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

hi every one..
i have a problem with my samsung 32g class 10 sd card , i wanted to make a second partition using mini tool, i chose ext2 as a second partition and when i opened link2sd app it asked me to chose the file system of the second partition , again i chose ext2 , it asked me to reboot the device. i rebooted it and when i opened link2sd the same message that asked me to chose the file system of the second partition appeared again and when i chose ext2 this message appeared: "mount script cannot be created. mount invalid argument"
i returned to mini tool and tried both ext3 ext4 with no success. and when i tried fat32 as a second partition it created but when i try to link any app on link2sd it fails to link it.
plz can any one tell me what should I do.
thanks in advance.

First of all I want to inform you , that probably I have almost screwed my SD card (formats, data wipes, restores blah blah). The SD is 64 GB.
Now I want to start everything from the beginning and prepare my SD for the Link2SD with a fat32 and an ext4 partition (if I ever will be able). But I have some general questions
1)In most "How to partition SD for Link2SD" guides, it is written that the 2nd partition should be smaller than the 1st one. Why? Is there any serious reason? We all know that Link2SD links only to 2nd partition, so the 1st partition is useless...its like we bought only equal or less than half of the SD card.Thats why I am asking it.
2) If I create an EXT4 as 2nd partition, is there any max size in gigabytes for it? (for example... max size for EXT4 is 4 GB). What about the other file systems?
3) The Ultimate, rocket-science ,ultra-difficult, psycho-mad scientist, genious-1337 H4ck3R Question:
>>Warning!: Please dont continue if you dont feel ready.You can now turn back and answer only the first 2 questions. <<
As I said in the beggining my SD suffers serious issues. When I use a partitioning tool (example Mini tool) to create a FAT32 and 2nd partition as EXT4 or other EXT, at the end only the FAT32 appears and the 2nd partition is tagged as "Other" file system. Because I have Linux too, I used Gparted to partition it...but the same result! With one difference though... it gave me details when I clicked to repair the 2nd partition (the repair failed though). The details are attached in this thread. As I understood it has something to do with "bad superblock"." e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb2".
I dont even know what it's talking about... Are there magic numbers too?? Though I dont believe the SD has a hardware problem, I believe its because of the too many formats etc... I need some explanation for these problems o0 and what can I do?
Thanks for reading. You may answer what you can!
Hi guys,
I want to partition my 64GB (I know, 59GB actually) microsd card into 2 x 32GB FAT32 partitions. I've tried to do it in windows, using MiniTool Partiton Wizard like I did with other microsd cards until now, but without success: the tool creates two partitions but the 2nd one is not usable (it does not have assigned a letter); any attempts to correct this were futile.
Can this issue be fixed somehow? If yes, how?

Start over, get it back to one unallocated partition, then use the Aparted app from play store.
Or you can try this

Thanks for your reply @Droidriven!
I've managed to create those partitions: sdcard1 and sdext2, both FAT32 and having 29.5GB each. First partition (sdcard1) is working flawless: access speed, read, write. The 2nd one...
The 2nd one (sdext2) has an issue - I cannot create files (.txt), in root or in other subfolders. However, I can access it, move data to it from the other partition or from the internal sdcard and I can create folders and subfolders. In android's settings->storage menu, my external sdcard is shown as it has only 29.5GB (out of 59GB) but nothing about partitions.
Is this a permission issue (platform.xml)? Can it be fixed?

I don't know what your issue is, maybe because one partition is the primary partition. Did you choose all the same options when you set the second partition?
What android version are you using? Lollipop and Marshmallow do have permission configurations that are a pain, especially concerning extsd permissions.
I'll see what I can find, can't promise I'll find you an answer though.
The partitions' settings are identical, with the sole exception that one has to be the primary one. The microsd is new and tested with a few software programs to be sure it's not a fake (it's not).
I'm using AOSP 5.1.1 and yes, I believe there is a L permission issue.
Don't worry a bit regarding this issue. If you or someone else will find the solution, it'll be great, if not, life goes on.
Thanks anyway for taking your time!

How exactly do I get is back to one unallocated partition? That will solve all my problems right now
Hi guys (I'm from Italy, sorry for my elementar english),
My Samsung J500F (rooted, with stock rom lollipop 5.1.1) have a little problem with link2sd: my phone have a ridicolous memory of 8gb, for this reason I buyed a new SD card of 16gb for create a second partition with minitool partition, the first partition is primary FAT32 and the second is primary ext2. Now I have two partition of 8gb and 8gb. Then when I launch link2sd it seems that it recognize the partition and allow me to choose the type of partition.
But when i tick ext2 (I also tried to do the partition of the SD card in ext3 and ext4) and restart the phone link2sd always show me the dialog of choosing the type of partition. There is not any error message or something like that.
Any suggestion? Thank you all
It sounds like it's detecting the second partition but it is isn't persistent through reboot. This usually indicates S-ON or some other security scheme undoing the mount script.
Check my post from a couple weeks ago and see if it helps. I'm curious.
