[Q]Swap partition - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys.
I am having a wierd problem with my SD card.
Yesterday I partitioned my SD card and the partition scheme is
415.71MB Linux swap Primary
7GB FAT32 Primary
But now both my PC and the CWM recovery fail to recognise my SD card. But on my phone the SD card works fine with no errors ony the PC and the recovery have problems with it.
Any HELP would be appreciated...

U partition it with what?
Kernel? Recovery?
Maybe the microSD ADAPTER will help u...

maxomus , thank you for reply , what i mean is :
i want to partition the SD card so i can save the Apps in the
SD card .
how can i ?​
Not sure if I follow you, are talking about apps2sd or having them backed up on your sd?
Sent from my phone.
as you know , if i want to save the apps in the SD card , the SD card sould be
partitioned then the ROM can save the apps in the SD card .
the SD card now is FAT32 but the partition should be in lunix format .
u can do it from recovery
You just need to create an ext3 or ext4, you can do that through recovery on your phone or something like gparted on a desktop.

SD Card not detected...

Hallo...
I've installed 2 different custom ROMs with Stock Kernels by 2 different methods (xRcvry and CWM),
On both ROMs, the SD Card is not detected as if it is unmounted, even though physically it is, and I couldn't mount it even by xRcvry nor CWM..
When I connect the phone to PC, there is no options to connect, or charge, like it usually is.
What have I done wrong..? Can anyone please help me..?
I'd be really grateful.
I tried that multiboot a weeks ago...but my original Rom, the Rom installed to the phone, it mounted my as card...but the problem was the other Rom didn't mounted it.....i couldn't fix it...
Seems like u got a wrong step....
U partioned a swap ?

No, I didn't make any partitions...Should I..?
I didn't make any, because it's not part of the requirements for installing the custom ROM.
Btw, should the SD card be formatted into different file system, such as FAT, and not FAT32, prior to installing the custom ROM..?
From what I found here , the problem seems to be on the SD card class that we're suppose to use.
Mine is the original, which I believe is, class 2.
Could that be the same case as this...?

use card reader to check the format,,your sdcard must be FAT not NTFS
backup(just copy past all your folders) your sdcard then format it
turn on your phone WITHOUT sdcard..than turn on again WITH sdcard
now look..is it still not detect your sd card ,,

I've tried what you instructed (to format it from FAT32 into FAT), but, it's still unmounted (not detected)
Should I format it back to FAT32..?
What did I do wrong...?
Could it really be the card's class...???
Because, every time I flashed it back to Stock ROM by using SEUS, it always detects it.
I think it's sd card class....try a another card, don't buy a new... Just find a one from a friend or

No. It will make your SD a total brick. That's why people make Apps2SD scripts and such so you can partition it and break it on purpose.
Sorry Fot The Guy Above He Kind a Nows It All
Welcome To XDA Lets See
Make an sd-part. its not harmfull of course it shortens a bit his life But They All Die Some Day You Can Partition Without Problems And Start Enjoying Extra Memory On Ace
Totally safe.....Nothing will happen to it....Using swap is harmful for your SD Card,partitioning it isn't...

Backup your sd card to your computer before as you will need to format it.

You need to re-partition it, not to format it. Guide is here.

Hi, thanks for replying, I have another query. Do I have to do a complete partition of the SD? Or just remove any kind of partition you have?

You need to repartiiton whole external SD card. Do not do that with internal memory, just external sd.
And stock recovery needs external SD card, if you do not have one it will not recognize anything.

Use a Sd adapter and see if your sd card has multiple partitions that could be one of the cause

it has only one partition FAT32. the problem only found in nougat rom like the new cusrom DOTOs. when i change back to MM like lineage 13 it works well
I think your sd card has multiple partitions too. Let's use Minitool partition wizard to delete a partition
