Sorry I know this is a stupid question but I searched and couldn't find it. All my stuff automatically downloads to my MOGUL itself and it never asks me if I want to save to my SD card.....so how do I do that? Then if I go to memory>storage card> it says Total Storage Card Memory: Not Installed.......? Thanks
are u sure u have an sd card and if u do how much gigs
Either your SD card is not formatted or it is not seated properly and not recognized by the device...
Try removing and reinserting the card.
If that doesn't solve it try reformating the card. I use Fat32 simply for the ease of being able to stick it into any computer when I need to. (I have an 8 Gig so I have a folder with some often used files and Vista and XP drivers for the phone in case I need to sync with a new computer.

Mine didn't come with one. Once again, are you sure there's an SD card in the device? Have you physically removed it to verify?

LOL.....yea dude! I took it out to see what size it was when u asked me that question. It is a 512 MB SanDisk
I am pretty sure it is recognizing it now but I haven't had the chance to try to download any programs yet so I dont know if there will be an option to out it onto the SD card or not........will it ask me or do I have to move it to the storage card after I download it? Thanks
nvm, I got it figured out.

Hi guys,
When I insert my 4 GB memory card into Galaxy, it doesn't read it. Does anyone have an idea what is the reason. The card was recently in Nokia N82 and everything was fine.
Does your computer read it?
Tried to format it with computer or SGS2? (FAT32)
I don't want to format it, cos don't want to loose data stored on card, but i'll try different one.

Then back it up on your PC, format the card and then put it all back on the SD card.

Hello all, just got a new 16gb sd card and wondering how I should set it up. I plan on using bootmanager so I don't know if I need to partition the card or do anything else. Thanks for any advice.

Umm, just incase you have software already on it, but I would pop it in your pc, quick format to fat32, put it in your phone and you should be good to go. Unless you wish to copy over your previous recovery, then do so then install the card in to the handset.

Is formatting to FAT32 the only option for a phone? I ask because there is a transfer limit on FAT32 (around 4gb) and none on NTFS. I discovered this while trying to transfer a 6gb movie to my 32gb card. Anyone know if I can reformat to NTFS and have no ill effects?
I think for most ROMs it needs to be fat32. I was looking into formatting it to ext4, but I have not tried it yet.

I'm pretty sure if you format it to NTFS, your phone won't recognize it.
I suppose you could try it -- it shouldn't hurt anything.
FAT32 is the correct format for it.

Hmm, I guess tonight I can try but I'm thinking you're probably right. That blows. What I was trying to do was take good quality movies and convert to 3D..Which makes for around a 6gb file..no good if I can't get it on the phone tho. Whole reason I got the 32gb card. Guess I'll have to get some more music, lol
You shold try the ntfs.

Hello,
Me and my co-workers have exactly the same Phone GT-i9100, we bought exactly the same Micro SDCard, to the same provider, and Im the only one that the phone is not recognizing the SDCard. This is what I get:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/52817124/SC20120124-143033.png
We switched SDCards and again I´m the only on that the phone does not recognize the SDCard, and then I tried with an used one (4GB) my partner was using before and it worked, so Its not like my phone does not recognize ANY SDCards!!! So I dont understand how come the NEW 32SDCard is not working ONLY FOR.
Any help would be appreciated!!! Thanks in advance,
Does it work on your pc ... if not your card is probably dud

May be trying this check list:
Mount SD card
Format SD cad>Mount SD Card
Format SD cad in the other phone or PC>Mount SD Card
Try Stability Test V2.3 in the other phone
Try SD Tools V2.4 in the other phone
Dust inside the SD socket?
Have you tried formatting in your phone?
Could be you got unlucky, and got a faulty card reader in your phone. But also possible the sd card just needs to be formatted.
What kind of sd card is it? And is it formatted already?

It won´t Mount to the Phone, when I hit "Mount" it would keep on saying Mounting but it doesn´t... When I connect the phone (with the SDCard in it) to the PC the SDCard is not shown. However, it does if its in my friend´s phone.....
Im thinking it could be that my phone is rooted, unlike my friend´s. So I think I could take it back to its original ROM and try, if it doesnt work then take it to warranty cuz the SDcards work just fine in my other friend phone (which is the same one as mine, bought it together, same day, same company).
Its a: SanDisk MicroSDHC 32GB

Yes it is formatted, did it twice in my friend´s phone. I dont think its an sd card problem, its more like a feature/option thing, which I dont get to see any solution but to flash back to stock rom the phone.

Right; I mentioned the card as a POSSIBILITY, but that another possibility is that the card READER in your phone is jacked up. Root should NOT have any affect in your phone's ability to read an sd card. I have root on my phone, and it reads my class 10 16gb sd card just fine. But it may be worth it to try flashing back to stock to see if that helps. Otherwise, your only option left after that is warranty.

The thing is that it can read a 4GB micro sd that my other friend was using before, thats why I think it has something to do with my phone not reading that specific type of SDCard for some reason. I think of going back to stock because Root is the only difference between mine and my friends phone/MicroSDCard.
I´ll let you guys know my results in case someone else finds the same problem.

Sounds like it is having difficulty reading SDHC (High Capacity) cards. I think standard SD cards can get up to 8GB, so I'm betting your 4GB card is a standard micro SD, and not an SDHC. SDHC was created for 16 and 32GB.

Ok discard software related problem:
1- Flash original ROM-Kernel and try,
2- Then discard hardware related problem(in the phone and the SD card side)
Phone side;apply an electronic spray cleaner in the socket an SD Card. Use an anti-static wrist strap
3- SD card side; use software tools i recommended before in several SD cards.
Just to let u guys know, it was a hardware problem. I had to get a new phone.
Thanks,

Cant tell if its blur from the camera or is that label printed at an angle?
Either way, its more important where you bought it, not its appearance. If its ebay then thats an immediate red flag.
Use h2testw.exe to test the card on windows. You probably need a card reader / phone that has usb mass storage mode.
This will tell you if its fake / faulty.
Essentially, fake cards are smaller (cheaper) but programmed to look bigger, so when you hit its true capacity, it starts over writing the older files.... hence these issues.
H2testw will tell you - http://db.tt/b1g0gTPZ

I have a 1 gig sd card I know 1 gig lol. It was in a company phone I got anyways. it worked fine for past 13 months but now i cant mount it. phone does not recognize it and recovery comes up failed when I try to access it through it. you think its a bad sd card or bad sd card reader in phone? I do not have another phone to test the card in. If/When I buy a new card and it still does not recognize it how do I go about loading a rom? As of right now know back ups and did a System refresh stuck on start up screen on phone . All of this started after I did the sdcard mod on one of the roms beans I think.
Thanks

I would wager a bad SD card. Those things are known to fail.

If you are talking about the SD card swap mod..... It would require much much more room than 1gig. That might be your entire problem.
Can you take the SD card to a computer via a card reader (you might need an adapter to make it full size) and format it? If you can just load up beans19 on it and flash it. It should work if that's the issue. just don't try the SD swap with less than an 8gig SD card next time
