Apps2Sd/Sdsplit on second micro sdhc

I have done apps2sd using sdsplit and can also see the contents of my Fat32 & ext2 partitions on the sd card.
I bought a 4Gb microSD card and I was wondering how I would go about transferring all of my apps to the new sd card. Would simply making the 2 partitions and copying all the data from the ext2 partition (app, app-private, dalvik-cache, data) work?

[Q]how to Format EXT partition itself?

hi everyone,
I want to format my ext partition but i can't find a way to do that and i don't want to repartition or format my whole sd card just ext3 part, is there anyway to do this?
thanks...
gparted should do it for you.
If preferably wanting to do in windows, get minitool partition wizard home edition, you should see two seperate partitions (ext3 and fat32 I'm guessing is your set up)
Remeber though, most likely using the ext3 with your build means it contains all your apps etc, so use titanium backup or something to keep them.

[Q] Migrate to a bigger Sd card for Android on NAND and ext3 partition

I have android on my Hd2 and the sd card is partioned with a fat32 and an ext3 partion...
I now want to buy a bigger sd card, but how do I migrate the SD partition?
I mean I can create an ext3 partition on the new sd card, move the data from the old fat32 to the new fat32 partition, but what about the ext3 partition whch is not visible in Windows?
thanks
you'll need to find a proper partition manager. I think partition magic could work

I do have a partition manager for windows, but i thought this would only create partitions and not copy them...
I found this link:

a cwm restore won't work ??

[Q] Rom recognized sd partition as internal memory

Hello everyone! I installed the Srom 2.2.1 V3 earlier. Everything is working very good and stable. But i noticed a problem. When i was on 2.1, i installed link2sd to have my apps on the sd. So i partitioned my sd card. When i installed the new rom today, i didn't do anything to the sd card, and when i started to install applications i saw that they were going to the ext2 partition, despite the fact that they were marked as installed on phone memory. Then i tried the option "move to sd" (through application manager) and the apps moved to another location of the sd card. So what can i do to use my phone memory? (which has 180MB free space!)
Thank you very much in advance!
delete and format the ext partition in SDcard
If i backup the apps that are installed there using titanium, and then after formatting the sd i restore them, will they be installed on the internal memory, or will there be any problems?
1st you need to use minitool partition checking is it your SDcard creat a ext2 partition. if you just format the sdcard it doesn't mean delete your ext2 partition. so that after you update to 2.2 ROM, is still will recognized ext2 partition as your system storage
P/S sorry my bad English.
I've just deleted the partition and formatted the whole sd card. Then i wiped cache and did a factory reset because i had some install issues. So ext2+android 2.2 don't get along well!!! Thank you for your interest and replies

Ext3 partition

Hi team,
Just wanted to know why should we create Ext3 partition? Will this solve the low memory problem in Blade?
What would be the recommended partition size and how to partition it? Do forgive me if this is a repeat question please point me to right thread.

Creating ext partition on memory card will move the apps from phone memory to ext partition on memory card thereby freeing up phone memory. So it solves low memory problems due to insufficient storage.
Use clockworkmod recovery to partition memory card. Depending on ur sdcard size and ur needs the ext an be 256 or 512MB with 0MB swap. After partitioning, flash the darktremor apps2sd script from custom recovery to use the sdcard for applications.
