When I move my files to my phone I INTERNAL MICRO SD this stays 0 bytes of space when it actually has 1GB of free space, then plug my phone in storage mode does not work, only USB recovery mode works.
I clorkworkmod whit NVFLASH 5.0.X.X and i flashed cynogenmod, ON eagles blood i have the same problem.
WHIT MIUI i have the same problem, only whit stock firmware i dont have this bug.
Please help me!!
It sounds like maybe your internal sd is formatted ext3 and your phone's system is formatted ext4. Those roms you mentioned use ext4 partitions and stock GB uses ext3. To use those roms I believe your internal sd card must be reformatted to ext4.
OHH man thanks u, but how can i format my SD CARD TO EXT4?? sorry for my noob question.
i have falsh it to ext4 whit mini tools partition, and the phone says it my internal SD it whit error and i formatted whit phone and connecto to my pc and the same problem, only whit CMW.
The internal sdcard isn't formatted to ext, it's fat32. (Which is why you can mount it on a windows box.)
I've seen this happen with faulty drivers, bad usb cables, it's usually on the computer end. Most commonly, it's caused by the file allocation table showing the wrong amount of free space on the drive/partition. Try running a chkdsk on it to see if that helps. It's not hard to mess up a fat32 or fat16 drive by improperly removing it (unplugging it from the computer before you unmount it. Best case it just marks the drive unclean and bugs you everytime you plug it in, worst case you get corruption on the file allocation table.)
Hi guys,
My SD card got corrupted before flashing a rom, so I'm a bit stuck (I can access the CWM menu, the kernel is fine).
So I formatted the card to FAT32 (tried other formats) but when I try and flash an update.zip from it I get
E:Can't mount /sdcard/
I also can't mount the sd card from the CWM menu.
So I'm thinking, are there some files missing from the SD card that CWM/android need to interact with it? I can imagine these files were wiped when I did a format. Like superuser files or something? You know also, those hidden files beginning with '.'
I've tried all the usual methods like formatting using SDFormatter and stuff - still, CWM can't see it (my computer can if USB is mounted). Am I right in thinking I need some kind of system files on the SD card?
Any help?
Thanks in advance
Card could be bad, try another one. If it works, trash the 1st one.

I also think that the SD card has the problem, I had also the same case before, but when I try my cousins memory card the SD card is now mounted in CWM..
for fixing you can try this commands on cmd
chkdsk /x /f (your sd card name)
and then press enter
WARNING:after fixing some bad sectors you will noticed that your some apps or things were zero bite on sd card.
INFO:"(your sd card name)" is means your card name for example like h: s: k: etc.and like this command
chkdsk /x /f h:
Hi guys,
My phones micro-sd card has been acting strange and was not being recognized at times by my phone. I then proceeded to put it in its SD card adapter and put it in my Mac and got an error saying the card was unreadable. I then put it in a reader on my PC and everytime I try to access the drive it gives me the 2 errors, "You need to format the drive...etc" and after clicking cancel it says that my drive is an unrecognized file format.
Recuva says it can't read the boot sector and running chkdsk gives me the message that the file format is RAW.
Just tried running ReclaiMe file recovery and it says the card is only 30.6MB while it is actually a 32GB card.
Do you guys think there is any hope? Or should I just move on?
Any help would appreciated. Got a lot of pictures and music I would love to save on the drive, plus ROM backups.
Thanks so much

I've killed an SD card before.. not sure how.. it had been partitioned EXT3 for a rom on a desire.. then re-formatted to normal..
but the problem came months after without notice one day the camera was failing and the gallery wouldn't open..
I tried a new SD card and things were fine so I figured the SD card died
Try to use MiniTool Partition Wizard on your pc, and delete ext partition and swap stay only on fat32. if that does not work format your card to exfat. If that doesn`t work try use program "winhex"(before i used it, my computer hadnt read my card). I repaired my card 3 times these methods.
You can use this ONLY on memory card reader.
So my Pantech Burst P9070 is having issues. In clockwork mod recovery (cwm) it said my SD card couldn't mount so I tried formatting it. Well apparently I must have done something wrong during the formatting process because my SD card (internal) is no longer detectable by my phone or computer. My phone shows a notification saying that my SD card is damaged and needs to be formatted but when i press the button to format it, my phone says that the SD card is removed, but I do not even have an external SD card so I am confused. Please Help!!!:crying::crying:
Don't panic. If you are trying to use your sd card for songs, apps, photos etc, then just go into windows or any other partition manager, do a FULL wipe and make sure its FAT 32. If you also want to increase your internal storage visit my thread Hope this helps.
But how am I even suppose to use the windows or any other partition manager if my SD card isn't detected by my phone or computer?
Disk Management
Look in the Disk Management Tool in Windows Vista or above.
If you don't have that or it doesn't detect it you can download a disk partitioning tool to do the job.
It none of the tools work from Windows verify that the card is unmounted in Settings and try formatting it form Android.
I've tried making a partition on my SD card using CWM but now i need to delete it, when i plug in my phone via usb cabel and turn on MiniPartition wizard, it only shows the SD card but no partition, really don't know what to do
