I flashed leedroid 2.1a version over 2.1. and now i can't mount SD card. When i go in settings to mount "SD card safe to remove" appears
HEEELP!!
You can mount your sdcard with clockwork. I think you can find this option in the advanced settings or what it is called.

If your problem was like mine - where I was unable to mount/format my card..
Boot the phone up in recovery mode. Then select MS:USB and the PC should then see the card. Copy all your data off the card, then format it.
Mine was able to mount after this.

Does windows find and mount the SD card right away if you put it in to your PC (if you use a SD reader, not the phone)? if not you may have a broken SD card, you should be able to return it to where you got it for a replacement.
You might also try a defrag using windows on the SD card, android is a pain for leaving junk all over SD cards.
I have same problem
I tried to flash RCMixS_v1.6.1_A2SD+_BravoHboot but unfortunately I made mistake and I did it with wrong Hboot and it went too a boot loop and as I was waiting for download to finish ( down;oading right version of it) I just wanted to restore the back up but now it says can't mount th SDcard I format the card via PC and pus some files in it such as Official_FroYo_2.10.405.2 but still can't mount it and I can't install RUU_Bravo_HTC_Europe_1.15.405.1_Radio_32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11_release_121684 on my phone please help me

it works fine for me just fix my "brick" last night
Hello,
I had the same problem and fixed it like this:
I reformatted the SD-card first using the Windows-quick-format program. The SD-card was recognized by my PC but not by my phone.
Then I reformated the card using a disk-management (I used the Acronis Disk Director) and formatted the card as FAT32 primary partition. (The Windows-partition program formated it as FAT32 logical partition...)
This solved my problem.
Hope I could help you.

bump, had same problem here. Tries nearly almost everything out there, and as for it might be an usb brick you need to put files on your sdcard to fix it, which I can't... And I tried several sdcards, none of them work, so I think it's the sdcard reader that's broken or something.
Edit: oops, forgot to explain what I did fixed it for me which might help you.
I cleared everything, user and system data etc, flashed the Amon RA recovery and I already had a S-OFF hboot. Then I cleared the system cache. After that I only used the following command in the usb brick thread; fastboot oem enableqxdm 0, nothing else then after. Then I booted into recovery and it worked again.

- problem solved by just reformatting the sdcard when you restart the phone normally. There will be a notification on the status bar on the top that says that the sdcard is damage, and you could format there.
- one problem though, i was not able to apply the dual partiion (fat32/ext4) steps for increasing my internal memory. but at least my sdcard is fixed
Hi All,
I have a problem with my SD card. My phone doesn't recognise SD card after I created ext4 partition through partition magic on windows 7. Here is what happened.
- I have rooted desire running CM 7.0.3.
- I wanted to go back to Starburst 1.4 rom.
- I have class 4 16 gb sd card (fat + ext3) with 512 mb of ext3 and rest fat32 (this was when everything was running good)
- I flashed the new rom through CWM, but only got like 54 mb on sd left.
- So I manually formatted ext3 and changed it to ext4 using partition magic on windows 7 (connected sd card through a reader).
- After that I flashed the new rom, but still got the same size left.
- After that I went back to CM7.0.3 which is working fine for me.
However, at this time, my phone doesn't recognise my SD card.
- I saw that I can't format ext in recovery as i get this error
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2(File exists)
Error mounting SDEXT: !
I believe I was able to install CM7.0.3 coz it was a small rom was fit directly into phone's internal memory.
At this time, I can't see my SD card on phone. Can't play music or install any files or anything.
Looking for some quick help.
Thanks,
Satyam

Hi Matt,
So are you saying that you got your SD card formatted by someone else using Rom Manager ?
- As of now, when I click on the inbuilt ROM Manager in CM7, it says " The SD Card needs to be mounted to use ROM Manager!"
That means my SD card is abviously not read by my phone.
Looking for some help. I don't want to do something silly at this time.
Atleast, as of now my phone is not bricked and is working, just the SD is not.
Any suggestions/comments or link to my problem is more than welcome.
Thank You
Hmmm, i smell another usb brick here, we've had so many these days, and all by people using cwm and flashing gb sense roms...just to prove i'm right, can you connect the phone to your pc? If you're not able to do that, then u have 100% chance it's a usb brick.
OMG !! yeah you're right.. now when I connected my phone using a USB, it doesn't give me the option to "mount USB".
What do to from here ? I don't know what is a USB brick and am pretty poor with linux commands !!!
Plz help.. However I can see a a couple of ROMs through recovery mode in my SD card, but can't flash those which require an EXT.
Plz help !!!!!

