You must mount the external_sd if you have CWM 5 or 6, don´t know about stock recovery as I´ve never seen it..

Hi,
I have a tablet EEE Transformer TF101 build number 8.6.5.21 rooted with CWM Recovery v3.2.0.1-roach2010-tf101-r1 installed but when in the recovery i try to access the sd card (for backup, for example) says "can't mount sd card". I already tried to find solutions such as formatting the sdcard into fat32 but nothing works.
Some help pls?

Not sure if this would work or not, but worth a shot. Have you tried downgrading to 8.6.5.19, then trying?

I'm thinking it has to be external, because it isn't mounting the sd card? I thought cwm always mounts the external card.

It does. External micro-SD card.
Internal SD-card is not supported, at least not with Roach's recovery. Not sure aboutthe XM Rogue recovery, but it seems to sport better support for lots of things, being based on CWM 5.x.x.x.

yes, from a friend of mine and it still doesnt work! ((
How are you formatting the sd card?
Try a program like SD Formatter

go back to Team Rogue Recovery and it will be able to mount both the internal and external SD memory

yes this is true. team rogue-cmw recovery will let you choose between the internal /mnt/sdcard/ and the /Removable/MicroSD/ for your backups. or you could flash a full clockworkmod recovery img and just make nandroid backups with rom manager or rom toolbox pro.

How do you go back to Team rogue recovery if your sd card will not mount? I have tried 4 different micro sd cards. Am I correct that they need to be formatted to fat32? Anything else need to be done to them?
Thanks in advance!!!
ok if youre trying to flash a different recovery.img to the tf101 you dont need a micro sd card at all. remember theres internal storage memory, then theres /mnt/sdcard/ which is also part of the internal memory , if you plug in a micro it will list as /Removable/MicroSD/ it looks as if youre getting them confused. now depending on the recovery it could be called someting else. team rogue recovery will call your internal /mnt/sdcard/ -internal memory- and it will call /Removable/MicroSD/ -sdcard- so it can get tricky. to make it easy you can always do backips to your internal and then copy them over to the microsd later.
had the same problem, try this:

You could try flashing another recovery using easyflash or brk.
Hello,
This is my First thread on XDA
I wasnt sure whether to post it in General Section Or Development Section. So posted it i General Section.
Now its possible to mount NTFS SDcard on our phone
My config:
GLX-R ZCLA1
ardatdat kernel v1.7b1 voodoo
Please test on other ROMS and report below..
Before Proceeding:
Please do this at ur own risk
Steps:
1. Format the sdcard in NTFS using windows.. (Data will be deleted. Dont forget to backup Data)
OR
1. Download EASEUS Partition Manager and use Option "Convert to NTFS" (Data will be saved but still do a backup before formatting)
2. Insert ur NTFS sdcard and start the phone
3. Phone will recognize it as Blank SD card
4. Download The Attached Driver & restart the phone
5. Flash The driver using CWM
6. Start The Phone (Again Phone will recognize it as Blank SD card)
7. Install Terminal Emulator (From Market)
8. Run Terminal Emulator and type the following lines
Code:
su
ntfs-3g /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
vold
9. Wait a few Seconds
10. Now SD card will be mounted as NTFS with Read/Write Capability
NOTE:
Steps 8 to 10 must be repeated after rebooting the phone
NTFS card will be recognized by windows but Steps 8 to 10 must be repeated after Using Mass storage mode
Most of the 3rd Party apps recognize ntfs formatted sdcard without any problems
Files Larger than 4GB can be stored
Use app "Gscript Lite" to place shortcut of the script on homescreen
To Automate steps 8-10 on boot use apps like "Autostart" OR "Script Manager"
(I use Script Manager)
[Known Limitations]
1. The "Blank SD Card notifiction Might not disappear, But dont worry ur sdcard will still be mounted as NTFS at /mnt/sdcard/external_sd
2. Apps previously loaded on SD Card might Not Work.
3. U wont be able to move app to SD Card ("SD Card is full" error will appear)
4. Stock Video Player dont see files from NTFS ( Use MX Player)
5. Stock Music also dont see files from NTFS ( Use players like TTPod or MyMusicOn)
6. Stock Gallery also dont see files from NTFS ( Use PERFECT VIEWER)
7. Stock Camera will be able to take pictures and record videos, but preview is not possible within the app itself. For that use above alternatives apps
This guide is adapted from here.

Well, i have 32gb sd card and unable to store files larger than 4gb seriously pisses me off.. so i use ntfs

Thats nice... can you please tell me.. because my phone memory will soon be over..

Modify vold file and change asec=disable to enable
May not work. Backup first

It doesnt work.. Its the NTFS driver thats mounting the sd card...vold doesnt even recognises the file system (Hence it says blank sd card)..
pudup said:
You could try using winrar to split up a file and then merge it within the sd. Not sure if that works but it's an idea

Why to do that now... we have ntfs support and it allows us to store files larger than 4gb...

Ah I didn't read through your first post properly. Anyway I'll see there can be another way for movement of apps to sd.

ok.. Plz share as soon as you find it.

As for the winrar thing, I don't wanna go through steps 8-10 every time and so this works for me.

I really want to do this, but after i formatted the card to NTFS and put it back in my phone i could'nt read anything from the card and when i booted into recovery to flash the zip file, CWM recovery couldn't read the sd card either.
Am i missing something important? If anyone could help me it would be much appreciated.

Does CWM or TWRP recovery support backup/restore on NTFS cards?
So, using TWRP I formatted 'System' and forgot that I also formatted the SD card so there is no way now to install a new ROM, adb does not work, only fastboot, is there any way to push system or a rom to the SD card using fastboot?
thnks

Mount your SD card in TWRP. Copy over a ROM.

already tried that, computer says needs to format..
Update:
I was afraid that doing a format will damage something, but took the chance, and it was all good, was able to copy a nandroid and restore.
Thanks
Just format fat32 on pc while in twrp. It may even say that it won't mount SD. Check PC and drive shod be there.

Balls! In TWRP I wiped Data and System and now since all my files are gone I can't flash a ROM.
TWRP doesn't recognise my External SD either so what do I do?
When I turn on the tablet I do get 4 options:
Recovery
Android
USB
Download

when you choose recovery, what happens? you may need to reflash TWRP.

It opens up TWRP but from there I can't see my External SD and trying to select the External SD option does nothing. It's formatted at FAT32 and contains a zip for Clean ROM.

Oh, you are using a SD and not a MicroSD? If so, grab a MicroSD if you have one and insert it into the pad, not dock. It WILL see that.

If you can't get it to work, connect it to a PC and use adb to push the zip onto the tablet.
Phew! I fast booted CMW and now flashing CleanROM
Thread Closed, OP got answer and requested this to be closed.
so i got my 64GB samsung sd card for my galaxy note 2, and my phone reads it and all, but when i go into CWM recovery it can't be mounted. so i've been searching all over on how to format it to fat32 but kept getting an error with easeUS partition, and a "this drive is too small for fat32 - there must be at least 64 clusters" using the fat32format method.so i tried to format using the option in recovery, the mounts and storage - format /external_sd. after that i checked to see if it would read it and sure enough i could, but when i reboot my phone it says blank sd, and in root explorer it says the file system is read-only. i'm a little brain dead on what to do now since none of the two fat32 formatters worked for me. any solutions?

I've tried that, through the cmd and from the application itself, both gave me the "this drive is too small for fat32 error" that i mentioned in the OP.
