Thanks x 1000! No, seriously =D

A few questions, though. Do you move the files, or copy and paste them? And you move all files from "Device", or just "sdcard0"? Also, when you download new things (apps and whatnot), if you have flashed this, do those save automatically to your sd card, or do you have to repeat the process? Once again, you're amazing for creating this =D

My phone doesn't have extsdsgrd and...oh wait. That's a typo, isn't it? lol I just noticed how close those letters are to each other =P

To clarify...we flash this, move all files from sdcard0 to extsdcard, and we're good to go. Or do we move files first, then flash?

EDIT: I just moved all files (copy and pasted into extsdcard, then removed them from sdcard0) and flashed. I'm downloading a game right now to see which memory goes down, but I also tried opening up a game I had before flashing, and it says "Downloading assets..........downloading failed because the resources could not be found." EDIT 2: Game just finished downloading. It was the internal memory that went down (the internal memory still being a total of 1.94 GB). How should I go about unflashing it and trying again (this time with flashing first, I guess).
EDIT 3: This screwed up my 3G again. Unless people are getting my texts even though it says failed, but I doubt it because I can't access the web without wi-fi.
EDIT 4: Got the data working again by moving all the folders I removed from sdcard0 back into sdcard0 (extsdcard still also has them).

No. I got the data working again, but the memory wasn't changed. I flashed it and it said "enjoy your new memory", so I know that it went through or whatever...just didn't work. Not sure how to unflash so I can try again.
 
go to system/ect/init.d delete external2 internal for some reason it wont recognise the memory card is now the main folder
 
Idk, I guess. I can always delete it and try again. I'll have to do it later, though. I'm late for class.

Actually, on second thought, I probably can do it right now. But do I copy the files to SD card, or move them completely?
 
There are two etc. folders =0

First one there is the ext2int file, second has a lot of files, but I don't see a recovery one. There's blue tooth, anther init.d, a few more folders, and a lot of files (like the vold.fstab).
 
the one with bluetooth and init.d folders, there should be a file called install-recovery.sh
if not, thats also good
just create it and put this in the file:

#!/system/bin/sh
export PATH=/sbin:/system/sbin:/system/bin:/system/xbin
/system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/run-parts /system/etc/init.d

this will enable init.d so the ext2int script will work.
note: you also need busybox installed for this to work!
 
Do I have to create the install-recovery.sh on the computer and then move it over? I try to create a file in es file Explorer, and it says operation failed.
 
well reboot so the script is called by kernel on boot
when busybox is installed correctly, it exec every script in that init.d folder including the swap script
 
I installed busybox, I re removed everything from sdcard0, put the removed file in the spot you told me to, made a copy of the ext2int and put it in the etc folder with all the file, and reflashed ext2int...still doesnt work.
