Hi
Yesterday I install CM7.It works well but when I input my 32gb sd card it doesnt recognize (also i tried it with my 4gb card and it works)and also when i plug it to my computer it just only charching I cant see the partititons of nook.
Do you know anything about it?
I'm not 100% sure about the SD card, you could try booting into recovery, then wipe cache & dalvik factory reset then reinstall your CM7.
For the USB problem, I've noticed some computers won't recognize your device if auto mount is turned off and/or USB debugging. So try switching those settings around and hopefully that will work.
Also make sure you plug your device into 2.0 usb port in your PC, as 3.0 port won't make it.

I have spent all my time to solve this problem and find out a way.
*SD CARD PROBLEM (SANDISK 32GB CLASS 4 CARD)
It happens all Sandisk Cards,I also tried to mount an 2gb sandisc card,it didint mount to CM7 too like 32gb version.
Here my solution.
Make CWM to your card,and let it repartition to your card.
Download Minitool Partition Wizard Home (FREE)
Find your partition in the program (70mb FAT32 the other unlocated)
Change the 70mb part size to (resize) 29.7gb
It will seen by the Nook
USB problem:
make update.zip(build.prop) file by using CWM,its instructed somewhere in the forum in the 55thpage CM7 feedback tread

So I recently Romed my Viewsonic G Tablet.
I followed this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245
Everything is fine..except when I put a SD card into the SD slot the Tablet doesn't recognize it. It just tells the the internal Space not the SD card space.
I used ZPad Clean v3.0 for the ROM and I used cwmod_internal.zip instead of cwmod_microsd.zip
I then used my friend's G Tablet and put the SD card in it..It read it just fine.
So I wanted to test it out while it was rooted. (to double check)
I then Rooted my friends GTablet also. I rooted it the same way but the only change I did was have a SD card in the tablet the whole time. Still the same problem.
Is there any way to fix it? DO i need to use cwmod_microsd.zip....instead of cwmod_internal.zip??
I'm really confused if someone can help me that would be amazing!
Is there an APP that tells you the storage of your installed SD Cards?
Thank you
You mean flashed the rom when you say romed. Have you checked to make sure the sdcard is getting mounted? If there is no data on it you might try reformatting it in either of the g tabs. If you can get to a shell you might reboot, and look at the last 20 lines or so of dmesg. Insert the card and take another look at dmesg and see if the kernel is picking up the insert at all. If so it is likely just a mounting issue.

Well I reformatted it and I mounted it. Still nothing..How can I check if the kernel is picking up the SD card at all?
Would changing Kernel's fix the problem? I'm just using the Stock Kernel that the ROM came with.
Thanks
You were able to reformat and mount it via the g tablet with the zpad software on it? And even having done that it doesn't list it as having any free space?

Not yet. So should I go to Storage and devices and unmount and format the SD card via the tab?
Try it on the tablet.
If I reformat the SD card wouldn't I loose the root? or no right because I did external
My understanding of root is that it modifies files on your tab/phone, not an external sd card. Worst case you lose root and reroot the device.

When I tap click mount it says 11.3 gigs available.
when i unmount it says unavailable.
The card is only 8GB.
It should be internal storage 16GB.
SD card like 8gb.
Not sure what's going on.
If I format I think I'll wipe it all.
Ok, there is an internal 16GB, yes. Of which you have 11GB free. The SD card you're having the issue with is a separate uSD 8GB, right?
I'm meaning for you to try to mount/unmount or possibly format the 8GB SD card. If it isn't showing at all then the issue is something beyond it simply not being mounted.

Yeah. It's a separate card that I plugged into it.
Was there ever a fix/resolution for this? I am having the same issue.
Everyone,
I've written this a bunch of times -- but here's one more:
/sdcard -- internal memory of the tablet
/sdcard2 -- miniSD card in the external slot
/usbdisk -- USB key slot
Put your recovery folder and update.zip on /sdcard, turn off the tablet, the press power
and volume + to initiate standard recovery.
Second, put your recovery folder and update.zip on a miniSD card. Edit the command file
in the recovery folder with Notepad to change the location from /sdcard to /sdcard2 and
save it with the name "command" (NO .txt or other file extension). Then boot
recovery with power/volume + and the OS will use the sdcard (assuming you don't
have a live recovery/update.zip file in /sdcard).
Third, if you can boot recovery to CWM but can get your ROM to work, go in recovery to
the mount menu and go down to the mount USB memory option and choose it.
Then plug your connector cable from the miniSB port to your PC. When you plug into
your PC an Explorer window should open and you should have a drive letter representing
the G-Tablet (it's G: on mine) on you menu. You now can select that
letter and you have access to your tablet memory (/sdcard). I've even had a time or two
when not a single file showed!!! I added update.zip and recovery and loaded
a ROM!
The tablet boot process apparently checks /SDCARD. If it doesn't find a recovery files there
it does the same check if you have a miniSD external card installed. The large USB slot is not
useable for booting or recovery so far as I have determined or read.
I hope this helps you.

