Ok so i am pure stock, rooted and with CWM. I plug my phone into the pc to put some stuff on the SD card and it doesnt show up. I see the 12gb available on the phone, but i dont see the 32gb sd card. And yes i did change it to USB storage. When i turn off usb storage, it does show up on my card and i can move stuff from phone to the card.
Any idea why it would be doing this?
install kies then remove it to leave just the usb drivers...

I have a micro SD card and a SD card connected to my Transformer/dock. Only the micro SD card shows up in Windows, as the "MicroSD" folder, when connected to my PC despite Android seeing both cards. Other threads mention that a "SD Card" folder should show up, but I don't have any such folder. I'm able to copy files to it on the tablet itself and alotcat shows the system mounting/umounting it when I insert/eject the card. Trying the cards one at a time (SD inserted and micro SD ejected) also didn't help.
I'm running the latest FOTA, completely stock.
I've had this same problem. SD card is inserted in the dock, but when hooked up to my computer, its not accessible. MicroSD card is, but not the one in the dock. Same for External USB devices hooked up to the dock. My guess is that they aren't mounted via the mtp. I tried rebooting the tablet with the card inserted and hooked up but still no go. Running Prime 1.3 and newest firmware for the keyboard.
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
Hi everyone,
I've recently bought samsung galaxy ace 2 phone. And my question is regarding the usb storage and sd card storage. I searched the forum, but couldn't find solution to my problem.
In Galaxy Ace 2, GT-I8160, there are 3 kinds of storage being shown in the phone settings.
1. SD Card (the external sd card, which I've myself inserted in the phone and it is of 8GB)
2. USB Storage which is 1.2GB (which was built in storage I guess)
3. System Storage (which is also of about 1.1GB)
We know in android there are some apps which can be moved to SD Card, not all.
In other phones like my previous phone was HTC, in that phone when I moved an app to SD Card, it was moved to external SD card properly. But in samsung galaxy ace 2, whenever I move any app to SD card, it is moved to the usb storage, and not to the external sd card. And we know the usb storage of this phone is only 1.2GB. I want my apps (which are movable) to be moved to external sd card. What I've noticed, this phone is recognizing the usb storage as sd card.
Even if you go to settings - apps - Sd card, it'll show you the USB storage of 1.2GB, not the storage of my actual external SD card (8GB)
Why is this so? Why is this phone recognizing the usb storage as sd card storage. Why this phone is not recognizing my external sd card as the sd card storage?
Your response will be highly appreciated
Regards,
Omer.
I have the same problem and I just don't know which is which so basically I can't transfer anything.
Do you have the same phone? Samsung Galaxy Ace 2?
I think this is how it works may be. It is treating the USB storage as SD Card and ignoring the external SD card.
This may only be the case with samsung phones, because in HTC, the external sd card was considered as sd card and apps were moved to it.
Anyways I've found the following link regarding this issue, I won't try the solution mentioned in this link, coz it required root and I do not want to root my phone

Try to install samsung kies then connect phone with usb debug on. Troubleshoot to reinstall your usb driver. If this dont work uninstall samsung usb driver at device manager abd connect phone and wait for the computer to make update. Restart pc after process. Ty

i use partition sd card : link2sd
I have been trying to fix this problem for a few hours now with not result.
Last night I went from an one click unbricked stock rom on my infuse to CM10.
Before CM10:
Normally when I plugged the phone into my computer two removable drives would be recognized by my computer but would not be accessible until I triggered the USB storage from the phone. When I do that I would have access to the 16gig internal SD card on the phone which is now sdcard0 and I would also have had access to the 32gig external SD card that I have in the expansion port.
Now:
My computer still has two removable drives pop up when the phone is plugged into the computer. However I can only get into the internal SD card on the phone. When I click the Removable Disk H icon for my external 32 gig SD or sdcard1 I get a please insert disk error.
To sum it up. I am able to transfer files back and forth between the two disks on the phone. I can access everything on each SD card. I still have an external_sd in the file list but it is now just a folder with a few files in it instead of the external sd cards contents being there on the stock rom. For some reason the phone isn't mounting the sdcard1 as its own removable drive when I connect USB storage to my computer.
I am going to continue looking for an answer on my own in addition to what ever help I receive here
Thanks for reading in advance.
Last night, i factory reset my phone, backed everything up to my external sd card and spent most of today restoring all of my files. I had one folder on my computer of pictures and misc. backups left to go. I plugged my phone into my pc and tried to drag them over. I got an error saying my device has stopped responding or has disconnected. Quick google search and i installed an app that let me enable usb mass storage mode. Tried that and it did not work. I put my phone back on MTP mode and plugged into my computer, checked and literally my entire internal and all of my external storage is wiped. What do i do to get these files back? 90% of my backups were on my external card. My phone is a Verizon Galaxy s3 16gb with 16gb external sandisk sd card.
