I partitoned my 8gb sd card with mini partition tool
6.xx...gb as primary fat32 and 800mb as ext4 primary
now after using it for some time..now i wanted to do a fresh repartitioning
so i formatted the sd card using cwm recovery...
Now I inserted my sd card into the laptop sd card slot..(using adpater)
Now the mini partition tool only recognizes 6.5GB as primary fat32 but its not showing any 800 MB ext4 partition
So wat do i do to get my the whole 7.xx GB memory back??

Using mini partition tool, delete both the partitions and format it to fat32
everytime i try and create a ext2/3/4 partition on my sd card the rom will then refuse to mount the sd card it says mounting sd card then sd card is safe to remove
it is partitioned correctly with primary as fat 32 6gb and a second logical partition of 512mb running ext2/3/4 all ofthem will not allow the rom to mount the sd card anyideas?
ok found the issuen i think it is detecting the ext3 partition as the main one and trys to loads this up first bu can as its ext not a fat32

there is no partition option in the recovery
Go to advanced option in CWM.

Go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117100 . You can partition your card directly from within the program. Your card will be wiped, so backup your data. Also, better to have your antivirus program disabled.
Or you can install the nobodyAtall CWM 3.2.0.0r3 or the nobodyAtall CWM 3.2.0.0r4 from that program as well, there's an option in the Advanced menu for partitioning.
CWM 4.0.1.5 and XRecovery don't have options for partitioning.

well finally got the dam x8toolbox to detect my phone and partiton the sd card ait was working fine till i took sd card out to add files back on to it and back to square one the phone wont mount the sd card as it detect the sd-ext partition first and tried and fails to mount that as storage
Without digging deeper into it, maybe you could just not take the card out and just use the USB to transfer the files.
What OS are you running on your computer?
Maybe u are using Linux swap that's why it is unmounting the SD card. & both partitions must be primary (not logical)(ext2/3/4)

Make the ext partition as PRIMARY, not as LOGICAL partition (as suggested in the previous post) This the problem source. (The logical partitions have different partition numbers)

Easier way is MiniTool Partition Wizard. Instal it on PC, plug in phone and you can menage partition without losing data.

you need to reinstall the stock rom after - use the ones here
and use odin pit here
you could try partitioning your sd card (2gb ext4 and the rest== FAT32)
good luck
