dabigjoe6: How to Partition Your SD
Card for Android Without
PC?
The Android OS has lot of scope in
development and user flexibility.
This helps developers and users to
modify the architecture of the
system. The mobile can be modified in
several ways. Thanks the Open
source by Google.
Mobiles with low internal memory
thrive a lot in terms of performance
and usage. You can extend this limit
by partitioning your SD card and
expanding the ROM of your mobile.
So let us know how to partition SD
card and why is a partition needed.
What is Partitioning SD card?
In simple terms partitioning sd card
is breaking your sd card into two
parts and making one part
accessible for mobile (making it as
internal memory) and other part for
user. No matter how large you make
the partition, the more the internal
space better the performance of
the phone.
Why is it needed?
Primarily to increase the ROM of the
mobile. To make the device link to the
newly created partition. By this you
can link the applications that are
installed on phone memory to the
created partition thus freeing up
more internal space. Your mobile
becomes faster and there will be lot
of space available for you.
How it is done?
There are several ways by which you
can partition your SD card. You can
do it by few softwares available for
PC. But in this guide I will show you
how to make a partition without any
tedious downloads and intense use
of technical skills.
Requirements
1)Rooted mobile - Your mobile has to
be rooted for super user access. If
your mobile isn't rooted this will not
work for you. If you want to get
your mobile rooted, contact me with
your phone name, model, OS version
and baseband number. I will be glad
to help you.
2)Busy Box - Busy Box must me
installed on your mobile. This will
install required repositories for
your mobile. Download Busy Box from
Play Store.
3)Aparted - This is the primary app
that does the partitioning process.
Download it from here.
NOTE: Aparted should be installed on
phone memory only. Do not move this
app to SD card.
First backup your SD
card to PC. The
partitioning process
will erase all you SD
card contents. So be
careful before
proceeding.
After the backup,
install BusyBox
described above. Then
go to settings ->
storage -> unmount
the SD card. This
process will work only
when you unmount the
SD card or else you will
get error.
Open Aparted and
select the tab
"create" and tap on
green "plus" button.
You will be prompted to
create the first
partition. This
partition will be
accessible for user as
external storage. You
can select the amount
of space according to
your choice. If you are
using 4 GB SD card
(3.69 will accessible)
make a 2 GB first
partition. Select the
type as FAT 32 and
select apply changes
by pressing options
menu. This will create
a primary partition of
your desired space by
erasing all the SD card
contents which is used
as external storage.
After finishing the
primary partition
select tools. You will be
shown parts as part 1
and part 2 available
for your SD card. You
can make several
parts of your SD card
so. But preferably go
for two partitions.
Higher amount of
partitions need more
technical skill.. Now
the first part is the
primary partition you
made and the second
part is the remaining
space which will be
used by mobile as
internal memory.
Select the check box
on the
remaining second part
and tap on create (or
apply changes). Select
FAT32 option for this
part also. Now the app
will create a second
partition.
That's it you have
successfully created
partition on your SD
card. Reboot your
device and go to
settings -> storage,
where you can see the
external storage
available is similar to
the space you opted
for first partition.
Install Link2SD from
Google Play Store and
run the app. The app
will immediately
prompt you that
second partition is
found and asks you to
mount the scripts.
Mount the script as
FAT 32 and once
mounting is done it will
again prompt you to
reboot the device.
Reboot the mobile and
open Link2SD, select
options and check the
option 'Automatically
link newly installed
apps to SD'. This will
enable the app to
automatically link
your new downloaded
apps to the partition
you have created. You
can also manually link
the previously
installed apps to SD by
clicking on the app in
Link2SD and selecting
create link.
You can also see the
partition space by
clicking options in
Link2SD and select
storage info. It will
show storage details
of your phone, the
partition you have
created and also the
external storage.
Now enjoy by linking as many apps
you can to partition and free up
more internal memory. You will see
increased performance of your
mobile.
NOTE: This process may damage
your SD card if misused. Proceed
with caution
Tip: You can also repair the damaged
SD card with Aparted app which will
generally happen by faulty
connections to PC or any other
error during data transfer between
SD card and PC.
Bugs and Issues Fix for People
having Problem in Partitioning:
Please do a complete
format after backing
up your sd card.
Don't forget to install
BusyBox before
starting the
procedure. Install
BusyBox after
formatting your sd
card.
If you are having sd
card greater than
4GB, go for ext2
option while creating
partitions. If you are
having 4GB or less go
for FAT32.
Some unsupported
memory cards will
show errors after
creating partition
during mounting
scripts in Link2sd.
Please use supported
sd cards.
UPDATE: The Aparted app might have
been updated and there can be
changes in the menu order or
variety of options. But the overall
procedure is same. Please look into
the options carefully.
