Need help guys!
Today i flashed cm7.1 on my N1
(B4 i was using cm6 rc1 with DT a2sd)
Cm7.1 works great but i need a2sd for more space
After i flash DT a2sd beta 4 , i entered into boot loop
My phone wont boot
Whats the problem?? do i need to wipe sd-ext also
(As it may contain previous rom's app data?)
Thanks in advance
Please help!
wipe everything including sd ext or use nandroid backup if any( i usually make backup before flashing dta2sd ).if ur using cm 7.1 u can try S2E app available in market which does the pretty same job but its with gui so its easy to operate

Thanks for the reply!! m i right tht wiping sd ext wont format files on sd card?(fat i mean)
I still get into boot loop after wiping sd-ext b4 installing DT a2sd
is there anything to do with the kernal
I would try doing a full wipe (including system) then flash everything a new. ROM, gapps then DT. If you don't want to lose your app data just backup with titanium backup.

Which recovery are you using? - your ext may be messed up...

If u use permanent cwm ur sd-ext partition wil b backed while taking a nandroid backup.
For link2sd make ext3 partition on ur sd card. I hope u kno hw to make partitions on sd card. If nt search on google.

Actually, there are many opinions about Ext partitions and which one is the best.
I'd personally suggest you read more about them yourself (ext2, ext3, ext4).
Ok.
I make sd-ext3 using cwm, but when I make backup the cwm can't find sd-ext ??
Why ??
are there any way that allow me to backup my sd-ext, and then restore if anything happened ?

Its happened to me before.. Even i try flash another Cust. ROM Just stays the same...
Finally i solve it with odin. Flash firmware and it will fix it..
Sent from my GT-S5830
to get more internal memory, do full wipe, them install rom, once installed, flash the file attached then wipe sd-ext reboot and it should be right to go
p.s for every 100mb free internal memory you get 500mb "internal memory"
Nothing different..i have do wipe factory data + wipe cache + wipe dalvik..then flash the ACE III rom + attachment..still same..178 memory internal..
did you wipe sd-ext after installing int2sd?
as i know..flash a new rom, its already format system, data, cache, sd-ext..
am i right??

Here's the problem:
It seems that clockworkmod v 5.0.2.8 that i used isnt for working for me cause i cant choose ext format when partioning my sdcard (i cant download the latest CWM TOUCH 5.2.0.8 ext link is dead)maybe this is the problem not choosing a ext format for my sdcard.
Can someone pls give a working link??
And is it safe if i remove the partion without sdreader(removing the partition with galaxy mini connected to the computer)???
Please Help me:laugh:
Arigatou:laugh:

Can I remove the 2nd partition with my phone connected to PC???

i have a partition but im not using it so i decided to remove partition with home partition wizard provided by yagya's tut.
just mount your sdcard with your mobile
copy all the data to PC
then boot in recovery
then go to mount and storage
from there format sdcard
and you will have single partition
then mount sdcard again and copy your data back
its very simple
Ok I will try this on Friday cause I'm busy)
I'm always having a problem when I install s2e do you know why???

i made a partition to my 8GB sd-card and now its 4 GB can i undo it and restore my data ???? plz help
Plug the sdcard to your system and use the "Gparted" or "Mini partition tool".. Make sure you backup the sdcard data first..

thanks but that's the problem i cant find my data. when i made the partition the size of sd-card became 4GB and the data was gone !!!! i installed mini tool partition but i didn't know how to delet partition
You may be able to shrink the partition using the partition wizard. I've been lucky, and also unlucky. If you try it, don't shrink the partition below the amount of data u already have on it. For example, if you have 150 megs of data, shrink the partition down to 200 megs. Still make a back up just in case. Good luck.

"right click" on the correct Device and then click on DELETE!... then you must create a new partition xD

Plug out your SDCard and connect it to your PC and now Format it (Not Quick Format) and then the partition will be gone and you have to make a new partition!!!
