[Q] SD Card not mounted? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My android refuses to see my SD Card it seems.
I can access it, copy etc etc on a computer, but on the phone it says that I need to insert a SD Card in order to mount it.
Any solutions?

Might be worth backing it up and re formatting I had similar issue and eventually my laptop stopped recognising it too. Turned out the SD was corrupt so I'd back it up regardless.

copy the contents onto your computer, format the SD card on your evo, connect your evo to your computer, and copy everything back onto your phone

[Q] Wifi Error / SD Card Huawei m835

I am lost for words on this lol, ok here is the problem.
NOT ROOTED
Huawei m835 Phone
Metro PCS Carrier
Android 2.2 froyo
2gig transcend SD
Now, The issue I am having is my wifi wont work or my sd card wont work. Its one or the other. The phone uses a easy wifi app that will automatically turn on, now I have tried to turn it on manually via wifi settings but It tries to turn on then says error. Now this only happens with the SD card in the phone, if the sd card is not in the phone it works like a gem. The sd card work previously before i reset the phone back to sq one because wifi stopped.
I have tested sd on my pc and it works great, i see the space there.
I have a Evo Shift 4g (rooted) and popped the transcend sd to be partioned via recovery menu. I popped my orginal card in, evo shift working great still.. I pop sd into Huawei and it works.
Phone now works great, I check space on sd card via settings menu and i got my space back. But heres the kicker, I go to my camera and it tells me my sd card isnt there, I go back to the settings and its gone. Now i cant seem to fix it, I tried several formats of the SD card, several factory sets on the Huawei. I tried to do the Evo Shift partion trick thing I did, and nothing.
SD card still works on pc
Can some one please help with this.
Update, I was looking at running applications to close or uninstall and i notice alot of them have 0.00 bytes, even my android system?
Try inserting a new standard sd card !! Or maybe scan for any virus or errors in sd card...it might solve the prob...

I did a error scan via pc properties menu. Nothing, found. doesnt work. However i put this sd card into my evo shift, formatted it, partioned it, and it worked fine on the evo shift, but refuses to work right on the Huawei :/
Try a new sd card or take it from a friend to try it once...if still it doesn't work it might be a hardware prob...
Sent from my HTC Wildfire
I have already tried that, it works in a different phone but refuses to work on the huawei, after severl resets, perhaps if I flash a new rom on phone? Is it possible to root phone with no sd card?
Update: ok so I had phone sitting over night last night and it died with sd card in, now I booted it up and realized it prepared my sd card and now its mounted. So it works and so does wifi?...
Can explain why it is now workn

I solved the problem when I didn't use my SD card as an internal storage.
May be that will help you

RE: Blank SD Card
Try reformatting with HP Format tool - h t t p://www.mediafire.com/?eshgpfym21kzesv
Install the program then format your card to Fat32 via adapter if possible and not in phone.
Then format the card with the phone if necessary.
If this doesn't work then it sounds like your card is goosed Sorry
It didn't work, thanks for trying to help though

External SD Card won't mount?

So I had a 16 gb external sd card in my rezound, realized that I would like more space so I bought a 32 gb card. The new card worked for about a week and no longer works. I have an sd card exploring app and it sees the files on the card but my phone does not even recognize the card is inserted.
Another thing to mention is that with the old card, my phone would not display the available space on it or give me the options to unmount and mount. Now when I put both of these cards in an sd card reader and insert them into my desktop the computer does not see that a card has been inserted. I have checked it with other mini SDs that I have and the computer sees them, so I don't know what gives! Any ideas??
P.S. I am running on the ICS 3.14.605.10 RUU
Sounds like you have a bad card, can you format it?

Well the weird thing is that both the stock and the card I bought are doing the same thing. And I tried formatting, but since I can't view the cards on my computer or phone I have no way of formatting.

If you have TWRP or Amon, mount USB storage and format from your computer.

I have the exact same problem. I tried switching cards and formatted the new one before I put everything on it. It still is missing after every reboot...Annoying, but at least it's still there....
Not sure if this is the issue but it may help to try:
If you are on GB firmware and running an ICS rom, download and flash this in recovery. It is a GB firmware patch and after you flash it, sd card mounting problems are fixed.

SD Card Unexpectedly Unmounted

I'm having an issue with a brand new sd card not mounting to the phone. It was working before, but I went to connect the phone to a computer so I could move files over to the sd card in the phone. When I disconnected the phone from the computer, I got a pop up on the phone saying the sd card was unmounted. The card mounts to other phones but will not mount on the LG V10. Anybody have issues with the sd card unmounting and if not, what should I do? I've tried reformatting the sd card and still doesn't mount. I'm out of ideas.
