SD Card Detection Problem - Galaxy 3 Android Development

Hey, I was trying the Lagfix for Galaxy 3. And When I try to connect the sd card through USB via my phone. The Computer doesn't detect it. I have been trying.
I used MiniTool Partition to make the partitions for ext2. Then I formatted. And by Mistake I think I put the Major amount of storage in FAT and minor in Ext2. And afterwards, my Computer stopped detecting my SD card.
Can Anyone please help me with this?
I'll be the happiest guy thn!

partition

i am trying to flash thyrough my memory card....i have a 1gb sandisk sd card.....i hear something about partition but have no idea what to do please help
PC Partitioning.
The first to do is understand what it is. Then we can actually do it. Other than that, this is NOT a development post. It needs to be moved to the proper sub forum.
Your SD card needs to be FAT32. (Right click on the card while using a card reason and choose partition (if you're in windows.)

[Q] SDcard not recognized [SOLVED]

Hi this is my second time coming across this problem, and I'm posting after searching/ googling for an answer. Any help is appreciated.
-I took my factory 16bg micro sd card out of my phone and put it into an SD card adapter which i then placed in my computer.
-using W7 and easus partition master i formatted the card to fat32
-when placed in my phone, the card is not recognized under settings or in cwm
-The card is fully working under linux and windows.
-I rewrote my backup of my sdcard to the newly formatted card thinking the addition of androidsecure would fix the problem. It didnt.
-I reformatted with windows a few times with no avail.
Again, any help would be appreciated as I am at a lost and would not like to have to start over with odin.

EDIT: Problem solved with Panasonics SD card formatting utility. It did a quick format that took all of 3 seconds. Popped it in my phone and it worked.
-I hate opening and immediately closing a thread, so my apologies.
Try reformatting through your phone.
Settings > SD card and phone storage > unmount SD card > format SD card

When I go to that tab under settings, mount sd and format sd are grayed out. It says to insert an sd card. Any thoughts?
Try formatting to fat, not fat32. I think your phone will recognize it afterward and then you can use the phone format tool.
I know that this thread is marked solved, but I had a similar problem that this solution didn't clear up. I re-formatted the sdcard in the phone but, when I boot into recovery, CWM still can't mount it ("Error mounting /sdcard"). This means I can't make a backup, which is going to be a prerequisite for trying out a new rom.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
same issue...
I am having the same issue. I have CWM up but it will not mount the SD card, can't seam to find any real straight forward answer. Any help would be vary helpful.

Damaged SD Card

Hi guys,
My phones micro-sd card has been acting strange and was not being recognized at times by my phone. I then proceeded to put it in its SD card adapter and put it in my Mac and got an error saying the card was unreadable. I then put it in a reader on my PC and everytime I try to access the drive it gives me the 2 errors, "You need to format the drive...etc" and after clicking cancel it says that my drive is an unrecognized file format.
Recuva says it can't read the boot sector and running chkdsk gives me the message that the file format is RAW.
Just tried running ReclaiMe file recovery and it says the card is only 30.6MB while it is actually a 32GB card.
Do you guys think there is any hope? Or should I just move on?
Any help would appreciated. Got a lot of pictures and music I would love to save on the drive, plus ROM backups.
Thanks so much
Bump
I've killed an SD card before.. not sure how.. it had been partitioned EXT3 for a rom on a desire.. then re-formatted to normal..
but the problem came months after without notice one day the camera was failing and the gallery wouldn't open..
I tried a new SD card and things were fine so I figured the SD card died
Try to use MiniTool Partition Wizard on your pc, and delete ext partition and swap stay only on fat32. if that does not work format your card to exfat. If that doesn`t work try use program "winhex"(before i used it, my computer hadnt read my card). I repaired my card 3 times these methods.
You can use this ONLY on memory card reader.

SD card bad disc?

Hello, I when I tried to partition my sd card using MiniTool Partition Wisard to create two partition (20GB with filesystem ext2 and 10 GB with FAT32) it shows me that the partition process was successful. However, I could not see the SD card on my computer (it should show the partition with filesystem FAT32). Okay, therefore, I decided to remove the card from the computer. And when I inserted it back to the PC, it still can't show the card. Therefore, I decided to open the MiniTool Partition Wisard to see what happened. And it says that my SD card has Bad Disk filesystem. Also, when I insert the card into the phone, its says that my SD card is blank. What when wrong? Isn't the partition successful? What can I do?

SD card problem

So my Pantech Burst P9070 is having issues. In clockwork mod recovery (cwm) it said my SD card couldn't mount so I tried formatting it. Well apparently I must have done something wrong during the formatting process because my SD card (internal) is no longer detectable by my phone or computer. My phone shows a notification saying that my SD card is damaged and needs to be formatted but when i press the button to format it, my phone says that the SD card is removed, but I do not even have an external SD card so I am confused. Please Help!!!:crying::crying:
Don't panic. If you are trying to use your sd card for songs, apps, photos etc, then just go into windows or any other partition manager, do a FULL wipe and make sure its FAT 32. If you also want to increase your internal storage visit my thread Hope this helps.
But how am I even suppose to use the windows or any other partition manager if my SD card isn't detected by my phone or computer?
Disk Management
Look in the Disk Management Tool in Windows Vista or above.
If you don't have that or it doesn't detect it you can download a disk partitioning tool to do the job.
It none of the tools work from Windows verify that the card is unmounted in Settings and try formatting it form Android.
