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.

Try Amon_Ra recovery or download a gparted iso, reboot your computer and start in live mode and format it

I dont know if there are a topic with this but i dont find any.
I create a second partition for link2sd, a ext3 partition, its work but today i changed the rom and my second partition disappear, from my phone and my pc.
I used MiniTool Partition Wizard and not recognize the second partition, only appear the first, my 4GB SD only show 3GB and no way to restore the full 4GB because MiniTool and other programs that i used dont show the ext3 partition to delete it, HEEEEEEEEELEP. I WANT TO RESTORE MY SD AND GET BACK THE 4GB.
You're using a Card Reader and NOT connecting the phone via USB right?
If your phone can read the card, format it using CWM. That'll solve the issue.

I use the phone via USB but thanks for your help, i'll buy a card reader to try that way. But i try to format via CWM and show the same 3GB. But anyway, i'll try whit a Card Reader then comment here, thanks a lot.
cheers mate i have a solution
flash a stock rom with odin
yes thats all your partition will be wiped off and your card will show 4GB again
p.s. : i have learnt this from personel experience though in my case i didnt want the partition to get wiped
ninja edit: and dont buy that card reader ... buy yourself a coke instead
how this happen????!!
This happen during when u wan to change ROM you will make a full wipe that why your partition gone..
how to prevent this happen??
Its easy before you make a full wipe make sure you eject out your SD card ..and after that you can full wipe...after full wipe its done put back your SD card... and flash the new Zip. file
Hello guys
Okay here is my problem:
I have a HTC Incredible S it's rooted and S-off.
no problem there.
but when I try to mount my sd card it starts re-booting until it don't have anymore power.
when I re charges my phone it does the same thing.
I have tried to format my SD card and it worked for a while (a month or so) and then it began again today when it ran out of power.
ohh and the battery gets really hot when charging or re-booting nonstop.
so here is my question then:
Have any of you guys tried same thing?
and if yes then how did you handle it?
is there anything I can do?
thanks for your time guys
The Linux kernel may crash mounting a corrupt file-system. Reformat your SDcard, and if it happens again too soon, buy a new one. It's quite likely it's gone bad. You may also see if you can find some SDcard diagnostics you can run on your PC testing the card, if you've got a reader.

try another sd card and see if it works perfectly or not
if other sd card works fine then might be ur sdcard has gone bad and has bad sectors and try reformatting it once more and if it still does not work then it needs to be replaced
if other sd card also doesn't work then try factory reset and check again if problem is corrected or not

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!!!

what is the reason you put a new card?
something happened to your old one?

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?

Wanted more space... Interestingly though the smaller card (4GB) does let me boot but OS still doesnt detect it.

the STOCK ROM just hangs and the settings crash when i attempt to access the Storage section.

i cant help but think its a formatting issue... but unsure why
from the CWM logs
I:Can't partition unsafe device: /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
I:Can't format unknown volume: /external_sd
so unsure what the hell is going on

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.

Hi, new guy with english problems here, be gentle
So basically I lost access to any kind of storage on my SGS2 running CM10.1. Here's what happened. I was using internal and sd for a long time, then, as I needed my SDHC elsewhere i removed it. Nothing was lost as all data was stored internally. BUT. After formatting SD in FAT32 and putting it back everything crashed. Apps are refusing to work, demanding an SD card. Files Manager says that folder was lost. All of them. First thing I wanted to do was to flash CM once again, a newer NB but my PC does not read internal storage either, and putting it in sd doesn't do me any good as cwm doesn't see it also. CM can access internal, so i flashed the same version of CM once again - the only one i got there. Nothing changed. I'm a bit lost and seek any advice
U checked if u really format it with Fat32?
CHEERS
Sent from my GT-I9100 running with RootBox
Sure. Also I formatted it with SDFormatter, thanks to this CWM can mount it and format by itself, but OS does not respond anyway

Hi there,
I have a HTC wildfire [buzz] -s off, I rooted it, got cm7 on it. Now the problem is, the SD-card worked perfectly, and after a while the phone doesn't recognize my SD-card anymore. At some point it eats 4g away from my partitionated 8g SD. Then suddenly i have no SD at all anymore atleast on software cm7 running, however when I boot into recoverymode i can only have acces to that sd card while in usb mass storage device thru my pc. But can't install any apps since I was gonna install 'gapps' when i noticed SD was not recognized by cm7.... I formated mulitple times using sd-format and minitool partion a few times with different partitions one fat-32 other ext2. now 4g formatted just fat 32.
Can anybody give me a work around? I'm fairly new to rooting. So keep it a bit simple if possible.
Thanks and kind regards.
