SD Card says unavailable - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have looked through numerous threads and haven't seen this anywhere. After figuring out that you had to push the SD card in with some elongated device, it always says it's unavailable..... Am I missing something? It's only a 2GB card and is in all the way.

need more data. sdcard is the internal memory. Sdcard2is external card.
what rom you using, how are you trying to see it. try esfile explorer

Installed on Micro SD card only?

I have searched and I have not been able to find my answer. I have looked in the settings and I have changed the settings.
But it doesn't matter how I set it up it always install the files onto the internal memory .
I have a Micro SD card that I would like to install most of the programs
Is there a way to install the programs onto the external Micro SD card or a move them there after you download them ?
I remember reading a thread or two about moving apps to the SD card ... have you tried searching on "move apps to SD card"?
Heh! The grass is always greener on the other side isn't it?
The easiest solution to your problem would be for you to install CyanogenMod. It likes to install everything on the external SD card--so much so that people resort to hacking /system/etc/vold.fstab to get it to use the internal SD card instead.
You might care to look at that file on your ROM (I'm assuming its VEGAn-5.1.1 or one of the other Froyo-based ROMs). The vold program uses that file to determine where disks should be mounted. You can switch only the device paths in that file to get vold to mount it the way you want it--external SD card as /sdcard and the internal SD card as /sdcard2.
If you just want to manually move files from place to place, use Root Explorer.

Moving apps to SD Card

I'm on UnNamed 1.3.1, with an 8GB SD Card in there (a 32gb is on my x-mas list).
I go into the settings to try and move things to my SD card, I click on the move, but it doesn't actually move them. Whether they're listed as installed on the phone or on SD Card, it still resides on the phone memory.
If my internal memory is full, it tells me my sd card is full.
The camera app stores the photos on my sd card just fine, so the phone is seeing the external sd...
Halp?
bro, the same thing happened to me. the internal storage on your phone is also called an SD Card. So usually when Android refers to the SD Card, it means its internal storage. I use Astro file manager to move things, there's 'SD Card' and then 'ext_SD Card'. You can copy/paste from one to the other in there, it's really easy.

Problems with the internal SD

Hello, my old Huawei Ascend G300 has an internal 2 Gb SD.
I would like to know if it is possible that the phone recognizes this memory so that it will allow me to use this space to install applications. I would prefer not to reformat the phone. Is there any easy way to do it?
I also have another problem with this internal SD. I have an external SD and the phone goes crazy: does not display the internal SD, it is as if this memory does not exist. It ES File Explorer sometimes shows me the two SD, but the majority of times, when I want to access the internal SD I redirected to the external SD. I have to use Root Explorer to access the internal SD and ES File Explorer to access the external SD card.
Can you help me with all these problems, please?
Mobile is already very old and would prefer to be able to fix everything without formatting.
It has CM9.
Thanks a lot.

Emulated SD card I'd like to remove

I was attempting to root my Alcatel 9007t tablet, so I could move apps to my SD card, unsuccessfully.
So I ended up following some instructions and ended up emulating an SD card on my internal, or something or the other
It renamed my actual SD card to something else
So now, I have rooted my phone, I believe, but using link2sd card I can now move my apps, but I get an error on a certain few apps.
I can't link the data, or what have you, to the SD card, and I think its because of this emulated SD storage
Regardless, I would like to remove the emulated SD storage, and rename my SD card to something normal.
Getting to root this thing was difficult, so I would not want to start this whole thing over.
Or if I could get link2sd to link my data to my SD card , that would be excellent.
I am moderate noob so pls hlp
Footnote: no I cannot link to SD thru my storage settings, maybe is there somehow I can do that. I just want to link or move app data to SD card. This is from a downloaded apk that is making kit difficult. The app seemed to install to SD card, but the data is on the emulated SD on the internal
Halp
You will have issues as apps are not made to be on the sdcard and some apps even block the option.

OK but my tablet is rooted now and I can do it mostly with no problem.
I just want to rename and unemulate false SD card on internal and get it back to normal

My internal sd card is inaccessible, and possibly encrypted?

upgraded to marshmallow and had both the internal sd and external sd as one (using it as storage)
This turned out to be a bad item and the external sd failed (possibly due to too many reads and rights)
I noticed my internal sd card stopped being able to install apps. On further inspection in Root Explorer external sd card is a folder, but 'sdcard' almost looks like an inaccessible link/normal everyday file. Pressing it in REplorer says that it's not mounted. Yet it is the internal sd card...I can also see how much space its components are taking up under 'storage' in Android OS.
My question is how do I fix this? Most apps get installed to internal sd. I have read on XDA that sometimes kitkat would make inaccessible/encrypt the internal sd card, how do I diagnose this is my problem ,and if I find out it is,how do I fix it?
