Hi, my Captivate internal memory is broken and there's probably no solution to repair it. I dealt with it. I partitioned a Class 10 32 GB micro SD card with a 4 GB ext4 partition and a Swap partition and then installed CM9.1. I didn't need to configure anything (except I had to flash a EMMC reverse script) and there were 4 GB of available "internal storage" free space in Settings/Storage. However I wanted to upgrade to CM10 (which only worked with Semaphore kernel), but there is now only 422 MB of available space. CM10 doesn't use sd-ext partitions anymore? Is there any script to move apps to ext4 partition in Jelly Bean?

Hello.
I am using HTC Desire (hero) rooted with latest cyanogen mod.
i`m running out of internal memory, i already have app2sd installed but and moved everything to sd.
i was wondering if there is any trick that lets say, i could make a small partition on my sd card, format that partition with EXT filesystem and that this partition will be added to my internal memory?

I've brought my sdcard from my old HTC Magic. There (using cyanogenmod) it was partitioned to have swap, ext4 space for apps2sd and storage space as vfat. I did not repartitioned the card since I started using my Defy but it ran out of space already.
The question is - do I need swap and apps space or shall I repartition my card to have only storage space for the defy? I'm using Jboogies rom, if that matters.
You do not have to partition your MicroSD card at all.
Shouldn't need apps2sd or space in sd card for applications. Defy has over 1g available rom space out of factory.

You can use titanium back up to move apps to you're sd card our use link2sd, which requires you put a ext partition on your sd.

be careful using link2sd on GB based roms.
There are issues with the auxiliary SD ext partition not being mounted in time to be cached when the GB slurps the available applications.

I used the MiniTool Partition Wizard H.E. to partition my sd card. My sd card is 4GB, I resized it into 2965MB so my internal memory free space is 1GB. When I flashed ICS (4.0.3) from kabalban I download 5 apps (not games) and it ate all of my free space in my phone (internal memory 198MB, free space 21MB -_-)
Please help thank you!

I have an ext3 of 512MB and it works just fine, I don't tried installing applications on the ICS ROM but it recognized those I installed on the CM 7.1.5...
Oh, and I used Gparted, you can also try using S2E to move the applications, its on the market ...

How big is your ext3 partition? As I recall, it will only work if it is less than 1Gb. Anything more is excessive, unnecessary, and non-functional

On a 16GB SD card I have a 2 GB EXT3 partition and it works just fine.
I used GPartEd to partition the card.
So I think he should try GPartEd, make sure the EXT3 partition is the 2nd one and if there are still problems try a different SD card.
You were in the same situation I was in when I had the milestone. Here is the answer.
Unlike phones like the HTC Desire the milestone does not support a2ext. Therefore. Your internal storage will always be very low. However apps that are big will automatically be moved into the ext partition so you don't actually have to worry about running out of space

There are flashable script which make the Milestone display internal memory of up to 1GB - but they are not compatible with CM
Creating an ext partition is much easier. I've got a ~520MB ext part. on HO!NO! mod an for me it is fine

Is there any script for increasing internal memory supporting FAT32 partition? cause when I rooted the phone I partitioned the 8 gb sd card with 2gb FAT32. If not, can I convert FAT32 into ext partition? How?
Use link2sd for fat or fat32. And you can convert this partition to ext by using easyus partition manager.
Hit thanks if I helped you.

Found the solution. Partitioned using the cwm recovery. Now I have 5.6 gb fat and 2057 mb as ext.
