[Q] CWR not recognizing sd card - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i updated to stock 2.3. i put cwr 3 on and cwr wont recognize my sd card any ideas?

what about if you try cwm 2.5.1.x red? I prefer that over cwm3 anyways for touchwiz

that didnt work... bummer

you can plug it into a pc and run a error check on it and/or reformat it...if that dont work then it may be time for a new one.

When I had this happen to mine I booted the phone, unmounted the card and re-mounted it and then booted back into cwm and it "saw" the sd card again, and it hasn't happened since.

Thanks john that did the trick! dont know why it happened but now its fixed! thanks alot!!!

Glad you figured it out... i assumed you tried that already lol.

SD Card doesnt mount in Android, xrec is ok

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,

formatting did not help
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.

I have 2.3 and the card that originally came with the phone (16Gb SDHT) works fine, the thing is that it doesn't read any other card.

Same issue no clue what to do
Today i found a workarround using DISKPART (6 years later hehe)
Note that this will wipe your storage card so BACKUP !!
Hold [Win + R] and type in : diskpart (or launch cmd as admin and types: diskpart )
Every lines should be followed by enter key.
list disk
select disk *
(" * " is the number of your drive. be carefull do not choice your hard drive number which is commonly 0)
clean
create partition primary
assign
format fs fat quick
exit
Tested and work fine on windows 8 (but should work on 7, 8.1, 10)
Thanks Hope i help even 6 years later !! cheers

Unable to make bootable CWM SD, NT is bricked :(

I successfully rooted my Nook Tablet and installed CM 7. However I foolishly applied a zip update that was not compatible and now I'm stuck in a boot loop.
My CWM bootable SD card refuses to work no matter what. I've followed the steps exactly as stated :
1. Using GParted on Ubuntu
2. I selected No-Free space preceding partition while partitioning
3. 50MB
4. FAT 32
5. Boot and LBA flags
6. Copied files
I don't know what to do to to make it work. I've tried all sorts of minor variations in partitioning the card but nothing appears to make the SD card work.
Can someone please help me?
Use Adam Outler's Ubuntu recovery image. He provides step by step instructions on how to unzip the image and transfer it onto the sd card. Have to use linux so if your on a Windows pc, then go grab you a cd or usb bootable copy of Ubuntu. The restoration process takes a while and seems like it hangs in spots but have patience. It takes somewhere around 20 minutes for it to complete but in the end you will be back on stock 1.4.0, safe and sound....Good Luck.
Alright well, I managed to get CWM working. Apparently my SD Card was just fine - I just needed to make sure the NT was plugged into a computer at the same time.
Now my question is : how do I get things working again? I had previously thought that I could simply flash CM 7 again and this would fix the issue, but now I realize that for some reason CWM only read from the 50MB partition from which it booted. Changing the SD card after booting into CWM doesn't work either.
So what do I do? Thanks again..
Nevermind. What I did was pushed the recovery to the internal card so that I didn't need the SD card to boot into recovery. I then reformatted my card and dumped the CM7 zip onto it. Then reflashed CM7. Voila.

Glad to read you got it working.
Just wanted to comment on the above.
You can boot the SD version of cwm then remove the SD card. This is exactly how I installed CM7 That I'm currently running.
It didn't take the first time as cwm didn't read my SD. But after a repartition of the SD csrdz no problems.

I actually tried taking the SD card out, reformatting it and then trying to get it to read but for some reason CWM just doesn't do it. Maybe I should have tried a few more times...

Damaged SD Card Notification CM9 antp121 le noob

I just flashed antp's CM9 rom and it gave me a damaged SD card notification. My sd card seems to be working fine. I reformatted on the phone, but it would take ages and not finish at all. I tried reformatting the sd card on my pc but it still gets the message. Does it usually take this long to reformat? What can I do to fix this?
make sure you format correctly. FAT32 I believe. That could be the problem....

you will need to format via a pc. find some down time and transfer all your files off the card and have it to do a full reformat and make sure compression is set to FAT32
Well it didnt work, still get the notification, sd card wasn't having any problems though so I don't know why it says that.
I too took a bad flash.and now my SD says blank or to format..so I did(have a b/u on the computer) and several attemptes I realized its my phone not sd reading proper ..refurb rubbish here I come
I had the same issue on neos aokp. I did a clean reflash and it solved the problem. If that doesn't work flash a sense Rom and reflash back to an asop one. Definitely dont format from phone as it may cause a brick. I bricked a phone testing for chad that way. It said corrupted sd card and since it was going back I figured what the hell.

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)

8GB NT, wiped internal storage TWRP, HELP!

Ok so i was getting my Nook ready to sell, because i dont use it. accidentally wiped the internal memorycard instead of my external one. now the tablet is in some strange brick status. it will boot off an SD card with CWM, but it wont access or flash any roms. it also refuses to restore using the repart.img SD card I made. it gives me a red X and shuts off. i tried to fix the partitions with parted, but it gives me a strange error and doesnt fix anything. Im running out of ideas. tried to made adam's ubuntu restore sd card but the nook refuses to do ANYTHING with that sd card inserted, it wont even turn on. Summary: boots to CWM SD card. turns on but hangs at N symbol. the end. it looks like it successfully flashed the stock recovery back thou so now i cant even get into adb. what can i try next? i know its not done for... but im about to throw it out the window. lol.
You might consider flashing flash_stock_1.4.2.zip at https://github.com/succulent/acclaim_recovery_sdcard.
