SD Not being recognized. Need help! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there guys,
Well, I got into a serious problem with my SD and I would really appreciate any help.
First of all, I got a Lg Magna H502 with the android 5.0.1, stock ROM. I managed to root it and then I got it into a bootloop by installing stupid things on it. (I'm pretty noob at android management). With TWRP I wiped everything that I could - totally desperate at this point. Bricked the hell out of it. Then, I couldn't even acess the TWRP.
Later, I managed to flash a mm ROM on it and all went back working again.. but with a big problem though, my SD wasn't being recognized anymore. It doesn't seem like a common problem, cuz I tried all the solutions that I could possibly find in the internet for 2 days and yet, no lucky. The problem isn't on the SD since my other device and my pc with the adapter can find it. Already tried formating with exFAT and FAT32, also tried the cmd checking method with the "chkdsk etc", it seems to be everything ok with the SD. Not only that, already tried to wipe cache and mount the sd card using the TWRP but still, nothing happens. It doesn't allow me to mount it.
I didn't try to flash the old stock ROM on it because all the people that installed the same mm ROM on the same phone didn't have this issue. So, it doesn't seems to be a ROM problem.
Any ideas? I can't figure it out.
The SD model is a Sandisk 32GB.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Have I damaged my internal memory? possible brick

Hi everyone,
So, I think ive damaged my internal memory...But let me give u some info first.
UK SGS3 i9300 on vodafone. I rooted it a while ago and have had several roms. I know the basics of android hacking since I've hacked several as well as my previous 2 contract phones. I was on paranoidandroid 2.22 or w.e. version it was, however I wanted to go back to a sammy rom, and decided to clear my internal sdcard n ext sdcard (more or less - leave my music folder on there foe example) at the same time. I only mention this because my lead has been a little touchy recently and during the process it disconnected a fair few times till i got the cable sat right. I didnt have easy ums or anything - it was mtp. I completed this and loaded my rom onto the extsdcard.
I then went into the cwm touch recovery 6.xx or w.e. selected factory reset, wipe cache n dalvik, then installed it. It just got stuck at the boot logo for a while, then kept boot looping. I then tried wiping a few times, and a couple of different roms, and during this time I noticed that when I click wipe data it rebooted recovery. I then downloads the appropriate stock firmware to flash via odin. I flashed it and it was still stuck on the boot logo. I then realized I couldnt get into recovery, so I flash cf-root via odin, I got the 5.xxx recovery that comes with it. I tried to wipe all again, and it just didnt seem to work, I was stuck in a bootloop. I then posted this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948255
So yeah with adb, I got it to boot, but i had the wrong size internal memory capacity. Then tonight I flashed twrp (a recovery if u dont know) (latest version) via goomanager and then selected in goo manager ti reboot recovery. Now my phone just goes from the sgs3 logo to the twrp logo and back, even if I boot normally, it does that, and same for trying to boot recovery. I can still get into download mode, but thats it.
I have since tried flashing the stock firmware again to no avail, I'm going to flashing cf root to get recovery... but we'll see what happens...
so what can i do?!?!
Have you tried flashing complete stock firmware through Odin? Then start from there?
You say internal memory is wrong? Might have to flash .pit aswell with re-partition?

yes I have, several times, if u read it all... Where can i get teh CORRECT pit file? I've tried one, but it didnt help.
I've just flashed cf root (after a pass on stock firmware) and its booted the ultima rom again... and still got 12.1gb internal... so my phone boots again, but the internal is still wrong! help!
You know that some of the 16gb is taken for the system files right? My phone only reports like 11.6gb in total to use.
Android reserves about 4gb that's why you only have 12gb free there is no problem there.

That's normal, the 12.1GB is COMPLETELY normal.
Other memory is reserved by the system.
This is usual and it should work that way, stop messing with it.
32GB models should have about 25GB~.
idiot here

oooookk, TT used to show 16gb tho.... i remember i like the fact it read 16gb sd & 16gb extsd. nvm, im just wrong. thanks. I'll use it as it for now, still not 100% convinced but ya know... never had this sort of trouble with my HTC's :/
I'd just like to thank fellow-idiot for this thread, had similar situation (semibricked device, flashed something I should not have been flashing), and now my Internal is 11.3, and I seem to remember it was 14.7, just like my external - but I may be wrong. Changing ROMs, formating Internal, changing recoveries (now on Teamwin Recovery) doesn't seem to change a thing about it. Oh well, not that I'm gonna need it, just wondering where it went (never said hallo either... no manners, today's internal memories..)
11.3 is what it should be