Hi,
Are you saying that formatting SD card and making fresh ext partition through a media reader will not help in this case ?
I am very confused so to say.. I read the link that you posted, it talks about CID which I'm not able to find.. Can't see that option in fast boot (recovery).
Is there some other way to fix all this ?
Any more tricks/ suggestions are more than welcome..
Please see detailed info about my issue in the post

Nope: i'm sorry but there is no other way...the problem lies in the misc partition, and that one doesn't get touched by simply toying with your sd, it's on nand, and no rom flashing/nandroid restore can touch it either. This process is the only way to go. CID can be obtained via adb command, i hope you'll have it installed and set up correctly.
i just fixed my brick lol . i found out bcuz i coulnt enable bluetooth

Hi,
Okay I get it.. I need to fix my nand partition, now question -
1) I can figure out the 1st step "Find out your CID. Go into fastboot mode, and do 'fastboot oem boot" - Nothing happens when I click on fast boot option in recovery mode. The other method CID generator also asks for CID.. how do I get that.. that's my biggest question.
2) How can I see the rom version.
I know, I might me sounding stupid, but I'm not a pro.. used to love flashing new ROMs earlier and this time I just messed it up.
Need some step-by-step help.. I might be asking for too much, but I trust this forum and believe Android has too many fans hooked to it.. so I will get some help

Also just want to let the forum know that I'm running a custom ROM (CM 7) and don't see the option of software info under Settings>About phone. Any other way to find out rom version ???????/
Ok, sorry man, i was out for a ride
To see the CID you have to type "fastboot oem boot" in the terminal, after navigating to the path where you have the sdk, for example:
"cd c:/sdk/tools"
"fastboot oem boot"
Then you should get all the info, together with the CID ofc...obviously you need to have adb installed and working in order to do that (there ia a lot of tutorials for that, just use the search function).
As to rom version, you don't need it, just download the mtd0.img, open it with the hex editor and mod it with your CID, then go for the next step
I dont believe you have bricked your phone, i think you have created a partition on it without making it a primary partition along with the fat32 parition.
boot into recovery and mount your SD card to your PC. Reformat the whole card and then it should work again, you may just be able to go into your partition software and amend to show 'primary' on each, if not read on. Couple of options then, download ROM manager from the market and reformat the ext3 using rom manger if not do it via your windows software but make sure both partitions are set to 'Primary'.

It's a usb brick, not a plain brick: when you plug it to pc the phone usually doesn't even light up the led.

hi, seems you got bad partition on your sd card, since it s normal that you can't mount sd while plug on usb.
did you already put out your sd card out the phone and try to read it with a usb scard reader plug on your computer??
cid error mean you have messed-up your misc partition which is the one in your nand where the recovery is located... didn't see any error about this in your thread...
in the boot, should fail with error misc partiton cid unknown etc...
have a try about sd card reader it's easer than misc error fix
give a try on this site and try using gparted cd live... don't need to be expert in linux command (it s a graphical interface) should you know that FIRST FAT32 PRIMARY partition and LAST EXT3 (is less fast but really more stable and relyable fs) PRIMARY partition

