I have a 64gb Sandisk Ultra SDXC card formatted in exFAT. I had been using the card in my NOTE 2 with no issues. I normally keep all of my movies, music, emulators, and ROMs on it so I can keep space free on my phone. This morning I got my phone setup the way that I wanted it and I decided to install the SD card into the new phone. Everything seemed to go okay, I got a message telling me that it was preparing the card, but after the message disappeared, the SD card was not recognized. There were no error messages regarding the card, it simply did not show any additional storage on the phone and all options regarding the card with exception to "Mount SD Card" and "Format SD Card" were not accessible.
I took ejected the card and formatted it to NTFS to see if that would make a difference and when I reinserted it into the (M8), it recognized it as a blank SD card that was not in the proper format. It prompted me to format the card while still installed in the device, which it did without error. After the format was complete I received the same "Preparing SD Card" message that I received before, but after the message disappeared, the card still didn't show up as additional storage.
Through a root browser I have the option to enter extSD, but nothing I put on the card is there. I then took the card back out, installed it into my Note 2 and it worked with no problems at all. Finally I ejected the card, reinstalled it in the (M8) again, it gives me the same prompt as before, but after the message disappears the additional storage does not show up and all options with exception to "Mount SD Card" and "Format SD Card" are inaccessible once again.
I have tried the fix found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2700310 to no avail.
Does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening and is there any way that I can solve the problem?

If you have a USB card reader, try formatting the card as FAT32 with your computer.
I believe most cards come pre-formatted as FAT32 by default. I've always just put the cards in my Android devices without any formatting, and they work just fine.
Not sure why the device's default format didn't work, but possibly formatting on a computer will get it working.
It's possible that SD may be dying.
I had a 32gb card that a friend left with me to fill with movies/etc, but since I wasnt going to see them for a while, I decided to use it with my old LGOG. Not 3 days later, I get what you described, and now the card isnt even seen by Windows.
Even with formatting the card, it would work again for a few minutes, but as soon as I tried copying more than ~3 gigs, the card would go corrupt again.
SD cards dont last forever yo.

I just tried it out a few minutes ago. I don't know why, but it's working perfectly fine in Windows, a Note 2, S3, and an S5. I have no idea what's going on, but no matter what I try, nothing makes it work on this phone.

I was able to get the card formatted form exFAT to FAT32 and it looked like it was going to work, same with NTFS. I inserted it into the phone, waited for it to prepare the card and this time I got a message telling me that the SD Card was damaged, but I could format it in the phone. I followed the instructions, just as I had before, it went through it's thing, got to the part where it attempted to mount the card, appeared as though it was going to mount, and then nothing, just like with everything else. I have no idea what's going on.
I ran some tools on it and the card appears to be in good condition, so I have no idea what to do. I don't know if it's the phone, or if it is the card. I'm thinking about buying a 128gb card, but I'm afraid if I do, I'm going to find myself in the exact same position that I'm in now and out a lot of money to boot.
I'm loosing my mind with this thing.
Surely you must know someone that has a MicroSD card you can try. Trying another would pretty much eliminate the card as being the issue (and possibly the card tray or similar component on the phone). I have at least 2 "spare" MicroSD cards laying around.
I had a similar problem few weeks ago and I did format my 64gb card with GUIFORMAT on my win 7 PC and since then no more problem. Here is the link: http://www.realmodscene.com/index.php?/topic/323-gui-format-fat32-drive-formatter/
Thank you. I'll give it a shot right now.

You, sir, just won all my Internets. I don't know what it was about that app, but it worked like a champ the first time around. I don't get it either. I had used so many tools to get it to FAT32, but this one did the trick. I formatted the card, inserted it...was totally waiting for it to not work, and I noticed "Unmount SD Card". I read it and thought "hmmm, that's not right", lol. Then it dawned on me that it worked. Copying folders over to it now. Thanks so much, bud. I really owe you one.

Nice. I've heard that the native Windows formatting tool is not the best (although its always worked fine for me), so this might be one of those instances.

Thanks. I had the same problem with a brand new 128GB card with only this phone (HTC One E8 Dual). Until I found this. So far working like a charm. You ARE a star.

