Hi,
I have a 16GB Micro SD card that I want to create a 1GB exts partition on.
I have the free versions of Paragon and Acronis, but it would seem I need the full version to create a partition on an SD card?
I therefore got minitools partition manager and I was able to create a partition, but it is unallocated and it's status is NONE.
The FAT32 partition is Primary and the unallocated one is logical.
If I click on this partition almost everything is grayed out so I cannot format to ext2.
Please help.
I am running this on a cheap card reader from ebay on Windows XP.

Ext2 obviously
If it helps the card has a 4 on it, so does that mean it's class 4?
I think I'm a bit dumb !!!
I'd resized the partition only, so it was simply unallocated.
Are there any free partition software downloads that allow me to create a partition please?
It is MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition from partitionwizard.com

I did, I think I used ROM Manager in the end.
It didn't work to begin with, I played with the Partition software above, then I went back to ROM Manager and it worked.

I got class 4 4gb memory card and has used minitool partition wizard to create 3.5gb fat32 partition and 500mb ext2 partition. but when i connected to my SE x10mini and it says 'damaged memory card'. but then i format the memory card via my phone and the ext2 partition has been erase. may i know any suggestion to create 2 partition and make the phone able to recognise the memory card??
one more question, may i know what is the next step to make ext2 partition to be apart of system's space??
I`ve managed to make two partitions using Gparted (win).
I used Link2SD first to create a partition , it did create a external partition but it showed me every time that the script couldn't be mounted.I tried it with ext2/3/4 as well as FAT 32/16 but no use.Now I want to repartition my SD card and want to try it again with d2ext.How to repartition my card? I tried to format it after creating a back up but it is still showing that it has a external partition. plus, I am not getting the option of 'partition sd card' in the advanced menu in the recovery.
What to do?
can u be more precise!
Use MiniTool partition manager(computer) for it.
Create partition with FAT32 of desired space.
Insert SD card in phone
And open link2SD, it will ask you for script.
Try with Fat32 or ext2.
It should work.

Hi all.... I haven't found specific answers to my questions so am posing them here.
I am running CM11
Can you expand your internal storage without doing an entire ext sd card to internal swap? I want to use only part of my ext SD card to enhance the internal storage.
Is there any point in formatting multiple partitions on the ext SD card as fat32 / ext4 / Linux swap anymore? I thought doing this would have part of the partition used for internal storage and part as the ext sd card storage. Formatting the SD card through CWM deletes all partitions and formats it all as FAT32 for external storage only.
Thanks and go Blaze haha

Thanks ink. I will look at this more tonight but I did use Partition Wizard Home and formatted the first partition as FAT32 which is recognized as the external SD card1 in CM11 but the 2nd EXT4 partition isn't recognized by the ROM it seems. Maybe I just don't know how it would be used but checking the storage in settings didn't have any change to internal.
Which is the best software to create partition of MIcroSD Card to use it with Link2SD. I tried Mini Tools Partition Wizard but it messed up my sd card. After creating the partition, my laptop could not detect SD Card. It took me a lot of time to fix it. Please suggest some good software for Windows 7.
Minitool partition wizard

Hello everyone,
I have a SONY M4 aqua E2303 - Android 5.0 build 26.1.A.3.111
I have a 64GB Sandisk Unltra - class 10 micro SD card
I am trying to partition the SD card to extend the internal memory through Link2SD :
I tried to partition with computer and mobile apps ( Minitool partition and through apps AParted and Apps2SD )
more than one time I did partitioning
50GB fat32/ 10GB ext2
50GB fat32/ 10GB ext3
45GB fat32/ 15GB ext2
45GB fat32/ 15GB ext3
52GB fat32/ 8GB ext2
52GB fat32/ 8GB ext3
always the big part is the first partition
The partitioning succeed but each time I insert the SD in mobile, gives me Damaged SD card error and now all tries failed.
Pleeeeaaaase ... any suggestions...
Thanks a lot
Did you try deleting all partitions and starting from the beginning?
