Ok, first of all--I'm a total noob here, so please bare with me...my vibrant (stock 2.1--rooted, but I've been too "chicken" to try flashing any other ROMs...) has suddenly started giving me a message in the notif bar saying "internal sd card damaged" and then it will tell me "can not mount external sd card--mount point absent or incorrect"; I've tried connecting my phone to my pc with no luck--I've not tried to reformat my internal sd card yet, simply b/c I've got about 9gb full of photos/video of my toddler on there, and I just can't erase all of it without seeing if there is any way to recover them/fix my internal sd card, if that is even possible--? I've tried taking out the external card to see if I can connect pc to phone to access internal sd card and I still can't get it to work...please let me know what I need to do??
Please, anyone...?
I've been having trouble with the sd card in my new RAZR. Just this morning I noticed that I had a new notification "Blank SD Card - SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem."
If I clicked the notification it gave me the option to format but it would never format the card. I was still able to mount the drive to my pc so I made a backup of all the files on the card to my computer.
I did quite a bit of searching on the forum and eventually came across a post that said to try formatting the card with this utility:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
After I did a quick format with SD Formatter 3.1 I then noticed a new notification "Damaged internal storage - Storage damaged. You may have to reformat it."
Now I'm still able to mount the sd card on my pc via the phone but windows doesn't recognize any disk in the drive. I get this error "There is no disk in drive X. Insert a disk, and then try again."
Has anyone had this issue? Any idea what causes it and how to resolve it? At this point, I have a full backup of the contents, so I'm only concerned with resolving the sd card issues and making the notifications disappear.
Thanks
I had this issue, removed as card and blew into the slot and replaced the card, haven't had it happen again so far.

Yeah, I've powered down the phone, removed the card, replaced it and powered back on but I still have the same errors.
Called Verizon and they told me to go to one of their stores to see if swapping out a new SD Card would fix it. Hopefully the problem doesn't happen again.
Stopped by the Verizon store and they swapped out a new SD card. The "Blank SD Card - SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem" error went away but I still had the "Damaged internal storage - Storage damaged. You may have to reformat it" error. This time it allowed me to format the internal storage.
So it turns out that the SD card was completely hosed and the external SD card got corrupted, but after the format was resolved.
I'm still not sure what caused this but I hope it's not something regular as I have had the phone less than a week.
Every time i got a problem with any external device, like sd card, I use this powerfull tool Aconis Disk Director. It has a lot of options that maybe solve you problem.
I've been seeing this too. How do they swap out the internal sd?
Hi friends recently I had bought htc amaze.
When I connected my phone through cable it asks for formatting internal storage... After that I'm unable to mount sd and external sd also.. When I'm mounting sd card it shows "preparing sd card" and within a second it shows "sd card safe to remove". PLEASE HELP ME....
How many gb contains your sd? If you have 16 or 32 gb sd-card try to drive in 8 gb sd-card! There are many problem about this in many forums guys wrote that they drove-in 8 gb and their problem was fixed!
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.
Hi,
I've recently formatted my SD card to be used as internal storage.
Then suddenly all apps and files stored on the SD card wouldn't load anymore, so I tried restarting.
But that's just how I endet up in bootloop. I removed the SD card and now my phone works again.
The problem is that my SD card doesn't and I can't even format it.
Do you think the SD card has just stopped working or is that related to it being used as internal storage?
I have a HTC One M8 with a nightly of CM13.
Thanks in advance