Fixing misc doesn't take more than a minute if you have a working adb...repartitioning micro sd card takes loads of time instead, especially if it's big, coz you have to backup all of your data then copy them back, and that's a pain, especially if the sd isn't very fast.
Anyway you might be right there, just the other day a guy had a similar issue caused by multiple ext partitions not being recognized properly. I just thought it was a usb brick coz it's very common since the new gb sense roms rolled out and people started partitioning like crazy with cwm (which really SUCKS at that), and this either cause misc corruption or messed partitions on sd card: i'd suggest everyone to partition with amon them flash back any 3.0+ cwm to flash the rom, if you don't have the chance of using linux live cd (but you really should).
All sorted --------- RESLOVED !!!!
Okay Listen all Desire Owners-- I was able to fix this USB brick without having to go through all which was available on internet..
What I did -
1) Came home and formatted my EXT4 to ext3 and simply reflashed cm7 rom
All worked like charm - Now My SD card is mountable and works perfectly
Good for you
Anyway make sure you set up adb properly on your pc, it will save your life some day: it takes a while but it's worth it...i wouldn't get inti the rom flashing thing without it. Just a suggestion
Bests.
Hello folks,
Recently I have flashed CM 10 via CWM 6.0.3.2 on my Samsung Galaxy W. (I followed this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1990795)
Everything worked out fine (yay) exept for two issues I have:
1. My SGW doesn't recognize my Sd card (internal) at all. (though internal is mounted in cwm menu)
I have several folders regarding my sd and external sd:
- sdcard> tells me it is "unplugged" (in German> translation might differ) when I enter via file manager
- mnt/sdcard> here it tells me my sd card is unplugged as always
- storage/sdcard0> unplugged
- external_sd> it tells me sd card unplugged if I enter
- mnt/external_sd >here I can enter all of my folders
- storage/sdcard1> here I can enter again
2. My SGW can't mount my external sd anymore. I can clearly enter my external sd's files, but apparently I cannot mount my PC. Especially not with Multimount because it requests me to mount my internal sd (issue 1).
So how do I get it to work properly? - is it possible to do it via Terminal Emulator?
Specifications:
- Samsung Galaxy W
- Android Version 4.1.2.
- Kernel Version: 3.0.80-cyanogenmod-gc689589
[email protected] #1
- Cyanogenmod Version: 10-20130605- UNOFFICIAL-ancora
Thanks a lot in advance
Hi, I have similar issues with internal storage after flashing to 4.2.2 and also 4.1.2. Model is galaxy W previously 2.3.6 stock.
At root, i have
/data, which seems to be my internal storage as the FX file explorer show it has a storage of 1.07gb
/external_sd, which contains my files in micro sd card
/sdcard, which ES say SDCard unmounted
/storage, which contains sdcard0 (SDCard unmounted), sdcard1 (micro sd), usbdisk (SDCard unmounted)
In the andriod settings > storage, I can see internal storage with total space 1.07gb, but unable to mount it.
My camera and gallery says "No external storage available".
What should I do? Please help

This can be done for the SDcard you can unplug and plug directly to an other device like an PC, but not with the internal.
So better try the following. Secure your files if you can. Reboot into recovery and format there both. Rebooot into CM10 or whatever ROM you are using and change your USB operation mode from MTP to Mass Storage.

You probably mean back to stock Samsung ROM. But how will this fix corrupted partitions? And why "must" if there are probably more simple ways to fix it rather than flashing roms forth and back?
First of all he should format both and switch to Mass Storage mode to see if this fixes his issue. Flashing ROMs still can be tryied as a last resort.

I think you are mixing something up. First of all he didn´t say he can´t mount / access it from CWM Recovery but from a running ROM. This is two different things so it still should be possible to access both in CWM Recovery and to do a format.
Secound. Flashing a ROM will not format the internal Storage but only the partition where the ROM will be flashed to. They are not the same, so this is also two different things. So even if you flash a ROM but are having corrupted SDcards (Internal and external) they will stay corrupted till you fix this.
And this is why I suggested to first boot into RECOVERY, format both and finally after rebooting change to Mass Storage as the MTP Mode is not always working very well. If this doesn´t help he still can flash back to stock ROM.
However now I´m just repeating what I already said before. If you can´t get it, then I´m sorry for you.

you didi something wronge with recovery like corrupted your storage
Did you try fo flash TWRP again ? maybe do a factory reset in bootloader then try to flash twrp2853 - big or your twrp2851-big again
try to do this
open you fastboot folder then
rebote bootloader now you ar in fastboot usb
fastboot flash twrp2851
go to bootloader do a factory reset in bootloader (it will remove your bad sdcard)
go in fastboot then type fastboot flash twrp2851
bootloader

Hello guys,
I'm so upset. After several years with a stock GB rom (because I was scared of flashing), I've finally attempted to install a custom rom... And it didn't work as expected...
1) My phone was already rooted with DoomLord. for a long time.
2) I unlocked my bootloader and it worked fine. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662199)
3) I flashed the custom Kernel with Lupus GB v12 and it worked fine (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2054512)
4) I tried to flash with a custom rom, but couldn't. Here's why :
I put my custom rom zip file on my sdcard through windows explorer. But when I go to recovery TWRP and try to find my zip file on the sdcard, I cannot select it, because TWRP is "unable to mound /sdcard". I don't know why. The sdcard is fine, it should be able to read it.
So I have access to TWRP and recovery, but no access to the sdcard, so no possibility to install my custom rom... And I have no rom installed as I wiped everything according to the tutorial...
And as I'm a noob and all the explanations I can find are wayyyyy too technical for me, I'm basically stuck without any phone.
I know that this forum has not been too lively lately, but PLEASE, if you've read this , help me...
Thanks a lot,
Regards,
I had the same issue with my Samsung galaxy s3 with twrp but what I did was I changed My custom recovery to philztouch and I did flash without any problem. Maybe try searching for a another custom recovery because I wasn't able to fix mount error problem with TWRP.

