Sir , i created a partition of ext 2 500mb using minitool app. I don't remember if it was primary or logical. After partition my memory card is not shown.
i searched and found a similar thread(given below). Tried those things. But it didn't work.

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 have an HTC Hero rooted with stock 2.1 firmware
I installed Link2SD and read through the development post on this forum but encountered and issue I cannot figure out how to resolve.
I reformatted my SD card with 2 primary partitions using MiniTool. I re-sized my standard partition to allow for an additional 400MB partition then formatted the unallocated memory to ext3 format.
So now I have 2 partitions that look like this in MiniTool (4GB SD card):
Partition FileSystem Size Status Type
-SDCard FAT32 3.30GB Active Primary
-AppsPartition ext3 400.06MB None Primary
(sorry cant get more spaces between words, dont use forums often)
I thought that was all I needed to do but when I put the SD Card into my Hero it just tells me I have a damaged SD Card. What do I do to fix this?
I just wanted to say I figured this out on my own. I don't know what the problem was but I reformatted the SD card from the Hero and it only formatted the SDCard partition and then I had to reformat the AppsPartition to FAT32 file system in order to be usable by link2sd and it worked.
No idea what caused the problem to begin with but got it resolved, that's all that matters right?
I had problems too until I formatted partition 1 as FAT (aka FAT16 - NOT FAT32), and the second as FAT32 or Ext2/3.
The key for me was the first partition being FAT.
I've can't find the answer anywhere, so I'm starting a new thread.
I have a problem partitioning my 32 GB class 10 micro sd card. I need to partition it to use link2sd, so I need other partition to be ext 2/3/4. So if I try partitioning it with minitool, the first partition (fat32) works fine, but the second one (ext) after partitioning shows type as "other" and that the partition is full (no free space). If I partition it with cwm recovery, minitool shows what should be ext partition as unallocated space.
AOMEI partition assistant can't finish partitioning to ext (fat32 can with no problem), and gives this message:
Sorry, the current operation has been canceled!
Information Code: 305
Description: Unknown Error.
I haven't been able to find not only solution, but even similar problem is nowhere to be found, so I hope someone can help.
Hi,
I have tried to partition my 8gb sd card using minitool partition free home edition on my pc. Using a card reader I backed up the contents of the micro sd card on my computer. My samsung galaxy ace is rooted.
I have had no problem creating FAT32 partition (left about 1gb for ext2 partition). However, when I go to create ext2, I am getting this message: "The new created partition cannot be used in windows.Because Windows could only recognize the first partition on a removable disk". Please tell me what's gone wrong.
Thank you,
Regards,
Hector
Nothing has gone wrong and you really should search and read before asking questions.
The message tells you EXACTLY what it needs to, Windows can only recognise the first partition on a removable card - so what's the problem?
I have been using a 4gb memory card out of which 3.6 was usable. One day, I connected it to my chromebook and transferred a few files and directly pulled the wire off forgetting about ejecting the device and turning the usb mass storage off. Then I opened the file manager it was showing total storage:447MB and availabel storage:447MB. pls help me with this problem.
Here you go
First point first - Backup your data
I assume that you have access to a Windows or a Linux desktop...
For Windows you will need Minitool Partition Wizard Free Version...
For Linux - GParted will do the job...
----------------------------------------------------------
For your specific problem, it appears to me that the primary partition of your SD card is accidentally shrunk...
So, Plug in your SD card
Open up Minitool Partition Wizard or GParted, find your SD card.....
... and if I am right, you can see 2 or more partition in your SD card
[Make sure you have backed up your data before proceeding]
1. Delete all of the partitions present in your SD card one by one (right click on the partition to find 'delete')
2. You will now end up with an unallocated space of size of your SD card.
3. Right click on that unallocated partition and Create
4. Make sure your new partition is Primary, NOT LOGICAL, and FileSystem = FAT32
5. Apply your changes, and your SD card will be showing it's full capacity.
Thank you I will try it out and let you know if it works
One reason may be that your sd card has some bad sectors due to which some part of the sd card may not be accessible or maybe there is some kind of virus in your sd card. Actually it happened with me also but in my case it was my pen drive and the reason was some of the sectors were not working properly and at last pen drive did'nt work at all....
If that is the reason wouldn't formatting the sd card work out.