Noob here. Device is 16GB NT, rooted 1.4.1, using Albert's SD card. Works like a charm, but various apps show that they are not compatible with the NT. I would like to try the external CM7, and flash it to internal after I try it out.
I have tried several SD cards, (8GB Sandisk Class 4, 32GB Sandisk Class 4, 8GB Transcend Class 4) and two ways of imaging the CM7 file (using Winimager32 with the SD in an SD/MMC reader/writer on my laptop, using Winimager32 with the SD card in the NT). After imaging the SD, I have attempted to boot without expanding Partition 4, also with expanding Partition 4 using Gparted, and expanding Partition 4 using EASEUS Partition Master and Mini-tool Partition Wizard. I have gone back to a clean SD by using Windows to reformat the card, and by using the NT to erase and reformat.
I think that I must be missing a simple step in the process, but after searching XDA, Tabletroms, and Google, I am unable to come up with a solution.
Questions that I have are:
- Is it necessary to clear the dalvik cache when using the SD card? (I don't think so, since all boot and setup activity seems like it does not include the internal boot/system files)
- I came across a thread that says that a "cache" folder should be added to the root of the "data" partition. Is this a required step?
- Do the second and third partitions require the "system" and "data" labels?
- I set the attributes of Partition 1 to Active (LBA). Do I also need to set a boot attribute?
I apologize for the long-winded post, but I appreciate any pointers that you can provide. BTW, the efforts of all those who have taken the lead to improve the NT are first class, and the help provided by members of the XDA community here are impressive, to say the least.
-
If you mean you're not able to boot up at all, try plugging your NT in then turn it on. Some people's NTs will only boot when attached to the cable.
Re: Android Won't Skate
Thanks for the quick response. I left out a few items in the original post.
I have to tether my NT to the plugged-in charger to get it to boot with the SD card installed. I get the Team B splash screen for about 15 seconds, then it goes to a black, backlit screen. I have waited as long as 20 minutes, but nothing happens. I have also popped out the SD card, and reinserted it, as have others in this forum, but to no avail. When I power on untethered, I just go to the normal NT boot.
If I boot up normally, insert the card and use ES File Explorer, I can see four folders, plus the boot.img, flashing_boot.img, MLO, and u-boot.bin. Also, when I use GParted, I can see the four partitions, and when I use ext2explore, I can see many files in both of the Linux partitions.
Hope this adds a little more clarity to the original post.
Thx.
You shouldn't have to make any changes to the SD card after you write the image to it. Just put the card in and power on.
it 'sounds' like its your sd card. did you try it with just the one ? imho, because the card is choking... go get a 4 gb class 2 and try again.
1) sdformatter, fat32, not quick...
2) then use 'Win32DiskImager.exe' . . .
Android now skates
I finally got CM7 to run from the SD card(Sandisk 32GB Class 4). Used another PC to image the SD card. Worked on the first attempt.
Hope this helps others who have had this problem.
the main thing that those of us who came from nook colors will know is dont use laptop sd card readers.. prolly half the posts i seen were due to using one of them. the best SD card readers are the PC ones and using a proper image writer.
as far as the app issue.. if its like the nook color you can always edit your build.prop to make it show as another device on google play
I seem to be having somewhat of the same problem.
I got an 8 GB (4) and burned the CM7 image to it using win32diskmanager, then used easeus to partition my drive. Put it in my nook, perfect, everything works.
A few days later I got my 32GB (4) card in the mail and did the same thing. Put it in my nook, and it wouldn't boot. I can see the TEAM B+ splash screen but nothing else, screen turns black afterwards and nook reboots to nook stock.
I don't know why it does this, could be sd card problem.
Im I missing something? do I have to do anything special if im using another sd card on the same nook?

If it worked perfect the first time, it has to be an SD problem or a burning problem. I'd try rewriting the image to that SD card.

So I reformatted the 32GB card using SDformatter (lost 2GB in the process) and burned the image one more time.
Same thing happened. Nook keeps booting back into stock (after team b's splash screen). I re-insert my 8GB SD card and it works perfectly.
Must be the SD card unless someone knows what else is happening... I guess thats what you get when you shop for SD cards on ebay.

You might want to try booting up with the power cable in. Some of these SD cards and NTs just like to be difficult, but it's worth a shot anyway.

Very peculiar things are happening.
I had put my 32GB SD card away until I read your last post, thinking I might try to reboot from card with he power cord like you suggested to see what happens. So I put my card in and it loads to stock nook. No CM7 splash screen like before. I reset the device and tried again, nothing.
I think the card might be bricked now. I checked to see why this was happening and now my devices won't see the SD card. The nook asks me if I want to reformat the card, but it crashes if I choose to do so, and windows won't see the drive the card is on so i'm not able to format or play or see the partitions.
Edit: Wow. Ignore that. As soon as I posted this my device finally reformatted the card. Will try again now.

As long as the SD card mounts, you should be able to get your card back to normal by deleting all the partitions then creating just one, formatted as FAT32.

Re-burned the image. Nook will not start at all now with the card in there. I played with the power cord and left it there for 2 minutes and it powered up, however, no splash screen or anything, boots to stock NT.
I turn the NT back off, same thing, won't power ON. I wait two minutes with power cord on and it powers on then.
Bad SD card?

