hi
i installed leedroid 2.3d rom. but whenever i try to install some apps, it goes directly to phone memo. in order to install apps to sd, what am i supposed to do?

Have you got an EXT3 partition on your SD card? If not, that's why

i have 4g msd card, it came with phone, i tried to format to ext3/4 , it didnt work. so do i need a new msd card which can be formatted to ext 3/4?

did u download the a2sd version of leedroid? If so u need to do what Eddy suggested.

Take a look at this.

Don't understand why you should not be able to add a partition to any SD card though. What did you do to create the partition?

Well there's plenty of stuff that does want an fat32 partition on the card, so you don't want to format the whole thing anyway.

What you need to do is what it says in the FAQ linked earlier: add an ext3 or ext4 partition to the card. 512MB-1GB is fine. If you have ubuntu then use gparted - you can install it from the ubuntu software centre if not already there (they include it with live distributions, but tend to leave it out once you install). My disc has the fat32 partition, followed by the ext (to the right in gparted's partition map). No swap partition needed.
