Just to clarify because of the disagreement, you do not need an sd card, but a pc/mac/etc.. is required AFAIK

No need of external Micro SD card. Internal sd card (storage space) is build in but is also no necessary to root if you flash root kernel via Odin. It is directly flashed to system partitions.
External sd was needed in S2 while rooting thru fake recovery.

no sdcard is needed for rooting..I came across this problem in CWM once where I was unable to mount the internal sdcard so I was unable to flash anything..if that happens then you can try using an sdcard..worked TWICE for me!!

Hey,
I'm currently running SuperNexus Build2, any like in any other AOSP rom, i cannot use my SD card. It is detected in the settings, but can't do anything else with it. I can use it CWM without problems, though.
I guess it is formatted in EXFAT, which isn't supported by AOSP roms.
What is the easiest way to reformat it? Should I format it in FAT32? I don't have any adapter, hope it won't be necessary. I bet it was asked many times before, but can't find anything relevant...
Format this card via phone in Settings - storage. It will be reformator in FAT32 filety system readable by phone. Backup all your data first from this sd.

I don't see such option available in settings. How about formatting external card via CWM? Any programs for W7 so I can do it via USB?
No,I formatted the card to fat 32, but it didn't solve the problem...

I dont think Supernexus really supports SD Cards. Sure it appears there as available storage, but since all Google Nexus devices dont support external SD Cards, im guessing the AOSP doesnt include any code for formatting/using the cards. This is all left for device manufacturers and developers to implement... just a guess.
We would need someone with the expertise such as Faryaab to add real support for external cards.

hi all
when i go into recovery,it does not show my internal sd.only ext sd.
any idea why.
andy
Are you rooted?
Are you on about the CWM or do you mean the stock recovery without root?
hi
was rooted,but all back to stock now.just tried to put jb zip on,then seen no internal sd.
andy
You need to root the phone first mate. Then once you have got CWM then you will have access to the internal memory and the external sd card partions of your phone mate.
Hope this help

Try to put sd card into a card reader. Can you delete that files on your PC? If not, try check disk (your sd card on PC) and after it finished you will be either able to delete those files or that files will no longer be there. I had that problem and solved it that way.
Plug phone into pc and format that way

It's not necessary to format whole sd card. It's better first to thy what I suggested. It worked for me.
I really need help my galaxy player 4.0 wont boot i was running cyanogenmod 10.1 no problem and one day it wouldn't turn on.
I have tried stock rom but it will only boot if I have a micro sd card inserted and it still says no sd card. cwm will read an external sd but not the internal. help!
Your issue make me remember an old bug in Cyanogenmod where the internal and external sdcards would be swapped.
Did you make a backup of /efs and your original stock ROM/Kernel/Recovery before upgrading to cm 10.1?
Upgrading to CM 10.1 converted your partitions to another format so you won't be able to go back to stock without flashing the original partitions using Odin or Heimdall.

It also deleted everything on my sd cards, so I dont have backups but I do have my EFS backup. I already did a full restore using odin and I made sure to check "re partition" I can get it to boot into recovery should I try to flash cyanogenmod again?

No I don't get any errors when I boot into recovery but my SD cards are switched.
It says it can't mount my external SD card (which is actually my internal) and when I boot into the OS it says I have no sd cards.

Have you checked your vold.fstab? Maybe some configuration isn't right about it.

Looks good for me so far but I don't understand why it is swapped. Don't forget that we use a new layout that /sdcard is sdcard0 and external is sdcard1 (/emmc)

Its not swapped when I boot into the OS only in recovery and it won't read the real internal SD card no matter what.

Hmm the only thing I could say is if your computer can recognize it, too do a backup and wipe it.

Guys
I have problem with access to SD Card (SD Card is OK).
Application that I moved to SD Card works perfect. I can create folder with ES File Explorer but I can't delete it, also Sygic cannot access SD Card. Is any solution for it?

If you need to delete a file or a folder. Try using the default file manager for the phone
