[Q] Cant Format SD Card - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Q Ive been using owains final rom for the past few weeks with the usual random reboots but no other probs,3 days ago i installed slades rom with the fixes for internet and dual touch everything was fine until today i awoke to my fone having rebooted but now have the error damaged sd card,i cant seem to format the sd on the fone,ive even tried to format on pc using partition wizard,it seems i cant access my sd card at all,any advice would be greatly appreciated,,thanks

try reinstall ur sd card on ur pc..right click on my computer icon,select manage..

format with the option in xrecovery menu

tried x recovery,,and pc,,neither seem able to locate my sd card,,

Try testing in another phone. If does not work, buy a new, because its corrupted.

hey buddy connect it to ur pc using card reader n use the s/w 'Test Disk' .....it'll most probably detect the sd n format it to fat32......If it doesnt work pls do say....

sorry mate but not sure what sw test disk is??

SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem

I'm having a problem with my 8GB sandisk card. My Htc Legend keeps giving me a pop up in the notification blind that says SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem. I've done some searching on google and notice people are having this problem with their Desires and other various android devices.
However I haven't come across a fix. I noticed one Legend owner had it occur after a restore of data from sd card. I'm having a feeling this happened to me as well since I got the OTA firmware upgrade yesterday. And I'm having the problem with the sd card today and I had the option to save date to sd. Today I unchecked it since I started using another card and I'm afraid of that one getting ruined.
Is there a way to fix my other card as I don't want to just throw away a perfectly fine 8GB card.
I've tried reformating in phone and pc. Have tried it in other phones. PC doesn't read it. Blackberry 8900 will not boot with it inserted and freezes if inserted after boot. myTouch 3G slide gives the same error. And does nothing when formatting.
i had this when i first got my new sd card and the phone basically to get it working i just went into the phone and formatted it via the android os then it mounted fine settings > storage > format (you may have to unmount first if it is still mounted )

I've tried this numerous times and it does not do anything. Does not show the option to unmount.
Hi all,
I guess my problem is very similar. Using an DHD with a 8 GB SD Card...
I did a factory restore including to wipe all data on SD card.
the DHD was rebooting and now I get the message Blank SD Card - SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem. in the notification bar.
is there any App I can restore my SD card? made full backup so ****ting on data just wana bring it back working.
Card gets not mounted... when I hit the message in notification bar it ask me to format card - I did multiple times with no success.
Anyone knows how to restore the card? Hope it's not gone for ever :-(
Thanks for help
same problem here, i guess a new sd card is due
Following I found out regarding the issue"SD card Blank/unsuported filesystem":
Just read my update here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11353140
there are 2 ways to fix this (one of them I can confirm restored the filesystem on my SD card)
Kind Regards,

PS.: thanks @ GOOGLE
PS.PS.: maybe a mod can merge the threads as I think this is a general problem with HTC phones

The sd card usually goes to raw format. Raw format supported software can help you extract the files and then you can use the full format option in windows 7, quick format checkbox unchecked.

omg now my phone cant boot up stuck at the android logo. again.
Use a microsd adaptor so that you can access your card using a card reader. If you have to borrow it from a friend. The same thing happened to me and I just copied everything to my PC, formatted the card, put it back in the phone, and just for assurance, formatted it using the custom recovery. Now everything works perfectly fine.
yep. use a microsd card adaptor. if you don't have one then buy.
i think your problem is on sd the sd card.
i inserted a broken sd card once on my phone, one time it boots up and sometimes it wont. but when it do boots up, my phone freezes whenever i try to access the contents of that sd card.
What SD card you have in your phone?
Good investment should be Sandisk or Lexar 8 Gb 4x.

micro sd problem strange

recently i have formatted my toshiba class 4 microsd card 8gb with cwm recovery and now wether it is on the pc via adapter or in then phone or with the usb cable in the phone i can see the data very well but when i try to transfer something it is extremely slow and the sd card gets disconnected and recconencts all the time without aborting the process.it is working without rr or anything in my phone and it just is very slow when i move apps to sd. the sd is fat 32 and tried formatting from cmd/sd formatter/phone and still the same. no bad sectors in the card and no fs errors i cant think of anything...
soz for the textwall but cant describe this situation otherwise.

You may have removed some drivers when formatting it

And if that is the case any possible fix??
Had a similar problem some time ago and I fixed it by re-formating, re-partitioning and so on with EaseUS Partition Master (http://www.partition-tool.com/personal.htm - it's free).
If I remember correctly, I had to do it twice since after the first time it still gave me problems.
Hope this helps!
Unfortunately i tried that program too and right now i dont even have the ex4 partition as i dont need it.i am using the phone normally thats why i dont go for service but i just cant transfer files from pc...

Try flashing CWM form my signature and retry formatting with it. Other CWM may be buggy.

I use version 5.0.2 do u think there are good chances to fix my problem?? Cause it will be an issue to copy all my sd card and then transfer it back..
Any new ideas?? I tried the old cwm recovery but still the same
Try Amon_Ra recovery or download a gparted iso, reboot your computer and start in live mode and format it

Try taking your sd card out and remounting it....sometimes cards get corrupted so you may need to open cmd and run chkdsk /X /F (sd card drive letter)

Corrupted MicroSD after Adopting as internal

I have an LG g4 Beat (h735ar) i just updated it to MM and i found out online that i could adopt a MicroSD card as internal, which is nice since the phone comes with 8GB of storage and almost 5 are taken by the system, so i bught a kingston 32gb class 10 micro SD card and via ADB i formated it as internal storage, at first everything was fine, i could install apps on it, but after 2 days when i woke up and went to grab my phone, some apps that were installed on the sd card and were running on the background started to stop working, so i decided to reboot the phone, after it rebooted the sd card was not longer readable by the phone it shows a notification that says "Cannot use SD card. Tap to set up for use." i tried tapping on it, it prompts me to format it as portable, and when i try to do it, i doesnt work, it goes up to 20% and then closes, i tried formatting the sd card on windows via multiple ways and programs (tried DISKPART with the command "clean all", also tried sd formatter and EasyUS partition master but they didnt work)i tried on ubuntu, also didnt work, i tried using gparted and partition wizard but they didnt work neither, so i thought the SD was defective and went where i bought it, i got a replacement, i did exactly the same with the new one and it happened againt (probably not the smartest idea, but i didnt have any reason to think it would happen again), i've been trying everything i found online and nothing works, now aparently i have to decrypt it by using a key located in /data/misc/vold, but at first the key wasnt there, now it just appeared, but now the problem is that my ubuntu machine just doesnt recognize it, it shows when i open Disks, but it doesnt seem to be mounted, and i cant fix it.
Does someone know another way to fix it? i could just get a new one probably and not set it up as internal, but i'd like to fix it mostly because im kinda embarassed to have to return a second sd card.
Had the same problem.Took the same steps.Luckily I had copied the sdcard contents to my computer.Factory reset didn't help.This is what worked.I have a samsung phone ,so I used odin to reinstall the stock rom.The sdcard was immediately recognized.I copied the files from computer to sd.All is right!!!
