I had the same problem. If your phone is root-ed you can format sd card from recovery menu. (push home+start 'till you'll go into recovery mode), or you can following this link http://androidandme.com/2009/08/news/how-to-manually-partition-your-sd-card-for-android-apps2sd/.

[Q] Can't mount sdcard CMW Recovery

Can't mount the sd card right after i try formatted it with sd formatter on the pc while running cmw recovery. Eject it on the pc and when i try to flash zip files, it gives me error : can't mount /sdcard/

Take the sdcard out of the phone and stick it into a usb cardreader, then format it using sd formatter.

Format the sd card and then copy the files you backed up to the computer maybe you did something like hitting the wrong button on somewhere...

To format external SD in your phone,
Goto, Settings - Storage - Erase SD ( make sure you are erasing your external SD, you can use the size to confirm)
Or do it in CWM recovery

microSD CARD partitioning causes problems?!!

I have used partitions on my old rooted phone where I thought the sd card had crashed because of partitioning it. Now I have removed the partition and I am still getting problems. Then I formatted my whole micro sd card using windows. Whenever I insert my sd card into windows via my phone, it asks me to format it.
Why has micro sd partitioning wrecked my sd card???!!

I am also getting the bad zip file error on android! I am beginning to believe that partitioning has destroyed my sd card permanently!

[Q] Can't mount external sd

[Q] Can't mount external sd (Rootbox ICS)
I've been using RootBox ICS 1.8 with V6 and pdroid patch (made by autopatcher 2.1.5) for a while now, everything was fine until yesterday my phone was auto powered off a few times after the battery ran out.
I can't mount the external SD card now, it's recognised by the phone and I have the option to choose "Mount SD card", but it's not actually mounting the card. When I tap it, "Preparing SD Card...." will flash for a second, then disappear without actually mounting.
CWM is unable to mount the sd card either. Taking the battery and sd card out also doesn't make any difference.
What should I do? Will reflashing the rom help, or does it sound like a hardware problem?
It did happened to me and I think the yung mmc is messed up. Have you tried using it on other phones?
UPDATE:
Okay... it seems the sd card is busted. Windows can only detect 30MB from it (it's a 32GB card). Is there anything I can do before asking the shop for warranty?

Rebuild the MBR and format the card.

Hmm... partition wizard just shows me 30.6MB no matter what I do. I guess it's time to find out whether that 5 year warranty will hold...

[Q] Wiped and formatted SD Card. Needed files for Android?

Ok so I wiped and formatted my SD Card to FAT32. I am in the reboot/recovery screen of my android with ClockworkMod and I noticed when I turned on USB Mass Storage, the SD Card is readable but there is nothing on it now. Is there any important files I am going to need to put on the SD Card for my android to function correctly on start up/running? Or will my android automatically put the correct files on the SD Card on boot? Haven't tried booting it yet lol..don't want to screw it up.

There is no need for an external SD card to boot into the OS. You can start your system without the card or with the card erased or w/e. Good luck .