When I had issues, I followed old fart's suggestion and reformatted my card with sdformatter first. then burned the image with Win32diskimager, both on another PC. When finished, I ended up with a 3.8GB image on the SD card. Nothing worked until I used the other machine. After I was sure that the card was going to work, I expanded the fourth partition to use the rest of the space on the card.
BTW, I had to use the USB cord, plugged into the charger to boot up. Worked on first try. Been happy ever since.

Sorry for the confusion.
I made many unsuccessful attempts to make the sd card on a Sony laptop, using an sd card reader in one of its USB ports. It wasn't until I switched over to the "other" machine which is an old Compaq desktop, that I was able to get a good image on the sd card. The point is that I had to switch to different computer to create a good image. It seems like something on my laptop prevented me from making a workable image on the sdcard. Hope this helps.

It could be the read/write speeds. What I do is I use the nook as my card reader, since I dont have a card reader on my PC. However, I do have one of those USB card readers. The difference between them is that when using the nook, it writes at about 3-4mb/s while the usb card reader writes at about .5-1mb/s.
Dear XDA'ers.
I've had an S2 for a while now and I've been running CM9 since early alpha. Recently I decided to buy an SD card (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B005FY61EK/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00) so that I can use it to store my movies. After I got it, I realised that MoboPlayer or AirDroid couldn't detect the SD card and the only way I could put something on it was through a physical USB cable. Now, today I wanted to try something but I found out that my phone doesn't show the SD card at all anymore. I tried taking it out and putting it back in several times as well as flashing the latest CM9 nightly but nothing happened. The only apparent difference that I can see when I put the SD card in is that in the Storage section in Settings, under the SD card tab, I have an option "Mount SD Card" but when I press it, it says preparing SD card yet nothing happens.
Is the SD card fried or what's wrong with it?
I've had the SD card for less than a week so its hard to believe that it's dead already.
Have you got a micro SD card reader that you could use to see if the card is fried? Connect it to your computer, and if it shows up it isn't fried. Also check the format of the card to make sure it is in FAT32 format.

Ahh, I know the problem now (I completely forgot about this).
I formated it to NTFS just before I stopped working since I assumed that it works the same way a USB does (but clearly, I was wrong).
I'll format it back and see what's what.
Have u tried going into settings/memory/left softkey/storage config and select the only options there is?
have you tried other system folders?
i had the same problem before, I found out my sd card mounted as a system folder called "emmc" I'm using resurrection remix rom 2.3
Yep just fixed mine today by downloading https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.qbanin.binder&hl=en if you are unsure of what to select just see the screenshots i followed this selections and it now works fine
Alright, I've fixed it.
Basically, I had formatted it to NTFS because otherwise it gave me some error about file (the file was around 4 gb's and it acted this way with anything over 3) being too big when I was trying to copy it onto the SD card. Now that someone said it has to be in FAT32, I formatted it back and now it works perfectly.
Thanks to everyone who helped me.
Hello there,
I just bought a 32GB Class 10 Samsung MicroSD card.
After inserting it, I made sure the phone sees it, and the computer sees it.
So I started transfering files to it...
Every time I try to transfer files to it, the cards sort of unmount, the computer stops seeing the External/Internal storage drivers info (0/0 KB and no files).
I realized I might be needing to format it, so I went to recovery and formatted the external card. Still no good...
If I don't try to transfer files, the internal sd card still works fine.
Am I formatting it wrong? or some other issue? Did I buy a faulty card?
Thanks!
P.S. Some info incase needed:
Using Galaxy S2 obviously, Resurrection Remix ICS 4.04
My PC is running XP SP3

If unsure about the quality of your SD card google for h2testw. It is a Windows test software you can use to test your SD card.
Tried formatting it... still no good.
And h2test tries to copy a file repeatedly and after some time it also gets stuck like I do manually...
I was running into the exact same issue as you with an SD card awhile back. Tried many, if not all of the suggestions listed here. Sometimes, the cards just die on you, especially at the most inopportune times...

Open CMD
Type format [letter_of_external_card]: /x

and wait.
Then format again (through Windows Explorer) with this settings:

and share the results.

Failure of h2test is normally due to defective hardware.
For SD cards I do not really know but when it comes to USB sticks there are many around that are just cheap crap. You could for instance buy a 8GB stick that will happily accept 8GB of data but only store 4-6GB!. This is where h2test comes into play: it will not only write but also read and therefore check if the data written was really stored in the flash.

