SD card ruined last time - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

So I used universal Androit. Didnt even get the chance to put anything on it yet and my 8gb sandisk card was just ruined.Kept saying format but couldnt be read.
Is it the Universal Androit root or is it just luck of the draw? I would like to root my Nexus one but not at the risk of my 16gb card I just got.
Any tips or anything?

Everybodies looking at the thread and no tips....not even a it wasnt because of the rooting??

check you inbox for some tips...

The chances are it wasn't because of the app so is probably due to the card itself. Do you get errors whilst trying format it using a card reader?

Can I swap sd cards after root?

I'm trading my cappy for my wifes inspire. I rooted it and flashed coredroid. I want to drop in my sd card out of my cappy and take the sd card from the inspire and put it in the cappy. Can I do that after making it a gold card?

yes yes yes. I use one for movies and another for roms and mods.
Thanks. So she can keep her gold card and i can take the cappy card and still flash away?

Yes you only need the gold card to downgrade the phone to get root and after that you are done with it.
Kind of the same problem
I root mi inspire with a 4gb sd, now I found my 8gb sd can I swap it without any problem? Thanks in advance.

Because you have idiot noobs who find out they can't bug or annoy the devs without 10 posts. So they pull up old...old thread and don't bother reading them.

[Q] Noob Xoom question.

Just got this thing and have been reading but just want a definitive answer to 2 questions.
1: SDCard slot does not work yet?
2: I have the WiFi Xoom, so I can't get data if I put a SIM Card in the SIM slot?
Thanks.
1) Not on the stock Xoom. If you root and install a custom kernel (see development section) you will have access to external SD card.
2) No

Like he told you, the stock 3.0.1 Android, does not support SD neither the 3.1. But whit a "rooted" SO u can do it.
If you need the update and some guide, i can help u. Or if you want to search in the forums its ok.
See ya!
if you go over to the development forums it will tell you how to root and install a kernel that will allow you to use your sd card. Imo it is worth it, and not that hard to do.
As far as the 3g data it would be a pretty labor intensive job, but I think some people are looking at how to do it.

Thanks again for the info. Right now, I am not in need of any extra storage, so I can just wait for Motorola OR root later.

Update ruined my root, what to do?

Yeah yeah i was dumb and whatever, never update when you have root!!!! Warning to newbies!
I googled my problem like 20 times but couldnt quite find any solutions so im asking you guys what to do?
My CWM app says "This version of CWM manager should be used with CF-Root v5.0 or newer. it appears you are running a different kernel. Various features have been disabled."
So i lost superuser abilities after i did an update that was a 8mb file.
What to do? Root it again? or what?

Reason for asking was I didnt want to **** anything else up
Since rooting again, some apps stopped working so I uninstalled them, when i try to install them again, it says there is not enough memory when there clearly is enough memory.

Wrong forum.

first thing would be to post in the correct forum

Well, I am not using an external SD card at the moment, as for the internal SD, are you suggesting that I somehow remove it? I am fairly certain that it is soldered to the board.
Sorry its in the wrong forum, I generally post stuff in general all the time. Seems most people post in general when they have an issue or question. I know, at least for me, this is where I respond to most "help me" posts.
However, I shall get someone to move it.

SD card problem

Hi, new on this section. I didn't root (and hoped not to unless drastic situations appear) and since I didn't get the OTA update for Android 5.0, I got impatient and flashed it. It's all going well until I realise I have less storage than I am supposed to have. This is because I have two sd cards on my storage. Or as ES File Explorer says so. They re storage/emulated/0 and storage/emulated/legacy. Basically, whatever I have is duplicated and doubled. What I add or remove in one goes in the other so deleting one is not an option. Any idea on what I should do?
Thanks. I have root in case you're wondering.
EDIT: Problem is something else. Check page 2. Please help! Thanks.

Its not duplicated at all. 2 paths to the same location.

If that is so, then why does my storage show lesser available space than usual? Why do i "use" 8gb if i only actually used 4gb, thus taking up more of my 12.something GB?

Thread a thread called "sticky roll-up" on general. In there is an info thread about nexus data. There is another thread about /sdcard problems

Let's say he is right. It isn't duplicated. Then is it possible for me to fill up 8GB worth of stuff into my phone? Cuz then the file managers etc. will read as 16GB which is more than the 12.55 GB I have. Therefore transfer incomplete.
Do a factory reset from the boot loader/recovery
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
If you have TWRP or similar, then just wipe the user data partition. Had to do it on mine as it was showing 16Gb instead of 32Gb after flashing the factory image.
Okay, I realised that its not the duplication of my storages that's the problem. It shows I use 11.7 GB when I just use 8GB. Therefore, there is 3.7GB storage taken up by an unknown source. Do I still use the method stated above?
Well? Anything can be done about this problem of mine? 3.7 GB is quite a bit of space out of my 12.55GB.
Bump. I really need help.
