    After root, partition of memory card (fat32 & ext4) through “Partition tool” & then worked with “link2sd” software for use sd card as in ternal storage, how can i know ext4 storage used as internal storage. Because my internal storage capacity of my mobile still shows same as shown before doing this process.

      is your phone rooted?

      then First make Primary by EXT2 file system then after make other partition according to your card free space ( If your memory card size is less than 2GB, select file system FAT. If it’s more than 2GB, select FAT32)

    hi , i have samsung gt s5570 android 2.3 with root and i have done exactly what u hav mentioned. I have made a partition of 6gb in 8gb memory card and rest unallocated space for added memory to phone. I was already using link2sd app to move heavy application to phone but even after making partition to memory card my internal memory shows low space. I have moved all application to phone. for eg facebook takes 13 mb from internal memory and when i delete this app then i got 13 mb back to my phone internal memory but when i reinstall this app then again my 13 mb reduces from phone internal memory then where is this second partition of memory card working. pls help

      Hi Abhishek, When i go for inquiry about MMX a77 jiuce, i hear from 2 mobile shop salesman that some problems in MMX a77 juice, thats why we do not buy a77 for customers… you can purchase only online… i view 2-3 complains on consumer sites also that customer purchase a77 from homeshop18 are not good.

      Can you pls tell me the actual feedback that i should buy or not…i want to buy from MMX official site….worth Rs.7999
