Often times a damaged sd card can be repaired by formatting in another device such as an external card reader, camera, or other phone however as noted all data will be lost. You could attempt to clone the disk using WinHex, saving the data to a file, reformatting the card and then attempt to retrieve the data manually.
PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

yeah, but it is not working. I tried to reformat/wipe it on my pc, but then it says something like the card timedout.
then i tried to format it on his and my nexus one, but it is not working. it says that the card is blank. Maybe it is but i am still seeing the contents when i look at it on my computer.
oh yeah, i could see everything on my pc, but when i try copying over the data it says 'path is too deep'
i also tryied to partition it using cwm and amon ra, but no luck.
anything else.....i should try?
Do you have Swapper for Root or anything similar? That is probably the cause.

I can not get the external SD card to work. It worked at first when I got the phone but now nothing happens when I try to mount it....I can format it within the phone and it even shows up as the folder "sd" within Astro but I can't move files to it at all on the phone or by drag/drop on the PC...
Anyone else with this issue or a known way to fix it?

Have you tried a different card or tried the card on your PC? Do both the internal and external storage drives come up when you connect to the PC? My Captivate once gave me a no external SD message when there was one in there. Took it out, reseated it and it was fine.
It worked when I put it in the first time but ebert since I took it it when doing a restore with odin 3 it doesn't work anymore not even with stock firmware

Is this a name brand card (Sandisk, Kingston, etc?) or a noname special? The cheap cards have high failure rates. You could try a PC USB reader, but you may have a dud.
Try a friends card and see, just to rule out your phone SD port.
So I had rooted my phone no problem, been using it for over 2 months now. Again, no problem what so ever. I've just installed CM7 on my mytouch 4g slide and noticed a lot of bugs that still needed to be worked out. so I wiped my phone clean and restored it to an earlier date. After I did that, my sd card has been giving me an error as stated "SD card blank or unsupported filesystem." I've tried formatting it, other SD cards and nothing works. is there anyone that can help?!
i wouldn't know how that happened to your sdcard, but when you say you tried formatting it, how did you format it? i once got an sdcard from an ebay purchase, and it gave me that very same message and was unusable(and formatting it with the phone wasn't working). i made it usable by formatting it with a program called SDFormatter, which i downloaded free for Windows. took a montrously long time for the format, but once it was done, the sdcard was fine.
that sucks that you seem to have lost all your stuff tho?
Try flashing a different ROM. The CM7 we have is still in alpha. Give Team Douche time to work out the bugs.
the problem doesn't seem to be the SD card. because all the data was still there. I tried using another SD card thinking maybe that was the problem but it gave me the same error.
I've already factory reset my phone and its still showing the same problem
Could be dust in the SD card slot or some other debris. Try a little bit of compressed air..

I installed the SDFormatter program you mentioned and formatted my wife's 16gig card. Prior to the format the card wouldn't mount in either of our phones and very sporadically on the PC. Now the card will mount without a problem and is usable again.
Thanks bud,

awesome, glad it worked for you also
I was going to post this in the AOKP rom page but i figured it'd get seen more here and maybe its not even a problem related to the rom. I recently installed the AOKP rom located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831858. everything was great the first day then i started getting random reboots and losing my data. So I flashed a back up and still got the same problems. I lost my data yesterday, fixed that by manually changing the APN settings and everything was fine other than still getting random reboots. today I went to take a picture and it says "no external storage". I opened root explorer and I can access my EXTERNAL SD card but not the INTERNAL. I tried to mount in via the setting, storage menu and it wont mount. Also tried mounting in CWM recovery, no dice.
Is this a hardware problem or something software related? Anyway to get my stuff back or is it gone? I thought about trying to format it through recovery but how can I do that if it wont mount? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm about to go through and install a "clean" copy of this ROM hopefully. Or I might try another ROM I know works like it should.
Installed a new Rom. Everything works perfect so far but still can't access my internal sd card. Any tricks how to get this back or do I need to just turn it in for warranty?

Warranty may be your best solution, you'll have to revert to stock using kies/odin which may on it's own fix your issue.
Are you also receiving the "Blank USB storage or has unsupported file system" error?
I have been battling this issue for a friend of mine (I own only the I9300) and I believe I have somewhat of a fix. It will allow you to use an external SD card.
If you can use / access the external SD card on your phone then disregard this message.
If you can't access any of the storage, including the external SD card try following this short tutorial I made:

