Lol or he could post a it in the actual cm7 thread
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
just reflash new SE stock firmware to avoid any headed. and re-do from scratch...
My experience says that you will need to reformat your SD card. Even though stock and xrecovery can see it there is something wrong with it. If you mount it via USB does windows say there is a problem that it wants to repair (if you are using windows)?
I was posting here cose this is question about developing, If I posted in wrong section please move thread to right place.
I do reflash with seus at beginning - in 2.1 is working normally , but after changed system in xrecovery card dissapeard. (2 times - seus + different CM 6). And I also reformat card (fat32). I`m using Windows XP (but have also openSUSE).
Card was empty after format - so windows dont see any problems.
Make of my card is Patriot.
I install app - Multi Mount SD and when i mount card, PC normally see it. Only CM have problem with that.
Format the SD card and erase any other partition -if you have any.
I dont have any partitions, but i will try to delete and create main partition when i came back home (I need linux to do that, in work i have only windows xp). I tried one more time to format card (fat32) and nothing. Strange problem. Card work normally in memory reader, and in mass storage mode in X10.
In terminal on mount i dont see sdcard. I want to try mount it manually but i dont know what`s name of device is memory card. (sda1 , sda2 or...). Did anyone know (or want to check it in mount?) ?
I see card0 it is cardreader from X10 ?

You don't need Linux, there's a free Windows Program (MiniTool Partition Wizard).
But since you haven't partitioned your card in the past, I doubt that this will solve your issue.
Try backing up your data and formatting the SD card.
Then insert it in the phone, see if it works are copy your data back.
Good luck!
Also, you can mount the SD card in xRecovery and see if it works.
I formatted card 2 or 3 times with no results. In recovery card is working normally - i install CM in xrec from this card

search before posting and please post in correct section/thread...
I searching with google and nothing found, but i try to search xda one more time. I tried repartitioning and nothing.
Update.
Searched and nothing found. DooMLoRD nothing to do with that - card will work only with these roms?
UPDATE!
For everyone with card problems - format sd with XRECOVERY on X10 not with PC. Card is visible on Ahchotjan.
Thanks for help.

Here's a simple guide/solution if anyone who have problems with their microsdcard
1.Blank Sdcard notification
If u have partition on ur sdcard and u switch from 2.1 to 2.2, u need to reformat the card. Because 2.2 does not need the 2nd partition.
When u had partition your sdcard on 2.1 rom and u get blank notification, please do a reboot. it will eliminate the meassge.
ps:i do recommend using ext2 as 2nd partition and use link2sd as u can manually select the apps, dalvik-cache files and the libs files
2.Unrecognised, Failed to read sdcard, damage sdcard and etc
Required a laptop/computer assistance
Please try this method before you try anything else. usually this will solve all the problem you facing
1.Go to my computer and right click on your sdcard icon
2.Select properties and then click on the Tools tab
3.Click on error checking/check now
4.Remember to tick on the automatic fix and then click start
this will required 10 to 20 minute, depending on the size of your sdcard.
3.Last resort
Format your sdcard using your x10 or pc.
if both method cant be using, re-partition your sdcard using MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition 6.0. set it as primary and using FAT32
Sdcard reading and writing speed slow?
For non-rooted and rooted user
Mount your sdcard from your pc and use this Defraggler and defrag your sdcard. credit to 28spawn
For rooted user only
go to this thread increase SD card performance(new Flashable zips), credit to KInG GaME
PS:This troubleshooting method does not 100% will work but since it works for me most of the time, so i wanted to share out. Hope I wont offend anyone.
Mod, if this thread is useless, please delete it and sorry for the trouble.
Thanks for the thread. Tried it on my sd card because it shows blank sd card after I partitioned it into fat32 and ext3 for miui cobrato rom but it didn't work. Nice share anyway.
opps.. thanks for replying n reminding me. i forget to put tis. after u partition your card, did u reboot? btw, there no nd to do partition for 2.2 onwards