I own a visio tablet which I rooted with vegan and clockwork. I have a 32GB SD card but when I check the storage is says 12GB on SD and 2GB on internal. The tablet should have 16GB + my 32GB. Anyone have an idea why it wont come up?
Is the fix above the best way to take care of this issue?
Can anyone kindly help? I've read through a lot of the links and can't find anything. I have rooted my device with clockworm v8, Vegan, got the market place to work and now I just need to figure out what is going on with my 32GB SD card. Should I format it with FAT32? How can I get it to be recognized?
Thanks in advance!
Formatting to Fat32 would be a good start ;-)
SD Card Dilemma
I have the VEGAn-TAB-v1.0.0B5.1 installed in my G-Tab and, with the exception of the SD card issue, things are just peachy! I've read the entire thread but, even with butchconners description, I seem to still be missing something. Let me try to structure this a bit differently...
1. The sdcard2 DOES show up in ifilemanager (with only one file, LOST.DIR) but NOT in SETTINGS. Since it does not appear in SETTINGS, there is no way to mount or dismount it (although if it shows up in the file manager and I can see the file on it, one might infer that it is already mounted.)
2. Even though I can see it in ifilemanager, I'm not so sure how I can actually USE it. It seems to me that the system would need to know (via SETTINGS) that it is there and I would have to tell the system where to put my files (i.e., sdcard or sdcard2).
3. When I connect my G-Tab to my Win7 PC, I only have access to sdcard AND NOT sdcard2. This seems a bit unusual since I have always had access to the removable sd card AND NOT the system memory on all my other devices (EVO, Blackberry, etc.)
My goal is to be able to set applications (some or all) to use the sdcard2 (at least for data) and be able to access it via the usb connection to my PC. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?...Has a solution for this already been posted somewhere?
Many thanks.
I am not an expert but the pc sees(?) only sdcard(internal) but no sdcard2(microsd).
Right, Guys?
I am now able to see both sdcard1 and sdcard2 using pershoots latest oc kernal released 4/25 when hooking up gtab via usb to computer. I am using Vegan tab gingeredition.
where does one find that kernel and how do i install it? Im running vegan ginger right nowand have the same sd card issue.
thanks!
Hi all, I bought yesterday 32Gb Kingston Class 4 microSDHC card. Now my phone is very unstable with this memory. I mean, sometimes it can't mount it, sometimes it shows its empty, formatting almost hangs phone, some apps hang phone (apps on sd). Looks like the phone doesn't want to eat this big memory too well.
I already tried soft reset, and dalvik cache deleting. Didn't help.
microSD is formatted into Fat32 and 32Kb clusters in windows with HP Formatting tool.
If I try to reformat with phone, nothing seems to happen....
It can work perfectly for a 20min, but if I try to turn many apps on and off, it will reboot. After what it doesn't see apps on SD card. wtf? But after complete reboot, it'll work again for a some time.
I have 2.2 Android from elelinux.
If I use my old 2Gb card, everything works just great.
Any ideas?
P.S
What does this recovery mode SD card formatting? Maybe I should try this one?
I have ClockworkMod Recovery 2.5.0.7. There are some interesting options like..
What ARE these?
1. Format Cache
2. Format SD card
3. Format sd-ext
4. Wipe Cache Partition
P.P.S LOL I can't turn off phone. It is rebooting always. Wtf?

According to the HTC website, our Hero's should support 32GB.
But that's as far as my knowledge on your issue goes. Just ordered a 32GB Class 4 SanDisk card myself, so when its delivered (hopefully Friday) I'll let you know how it performs.
Just an update for you, mine came in the post yesterday and it seems to work fine with my phone. Loaded it with 20gb of music and it runs fine.
Yep should run fine with 32gb sd cart
i'm having many of the same issues with my 32gb. had a 16gb before, and all was well.
now the phone randomly goes back to charge only when i have it plugged into PC as disk drive. i'm having trouble making backups in recovery too as it says its randomly unreadable in the middle of backing up. also, and seemingly most frustrating, is it is refusing to actually transfer files from PC to SD. i will plug in as disk drive and move all files without issue. however, when i eject disk drive and switch back to charge only mode (or simply unplug), none of the files have actually been moved to my device. they are simply missing entirely when i open any file manager.
i've tried everything. formatting on device, formatting through W7 (quick and full), and formatting through the official sdcard.org tool. nothing helps.
Try this
If u have a linux PC, u will know about gparted, I guess.
Do this: boot to ur favourite linux distro. plug the sd card to ur pc using a card reader. open gparted. click tools and then click new partition table. it will wipe everything from the card.
once done, just setup the partitions as u want for fat, ext or whatever. i was having a htc tattoo troubling me with a 16GB card but now its okay.
I've looked at the other threads on this but, none seem to match my problem.
I've a 16 GB MicroSD card in my S2. S2 is not-rooted running stock ROM.
This card used to mount ok. It no longer will.
In Settings->Storage, space reported is unavailable (because it's not mounted).
I can run Format SD Card option which returns quickly.
Running Mount SD Card, it's says Mount in Progress but it never completes.
If I put the card into an SD card reader, it looks fine. FAT32 formatted card, with approx 16GB available.
Any ideas?

