TWRP dont work with SD Card - Sprint LG G3

When i have my SD installed on my phone and try to enter on recovery mode (TWRP) it gets stuck on TWRP Boot logo, i need to pull my battery to shutdown the phone.
if i remove the SDCard and try to boot into recovery it works without any problem.
i installed TWRP through AutoRec from Play Store.
Now i'm on marshamallow and i use the SD Card as internal memory, so i dont know if i can remove it without cause any problems just to use TWRP.

When you decide to make your sd card "Adoptable (internal) Storage" your phone not only incorporates the card as internal, but it also ENCRYPTS your sd card. Now the only device that will read your card is your phone. Try and load it on a desktop or your laptop and it won't even recognize your card. Because it encrypts your SD CARD, TWRP cannot see your card and thus gets stuck on the TEAMWIN screen when booting into recovery. When you remove the card and reboot into recovery, then TWRP works again. How I fixed it is to go to storage, and settings and change the card back to "Transportable (extrnal) Storage." The phone will reformat your card again (thus erasing everything on the card) and make it external and able to be read from any device (laptop, desktop, etc.). This will also allow TWRP to see the card again and will not freeze on TEAMWIN screen when booting into recovery. Also, if you revert the sd card back to Transportable Storage, your phone will "remember" that you had an SD CARD assigned to Adoptable Storage. You need to click on that SD CARD and choose "FORGET" card. this will remove that SD CARD and assign your newly reformatted Transportable SD CARD as the only card on your phone. If you don't do this "FORGET" step, your camera, your gallery will force close everytime you try to open it because it is looking for the Adoptable SD CARD that you got rid of yet your phone still thinks it exists. Once you "FORGET" that SD CARD, your phone will function properly. I learned all this the hard way and hours and hours of reading.

TWRP - Does hybrid partitioning possible after SD Card reverting Int->Ext allocation?

Thanks a lot texasjmzmd for your diagnostic and fix, very helpful! TWRP documentation says nothing about possible hybrid partitioning Int+Ext to extend Internal memory keeping External capacity, except the menu proposing to allocate some memory (with no precision about memory units bytes/kbytes/mbytes). Some enlightment about that issue would be more than welcome : a link to documentation or any related post.

Flashed this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2235446
I am getting this error of No external storage available on all the apps that require internal storage e.g. In Gallery, it says no external storage available, same in camera, explorer e.t.c
Have I done something wrong?
Do you have an sd card?
I do have an sd card, currently, the player only works with the sd card.
somehow the sd card is being treated as the internal sd card? this is completely weird. As soon as I take out the sd card, it fails to recognize the internal card.

Find "vold.fstab. (system/etc)" open it, and change "/mnt/sdcard/sdcard1" to "/mnt/sdcard/sdcard0."

1 can you go setting--- memory-- check what is available and send the scren shoot.
2 when you wipe in recovery no any strange message at the screen? like can't read or open mmcblk0p 15....
I got this same kind of problem but i dont have and external Sd, but i want to save the pictures on the phone it self is there a way to change this? Because when i open the camera ap it says, no external memory.
I had the same issue
I had the same issue.
Go into recovery mode and try to mount emmc. That's what my external SD was renamed.
It was fine when I loaded the ROM but it flaked out after I loaded a different kernel.
I would recommend using X-plore from the Play Store to navigate your files. It's the best way to explore, move etc.
Try format SD-card:
Go to CWM -> mounts and storage -> format sdcard

[Q] Wiped and formatted SD Card. Needed files for Android?

Ok so I wiped and formatted my SD Card to FAT32. I am in the reboot/recovery screen of my android with ClockworkMod and I noticed when I turned on USB Mass Storage, the SD Card is readable but there is nothing on it now. Is there any important files I am going to need to put on the SD Card for my android to function correctly on start up/running? Or will my android automatically put the correct files on the SD Card on boot? Haven't tried booting it yet lol..don't want to screw it up.

There is no need for an external SD card to boot into the OS. You can start your system without the card or with the card erased or w/e. Good luck .

Adoptable storage corrupt Android one first generation

I'm using Android one spice dream uno running on marshmallow,I enabled adoptable storage. it was working fine with many apps on it,but now won't boot up unless I remove the adoptable storage SD card.Every time it goes to boot with the SD card, the home screen appears like it has booted but there is no response from the screen. Then after about 60 seconds it reboots by itself. When I remove the SD card, it boots fine. Is there any way to get access to my data on SD card,it won't show up in other phones and even on card reader when connected to PC. I neither have access to a Linux system to decrypt the storage nor have my phone rooted with twrp. please help me out, I have important files on the card which I can't afford to lose. how can I access my data back?

Need to recover ext4 protected SD card

Hello there.
I have android phone with 9.0 firmware. When I bought the SD card and installed it, my phone asked me how I would use it.
I selected this variant:
Internal storage:
You can store apps and data for this device only. If you move the SD card to another device, the SD card will be erased ("formatted"). After the SD card is erased, you can use it with the other device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The problem is that:
I got bootloop after some manipulations with firmware. So I had to make Factory Reset. Before that I've removed SD card from phone. And now I can't use this SD, because it's ext4 and something like "protected". My PC can't open disk even with ext4 reading tools. When I install this SD to the phone, it asks to formate SD and select the option of use.
How can I get back my data from this SD card?
