Do you have xRecovery or CWM on your phone? you can format it with that.
Otherwise, look for GParted and use that.

minitool partition wizard can see u flashcard then Windows cant do it

You've been given two other suggestions, either Gparted, or miniitool partition wizard... they will both do what you want.

ok thnks but i tryied formating my sd card from my computer but nothing HAPPEN
D WHY ??

Formatting only empties the existing partition, and windows can only detect the FAT partition on your sd-card. You need a partition tool to either remove the other partition(s) and resize the fat partition to full size, or just delete all partitions and make a new one formatted in FAT.

thanks man sorry but could you help me with mini partition tool ?? i am a noob i am so sorry.I download it and what nextt ??

attach your phone to your computer
start Minitool partition wizard
Your SD card should be listed (probably as PHONECARD, check the size and the name with what windows shows you)
Click on the partition you want to remove and click Delete (leave the FAT partition alone)
Click on the FAT partition and click Move/Resize (use maximum available space)
Click Format
Click Apply
Done (I guess)

the problem is that it only shows my hard drive and my phone nathing else na partition but i know there is buacuse the sd is 4 gb and only 2.74 are free wtf??? is going on men ??? i dont know

fianly men thanx for all it had been fixed thnx for all thnx all of you

Back up all content on SD card.
Boot to AmonRA recovery. Choose to partition SD.
Choose no EXT partition, and no swap
There you go

Thanks, but i have already tried that, and it didn't work.
For those still having this problem, SD Formatter works perfectly for regaining the space in those ext2 partitions you no longer want.
Remember to backup all your important information from the memory card before formatting them.
If those wanting the link to download the software, pm me because I can't post links within posts yet.
SD Formatter works awesome. Just do a google search.
I just used Acronis Disk Director 11, (os win7), deleted the ext2 partition, and then to complete the task it will ask to reboot, then go back into DD and then resize to the full card. Again it will ask to reboot and that's all you have to do. Very easy.
thanks alot.......SD formatter works like a gem.....
Looks to work nicely. Thanks.
here is simple method that worked for me
i went to partition sd card option (after i had partitioned it wrongly)
then went to
advaced > partition sd > ext size to 128mb > swap size to 0mb... and i m done ...
recovered my 4Gb in 8gb card..
now installing MIUI ROM

You done something WRONG. You have partitioned your SD. In what format they are(partitions)and how big is your SD?
CHEERS!
I am using 4GB Card..
First Partion is for FAT32 say ~3.5 BG
Second Partition is for ext4 ~.5 GB..
I also tried other way around..means First ext4 and then FAT32..

OK, but you spelled little wrong(3.5gb and 5gb=8.5gb). Not matters. Try to make NOT ext4, but ext2. And but them both like PRIMARY PARTITIONS.
CHEERS!

.. Dude just reverse the partition order... first fat then ext... worked for me as windows does not recognise ext and may be if you have partitioned ext4 and your current rom does not support it (or mount it) it would say damaged SD.

not sure but i have formated my sd card many times. sometimes that tools gone crazy. i suggest u select the sd card in minitools and run 'wipe' first by click in menu partition->wipe partition. than u can format like it should.
btw my laptop cannot read if my sd card partition fat32 + ext4. it asking me to format again if wan to open (in my computer). but other laptop can open.

can't partition SD card to ext file system

I want to create a ext partition on my SD card using GParted. But when I do this GParted will not finish the operation. I wait one or two hours and nothing happens. When I create a FAT32 partition it's no problem. With FAT32 everthing works(read, write). With CWM I also create a ext partition but CWM only create a FAT32 partition and instead of a ext partition there is a non-partitioned area. Did my Legend distroy the SD card? I don't understand it because I can use a FAT32 partition. Need help
Thanks for help and sorry for my bad english!

Use cwm instead to do the partitioning. But be sure to backup ALL contents of your sdcard as it will be completely wiped/formated.

Do you mean partitioning with cwm? I did this but it don't worked. Now I have an other trouble, too. I can't create a 2nd partition on my sd card :crying: I need this partition for my apps. Is there any way to "repair" my sd card or I have to buy a new one?

Since rooting my Legend, I have used up about 4 SD cards. They will work in other devices (DSi, other phones), but not in my Legend. My Legend just refuses to recognize them. So, to spare yourself a lot of hassle, you can try once more to, in recovery mode, format the card by using CWM (first make a backup of your card of course), then partition (create an EXT partition) also by using CWM.
If things do not work out, by a new SD card. That is what I did.
Edit: I just remembered: if your card has an ext partition and you try to create another ext partition, you will end up with two ext partitions. And my Legend wasn't too happy with that, after each reboot all my widgets were gone...

Can you connect your sd card to a pc. Maybe you can format it as ext4 for using Windows
