Hello fellow Transformers,
I've flashed Clockwork recovery and I have root access but when I try to flash a custom ROM I get "E: Can't mount /sdcard".
Tried reflashing the recovery img, tried manually mounting the /sdcard ... same error.
I used this thread to gain root access + flash recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714 .
I don't have a microSD card so the /sdcard I'm talking about is the internal 16GB one.
Hope it's even mountable... or do I have to use a microSD card?
Would appreciate any help!
Thanks!
Edit: tried a microSD card - won't mount as well
That root method seems to be pretty unreliable, judging by all the comments in that thread. Try flashing this version of CWM and try your custom rom again:

If that still doesn't work, I'd say you should unroot and then try one of the more reliable rooting methods.

I saw that thread but how can I flash this Clockwork img if I can't mound SD card? can I use fastboot boot recovery ?
Hah! Good point. You got me there...
Do you have another microSD card laying around? As far as I know CWM requires you have the files on a microSD, not the internal SD.
This is the method that I used and had no issues with:
http://asustransform.com/forum/index.php?/topic/19-how-to-root-your-asus-transformer/
You could try re-rooting your device. This method requires you to downgrade your firmware, though.
Thanks , i'll try the rooting method you did.
Try another microsd card first. I've seen people in other threads with this problem, and a different card did the trick.
Did you find a fix for this? I did a factory reset twice and re-rooted twice via the guide above. Also tried a differnt root method. Tried 3 different SD cards and reformatting them to fat32 (also tried fat and ntfs just in case ) none of them will mount in CWM recovery??
My tf will recognize the SD card when booted but not in clockwork. Im using the "standard " CWM as I can't flash the modded version. Anyone please!! I'm stuck on 3.0.1

Used the nvflash method, which flashes the modded CW, and bought a simple 4gb microSD card and it worked great.
Make sure your sd card is formatted to FAT32.
Thanks for the quick response. nvflash it is then. forgot that's used for more than just unbricking

Well, I was able to nvflash the modded cmw and prime 1.4 which was my primary goal but even this cwm won't mount the removeable or internal sd for me (still not sure which one mounts) reformatted 2 different cards to fat32 on my pc even tried formatting on the tf still nothing. Any other ideas ?

In that case, assuming you did everything, I suggest RMA... It should work so if it doesn't, maybe there's a fault with the sd card slot...
The best test is to take a microSD card that works for someone else on the Transformer and test it on yours, but it's hard finding someone with the same tablet next to you I guess...
That's what I don't get. It mounts fine when the tf is on, mount no problem on my other devices, they just wont mount for cwm on the tf. I'm gonna mess around a bit more to see if anything else works. I have some light screen bleed so it would give me a reason to return if I end up needing to go that route. Thanks again for the suggestions !
Edit: not sure why but CWM recognized the sdcard when I partitioned it, then I was able to mount it and do a backup. Still a little confused that it would recognize/mount the SD to partition but not to install or backup. But it works now

Glad to hear that!
I have screen bleeds as well but very small one and I didn't even notice them until I saw that "Screen bleeds" thread so I'm not going to return it for now... if it'll get worse I will.
It Works!
Thanks to jcarrz1 reply to my post in Clockworkmod recovery 3.2.0.1 roach-tf101-r1 I found the solution to my SD Card not mounting. It was indeed solved by first Partitioning my external SD card. After that CWM mounts the SD card just fine and uses any files I have stored there.
i have the same problem
can u explain what are you exaclty doing to fix it ?
edit : FIXED !
Mount Error Fixed
After battling with the error of the Clockworkmod recovery not been able to mount the SD Card for days, I was finally able to get this to work by formatting the SD Card using the SDFormatter. It can be downloaded here
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/
After installing the SDFormatter, formt the card accepting the default settings.
Good luck

I had to flash with the SE PC Companion first to be able to mount and select debug, but it worked!
Nice

What I did:
- I accidentally wiped all data in tablet - ROM, etc. Only left is Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP) v2.2.0 recovery console
- I put Android.zip (installation files) into Micro SD Card
- I boot into recovery (TWRP)
- TWRP does not read/detect the SD Card
- There is no files in /sdcard except one; /sdcard/TWRP/.twrps
I also
- installed adb on PC
- did 'adb devices' - no device detected when connect between tablet and PC
How?
Hello, I happy to know that I'm not the only one to have this problem.
I know it's my mistake and I'll be more carefull about doing these stuff.
I have the same problem as you, I wiped all data and only left TWRP(v2.1.5).
I tried to connect the TF300T to the laptop but I can't access to the root of the tablet (no device appeared in the window Computer).
I have all the drivers installed, also the adb, but in the "cmd" (win+R), there's no devices connected, so I can't put the original Rom to reinstall it.
So, as the TF300T has a micro sd card reader I put the zip Rom into a micro sd, but once in the recovery (TWRP) I can't access to the external sd, it doesn't appear.
Does anybody have a suggestion or have a similar problem?
First I would flash the latest twrp, (2.4.1.0) then d still a no go format sd card via fat32 (I personally like EXFAT) but only 2.4.1.0 can read that format.

