I know fat32 sucks arse -_-
well i'm on Jaggy Rom so my question is that if I format my main SDCard partition to ext4 or ex-fat will it still mount it so that I can download torrents etc...?
Is there any kernal that supports it or any ROM ??

Hi !
I just installed the Lag Fix in my Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000B and looks like it is fine.
As far I understand, the lag fix patch formats the internal SD as ext4 to have more stability and speedy.
So I am wondering if the external SD card would have similar benefits if I format it as ext4 too.
I don't have a spare external SD to check it my myself, so if anyone could provide any information, would be nice.

Hi
I have an external sd card and i want to have a second partition in ext4, to put somme date on it (larges files)
i read and test since 15 days and what i can said is
you need to have a first partition (primary in fat32 on the sd card)
the second partition in ext4 is not seen by android os !!! I mean, there is no way to mount automaically these partition at boot and use it.
I have found a old lagfix from mimocan which mount external ext4 , but it is to store applications as we do in sdcard. I do believe we can use for data but it is old now we have kernel and rom with ext4 in native mode and i don't find how use ext4 on external card for data instead of program (with link2sd for exemple)
link2sd or app2sd only works with internal sd card !
regards
can anyone tell me how to use memory hack?? m currently using cyanogenmod 7.2 so can anyone give me link ?? also m using 8 gb sd card without any partitioms.
partition sdcard using cwm recovery into a 1024MB ext4 partition.
Download and run Link2SD and set the ext4 partition as internal memory.
how to set the ext4 partition as internal memory??when i open link2sd i get message to set 2nd partition....i set first partition to 1024mb..
Go to recovery/advance and partion your sd card (1024 mb is recommended), now set swap value as 128mb.... when all done go to mount section and mount data, sd card, sd-ext and system.... now mount usb stortage and connect your phone to computer and copy Ungaze Script file.
:: Reboot ::
Thats it ...
isnt swap walue 0 better

Hey i can understand your exitement. But memory hack has a drawback. Once you install memory hack on any rom,all your apps data(only data not apps)gets erased,and you cant restote that data even by titanium backup.

I mean, if I formatted my microSD to ext4, will it recognize by my phone ??
I want to format my microSD to ext4 for performance. My kernel (BAM Custom Kernel #14) supports ext4..
Hi guys!
I have installed CM10 Alpha4 on my i9003. The question I have is this:
Can I reformat the internal memory to EXT4 using Linux (gparted), or I have to use some script/CWM?
I currently have:
1. System partitions in YAFFS2 (made by the installation of CM10 Alpha4)
2. Internal memory in FAT32
3. SD in FAT32
Since I only use Linux I was thinking in using EXT4 on my phone, because I like Linux's file systems (and, of course, all its advantages)
I'm assuming the SD card will not be a problem if I reformat it using gparted.
Thanks in advance!
If you're talking about system partition, I'm afraid MTD partition doesn't support EXT4.
If you're talking about internal memory(which we can store data inside), I think can, found some article about this but you need to use some apps though.
EDIT: it seems like our phone won't mount EXT4 partitioned sdcard, so you will need to use some apps like app2sd to do the trick to actually store data in ext4 partition.
Oh, what a shame... but, hey! That was very helpful and I learned a lot. Thank you! :good:
EDIT: ops, I read it before you edited it. Yeah, I thought we were not talking about the same partition. It's the internal memory.
hi developers!!! i am using lin2sd app because of my low internal memory but my problem is that my phone doesn't support ext2 file system instead
fat32. Because of this i can't use the full features of link2sd in linking internal data. Is there a possible way to change the fat32 support to ext2 support partition in my phone?..
thanks for the kindhearted who are willing to help me

You can use MINIPARTITION TOOL (Windows app) to add partitions or/and change the format of your SDcard to ext2, ext3, ext4 etc.
