If you are using mini tool partition wizard, just delete the partition and create it back.

i tried it .. but after every thing is completed it says bad disk ... when I remove the SD card and insert it again the partition will be there it will not be deleated or created again ...
and I forgot my SD card is not getting reconignized when I insert it with card reader but works fine when connected with USB cable from mobile

Do u hav datas on SD ?? if so copy that some where else and TRY CWM partition !! remember CWM will format ur SD compleately[both partition] and create new partitions [set 1024MB if ur using 8GB or more] ..
I formated with cwm by making another partition n after that I deleated it n created a new partition with mini too
thx for u r time guys !

I successfully installed Simplicity 3.5 SG2 Edition.
I wanted to use Link2Sd and followed the script from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082465
Anyway, could follow every part of this script, but when I want to apply the data2ext script i can't proceede, because when I made a backup in CWM, it sais that "No sd-ext found. Skipping backup of sd-ext"
That is strange, because when I used Link2SD before it was successful when i chose ext2 as extential partition. There was no error-message.
So I in the prescription of the script use of Cronmod or Data2ext, the option in CWM where i can choose "mount and storage" --> there are only options for format "/data or /sdcard or /system or /cache" but no option "Format /data /sd-ext"
So how do I proceed?
Any solutions? Did i do something wrong?
I followed all steps of the threat mentioned above.

problem is link2sd mount 2ed partition as sdext2 not as sd-ext !!
create partition with sd partition tool on windows not safe... i lost 2 sd card with that thing... sd corupt/bad...:crying: back the question, remove partition & format sdcard with sdcard partition tool on windows, then create partition with CWM recovery...

Sorry that I have to bother again.
But I partitioned the SD card under CWM and chose 2048mb as the size for the extention (anyway in CWM there is no option to chose how the extention would be named or if it should be a sd-ext or sdext2)
Anyway, it seems like link2sd is artifically putting my programs to the 2nd partition or to the sd (app2sd) <-- the program is not installed, how it is possible (I use simplicity 3.5 sg2 edition).
And the internal memory keeps rising, so I think link2sd is not really working, because the partition is not right.
Simplicity after a clean install has about 45 mb internal memory used.
Right now I installed some programs and it has bout 84 mb internal memory used.
May someone help me, so the script will work.
I haven't used the cronmod script, because the option is not given in CWM.
The description is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082465
But in another post they recommended "amonRA" to partition the sd.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703251
So can someone explain a method which will give the SD the right extention and later on I can apply the cronmod script and help that my internal memory is not rising.

Try this method :
1. Download and install mini tool partition wizard on your pc/laptop.
2. Take out sd card from your phone and connect it to pc/laptop using card reader/adapter.
3. Backup your file from sd card to pc/laptop (just to be safe if anything goes wrong).
4. Open mini tool partition wizard.
5. Format your sdcard to FAT32.
6. Create 2nd partition with EXT3 format and set it as primary (2nd partition's size is up to you, 1GB is enough).
7. Apply changes.
8. Put back sd card into phone.
9. Install Link2sd and open it.
10. It will ask something like what format you wanna create to mount script, so choose EXT3.
11. Reboot your phone.
12. Done.
*Note : For step 6 & 10 it depend on which type ROM you are using. If you are using STOCK rom, choose FAT32. If you are using CUSTOM rom, choose EXT3.

XDA is for helping ppl
U got two options for internal memory [another one using both-->but i nvr tried that] sorry
1st option link2sd and this will work on every rom :good:
use this steps==> 1.create 2 partition on ur sd card , 1st one should b fat32/fat and 2ed one Ext2 or Ext 3 [select 1024mb if ur using cwm and 8gb or more sd card] ,using mani partition tool
2.download link2sd and open, will prompt a mount warning if u create partition corect [will be sdext2 not sd-ext] and select ur file system ext2 or 3 and reboot deice :good: done
3.open link2sd and select instalation preference to internal[for automatic link,work on most apps but rare on games-u hav to link manulay on that situation]
4.use multiselect and link all existing apps to 2ed partition, even if that in sd card , U MUST LINK EVERY APPS OR GAMES TO 2ED PARTITION note that
5.if u done everything right u must hav atleat 150+mb internal memory [ am using it and hav 140mb internal with 100 apps/games]
2ed option is Cronmod / Data2sdext
advantage is it will move everything to 2ed partition[means more internal memory] ,and disadvantage is litle bit lagg if ur sd card is not good :laugh:

