Gallery says no external storage available(sld 3.0 custom rom) - Micromax Canvas Magnus A117

As the title says- I cannot access my images nor can I use the camera (i am talking about external sd card)
though these media files can be accessed by other file managers so no problem with the memory card
I have flashed rom 3 times and tried other solution like clearing data of gallery but failed

[Q] No space to install apps.

I have installed Cyanogenmod 7.2 to my Samsung Galaxy i5801 and it seems to be working OK, mostly. I am having to try to reinstall several of the apps I had previously but each time I try I get a message that there is insufficient space to install.
I have checked the reported space and it seems I have 0 internal storage and 14GB external storage. I have tried to change the storage location for downloaded apps to both internal and external with no difference.
Any suggestions for a solution? I have tried searching the forum and, although I see other posts asking similar questions there don't appear to be any answers.

You can try to reflash the rom or you can partition your SD card and use data2sd.
The problem with the install location is, that you need to have free space on the internal storage in advance.
The app is first downloaded into a container on the internal storage, and then installed (at least partly) to the internal storage. So you should have at least appSize * 2 of free space.
Another app you could try is Link2SD. It moves mostly everything of an app to the sd-card. But for that you need to partition your card. Just google for that app

If you are using Marcellusbe's build then Link2SD should work. Just ignore the error and reboot the phone.

I rebooted the phone ...
But it is not at all movig the apps to external SD
did you install the rom with odin? i had exactly the same problem, reinstalling the rom from clockwork mod recovery fixed it, or install the mtd version from recovery.

[Q] Error installing app Can not install USB storage or SD card

I recently updated my external SD card.
Transfered all the information from the old one to the new one, VIA Windows PC.
Seems like all went fine until I went to one program I thought was installed PPSSPP
Seeing as it wasnt showing up now I tried re-installing it.
Now with the play store it says after downloading that the app
Could not be installed on USB storage or SD card.
Looking at troubleshooting here is what I did so far.
I did look for the file smdl2tmp1 and did not find it anywhere.
Unmounted the SD and rebooted , install of PPSSPP and says same error.
Removed SD and booted , still same error on install.
Dirty Flash Rom.
loaded Rom Toolbox lite and changed app2sd location.
Same error on everything I tried.
The only thing I can come up with is that there is a file that is causing problems that I cannot find where it is.
Any suggestions without doing a full flash and reinstall?

Update tried downloading and installing another app and getting same error , on something that I never installed before.
Update 2. Wiped SD internal and external , did not work. Same error

are you sure the SD card is not fake? for years now, ebay fradulent sellers peddle 4gb cards with a 32gb filesystem. After going over 4gb, the files are just copied to dev/null, but their names are still present in the allocation table
so plug your card to a computer and check it with any flashdrive utility
If you are unable to write in the external sdcard using a file manager too then - back up external card's data, connect to windows pc in usb mass storage mode and format it in fat32 format.
It should fix the issue.

This happened with the origional 32 GB card, then I did put a FAT32 64 GB card in the phone. Moved data over to new card.
It reads in windows fine. and both are fat 32.
Also tried installing without card installed and gave same error.
Titanium backup files will not reload, and even some amazon ones wont, but updates do most of the time.
Another thing I noticed is that my internal is GB for apps, that has about 300 MB left. I think this may have something to do with it so moved data over to SD.
Just tested about 3 restarts and finally went with a paid app, Tried changing default install to auto , internal and SD. didtn really make a difference.

[Q] Sd Card unreadable files issue

In every 2 or 3 months the memory card automatically gets the unreadable file names in the root directory while other folders and files on root are working perfectly.
I searched and found out that the default apps in TouchWiz for photo gallery and files are causing such issues, therefore i installed third party apps for gallery and file navigations, but same problem occurs again.
i tried to delete through windows but its giving error while deleting.
Snapshots attached.
Memory Card info: Kingston 32gb micro sdhc4
Mobile : Samsung GT-19305 (non rooted)
Android Version : 4.3 Jelly Bean
Please forgive if this or similar to this question was previously answered.
I have had a similar issue whenever i remove my usb or sd card without ejecting it. Put your sd card in a card reader. Backuo your data then delete partition by using minitool partition wizard. Recreate partition. Check for disk errors then, in the properties of sd card. It will be good to go.
Hit THANKS if I helped you

Thanks bilal for sharing your expertise with me. Yes, this is the only method left to make my sd card again usable. but transferring the data is headache. isn't there any other option left??
If you want to get it all fine and clean you need to either format it or recreate partition. Its up to you otherwise there are minimal chances of sending those chinese files away. Mine wasn't deleted so i recreated partition...!

Data on my SD Card on my Z5 is only readable

I can't edit, remove or format my new SD card.
after I bought a new SD card and moved my backup files from a PC, I connected it to my Sony Xperia Z5 (Android 7 (not rooted)
then a notification came asking to select if I want to set my new SD as internal or external storage and I ignored it.
and from that time it is not allowing me to do anything to it except reading it files (it doesn't even show photos in photos app (just show files in file manager)
anyway I tried formatting it through PC and it keep saying "device is write protected"
tried regedit and diskpart methods and nothing worked.
tried formatting it through other android device and still unable to format it.
any solution?
