Dump your SD card, as it appears fried.
Reflash the rom, get a new card, and put your backups on your internal memory for the time being.

I can't recommend brands, since I haven't bought one in years (still using the 16 GB one I had in my E4GT), but I'd go with the Sammy if you like, since they made the phone. Probably a safe call.

before you get rid of your sd card if you don't mind i have a few question?
1. why if your going custom rom would you do step 2? you had no need to root it if you were doing step 3 and installing a custom recovery/rom.
2. do you have a sd card adapter for micro sd? can you see if the computer sees it....
3. if pc doesn't detect it. can you look under windows disc management ... tell us if you see a unallocated space matching sd size?
4.also what format was sd fat32 or or exfat?

i was under impression you need root to instal custom recovery (bin a long time since messed with android)
yes pc see's and write to it so does phone just after reboot or sometimes taking it out of phone or pc and swamping it to phone or pc it gets damaged (yes i unmount it first)
i formatted it both with note 3 and windows as fat32
I am having the same exact issues, did you ever find any solutions to this?

Hey guys, I am rooted/unlocked running Jelly'Beans' Build 11 (going to build 12 tonight) and for some reason I can access my SD card while the phone is running normally, but when I boot to recovery it says I cannot mount the external SD to flash a file.
I get around this by just using the internal storage, but this is not ideal. Can anyone give me an explanation of why this might be happening, or maybe tell me how to fix it? Thanks!
either a bad sd card or you need to format the card to fat32.

If it were bad or formatted improperly, would I still be able to access and use it under normal phone conditions? I use it to save my pictures to, and I can access it from the phones file browser as well as when it is plugged into a pc.

cwm recovery does not recognize exfat. you will have move your files to a pc then format the card to fat32 if you want cwm to recognize it.

This method worked for me. I am on a Galaxy S4 SGH m919. I stumbled upon this posting by doing a search. I was having a problem where my SD card is working but it wouldn't mount in recovery, so I couldn't restore back ups, of flash anything. I only had this problem after I had flashed Google Edition 4.3. I still don't know exactly what caused it, but this recovery TWRP did the trick. Thank you so much for helping me out!!
I was originally going to post this under the developer section, but seeing how it won't let me post there until I've reached over 10 posts, (started new acct instead of trying to find old login info) I figured I'd try here:
I successfully rooted my device earlier and all is going well, but I'm running into a snag for backing up in custom recovery/flashing new ROMs. The recovery isn't recognizing my extSD card, but the phone when booted will. I've moved the ROMs to the extSD to save space and want my backup to go there as well.
Anyone found a fix for this at all?
What kind of sd card?
Check /mnt/extSdCard/
I've got OUDHS CWM... so depending on the recovery tool you have, it may be different for you.

It's a SanDisk ultra 64GB.From what I've read elsewhere it sounds like I may need to reformat it to FAT? When I got the card I just formatted it in the device itself

FAT32 is what you need. I have a 64gb Samsung card and the same thing happened to me. Formating in the phone won't do it. I ended up finding a 3rd party app (EaseUs Partition Master - free edition) and formatted it on the pc (using either built-in or accessory card reader). Afterwards you'll have all the access you're lacking!!
Just confirming what the others are saying - if you installed the card on stock and then rooted to CM you will find that the card doesn't work but DOES still have data on it, if you want to get it off easiest way is PC/Mac otherwise you can format it if you don't mind losing the data.
Greetings,
I have been busy with this for 4-5 days now and nothing works.
i just resetted everything and started from scratch.
can anyone explain me how i change internal to external memory i gotten a :
64 GB Mobile Ultra microSDXC card Class 10 (30MB/s) SanDisk
And my firmware is:
4.2.2
My Phone is:
Samsung galaxy s4 GT-I9505
Hope someone can help this noob out.
Need my phone to be ready befor end of the weekend (holliday)
So all the help is welcome.
Installed:
Clockwork installed now
Superuser rights.
only need help how to install the external to internal memory now.
Im not quite sure what youre getting at but ill give it a shot. Theres no way to swap the internal to external memory. Apps and their data get stored on the internal storage. By default theres only a couple things you can have saved to the external memory card. There is an app called folder mount that allows you to save apps/data on the memory card though.

Thats a mod, i generally refer to conventional means of doing stuff. Anyway ive never used that and it doesnt store everything on the sd. Apps still get saved to internal storage while data/resources get saved to external. Like I said I would check out folder mount. See if that suits your needs.

Altho it was for i9500 it worked.
Then i format to factory settings, then i checked and i could still boot to clockwork used the phone a bit installed superused rights.
then i tryed to put on factory settings again and did not boot anymore to recovery and also not to clockwork.

Once you install a custom recovery yoj cant boot to stock recovery because its overwritten by the custom version. Thats a mega thread for everything i9500 and i9505. I would try reflashing the recovery to see if it fixes it. If not you might have to odin back to stock. This is also the verizon specific forum for the s4 so posting in your devices specific forum would probably get you more help.

Thanks for all the help ill reinstall the offical firmware hope that helps the solution.
ill try the folder mount hope it works becoas my phone is full fast when i download a couple of games.
Not a problem. Glad i could point you in the right direction. If you made any backups you might want to move those to external storage. They are fairly large. I have a couple 1 gig+ games and several smaller ones and still have 5 or 6 gigs left.

