SD card blank or has unsupported filesystem fix - General Accessories

4 posts about this and i think i found a way to fix this with windows. it did this to me and worked so thought id share so people dont format the sd card and lose all data.
i put the sd card from my sensation 4g into my computers card reader. in windows 7 i went to start > rightclick "computer" and click manage. i then clicked on "Disk Management" to see what type of condition the sd card was in. it said it was a RAW disk. i started to think and then decided to try a chkdsk to see if it fixes it. to do that i just clicked START > RUN (or START > type in RUN and click the run shortcut) and type in CMD in the box then click ok. now in the command prompt type in CHKDSK X: /R then press the enter key (NOTE: X represents the drive letter). wait for it to do its thing and it should fix this problem.
i am not sure if it will fix it for all cases but atleast it worked for me.

I had this problem only after installing Swift Key X.
Uninstalled Swift Key X , Unchecked fast boot in power options
Powered down phone removed battery for 20 seconds put battery back in
turn on was fixed
If happens again i will try ur method in an attempt to confirm though

yea another thing that has happened was i had to restart the phone a few times and it worked but the first post was a common issue and fixed it when other methods didnt work

Comes up with the SD card is RAW so it can't be done or something :/..
Really don't want to lose the data :/

Hey, it works for me.

and for me..

sd card
does not work?
Even if i format it, the disk keeps going to RAW format.

If you have a rooted phone and your sd is readable by your computer there is no need to format it. Just go to recovery and mount/sdcard.
This problem seems to be a flaw although.

I do not know why there is no proper feature which causes this problem

I think the problem is caused by root access to the sd card or kernel compatibility.

No its actually caused by recovery. Install stock recovery and the sdcard blank or unsupported filesystem error might not appear.:thumbup::beer:

Stock recovery might be the fix, clockworkmod compatibility might be the problem.

Do you have a partitioned sdcard? The CHKDSK command should detect this.

If you can't mount the sdcard using recovery, such as clockworkmod etc, I don't know whether changing to stock recovery will help.

This problem is not caused by CWM or any modded recovery, I know because this is happening to me on my LG Optimus L9 and I have the stock recovery on my phone. Although it is rooted, but that shouldn't be the cause. It's probably a faulty SD card, I have a 32 gb SDHC and my phone seems to hate it, half the time it tells me the card is blank or unsupported filesystem and wants to format it, the other half of the time it sits for an hour or two just scanning the darn thing. Either it actually is a faulty card, or my phone isn't good at reading large SD cards. So much for 'smart phone'...

Definitely the phone. My computer always manages to read the sd card, so of course, whatever happened to my phone is causing the problem. For me, the problem started immediately when I flashed a Rom after root. I didn't wipe my phone before, is that a fix???

[Samsung Galaxy Y S5360] The Upgrade, Rooting and Common Fixes Thread

There are currently 2 major problems that the users are facing with Samsung Galaxy Y S5360.
1) Firmware Upgrade with KIES
2) SD Removed Unexpectedly
1)To Upgrade your Firmware with KIES successfully in One-Go:
Backup your phone, Remove your SD-Card and then start the upgrade process. SD card is not necessary to upgrade the phone and hence, it will not interfere with the KIES upgrade process since, i've experienced many times that when your Phone is in "MAss storage mode" when connected to KIES, the upgrade fails for unknown reasons.
I've tried this and it worked like a charm. Though, your internet connectivity should be stable to download around 123 MB of data without interruption.
2) To fix the SD Card problem
Backup all your data to your PC and format your SD Card with "Fat32" format from your PC.
Do the format before your do the upgrade so that your phone gets a fresh Fat32 formatted card after the firmware upgrade.
Both of this will fix most of the problems with your Samsung Galaxy S5360 problems.
PS : I don't see any section for this phone and that's why i'm making one.
Varun Dave
Thank you for this. I am in China and just thought it was my phone that got the SDCard error. But, I have already updated firmware - so can I just reformat SD Card anyway?
Yep. Try it. Not sure if it works that way.

Yeah it somewhat works, can not mount, gets overwritten everytime.. so the hardware buttons don't work.
somewhat useless for recoveries as your phone needs to be working properly to do so.. Galaxy 5's port works too btw(similar way)..
what is mount?
It can load Clockworkmod from the ROM manager under Android, there is such option there, it reboots and after loads it.

