Question [Q] Planning to change my SD Card.

Hello!
I'm planning to change my Xperia X8's SD Card.
I'm using Racht's custom rom, 2.2.1 CM Floyo v0.20, also found in XDA forums.
Of course, this offers the use of apps2SD.
Would it be ok if I just copy-paste the contents of my old SD Card to my new one?
Would I still be able to use (without any problems) the apps I transferred to my SD card from the phone storage?

In other words, will all my files (apps2SD transferred files also) in the old SD card still work if I just copy-paste them to the new SD Card?

Very sorry if my explanation is complicated. :P

Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply. :P

I haven't really changed it yet due to my busy schedule. Hopefully, I would be able to find time.

I'll keep you updated!

As long as you did not partition the sd card with extended file system or any other fs that only linux can detect, there should not be a problem.

If you have partitioned your old SD card with ext3 partition you can use any Linux live CD to simply copy/paste to your new card

is mandatory to have two partitions with the same floyo0, 25. a standard card does not work like a normal android 2.2. roms or they also use the second partition as root and do the first time and we have to install link2sd to transfer apps to the memory card.