Well the main problem was when i install a couple of games the main memory is full way to fast
thats why i wanted and hoped the swap would help the problem.
tho i just made more problems and consumed to mutch time :silly:
i think i just have to stick around on the problem and hope samsung will fix of have a solution to this in time.
i did not make any backups. so i just have to start frome scratch tomorrow.
thanks for all the help again and gl helping others.
You could also try the app Folder Mount in the Play Store here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.devasque.fmount&hl=en this will allow you to put the "data" folders associated with larger apps on the SD card. If you are looking to swap internal to external memory the other suggested thread will help you do that. There are pro's and cons to it and when you factory reset or change ROM's you need to do it all over again.
Okay, so as a new Android user, I've so far experienced my first phone, annoying stock apps/ROMs, the joys and hazards of rooting and installing custom ROMs, and experimenting with advanced settings and utilities.
Now, I think, I am ready for kernels.
I bought an OTG cable, and I cannot get my exFAT drive to show up. My coworker says it's because I have a stock kernel.
Does anyone know what kernel I need?
I'm using a VZW GS4 with CM 10.1 RC2 rooted.
Also, providing me with links where I can learn this ish would be awesome. Thanks!

I couldn't get CM recovery to recognize my 64gb exfat card. Id'ld goomanager from playstore & used it to install TWRP which recognized my card, no problem. Nandroid backup & then flashed Hyperdrive. Happy as a Skylark!

Personally I would just recommend re-formatting your card to Fat32 as it's super easy (literally takes like 60 seconds), and you won't run into any problems where your phone won't read it.
Here is a reasonably easy guide on it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1773735
Otherwise you need a kernel that will recognize Exfat, which now there are alot more than there used to be due to the source code being released.
Out of all the custom kernels for the S4 I would recommend KT747 most highly. It is without doubt the most popular kernel for the S4 and has enough features to keep you busy for weeks. Plus it's always being updated. If you do not want to reformat your card to Fat32 this kernel will read it. Here is the thread for it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2294083
I would highly highly recommend installing TWRP recovery instead of CWMR as it's much easier to use and just a better recovery in my opinion. It doesn't have a problem with Exfat either. To install it just download the app Goomanager from the play store. Open it, grant it root privileges , then hit menu, then "installopenrecoveryscript" it will automatically install TWRP recovery over CWMR.
Good luck.

A strange thing about cwm recognizing exfat is that when I re-loki'd cwm 6.0.3.2 touch and made my own flashable zip it finally recognized my exfat card and allowed me to make back ups, etc. I don't remember if I made any other changes or not, I made a lot of flashable recoveries yesterday (see here ) also I cant get it to work on any other version of cwm. Im on stock mdk kernel.

Like I said, your best bet is to just reformat your card to fat32 and then you don't have to worry about it, and you won't need a custom kernel or different recovery just to be able to use the card. In that link I gave there is basically a one click tool to reformat to fat32. It's incredibly easy.

Guys,
This isn't an internal SD card. I bought on OTG cable. I have a thumbdrive I want to move files between on and off my phone with (Basically a music and movie repository).
I cannot get the drive to mount on my phone. I was told it's because of the kernel. It's currently formatted exFAT.

No I use twrp so Im good. I was just stating that ive got exfat to mount using cwm using the stock kernel recently, but I thought op was talking about an external sd. Plus I dont want to have to transfer everything to my pc to reformat for no reason/benefit.

Out of curiosity, how did you get it working? That thread states in the beginning that the USB storage doesn't work..? I had been under the impression that these (high-end Samsung) devices had OTG enabled since I have been explicitly testing for this due to some developments I'm working on...
I just installed TWRP on my N3, when it first booted up there were some problems that I've come acrossed. First it made some apps not work..then I went into Astro to move the backup I just did to my external SD, It froze on me while moving the file so I restarted the phone. Now I can't even access my external SD card anymore. It just shows up that I don't have a SD card mounted...Any fix for this?
What I have and what I've done to my N3:

Rooted N3 from Chainfire's post and that's it
Installed TWRP
I have the same problem. I have been searching for 3 days for a solution. I am coming from the g note 2 with 64 gig extreme SanDisk sd card. When i put the sd card back in my note 2 it works fine.This sucks, I hope a solution is posted soon.

I remember reading some where that someone suggested backing up your SD card to your PC, formatting the card in the N3, then moving everything back over to it. Hope it helps...
As far as the 64gb cards.
Remove everything from card.
Format as fat 32.
Replace your files.

If nothing can read [detect] the card then it is dead, kill it with fire to make sure the data is 10000000% destroyed :[
The issue is as on now TWRP cannot read exfat. Most SD cards are formatted in exfat by default. You will not be able to reformat the card on windows 7/8 machines in fat32 with out a third party program. Easiest way to reformat your card to fat32 is go to TWRP recovery and choose wipe. It will auto format your card to fat32. "be sure you backed up anything on your card prior to wipe". After you see the card has been wiped go back to install in TWRP and you will be able to choose your sd card.
