Cannot Mount Sd Card - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

For some reason, I cannot mount my sd card. I tried reflashing back to stock and rerooting again, but it still doesn't work? Any ideas on how to get it to work?

Is it giving an error when attempting to mount?

Yeah it did give an error however I just formatted the sd card and then it worked afterward.

Format SD card?

Yesterday I picked up a replacement evo. The replacement was a brand new phone, not a refurbished.
Sprint swapped out SD cards at the store from my old evo to the new one and had issue starting it. Phone froze up a several times before he could see if it made phone calls.
I fully charged it and updated prl and profile and still had constant reboots and freezes.
So I rooted my phone to see if a different rom would help and I'm still having the same issues.
My question is, do I need to maybe format my SD card? If so do I need to save any files and folders?
Also I'm currently running cm6, do I need to unroot and put the default rom back on?
Thank you.

I think the cleanest method would be to unroot and put the original ruu on the phone. Either way you should back up your sd card on your pc so you dont loose any information.

What files if any do I need to put back on the SD card?
Or do I just format it and restart the phone

Just your personal files.....any files needed for re-rooting can always be downloaded again....additionally, you don't want to assume the method you used to root your old phone would be the same way for your new one...

So if unroot my phone and go back to the stock rom, I can then proceed to format my SD card and my evo will still boot?
I don't need to transfer over any system files or folders?

same problem
I have a similiar issue where my evo is not reading my SD now. Tried to backup and retore nandroid and it would never complete. I am assuming the SD may be damaged, however when I boot into recovery it reads everything that is on the SD when I go to flash ROM from SD. I would like to format and see if this is the problem, but will that erase the rom i am currently using?

Formatting your SD Card will do nothing to your ROM

Yes, your phone will still boot. Do not transfer over system files or folders, just transfer pictures/video/etc. from your SD card to your computer, unroot, run the RUU (DO NOT RUN THE 2.3 RUU YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ROOT), then format your card. Oh, and do not accept the OTA Update they are pushing.
Or, you could format it in recovery and see what happens. If you are using AmonRa, go to Wipe ---> SD Card. (Remember - transfer your files to your computer)

How many backups do you currently have? Remove some old one to make room for new ones

Did you rename the file? If you did, it needs to not have any spaces. Soithastolooklikethis.

sd is full
My guess it's because your sd is full, make some room and try again. Backup important files to your pc and save a couple gigs for the space the backup needs. Also, I have found that backing up from the rom manager app and rebooting recovery and backing up from cwm recovery produces different md5 sums, so I generally only backup while in recovery and not from the rom manager app itself.
hi folks,
thanks for the replies but the sd card isn't full as i've formatted it so there's no way the external is full.
come on, i'm not that big of a noob

because you need to change the directory to EXTERNAL storage
I've done tons of back ups in the past month, and restores, but I just recently started getting the error as in the op, and now it runs until it gets to image back up, and says it errors backing that up, and then quits. I have 6 GB free on my card, and I only keep the last successful back up in case of fails like this. I haven't changed anything on my own, and the same ROM I backed up last week I now can't. Somewhere something went bad I'm guessing, but I'm glad it's not me that did something wrong. I will try an internal save to see if that works. If that works then I will wipe my card's CW file, and try a fresh one. Maybe just doing a complete factory reset, and fresh new ROM will do the trick. I'll keep ya all posted since more than one is having this issue.

I had the same problem. To solve it all I did was open ROM Manager and reflash CWM.

No go for me. Just re-flashed CWM, and it still fails trying to back up image to either internal or external. ugh
Well I flashed a new rom from scratch, and now it works again. The old one must have gotten corrupt.

I cannot make backups to external as well. I am on Rom Manager V5.0.0.7 .
Has anyone tried twerp recovery for backups???

Nandroid Using CWM (using external SD)

I'm having an issue getting CWM to backup to external SD. Any idea why? It freezes up on "Backing up System".
Seems to work fine when backing up to internal SD.
Thanks in advance!
Try clearing out more space on you're SD card, it has been reported to work. It might work just try clearing more space in ur SD card
If I helped you hit that "thanks" button

I had plenty of room, 32 gb external class 10.
Not sure what it was doing. I switched to the latest release of TWRP. I'm sure I'll go back, but something different is good for awhile. Touch screen is nice and nandroids are quick.

Stuck in TWRP, No OS installed, no Nandroid

I didn't make a Nandroid backup because I use Titanium Backup instead.
So I did a factory reset and wanted to flash the new aokp build by task650. Failed in red error. I thought it was a bad download so I flashed the mirror. Still get the error.
So I'm stuck. I'm currently in TWRP copying my internal storage to an external sd card, but what do I do next?

Easiest thing would be to reboot into download and Odin back to stock.

Ah okay, that's what I was thinking but wasn't sure. Thanks for the quick response.
What I would do is take my ext SD card load or ROM on it via adapter to desktop/laptop and flash from ext SD card

Flashed stock samsung rom via odin three times. Installed TWRP and whatever ROM I try to flash I get a failed error. Anyone please? This is driving me crazy.

Just checking, did you install the latest version of TWRP specific to our phone? Wrong version would abort a flash.
You could always try loading up CWM and see if that will flash successfully.

what version did you use and was it a zip or tar?
What version of TWRP? 2.5 is the latest.
Try wiping your data. The one that removes EVERYTHING from the internal SD card.
