Default App2SD with ext2,3,4 support xRecovery installation

Download here - app2sd.ext4(modified 3.1.11)

Or if you want both, apps and dalvik-cache on SD - download here - app2sd.dc2sd.ext4

First of all make backup in xRecovery

Install app2sd through xRecovery - install custom zip

ext2 or ext3 or ext4 partition on SDcard needed

After app2sd installed, donīt turn the phone on without SD card with installed apps inserted, until it is really necessary

First boot after installation takes longer, depending on the amount of installed apps

If you make backup with xRecovery after installation -
- your personal data and setting of your apps will be backed up
- installed apps will no longer be backed up, but still remaining in the ext partition on SD card

If some app wonīt work correctly, please reinstall the app from Market or from the file browser (rootexplorer) - you can find your apps in /system/sd/app directory

In rootexplorer, /data/app - shows used and remaining space, added together it should be size of your ext partition.

Works well with my previous ext2 partition.
I already had app2sd working, and it still works this way.

I'm now trying a new sdcard. I formatted an ext4 partition in ubuntu, but the phone enters into an eternal loop. Don't know why, but it seams that it is not recognizing the partition.

Any Ideas?

Regards
