Use cute_prince’s method. It's longer but has a higher probability of recovery when there are many bad blocks. Erase mtd3 (system) instead of mtd4 and mtd5

I'm think you can do this in recovery. Just pretend you're partitioning your sdcard except set the ext partition to 0mb and swap to 0mb.

Setting 0mb is not in clockwork mod recovery..

You need to format the sdcard again after setting to 0 to get the whole memory again,or else the partitioned memory wont be visible.

D'load "partition magic" or such software to ur pc.connect ur sd card with the help of a card reader to that pc. Then do "merge partition".It should delete the partition.BTW don't forget to make a backup of ur sdcard.
The simplest way : insert ur memory card in some nokia mobile den open ur memory card format n u r done. Other method : go to setting in ur phone go to storage and format ur sd card.

What if i made a partition and now i can't retrieve the information i had before partitioning? I'd like to some how delete the new partition and be able to use the data i had before. I don't want to format! I just can't get to the partition with the data.

If u partition from recovery,ur sd card is already formatted and u cant retrieve data back unless u have a backup on ur pc.Dnt know about pc tools for formatting.
Use gparted on Ubuntu (you can put it on a CD or a memory stick and make it bootable - with poweriso - and boot into live CD, no need to actually install ubuntu, but after you try it you will, try with wubi to avoid partitioning)

I think mini partition should do the trick, you can delete the ext partition, and then resize and expand the fat32 partition and integrate the fat32 partition with the unallocated partition created after deletion of ext partion

[Q] How Is the internal memory partitioned/set up

So. I repartitioned my internal memory so i could use it to boot up my mac(long story short). I changed it to GUID partition table and formatted it to Mac OSX. Now iforgot how it was originally set up and CMW will not mount/reformat it. Im assuming i need to change it to Master Boot Record and partition it to MS-DOS (FAT). is this correct? will someone please give me some advice?
Look in the dev section for the Batch Cleanup Tool. It rewrites the partitions using NV flash

Can you load cwm? You can format emmc from there and then run the cleanup batch.
Are you able to download the bootloader?

Btw, I am very interested in this case as I have never come across something that could not be fixed with nvflash and this case seems as the first.

Change the recovery. You must be using CWM. Try TWRP. Works wonderfully.

follow this steps from here:
2. Prepare your SD card, using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition,
a. move all existing data on the SD Card to your PC and delete all files from it. RESIZE your existing FAT32 partition to a size where your unallocated space is at least 1GB but not more than 2GB.
b. Create a new ext4 Primary partition using all the unallocated space.
c. Apply changes
(I've written RESIZE in CAPS because when I tried deleting and creating the FAT32 and ext4, my phone didn't recognize the formatting as valid. So I allowed the phone to reformat the sd card and then did it using resize FAT32 instead)

[Q] Cyanogenmod 9. No mount to sd?

I switched over to CM 9.1, Xperia S look and feel after using Explode^1. I was using my Sd-ext as my internal memory before, but I can't seem to do so on cyanogenmod. Every time I mount the Sd-ext, it unmounts after rebooting. Can anyone tell me how to mount Sd-ext as internal memory on cyanogenmod? It'll be very nice of you

No. Don't change recovery. People says cwm is best. So better to not change recovery.

CMW has error mounting the ext partition..
so better switch to yannos recovery or twrp...coz on CMW you wont be able to mount ext partition..
yanoos recovery is basically CMW with ext partition support....CMW may be best recovery for others but not our phone...
Change ur recovery...Problem solved

Get A310E recovery (yannou's recovery), or simply use minitool partition wizard on your pc to create the partition.

Accidently did factory reset

Hi folks,
I accidently selected factory default from the Bootloader menu instead of recovery and finally ended up losing all my data from sdcard... Have seen a link at xda forums where we can recover the files that are deleted from a mtp medium.. But for that we need to identify how our medium is mapped like mmcblk0 or anything.. Can anyone help me to find how our device sdcard will be mapped inside dev/block

You can find a thread on partition layout here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091801
The sdcard is /dev/block/mmcblk0p36
Hope you can recover your stuff.
