no, you can't
think to the EXT partition like the data.img
the phone will see it as it's internal storage.
hmmm... partition magic didn't have ext4... deng... i'll try using ext3 and look like its booting fine... still testing the phone... will give more feedback...

TESTERS NEEDED
Before uploading the TMOUS version I needs to check that it works fine at least for the no "data2sd" thing. Unfortunately having a 512LEO I cannot test my self.
So please, anyone has a 1024 LEO and want to be a betatester send me a PM. I will send the link to the first 10 people. You will have to flash it and let me know if it works.
Be advised: since this is a beta test request, could happen also that you have to reflash back a supposed working version after a couple of hours.. so I need people that will not give up after a one not working flash.
I will write in this threa again when 10 people are reached and no more requests accepted.
All the testers will be thanked in the OP.
if it works, please report.
use gparted live cd to partition in ext4
follow the guide linked in the OP
maybe you can download Ubuntu live CD and boot it from Visual Box to format ext4, i use it for my sd card.
yup... i got linux running on my other machine... just being lazy... hehehe
but confirming that ext3 is working with the build without problem. i'm dumping some other program in right now... will give more review...
You wrote : "Second partition must be logica EXT4. Suggested maximum 1gb. Will be used from the system as "internal storage". You will not be able to access to it."
require a previous version of the kernel Mdj partition ext and fat primary, this version kernel regure logical ?
thanks I try it
una curiosità è obbligatorio creare partizione in ext4
oppure basta mettere la cartalle data2sd?
Thank you Raf.Gr8 job.
I run V2.0 with the reported bugs from others but i managed it yesterday.
So any recommendation to keep any file or image from V2.0 to be used in V2.1 to keep data and app.
Regards
the 2.1 build wont boot when i change the font to the Original type. Any ideas?

Hi I have a ext4 partitio that was running under revolution 2.3, how can I empty it so that I can flash a clean flash of your rom?
Thanks
hmmm... partition magic didn't have ext4... deng... i'll try using ext3 and look like its booting fine... still testing the phone... will give more feedback...
auto apn still not working here... no problem with me... i still prefer manual input.... kind of smoother then the last version... going to test the gps later... sound ok ringtone ok wallpaper ok app2sd ok superuser ok rooted yes
until later.... oh ext3 is also working.
Question about this rom could anyone check if taking a picture and going to preview screen, does the upload button if you press it force close the camera?

Used some ideas and code bits from Dandiest's init script.
You can create a config.txt file on the root of your sdcard to configure some things at boot.
Actually you can configure the following options
gps_zone=[your country]
check http://www.pool.ntp.org/zone/@ for country codes (example: it for italy, us for usa.. and so on...)
sd_boost
sd_boost=0 -> sd bost not active (default)
sd_boost=1 -> sd boost active
* SD Boost deactivate journal on your ext partition. This gives you more performance but if you not shut off your phone properly or you pull out the battery while running you can have data loss or data corruption. If you activate sd boost, then you want to go back to norma sd usage, just change the config.txt back to sd_boost=0 and journal will be recreated on next boot *
ppp_mode=[1 or 0]
1 to enable PPP
0 to enable RMNET.
Default is 0
RMNET is more stable and less battery hungry, but in some countries/carries PPP can work better.
old_light_driver=[1 or 0]
0 to use the new light driver (working notification leds, button backlight control)
1 to use the old light driver (no notifications leds, buttons will go off after 10 seconds)
default is 0
auto_btn_backlight=[1 or 0]
1 to have the buttons backlight going off/on with the screen
0 to have the buttons backlight going off after 10 seconds from when the last button is pressed
default is 1
this work only if old_light_driver=0
wifi_mac_change=[1 or 0]
1 tells the system that you will need to change the wifi mac address to a custom one
0 tells the system that you will use the wifi mac address based on device hardware
custom_wifi_mac=yy:yy:yy:yy:yy:yy
here you have to write the wifi mac address you want.
This is needed, and will work, only if you specify wifi_mac_change=1
If you not write any mac address here, the default 00:11:22:33:44:55 will be used
Just an example on how a file could look:
Code:gps_zone=it ppp_mode=0 old_light_driver=0 auto_btn_backlight=1
The init script will also create an init.log file on your sd card at every boot. This will help you and me with debugging if something not works fine. If you have issues please always post your init.log file when reporting your problem.
You can refer to my kernel thread for updates, changelog, and comments

4.X is bigger then 2.X so you need at least a 390mb system partition. If you flashed the recovery with 360mb modded file, you have to reflash it again, or you will have issues at boot!!!
I'm putting a lot of time in this, nights without sleeping, downloading, flashing, reflashing..So, if you like my work and appreciate it, and you want to buy me a coffe or a beer for chilling out, I will appreciate it you can do this here otherwise a click on the "thanks" button is still a good idea
Instructions:
q) My phone sometimes freeze and I have to reboot.