Hello Podiwadda,
Thanks for your answer.
So if I understand clearly, TWRP is my custom recovery that I got with Lupus kernel, right ?
So if I change my kernel, I change my custom recovery ?
Thus, I guess I should try DoomLord's DoomKernel in order to get another custom recovery ?
Shall I use Fastboot to flash with Doomkernel over Lupus kernel ? No risk in doing that ?
Sorry for these questions, but coming from Symbian which was quite easy and straightforward in terms of flashing, Android is sooooo complex and confusing (with root, bootloader, C-kernel, recovery, C-rom, etc...).
yes you flash the kernel in fastboot mode with flashtools or adb, usually there's no risk in that.
i would try to format the sd card directly from recovery. i think ntfs filesystem doesn't work though so check that also, format it to fat or ext from your pc..you're just a few step from booting
If you have Lupus GB12 kernel still flashed, you could try to flash rom from clockworkmod recovery. Just tap vol- when booting phone (TWRP is on vol+ button, right?)
SD card should be formated in fat32. NTFS or Ext partitiions doesn't work

Hey guys, thanks for your support.
1) I tried with TWRP (through Lupus kernel) -> Cannot mount sdcard.
2) I tried with CWM recovery (through Lupus kernel) -> Cannot mount sdcard.
3) I changed the sdcard and retried in FAT -> Cannot mount sdcard.
4) I formated the sdcard in FAT32 and retried -> Cannot mount sdcard.
So the problem is not the sdcard, and not the recovery mode apparently.
I noted one surprising thing however - CWM recovery told me that my phone was NOT rooted when I tried to exit. But I'm sure it was before (I've done it many months ago with Doomlord, in order to use Link2sd).
- So, could it be the reason why I cannot mount the sdcard ?
- Is it possible that unlocking my bootloader and flashing with Lupus kernel somehow unrooted my phone ???
- Anyway way to check if my phone is still rooted through TWRP or CWM recovery ?
Thanks again,
I can't understand why it is not working either, but you colud try to do things from start:
-flash .any .62+ firmware with flashtool (return to stock)
-boot phone into that stock firmware and check is sdcard is recognized (format if needed)
-check if computer see sdcard (in storage (MSC) mode, not in MTP mode)
-copy your rom to sdcard (if you formated again sdcard)
-power off, enter in fastboot mode and flash Lupus GB12 kernel (with flashtool or any other ways you know)
-disconnect usb, power on and enter recovery (whatever you preffer more)
-delete system and data
-flash rom from sdcard
-reboot
PS:
Ignore CWM warning about root. It a feature for roms for locked bootloader (lupus kernel will root any rom installed). It is just few files in /system folder, so if there is no rom (because /system is deleted or it is unrooted stock rom) it will ask to root or not
PS2: maybe to try with external micro scdard reader in PC?
PS3: try another sdcard?
PS4: I must ask... You do have PHYSICAL sdcard insterted? right? Because x-play don't use emulated sdcard... (blessing of gingerbread )

-flash .any .62+ firmware with flashtool (return to stock) => Ok with R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1253-4437_.ftf through Flashtool
-boot phone into that stock firmware and check is sdcard is recognized (format if needed) => Yes it is recognized.
-check if computer see sdcard (in storage (MSC) mode, not in MTP mode) => Yes computer sees sdcard through MSC usb mode.
-copy your rom to sdcard (if you formated again sdcard) => Ok.
-power off, enter in fastboot mode and flash Lupus GB12 kernel (with flashtool or any other ways you know) => Ok with LuPuS_zeus_GingerBreadv12-full.IMG through fastboot and ADB package.
-disconnect usb, power on and enter recovery (whatever you preffer more) => Nok : I can enter TWRP recovery, but sdcard is still not recognized.
One interesting point though, sdcard IS recognized when I boot my phone into that stock firmware WITH Lupus kernel.
Thus, sdcard is not mounted / recognized ONLY when in recovery mode.
PS : ok.
PS2 : my sdcard is recognized with external micro scdard reader. that's how I put my C- Rom initially.
PS3 : I tried with 2 sd cards : one Nokia with 2gb in FAT then in FAT32. The other one Lexar 32gb in FAT32 (+ a partition in Ext4 for link2sd).
PS4 : yes, yes, physical sdcard. I wouldn't even know how to emulate a sdcard !
Seems that I'm stuck with stock GB then. But I'm happy my phone is not bricked and could be flashed with Flashtool. What can I do ?
- I was thinking about flashing with LuPuS_zeus_GingerBreadv12-full directly through Flashtool (and not from sdcard through recovery) if it's possible (but I need a .ftf file), hoping that the sdcard with then be recognized by the C-Rom.
- Otherwise, maybe trying with another kernel, like DoomLord's DoomKernel, or maybe even LuPuS_zeus_GingerBreadv12.5-ram.img (but I'd like to keep the 720p ability...).
Thanks for your advices !
It's more like wild guess then advice, but try:
-Delete any ext partitions on sdcard(s) and leave only fat32/fat
-Try with sideload in twrp recovery to flash rom (as i recall, it does not need sdcard) .

