just plug your phone to PC and use fastboot (follow the link sent by kanded) that will work.

monty...you can't just use fastboot! it will not work till HBOOT is updated! s-off users dont have this option.
follow my post here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1467060
to allow you access to the htc unlock, which then allows you to install cwm 5, until then...you cannot!
so please stop telling people with s-off things you cannot do!
ive said it loads of times now! you s-off users have it easy. took me ages with help to figure a workaround just to install cwm 5.

unstable

Hey,

I had done this long back with ext3 partion and then it was unstable. So thought of doing the whol procedure with ext2 and guess what...? same thing.

I followed the procedure as explained.

Installed busybox
flashed data2sdext2
everything was completed just fine

restarted my phone.. everything still loks good.. and suddenly i see 'force close' messages. I got the internal memory gain but at a cost of unstability.

phone has a huge lag time. when I press power button to start my screen it takes about 15/20 seconds to just switch my screen on.

Last time I also had a query about my sd card. I am using a Class 4 8 GB SD card.

Is it still considered as high speed (I mean; when we have class 10 in the market

)? and does the issue has anything to do with the card? or I did something wrong? I am not sure.. can anybody help?

Only for this action (data2sd) i get class 10, 16 gb sd card and get it today...

So, must i format all of the sd card as ext2 or i must format ext2 how much gb i want use as internal memory?

If i format only the capacity how much i wanna use as internal memory, can i use other 14 gb as sd card memory? or must i format other 14 gb with another format?

When connection your SD via PC in recovery, goto mountain and storage, mount USB. It will read what state your phone is in

the only data2sd are listed up on boards or my website if you can't fined em.
it won't work if you have manually updated it yourself...in theory u shouldn't need to update busybox yourself..

Here is not rigt or not i am not sure but i have to say that (i know bigbearevo track this problem but may be anyone can help me also) everything ok with bigbearevo's perfect helpling for me for data2sd but i cant use Turkish language on my phone inspite of i choose Turkish (Turkey) from my salsa's language settings...

1. make sure your sdcard has been partitioned in ext2

Whats the actual layout?
partition 1 vfat for /sdcard
partition 2 ext3 for /data

partition 1 vfat for /sdcard
partition 2 ext3 for /data

partitions need to be created in minitool partition wizard.

ext3 partition at max of 1.5gb no more as it becomes unstable.
set ext3 as primary then apply actions.
rest of sd should be untouched by the program...if you have formatted it then you have done it wrong. but it should be fat32.

have u managed to update your hboot?

Yes hboot is unlocked,
run root.zip (very dodgy)
flash CMW recovery
installed "thnig" rom, whats the most stable/popular rom?
setup the sdcard as outlined above using fdisk on linux
ran the htc-data2sd-ext3.zip
and it all works

I have 400+mb for internal storage
and 1400+mb for /sdcard
Hopefully, unlike the stock slasa rom, gtalk wont keep failing

Is it ext2 or 3? Should I use EXT4??? Why does the post says ext2 while the zip says ext3!!!

the scripts are not designed to be used with ext4 yet...we have no kernel to enable that.
the zip was never updated...the newer version is ext3 set and adds busybox as normal
