i formatted my sdcard then i made and sd-ext partition trough cwm 5.0.2.6
and s2e cant seem to find it.
cwm creates a corrupted ext-sd partition, if you are on windows use the minitool partition wizard, or if you're in linux, and already have the corrupted partition use gparted to fix the errors, or create the partition again.
Had told you already.
Dont create the same threads when it is answered

using px-recovery 0.3.6....
formatted my ext4 partition using that and its now the only time that my s2e sd-ext doesn't corrupt.
it corrupted even when my ext4 was formatted using minitool...

Px is based on CWM. Do U use CM9?
no...cm7.2
Well, everytime cwm formated the ext4 ext-sd it was corrupted for me... And I used gparted to fix it... When I used minitool to create the partition it also worked well.... Did you activate the ext4 setting in s2e?
Install a SD card/disk tool, s2e uses FreeSpace. It will display if your partion is well formatted or not. Also you can try mounting sd-ext in recovery, if it doesn't mount, it's corrupted. But the best solution is of course using Partition Mini.

hi
i cant format my ext 3 partition from clockworkmod recovery. when ever i try it says
"error mounting ext partition skipping format" someone got any ideas
Try to repartiton/format your SD card, using partiton managers (GParted worked best for me).
im having a hard time upgrading from ext3 to ex4....
everytime i try to do something after upgrading from ext4 it tell me it cant mount the sd-ext partition
but everything works fine in ext3, im using gparted btw
I'm using recovery-clockwork-3.0.0.5 to create my partition 2Gb and with wipe 32.
now i going to change my sd card. so i plan to remove the partition in the previous sd card. in clockwork i cant find 0kb in create partition section.
is there any idea to delete the partition in sd card???
You could use a partition program that recognizes EXT to remove it, such as gparted I'm sure.
Or, you could switch over to amon-ra recovery and overwrite your partition with 0MB size.
Well for completely removing the partiton, you need to use a partition manager.
GParted as suggested or Easus.
Repartition the card using Amon Ra and select 0mb for swap, 0mb for ext and use the full card's size for fat32.
Put the card in a card reader and format it.
hi there, do u use Easus before?
i using Easus, but the problem is why it can't detect the ext part of my sd-card?
Maybe you have ext4. Easeus says:
Linux partition management: delete, create, format, recover EXT2/EXT3 partition

Use gparted to get ur sdcard back to what it was originally.....simple....

Hi,
I have created a separate partition on my SD card for sd-ext and formatted it using pc (Ubuntu) to ext4 then ext3 then ext2 and used Recovery to format sd-ext but whilst apps2sd works, the app is stored on the main FAT32 partition rather than the sd-ext.
Is this still possible to do? I know that apps2sd working using the primary partition is still apps2sd but I would prefer them to use the sd-ext partition.
Many thanks.
p.s. all relevant info is in sig.
Hi, I have bought a 4gb SD Card, and made Ext partition from CWM 5.0.2.6.
Anyone can tell me what ext partition I have made: ext2/ext3/ext4? How i can upgrade to higher ext partition?
Sorry for my bad English
Thx for reply
I think you shoud use pc and partition managers to know that and upgrade.

I think you've made a EXT2 partition, CWM only goes up to EXT2
If you're using a Windows PC, you can download and use a tool called MiniTool® Partition Wizard (Home)
Delete the EXT2 partition on your SDCARD and make (move/resize) a new EXT4 Primary partition with a cluster size of 4KB
Hit Apply on the Top-Left corner

Hello everyone. I have searched several threads before I am doing this thread but since I am newbie to all rooting and partitioning it might I am not understanding the different methods. I have this HTC Desire rooted with Unrevoked 3.32. I have installed Cyanogenmod 7.2 and have a 16Gb Sdcard Sandisk Class 2. I have read that to partition with ROM Manager and Clockworkmod is risky, so I didnt went for it (maybe I misunderstood). So I went to use Gparted and also Partition Wizard but with same outcome. I partitioned it with FAT32 and EXT2 and even EXT3 but when I mount it on phone it says SDcard damaged and needs to format it. I know that there are several threads with this problem and I am sorry if I created another but maybe I am missing something. Any help please is appreciated.

Download recovery updater and use it to flash 4ext recovery. Use it to repartition your sd card.

Did you just added the ext4 partition or reformated the card completely?
I think, that gparted you be sufficient....I did it with gparted too and witout problems...
if 4ext doesn't help, try to completery reformat your card, ie delete all partitions and create new table and recreate partitions. Remeber to make the first partition FAT32 and the second partition ext4 (in this order).
Don't make to ext4 partition bigger that 1.5GB
I used both Gparted and Partition Wizard. created fat32 and tried both ext2 and 3 but not 4 but same problem, partitions created but phone says that sdcard damaged and needs to format. 4ext is user friendly or is there any tutorials for it?
