when i was doing it,
when it comes to the partition 4, it shows FF in default not 07)
Creating entry for GPT partition #4 (MBR partition #4)
Enter an MBR hex code (default FF): 07
Set the bootable flag? (Y/N): y
how to handle this...?
1. Delete the old entry and create a new entry at GPT#4.
sudo gdisk /dev/disk0
p
d
4
n
4
(Put the correct Start value here)
(Put the correct End value here)
0700
p
w
y
2. You will need to reboot after each change, because the disk you are booted from is the one being modified. Each reboot will rebuild disk0s4 using the start/end you entered.
3. Run the dd command - sudo dd if=/dev/rdisk0s4 count=1 2>/dev/null | hexdump -C and check that the first line contains "R.NTFS".
4. If you want to pose here for recording purposes, each of these iterations, please do so. It may be better that the output of 1,2,3 gets recorded here.
5. This is a tedious process and you want to check after the second 'p'rint command that it looks reasonable, before the 'w'rite and 'y'es to confirm.
Here is an example...
Command (? for help): d
Partition number (1-4): 4
Command (? for help): n
Partition number (4-128, default 4): 4
First sector (34-1954210086, default = 1454210080) or {+-}size{KMGTP}: 1454211072
Last sector (1454211072-1954210086, default = 1954210086) or {+-}size{KMGTP}: 1954209791
Current type is 'Apple HFS/HFS+'
Hex code or GUID (L to show codes, Enter = AF00): 0700
Changed type of partition to 'Microsoft basic data'

i have done the steps you told me, but seems i still get it wrong..
i did both , i ran "dd", there is "R.NTFS"
and when i type in the first sector, it wont allow me to do so, so i followed the default one..
here is the GRT:

Re: Bootcamp missing after expanding partitionin response to Adrianching
Did you look at the other thread/discussion where Testdisk and Gdisk are used with the steps to recreate the GPT and check each entry? If not, please take a look.
This looks like the best candidate
MS Data 196718600 343476224 146757625
but it wasn't allowed me to type in 196718600 for the first sector...
what should i do now.....
This is what it should look like. Notice the gap between 343476031 (where Recovery HD ends) and 343476224 (start of NTFS).
