Hi, my atrix sd slot just stopped working :S anyone has had this problem?
Also the main problem is the slot stopped working before i even rooted... now i cant find any guides about how to root that doesnt need external sd, or also flashing rom without external sd... i cant even install tenfars recovery since i need to delete some file so it doesnt overwrites the stock one and i cant cause i cant acces root explorer etc etc... its a circle of problems... anyolne has an idea or has same problem? also any idea if the roms ca be flashed on internal sd?
thanks
try a hard reset to see if that fixes it? worked for me on FP reader. Otherwise try to get it replaced.
you can flash roms using the internal storage and you can root without sd-ext. if you plug in using USB for file transfer, when you mount, it should mount your internal anyhow.
if on 2.3.4 use this method to unlock: http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/motorola-atrix-hacks/3039-root-2-3-4-using-fastboot.html
Oh alright tnks i managed to root it finally! one more question so i dont mess up my phone... i was unlocked on .83 but since i thought i wasnt gonna be able to root and install custom roms i went with official .91 of att, so theres anyway to install a custom rom still? or im stuck on this?

Hi all,
I just installed Auxora 2.3.1.0, and everything is functioning fine with the phone except for the fact that the phone doesn't recognize that any storage is present on the phone. Under settings > SD and phone storage it says "Unavailable" for both SD and phone storage where it would normally show how much space is available.
Any idea how to fix this?
Not quite sure if I'm posting this in the right place... I would have asked it in the thread where I downloaded the ROM but I'm not allowed to post there yet.
Thanks in advance
i know 2.2.1 rom had a sd problem for me and i was on 2.2.1 port but from there i flashed another kernel over (deAD hourse) and it solved my problem
I would try that, but I have no way of flashing a new kernel because I can't put anything on the internal storage because the phone can't access it..
I'm now able to successfully mount the SD to USB while I'm in recovery mode so I can transfer files onto the SD, but no matter what I am unable to get the phone to recognize either the internal or external SDs unless I'm using stock 2.1 update-1...
Anybody have a solution to this?
This problem is getting ridiculous for me... the phone won't recognize the phone storage or sd card on any kernel or ROM other than stock 2.1. I've tried Bionix, Auxura, and just finished flashing Deodexed_KA7 one of these that will allow me to use my phones storage is 2.1.
I also tried applying the fix found in this thread, and it didn't work.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can get fix this??? I really don't want to be stuck with stock 2.1 anymore
I am rooting my daughters Droid Eris. I used the app from the market and flashed Cyanogen 7. Everything went well until I tried to start restoring her apps and found that the phone is saying there is no sd card. When I go into setting to mount it it is greyed out and wont do anything. the gallery and rom manager also say there is no sd card. the card I am using is not partitioned. I tried taking a partitioned sd out of my old Cliq and putting it in and then it says it has a unsupported system or something like that but I did notice that the mount sd in settings was no longer greyed out. If I reboot into recovery it will recognize the card because it lists what is on it. I have searched everything I can find and cant find any answers. Oh, also, when I plug in the usb to the computer it does nothing then either. Any Ideas??
Go into recovery since her phone can read the card from there and reformat the card. You may also want to wipe data and dalvik and reflash the rom to be on the safe side.
Make sure that you backup anything currently on the SD card before formatting it, which you can do from the usb-ms toggle option in recovery. You will need to copy the rom file back to the phone after formatting the card which can be done from this option as well.
There should be an android.secured folder on the SD card. Delete that. You don't want it on there so make sure you don't copy it back to the card (it will come back after the first boot and it can then be left alone, I like to delete mine before each flash though to avoid possible problems.)
EDIT - DONT FORGET TO FLASH GAPPS RIGHT AFTER FLASH THE ROM! ALL CM7 ROMS REQUIRE THIS!
Let me know if you have any problems

Totally of the topic BUT I'm Selling a fully rooted Droid Eris running CM7 port ROM for $90...interested PM me.
Trying to root my cousins Vibrant. It's rooted, and i flashed CWM from Rom manager, but for some reason on the computer it doesn't show the root of the sd card, no android related junk, and then when I try and flash a custom rom it doesn't show the zips on cwm and if i click /sd it errors and goes back.
Edit: nevermind, figured out when it's in mass storage it shows two different ones.

lol i dont know how to move it except just post new thread there
Sounds like you need a new SD card. Some of the stock cards don't play well with MTD based ROMs. I would probably get a Class 10 microSD card (be careful if you get 32gb, there are known problems with some of them)
I bought http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-microSDHC-Class-Memory-Adapter/dp/B0058GH4U0/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1335980268&sr=8-12 and have had no problems at all after!
You are flashing the THS build 2 first right? You have to flash that rom, then reboot to recovery by holding down the power button wile your in the OS and select the recovery option after that you'll be in a compatible version of CWM. Flash AOKP M5 from there.
Hey guys,
Had a question, i have downloaded several roms to my ext SD card, my phone sees them and everything while i'm in recovery. My problem however, is that when i try to install one of the roms it just freezes up and doesn't move past the psrogress bar. I was running Clockwork recovery, and thats where the problem started, I was curious if i might had disabled something there. I switched to TWRP and still the same thing is happening. I would love to see if anyone has had this issue and if so if someone could help me out. side note i can flash roms just flash roms from my internal memory just fine..
thanks in advance...
