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

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

hv u partitioned ur sd with 1gb ext4?
u can find some info in this thread

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).

Link2SD but low internal memory

Hello.
Why my internal memory is low (56 mb) but all my aps is linked to SD on a ext4 partition with Link2Sd ?
Where is the problem?
I cleaned and relinked everything and memory still low
Till yasterday my memory was ~110 mb. Maybe Juice defender ultimate is the problem? Is my last installed app.

I encountered this problem once and switched using "INT2EXT4+" instead, you don't have to manually move stuff with that script and I havent noticed any problem with it.
Use titanium backup to backup all your apps if you're not already using it.

ok
how to use INT2EXT4+ ?
I don't have an app like Link2SD.

Try going to data/local with a root explorer and delete .apk files in there. Link2sd sometimes makes a copy when linking apps and they end up in there, just taking up internal space.

The tutorial is in the link. It makes the phone have more "internal" storage (using the space from the SD card) so all you gotto do is to install apps and they will work as they usually do. You have to partition your SD-card, just search "partition SD card xda" on google and ull find a tutorial for that.

yeah because some ROM already have script sdext u must remove it before using amarulz script..
use rootexplorer go to system>etc>init.d

When you link apps to sd-ext, the data from all those applications still stay on internal memory. Those consumes a lot of space. Better try moving movable applications to sd card.

Even I also faced the same problem on an earlier ROM. Didn't find a solution though.

[Q] CM7 + 2ndboot + Swapper2

Hello guys, I just installed the new CM7 to test 2ndboot. I enabled Compcache RAM to 26% and also installed swapper2 but when I turn it on it says "can't start '/dev/block/mmcblk0p3': No such file or directory".
Can someone help me please?

Did you create a swap paritition on your SD card?

I disabled compcache and made third partition on my SD-card. Filesystem is Linux Swap. In Swapper2 i choose Settings - Advanced Preferences - Use swap partition. Swap partition - /dev/block/mmcblk0p3. It works for me.
Open your terminal and type "free" for testing:

Check the settings of Swapper2 - if you don't have a swap partition, make sure that it's not trying to use it. You should be able to have it use the FAT or ext partition.

It looks like you are still trying to use a swap partition. Go to Settings -> Advanced Preferences, and make sure the "Use Swap Partition" is unchecked. The go to Swap -> Create, to create the new swap file, and then hit the ON button.

Right, I unchecked this option and now I can see the file inside my SD. I rebooted the phone, how can I confirm that it's working?

Open Terminal, type in 'free' (without quotes), and if there are numbers in the Swap line other than zeroes, its working!

My brother why are you confused first you are saying that you want to increase your internal memory then you are talking about swapping both these things are different in swapping you increasing your ram by utilising your sd card and it is very dangerous for your sd card my one 16 gb card died in this process if you want to increase internal memory go for cromod or link 2 sd script i think i helped you
