I was attempting to install LazyPanda on my phone the other day, but somehow my 32GB sd card got wiped and now it's only 102KB. Someone posted that it's fixable but never gave me any instructions on how to do so. Is there anyone here that can assist me on getting my 32GBs back? It's a SanDisk Class 10 if anyone needs to know. Thanks.
If It needs to be reformatted, mount it through twrp and reformat on pc

Tried reformatting it after it happened and it's still down next to nothing.
Try downloading a partition tool, maybe it will let you reformat the card right
Are you reformatting it in the phone or pc?
Try this HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool

This has gotten me back unallocated memory on several USB drives. Should work on a microsd

Hey guys,
Up until now I was using a SanDisk 8gb microSD card with my Nook Tablet when the SD icon had a "!" next to it and said the SD card was damaged and needed to be formatted. I've had this happen before and usually taking it out and popping it back in usually solves it, but this time it didn't work. So I tried to format it, and every time I tried it said that formatting failed.
So then I tried putting it into my computer to format it and my computer can't even recognize the card. It seems as though my NT essentially "destroyed" my SD card to where it's not even readable anymore. Thankfully I have a 16gb card from my old Fascinate I'm using now, but I'm afraid the same will happen to it before long.
Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?
Thanks!
You could try reformatting it in Linux. If you don't have access to a machine with it installed you could download a Ubuntu live CD image to do it. I've had this happen to me in the past and that worked. Do you unmount your SD before removing it?

This. Exactly. If anything is going to recognize the card at all, it will be gparted.
I completely forgot that you can also download a live disk of GParted:

i had my 8gb sd card working perfect.. all of a sudden it had stopped working.. wouldnt read at all in my phone, but in my girlfriends phone ( which isnt android ) it reads perfectly.
now, while flashing a new rom and clearing data.. i had this come up..
Formatting /sd-ext...
E:format_volume: make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

this was happening on my last sd card, after this started happening, i couldnt access anything on the card. So ive now changed to a 2gb card. havnt made an sd ext yet. so is that why ?
happened to me as well, SD got corrupted, it can be read from a pc, but cannot change the contents thus cannot re-format, luckily i can copy it, then bought a new one, problem solved, phone is working fine again.

I think this is normal for sd card without ext partition.
have you try to un-mount and mount the sd-card?
can the sc card be read from recovery?

mounting it from cwm ? nope i havnt tried that.
Im not having any troubles at the moment with this new SD Card. I just wanted to try and get the old 8gb sd working. having 2gb isnt enough for all my music and apps.
Ive formatted the old sd card. but it still shows as having 6gb.. so 2 gb missing ? AND.. i can put it in my girlfriends phone, and load it up on the computer. put anything on it i want, but it wont read in ANY phone..
Use panasonic sd formater under win.

its basically a throw away sd card now, so ill give it a shot lol.
hoping i got the right program
** tried that... didnt work. it formatted the Sd Card. but still wont read in my phone.
Also tried to Mount the SD card from Cwm. but i get
Error mounting /sdcard!
not sure if this will help anyone.. but i partitioned the sd card ages ago, all was working fine... now, after formatting, my 8gb sd card is still just nearly 6gb. so 2 gb is missing.
connect the sd card to the computer via a card reader. delete all the partitions and then format it using the fat32 system. try to read it now. if it still doesn't work try to format it using the fat system. maybe this will work.

Hey all,
Last friday i wanted to place some MP3's on the MicroSD-card in the phone, 16GB. Something went wrong (Phone shutted down) and since then the MicroSD-card isn't recognized by the phone.
If i place another MicroSD-card in the phone it works with no problems.
The MicroSD that doesn't work in the phone, does work in windows with an SD Adaptar... I formatted the card (FAT 32), won't work... Resetted my phone... won't work... I can use the card in windows normally, it writes and reads data like any other card... but my phone just won't recognize it...
Anyone has some idea?

I formatted the bad MicroSD multiple times in Windows using Minitool Partition... It says its fat32, cmd chkdsk says its fat32... I can put content on the microsd and use the content.
But the phone won't recognize it.. It's a 16gb card and if the phone does not recognize it, i can't format it... It's like he phone doesnt even know there is an microsd inserted...
A 4gb MicroSD doea work on the phone...

mayb u can try it from a friend of urs in case they have 1
I will try if i have someone with such a card... In the mean time wouldnt it be possible to make two 8GB partitions? Or 4 GBs?
If i make it an NTFS-card? Will it ask to reformat? If the phone can actually see the card... Sigh..
Try to make a ext4 partition and see if it works

Didn't work... it's like the phone has turned off the SD-Card reader when inserted with that card
It's being checked on reading errors in windows..... but so far 0..
Well... no problems found..
I checked the info of the SD-cards.. changed the serialnumber of the one not working to the one working.. i also tried to change it to change the partition ID but that does not work.. it doesnt get changed..
Try this : insert SD card, go to settings, storage, and mount SD card.

I was just gonna say, if you have cwm you can format it from there. That's actually how I fixed one of my bricked SD cards. Only cwm could format it. Partition mini tool said bad disk.
Also try this from terminal or adb:
fdisk -l /dev/block/mmcblk1 and see what it says.

For some reason TWRP wont mount my microSD (64gb) card, I thought I would ask if anyone here had a solution before I went and did something stupid.
I searched around the forum and the only thing I was able to find was someone saying that it worked for them in 2.5.0.1 but not 2.5.0.2.

Fat32 had previously failed for my so I had formatted my card into extFat which also failed to mount, but I did what you said and re-formatted it into Fat32 using Easeus Partition and it still fails... Any other suggestions?
Twrp supports exfat and that's what I use. Its possible your card is failing and needs to be replaced. I just went through that as well. Cards have a warranty so you can get one for free. There was a bad batch produced earlier this year so sandisk knows about it.

I've never been able to mount my SD in recovery either, it didn't work on S3 too. Are you able to flash files from it?, and Android recognizes it? If so, the card is fine, it's just an issue with some phones, not being able to mount it in recovery to transfer files. Sorry if I misunderstood the original question and had you doing extra stuff, I thought you meant it doesn't see the card, and can't flash files.
I have this same problem although I believe its something to do with the recovery, as TWRP won't allow me to mount the MicroSD card either
64GB SD is not longer Working
Suddenly I have a big problem with my 64GB SD.
Can no longer access it.
I tried it on Android and Win 10 but without success.
Even reformatting is neither Android nor under Win10 (Windows format SD format, Paragon and Minitool Patition Wizard)
Does anyone have an idea ??
Regards Klaus

Are you trying to access it while it is being attached to the phone or are you using an adapter to read the sd card on your computer. It could be corrupted or damaged.

So lets elaborate what's happening, the sd card can be detected, but it can no longer be accessed right? It is in read-only mode right? By any chance was it encrypted by your phone or did you manipulate any permissions that caused your sd card not to work? Have you tried scanning for drive errors?
Thank for your quick answer.

If you cannot achive to access after formatting from Windows by using Mini Partition Tool, I think your sd card is dead by hardware not software. Sory :crying:
So now I have bought a new SD and from the old one I can still use 28GB.
Many thanks for your help.

I am still trieing to fix the SD Card.
I can see the SD Card and the Folders in TWRP Recover Menu.
And some of the subfolder are broken like Dir name like !?$ยง...
When I try to delete the Direktories or to format the whole SD Card i always the same Error message:
***
E:Unknown mtp message type 1
E: rm -rf %sdcard" process end with write error =1
***
It is the second time that my SD Card makes trouble (the first time SANDisk changed the card)
so I try to find out what is wrong and how can I fixed it.
