If Android has set up a partition as ext4fs, chances are it needs features present in ext4fs that aren't provided by FAT, such as Unix-style ownership and permissions. There may well be exceptions to this rule, but unless you have a very deep understanding of Android, you're more likely to create problems than solve them by changing the filesystem used on a partition. | |
