Default [Q] Cyanogenmod 7.2 simple2ext or darktremor help

Hey Guys i just installed Cyanogenmod 7.2 on my Gio today. Its amazing and very stable. I first flashed cwm recovery then the rom, then gapps and then the patchv4 afterwards.

Since i cant post in the developers section due to less amount of posts, can anyone tell me what is a2sdtremor and simple2ext about? All i need is something that i can move anything to the sd card and keep more ram and internal memory free, should i install a2sdtremor or simple2ext from the cyanogenmod 7.2 thread? can anyone give me a detailed guide to install it and can i still make ext2 partition and install a2sdtremor or simpleext on this rom or i have to flash the rom again? A Detailed answer about making the partition and installing a2sd tremor or s2ext whichever is better will be appreciated.

Those are scripts that can make a ext4 partition on your sd card, look like internal memory. I recommend simple2ext

It can be buggy if you partition the SD Card from recovery, you need a card reader for this job, btw don't even think to partition when the SD Card is mounted on PC.

Just press the "Thanks" button if i helped you

go for s2e , it was especially developped for Cyanogenmod, so if you use CM 7 (7.1 or 7.2 --> s2e) if you want to use other roms than go for a2sd
