My 32GB Sdcard Changed To 1.99TB. Help!! by Judek2(m): 12:22pm On Aug 28, 2015
I tried to partition my 32GB memory card for link2sd to work with it.
I followed all the steps and procedures and it was successful. I now inserted it in my phone only to find out the memory has changed to 1.99TB . This is so confusing. Maybe I have damaged my SD or is that how it should be..?
Meanwhile, my link2sd still couldn't recognise the second partition.
please, anybody with experience on this should help me out.

If it is still working and can really accommodate data worth 1tb or even half of it, then you should be happy, instead of complaining.

How can I be happy when it did not solve my problem.
I want to be able to transfer apps to my SD as internal memory is running low, even with 1.80 TB, i still can't.
And where will I use it, it will blow up my phone and even my laptop Couldn't open it.
It's as good as useless.

If u really want to swap ur internal with the external memory on your android device, i would advice you to do it in the global environment.
Get a file explorer that can read the root of your internal memory and locate your "Vold.fstab file".
mount your device memory to read and write with that file explorer and edit the Vold.fstab file to the way you want. Always make sure to keep the original Vold.fstab file backed up or save it on another memory stick or ur pc so u dont mess up ur phone.
Please make sure you google how to swap the memory of ur exact phone memory before you try this.
This is very risky but its easy to do.
If you use this procedure u wont worry about changing your memory everything you restart the device.
Insert your sd card into another device or cpu to check what the memory shows.
It is possible that u have allocated the wrong memory size to your sd card while you tried the swapping.
Nothing is wrong with your sd card.
THe card should be atleast a class 10 sd card for the swapping to work perfectly.

I used minitool partition wizard. Inserted my SD to my laptop and located it with minitool partition wizard. I clicked on the first partition and deleted it. Then I created new one by right clicking and selecting Create.
I selected primary in the "create as" , and FAT32 in the "file system".
Then I unallocated 197.7GB from 2046GB and remaining was 1849GB. I then clicked OK.
On the second partition, I clicked on the unallocated space and selected create.
I also selected primary in the create as, and Ext2 in the file system, then OK.
I then clicked apply and waited for it to load.
It was successful.

I then installed link2sd, and granted root permission. But I didn't see the "select system for your sd", and the second partition was not found..
All I saw was 1.80TB memory.

Why haven't I thought of that.. I will order plenty SDcards from jumia. Then load them with TB's, then sell them at OLX, it will make headline.
Then in no time, Jumia will Contact me. I will partner with them, Then I will be supplying to them at a very cheap rate, then Konga. Then I will go international, partner with Souq , Ebay, Amazon.. Then I will open my own merchandise, and then be famous.....

Uninstall the app that u used for the swapping and i think that should do it.
If it doesnt then YOu have been blessed with more disk space.
Or the app may have modified ur vold.fstab file and the best way to change this is to do what i told u and restore the backup which the app must have created inside your root folder.