"So I put my phone into airplane mode and threw it... worst transformer ever. -.-" -My friend
After v2.4.1.0 I began to see my card where before I could not, so I guess they improved this
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using Tapatalk 2
Same thing happening to me, I accidentally wiped system and my pad will not read the sdcard to flash a rom. Im on TWRP 2.4.1.0. Anyone have any suggestions please?
Edit: Tried a different SD Card (non SDHC) and its reading it. Lesson learned haha.
how should i update twrp , my pc do not recognize my phone anymore
How about we just tell it like it is. The people at TWRP don't care, as long as it wasn't THEIR device that this affects. Considering the last post on this was from March, I can say it seems they don't GAF. This just shows, though less visually appealing, sometime CWM surpasses TWRP without even trying.

My problem started when I upgraded my version of TWRP from 3.0.2 to version 3.1.1.0 that failed to recognize the sd card to install root and / or to store backup in sd, after much research I found no practical solution, and decided to do downgrade to version 3.0.3 of TWRP and my problem has been fixed
i have still the same issue cause it is unable to connect
because of drivers of my pc
there is a small not working sign on driver
i have updated that but not worked

You may try the Universal_Naked_Driver_0.73:

Then finally you need Kang TWRP recovery. This is the right one for TF300T fitting for all KatKiss custom rom by @timduru:

Hi All,
I've just updated my Nexus S i9023 to the latest stable Cyanogen Mod (10.1.3) and am now having problems seeing the internal sdcard. I've tried flashing 10.2 RC1 as well as mounting it via recovery mode but everything I do fails to get it to mount.
Would any body have suggestions on how to troubleshoot this (best place to look for logs to find errors) or have come across this before and know how to resolve it?

when you turn off your nexus,then turn on holding volume up and power,can you enter into mode where you can access your sd card?
Can you see your files from sd then?

No, It doesn't see it in recovery either. If I go to Mounts and Storage section and do a "Mount /sdcard" it just give a "Error mounting /sdcard!" warning
Same if I try to format /sdcard. I just get
Code:
Formatting /sdcard....
Error mounting /sdcard!
Skipping format...
Done
A couple of other pieces of the puzzle
The phone was encrypted before upgrade (and since reencrypted)
When I go to settings -> storage, I see what looks like the contents of the storage flashing up before disappearing
HI there.
I used to have same problem all day and I found a solution which works for me.
Under flashboot I put older version of recovery-clockwork-5.0.2.0-crespo. Only with this one it allows me to see actually usb mount storage.
I still can't mount the storage card for flash, but I can see it in my laptop. So I do full format in fat32. (It takes about an hour).
After that everything was fine.
Hope this works for you too.

Thanks for suggestion. I try but still not seeing the sdcard storage and mount / format from recovery give same error as above
Hello all, when I updated my shield k1 to v5.0 I ran across a problem. First, when i first updated the system did not recognize my adopted storage(128gb sandisk micro sd) and I had to reformat it as internal. after that, I had to reflash TWRP and SuperSU. After that, I can no longer access my data from within twrp and receive a message along the lines of "unable to mound decrypted storage device" this is a big problem because I can only flash things if i move them to a usb or the root folder of my device. I have done some searching on the internet but have not been able to find any solutions. If anyone else is having or had this problem, it would be great to know how to fix it. Thanks for the help ahead of time. I would be happy to provide any additional information needed or wanted to assist with this problem.
I'm having the same issue on the original Nvidia Shield Tablet.
you encrypted your internal sd?
and it is not "default_password"?
if you have another SD card try it with it.
what you want to do. If there are no data you will backup you can try to format (not wipe) data and boot Android again.
reboot to TWRP and try again if it will mount.
But here are a TWRP thread where you could ask these questions.
I dont know what happened here but I had the same thing. If anyone comes here via Google or Search, flashing this TWRP Version fixed my issue https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71877863&postcount=427
I dont know what exactly is happening but the Stock Recovery cant mount the Card either. I can only assume it is a Bug somehow?

Good catch! I was running TWRP 3.1.1.0 and it wouldn't detect my adopted storage at all. I test booted the twrp you linked (fastboot boot recovery.img) and it worked fine, even though it's an older version of TWRP. So then I went ahead and flash it. Thanks!
Hello!
The Tablet when not in TWRP shows the SD Card without issue. It's only in TWRP that the card is not showing. When I go into the wipe option or mount I am unable to even check SD Card. This was during my Attempt to load 7.1 into the TF300T. Using the internal storage I was able to get everything BUT the open google apps to load.
I am 100% new to this and need a LOT of help it would look. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thank you very much,
BW

You need to install "Kang TWRP Recovery" as advised by Timduru in the first line of his install instruction!
