I am running cm7 and everything is running great. The only little hiccup I have is that I can only access one of my SD cards. With the stock File Explorer and Linda, only the internal SD is showing, and the External_SD folder empty.
Under cm7 settings>applications, there is an option to switch SD cards, but all that does is reverse what is show in the file explorer.
Both SD cards are available when I plug into the PC, but this is annoying having to manually change settings. It wasn't like this with stock 2.3.3.

External SD isn't used by cm7 you have emmc, which is your internal SD and SDcard which is your external sd

Wow, nvm. I got it figured out, had to do a little exploring.
My next task; browsing LAN network via wifi with Linda manager. Is this possible to access my home computer's hard drive from my phone? Looks like i need a host ip and password with Linda.

I just bought a g2x today and its rooted and unlocked. Completely stock. I have an external SD in it but when I use astro or any other file manager I can't see my files. If I boot into clock work I can see the files from install from debut with programs to viewing files nothing shows up. Help please. Thank you.

In Astro, in the SD folder, if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you'll see an External SD folder.

Try removing the memory card and reading it directly from a computer. If you can see the contents, copy whatever you need out of it. put it back into the phone. Format. reboot and see if the phone reads it right. If it does, drag and drop whatever you backed up

Download photorec.
You can recover your SD card as long as you don't copy anything over to it
OK thanks where do I download it. I'm searching for it in the market and it's not finding it

Google it, it's a windows/linux/mac program.
So after having put my droid x sd card from a while back into the sgs3, the error with the blank sd card notification came up. I put the sd card into the computer and it still says must format before i can even open it. What if any software or recovery program can recover the files if possible at all or did i just lose everything permanently.
sounds like its corrupt
Try a program called testdisk on your computer to see if it's recoverable.

Do I need to copy any system files, I'm using cm9 with herring. I see system files with some of those names on my sd card.
Sent from my SGH-T959V
Do you have any apps installed in there? If not you should be OK. The system's files should automatically be created later.

Got a new 32gb class 10 card. So I copied old sd card to comp then copied to new card. Everything went fine , but once I reboot the phone, about half of the data goes into a folder called lost.dir and several folders appear with random lettering for names. No matter what method I use to transfer my days it does this. I've formatted in the phone. I've formatted in the comp . Neither my phone or comp day card is corrupted it seems ok. Has any one seen this before?

You said you've tried formatting several times. Just to check, did you do FAT32?

Just for debugging purposes, what happens if you insert your sd into the computer after booting once on the phone?

Its almost like every folder I add below the lost directory folder goes crazy and ends up in lost.dir going too try something and see if this works
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
So this is what I've found. No matter what files I add to the card the Minn I go over 3.75 gb and restart the phone the files that are over that amount get broken up into the lost.dir and folder replaces it with a u in front of since this is a 32gb card I'm betting the card is no good
