[Q] cm10: external sd card damaged - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone
Here my short story:
Flashed cm10 to try it out.
Got a notification that my external sd card is damaged
Googled and found out that the problem is that cm10 uses another format then stock SGS 3 Firmware
Decided that this is a reason to stick with stock 4.1.1
Flashed back, but SD card is still damaged
Is there a way to use the SD card on stock rom without formating it and loose all the data?

[Q] Couldn't mount external SD Card

Hi Guys,
my problem is as follows:
My Galaxy S2 is unable to mount the external SD card. if I force it by clicking the button in the settings menu, it says preparing to mount SD card for a split second and then nothing happens....
First of all, I searched this forum for other posts. I found a few which seem to have kind of the same issue, but none of them helped me.
If there is a post with exactly the same issue, please point me to it!
I updated from CM9 to CM10 2 days ago, since exactly that moment my phone isn't able to mount the SD card anymore.
I tried to reflash CM10. I did do a full wipe, also a dalvik and a cache wipe. I tried another kernel (sihya).
The SD card as itself still works, if my S2 is attached to my PC, I'm able to read and write to the SD card.
I flashed CM10 and the Kernel from the external SD card. I tried to format the SD card (fat32), still nothing.
I think my last chance is to try out another SD card.
apprechiate any help!

try to back up your current rom to a different sd card and then flash back to the old rom to see if the old sd card works....the rom may have a bug with mounting a sd card...if all else fails just flash back to old rom and wait till its fixed...i had that issue with a rom for the inspire

External SD card not mounted after stock firmware update

Hi all. I recently upgraded to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 stock firmware and realized that my external SD card isnt mounted (even though it is inserted into my phone). I have installed several other stock firmwares from Sammobile, also tried CyanogenMod custom ROM, but external SD card isnt mounted on all of them. Is there a fix? Thanks in advance
Your sd card might be bricked. You can try formatting it with your computer via usb readers, but you will probably have to search other threads with sd card bricks, they might have a solution for you.

[Q] Inserting micro sd breaks phone external storage

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.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy SII Problem - I am freaking out

Hello,
I am really scared, because I don't know what I did
Point is I own a Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100) and a 16GB micro SD card. My phone was rooted and working fine till this morning when I decided to do more experiments. I formatted my entire phone, hoping to load the newest nightly (cyanogenmod) and 4.4.4 gapps.
But now when I put my microSD card in my adapter to format the card instead of 16GB it shows 30.6 MB in the computer and I can't access the card to copy the files.
I use a Mac 10.9.4
I want to now buy a 32 GB micro sd card and load everything on it and then flash it on the CWM I suppose. What files do I need to copy to the new micro SD card or is there a way out with the old one to make it work?
I am really confused and scared. Looking for your help.
