a2sd memory problem

hey !
I've partitioned my sd as 256mb a2sd and my all apps are installed in that memory..but now a2sd partition is full and i cannot install any app..It says memory full( but I've 132mb left in phone's internal memory). so my question is how can i use that memory to install my apps.

wen, app2sd becomes not worthy for u, u r left with data2sd..
to enable data2sd--
1st of all delete the app2sd script..
flash any fugumod kernel..
then make a file & write in it "mmcblk0p2"..
rename the file to "fs.data2sd"
move fs.data2sd to /sdcard/Android/data/fugumod
restart..
u r done... )

And my question was how to install apps on internal memory( which is 132 mb free ).. how to use that memory ?

App2SD script is present in /system/etc/init.d. If you want to delete it, you can do it using root explorer. Mount system as rw and delete it.

that is not possible.. coz ur whole /data gettin mounted to mmcblk0p2 partition, so ur internal memory becomes useless..
***but I think that will increase ur system space... (jst a thought, correct me if I m wrong) )

Hmm. So you are saying that the whole data partition including /data/data also goes to SD with this??

Oh. You are right then. . And also we would need an SD card of high class in order for this to work smoothly.

That s ok. You can use apptosd v2. But this method described here, I don t know. Since the entire data partition is moved, you would probably need atleast a class 4 SD card.
But if you want to delete the apptosd script, delete it from /data/etc/init.d using rootexplorer. But your datas will remain in the sd-ext partition only. So don t know how you are going to recover that.

Op is asking how to remove partition.. not how to wipe/format partition.. so your answer is wrong for this question. So the correction..
You would remove it if you don't want to use the second or third(swap) partition anymore.
@ op.. use any partition managers like minitool, easus etc to remove it or as stated above windows disk management will do.. you would have to delete both partitions in sdcard and create a new partition of fat32.. search in Google.. you will find good guides..
But make a backup of sdcard first before doing it..

if you use some kind of partition manager, you can remove the partition without losing data, but always backup

err.. no.
Formatting only resets data on that partition. I mean it only clears data from that partition.. it won't delete the partition. Say you have 2 partition.
If you format in phone. It will format first partition. Second partition data will be intact. And it won't be deleted either.

just use any partitioning tool to remove both partitions, then make a fat32 partition of the whole sdcard.

you should be able to use minitool to remvove any sd card partition
copy anything you want to save onto pc
open mini tool
delete all partitions on sd card
create a new partition of fat32
hit apply
you could if you wanted just merge the partitions or delete the unwanted partition then extend the other partition into unused space but the above method is quick and simple

Try formatting the sd-ext on CWM advanced tab

Format sd card in custom recovery, after that push a rom to the phone to flash with adb : adb push namerom.zip /sdcard/. Try to push a rom first to see if that works/

Format external sd card, but why would you? You can just wipe what you dont`t need.
Usualy its enough to data factory reset, wipe both caches and format system before flashing a new rom. You don`t have t wipe the internal and external sd cards.

Format sdcard will do, that will wipe everything. Did you backup the EFS folder and stored it on your pc.
