hey guys i am new i really want to know if some one can fix r there's way to fix problem i.e
in creeds rom v2 dalvik-cache move to sd dont work i m stuck on boot loop for hours n i need a solution as in v1.7.2 i had 125 apps now i cant even install 50 of them....plz help.
maybe there's no ext4 partition?
no coz in v1.7.2 i made partition and of 512mb and moved dalvik-cache to sd and 64mb swap but a2sd is working well in v2 jus the move to sd function is not working as described by mr.creedo himself in the thread...n m still using v1.7.2 with sd-ext...
i think its coz of either rom or the kernel coz v2 is based on cmptly new firmware but in v.1.7.2 it is giving no such problem.
try link2sd...
Dalvik cache to sd is not working for now.Even i tried to do so but it din't work and i had to reflash. May be creed will come up with a solution
i have been studying android in deep and i think these steps might help via link2sd
and FAT2 partition

ya that is ungaze script...already implemented in cm7.2 rc5.5 by asad007
I haven't tried partition tool...I partitioned via cwm...
and your secondary partition should be ext2/3, not fat32...
I partitioned ext 4 via windows. Putted ungaze script. Working . Same benchmark as without script. I am on rc 5,5

Het guys please becarefull about the partition thing..
Because its very risky and you better have backup of your sdcard ane save that backups at your PC or notebook..
Some of my friends has been loosing all of his data because of it.
When u first time partitioning sd card, it will remove all your sd card stuff ofcourse. Just put it on desktop and move back when partition is done.

Enter Recovery Mode by holding POWER + HOME;
With the Volume Down key (-) and High Volume (+) and navigate to the HOME key Select "advanced";
Select "partition SD Card"
In the next window you should choose the partition size.
If you have a 2GB card to advise you put 512mb 1024mb,
If you have a card with 4GB or 8GB advise putting 2048mb.
And finally select the size of the swap partition for extra memory.
If you have an urge to put 2gb card 128mb,
If you have a card with 4GB or 8GB advise putting 256mb.
enter the Market and install the program Links2SD
to open the program you should choose ext3 and press ok> then superuser permission> and after that restart your phone.
Now press the Options button to display the sub-menu of the program
Made this to take and check the settings, and automatically link-site check in'' automatically''.
Now press the Options button to display the sub-menu of the program.
Made this to take and check the settings, and automatically link-site check in'' automatically''.
Return to initial screen of the program, press the Options button to display the sub-menu and then click multiple selection, press the shutter button and select options select all, press again press the options button and click Actions, and click Create link. Press OK to start, and all your applications ready to go to memory that was created ext3.
Now we will install and configure the Swapper. Lower application, install the application by the Market, after check the Active on Boot Swap on Swap File Position sure "EXT Partition SD Card" in "Swap File Size" set a value as the size of the partition created in ext, I suggest that is a partition of 1024 put 250 if a partition of 2048 put 512 of superuser permissions and restart the phone.

I wouldn't recommend swapper...
long story short, it'll start affecting performance...and do more bad than good...
swap partition is basically virtual ram...but the problem with this is, our phones ram is fast, while even the best of sd cards can't match that...
so you may get better performance initially, but soon you'll regret having a swap partition...

Backup sdcard on pc. Goto recovery(yannous recovery recommended),advanced,create partition,select ext4(I guess u need to boot sense, it will work fine). Sdcard will be formatted and partitions will be created. Even though you would have selected ext4 in computer sdcard will be read as ext3.
Hope this helps.

You might be able to use any of the gazillion partitioning tools available for Windows. Minitool, Easeus Partition Manager, and all the likes give you the options of converting the partitions (directly) to ext4, too. But, since ext partitions are evolved around Linux, Gparted, and its likes, could handle the Partitioning and converting (directly) job better.
I just created a 2nd partition on my 8GB SD card so that i could move apps to it using link2sd...but when i open link2sd and select the file system of my SD card's 2nd partition (ext4) i get an error:
Mount script cannot be created.
mount: No such device.
ext4 may not be supported on your device. Try FAT32 on the second partition.

Other small question : Do I really need to mount the 2nd partition if I just wanna install custom ROMs?

If you are on Stock then maybe FAT32 partition may have worked.. or even otherwise maybe it will work,.. haven't used a FAT32 sd partition since JaggyROM 2.x.x ( obviously my 1st partition is fat32 ) ... My second partition is an ext and it is advisable to have an ext partition cause there are many scripts like int2ext , s2e, etc which work well with an ext partition...
A partition is Not necessary to made in order for other ROMs to work.. They will work just as well without a partition .. only thing is your internal memory will remain to be 150 mb.. Which is the memory allocated in our phone's nand..
NOTE: Sense 4.0a is the only ROM that you necessarily need to have an SD-EXT Partition of at least 1 GB. Otherwise it won't boot.
thanks for helping me..

If anyone still have the above issue then just change ur sdcard partition type to ext3. Reboot mobile. Better to use link2sd for this.

do it through mini partition tool..delete the created partition..now right click on the 1st partition..slect extend..n drag the cursor till end...n click apply...done
Use Other Kernel
The reason for your second partition is not recognized is you may be at Stock Rom and Stock kernel....
Stock kernel do not support ext partitions...
Use ateeq kernel or cranium kernel for ext4 partition support....
Also use Mounts2sd instead of link2sd...!!!!
I used mounts2sd after I created sd card partition(ext3) but this app said partition not mounted; but link2sd recognised n created scripts.

Assuming you have the right kernel, install the startup script and change the driver in mounts2sd settings to ext3.

Use EXt2FS search in google you will get it..
Install it in your windows.. reboot your pc.. Then connect your card.. You will get the second partiton to see plus you can copy paste as well..

For this you don't need s-off (which anyway you can't do). Just use recovery (you already have that) and create partition. If you are using cwm, in advanced menu there is option 'repartition sd card', just follow the steps, and remember this will erase all your info from the sd, so it's better to back that up. Also you can create partition using pc with "mini tool partition wizard" google it. Another thing don't make ext partition bigger than 2GB and don't create swap partition.
That's it. Have fun
Edit: @Saumitra Yadav- damn you are fast , but what you explayned is........ why create another partition, sd card is already fat partitioned? (Maybe I'm wrong but I think link2sd also works with ext)
Edit2: Yes it needs second partition which can be fat32, but it also can be ext, so just make ext

first time in your post, I saw op's cm10, and forgot that possibility that actually stock rom doesn't support ext.
There was very long time ago when my phone haded stock rom.
already tried creating it...get an error saying that mount script cannot be created.
link2sd faq quote :
Q. I get "Mount script cannot be created. cannot create /system/etc/install-recovery.sh: not enough memory" error.
Some HTC devices are "NAND locked". On "NAND locked" (or "S-ON") devices the /system partition is write-protected by the bootloader and thus cannot be modified even if you have root privileges.
In order to use Link2SD you need to do "S-OFF" to disable this NAND lock. (a.k.a. "NAND unlock" or "unlocking the bootloader")

if you are using htc sense build 9 then no need of any memory increasing script..
for partition:
use any partition wizard..
connect mmc using card reader and open the software on pc
see the drive of your card.
select the that drive and delete it..
now after delete click on that.
create new partition with ext4 driver
format it.
remaining one click on create partition fat32 and format.
