Install minitool on pc.
You will see 2 partitions.
Delete the seceondary partition u made by right clicking and delete.
Now right click on original partition and then move/resize.
Drag the right arrow towards right so that unallocatedspace after is 0.
Click ok then apply
Hit thanks

yup....
Use another mobile (not android)
Which can accept your sd card ,use it to mount your sd card to windows computer
Then open minitool wizard
If it shows both partition,delete the second partition and move/resize the other partition and apply the changes
I think it will work

Only if you want to remove problems like low internal memory and want to use A2SD
My phone doesn't detect it either.
at start it gives small card with ! mark.
I tried formatting the card wholly with fat32,
I even tried making different partitions fat32+ext4.
In both ways my phone doesn't detect the memory card.
But when I do the update in recovery mode it updates through sd card.
My memory card is perfectly working on PC and other devices.
Try using the partition sd card option in recovery if you want to use Link2SD, A2SD or S2E.
Guys, do the cards ext2 or 3 , not 4. Don't know why but...... It worked for me. And if you partition them, make both partitions primary.

Thank you very much..I had the same problem, I formatted my SD card to ext3,fat32 and a swap partition and Wolla..its working fine:victory:.
There are some issues with ext4 partitions.
ext4 partition are said to be better but they might have some problems.
So if you encounter any, format it completely and delete all partitions. Using your phone recovery to make partition would be better.
Sometimes your second partition(i.e. sd-ext) is not detected by your recovery, and your main fat32 is works fine. Well that happened with me and i searched for solutions for long time. But did get any.
Later i fixed it by flashing the last cwm recovery with which the sd-ext partition was getting detected. Seems like the new version of recovery was the problem. Or something else, I don't know.
I know what you are thinking :
" Can't this Guy just search the forums first or Google it ? "
Guys I have tried all the things I can do and I don't find solution of my problem anywhere. I have partitioned my SD card at least 10 times and I am tired of it.
My problem is different . I tried s2e but its of no use.
I partitioned my 8gb SD card as ext3 , installed link2sd and tried to mount it and rebooted. And it said can't mount SD automatically at boot. But that problem is with everyone.
But then I tried another 2gb SD card which came inside the box with phone and its a success.
I AM able to mount my 8gb sd-ext but after a quick reboot.
So now I know that the problem is with the SD card.
One more thing is that whenever I partition any of my SD card with minitool, eject it and reinsert it to the PC, it says can't read SD card and asks to format it. And in order to place my backup files to SD, I have to format it. But after that I can't mount sd-ext.
I have
A Samsung 8gb class 4 SD card and
A Samsung 2gb class ( don't know) SD card.
Suggestions plz
Thanks in advance.

About which ROM-u is word?
With mini Tool ... you need make primary FAT32 partition and primary ext4 partition.
Before save all what you need from SD Card on HDD.
When you delete partition on SD Card in Mini Tool... , click on Apply,
after make primary partition, when partition is end, again click on Apply.

Simple, use card reader and minitool partition wizard delete partition and recreate it as FAT32.
put it in phone wipe dalvik cache then factory reset. Restart phone. If you have cwm backup restore else restore apps manually.
Pressing THANKS easier than typing.

Of course you're right with the 4GB file limit. But for testing if your sd card still works it should be totally fine. Once the card works, you can format it to exFat in windows.

Try to use SDFormatter. Try different options. If it doesn't help, may be your beloved sd card is (physically) broken.
Fat32
I think you have to format your SD into fat32
Hi goodafternoon! I just want to ask if im doing this right:
I want to install apk directly to my external SD Card because my internal only has 2gb of memory.
I tried searching for some tweaks and i found one using terminal emulator, i put the commands and it says 2[external].
Is it succesfull? And why there is a WARNiNG sign, im afraid of that.

Yes mini partition is best option for making partition...
But u can also use link2sd without second partition...
But if you don't use second partition.. Then only little problem occurs..
That the apps u linked to sdcard card becomes unavailable when u connect ur device to pc.. Because sd card mounted on pc...
This can be overcome by using second partition....
But I think its not a big problem...
One thing you can also make partition using ur recovery..

FIRST MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SDCARD...
Go to recovery > Choose advance option... > Sd partition..
Then select partition size which suits your needs...
(Make sure you choose ext4)
Great, i will try that man. Do partitioning sd card via recovery deletes all files of it? Thats why i need to backup it first?
