I Just partitioned my sd card, but usb-toggle n recovery mode never works for me (using latest lg-drivers) is it ok to use a card reader ?
Ofcourse it is.

Try to plug in USB your phone when it is in normal mode, install mem card drivers and then boot in to recovery try to toggle.

Hey guys recently I was on my computer and had my SD card mounted and I pressed unmount to pull it out and all was fine until a message came up saying SD card was damaged. I rebooted the phone and its still saying this. I know I didn't pull it out early. Now its asking to format card to fix it. When I press it nothing happens. I tried connecting it to my computer to format but it can't read the card. Luckily I had an adapter that'd let my card go in seperately from my phone but that wont work either. Please tell me what I can do??

Ok thank you ill try that now. This never happened before. I really need that data on that card. Will there be a way to recover it?
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
if u able to boot into xrecovery and mount the usb storage, then i think u can accest into the sdcard via pc. then make a full copy to your pc.
wish you luck ^^

I have rooted my phone. Installed a custom ROM. Now my sd card is loaded with unwanted things. Wat shoud I do? Copy/paste the openrecovery folder to a comp. Format SD card and then copy that folder back to sd? Or update.zip again?
Anybody?

Thanks, had a similar problem and wanted to know this as well.
Remember to move all apps to phone memory before format.

What about update.zip? It is needed anymore on root of the sd card?

You can simply delete the update.zip file without any problems.

You need to keep update.zip on root of sdcard. It doesnt enter recovery mode if you not copy it back.

For such stuff, using the Droid Tool is the best way:

Format it with your android phone, or in recovery, not with your PC.

You must flash sdcard-swicth.zip to solve this problem.

So how can I use the internal storage? I'm so stupid that I had forgot to backup the internal storage before I flashed the ROM...
I flashed cwm in Odin and rooted with team epic root tool but when I try to flash a Rom in cwm my sd card doesn't show up when I enter choose zip from sd card. My internal phone does. Help!

yea, niether is mine, I was wondering if it had anything to do with the size, its a 32g? I had been planing on posting a question here soon to ask about it? I always have to use my phone as the only choice when looking in CWM?
I am having the same problem. My ext sd is not showing in cwm. My version is 5.5.0.4. The same thing when doing backups. Only internal.

What version are you running? I did the - x.x.x.3 and was able to backup to SD Card just fine yesterday. Although I used a temporary boot to preserve stock recovery to perform it although that shouldn't make a difference. I know some people have been talking about the format of the SD Card, apparently exFAT is no good but please look into that more before taking my word for it.

If your ext sd card is 64+ gig, it is likely formatted exfat which does not work with TWRP 2.7.x.x
In this case you'll need to remove the card and format in a PC with a third party utility that forces a fat32 format.
