swap partition is a partition (little part) on the SD card. its usually ~32-512 MB big.
swap is a little help for the RAM. big apps can be transferred to this partition if the RAM is full.
on gt540 ics/jb ROMs need swap to work properly, buzt on the other side it slows down the whole system especially with a slow SD card.
for gingerbread ROMs it's not needed but MAY improve your experience

How can i make swap partition ?
It is properly run on sdsl?
How can i transfered app to swap partition when Rom is full?
I also know more about this partition ?
Which type of partition should i make?and how?

I made a sticky thread in the dev forum about how to make one. I think i better clear somethings up, swap is used by the system to be (RAM) If you want more space to install apps then that is a totally different partition type.

Actually, no - that wasn't the least bit helpful. Like the OP, I've been struggling with this topic for a while and I've searched extensively, both on this forum and elsewhere, and have found no good description of how to go about partitioning my SD card and setting it up correctly. I understand that very often people don't bother to search at all and ask questions that have been asked and answered hundreds of times before, and that such laziness is quite frustrating to people like yourself who are particularly knowledgeable and experienced - but in this one instance, I think you may have been a bit too quick to dismiss the OP's question.

You can boot from a live CD such as Ubuntu and then mount the microSD. From there, the partitions may be extended to meet your needs. The live CD will see the ext2, ext3, swap, etc. linux partitions as well as the FAT32 ones.

If u are talking about the app2sd by dark tremor that roms have built in up to u if u use a lot of progs yeah otherwise no just use built in a2sd

I use this method. Partition your sd card through recovery (backup everything on it first) convert to ext3 and install this app.

just like darktremor but easier and can be used on any and every rom

A2SD+

A little while ago i saw on a forum that they where talking about App2SD+, what means that you have the whole app on th SD.
1) Is it just a joke or does it really exist?
2) If it isn't a joke: is it possible to get it on our phones?
Sent from my GT540 using Tapatalk
yes,it's true but if U have 2.3 ROM (not stock Rom) then there is no need for the app2SD when U can adjust in setings where to install new app's . that is my opinion
It is not the same, app2sd+ use sdcard ext partition insted of data. You can use s2sd or link2sd to use ext partition.

Use Mini tool partition wizard to partition your sdcard. make sure the size according to your sdcard size. As I partitioned 500mb. Most imprtantly make both partition as primary.

Conect ur phone to pc and restart them (phone nd pc) at the same time.
If that not help uninstall all drivers from pc nd install latest Kies.
Lol. Actually there is a much simpler way. Just do it in Cwm. I no need computer and card reader.
Though I still have to state that,
ALL YOUR CHEESE BELONGS TO ME!

huh? What do you mean by "memory swap"?
I mean to use my external memory as my internal and internal into external

Hope you are rooted. If Yes, you can flash extsd2internalsd mod by mattiadj. It needs a supporting kernel like perseus... You can search and find the mod in xda note 2 forum

As far I know swap is not successful on 4.3 yet. I am using Folder Mount to transfer app data from internal to ext SD.It works

why you wanna swap in 4.3 ? as i know you can move 2 SD , not like 4.1.2 thats why we go for int/ext swap

it's very useful using int/ext swap. because when i flash with different custom ROM, i just restore all apps from titanium backup, and all apps installed to ext sdcard. in 4.3, i have to run move 2 sd for each one by one apps every time i change to different rom..
