i try used hd2 with wp7 after that i put it back to android some how the memory card 16gb only have 200mb why it happen like that how i restore the memory card back to 16gb please help
First of all, please search next time!! It has been asked before many times and you're not the only person who has had the problem...
Anyhow, put your sdcard in an adapter and plug it into your computer.. download minitool partition wizard and delete the two partitions, they are probably fat16 and "unknown" partitions, delete both of them, click apply. Then, afterwards, click on new and create a fat32 partition.. be sure to make the partition PRIMARY!
That happened to me b4

Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've this problem, and it's becoming frustrating, really.
Every modification I do to the microSD, such as copying files or deleting them, gets cancelled after an unmount.
Example, if I delete a file, it's deleted. As soos as I unmount the microSD (or unmounts by itself), the deleted file comes back, like nothing happened.
I've even tried formatting the microSD from a computer, first with Windows, but after a low level format, the content was back there! I tried then with an hard format, but it didn't even start. So I thought it was Windows' problem, and I've tried with a GNU/Linux application, GPartED. I was able to see both the partitions on my microSD, an EXT4 (1GB) and the FAT32 one. I was able to format the FAT32 partition, but when I tried to delete the EXT4 one, it gave me an unknown error. I've even tried deleting the whole Partition Table, but it couldn't. Files are still there.
Therefore, my phone is unusable, I can't install any app, they disappear after a while, I can't download anything, I can't take pictures or sync my music folder.
The problem is the same even when the microSD is plugged in my computer... It's a class 2 16GB microSD card... Please help
Take off and nuke it from orbit. Only way to be sure!
I would try formatting it from another PC before writing off the card, but failing that i would just replace it.
I've tried from other computers and in many other ways, but nothing. I've bought a class 6 microSD card, it seems like the old one was broken.
lol like the nuke it comment above
Yip, unfortunately all cards have a limited life span depending how much you write/read, i had one fail a while ago, nothing could be done so in the bin it went
first with gparted , recreate partition table ans after primary fat32 et one other primary ext4
second you mount ext4 partition of your external sd card automatically ??? !!! tell me how

Chkdsk /r ?
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App
chkdsk is not implanted on my SGS
but,
DF give a mounted partition /data/sdext2 from /dev/block/vold/179:10
and this is not visible (i think because it is mounted under data) from any android programme, even file manager, even ext4 extension tools from CF-root
so that's what i ask in this forum

Hey all, ages ago on my HTC Desire I followed a guide and partioned my SDCard with an EXT4 (i think?) partion for use with apps2sd I believe. Now, I'm using that SDcard in my Galaxy S2 and was wondering why the SD card was 1gb smaller than it should be an then I remembered about the partitioning.
Now obviously I can't view and edit these partitions in windows, but I can't remember the software I used before to create them in the first place. Can someone please help?
Thanks.

Minitool Partition wizard will do the trick. Or you can just use windows if you go through the computer management->storage->disk management.
Yeah I remembered I used minitool, but even that doesn't show me the other partitions when the sd card is in my galaxy s2, how can I convert those partitions back to fat32 seems neither windows nor minitool is detecting the partitions?

Hello i have one problem ... i have 16gb micro sd card and i cant format it .. if i format in pc .. all files is gone .. but if i take it in mobile(htchd2) all deleted files are back ... i cant copy anything or delete .. if format in mobile .. says cant delete ... unable to complete ...
please for answer how to result it ... thx for help
(sorry for bad english)
Seems like the format does not turn out very well. Please tell me, what file system are you formatting to? And are you sure your phone does support 16GB micro sd cards? If all else fails you could try a third party partition manager (Partition magic, acronis) to format the card. Even better would be to format it using linux, this works most of the time.
in pc i have win 7 ... formating (think FAT32) and i was use that card before im usin it about 1year ... in that time is everything ok ... but now i cant format ... (my phone support 32gb cards.) its HTC hD2 ( something info about phone ..) SPL 2,08 hspl 8g xe ... i before used AMandroid 2.3.4 cyan...
hmm ok, I suggest you try to use partition magic (you can find it using torrent networks etc. like thepiratebay.org). For some reason your pc just does not format it correctly which is highly unusual. So, in conclusion, if your pc and your phone do not want to format it like it's supposed to. Try using some third party software.
Also, isn't it sufficient to just delete all the files on the card? If so, use your phone to do this, it might also work and it would be the easiest option.
i try many programs ... but dont any effect ... and i try delete by ... MAGLDR v1.13 but nothing ... card maybe locked... ?? it is?? i try next day unlock it by reduction or i buy new card .... its esiest way .. to result it ...

