Thanks to all the op's and members that make this thread so great... my question is... is there a link or step by step or a log of the "sdparted -i" and "SDparter.apk" processes with the answers and entries for the ssm partitions... following the prompts allows for mistakes and bad entries thanks again to everyone
READ ALL OF THIS FIRST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There may be an easier way but I KNOW THIS WAY WORKS ! :-D
Save all data on your sd card to your computer because your card is gonna get wiped .
Install CTMod . After install , go in to CWM . Go to advanced and clear the Dalvik cache then
reboot in to recovery and do a factory wipe then REBOOT .
Go back in to CWM , go to advanced and partition your card . 1024 mb then 0 swap . Reboot
After that
Put your phone in CWM mode , plug it in to computer .
You are gonna need to have Kouma's Odin Packer .
Unzip it and place in a folder on your desktop . It contains a GingerBread folder inside it .
You will then need to open the Gingerbread folder from the folder you just unzipped .
Do not click on anything in the folder
Just move your mouse pointer to an open area in the Gingerbread folder window .
Hold the down the SHIFT key on your keyboard and RIGHT CLICK YOUR MOUSE .
A menu will appear , select OPEN COMMAND WINDOW HERE . A command widow will appear , type adb shell and hit ENTER
a # sign will appear Type sdparted -i then hit ENTER
You should now be in the phone ,ready to wipe and partition your card .
You will then go through the motions of wiping your sd card . Just follow the prompts and wipe the card .
You will then be asked to choose a size for your new partitions . Enter mb's when asked for sizes 2 gigs =2048mb 1 gig = 1024mb
( if you have a large card , choose 2048 for the first two partition sizes that it will ask for )
( if you have a smaller card , use a lesser size . 1024 or 512 ).
When it is done performing the actions, copy and paste the commands below to the ADB window and hit ENTER .
MAKE SURE TO LET THE ACTIONS COMPLETE BEFORE ENTERING A NEW COMMAND . YOU WILL SEE THE #
SIGN WHEN IT COMPLETES EACH COMMAND .
After reboot , go back in to CWM , go in to ADVANCED and CLEAR THE DALVIK CACHE .
You're DONE !!! You should now be able to go in to the menu/settings/Storage .... Under available space, you should have over 150mb free.
Here are Kouma's directions . NOTE ! Do not select anything for EXT PARTITION TYPE or FAT PARTITION SIZE . Just hit ENTER .
ONLY PARTITION SWAP AND EXT .
1) Boot into Recovery
2) ADB shell into the phone
3) Run "sdparted -i"
4) Pick a size for a swap partition (CWM doesn't let you make them big)
5) Pick a size for your EXT partition. Let the fat partiton have the rest.
6) When sdparted completes, manually convert the swap partion to ext4 by performing the following:
Code:
mkfs.ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
e2fsck -p /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
tune2fs -c0 -i0 -j /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
e2fsck -fpDC0 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
Hope this all helps but the easier is the way to go!!!