Im still able to use my external sd card. I can read and write to it from both phone and pc.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
The internal SD card is essentially part of the motherboard. If it's corrupted, you have no choice but to warranty the phone out. Kishke's right in that restoring to stock might be your last, best chance.
My SD card is in one or another way corrupt, I think. The system apps won't read the SD card. It's very strange, because I can browse the whole card on my computer and in ES File Explorer too. The Camera app can store images captured with the device, but not view them ...
I've tried to fix it with flashing ViperS 1.3.5 over my ROM again without wiping to see if there were any corrupted systemfiles, but no. That didn't work. So I mounted the SD card to my PC and backed it up, re-partitionated it and copied the backup back to the SD card. Still, the same problem is there. So I rebooted my phone into Recovery (4ext), tried to fix the permissions from there, and nothing worked. I checked the partition aligment and it showed me that the Fat32 partition was not perfectly aligned. So I deleted all partitions from the SD card using recovery (Fat32 and Ext4) and re-partitionated it from there, both Fat32 and Ext4.
Then, I tested the partition aligment and it showed me that both partitions was perfectly aligned. I rebooted and hoped it should work now, but no.
So this is pretty frustrating. Is the WHOLE SD card corrupt or something? My phone manages to load all my apps from the Ext4 partition, so I don't think that's the problem.
PLEASE!!! HELP!!!!!
The problem seem to have fixed itself ...! It's very strange, because almost every time I'm starting new [Q] Threads, the phone fixes itself... Strange -.- But, can someone tell me what caused the problem if it appears again?

Very strange I'm not sure what the issue was. I know with my SD card it showed corrupt or damaged SD but yet ran perfectly on my card reader.I formatted on my computer but still said damaged card. so I figured I needed to format through recovery yet when I tried to go to recovery it would say SD card needed. So I ended up pulling battery And getting into recovery that way then I was able to format. After I formatted from recovery the card was once more able to be detected and the error message stopped. It is a 64 gig. Maybe somehow your card wasn't formatting correctly. But how it fixed itself is very strange. I know in my case I thought I had a bad or damaged card because it kept saying damaged and was not able to be recognized because it needed to be correctly formatted even though I'd formatted it on the computer before hand. Maybe in your case it was an issue like that? Not sure but glad you got your issue fixed. SD cards can be touchy sometimes. In my case I had to format twice before it was recognised.

Dude, I'm going to get you to post threads about my problems too and see if they miraculously cure!
Maybe you should make a thread about a problem with you bank account because it doesn't have $10,000,000 in it! See if that's suddenly fixed. hahaha
As for the SD Card, did it suddenly work right after a reboot? Anyway I agree with Realsis. You can probably cure this problem for good by formatting the SD card, even if it's working now. Just save the contents to your computer first so you don't lose everything.
Hello all and everyone who may be able to help me out! I recently got a new phone (galaxy nexus) and decided to root and s-off my evo 3d. After another sad fail at s-off, my sd card was acting up. When its in a phone, it will say the card is blank or it is using an unsupported file system. Upon formatting option nothing happens. When i insert the sdcard into an adapter and put it into my computer, i can navigate to my computer and when i try to get into the drive, "my computer" crashes and i have to remove the card to get back to the start screen. I can use the drive for other things but it just wont read this card and makes the computer freeze. ive tried programs and whenever i try to select the drive, again the program im using crashes. Other cards work fine so it seems the card itself is the problem. worked fine before. Can anyone help me out here?
Had a similar problem a while back seems i had forgot to remove the password before plugging the card into my pc. Not sure how that will help you here tho.
replace the card and check if it is working than the card is defected

Is your phone able to read/detect your card?
If yes then:
Go to Phone Settings> Storage Settings> Unmount SD card> Erase SD card.
Report if that works.
If it's dead, most reputable manufacturers offer a warranty on their cards. Go to their website & look up the procedure for getting an RMA. That's much cheaper than buying a new card.

When the cards in my phone, it gives a notification saying that is an unsupported file system or that it is A blank SD card. When it is in the phone it will not let me erase. when I select Format, it's just kind of stops. and if I select it again, nothing. Can't use unmount or mount as they are greyed out. Wish I could format it.

I had a similar problem figuring out that moving Apps to external sd and then removing this sdcard CAN DESTROY the sdcard controller - better unmount card then remove it or switch phone off and remove it !
Even more worst - it's still working sometimes on any PC with adapter - if you have warranty on that sdcard i would replace it in the store bought !

Maybe i had luck - but since the failure i have been very carefully !
Nowadays sdcards should beeing built that writing more than 100000 times should be possible - so such an error should also not occur
but what the sdcards are very sensitive is heat - temperatures above 55 ° C (131 F) is almost a no go! (or increasing failure rate drastically !)

No when this failure appears - formatting is not possible anymore - the "controller" inside the sdcard is defect !

Just by replying with some information your helping me out. I have tried many SD card repair tools but when the card is in my computer, and if I do anything related to the card, the program just crashes until I pull the card out. I will post a video later. I've never seen this before. If nothing works I'm just gonna get another.
