Since I installed a lot of roms I wanted to completely wipe my I9300 so formatted the external sd card and I accidently used partitioned the sd card.
I formatted it and after that it it does show up on the file browser but it says there are 0 bytes available also when I click on the storage menu in settings it crashes the settings app.

Hello all,
I used a windows-xp to flash nAa-kernel05 and upgrade to miniCM7 2.1.3.
Once done, the phone booted properly. My SD apps work .. but the SD card does not seem to be accessible. In gallery it says: SD card blank or not present. Music player says no SD. Storage settings show no SD ..
It seems that the Fat partition is messed. How can I fix?
I'm not sure if it is related to the miniCM7 update.
Any clue?
i had similar problem ..
try to format your sd card with this software:
Code:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
I do not want to format, my data is accessible via card reader.
The sd card was running few hours ago.
I did the following (with no luck)
1- Using windows, fixed errors in fat32 partition
2- Missing "/system/xbin/parted" copied with pernissions
3- Reboot many times, wipe cache partition and dalvik
4- Edit the default capabilities xml file at the SD root, edited <boot> to have a low-case R after unlocking kernel.
Still cannot find the solution for my problem

Exactly, and also try to partition the sd card with minitool partition wizard, and then install apps in your sd, they might work better with an ext 2 partition, thats what i did, cuz my cards 8 gig, and fat is not an option.
I just tried to upgrade to 16 gb card and my phone did not like it. Random shut downs, apps did not run etc. Do I need to format the card in a special way before I can use it? I did a full clean install before trying a new card.
It may just be a dodgy card though... It works fine with my old 8 gb card.

I notice that anything I download goes to that folder. What is that? Is that on the sd card or internal memory?

You said ExSD. ExtSD is the external memory card; you can change your download location for the stock browser in settings, and the camera app will automatically detect a memory card and ask you.

U mean the internal memory? U won't need to format it m8, just delete what's on it and just flash over whats left.
No need for a format, there probably is a section in there to format it though.

Ok but why in others post the people speak about using terminal emulator or dialer code to format sd card?
Usually with rom i used cwm to format but by sgs3 this is not possible or i wrong
It is very safe and will keep your system clear. I tried. No problem

In some versions of CWM, the internal sdcard and external SD (emmc) are flip-flopped. In order to format the internal SD of my galaxy s2 using CWM, I had to choose the option to format emmc. If I chose sdcard (which should represent internal SD), it would have formatted my external micro USB. If you have an external SD, just remove it before trying this procedure so you don't wipe the wrong thing (I have made that mistake).
So basically my 16GB SD card was working fine but I was missing a few gig due to an old apps2sd partition I had for an older phone s I copied everything off deleted the ext partitions and reformatted to fat32 but now settings force close if I go to storage and recovery restarts if I try to format it? Any ideas?

Download the sd formatting tool, format it with that in your pc. If it still won't work then bin the card.

What about TWRP? Try to flash a kernel with TWRP and see if you can mount it there. Just try it

I checked this too. Intal zip>see sd card, sd ext and system folders, go to sd and is only TWRP folder but i don`t have it on sd and nothing more. If i put a rom in this folder don`t see too. I thought my sd was broken but i repaired it by bootice. Before computer cannot format it to any format exfat too. I think something is missing in file system on my card.
