SD card format question - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to format my SD card and install a ROM after a full wipe. What files do I need to have on the SD card when I do the install? Do I just need the ROM that I'm going to install?

The rom and any addons you're flashing, like a different kernel, wifi calling, low mic fix, etc.

No need. You can transfer your backup to your new sdcard and place it in clockworkmod/backup.

[Q] low internal memory

i keep getting low internal memory message when i try to install anything, is there an easy way of increase internal memory on hd2.
data2ext,app2sd,nativesd,app2sd+,a2sd, and many more options, the list goes on, , do a lot of reading.
I have tried app2sd and link2sd. But they are not useful when your internal memory is full. I have all the apps on sd. My phone only has 151mb,50 of which is used by system apps. 100mb is not enough for installing apps. I just want to increase the internal memory so that I can install more apps.

that rom (nexushd2, in your signature) offers data on ext, , if youre getting memory errors, you either didnt create an ext partition, or chose the wrong install option.
Sorry but wat do u mean. I didn't install android on this phone, some installed it for me. So I don't know much about it partition and stuff.

Hi mate apparently there is a new update from Samsung coming in the weeks ahead and enables apps to ext sd card

Saves messing with your phone, if you can wait for firmware update.
I already have flashed that firmware.. but i am looking for a tweak to swap internal sd for ext sd ??

Hi,
Are you trying to wipe your data in order to install a new ROM?
Or are you trying to format your sd card?
They are 2 different things.

Hi,
You want to go into recovery.
Mount and storage.
Format external sd.
Make sure you back up your stuff first.

That's what you asked for in your post "just the sd card"

If you want to format your internal SD card using PhilZ CWM do the following:
Mounts and storage/ format SD card.
However there is no need if you install an app from Play Store called SDMaid, it's awesome!!
Go to 'corpse finder' and it cleans out your phone of left over crap from previous apps and roms
