sd card - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How to i see my sd card on my computer so i can put things onto it? Im rooted and have cmw

It's under "removable" and you will see "microsd." Also, if you end up not being able to mount it, make a partition on your uSD card and that will probably solve the problem..

only thing to show up is the the internal storage. How do i creat a partition?

Ok i found the sd card. Its under device storage. It wont let me put anything on it though

All im wanting to do is put a custom rom on my sd card so i can flash it.

Make sure that your SD card is formatted in a way that your computer can read it. For best compatibility, format it as FAT32. You'll probably need to plug it into a computer in order to do this, which probably defeats the point in trying to do this using the device as a huge SD card reader.
Also, if your card -is not- the microSD card, make sure that it is not ticked to the 'lock' direction. On normal sized SD cards, there is a moveable nub.
Check to see if you can write files to the SD card FROM the Transformer. If you can, the alternative is to download the rom file to your Transformer, and then put it on the SD card from there.
Bumping your thread/making multiple subsequent posts won't make it so that you receive assistance quicker. If anything, it will make people ignore you because You are a Noob. You hate yourself(azrienoch, YouTube, 2011).

i can see it fine on the transformer. Could it be something wrong with cmw. How do i reformat it.

Plug your SD card into the computer, and use your disk management software that ships with your computer. If you're on Mac OS X, use Disk Utility. If you're on Linux, use cfdisk or fdisk.

On my machine(windows xp), if in windows explorer I click on
Transformer TF101 - Portable Media Player,
I get two different options
Internal Storage or Micro SD
This was after an update to the ASUS sync software though.
Originally I could only see the MicroSD was through
Internal Storage->MicroSD
When accessed through the tranformer, this is not writable. This is a limitation of sd cards. You can't have two hosts with write access.
The other way is to put it in internal storage, then use the transformer's File manager and copy from the SDcard, and move it to /Removable/MicroSD

Ok the sync program i downloaded is not in english. Its the one fromthewebsite too

Can you clarify if it is a SDCard(in the dock), or a microSD card(in the tablet)?
You can't see the dock storage from a pc, I believe. I also think you can't install roms from the dock.

Sorry i probably didnt know what the dock meant then.
It is in my tablet. I plug it into the computer. If i go to computer and look at it it says. Asus Transformer tf101. Click on it again and it says device storage and thats it. Its like it cant see my sd card at all. Is there a way to go into usb mode or something so my pc can see it? Also on my sd card all it says is lost. something. Shouldnt there be more since i rooted it. I got su functions

I think that you should be able to see it through internal storage, either Removable folder, or microsd folder.
If not, just copy it to the internal memory, and cut/paste it through the transformer file manager

Micro SD card unreadable after trying to format it

Today i was attempting to partion my SD card so i can install more applications on my phone(i hate the low internal memory i have). Anyhow, i used this tutorial to get it done, and now my SD card wont be recgonized by either my pc or phone, i tried booting into recovery in my phone and partion it trough recovery, all i got was "Mounting of SD card failed!". On Pc it actually picks up that thre is an SD card inserted, but wont read it.
I realize that i need to format it, but there is no option to do so on PC, or at least i cant find it, im guessing a special programm might be needed.
Any ideas?

[Q] Erase data from bad microSD card?

Hi,
I have a 32GB microSD card that some how got corrupted transferring files between my Windows 7 PC and my Asus TF300 Android tablet. Fortunately, it is a SanDisk card and they are willing to replace it for me, but there was personal information on that card and I would rather they not try to recover the files on that card or even have access to them.
As far as I can tell, the on-board controller is bad, but all of the actual data is still just sitting there on the card. So far, I haven't been able to access the files or format the card with Windows, Linux, or Android, both in a microSD slot on a tablet/phone or in a card reader with an SD adapter. Most of the time, the device won't even recognize it as a valid SD card and when it does, I get an I/O error. Windows "Format" tells me that it has an "unknown size" and can't do anything with it.
Most of the information I have found tells me what to do with corrupt files, but not a corrupt card. Does anyone know of either a way to recover the card or any way to erase the data without having access to the card itself?
Thanks,
Don

Problems viewing files

I have a Shield tablet K1 which I’ve rooted and everything seemed to be ok.
That is until I allowed it to format a 64 gig card and move some apps to it.
Before doing that I could transfer files to the tablet and or to a card in the tablet via USB.
Now I can no longer see the tablet but I can see and transfer files to the newly formatted card.
I’ve tried all the obvious things such as reboot, USB on off USB file transfer method etc.
I’ve also noticed that I no longer have the option to un-mount the card and even with the card removed I still cannot see the files in the tablet.
Any thoughts and or suggestions?

You probably formatted the SD card as internal memory (new feature in MM). The card gets encrypted then. You have to format it as removable memory.

MM is slow.

Need help with transferring date from one microSD card to another?

I'm getting a new microSD card for my SHIELD Tablet. The card I have inside currently is being used as adoptable storage. I want to transfer everything from that card to a new one I'm getting. Is there a simple way to backup everything and just have it auto reinstall or something like this? I don't want to have manually reinstall everything if I don't have to. Also i am not rooted.
Someone mentioned something about cloning SD cards for a raspberry pi, so would this potentially work for a micro SD card?

if anyone could provide assistance, that would be helpful
I don"t think you can clone adopted sd card. It has two partitions: 1st 16mb(infos, fat32), 2nd rest gb, ext4, encrypted. New sd card has another name & s.n., it will be not recognized.
You can move all apks you can to internal memory, rest of data copy to PC. You can use google backup too.
Set old card as public, eject it and insert new. Set it as adopted and copy data back from PC.
I think you can loose something from the folder /Android.
Without root & twrp backup&restore everything is impossible. @toph the earthbdner

Using micro sd from android 6.0 on an android 5.1 device.

I am wanting to use my micro SD as the title indicates without formatting and losing all the data. I Would really appreciate anyone who can help.
I'm pretty sure you can insert the same sd card to any device and be able to access it. If anything, backup the information in your sd card first in case anything happens

Move the files from the microSD to PC then after the files are removed, put the microSD in the new device and format it, then after its formatted, move your files from PC to microSD.
If you don't have a PC, put the microSD in another device then move the files from microSD to that devices internal storage then remove the microSD and put it in the new device then format the microSD using that device, then remove the microSD and put it back in the device that you moved the files to and move the files back to microSD then remove it from that device and put it back in the new device, then you'll have all of your data on that device.
