<STRIKE>Hi again,
Who hasn't touched their MMC partition? Can I have the default partition table of the device from "parted"? I tried to flash stock img into my phone but it eventually stopped when it was flashing the cache. I presume it's due to the partitioning of the MMC not corresponding on what's on the IMG file. ?</STRIKE>
<BOLD>Update: Found it</BOLD>

Dear ALL,
I have problem in restoring original partitions on my DIAMOND.
I've tried ANDROID (still pretty slow) on EXT2 partiton created on Internal Storage, but i want to restore original partitions.
I thought that there was only 1 FAT32 partition for all the storage so I did that, but when i did so i'm unable to flash ROMS from Internal Storage. It says "No Image File!" and trigers USB flashing.
Could some one please explore your dimond in partitioning tool and paste screenshots with original info (number of partitions, type of partitons, filesystem)?
Thank you
Actually, there is only one partition and it worked just fine for me. I used Minitool Partition Magic Home and it worked just fine.
Just delete the scrambled name partition in there,create a new one with fat32 and full space and name it to whatever you want and wait for it to finish.
After removing the cable, try rebooting the phone and plugging it in with the "Disk drive" option activated. The partition should show up.

Originally there's only one FAT32 partition,but sometimes the phone wouldn't recognize it,that happened to me too,download HP Usb Format Tool (you can google it,you'll find it certainly),Then with it you have to format the internal storage to fat32,it fixed for me
i have installed the oxgen bravo table , what does the img do , is it just a new image for fastboot /bootloader
It resizes your partitions on your phone. It reduces the /system and /cache partitions and gives you more or less double the /data partition. The data partition is where all your apps get stored so it gives you more space. There is nothing special really, just resizes the partitions.
Tonight I decided to try an upgrade on my rooted Desire with ClockwordMod installed. I originally had the official Froyo ROM and downloaded the latest Leedroid Gingerbread ROM to give it a go.
All was going swimmingly until on reboot it took far longer than the expected 20 minutes or so to boot.
I pulled the battery and now the phone is stuck in a reboot loop at the 'Leedroid Android' splash screen.
I get the impression something may have gone wrong with the ext3 alignment patch somehow as I can't mount my sdcard to either reflash the leedroid ROM or revert back to the official ROM.
The output of parted from a terminal window shows the following:
Code:
/sbin # parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0 print
Model: SD 00000 (sd/mmc)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: 3942MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
2 10.8kB 3942MB 3942MB primary
So it looks like I've somehow lost my file system on my sdcard.
Anyone have any suggestions as to the quickest fix out of this?
Just realised this is in the wrong section... could a mod move please?
Try reformat the SD card with a 100% size FAT32 partition (use a card reader to do that, had this bug one time, i couldnt resize with the phone as a card reader). I recommend you this software (windows) : MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition
Search it on google. use this video if you dont know how to use it :http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCV7Eu1pjWQ
Just create a partition FAT32, Primary, set the size, and a ext3, primary, set the leaving size (max 1.5gb) apply and wait
Once it's done, you can repart the SD card with FAT+ ext3
put files on your sd card.
I flashed the first time with the zip alignment patch, had the same bug than you, retried after full wipe without the patch, juste rom and reboot, and everything was ok.
so wipe and reflash
tell us if it works
Thanks! Before I wipe completely as a last resort, is there any alternative way of recovering what's on the SD card? Unfortunately the last backup I made of its contents is over a month old...
Hello
I am trying to align my FAT32 partition on my SD card as per:
dubdubdub.patriotmemory.com/forums/showthread.php?3696-HOWTO-Increase-write-speed-by-aligning-FAT32
I'm having issues completing the process because my SD card has a FAT32 partition followed by an EXT4 one, whereas the guide formats the entire SD as FAT32. I've tried heaps of different things to get it working, even doing it successfully on a 4GB flash drive which was fully FAT32, but I'm convinced having the EXT4 partition after is causing problems.
When I go to (W)rite the heads/sector changes to the partition I get this error:
WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 22: Invalid argument.
The kernel still uses the old table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
Syncing disks.
No changes are made, not even after rebooting Linux.
Has anyone else had success with aligning their FAT32 partition with an EXT4 following it? I could try doing the entire SD card as FAT32, align it, resize it, and create an EXT4 after aligning it, but wasn't sure if this would work. I'll give it a try and see how I go.
I know its not helpful, but I was planning on doing this next time I flash a new ROM but haven't got around to it yet...
However, the link above which is clickable is here: http://www.patriotmemory.com/forums/showthread.php?3696-HOWTO-Increase-write-speed-by-aligning-FAT32
I imagine you need to change this bit:
Create a new partition that starts at cylinder 1 and ends at the end of the disk
to
Create a new partition that starts at cylinder 1 and ends at x from the end of the disk
where x is the size of the EXT partition you want to create
sadly it doesnt give the commands and i can't read the help here at work at the moment
I don't believe in such alignment.
Remove all partitions from gparted or windows disk management.
Download SD Formater utility from SD Card Association. And format your card. Full format.
Boot into gparted and shrink fat32 partition. Take note that there is 4MB in front of fat partition. Make sure it stay that way. In free space create ext partition. Use MB alignment in gparted.
That's all.

I don't remember seeing that option?
what about the flashable ext alignment zip's?
Hi Everyone,
I want to format my internal sd to ext4, at some extent I was successful in doing so, as I used mke2fs command to format internal sd, and it work fine while I was in TWRP recovery, partition format shown ext4 there as checked by cat /proc/mounts.
But the problem starts when booted to OS, there was a notification at fastlane saying "your internal memory is damaged and needs to be formatted again". so after many failed attempts I again formatted the partition with vfat, this there were no issues on booting to OS.
Can someone help me got it working, I am on stock Nokia X rom.
Thanks