[Q] HELP!!!! Rezound has no OS!

i have looked everywhere and cant find a solution for some reason my phone was fine yesterday, until i rebooted then it went to htc screen and went black, so i tried to flash the same rom which was before, crynogan rom 4.2.2 jb and it said it was unable to mount anything, cache sd card, i am currently not able to wipe the cache or memory as it wont let me, ive been working on this for hours, i cant flash a rom or anything because it wont mount, please help i cant get a new phone at this moment, and need it for work. Thankyou guys.
Also
my internal memory is 0, as well as my sd card. cannot partition either says its also unable to mount. ive tried team win recovery and clockwork, same issure
Can you try formatting the SD card in PC? If it still can't see it, might be bad phone...
Sent from my Infected Rezound
If you're s-off, trying running the RUU on it, if that doesn't work, I think it's safe to say your phone is dead.
Thankyou very much for your reply, i have 3 sd cards all at different gigabytes, same thing with them. Not accepting a single one but its not just that, if it cannot mount the system, cache, sd card, or internal memory, then this phone is bricked or useless like youve said, ive done fastboot and its a pain, im not that experienced but i get the idea. Even when i go into recovery, and go to mount, i cannot mount anything or partition, it wont let me select anything. here are some pics of my phone and and process..... well it wont let me upload them until 10 post but i can send them to you if you want to see if you can tell by them. im fully able to get to hboot and recovery no problem.
my phone is S-on btw

[Q] bricked my phone trying to install olympus cyanogenmod 9, help?

hey guys, first post here: i just bought the atrix 4g, got it in the mail today, used the 1-click rooter to unlock the bootloader, then to root. then i installed cyanogenmod 9- i followed instructions appropriately, but the phone hangs at the motorola logo screen at boot-up and does nothing more. i tried re-flashing, fixing permissions, clearing dalvik cache, nothing works.
edit- i installed cyanogenmod9 through clockworkmod, by installing zip from internal
i was going to re-flash stock rom, but i cant get internal storage to mount from clockworkmod (no sd card), so i cant get the stock file over to the phone to flash, so im bricked.
any thoughts/advices? thanks in advance, after not having a phone for near a week, id kinda like to make a call

Did you try using fastboot to erase system, data, cache, and osh partitions?

You bricked your phone, not cyanogenmod ...
Restore a backup, your phone should work.
hm, can anyone tell me, why i cant get internal storage to mount from clockworkmod? is this a common problem?
i dont understand what went wrong for me, when i followed the same steps that many others did.

Your phone is not a paperweight, just not boot the operating system
You did a backup with CWM? restore a backup as Emerson says
You can borrow a sd card copy there CM7 and install from the sdcard
You can also use RDS to install a stock rom
Never install a rom without having an one that you know works 100%
AND ALWAYS READ ALL FAULTS AND SOLUTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING A CUSTOM ROM
ok guys, i went and bought an sd card, clockworkmod mouted it fine, i found and copied over to the sd card android 2.34 for atrix, it flashed fine and my phone is back up.
can you gentleman tell me, whats a good solid rom to flash? cyanogen mod 9 obviously didnt work for me. id like to get started setting up the phone, so i need a good rom to begin with.
thanks to everyone in advance
Go with montouri's version of cm7.2 ,mrom-Olympus you can find it in the developer section. Its my daily driver. Its the most stable and has the best battery life out of all the roms that I've tried
motoxrcr1 thanks for the recommendation, running m-rom now and it runs smooth.
the first time i tried to install it, it hung at the boot logo, then i got to thinking maybe i better try updating clockworkmod, turned out that clockworkmod 4.0X that was installed by the 1-click rooter, is rather old, so i found and updated to 5.XX. tried re-flashing m-rom again, and it worked fine that time.
older clockworkmod, that's probably what caused my original problem with cyanogenmod 9..
does mrom support overclocking? not that i guess i need it, but just to know for future reference
thanks!
the trouble i caused myself, was all due to flashing the rom from an older version of clockworkmod.. after updating to a newer version 5.xx, it flashed fine

[Q] Factory Reset NOT Working! (In Hboot)

I flashed one Recovery, then flashed a newer version. When I installed a Rom, it couldn't find my internal SD card. It said it was there, but everything was installed to the external and the cameras wouldn't start because they couldn't find the internal...Very strange. I tried various things (Installing new Recovery, but it wouldn't flash, mounting and unmounting, but got error on sd card mount) and nothing worked. So I figured I would do a factory reset and it just boots to the Recovery...weird...
I'm going to flash an RUU and see if going back to stock helps, but I would appreciate hearing if anyone else has ever had this problem...
I searched and found nothing in the Rezound Thread. XDA offered suggestions but they were all from other devices, mostly Samsung and those folks seemed to assume device failure, and it may be that, but the device seems to be working, it's just the internal that's having issues...
Any thoughts?
EDIT: I flashed the latest RUU in HBOOT and all is back to normal!
If you had just installed the stock recovery it would have allowed you to do what you wanted it to.