Nope, I only put in the partitioned sd card into the phone and started it. I partitioned using parted magic. But for MIUI roms, it's needed to partition into ext3 for the ap2sd+ to work.
same problem here. i just can't seem to get the sd card to work after flashing custom 2.2 or 2.3 roms. but the sd card work just fine on any custom 2.1 roms.
i'm currently on ThGo v1.5.5e. this rom works great.
I'm using EWjet 2.3.4x. I plugged the sdcard into my pc, used mini partition tool to reduce the size of fat32 partition and making 800mb of unallocated space at the end of disk. Then I created a new partition (primary ext3) of 800mb, applied and removed the sdcard from pc.
When I plug it on x10 it says that my sdcard is empty.
I already tried to reboot twice and it keeping saying that is empty.
Link2SD says that I don't have a second partition, but I created a 800mb ext3 partition.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

sorry for late reply. i tot this thread is dead. thinking wanna ask mod to delete it
well, i tried formating it to fat32 through windows and it worked. but what boggles me is that only some 2.3 roms can detect my sd card. thgo and ewjet works just fine. any miui roms and others doesn't seem to find the sd card. it just says sd card not present or unmounted sd card.
well, i had never tried using any miui rom b4 but from what i read, its best after flashing the miui rom, it it recommended to format the sdcard
I have recently upgrade to android 2.3.3 and am using EWJET as a rom.
I cannot access the SD once Android OS has booted. All apps and the system/settings says SD Card isn't mounted. Tried multiple installs, nothing works.
All 2.1/2.2 Roms are fine.
If i tap back during start-up and access xrecovery I have normal access to the SDcard and can flash packages etc. So the phone is able to access the card ok.
My SD card is the 8gb that came with the phone and isnt partitioned in anyway.
However in the past I did have it partitioned, but not now. Incase I am installing 2.3.3 and the rom wrong, ill tell you my steps.
Factory Firmware 2.1 flashed
rooted, busybox and recovery installed
Flashed X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_only_kernel_baseband
then install the EWJET rom as per his instructions..
I pray I am only doing the above steps wrong as I desperately want the SD working on 2.3.3.
Any help would be appreciated.

you try pulling it out and blowing on it like an old nes game...
jk smiles but have you tried perhaps throwing the sd into a computer and just formatting with different cluster sizes or in general formatting the card. Might need to use an adapter.
Happen the same thing to me but with wolfbreaks rom... some people told me to re-flash the rom but it didnt work. The funny thing is the the sd card will work on any other device, and any other sd card will work on the phone... havent try re-formatting the card cauze i dont have the adapter but it should work

you might want to get an adapter. A while back i tried setting up a sd-ext partition on a 4gig card and long story short the only way i was able to run a format that gave me back the 4gigs was throwing it into an adapter
Had the same thing when I updated with stock-2.3.3.... At the time I had it partitioned in 2 partitions...
I connected the phone then with my pc, and there it was, alive and well.... So I backed up the entire card, that is, the first partition, where all my data were; I powered off the phone, took it out, found a adapter, deleted the 2nd partition with Partition Wizard Home Edition Minitool, made the sd-card 1 partition only, formatted that partition, and then I copied all my backed-up data back to the card
Then I put the card back in the phone, booted and voila: the card was recognized again by 2.3.3....! and now it functions ok!
Hope this helps, greetz, good luck,

Anything new on this?
for me it is a little different. The card that came with the phone works fine with the GB update, the thing is that I got another phone, this one came with a 4 Gb card so I took the one in the x10 with all my pics and put it in my new phone and put the other new card in the x10 but it doesn't recognize it...
I've tried with 2 different cards, in xRec i can read it, back up, etc, but once in android its like there's nothing there. Tried formatting it with no results....
What could it be that it reads the original x10 card and no other?
Ive got no idea, but its annoying. Im gonna have to go back to 2.1 which sucks.
We need to some how figure out whats causing this. Ive tried everything.
2.3 seems to be the problem.

Hello all,
I've facing this problem. "Damaged SDcard- You may have to reformat!". I don't know how the sd-card got damaged.
How can i re-use the SD-card (external sdcard) because i tried so far:
- Windows format - FAT32, NTFS (with no succes)
- Phone format from recovery and normal format.
- format from card reader - when tries to format it, unmounts the card automatically.
- i've tried many programs, search many forums, but not solution.
The card was received with the phone: 32 GB microsdhc (class 4) Team.
When i enter recovery i can se the folders from the ex-sd-card (i can see from windows/linux too), but i can delete/read/copy them.
Anyone have idee what to do next?

after i hit "X", waits for a while and after that unmount the sd-card, without deleting/formating the card (after i remount it the card has the same amount of space it had before the opperation).
So... no luck. But thaks anyway.

