Anyone know how to wipe the Sd card? The reason is that over time, many apps created many folders on my sd card and i want to start fresh for 2.1. So yea...
Put it in a card reader and format it, or mount it and format it.

for an example,
megatron rom requires format of ext partition on SD card.
is it really necessary?
from my understanding you are formatting for A2SD capability.
if I don;'t plan on using SD card as APP space, can I just skip the format step?
thx
Few Questions Rearding Micros SD
So That New Rom can b loaded. i think so
It is not necessary to format and partition your sd card just because a rom has a2sd
capabilities.
If you don't format sd card, a2sd will not be activated.
However, if you want to use a2sd, you will have to format & partition sd card as per instructions.
I have installed various roms (which instructs to format & partition sd card, since they have got a2sd in them) without partitioning my sd card, and have had no problems with them ... *touchwood*...so far
thanks,
I will keep it unformatted then.
there's something wrong with it, some files i can't delete, any way to format?
Try formatting it through a computer.
OR
If you do a factory reset from stock recovery, it will format the SD card also.
But then you have to setup all the things again

ty for helpers
If you didnot copy any file to Computer and format sd card you still have recovery install and if you are using any offline dictionary then you should move dictionary data folder to Computer before formating sd card.
Any files that are on your SD card will be gone when you format it, so copy over anything you do not want to lose. Formatting your SD card will not get rid of your custom recovery.
Recovery doesn't lost when you format sd card

My phone is asking me to format my sd card out of the blue. I have a 32gb Kingtson, I have a lot of crucial data. I have not yet formatted the sd card. I've tried conventional ways of getting my data like using GETDATABACK FAT32 but it did not work. I have used other but no to avail.
Does anyone know what is the best method to recover files from a sd card that was working but now it is not?
Go to settings>storage and unmount microsd. Remove the microsd feom ur phone. Use a microSD card adapter ... a full size sd card that u can put ur microsd card into and will fit into your pc. Click and drag important data from microsd onto desktop. Then fat32 format the microsd and reload the data onto it. Done.
Or u can upload all data to dropbox and then format amnd reinstall... but it may take a while.
