[Completed] [GUIDE] How to fix "Bad Disk" on SD Card - XDA Assist

NOTE: My english may be smoothly poor, because my native language is Spanish, so if something is bad, please tell me to remember how to write better in English!
Hi! I'm formatting my SD Card from my smartphone trough an root app, doing that got my SD Card clusters/MBR (Master Boot Record) damaged, and thinking of connecting it trough the PC makes no sense, it would say "Bad Disk" on "MIniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition" and some others, like "EaseUS Partition Master"!.
I get that solution on WIndows, and doesn't test nothing on Linux, (my main OS is Windows). So, let's go!

The post is a scam
The thread seems to be started with an intention of scam.
The video link directs to played.to which later redirects to rapidvidz.com (which asks to Sign up and provide a Credit Card number to see the video)
@technoholico If you really want to share the video I am sure you have heard of youtube. If you want to make money by making people sign up with the credit card info at rapidvidz, then maybe you should write that clearly in the post.
Warm Regards

It might take few seconds to get connected since CM uses dynamic partitions mounting
(It takes time to transfer the handle to LUN)
So be patient
That's it! Mass Storage Mode will be enabled.

Can I rename a Sdcard?

Hi guys,
I am pretty new in devices with expandable storage. I recently added one to my Z3 and I'd like to know if I can rename its name. I tried use Rename on Root Explorer, but it failed.
Thanks in advance.

As far as I know there's no way to change the "folder name" of the sd-card within android.
It's not like this is the name of the sd card like in windows etc. as android generates a path
to a mount point of said sd card and the name is generated from the sd card serial number / UUID (at least since marshmallow).
Changing this mount point could lead to a bad outcome as all links to the mount point wouldn't work
anymore and apps would literally "serach" in the wrong place for the sd card.

How to Resolve: Open From / Recent Items Menu Empty

Greets. Working with a shiny new G930F. Flashed Chainfire Root via Odin. Tweaked a bunch using Package Disabler. Nothing out of the ordinary here. I've run into a problem where none of the file managers I've tried (which have root permissions) will allow me to select the root of the external SD card for read/write permissions. I've tried ES File Explorer, Fx, Amaze, and a few others. Every time I try to modify the external sd card, I get a dialog (different in each app) explaining that I have to select the root of the sd card to continue, which I would happily do, except the following dialog has an 'Open From' menu, which is empty. Assuming that the 'Show SD Card' option hadn't been selected, I went ahead and checked. Sure enough, the dialog already had the "Show SD Card" option selected (now presented with a "Hide..." option).
I've checked every permission I can find but I'm not able to select the external SD Card root with any of these apps. The only app that will work, curiously enough, is the My Files app that ships with the phone. I'm at a loss, hoping one of you folks can help out with this one. Screenshots below for reference...
