Re: Help to Partition Sd Card

Swap: 32 is general setting for max performance. Anything higher and its likely overkill and going to cause issues.

Ext 2 is where your apps will be stored if apps2sd is enabled. This depends on how many apps you thing you'll have on your device. Normally 500mb to 1gb is acceptable... With a 16gb card. I'd do anything over a gb and not have worries.

Fat32 is what is left over... When you mount your sd card this is what you will see on your computer, so you can drag and drop files to use on your phone.

What class is your sd card by the way?