Thank you very much.
I will try this option as you told me. I actually partitioned my card with CWM before, but it seems like that my CWM was out-dated.
Anyway, I have an 16 GB internal memory, is it also possible and good that I choose 2gb? I should use minitool wizard instead od CWM? As far as I could see it is not possible in CWM to decide what partition the CWM will make, so of course I can select 1024mb or more (and then 0M), but i can't select if it will be ext2 or ext3. And that is maybe my problem.
Because I partitioned the card through CWM before, selected 2048MB, 0M and everything worked. When I opened Link2SD i got asked the question and chose ext3, everything worked. Rebooted.
And after that transfered those files which should be on 2nd partition to there. Some other files were automatically put on SD-card after installation (due to app2sd). And here is my question, how can they be put there, if I didn't install app2sd on my phone? Was this app integrated into the Custom Rom "Simplicity v3.5 sg2"?
Ok the only problem what I didn't do was that I didn't change the installation preferences to internal memory.
But I would like to know? So it is not possible to have some programs on 2nd partition and others on the SD card? Because I heard the 2nd partition might be used as method to let programs run faster which used to be in internal memory of the phone and other programs, like apps can be installed on the sd-card, so they would be stored there and still can be runned.
So you suggest that I just put all apps and games on the 2nd partition, right?

I prefer mini tool partition wizard [bcoz u can select Ext2 or 3 or 4] ,cwm partition default by ext3[i guess] ... for a 16gb u can choose 2gb :good:
i dont think so ,Simplicity v3.5 sg2 not integrate app2sd by default..if ur using link2sd remove app2sd and proceed the steps i said earlier :laugh:
then about choose location..i recommend 2ed partition for all USER INSTALLED APPS/GAMES bcoz it will not interupt usb conection remember if app/games not link automatically ,u must link it manualy :good: u are done

ya that's corrects dalvik cache use about 60-70 mb of internal memory and you can move the cache to sd by a2sd script but to use it you have to partition your sd card
So what partition should I use??
I tried using cwm to partition now it show s only 7 gb when my card is 8 gb how do I bring it back it also does not shows on pc that there are any other partition via mini partition tool...
Help me
Atleast tell me what partition should I make and answer the previous question...
well mine was having 65mb so i cleaned it up...i hope i haven't done anything stupid by deleting all files in that folder

that is because u did a partition of 1gb sd-ext which is a linux partition and will not be shown on windows.
so now u have,
7gb fat partition and
1gb sd-ext : use DTa2sd or any other script to move that dalvik-cache here if u feels it is necessary.

Ok you can do
1) First partition your SD card by Gparted http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php and burn to cd
2) make partition ext2 or ext3 (not FAT) to your SD card and insert
3) Download link2SD application from market
4) Link2SD will detect partition
5) select partition and reboot
6) Now link2SD shows all apps and that helps to move dalvik cache and data to sd card partition, and u will be able to free internal memory
7) Remember, those apps currently installed in SD card need to be moved to phone first then Data and dalvik cache need to be linked to SD card
after linking Cache and data to SD card reboot your phone

As with every storage media you can actually partition the mSD. By default it ships as a single partition that is FAT32 formatted (otherwise Microsoft couldn't play Mafia and press license fees out of Android phone manufacturers as the FAT file format is copyrighted by Microsoft).

You can partition the mSD in either ClockworkMod recovery or you can turn off your phone, take the mSD out of the phone and put it into a card reader and then partition the card on your computer by i.e. EASEUS Partition Manager (Windows) or gparted (Linux).

I don't know how you usually check if your hoe is working (oh how I love typos), but you can check if the SD card partitions are working this way:
- Boot the phone
- Once it's booted up and you have no warning about the SD card then the partition mounted at /mnt/sdcard works. To check if /mnt/sd-ext is also working either open the "Terminal", type "su" (without the quotes) followed by "mount" which will return all currently mounted devices.

