Hi,
Long press ,and delete the one you want.
And you do what the guy above me said using an file explorer.
My all time favorite has been : OI File Manager

Hi,
I use ES File Explorer,available from the market.
When you open the app,it takes you straight to the root of your sd card.
Scroll down to the ROM/kernel that you want to delete.
Long press it,and then select "Delete".
If you're on your computer just turn onto disk drive / mass storage and delete. But if you're not just download file explorer app from play store.
I'm using Astro File Manager

Yes you can also delete using es file explorer. Simply long press on the item you want deleted through es, a menu will pop up, delete from there. I use es to delete my unwanted items of off my sd card often. It's quite convenient.

If I want to remove everything on a sd card can I just go into recovery then go into wipe and just hit format sd card.

Hi,
Bare in mind that the sd card contains all your backups,and saves.
It is best to make a copy of your sd card onto your PC,then format it in the PC to FAT 32.
When you put your card back into your phone,Android will put back the files it needs.

In a file explorer such as astro or even the stock explorer "my files" hold down on the desired file to be moved and select copy and paste it to the external as card. There should also be an option to select multiple files when you hit the menu button.

I recently switched to a sense rom from my usual cm7. Now, my sd card wont mount via usb, apps cant accesss sd data files, camera says no sd is present. Samba is the only way i can access sd content.
Is there a way i can attempt to repair this before im forced to reformat??
Thanks

Take out your sd card and place in a card reader via your PC. then browse and open up the sd card and copy all the folders to your hard drive. Afterwards right click on the sd card and click format. Do a full format not a quick one. Begin copying back over the folders from before. Done.
Thank you, that's what I ended up having to do

Hi,
Back up everything you need first.
It is probably better to format it on your PC if you can.
Make a select all/copy/paste to a folder on your PC.
That way you keep everything .
Format to FAT 32,and replace your important docs,pics,music,films,etc.
Put back in your phone,and android will replace all the files it needs.
Voila.
All I'm trying to do is clear a 2 Gig sd card that I only use to put roms on that I flash onto my phone.so basically I don't need to back up that stuff because I will never need it again correct?the roms,apps and kernels that I have backed up in in my 4 ext touch recovery will those be erased when U format my sd card?

Hi,
Yes,the nandroid backups you have done will get wiped if you format the card.
They are in a folder called "clockworkmod"
These will all get saved to your PC when you plug the card into the PC,press select all/copy/paste to a folder on your PC.
Can I save my back ups by using titanium back up?are only by the previously way that you just mentioned?so basically whatever sd card is in your phone at the moment that you are doing a back up the back ups are saved to that particular sd card only?Because I only backed up roms,kernels when I had my 8 Gig sd card in my phone.I didn't do any back ups when I had my 2 Gig sd card in so since I'm wanting to clear my 2 Gig sd card completely nothin needs to be backed up because I never backed up any roms,etc with that sd card in my phone.so I go to go then just hit format sd card sibce I never did any back ups on it?Is this all correct?

If you decide to wipe sd card make sure your not on an aosp rom or aokp there is a bug which makes your device bricked for good... And just to be on the safe side back it up on the pc first and go ahead

Yes it can be done get on a sense rom and boot into recovery and wipe sd card but I think it will make you loose recovery not sure tho someone confirm before you go ahead..
Don't rush mate let's just wait for someone to confirm just in case..

I completely understand.I will see if someone can verify if that will or will not happen.

Hi, you can format the sd card without booting recovery at all. Just go to the settings, then storage, and then format the sd from there. No worries of formating the other partitions.
Also, if you use file managers to back up your stuff, make sure you get it on another sd card, or the phone itself. If not, you will just lose it when you format
Hope I've helped you

P,s, the roms only show up when I put the sd card in that was in while I was downloading the roms.But when I put another sd card in I cannot find them...

Hi did you look in the download file?

Yeah!!! A couple of the roms are in the downloads but they all show up when the sd card that I had in the phone while I was downloading them in the es file folder.why when I put a new sd card in my phone there not in the es file folder?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA
I can't believe you aren't trolling.
Anyway, get the first SD Card (which you downloaded ROMs on) in, connect the phone to PC in disk drive mode, copy the ROMs onto PC.
Then get the other SD Card in, connect phone to PC in disk drive mode & transfer the ROMs to the SD Card.
I would if I had a pc.

Put the SD with the ROMs in.
Use ES File Explorer to copy to root of the device (One ROM at a time if it's Sense ROMs because they're huge).
Put in the new SD Card & use ES File Explorer to copy it from root to new SD Card.
Repeat for all the other ROMs.
Same thing can be done with Terminal Emulator if you prefer using commands rather than a file explorer.

Hi,
Yes, you will!
First copy all the sd card info onto your PC.
Format to FAT 32.
Put back your music,photos,saves,and backups(titanium,clockworkmod,etc.)
Then,put the card in the phone,and Android will put on the files it needs.
Could someone please explain how to do this process. Thanks!!!

if you have a card reader just put the sdcard onto it
connect it via usb in the pc and do format from there
it is better
don't forget to copy all your files,data etc in your pc first

I assume you mean how to copy all the files....
I think you are using 4EXT recovery from other posts (correct me if I'm wrong).
Boot into recovery (because the USB transfer speeds are faster than CM10 that I think you are using)
connect your phone to your computer via USB
mount USB storage, create a new folder on your computer desk top
select all files and folders from the SD card and drag and drop them into the new folder on your desk top that you just created
wait about 10-15 minutes for it to complete
format SD card from the computer
Copy all your files back to the SD card the same way
wait another 10-15 minutes
boot the phone and your apps should find all their related data right where they left it
So basically if I was to format my sd card without backing up or saving anything I would just lose all my downloads that are on my sd card and my sd card will be completely clean.Is this all correct.and I will lose everything that I have backed up on titanium back up as well? Thanks in advance!!!

Yes.
Yes sadly you will loose everything! I just went through this process myself with a new 64 sd card.I wish you the best. I simply formatted in recovery but I had to pull battery to get to recovery otherwise it said sd card needed to get to recovery.until I formatted it wouldn't recognize my sd card. Once I formatted it was recognized .