Class 10? That card might be just too fast for your hardware.
I'm using Sandisk 32GB Class 4 and never had any problems.
I have tried some Class 6 and Class 8 cards with very various results.
Only class 8 card I found correctly working in my device was Memorex, but it was only 4GB.
So I gave up on fast cards...
its fake or corrupt,did you buy the samsung off a retailer , you always test flash with h2testw before you use it, speed is not the issue,i got a class 10 32gb i had many 16,256,4gb fakes, only 3.7 gb usable droped down to 1kb write then windows couldnt read the storage so you reformat again.
First of all, I am very aware this has been asked many times and will be asked many times after this. I have read MANY threads both here and elsewhere and have never seen a definitive answer (which may not exist)...
My phone has started telling me about once per day that my exernal sd card may be damaged and unmounting it. If I reboot, it works fine until the next time it decides to tell me that again. I have checked it several times with Check Disk on Windows and it never finds any problems. I am currently using a SanDisk 64GB class 10 card purchased off Amazon. Yesterday, I copied everything off the card, completely formatted it (not the quick format and in the required Fat32 format) using the GUI version of Fat32format and copied everything back to the card. Both before and after formatting, Check Disk found no issues. Today, I received a notification that my SD card had unexpectedly been removed (it had not). A few seconds later I received notification that my SD card may be damaged and may need to be formatted. How in the hell Android can tell me that a SD card is corrupt after it already told me that it was no longer in my phone is a mystery to me...
This is the second time I started experiencing this issue. The first time was with a 32GB class 4 SanDisk card that I think WAS becoming corrupt because Check Disk would find issues with that card, so I ended up replacing it with the card I am using now (less than 2 months ago). So... is my card failing? Or is there any reason that Android would report an SD card damaged when it is not?
I would really prefer if the card was failing, because then I would at least know how to fix the issue (get a new card). However, I am not willing to get a new sd card every couple months just because Android has sd card issues. The only recent (major) changes I have made to my phone before this issue started up again was installing the V6 SuperCharger script and changing from Busybox v1.20.0 to Busybox v1.20.2. I am likely going to remove those and see if this clears up, but is there a reason that Android would be falsely reporting a sd card as damaged or is it a sure sign of a failing card?

Mostly happens when the SD card is not what it says, it is, (like imitations) , anyway here is some insight
I was in ES file explorer trying to move files to my external sd card and all of the sudden I get an error saying task failed. I can't delete or copy anything to my external sd card now. It's a 64 gb Class 10 Sandisk Ultra micro sd card. I formatted it to Fat 32 a long time ago. I don't know what's going on. And now all of a sudden Root browser in Root Explorer doesn't work either. I can't write anything on my phone. I even reverted back to stock android to see if it was the rom problem and that wasn't it either. I'm completely lost in the dark now.
I'm running CM12 Beta on my G3 if that means anything.
Try getting into it via twrp I had a problem like that a while back and I tried twrp and it did work I ended up wiping via twrp. You can also try putting it in your computer and partitioning it. I my self repartitioned it and just deleted the current one and made a new one. It seems that some roms or apps ect can cause the software in the sd card to become corrupted also try mounting and unmounting it before you delete anything.
If you are rooted you need to download SDfix from the play store. It says kit kat but works with 5.0.X fine. SD write access is still limited in lollipop unless the app creator allows SD access. If you were on zv6 on a custom rom it was probably baked in.

Yeah I tried formatting it and everything. The micro sd card is stuck in read only mode. I think it's dead. I put the micro sd card back into my S4 and my S4 couldn't write to it either. I ran CHKDSK on command prompt and it said that there's a corrupt file on the mciro sd card but it can't repair it because the micro sd card is stuck in read only mode. I tried to format it usng the SDFormatter and nothing is working. I used google and people are saying that when a micro sd card goes into read only mode it means that it's about to die. :c sucks cause it was 64gb and I've only had it for a year.
I had 2 SanDisk 64GB cards go bad soon after I formatted them to FAT32. I don't know why, but it happened. SanDisk could not explain it, but they were really good about replacing the cards.

I would contact SanDisk about it but I got the SD card in October of 2013 from BestBuy as a birthday present and I don't have the original packaging or receipt so I don't have proof of purchase so I doubt I'd be able to get the micro sd card replaced.

Chat with SanDisk. IIRC, they didn't ask me for a receipt, just where and when the card was purchased. It has a lifetime warranty, they will replace it and will even send you a free shipping label.
I have the same problem, I was copying files to my external sd card from internal and all of a sudden it said "moving files failed" and then nothing on my sd card would show up, though on storage information it shows that it's mostly full. But all the files are unreachable until I reboot then everything is fine while I'm listening to music, but if I stop for a while or try to move anything it messes up again. Anyone know of a fix?
I'm on lollipop, but the sd fix app would not do anything for me... Running Danvdh's Google Play Edition Rom
