[Q] hd2 please help

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

So I partitioned it through CWM 256 ext and 32 swap and when using link2sd it's exactly like apps are in /data(widgets...)
I don't know about risks coz I didn't face any
PM me for any question I'm ready to help!
I too have a doubt when I partitioning my SD card all my data in it will gonna erase

Yes, partitioning your SD card will format it and erase everything on it, so back it up first.
The point of an ext partition is to extend the internal memory, so you can load it up with apps and not run out of internal storage. This comes in handy on the ov which has very little internal memory to begin with. With an ext partition, you can use apps like link2sd to create symbolic links to your apps, so they can be on the sd card, but the "think" they are on the internal. This way you can move apps that can't be normally moved to the sd, or use widgets, which need to be on the internal memory. I, however like cronmod's ext scripts. They can be put in the init.d of some roms, and they will move your data partition, and/or dalvik, and/or data/apps to the ext. That way you don't have to manage apps like with link2sd. In a sense, it's like adding straight to the internal memory.
To partition your sd card, the easiest thing is to do it from a custom recovery. You won't get to choose the filesystem, but you can choose the size of the ext partition and swap. Keep swap at zero, as most phones here won't use it. Set your ext partition to ~10% of the size of the sd card.
If you want a different filesystem than your recovery gives you, you can use the minitool partition wizard on your pc with a card reader:

Is swap partition really helpful for low ram devices and O1??
Do we need to use any script to use of swap memory or is it done automatically??!
Edit: Good info about swap partition.
hope this can help you!

Actually swap is not needed for o1.Even on ics i have about 150-200 mb of free ram most of the time,and if u make swap partition u'll get even more free ram.But remember unused ram or free ram is nothing but waste of ram in linux,unlike windows.

Re: How to resize my sdcard Partition.
Your SD card will be formatted, old partition deleted, new partition created.
Sent from my GT-P7310 using xda app-developers app
Just in case it isn't clear, you will lose all data on the sd card when you repartition. If you use gparted, you can accomplish the same thing, while preserving the data.

Copy your all data from SD card.
Go to Phone Settings> Storage Settings> Unmount SD card> Erase SD card.
This will delete all your old partitions from SD card.
Now reboot in CWM recovery and partition your SD card according to your need.
Restore your data.
Cheers!!!
Use minipartition tool from a PC, connect your phone as usb storage and it will resize your sd card partition without formatting.
Success
ThanX for the Help Guys...
I have successfully resized my partition to 512 MB using ClockworkMod Recovery. As mentioned by "upconvert"...old partition deleted, new partition created.
Would like to share my experience with the below tools...
GParted - Itz an 100 MB ISO file & after downloading got to know that it can be used only from Boot mode :bad:
MiniTool Partition - This one has a pretty neat UI & the setup is sized just 14 MB. The problem here was the Resize option didn't work for me. Not sure on the exact reason , maybe it requires the memory card to be connected using a card Reader & not as a USB storage.

ROM :- HoneyWizz by Kssood & Kukde

I don't know why minitool partition didn,t work, I personally used it on a phone connected as usb storage. Maybe there is a problem with order of operations (delete one partition before resize the other etc. but i'm not sure).
Anyway I'm happy that you solved your problem.

Can you provide a tutorial on how to do that? I have a 16 GB SD card. Out of the 14GB available, 13GB is my main partition. 1 GB is my app partition. I want to increase the app partition without formatting my SD Card.
Thanks!
MiniTool Partition Wizard 10 worked perfectly for resizing a 16GB to 64GB for the kids' Kindle Fire tablet. I initially cloned the 16GB partition to the 64GB using WinDiskImager32, then resized it afterwards.

[Q] Expanding internal storage

Hi, my girlfriend ask me to do something with HTC ChaCha internal storage as it can't store much stuff in it. I tried to move some app to SD card but it seems like it doesn't help much as apps cache will eventually fill internal storage (at least she doesn't have to clear all cache to get some space). Is there anyway to increase HTC ChaCha internal storage from 150MB to 512MB or more, or swap SD card to internal storage?
can make 2nd partition of ur sd card and use it..u can do it from recovery mode,,,but u cant use it on stock rom,,ur rom must supported the **init.d**...either u can use cron mod if u are using cyanogen rom...u can find cron mod thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716124

Hi

how can i'm do it?
beacause im saw a tutorial on cm11 post
and how much partiton size i can choose?
because im saw that im can do 512mb partiton
and 1024 mb partiton
and if i making partiton the apps will removed?
If you create a partition all the stuff on you SD card will be removed.
512 MB should be enough for most people IMHO.
You can create a partition by using Partition Manager.

XDA is a global community and as long as your English is understandable you're good to go
That guide should work and yes a partition will allow you to install many apps.

From my experience if you want to partition your SD Card, it's best if you first backup all you SD Card data to other storage, and then partition it using Partition Manager or Recovery like CMW, and than you copy back your data to the SD Card. On some occasion (twice to be exact) I found that partitioning you SD Card using Partition Manager without backup and clean up/delete all partition before creating second partition will reasult in read only second partition on android.

I noticed that too.It rendered my SDcard unreadable on CM11.I had to use other phone running JB to format it.
Also doesn't partitioning memory card formats SD card before partitioning (Except gParted)

You meant external (sdcard-ext2) memory? Then follow @akiratoriyama suggestion. Internal memory /data partition is fix, 200MB. And it's dangerous to repartition, AFAIK.