[Q] Can't copy anything from my PC to my internal/external sdcard

The PC shows my device and my external and internal drives.
If I browse through my external or internal sdcard, it shows my folders and the files in them. If I try to paste something in either storage, it tries to move the file for like 3 minutes then it gives me the message that my device might not be able to view or play the file. If I tell it to move it anyway, it gives me a message saying that it can't copy it and also "My device might be unresponsive or disconnected". I tried to paste a song as well but it denied my request saying how "the device doesn't support .mp3 files" which can't be right since I did it before.
Also, if I go to recovery and try to mount it, the pc doesn't show any drives for it.
I thought it might of been a hardware id issue so I followed this method found here but it didn't help me. I have version 1.4.6.0 of the samsung usb drivers installed and I have Kies installed as well. I'm running the Anthrax Kernel w/ Jellybomb v. 14.
I've tried looking at other threads but I've had no luck with them. I would be grateful if someone could help me
Edit- I ran a troubleshoot program on the device manager for windows and it said it was a driver problem. I clicked the box for more info and it said the MTP USB Device failed to install. If i reconnect the usb cable, it installs fine on MTP mode. On PTP Mode, it fails to install. Regardless, I'm still not able to paste anything to the internal or external memory. Another strange occurence that I found out was that I waited like 10 minutes and tried to copy my files to the internal storage, and it worked! But, I tried copying the same files to the external right after that and it gave me "the device has either stopped responding or is disconnected" error.
Noob here, but I have a similar issue. Just watched an XDA video discussing the problem. ... MTP is the issue. It works differently than mass usb storage. I'll try to find the thread again and post the link.

Interesting, the video helps explain it clearly. I'm wondering if it's a ROM issue though. I was gonna try switching ROMs...maybe even do a factory reset if I get a free day.

It has to do with how TW handle the PC connection when you plug it in, so its only specific to stock or stock based
AOSP always has and will allow you to mount as a drive
I'm running JellyBomb v14 , and do not have that issue. One thing you may want to try is reformatting your SD Card. Ran into the same issue on a friends device. Turned out it was his SD Card. You can use sd formatter. It works quite well, and it's free.

You could try to install Kies, it comes with samsung usb drivers. Then you can uninstall it and the drivers will remain.
Also, microsoft mtp drivers are included with the latest media player. Maybe update that.

Did you ever format the SD Card? What I mean is actually pulling the SD Card out of the Device, and formatting it. Copy your stuff to the Desktop. Then format the SD Card. You can use SD Formatter as I suggested before.
I've formatted the ext sd. Tried different cables. Tried connecting in download mode. Nothing works. Right now I'm just pulling the sd and using a adapter for the pc to transfer data, it's a pain, but faster than Wi-Fi....

Do you have an SD Card adapter? If so, look on the left side of it. There should be a little tap. When insert your Micro SD Card in make sure the tap is all the way up. Up is unlocked on most SD Cards.

I tried various methods to resolve this copying problem (settings, drivers, cables, different USB ports etc.). Eventually I gave up and tried the WifiDroid and AirDroid style apps to transfer files reliably. They worked without error but were clunky to use. Especially if you wanted to copy multiple folders at once and still use the phone for other tasks. The best product I found to do this was Solid Explorer on the Play store. Its very easy to create a FTP connection between PC and phone and then simply to drag/drop multiple files/folders in the traditional Windows manner. Better still I can walk around at home listening to music or a book on the phone while the files copy in the background. Quick, reliable and no annoying file copy errors.

you won't scew anything up doing that. and the only way to get it working is by figuring out what the heck the mount points are and applying them. It only works for external sd card btw. And i would run the commands myself but i don't have the note 3. I kinda want it but it seems too big.

I moddified my S4 UMS Widget. if it doesn't work, i am going to need more information. Let me know if it works or not.
It requires root of course. And if it doesnt work keep tapping it till you get back to MTP mode and go under USB setting in settings app and set that to MTP mode and you should be back to normal again. Really wish i had this to help you guys with mods and what not. but i'll do my best.
I tried the UMS Widget you posted. When I connect my phone to my computer with UMS mode from the widget the phone shows up as a CD-ROM drive, not a removable storage. If I try to click on the CD-ROM drive it asks me to insert a disc. Seems very strange to me.

Without me having the device it's really hard to debug and figure it out. I kinda need to have a live logcat to look at. I know evil1art has it so maybe him and I can do some teamwork on it.

[Q] Invalid path of SD card

Im running Quantum V3, 4.4.1 KitKat on AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3. Last night I played around with phone, unmounted SD card cuz I needed to check my battery drainage. After I remounted it, ESfile explorer says that sdcard1 has "Invalid path". Even tho in settings > storage, it shows that there is sd card and how much space there's left on it...
I did a clean flash of the ROM before if that matters. I don't wanna reflash it and arrange all the apps all over again...
Also when I check the sd card through the app folders, aka in storage/sdcard1, it shows files and everything. What could be the issue that I cant get it to work?