I would say if Windows 7 cannot format nor read it, it's toasted. **** happens, and memory cards are more than prone to it.

Just chill, also happened with me and no chance of getting it to work
for me it happened after running S2E but i think a virus caused the problem or the life of sd card was finished? don't know surly but its a bad luck nothing more.
Why post on a thread that has been dead for six months? This forum is messy enough without adding to the problem...
Hi guys
I have searched for the answer to this one and it's now giving me a headache.
I put in a brand new sandisk 16 GB SD card. But now when I put ANY SD card in the phone fails to boot.
Looking through CWM it can't even mount the card there.. I have tried NTFS FAT32 (formatted on laptop) but still nothing. The SD CARD still works and is detected in my laptop. I have even tried the original SD CARD the phone was shipped with and nothing.
Even went back to stock ROM and although it booted, it still couldn't detect the SD card and the media process kept on crashing.
ANY ideas much appreciated!!!

did you check in settings > under device, in "storage" > sdcard
if it appears there as an unknown format
if it did, use "format sd card" in the device itself

maybe your sd slot is broken?
since as you stated:
- works on pc
- same happens with an older working card
- not working in stock or cwm
did your phone fell?
water damage maybe?
did something happen that made you switch to a different sdcard?

do you have a friend or relative with a galaxy s2 or similar samsung device?
i would insert both sd cards in their phone, format them using the setting menu and test again
sorry i could not help you solve the problem, but it seems hardware related, broken sd slot?

SD Card won't mount - FIXED
I'm just trying to get the word out on the fix that worked for me. NONE of the fixes I have searched for have worked. On Cyanogenmod 10, I just could NOT get the SD Card to mount - External SD would mount, but not the internal SD (on HTC VIVID). Out of frustration, I erased the system and SD card from with in the OS Settings Menu (Setting>Backup & Reset>Factory Data Reset - including SD Erase). When I rebooted, I was going to reload a different ROM....but lo and behold...my SD Cards are both working correctly. Please note that no other Formatting worked (ie from the bootloader). One last note, to get the External SD to talk via USB to the PC, I have to put the unit into MTP mode as a Media Device instead of Mass USB Storage.

I agree - I tried many things including re-formatting / remove -> reinstall disk partition using Windows PC / Ubutntu (gparted), reinstalling the ROM / original firmware etc. None of these worked.
I put the card into different Android phones and tablets - by chance, one of them (a Galaxy Tab 2) managed to detect the card. I used this tablet to format the card (and all other cards which didn't work with the phone) - now they all work!
So, the only way is to find an Android device which can detect the "faulty" card and format it.

Don't seem to be broken hardware, because the fault can be repaired. It seems that Android doesn't agree with formatting / partition of some SD cards.

Don't seem to be broken hardware, because the fault can be repaired. It seems that Android doesn't agree with formatting / partition of some SD cards.

Hello everybody,
I'm new to this forum and let me say that all the hard work is done here it's just awesome My Xperia X10 is alive again thanks to the USA Generic Kernel+ROM I found here.
I'd checked many threads related to my issue but I did not find a similar one so that's the reason I'm posting (in case someone could say it'S been posted already!). The problem is the following:
The phone won't recognize the SD Card nor the xRecovery tool. I wiped everything and started again with the generic rom 2.3 I found here in order to check if it was a problem related to the customized rom I had before (which name I cannot remember right now). Now with this stock rom, the problem persists, but it's not a hardware issue I'm totally sure of that, because my cousin gave me this phone and he used the SDCard without problems the day he gave it to me (he listened to music, downloaded photos, etc); he removed his sdcard (if you ask :silly
Any ideas? People says in forums that it's something related to 2.3 Android Version, so if that's the case, I want to downgrade (any good roms out there, this is an Xperia x10a.
Thanks in advance! <3
BUMP!
Bumping this thread! (following the rules)
Thank you.
Can you access the SD card in a PC?
Does the SD card have a second partition?
Check with Mini Tool Partition Manager that the SD card is formatted as FAT32 with only one partition.

I fixed it four days ago; I just had to format the SD in a Blackberry/Nokia/Samsung smartphone and voila!
