I recently installed cm7 On my phone and it says that my SD Card is damaged and can't be read, so I formatted it and it still can't be read,does anyone know how to fix this
what i find fixes mine is, going to my computer and right clicking on the sd card and go to property, then scan and fix errors.
I also experience this issue on a regular basis. I think the issue is with formatting, and the way i always fix it is reformatting in windows to FAT32. If i format in Mac it never works, has to be windows. It makes no sense, but thats my experience with the problem.

when i first flashed cm7 i saw that and it scared the crap out of me. I went to settings-storage and re-mounted the sd card and it was dandy.
I formatted my 16gb card in a digital camera and, it worked fine after that.
Read the cm7 first post

I just popped my sd card out and inserted it and everything was fine after that.

I have done this also - try that first. If another device reads the card OK - it does not need reformatting.
That happened to mine too...Need to buy another 8gb one.
I just pop it out and back in and it usually wakes back up but sometimes it takes a reboot

So my 16g sd card suddenly stopped working one day. It won't let me write anything to it or delete anything.
I tried on my computer to format it, but it doesn't work. I know it's not my phone cause my other sd works just fine.
Any ways if someone could help me find a fix for the stupid sd card that would be awesome. I this 8g isn't big enough please help.

Have you tried formatting it from your phone? Sometimes, formatting it on your computer doesn't work. If formatting it from your phone does not work, you may have a bad sd card. :/
Good luck!

Yes, try downloading a bootable gparted image, burn it on cd or set it up on an sdcard, and try to format it with that.
Maybe it will work with that, else you have to return it to the shop if it still has warranty.
Had the Sensation since launch and loved it from the start. But in August I got this mysterious SD card removed. And it would never detect the SD card again. No matter what I did. Removing it. Factory reset. The only solution that worked was it could detect any other SD card but that one. So I used my spare. And now it has happened again.
I cannot fix it and out of spares so I turn to you. Is there a solution for this?
In the event that there isn't a solution I'm fine with using my phone storage(Only used SD for music) but I cannot set the phone storage as the default for anything. It always says SD card needed.
But ony brothers Amaze he got the SD card error like I did. But his phone automatically switched to phone storage.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried reformatting the sd card?
I don't have the connector for connecting the SD directly to the computer
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
Weird situation, can't even reformat in your phone? See if anyone around has one to lend you and reformat it if possible!
I've Google searched the problem and s couple of other people have had this problem too. But no solutions.
Is there any way to make the phone storage the default storage??

If it helps when I insert the SD card it says preparing. Then right after it says SD removed. And that's that

I got the same problem today and i can't use my sd-card
Edit: After connecting my card to the computer and fixing issues with the files on the card, my phone is accepting the card again
Will backup important files and format the SD Card for best performance and to get rid of old unused files.
Hi guys im having an issue with a 32gb Kingston sd card, whats happening is that everytime i add files to my sd card from my computer it will show them to me that they are there. But once i put the sd card in my phone the new files i transfer wont appear :/. Ive formatted my sd card already like couple times and still does the same. Never did that to my 8gb card, and top of that when i transfer all my data from the 8gb to the 32 only half transferd and when back n fourth doing it folder per folder and just wouldnt show anything on the phone. Any suggestions, thank you

Going to take a guess and say you're on CM? If so I had problems with my 32GB too but on stock roms it works. I had to get a 16GB to use under CM. I'm not sure of the problem but there was my fix

Are you rebooting the phone after putting back the microsd? Sometimes that works.

As matter fact havent tried on Cm, im on MIUI right now. But im giving it one more try with the formatting see what happens if not will go to Eagle Blood see how that goes.
Yeah im since i noticed my sd card wouldnt show up unless would have to reboot. some files have been transfering but like awhile ago i d-loaded the files that needed for the game Modern combat 2 and after finished i rebooted or just quit playing and tried playing again and have to be redowloading the files over and over again since nothing stays on my sd card :/

That sucks, sounds like a bad sdcard. You still got the receipt?
I got my 32gb lexar class 10 with USB SD reader for just under 50 and its been issue free. Never liked Kingston products.