[Q] Lenovo A369i cant mount

Hi, wanna make this quick and short as possible.
Im new here, and I need help on my new phone.
yesterday, I got a Lenovo A369i phone that happens to be a secondary phone for me. So as advntureous as I can be, I tried doing what some of my friends do... Custom Roms. Im not a pro in regards with these stuff, but I aint no noob too, Im a bit literate bout these, but not knowledgable enough to fix this.
so heres what. Phone is Lenovo A369i.
Build no : A369I_ROW_Lite_S005_140823
Android 4.2.2
Rooted and Stock ROM atm.
I came across a site, lenovoa369iblogspot.com, and saw lots of Custom Roms and whatnot and saw a easy way to root and flash my device w/o pc. Using Framaroot to root and MobileUncle Tool for TWRP recovery then installation of my desired ROM. I followed the steps correctly, was able to ROOT(i had SuperSU and was able to use Root-Required apps) and had access to TWRP.
Now, it was instructe to wipe cache and factory reset, which failed at first(but I didnt noticed it caused I acidentally pressed back, and thought it was successful) then I continued installing my ROM(it was a Samsung S5 ROM) it started OK, until it was extracting, then it stopped. At first I thought it hanged, but it just got screen timeout. I left it there for 30mins and I thought it was done. Upon reboot, I noticed nothing changed and speculated something went wrong. So i browsed the web for other ways to install and flash my phone cause I thought it just didnt work. I tried getting a stock rom with build no. S110 and tried some ROMs too but cant get it to work. I also tried switching to CW and TWRP v.v. but cant seem to update/install it, until I noticed that I cant wipe my cache, data or anything on my phone through recovery at all. I can still access my External SD car, cause that where all the ROMs are placed, but as i try each ROM, there would be a bunch of errors like E: cant mount emmc, cant mount sdcard, cant mount cache etc etc. So even I cant do factory reset cause itll say it Failed. Maybe its the reason why I cant install those ROMs. I tried unrooting, no good. I tried to update the software through settings, but after download, it still goes through TWRP/CW and still cant install together with the cant mount errors. I tried the MOUNT on TWRP but i xant mount anything except for the External SD card. It says on the emmc "Emmc=0bytes" like there wasnt an internal storage to begin with. And its really frustrating cause I cant even do a factory reset even through settings, it still redirects me to Recoery Mode. Tried using TWRP/CW and even android stock recovery and to no avail. Funny thing is, I can sill access the memory, I can format the Phone Storage(1gb) and still have the internal storage(1.2gb) for a total of 2.2gb(even tho it says 4gb in the box, I think 2.2gb is the only usable memory) I can still access its file, save and do stuff. Heck, theres nothing actually wrong in my phone, all features are still there BUT I cant make a Factory Wipe cause of that Mounting Error. I want to fix this so I could finish installing the ROM i wanted and I also want to be able to factory wipe my phone incase I do something else stupid.
I really dont know what to do, its been hours since I started looking this up. I also fried flashing it on PC but it wont succeed cause when i start flashing, even tough it "kinda" detects my phone, the Flash Tool still shows my emmc=0.00 bytes. I dont know if this happened when ai was starting to root my phone or during the initial installation of the ROM, so I rally dont know what to do or think of. So I resorted to ask the real pros for help, cause I get OCD on these kind of stuff and I cant sleep or do anything until i figure this out or find a way.
Hope someone an help me. Thnks!
P.S., i dont have access to my PC right now, so I only have my other phone and tab. Im also not much well versed in advanced programming whatnot, I only know a few basics so please spare my brain on codes XD I need something in english if thats ok Thanks!
P.P.S. Sorry if this is not the appropriate place to post, feel free to move it if needed. And I also tried posting on the site where I got the ROMs and stuff, but Im afraid the last post was like months ago so I cant really hope for them to help me.
