I've been having a few problems with partitions recently, how do I remove sd card partitions???
Also why is minitool wizard taking so long to write partitions, especially 500 mb?
Format your sd card from some other phone like an old version of nokia.

I can't format my micro sd card to create exe3 partition with mini partition tool it sais it is write protected...I have done this hundred times why now ...any help is welcome, thanks
You mean ext3 partition.
Well there is a switch on the card adapter, which says Lock. If you haven't noticed, there is the solution. ;-)

Anyone have any issues with your SD card from your previous device not showing the files that are on it?
I know they are there because the card says 3 gigs free of 14....came from my Fascinate.

It could be formatting issues with the Sd card. Also sometimes Sd cards won't work going from one device to the other. Try transferring/backing up your files from the Sd card to your computer than reformat the Sd card, transfer you're backed up files to the freshly formatted Sd card. Finally put the Sd card back into your phone and you should be able to access your files.

and when you reformat the sd card(after saving to pc 1st), format to fat32 w/ active partition manager. not sure if youre rooted yet but this helps w/ cwm recovery. the exfat file system from windows and format sdcard feature w/ the phone gave me trouble.

Check your sd format, it should be fat32.
I got my S2 rooted. can I move these games from the internal and sd memory to my REAL EXTERNAL SD card?
And still have the icons @ the same place @ dekstop and play them directly?
How would I do this?
Thanks.
Use Link2SD app. You can also create a second part of your sd-card with MiniTool Partition Wizard for Windows then link your apps to this 2nd part. Root needed.

I have an external sd card formatted as 54 gb fat32,3gb ext4, and swap. When I insert the sd card and restart, the phone storage partition (/sdcard) disappears. When I look for the partition with a file manager it appears as if the link is broke because /storage/sdcard0 is also missing. Instead my app storage partition shows 16 gb.
This is bad because I can't access the internal or external sd card partitions. If I remove my external sd card and reflash the rom everything is ok.
I followed a guide so that I could setup app2sd. My assumption is that I would have access to the fat32 partition on the external sd card while also using the ext4 partition for app2sd. What am I doing wrong?
Just curious. Why did u partition your card?

I for some kind of app/data 2 sd solution. I keep running out of internal storage.
Weird. I'd say to reflash the rom fresh after a clean wipe. Also, if u have that many apps, I'd consider disabling or unistalling some.

its mostly the media scanner app, google currents, and chrome for android.
The media scanner app will take up 300mb because I have about 25 gigs of music on my sd card.
Media Scanner? PowerAmp has a very nice folder scanner.

This is exactly something I wish I could do for my phone. Allocate the full 16G of onboard storage to App Storage and use my SD card as an actual SD Storage. Is this because you partitioned the SD card the way you did (Fat32/ext4)? After a fresh flash of a rom, wouldn't everything work normally with the SD card being the only SDCard0 instead of having 0 and 1?

I used a bad guide which caused my problem. Never use a windows machine to partition ext, or any partition not native to windows.
I booted up a Linux that had mini tool baked in. Once I fixed the provisioning issue with my sdcard it stopped disappearing. Then I gave up. The partition still isn't recognized by the system. My total system storage Mercer changed.
What I think you are describing is switching storage links.
