I'm using Paragon Partition Manager (9.0 special edition) and an 8GB MicroSD card, and would like to make two partitions, one with the android files, and the other one so that I can put all my other stuff in. Is there a way that I can see my second partition in windows once I connect my phone to my computer, and what type of partition should I make? I can choose between FAT32, NTFS, and Linux ext2 and ext3.
Thanks in advance.
Ideally you are supposed to make 3 partitions:
First partition is the biggest partition (Fat32)
Second partition should be around 256MB
Third partition should also be around 256MB
I also have an 8GB card. However 8GB is really 7.61GB
If i remember correctly what i did was i shrank the sd card from 7.61GB to about 7.10GB...........which created approximately a second partition of 516MB or so.
Then i split that 516 in half so i had 2 partitions of 258MB.
Then i formatted the two 256MB partitions to ext2
***Important***
The fat32 partition (7.10GB) should be the first partition (must be on the left)
Then the other 2 partitions should come after the fat32 partition.
Failure to do this may cause the sd card to not be recognized in windows computer (i think)
Well I got it working with Paragon Partition Manager. I created two ext3 but I had to modify cluster size to 4.
Link2SD wouldn't recognize 2 cluster ext3 and it couldn't mount 8 cluster ext3.
Hello to everybody,
i have an 8 gb micro sd card in my htc hd2 with an ext4 partition that works with a nand rom. Now I have bought a 16 gb sd card and i would like to copy all the exact content of my 8 gb card on the new one including the ext4 partition with all the files i have in it so i don't have to reset my hd2 and reinstall everything. I hope somebody can help me. I'm running on windows 7 x64.
Thanks
Easeus Partition Master should be able to help you out... there is a copy partition function which sounds like what you need.
EaseusPartition Tool
Or MiniTool Partition Wizard can copy partitions as well...

Hey guys,
I have used CoreDROID 1.1 on NAND, and it made a partition on my SD card.
Now is my question, how to remove this partition? Formatting through windows doens't work, SD card stays 6.44 GB (8 GB total)
Any ideas?
Greetings!
ext3/4 partition i assume you mean?
use something like minitool partition wizard to recover the partition
use this MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 5.2
Rooted and running Prime 1.4, I formatted and partitioned the micro sd card with sdext, swap space, and fat32 storage partitions similar to a rooted phone's sd card. Now my computer will not recognize the micro sd card. Do I need the sdext and swap space, or can I do a complete fat32 or NTFS partition?

For me, I just use the normal Win format command to have a FAT32 partition.
Hi guys,i have a very big problem: my hd2 form yesterday didn't read the sd card.
I don't know why,but the recovery and andr oid can't read the sd card.
I had formatted it in 3 primary partition with this order: swap-linux,ext4 and fat32.
I did it with gparted,and the pc don't have problem to read the sd card,only my smartphone don't do it.
How can i resolve?
Try swapping partition order.
It should be fat32 then ext4 then swap