1) I'm using the sdcard with no ext partition - just 2gb of FAT32.
2) Nope, not working either : see the screenshot enclosed - again this f******g message "unable to mount sdcard"
Any other idea ? Meanwhile, I will try with a third sdcard - we never know...
Thanks !

Sry, i am out of ideas what could be wrong.
You could try flashing other kernels and see if any of them can access sdcar (you only need recovery) . You can easily flash bach lupus gb kernel oncev you are able to flash rom.

Thanks a lot Bakisha for your continuous support and advices.
Ah ! Ah ! Ah ! I've found the problem ! I tried with a THIRD sdcard and it worked !
With just a noname / nobrand 8gb microSD HC class 2.......... When a Lexar and Nokia sdcard failed...
So I flashed NXT rom thanks to CMW recovery (surprisingly, TWRP failed to flash my rom...).
So now I have my new NXT rom flashed and perfectly working, except that.......... It does not recognise my 32gb sdcard ((
So I believe Lupus kernel does not like my Lexar 32gb sdcard :-/ As it was working perfectly with the stock kernel and rom.
To confirm this theory, I will try another kernel.
1) In order to try another kernel, I just flash over with Fastboot and ADB Package ?
2) Which one offers similar performances to Lupus ? Do you have any suggestion ?
Again, Thanks a lot !

Just use flashtool, it's easisest (with few clicks), but yeah, if partitiion size is same, just flash over existing kernel.
You could try other kernel, just keep in mind that you'll need to wipe system and data everytime kernels have different partitions size.
Doomlord's kernel is good, but lupus is newer one. Can't say which is better, it's a matter of opinion.
Or try extreme kernel (try to find links in general section)
Or try kernels at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2637637
I am using 64GB card, so it's not about size (also cheap chinese card)
Have fun

Hi Bakisha,
So I tried to flash with Doomlord's kernel - same problem, sdcard is not recognized...
- So basically, with stock kernel and stock rom, no problem.
- With C-kernel and C-rom, sdcard is not recognized.
Now what I did is put my 32gb sdcard in my Symbian powered Nokia 808, just to check.
Interestingly, the Symbian OS told me that it cannot use this sdcard, because it is encrypted, and it is not able to remove the encryption because it does not have the key...
So here's my noob guess : somehow, my sdcard was encrypted when I was in stock GB rom.
As I totally wiped system and data in order to flash C-kernel and C-Rom, I've lost this bloody key.
So my sdcard is still encrypted and the key is lost, which would explain why it cannot be used by my flashed Xplay and my Symbian 808... It would also explain why other sdcards work properly with my flashed Xplay, while this one doesn't.
- Does that sound relevant to you ?
- Do you know how to remove the encryption for this card without the key ?
Again, thanks in advance !

Hello Bakisha,
Thanks a LOT for your help and patience.
I've finally found a solution to my problem.
I'm pretty sure the problem was the sdcard's android encryption form the beggining.
Here's what I did to solve it :
- Download MiniTool partition wizard free.
- Wipe entirely your sdcard (fill sectors with zero & one).
- Once done, format your sdcard in FAT32 through Minitool partition wizard.
- Then, format in FAT32 with Windows explorer (right click on sdcard, then format).
- (OPTIONAL) Then, go back to Minitool partition wizard and create your Ext partition for Link2sd.
After all this, my sdcard was finally recognized by Lupus kernel and the C-Rom.
Hope it will help others.