Tried formatting it using the phone itself? Miui is based off cm7 so that could be the issue as well.

Won't let me format it from phone since as soon as I put it in tells me "safely to remove card now" so kinda like automatically ejectects itself when I put it in. N got another problem :/ I bitlocked the sd card in my windows 7 laptop and as I was transferring files my wire was loose and we'll lost the connection and of course gave me files transfer error. But the problem now is that since I bitlocked the sd card won't let me get in it anymore, even though i put my password I put for the sd card. Just says something error with files and blah blah ;/. Can't even format or or anything anymore ;/

Moving from Weapon X to Miui rom my sdcard was detected fine but then after a couple of days of using Miui I wasn't able to open up sdcard when connected to my pc. It shown that usb is detected on my phone.
It only work when I restore back to WeaponX. I tried flashing different Miui roms, EagleBlood and PhoenixBlood. None detect my sdcard on pc except for WeaponX. I also tried to format my sdcard. Didn't work.
Anyone got any suggestion??
Try reinstalling ure usb drivers or not just restart the computer that would help with me. Or have you tried it with a card adapter?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
If you've tried it both with the USB cord and with an sd card reader, it might just be a bad sd card. This happened to me with a Samsung 16gb. I couldnt add or delete anything on it. Simply had to get a new sd card. Try out Lexar or PNY if you want a good one.

Ok maybe I'm missing somthing but I got my new sd card tonight and formated it on the computer. Then put it in the slot and it not showing up. I did a fat32 format. The card is a sandisk class 10 32gig. Any ideas? as alway you guys are awesome. Thanks for the help

I can put the card in my dx and it works fine but put it back in the s3 and nothing. I'm running synergy anybody thinks that has something to do with it. Maybe I'll try a different rom. Any ideas?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
first try reflashing synergy. Something funky may have happened when you flashed the Rom.
If that does not work go back to stock and see if it will work on the stock rom, heck it is always worth a try. If this doesn't work, it may have been the formatting done by your computer that has made it incompatible.
If nothing works, take it back to the store you bought it from ( if you bought it from a store x.x) and just get an exchange because it is technically a faulty product to you right now.
Also, it may be inconvenient, but please list more info. What version of Synergy? What kernel are you running? Either of these could be the problem.
I will try to re flash ASAP... I'm running synergy rom nightly r53. And the kernel that came with it. I just got this 32gig class 10 card but my 16gig from my dx did not work either. I never tried before I rooted it. Hope flash will help.

All these threads I see about cards not being able to be mounted - can't you just format the card in the phone itself and then mount and use it?
That's how we got the 64 gig sandisk cards to work in the mytouch 4g slide - and when I took that card out of it and put it in the SGSIII it was immediately usable, didn't have to format or anything.
Why have I not seen mention of trying this - did I just miss it or is "format card" greyed out under storage options?

Do we know what's wrong with the format option in the phone then?
I phrase it that way because my over a year old htc device can prep the cards to work in the SGSIII - so thia device should be able to do it too.
If going from gingerbread to ics means losing critical functions like this, think I need a tally of all the missing features gingerbread offered before calling the upgrade progress...
...or is this samsungs fault and a device specific problem?

Has anything changed on your setup? As in maybe you flashed a new ROM or reformatted the card, etc??
If not then I suggest you remove the sdcard and see if you can mount it on a PC using a card reader. If the PC can't read the sdcard either then its probably corrupted and needs to be reformatted or replaced.
If it's a Sandisk card and a Samsung device that might be the issue. You can "google" it and will find that some people are having issues with that combination. I personally don't seem to be affected by this issue. I have Sandisk in both my S3 and Note 10.1 and have yet to encounter any problems.
I would do what the other person posted and if it reads fine in your computer it might be the issue I mentioned.
