I've seen this error elsewhere, but no solution. I'm running PRIME 1.4, want to upgrade to 1.6.
- I used the nvflash method. I re-did this, obviously that didn't work.
- I tried formatting the SD card via Windows and via CWM (which didn't work, because it couldn't mount it...duh). Used the default FAT32 settings to format. For others, this seemed to be the fix.
- I CAN read the SD card on the tablet once booted up regularly. I can also mount the storage on my PC.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
So I tried a different sdcard (8GB, if it matters). No issues. No idea why this worked, so I guess the mystery is unsolved.

Probably partition of your sdcard. Try reformatting it to another format like NTFS or something?

In fact, CWM can't real actual SDcard (dock slot), it read the MicroSD only (the tablet slot)
Try putting the zip at the root of the MicroSD, and launch CWM
For me it´s doing the same - can´t mount SD card. I have microSD card that I have formated into FAT/FAT32/NTFS - nothing worked. I try to put it into SD card adapter and nothing too...
Can someone tell us please, where is the problem??? I have root, flashed cwm 3.0.2.8, standart ROM...

MicroSD needs to be formated into FAT32 and only this format
If you read the post above yours, you would have also seen that the SDcard slot on the dock DOES NOT WORK in CWM

Yes, did this. I wasn't messing around with the dock, just the microSD in the tablet itself. And yes, the .zip was in the root directory--though it's not like I was able to get this far. I was not even able to see the root directory, at all.

Plug it in while android is running, and check if the MicroSD is seen in /removable/MicroSD
If, yes, that's pretty weird. If not, try another MicroSD
I had the mounting issue as well. But I formatted my micro SD card with SD Formatter (I am not allowed to post URL as a new user ), then it can be mounted.
myode is right, use SD Formatter 3.0 will fix your problem.
It use low-level format, where windows format don't.
I came across (i can't remember where exactly) some people swear that by formatting the microsd card in a android phone, the card no longer exhibit abnormal behaviour in the tf101.
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.

How are you formatting the sd card?
Try a program like SD Formatter
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
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.
I finally had some time today to flash the CWM flashable OTA update and rebooted to CWM however, CWM is defaulting to the internal storage instead of the micro SD card. I've flashed hundreds of .zips and updates in my Android experience and can't ever remember this happening. Though I am admittedly not extremely versed in flashing files for the Transformer so it may be a simple oversight on my part, I can't figure out how to get CWM to see the micro SD instead of internal storage. The SD card is mounted as I can see it with the file explorer and Wi-Fi explorer. I don't see a menu item to mount to external storage either. Am I missing something? A little help would be appreciated.
The only version of CWM for the tf101 that can use the external card is Rouge XM CWM Recovery. All the other version don't have the functionality. There is a link in my sig.

Thanks for your response, however, I have been using this version. I flashed multiple OTA updates using this recovery before as well as the big ICS update. Never had a problem. Just weird it is rebooting to recovery on internal now.

Exactly which version are you using?
Roach's 3.2.0.1 will read from the external micro sd
Team Rouge's recovery will read from both internal and external micro sd

Hi everyone,
I have been trying for the last few hours to find the information i need to resolve an issue i have.
I recently rooted my TFT101 with aokp milestone 5, I now find that i cant access my micro sd card, ( previously could ).
Also CWM wont see it, i have tried flashing it to 5.8.2.0 however still wont see the card.
I see there have been alot of posts but it just cant seem to find the answer that i need ( or im getting confused ).
I have seen that potentially formating the card to fat32 may resolve, however is ther something else im missing?
Any help appreciated or a point in the right direction.
Thanks
Some versions of CWM can't use the micro sd and in AOPK you may have to remount the sdcard although it should have done it automatically. You might want to use a file manager to find /removable/sdcard it is also sometimes named extsd or extsdcard

Brilliant finally found the SD card on AOKP, Thanks for the quick response.
Any thoughts on a cwm that would read it?

Hello
I wanted to install Katkiss on my tf101. I wiped all the things I had to and headed to the installation part but my tablet couldn't recognize any external SDs. I use TWRP so it should have been supported.
I could get into apx mode but I don't know if I can put files on my tab from there. My PC can't recognize the tab if I try it in an other way. So someone can please help me and give some solutions for reaching the internal SD with a USB connection?
I guess I can install the files from TWRP after it .
Any help would be appreciated. ?
If TWRP is working, put files on a microSD and install the OS. Otherwise, you will need to use APX and something like EasyFlasher to install TWRP or the stock firmware.

I have spread installed TWRP as I remember I also used EasyFlasher to do it. As I mentioned my tf101 couldn't read any SD card that's why I've asked for a hint to put the katkiss files on my internal card.
How is the microSD formatted?
Did you boot to TWRP after installing the microSD?
What version of TWRP are you running? Not all of them support ADB via USB.
My TWRP version is 2.2.1.4 and the SD card is "general hierarchical". As I know I need a FAT32 card to make it work but I couldn't find a way to format mine. If you know a way to do this than it's also good for me. I also tried a FAT32 pen drive through the keyboard but it - of course - didn't work.

I don't have a card reader and my PC didn't find the card when I tried with a phone having the SD card inside.
Do you think it might work if I format my external hdd to fat32 or the tf 101 won't recognize it?
