hellnoob:you dont need to make partition before this tut like for link2sd,you will create it in recovery :) so delete partition for link2sd and start with clear(like with new ) Sd card

its not necessary,to keeping ext2,because data2sd does everything instead link2sd,so data2sd is better in my opinion,

after this tutorial people are using link2sd only for deleting and uninstalling system apps, but for this activity is best Root Uninstaller

    Updated Data2SD.zip link

    Credit goes to izi501 for this!

    Thanks much for this simple tut - I kept receiving "installation aborted" errors when flashing the Data2SD file, I have since located a version of Data2SD .zip that installed successfully and made this whole process smooth as butter.

    I found it HERE from the #2 post in THIS thread.

    Thanks again for the tutorial, and helping me help my wife's constant low memory errors :-/
