sdcard in fat32
2) sdext in ext3 or ext4
3) swap
I've partitioned my sd to 512ext but never reach 200mb used..

16gb? so big memory for me
Ext 512mb and swap 64mb are enough for apps I thinks that...
Ext4 is better than Ext3, so if you can use gparted live (or minitools) to create the Ext4

hi,
u can keep 512-1 gb as ex3 partition. u can use cwm. its better and simple.
and hey a question? u r having 16 gb ? i tried with 8gb and my phone hanged like anything.. how u managee 16gb ??/
I do nothing to manage 16gb, all works fine. I only set cache sd to 2mb
I have partition my sd with cmw (1024 ext, 64mb swap). now I have 128mb freed in my rom.
thx to all!!!

you re welcome buddy
Read this about how to partition your sd-card
http://yagyagaire.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-partition-sd-card-and-install.html
Also, Since you have 16 GB sdcard memory, best sizes should be 1-2 GB sd-ext, remaining FAT32, no swap.
I partitoned my 8gb sd card with mini partition tool
6.xx...gb as primary fat32 and 800mb as ext4 primary
now after using it for some time..now i wanted to do a fresh repartitioning
so i formatted the sd card using cwm recovery...
Now I inserted my sd card into the laptop sd card slot..(using adpater)
Now the mini partition tool only recognizes 6.5GB as primary fat32 but its not showing any 800 MB ext4 partition
I tried deleting fat32..i thought may b it vl now show up ext4..but nothing jus 6.XX GB unallocated
but i want whole 7.XXGB unallocated so that i can repartition everything again
So wat do i do to get my the whole 7.xx GB memory back??

Using mini partition tool, delete both the partitions and format it to fat32