I had similar problems with two other sd cards.
First running without any problem, and then suddenly the message appeared that the sd card is empty or not connected.
In both cases, the sd card was broken.
But in my cases, the sd card could not be used in a USB adapter by PC either.
As the sd cards were nearly new, I could make a warranty replacement and now I have got a card which works fine for about two months.
You can check this, by switching the sd card into another phone.
And use another sd card in your phone.
If the other card will work in your phone and your sd card will have issues in the other phone too, replace the broken sd card.
Good luck !
P.S.: You should format the sd card with your phone and not by your PC.
Other MicroSD Card works

Thanks for the response. I should have said that another 4GB card worked in the phone ok. This did lead me to think it was a card problem. However, he fact it works via a PC indicates otherwise.
Will try it in another phone.
Just throw it away?
Has anyone seen this before i.e. not working in phone but ok in SD reader?
If so, did you manage to resurrect it? Or is it time to throw it out?

Try this. Settings>Application>Development
Check usb debugging.
Connect phone to pc. In notification bar click "usb connected" message, and click on "connect usb storage" button. You won't see the sd card mounted in pc!
Now disconnect phone, reboot. It might mount
See if there's any luck.
Since you're not rooted, solutions are quite limited in numbers

Tried disconnecting and rebooting in 2 senses of the word
1. Hitting the disconnect usb storage button on screen
2. unplugging the usb cable.
Unfortunately, neither worked.
i'm having this problem now both on internal and external sdcard... it wont even mount on recovery... i'll try see if i can this done.. Windows damages everything.. i made a cleanup of the sdcard and a format..
I tried 3 different SD cards from 3 different cameras, none worked on my tablet, all worked on vaio laptop. Is my port damaged or am I missing something here?
make sure the format is FAT32
hmm..I'm not in the same country as my laptop now, I'll check when back home
I am thinking of buying an S1 but I read a comments on another sitre about the SD card that indicates you cannot move apps to the card (as you can with most other android devices).
Is this true? If so would it better to get a 32GB S1?
Try to plug the camera in via the USB host function, should work.
Sometimes I have to reboot the device with the sd-card pre inserted before it will recognize it. Maybe that might work?
On off suggestion didn't work...will check if fat 32 tomorrow
I bought a SDXC 128GB card for my tablet. I formated it with FAT32 and it works like a charm.
Happened to me too... fat32 formatted and all, still wouldnt detect it. I had to put it in and out until i finally saw the message on screen about the sd card being connected =/
Dear XDA'ers.
I've had an S2 for a while now and I've been running CM9 since early alpha. Recently I decided to buy an SD card (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005FY61EK/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00) so that I can use it to store my movies. After I got it, I realised that MoboPlayer or AirDroid couldn't detect the SD card and the only way I could put something on it was through a physical USB cable. Now, today I wanted to try something but I found out that my phone doesn't show the SD card at all anymore. I tried taking it out and putting it back in several times as well as flashing the latest CM9 nightly but nothing happened. The only apparent difference that I can see when I put the SD card in is that in the Storage section in Settings, under the SD card tab, I have an option "Mount SD Card" but when I press it, it says preparing SD card yet nothing happens.
Is the SD card fried or what's wrong with it?
I've had the SD card for less than a week so its hard to believe that it's dead already.
Have you got a micro SD card reader that you could use to see if the card is fried? Connect it to your computer, and if it shows up it isn't fried. Also check the format of the card to make sure it is in FAT32 format.

Ahh, I know the problem now (I completely forgot about this).
I formated it to NTFS just before I stopped working since I assumed that it works the same way a USB does (but clearly, I was wrong).
I'll format it back and see what's what.
Have u tried going into settings/memory/left softkey/storage config and select the only options there is?
have you tried other system folders?
i had the same problem before, I found out my sd card mounted as a system folder called "emmc" I'm using resurrection remix rom 2.3
Yep just fixed mine today by downloading https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.qbanin.binder&hl=en if you are unsure of what to select just see the screenshots i followed this selections and it now works fine
Alright, I've fixed it.
Basically, I had formatted it to NTFS because otherwise it gave me some error about file (the file was around 4 gb's and it acted this way with anything over 3) being too big when I was trying to copy it onto the SD card. Now that someone said it has to be in FAT32, I formatted it back and now it works perfectly.
Thanks to everyone who helped me.
