Default Clockwork Question

So I'm thinking of finally installing CWR on my phone but my question is - how do I partition my SD card for ROM's that use Apps2SD/Data2SD? Also, I see that different ROM's use different size CWR's, how do I change that? Probably noob questions.

haven't done it myself, but to partition read the FAQ about partition in hyperdroid:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918899

for the different roms with different CWM, simply usb flash -> flash required CWM and you are ready to go.

cheers.

Its actually really simple, it just looks confusing. CWM has 3 partition sizes for your phone memory, 150 250 and 400. These are the sizes your ROM can be with the respective types of CWM. I use 250. Now to partition your sd card its extremely simple. (NOTE: This is for windows only) Download Minitool partition wizard, load it up with your sdcard connected to your computer, now you should see the sdcard will be one partition formatted as FAT32. Now, if you right click on that and select move/resize then drag it to how big you want your A2SD partition to be. (THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT Drag it from the right so that the grey box is on the right of the FAT32 section. Dont make it larger than 1024 MB, however mine is 512MB and it is more than enough) Right, so now right click on the unallocated part of your sdcard and select create. Make it primary, not logical. The file type should be either EXT2,3 or 4. (I use 3 as it seems to be the most compatible) and there you go, done
