Hi,
My daughter accidently formatted my sd card in MIUI, and now I can't get the sd card to mount.
Ideally I'd like to first find out which format type MIUI used as I'd like to recover my images, and videos.
Note.
MIUI version 1.7.15
In XP the card cannot be read, so unless someone has a solution I'm screwed.
Thanks
Mark

Hi,
I'm currently using Task's AOKP Rom and after performing a TWRP nandroid backup to my external sd card.. My external sd card started having problems. When I rebooted back to AOKP it showed an sd card error in the notifications asking me to reformat.
I've used this 32gb sd card for 4 months, installing various AOSP and TW JB roms with no problems at all. Yes, I wipe and flash everything correctly. This seemed to just happen randomly. I plugged my phone into my computer and it only shows my internal sd card available. When I go to mnt/extsdcard in file explorer, it shows no files.
Does anyone know a way to get my ext sd card working again? I'd like to get access to my files.
Thanks,
Tom
Update: it must just be my ext sd card... I plugged it into an adapter and it's not reading on my computer. My 8 gb version works fine but my 32 doesn't read at all. Any suggestions or is my sd card fried?
What's the best way to switch out your sd card without losing any of its contents. My best guess would be to:
1) Copy contents of old sd card onto your hard drive
2) Remove old sd card
3) Format new sd card
4) Copy contents of old sd card from hard drive to new sd card
Am I missing anything? I've read that FAT32 is recommended over exFAT? Has anyone heard different? Also, is it better to format the card using your PC or should I just format the card in my S3?
Hi,
I recently switched from an 8gb sdcard to a 16gb sdcard. I put everything from the 8gb on my computer hard drive, safely unmounted via storage in settings, then just popped the new one in, not messing with format or anything. a month later and I'm doing fine.
Hope this helps
I would recommend formatting the sdcard in a PC, if possible
If not, then do it through your phone
And yes, the procedure you have laid out is perfectly fine
Hey guys, i have an issue I need some help with. My wife's Sgs2 has a custom 4.3 now but since last month when it had ICS on it, it has been giving me a lot of issues with the micro sd card. i had a samsung 16 gb on it and all of a sudden it started saying damaged sd card, made me format it but still wouldn't work. i did usb mount to my pc via recovery as my pc wouldn't even id the card when inserted. i formatted to fat32 and tried to mount the card both on recovery and after rebooting the phone but had no luck. then i bought a generic 32 gig micro sd and put it on the phone after I flashed a 4.3 rom on it. at first everything was fine and a huge music folder and CWM backups were all on the external card but all of a sudden, the phone started giving me the same message. I formatted that card hoping the default file type for S2 would work but now it keeps saying either "damaged sd card" or "blank sd card with improper partition" or something like that. I'm at a loss as to what I did wrong and what I should do. Before formatting both the cards I tried using EaseUS recovery but that thing hung up my pc let alone fix the card. If anyone has any clue, suggestion, opinion or information on this, please do let me know. I've searched both on google and here on xda but couldn't find an exact solution or one that worked. Thanks again guys.

No,your phone is not dead.It's a software issue
Did you tried mount in recovery?
Do u have a previous backup of system partition?
When I try mount external sd, there was error becouse "no card"
On 108 and 157 same problem and thats was not update, i install clear ROM and after do backup (108 ROM) from September (then I use 16GB ADATA card) still have the same problem
Did you format the card on phone? Don't just try to use computer to format it. I've tried a similar case but then after used the format tool on phone to format the card and the problem solved. If it doesn't work too, try to use other sd card.
You should format to FAT32!
But on my PC a can do this only exFAT or NTFS, when i format to FAT32 by recovery after put card to PC it want to format card

Hi everyone!
Today I upgraded from CM 12.1. something to CM 13 and got a kinda weird bug, where google play services kept crashing, so i reflashed the gapps, and got another bug where the starting presentation program (don't remeber the exact name of the program, "guided assistance" or something, the one you get at the beggining explaining how to set up your device) kept crashing, making it impossible for me to continue using the device. Decided to restore factory settings (clicking between a crash and another xD) and everything works fine, except the fact that I can't use my sd card any suggestions? Any other info needed?
Is there a marshmallow rom with a working sd card?
P.s. I just read that is a issue that the developers are aware of, but i can't find anyone complaining about this error (the sd card not working) in the xda CM13 thread
Thanks to all!
MicroSD card support in CM13 ROMs is borked - the only thing you can do is wait it out!

Im on the latest CM nightly and I have no issue with my 64GB sd card. I used the built in format option and I seem to be fine

Does the current CM nightly that you're using support exFAT out of the box? The reason for me asking this is because on the 20151207 nightly, it was still complaining that the 'SD card is corrupted'.
FAT32 support for SD cards is fine on portable storage mode but when formatted as 'internal', people are still reporting problems as well.
I got that message as well but when I formatted I got my full sd card

If that is the case, then what file system is your microSD card using currently?
From what I can tell exFAT. My transfer speed was much faster then when I had to use FAT32. Is there an app that can tell me what format my SD card is?

Soorry if this is a stupid question, but what is the built-in format? Can I use an SDXC card from another Android device (Samsung Tab S) or this a special format option found only in CM-13/Marshmallow devices?

When you put a SD card in the phone on 6.0 it will ask if you want to format it. With 6.0 you can use it as portable storage or internal memory for more room for apps and such. I use portable storage but as of the last nightly I didnt have to format my SD card. CM fixed exFAT support in their latest builds.

Hey can you tell me your SD model? And filesystem? Just plug in your pc and see in the properties settings. Can you tell me your CM build?
Little update, I flashed Cloudy 2.5 and Gabriel kernel, thanks all
I figured out the SD card problem , i couldn't fix it for nothing until i did this.
FOR ANYBODY THAT GETS STUCK AT 20% or any other sd card problem with 6.0 roms
1. Backup all files on SD card (This will delete everything on your sdcard)
2. Install minitool partition wizard on your computer
3. Inset Sd card into PC with and adapter and/or card reader (NOT WITH PHONE)
4. Remove all partitions from SD card with partition wizard (Do not reformat) Be careful to only select the SD card
5. Place SD card into phone
6. Let the phone detect SD card and try to reformat
7. chose either Internal or Portable Storage
8. Enjoy because it works perfectly for me now.
btw. im running a LG G3 D850 ATT
there was a fstab issue with external sdcards, the fix has been merge already though.
