Help SD card, Stock Update, Partition Query

[SuPeRGL]

hello
please help me.. I've rooted my WFS recently.

1. I wanna upgrade the external memory to 8 GB, so... what will be the best Class I should choose?
I guess MicroSD Class 10 SDHC (Sandisk) will be just fine, isn't it?
Is it compatible?

2. Since, I've a rooted device.. I've another partition on my current MicroSD card which stores data (the LINK2SD thing)
So I wanna know, can I just backup that SECOND Partition and transfer it to my newer MicroSD card?
and HOW?

3. I'm currently on Stock ROM.
Can I still get FOTA from HTC or not?
If yes then no problem, if NO then how can I update SAFELY without Bricking my phone (as it is already rooted)
Running 2.26.720.3
Android 2.3.5

thanks..
hope.. someone's gonna answer..

Hi and welcome to AF!!

To answer your question:
1) I would say it works fine but some people have had problems with SD cards. There is a conversation happening on this matter over here:

2) As for your partition, I have never done it but this site has put up a little guide.

Okay, Thanks a lot

1. So, upgrading will be RISKY, I guess?
I'm upgrading just because of speed.
Currently I'm on a class II (not sure) MicroSD.
and I've around 20 Apps LINKED so SD.
so, it takes more time when restarting.
So I think upgrading to a higher CLASS will decrease this thing a little bit.

3. I personally don't like Custom ROMs
so, I'm still with my Original ROM.

Yeah I guess it could be risky, but I would say it's a low risk. I bought sandisk 8GB (Don't know which class) and it worked perfectly. Some have bought the same and had a problem. I would say the number of people having this problem is quite small
