Hi guys
I came across a strange issue today and can not find any information about it on the web. Basically i formatted my SD Card via CWM and since that my device is not recognising it. Mounting in CWM using windows 7 it tells me I need to format it before using it. So I do and then Windows recognises the SD Card and I can put stuff on it, even though Clockworkmod does not recognises it still and when I boot into my ROM it does not mount. Any help would be great full.
SD Card info: 8GB Sandisk Class 4

Hey Everyone,
I'm having a slight problem with my new SD card. I just bought a new 16 GB SanDisk Class 2 High Capacity Micro-SD card. Unfortunately though, my Xperia X10a is not recognizing the card. When I insert the card into my phone, the phone acts like there is no SD card installed at all. It's been properly formatted to FAT32 and my laptop recognizes it fine. My phone recognizes my old SD card, a 4 GB PNY Class 4 High Capacity Micro-SD card just fine, but refuses to recognize the new SD card. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?
Thanks!
Format it on the phone....not on the computer.
Settings->SD Card....Unmount if it is mounted....and Format from that menu.
It needs to partition the drive itself properly.
I wish I could do that. But the phone doesnt even recognize that there is an SD card in the phone. It says that the SD card is missing even when I put the new SD card in.
Or if you have everything backed up....start from scratch.
Download and install SEUS from Sony. And reflash from scratch using SEUS.
If you had any app2SDcard app or any apps loaded on your old sdcard, they could be preventing any new SDCard from being added.
Thanks for replying.
I've tried going back to stock but it still seems to be not working. Stock firmware still fails to recognize that an SD card has been inserted.
Is the card any thinner than the old one? If so, add a piece of tape or piece of paper to the back of it, so it fits in the phone snuggly.
When you do a full repair using SEUS and install with the SDCard in the phone, it should auto format the card during the the reinstallation of stock 2.1
Did you actually reinstall using SEUS with the SDCard inside?
Otherwise trade in your new card for another card (make and model should be fine) this time....do not stick the card in your computer. First place it needs to go is in the phone.
Actually...an old post I read on another forum, one guy was successful after he stuck the SDCard in his camera, and formatted the card from the camera...and he was unsuccessfull when he originally formatted the card in his computer.
Thanks so much for helping. Somehow, I managed to get it working. Turns out that the cluster size of my SD card was set to auto, which caused it to have cluster sizes that the phone couldnt read. After reformatting it to 4 kb clusters and FAT32, it was recognized by the phone. Thank you so much!
Hi Everyone,
I have recently purchased a secondhand HTC Legend,
and a new Kingston 16GB Class 4 Micro SDHC Card.
Android 2.2 Froyo is Installed
(Blayo's Froyo Rom)
(I have a 256MB MicroSD & 4GB Micro SDHC Card that I have tested and they work fine.)
When I write to the SD Card, such as take a picture or download an app from the market, the phone says "SD Card Unexpectedly Removed".
I have tried:
Reformatting the SD Card on Windows and on the Phone via Clockworkmod recovery. (My Phone is Rooted)
Scanning the SD Card via Windows Error Checking
chkdsk via command prompt
Scanning for errors via Drive Restore Pro
Buying a new Sandisk 16GB Class 4 Micro SDHC Card - Same Error.
Is there anything else that I can do?
Any advice that can be given is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
dont be a fool it seems that its the rom's fault it might not support the file system of your sd cards.Dont keep buying new ones....just go back to your stock rom
Thank you for your reply.
I flashed the stock Froyo rom, but the problem still persisted.
After some more research I found that downgrading to 2.1 can resolve the issue, so I tried it and it did.
My only question now: Is there anyway to make this work in the stock Froyo rom?
Hi Friends,
I am using Karbonn A9 (Without Rooted) & micro SD Card - 4GB class 4. I can transfer the files fine b/w PC & Card using USB cable. But, now-a-days, the files copied to sd card doesn't appear after usb unplugged from PC.
Also, the files deleted from PC, appears on SD Card, when removed. Please help me.
Have you tried to format your sd card?
I have have never had problems with class 4 sd cards until recently. I have had to buy all class 10 sd card for all of my devices that I have upgraded to ICS/JB. I don't know why, but I started getting all sort of problems flashing, saving, FC's. It was really weird. I didn't realize that it was the sd card until I switched the sd card in my tablet (with was already a class 10) to my phone. With worked fine in my phone, then my tablet started acting crazy.
this happen because u already click fix permission.. don't ever choose fix permission in cwm.. u might getting fc..

Sorry for late reply. Surprisingly, i didn't got email notifications for your posts, so I am unaware of it.
I had done formatting several time in XP, but still the problem persists. Also, Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't work...
Hi guys, first of all, congratulations on the excellent work!!!
I have this problem: I installed Neutrino Rom 2.9 on my motorola Atrix (at&t), but after the installation, the system seems not recognize my external sd card.
I try remounting it from the recovery, but the recovery can`t do it either.
I think the problem starts when the folder /system is formatted (if I manually do the format, the recovery stops mounting the sd card since that moment)
When I plug the phone to the computer the sd card is neither recognized. Only shows the internal sd card.
Anybody has the same problem? there exists any solution?
Thanks!
Quite frankly, it's kinda hard to imagine formatting /system would do this. It seems more likely your SD card is just borked somehow.
I'd put it in a card reader and plug it into the computer and run some filesystem checks if I were you.
I don't think the card is the problem. The phone recognizes it perfectly before flash the rom. Other roms that I tried also recognizes it.
Maybe i have to format the SD card to a specific filesystem to neutrino can mount it? Now is formatted in fat32.
Thanks!

Ok so I have never heard of this one before and I have tried looking for an answer.
My S2 works perfect when it has no micro sd inserted but the moment I put in a micro sd card the phone will boot ok but then it will not recognize any of the phone external storage (the 16gb bit) I get an mtp application has stopped error and I cannot access anything with any file managers not internal storage, external storage, or micro sd. The micro sd doesn't even show up and the rest show all directories as empty. I have this problem exactly the same if I flash a custom rom or stock rom rooted or unrooted it makes no difference. Anyone have any ideas? I have tried different sd cards but they all cause the same problem. I have tried reformatting the sd card also.
Flash dorimanx kernel version for the ROM you're on and test. Also formatting int sd card may help with this. Bk up you're data. format it and test.
