Good day.
I was planning on putting new Rom Hyperdrive 8 on my Samsung N8013 tablet.
I rebooted the tablet into CWM touch recovery. 6.0.4.5 and selected the option "clean up for new Rom. After the cleanup was done successfully, I selected "install from sdcard1" to install a new hyperdrive 8 Rom, it cannot see the external micro sdcard card (32 gigs) and my new Rom is on the external sdcard. It can't even see the internal card either. I am able to get into the Cwm Touch Recovery. But I cannot mount or remount the external micro sd card.
Your advice on how to make it work would be greatful.
Thank you.

I have a US WiFi xoom, rooted, running tiamat 1.4.1.
I've formatted the card in a computer and an android device (Evo). No matter what I do, the SD card will not show up on the device in android. It shows up fine in clockwork. I've restarted my xoom as well after inserting the card.
Can someone lay it out for me, because I'm obviously missing something, and I've tried all the answers in the other threads, such as "format it".
I'm having the same problem. Did you get it fixed?
Ok first I'm assuming you have a file manager app (I suggest Astro or Root explorer, file station is a good one too) You should be able to see the files on your memory card located in sdcard and a folder called "external." If you have files on the card but they aren't showing up in the "external" folder a reset will usually make them show up. I hope this makes it a bit more clear.
I've tryed that and I'm not seening that file external anywhere.
In all honesty, you are probably not doing anything wrong. Some sd cards just don't work for some reason. I have a crappy 1 gig card that worked as soon as I restarted my device, and have a 8 gig card that will not work while honeycomb is running, no matter what I do . Same deal though, it will show up in CWM recovery. Maybe the idiosyncrasies that arise from different sd cards is what's holding official updates from including sd support?
So what card seems to work? I've tryed two the one out of my evo and the 16g that I just got.
How did you flash to 1.4.1? Did you come from stock or previous versions. Did you use ADB or Kernal Manger? If it was from stock then you might try flashing the 1.4.0 kernal first and then going back to 1.4.1. I actually liked 1.4.0 better because of some of the memory mounting features that it had.

Do you see a /sdcard/external folder? Do you see a /sdcard/sdcard2 folder?
Try creating both of these and rebooting your Xoom. Which version of Tiamat did you come from?
Sd Formatter and a reboot solved my issues with a 32g Kingston.
jwb
I upgraded to 3.1 and put on the TDR WiFi kernel but I still don't see my SD Card. I can see it in the Recovery module, but not within HoneyComb. Any ideas?
I'm using a SanDisk 32Gb, no issues.
No SDCard for me outside of CW
I went from Tiamat 1.1.6 installed via adb to Tiamat 1.4.2 installed via CW and I cannot see the external SDCard on my 3G Xoom.
Steps I took:
1) Started at Honeycomb 3.0.1 with Tiamat 1.1.6
2) Installed CW 3.0.2.8 via adb
3) Flashed Honeycomb 3.1 via CW per instructions (SDCard is seen in CW)
a. Flashed New Recovery
b. Flashed HC 3.1
c. Flashed Bootloader Patch
d. Flashed Updated Boot.img (for 3G Xoom)
e. Performed Wipe Data/Factory Reset
f. Performed reboot and verified successful install of HC 3.1
4) Flashed Tiamat 1.4.2 per instructions via CW (SDCard is seen in CW)
a. Flashed 3G Boot image with light off
b. Flashed 1.4.2 1600 Kernel
c. Rebooted and verified new Kernel. Used SetCPU to clock at 1,600 Mhz
I still can't see the SDCard as either /mnt/sdcard/external or /mnt/sdcard2 using Root Explorer, Astro or EStrongs. I reformated the card using XP SP2. I then tried to format via my Droid and finally SD Formatter. I reboot between each format. Nothing works. My SD Card is a Sandisk 16GB. I have tried having USB Debug On and Off...no difference. I reflashed the 3G light off Boot image followed by reflashing Tiamat 1.4.2 with no result.
Could the problem be that I went directly from 1.1.6 to 1.4.2 without any interim update? It is weird to me that CW sees the card but HC 3.1 won't.
Thank you for your help.
Update: I also tried to use the Sandisk 32GB from my OG Droid which I know is a good card. CW sees it on the Xoom; but HC 3.1 doesn't.
hey, i'm running honeycomb 3.2. i just used brk.rootkit_v6.1 to root and install cwm version 3.1.0.1, i would love to install a custom rom, but when i boot into cwm it only gives me the option to install zip via internal sd, i have a 32gb class 10 external sd inside and the option does not come up...when i try to install a rom...any rom..it says "E:Can't mount /sdcard" i updated to 3.2 before i rooted and flashed cwm...i'm thinking that may be part of the problem..It mounts perfectly when it's completely turned on..internal sd and external...this is my first tablet and i really love the TF so far. if anyone has any suggestions it would be very much appreciated. thanks!
Try formatting the SD...
i just did a wipe/factory reset...still a no go...i do find it ironic that it was able to mount and do the wipe/reset but not to install the .zip...
Try reformatting the micro sd card like suggested above

Hey,
I would like to install the android revolution hd but I got a weird problem.
In my tf101 the main storage 16gb is somehow (dont know why) called sdcard and when I put real micro SD to the tablet - it is called MicroSD instead of sdcard.
Now, because of that I cant instal new rom cause it always thinks i have not sdcard in. (in rom manager pro - it sees my sdcard a the main storage called sdcard)
In root explorer I can change sdcard into something else but cant change MicroSD into sdcard. Do you have any idea what should I do?
Do not use ROM Manager. And what you're reporting is the normal storage for the TF101. sdcard is the internal storage, microsd and sd are the 2 extension slots.
ok then, why my android cant see any sdcard when im in recovery mode (without using rom manager, and I tried 3 sd cards yet), Oh and btw I got Clockwork recovery mod 6.0.2.1
Hmm, is that possible to change the rom into revolution hd with easyflasher ?

There should be a menu in recovery to attempt to mount the card. Maybe advanced menu I think. Try that.
well, I tried but there is no such thing in advanced also. So what about easy flasher, can I try with that?
Use the mounts and storage menu and you should be able to manually mount your microSD card.
problem solved, i used goomanager to instal other flash which recognized sdcard,
it turned out that reading alot of old stuff actually helps alot xd
thanks for all anyways
I'm stuck. I don't know what to do. I have twrp 2.6 and i have no os installed whatsoever. Is there a way to mount usb storage so i can send the stock rom to install from my micro sd card? I basically tried to installed cm 10 with the 4.2 bootloader which ****ed it up. I want to send the 10.1 CM so I can use a rom again/

why not just download the stock rom on you pc then put it on the sd card then put the sd card in your tablet?
I recommend using twrp 2.5.0.0-4.2 instead of 2.6 if you have fastboot that is. It mounts external SD just fine. Tap the internal storage box and you should be able to change to microsd.

I moved my old Galaxy S2 from stock to Cyanogenmod years ago and stopped using it when the USB port failed for data but not power.
I got it out of a drawer today and I just upgraded from the external SD card to Cyanogenmod 12.1 and forgot to add Gapps.
I think I had TWRP before but now I only have Cyanogen Recovery.
Is there a way to add Gapps without TWRP or USB?
Hi there and welcome to Assist,
Download proper GApps and copy to your SD card (on the root of card) using some Micro SD adapter, and then try to flash thru recovery.
Good luck
Thanks man.
The Gapps zip wouldn't read from the external card so I copied it in the OS onto the CMupdater folder on the phone and it worked from there.
Thanks again.