Warez isn't tolerated here.
You can try and delete the partition in windows disk management. Right click my computer, manage. If you still have issues it's almost certainly a duff card.

Bump for this
I am having the same problem. I have a 32gb micro sd card that Im trying to use but I cant delete anything off of it or put any files on it. When I do try to delete items, it takes the time to delete the files and then removes them from the list, but when the card is put back into my phone the files are still there.This is also the case when I try to add music. The computer will take time to write the files, but in the end no new files are created
I have tried using windows to format it as well as SanDisks formatter. I also did a check disk in windows command prompt but no errors were returned.
It should also be noted that when I tried to reformat with Sandisks reformatter, I was using the adapter in my sd card slot and it said that the card was locked and to slide the switch. I tried it with a different card reader and the same error occurred. when I put the card into the phone it was "able to" reformat it. but the same problem is occurring.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
stupid questioN; but do you have activated some kind of write protection? ^^
Download MiniTools Partition Wizard (Freeware)
It fixed my SD-Card
Hello, i have a problem with my Galaxy Tab 2.7.0 (GT-P3110) with omni-4.4.4-20140820-p3110-NIGHTLY rom installed.
I have bought a SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS IT - MB-MPCGC EU (Samsung microSDXC 64GB Class 10 ) micro sd card and I used it out of the box in my PAD without need to format it.
(in Storage i have found it under SD CARD tab (Total Space 58.45 GB not sure if this is ok) but i don't have the option for Formatting it (only Unmount and after it Erase or Mount)
I can see it with Windows 7 via USB MTP mode and copy files on it but not formatting it
I have tested this card with Sdtools and Sdcardtester on the tab without any problem
Now my problem is that i want to use Link2sd to move my apps on the Sd card but i have no way to make the 2 needed partitions on the it
I have tried to see if Mini Tool Partition would able to see the card from the tab's USB in MTP mode without success, i have tried to use a Sd card reader directly on my Pc with the same result (with another microd sd i was able to have it connected in Windows but this card is only 4 gb)
I have tried this also on a different PC without any luck
I tried to make partition on the card in recovery mode (tried with TWRP_2.7.1.2 and PhilZ-Touch-Recovery_6.57.5 and CWM_6.0.5.0) but in none of the 3 i have found the Partition SD card option inside the Advanced menu...
So after trying everything i'm lost
If anyone have any advice or can give me any help on this i will appreciate it

See the before site for a tool for partitioning sdcards. Partitioning sdcards will erase all data on the card.

With Aparted (found in the Google Play store) i was able to check the card file system (the app told me that was FAT32 ) and to make 2 partitions
1 Fat32 and 1 ext4 but i still have all the same problems as before also with Link2sd not letting me move apps from the internal memory to the sd but only link them

I was thinking that my english was so bad that i was misunderstanding your first post
I tried that program before but it is not working for me cause i can't get the sd card working in Windows so i can't format it there
Still i was able to solve the big part of my problem because with Aparted launched on the tablet i made the 2 partitions requested from Link2sd to use the function Create Link that will help me a lot
Now i just need to know the best size to have in the 2 partitions. I'm still unable to move all the app but maybe sooner or later someone will find a solution to this .

Your English is just fine
The dying honestly depends on what files you need on your sdcard compared to the source the apps you plan to move to your sdcard will take up. I'd either make them both 32GB or one 16 gb and one 48 gb, the larger one obviously for whichever partition needs to be bigger.

Take a look at HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool.
It is an app for windows.
You might look up on Google for its download link.
Cheers.