Probably one of the bugs with the latest update by PwnCakes. Maybe you didn't unmount properly, or try formatting the sd card and plug it in again?
I have the same exact thing.
Sigh, at least I'm not alone xD
And I didn't try formatting, got 27 gig stuff on my SD card and unfortunately no space on HDD to copy all the stuff :/
Shame I ain't got enough posts to reply in PwnCakes thread...
I think it might actually be a bug within the rom itself OR ES file explorer. I had this bug since I think a few releases ago
I have the exact same problem. Under "device", i have two copies of extSDcard. I also get the "invalid path" when i tap on sdcard1. I guess i'll wait for a fix, as i don't want to uninstall ES File Explorer, and reinstall, just to lose everything.

I will post my workaround for ES when I get to my computer. It will basically circumvent the error to make it usable. Just keep and eye on this post, I'll edit it in.

Temporary ES File Explorer Workaround for SD Card and Ext SD Card
Sorry it took so long. Just got done finals and had to get the bus. Below is the settings that you guys can use to make it almost as if nothing was wrong with ES.
Set your directory settings for Home to the External SD Card
Change the default window settings to the following: Sdcard, Home, whatever else you want loaded AFTER these
This will make it so that the first loaded 'window' of ES is the device's internal memory. Then it will load the external SD card as the second 'window'. As long as you check it in the proper order, it will load just fine.

That does work indeed... Thanks!
Followed directions, and i get LAN with a blank page, then i still have to tap on the top of the app, and go into the directory to find sd card, and ext sd card(which used to be sd card1. What would happen if i wiped data on ES File Explorer, deleted the app, and then reinstalled it? Thanks for any help.

Idk how you got LAN. Uncheck all of the windows then select them in the order I provided. Also make sure home directory is set to your external SD card at whatever path it is. Also can you provide a screenshot?

O.K.,now. LAN was checked, in windows settings, but i didn't see it. If the problem is ES File Explorer, will it be fixed in the next upgrade? I've never had this problem with my other roms. Thanks for the help.:good:

I'll be honest with you. I check play d store almost daily to see if there is anything new with ES. I don't know. It might be a problem with the selinux transition from 4.3 to 4.4. It could be a million things but I think its just some back end code for the file system. :/

Right, so in your opinion, wiping & uninstalling, then reinstalling would just bring back the same problem?

Just found FX File Explorer. It works perfectly, and also has a "dark theme", which i like. There's a root access add-on with it, also for free, but it's telling me to grant it root access using my installed "SuperUser" app. How do i do that with that app? Thanks, again for all your help.:good:

Super user should pop up a prompt if you're rooted. Also, I know the error that breaks ES but idk how to fix it myself. Is a problem with permissions.xml

I get the prompt, but it keeps being denied by SU, however, it goes into Titanium Backup. I'm wondering if i really need root access. I don't think that i have it with ES File Explorer.

@grunt0300 if you really want, I can take a look into the permission.xml. however, no way I am making the commits to my device at the moment. All I know (without looking up the exact wording) is that in permissions.xml is a line for read external storage and that line is set to media/mnt/sdcard instead of storage/sdcard1.

Copying files to Sd Card

I am not able to copy or transfer files from internal storage to Sd Card, files such as WhatsApp databases, or other app related files.
Only media files are getting copied.
I guess this has to do with kit kat enforcing changes vis-a-vis the sd card.
Is there any workaround for this?
Please help.

Same for me.
My phone is not rooted.
I tried with 2 different sd cards (even formated by m8 himself !) .
I can move an app using htc integrated tool.
BUT
I can't move or copy ANY file from internal memory to ext_sd card.
I CAN copy files from ext_sdcard to internal memory !!!
Any help ?
System is read/write protected via kernel...need to search threads and install the disable write protection module then make your changes to the platform.xml file and then it should stick
It's so...stupid ! How will average joe doe ? And why such a protection ?!
Just a question : do i need to root to apply your method ?
Because for the moment i am in 10 days trying period and i don't want to root...
After obtaining ROOT privileges, you can modify the system \ etc \ permissions \ platform.xml file to achieve.
Thank you.
So , the sd card is useless for 90 % of people who are not rooted ? Or have i missed something ?
Root will not stop the device from reverting changes after a reboot, the module needs to be installed alongside of root for changes to system to stick...Blame Google for the changes in how the sdcard security is [email protected] being able to copy from device to sdcard except via computer

Yes root is needed,average joe wouldnt know..lol...no [email protected] they decided to do things this way...same protection was on the One Max as well....

Ill assume the way they see it the majority of consumers connect to computer,transfer files and do not transfer files to sdcard while on the phone...So no the sdacrd works as it should, connected via a computer....

Ok guys,
Has somebody successed to Move an app + DATA (data is the heavier thing!) to sd card and make the app or game work properly ?
I read it is possible but i was unable to do it.
I moved the app to sd with htc gestionnary and THEN moved the data folder using my PC , to sd card...
ALL is on sd card but when i run the app it doesnt work and wants to dowload data again ... BUT the data are really on sd card i see them.
For info i tried with mappy gps free and asphalt 8 without success...