If you create a sd-ext partition (USE SEARCH to know what this means!) you can move your apps out of the internal phone memory onto the sdcard (this actually even works without a designated sd-ext partition). However, you can't move each and every app to the SD ... apps coming with widgets, apps that start automatically upon boot, a widget or a live wallpaper can't be moved to the SD as it will stop working.
Swap on the SD (to have virtual memory - much like the "pagefile.sys" of Windows or the swap partition of Linux) only decreases the lifespan of your SD most likely considerably when there's a whole lotta swapping going on - apart from needing a custom kernel as the Stock doesn't support swap.

A Class 4 mSD isn't blazing fast, but it should be about sufficient. In general, the higher the number of the Class, the faster the card, the more fluid the I/O transfers.

Look into the "Advanced settings" menu - and note that not each version of CWM contains that functionality. CWM 4.0.1.5 that is in some thread around here does not have the partitioning capabilities, CWM 3.2.0.0 (as shipped with GingerDX) is able to perform it, CWM 5.x.x.x as in nAa's or Alfs' custom kernel is up to your for checking out.

Depends on what you want to do ...
- swap and a normal data partition
Create a ~256-512MB swap partition
Partition the rest as a FAT32 partition
- sd-ext and a normal data partition
Create a ~1GB ext3 or ext4 PRIMARY partition and name it "sd-ext" (w/o quotes)
Partition the rest as a FAT32 partition

What filesystem is on your 2nd partition of the SD card? Make sure you select the correct filesystem in Link2SD when you create the mount script.
Mount the 2nd partition of your SD Card and transfer a file to it to make sure its been set up properly then delete the file.
Try repartitioning the SD card with ClockWorkMod Recovery, it does a better job of partitioning and creating filesystems on flash memory than partitioning tools meant for rotating storage.
Repartition using a different filesystem, when I setup Link2SD the only one that I could get to work was FAT32 but since you have the Razodroid ROM which includes Rafael's kernel I would have thought any FAT or ext filesystem would have worked. Incidentally before I got it working I was getting a similar error regarding "Mount script cannot be created" IIRC.
Hi i used ext4, but i just can make a link , when i check the capacity show me 200Mb total memory

So it's working then or not?
Link2SD works by basically fooling Android into believing an app is on internal memory when its on the SD card. It does this by moving files to the SD card and then creating a link to them in internal memory. So you won't see an increase in internal memory capacity by using Link2SD. However when you link an app with Link2SD you will free up space in the internal memory which allows you to install far more apps.
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955422
, but read carefuly the instructions !!!

RazoDroid v2.5 build version has had Link2SD removed i assume this was done for a reason as its a popular app, it might be worth checking out the thread to see if they mention why. Just a thought have you checked to make sure that both Partitions are primary?

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

try partitioning from the recovery.
It works correctly.

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.

have tried that but none of the options will work on my device
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)

Hi,
Is there a way to fix memory card?

i deleted both fat 32 and ext 3 that i originally created,
then i created fat 32 and ext 2 after wards.

Erase ur memory card using your phone Settings->Storage->erase

okay i think i did somthing wrong really, when i inserted it on my phone, it located the big part which is the fat 32 as internal memory, and then the small part which i set as ext2 became the sd card. now minitool partition wizard can detect it again.. im gonna try to fix it
Delete both the FAT32 & SD ext partition using mini partition tool. Then right click on your SD card & select create & then FAT32. Now select the full disc size ( by either moving the slider or by typing in the partition size to be created manually ) . Now select apply. Unplug SD card & replug. You card must be detected by the computer. Put it back into your phone, reboot to recovery. Then, advanced ---> partition SD card. Select your desired SD ext size, I recommend 512 MB ( more than enough to store apps ) & swap size zero ( swap kills SD card ) . Wait till the process completes, do not press anything. Once done, reboot. Your sd card is on the verge of dying away now. So don't use partitioning tools any further else they'll kill your SD card like they killed mine. Recovery is always your friend.
