r u rooted. if so go for sd ext partition.
the other way is to apply blackrose and resize ur partition(but it requires some reading before doing)

Thanks.
But, what's the best? I already used some changes on partition and got the system reall slow...
Any down side on that?
Thanks.

If your phone is rooted..then depending on the ROM, it's possible to increase the internal memory...for instant with blackrose you can resize the phones partition...what ROM are you using anyway?

I tried a extension from the Oxygen ROM, that used data2sd, it worked but the phone became really really small, so I removed.

I'm going to try that blackrose, see if it works. Going to search for some tutorials.
Thanks

No luck using Blackrose, I think I can only change the internal partition, like the internal 512mb, I want to use my SD to the apps.
I was unable to create a big system partition, like 1000mb (1gb)

You should read the BlackRose thread some more. 1 Hint:
Code:
SYSTEM + CACHE + USERDATA = 436MB

Yeah, I understood that. But I want to Increase it, don't resize. With BlackRose I was only able to resize in 436mb, not increase it

From the BlackRose OP:
FEATURE
Security OFF
None padlock mark even unlocked
Password protection
Engineering command
BlackRose custom command
Change boot logo
Resize Partition
Select menu by pressing trackball
Switch vibration at boot
CRC32 check function
Prevent overwrite HBOOT by RUU

You can only resize partitions. For increasing you should use an A2SD-variant.

Thanks, got it. Understood.
Any tips on it? What app, util, should I use?

I don't use A2SD (or any other variant), but I believe there are some threads about it floating around somewhere. Please search

Thank you guys. I tried the Darktremor and did not work.
I need to check this partition thing first, I thought I did it right, but no luck.
The problem right now is when I start the Android all my programs are gone, like the system is Wiped
Yes, I made a backup first, but no luck. I think this is right, I will need to start again.

[GUIDE] Partitioning your SD Card to use swap and or lin2sd :)

There is probably a guide for this already, but if there is, it is deep, deep down
What we will need:
Some way to connect the SD Card to the PC (using the phone USB with storage mode on is fine)
Minitool partition wizard - http://partitionwizard.com - the home edition is fine for this.
The steps:
Connect the SD card to the computer
Launch minitool

}
Select your SD Card MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT SELECT YOUR HARD DRIVE!
On the left, there will be an option to Resize the drive. Select this and resize as necessary (If you have a 6GB drive, and want a 1GB ext2, resize it to 5GB).
Do the same again for a swap partition.
Check the operations on the left bar, to make sure you are happy with them and click 'Apply'.
Wait for it to complete. DONE! Eject you sdcard, and put it back into your phone. You can now download an app like link2sd to use it, or use swap
NOTE: I am in no way responsible if your data goes missing!
NOTE2: Not all ROM's have swap support. Most (if not all) CM rom's now do, however, you may need the 07swapon script. Please check my post to get that

It's the same thread like this?:

I think you or anyone could make a tutorial about how to build up a system (not a kernel, but just a e.g. cm7, cm9, aokp, aosp), in order to make our developer thread much more colorful. Just an idea...

To build from source it builds both system and kernel...

OK, then both, I think it doesn't mean much...

There are many guides out there but for gt540 its slightly different.

So how is link2sd and clockwormod recovery backup?
When I have ext2/3/4 secondary partition and create backup, than do files and linked stuff go to sd-ext? After restore will there be working linking during boot? And what happens when the secondary partition is fat32?

When you backup with CWM, as long as the ROM you are using mounts the /sd-ext.
When the backup file is made, the sd-ext file contains all the symlinks, so yes, backups work (I have made it loads of times).

if u create ext4 part usin cwm, yes. u ll lose all data on sd. so u need backup. but with gparted or for windows users, minitool partition tool, u can keep them. any case, u should backup.
Also after flash the script, probably u have to wipe data/factory reset.

need i make sd card have >2 or 3gb free?

Whats the best EXT-4 partition on SD-Card, 1GB, 1.5GB or 2GB?
Its accdg to Zohaib thats why those are my choices. Is 4GB also ok?

If you have:
2gb memory card - 256 mb
4gb memory card - 512mb
8gb memory card - 1gb
16gb memory card - 2gb
32gb memory card - 4gb
This is recommended but you can use any size

You can use Computer Management section if You run Windows OS.
You can delete partitions there. I always use it.

Hi SzalonyKronicarz!
If the SD partition is ext2/ext3/ext4 Windows OS will not see it.
Though, Windows OS computer management section is useful for FAT/FAT32/NTFS partitions.
Good luck.

I can't agree with You.
It works just fine for deleting partitions.
Windows may not use this type of partitions but can see and delete.
Actually I don't have any english version of Windows but I'd like to show You that I am right:
You can see, that partitons exist.
It says "Zdrowy,nieznana partycja" - english: healthy - unknown partition.
You can also see "Usuń partycję" - english: delete partition.
Both partitions were created under CWM Recovery.

i haven't used swapper, but if you're going to use a swap file, you don't need a swap partition.

The message shows ext partition is supported & you don't have ext partition ...
About swap, if you're noob use other apps to create swap file(instead of partition)(apps like ram expander {not sure about the name}
Creating swap file with Swapper needs a lot of hard work, so forget it
#set swappiness to 40 or 60 for gaming otherwise 10 - 20 is enough
