How to remove ext partition from sdcard

[marajuu]

I formatted my sd and i noticed that it didn't remove the 512 mb ext partition. How can i remove it?

marajuu,
If your phone doesn't remove the ext partition from your SDcard, you will have to remove it manually. If you have linux(live CD or installed version) install GParted( sudo apt-get install gparted ), search for your SDcard and you will see the 2 partitions. Delete both(make backup before), create a FAT32 partition and copy your backuped data back. That's it

Or with easeus partition manager home Edition for Windows :-)

I think there is a option in recovery to delete sd partition,, check that!!
formatting the sd just removes the files. it doesn't merge the partitions!!

I had the same problem but found a simpler workaround. Settings>SD card and phone storage>Unmount SD card. Once the SD card is unmounted, select Format SD Card. This will format and merge all partitions into a single FAT32 partition.

YOU WILL LOSE ALL DATA so back up everything that you need. This worked out easier for me since I had just partitioned the card to EXT and FAT32 and didn't have any data in it.
