I have 542mb.

The size is either 2.10GB or 2.17GB, depends on the exact chip used - there are 2 possibilities.
You're making 2 mistakes:
1) looking at the size of /system partition only, thinking that this is the size of your memory chip.
2) thinking that you have a NAND, while in fact you have eMMC.

How to find my real nand flash size with adb.

The simple answer is - you can't.
By the make of your memory chip you can know.
How to know the make of your memory chip? Read the "good or bad chip" thread.

Swap Size

Just wanna ask, which is better, 32MB swap or 256MB swap? Also I've read somewhere swap size was supposed to be RAM x 2, but then again that would be pretty huge.
Neither, and 2x amount of RAM is only fitted for PC's. In reality it should be 1,5x. I myself tried using SWAP, but it slowed down my SD card a lot (reading, writing speeds). I suggest you should disable the SWAP completely because SGY has got a very good RAM management by default, thus no need for SWAP. I myself never ran into RAM-related issues. Also, as you know, SWAP is A LOT slower than RAM.
just use 256 bro.
I'm using 256 MB. Is stable with a2sd.
I'm afraid to try this one...i've read some threads about it, and is it safe for me to do it even if my sd card is not class 10?, sorry im just a newbie
When using swap the lifetime from sd card will go down.
GREEEEEEEEEETZ!!!

Yes, link2sd support swap but you Kernel must support swap to work.

What's the ROM size?

From the specs, it says 4GB ROM + 768MB RAM. But why am I getting 2G ROM + 600 RAM instead? I don't have a bad emmc. I bought mine a year and a half ago and this has always been a question I would like to see an answer.
I have 621MB RAM which is about standard on this device. That's just the way it works out. Ever checked the actual storage of a flash drive compared to what it says on the package?
Also, it's good to verify specs on multiple sites.

Thanks. If I remember it correctly, the tmo website said it has 4GB ROM. And I also checked the gsmarena and it says it has 4GB too. However I've got 1.13GB for the app partition and about 800 for cache and system. That adds to 2GB total which is half of the stated ROM size. It's not a big deal but I would like to figure it out weather it actually only has 2GB or it's hidden.
There are several partitions for boot, recovery, bootloader, etc. Perhaps when all are added together they come close to 4gb?

Unfortunately no. I used storage analyser and disc usage apps to check my partitions and I added them up. It's close to 2GB.

I just ran Storage Analyzer. It's not accessing all the partitions.

Sd-ext2

Hi guys,
I have a 1gb sd-ext partition that is nearly full, what with all the apps I have...
I also have another sd-ext partition created. Does anyone know if it can be used to keep apps there and use them, like how we use from our regular sd-ext.
Any ideas/thoughts if this is even possible ?
Thanks,
Greg.

Why don't you just enlarge your nearly full ext partition? I believe gparted can do this without wiping it. It may take a lot of time, though.

Yes, that's a possibility, but i read somewhere on xda that having 1.5gb or above creates issues?

Then don't make it larger than 1.5GB Some people say 1.5GB, others say 2GB. And it *can* become unstable, it doesn't have to. Don't know the facts about it.
I have 2gb ext4 on my N1 without troubles.

Swap internal mem with External mem.

Hello today I can across a video on YouTube for I9500 where with a certain kernel and zip one can swap internal mem with External mem only if on stock Rom wonder if such a method exist for I337

From what I gather, it's possible using one of the available kernels for the device, however I'd personally stay away from it. Most of the ROMs your find are better suited to be on the internal memory considering this is how it is designed. What benefits are you looking to gain by swapping them anyway?
