Credit goes to whoever made Apps2SD. This app will partition your SD card and it works on Lollipop 5.1.1 (tested on gamerrom 6 and resurrection remix) so let's get statrted.

1. Download apps2sd from the play store there is a free version and paid version.

2. Open up apps2sd and grant root access. Scroll down and you'll see partition tool. Open that up.

3. Before partitioning plz backup your SD card because partitioning erases all of your SD card. On the part where it says first partition tool, select ext4 and type in how much you want to partition your SD card. Above the first partition, it. Sets how much space you will have left based on how much you chose for your first partition. Make sure above the first partition it Says fat32.

4. Below first partition, you will see a second partition for swap size. Set your swap partition.



5. After you're done look below the second partition that says either create or format. Make sure it says create. Then click the blue box that says yes.

6. Apps2sd will say while formatting you need to reboot your phone. Click okay and your phone will reboot.

7. After you reboot open up apps2sd and click on link apps to sd it should ask what partition to create Mount script. Select ext4 and if you have int.d support click that you have it. The phone will reboot again.

8. Then click apps2sd and link apps and start liking your apps. Any trouble or anything just post it in the comments. Also comment if this worked for you.
