Mounted ReadOnly The sd card has an unexpected problem. Wtf is this -.-
Could be a number of issues but main cause is normally a corrupt file on sdcard or having your sdcard read ahead speed set too high.

It happened to me once
Backup the contents of ur card to ur computer then format SD card
while u are copying u may see some errors because there will be some corrupted files (Which can't be deleted) just skip the copying of those files, they'll be deleted while formatting

When you format ,you can still experience the issue and if that happens than you have a damaged sd card ,this same problem came up on my old wildfire with a bad sd card from ebay .

??? This doesn't mean you have a bad sdcard at all. I had this issue many times after mounting my phone to PC. I fixed by lowering the read ahead speed / eliminating a corrupt file on sdcard ( this could be any file,run a disk check whilst mounted to PC) I also only mount from recovery now and have not had the issue since.

Perhaps,but in my case the recovery didnt read it ,neither did the device,formatting on pc unsuccesful - Dead SD.
And yes ,before the critical end when I got the read-only issues, even if I did format for 4 times after each time that error showed up.

Hello everybody,
I bought the above micro sd card but the problem is when installed it i realised that the phone dont seem to be able to able to mount it...
what should i do ?
Is it formatted to Fat32?
The more important question is what message it shows when tried mount it.
I have had the same isue, only way for me was to use a RUU file

I googled and found this on a other forum:
Code:
I get error mounting sdcard (no such file or directory) and unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)
Edit: I Solved the problem by rebooting into recovery using rom manager. Thanks.
It's interesting how can be people independent and resourceful if the really want to. Then why we have so many question threads are beyond my comprehension.

Of course i googled before asking this question..
The problem is... I boot into recovery but i cant mount my SD. I used other phones and the card is recognised normally
An alcatel one touch 908 and my previous HTC touch HD.
I'm running Leedroid 3.3.3 Data++ version which means i cant boot without an sd card becouse many things run from the sd-ext partition and of course since i cant mount the SD i cannot even flash again Leedroid or any other Rom.. so i cant simply reboot into recovery using Rom Manager.
But since u told me all this i'm going to simply install a clean CM7 nightly and try to reboot into recovery via rom manager..
USB brick. Search for solution.
My usb working flawlessly. Everything happening had to do only with this specific card
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
As far as I know unable to mount sdcard is part of USB brick.
i can mount any other sd card but this specific one.... and i try to find what's wrong here..
Fire up Android and format SD card with it.

Where the hell did you get that information? The fact that an SD card cannot be mounted is not in the least related to a USB brick, they are two totally seperate issues. You may find that on restoring SD card functionality that you then have a USB brick but it's not necessarily so and it cannot be ascertained without first fixing the SD card issue (and by the symptoms as described I highly doubt he has a USB brick).
To the OP, I would suggest that you copy everything from the SD card to your PC via an SD card reader. You can then either format it via G-Parted (Linux bootable disk) or via MiniDisk Partition Wizard. Copy everything back plus the rom of your choice.
You'll then need to flash the rom (assuming that your phone now 'sees' the SD card). You're going to lose everything that you installed, there's no way around this. The copy back and forth is to restore your music / photos and if you're lucky one or two of your apps may find an existing file of history to restore.
Please also report any messages the phone gives regarding the SD card and also try another SD card (if you have one) before you go the above route.
wierd things happening....
When i boot into recovery with power+vol down i cant mount my sd but if i do it through rom manager it works flawlessly... anyway i kept it this way. I installed a clean CM7 build formated my card and then all the things i do i do them via Rom manager...
btw i see speed increase using a class 10 card compared to class 4

what are the recoveries u talking about?
when u go in recovery with power+vol down u access the permanent recovery (what version?); while using rom manager u access another recovery version probably (as rom manager use fake flash, even if the latest version should use permanent flash)
sorry for being late answering..
both recoveries are 5.0.2.0

Put your sdcard into pc and scan for errors. Fix. If not, try FULL format fat32 default allocation.
Edit: don't forget to backup important contents to pc first

Hello,
Yesterday while downloading stuff, my phone suddenly sent me a notification that my SD card is broken. I can access everything in Recovery somehow. What I've tried :
- un-mounting & mounting again
- re-flashing
- factory reset
- format in recovery
And everything that I listed above failed. When I plug my card into PC it doesn't open. My whole window is not responding. I've tried mounting it on my older phones (Nokia 2730 & LG KP500), and only Nokia readed my card, but I couldn't do anything because it was password protected. Every possible password I had for my old SD card wasn't the right one. I've already googled but nothing mentioned before helped. When I formatted in recovery it only froze. When I switched ROMs to more "original" one, when I plugged my SD card it was automatically removed. Also my SD card is EMTEC 16 gb Class 4, and just in case I have my old 1 gb sd card lying around.
There is a possibility that your SD card is damaged..........one way of trying to cure it is to somehow try to make it work on your computer and Format it............or just try to format it on the phones that it works on

Going to try format on my old Nokia. But I was thinking, if I can get my SD card to work in Recovery, isn't there anyway to connect my phone to my PC and then try to format?
EDIT: Tried formatting on Nokia 2730 - it was failure. I couldn't because of the password.

In recovery, I should press mount usb right?
Yes
I did as you said and in Partition Wizard it showed me that the whole disk is used, file system was bad disk, and type was logical.
When I tried to format it said "Windows was unable to continue formating".

[Q]: how do i access the SDcard when it wont let me into the card or it shows it is unavailable?
Try to format the card in pc using an incompatible format like ntfs and then put it in the phone and then the phone should ask you if you want to format the card. If not try to go to settings and format manually.

dude. just format the sdcard using your pc in FAT16 format. you can also try fat32 but I don't know how it plays with android.
cheers!
PS: after you format it using the above method, it's good to take the sdcard out from your phone and then put it back. just to be on the safe side

well...tried FAT16 and no luck?
im getting very frustrated at the thought of a phone that doesnt even see a simple SDcard when my PC does?
Well it might be some hardware issue. The phone does not recognize that sd card is in right? Does the phone show something when you plug in the card while the phone is on?
Did you try to put in other card?

nothing shows up when putting the card into the phone while it is on, but it does state SDCARD REMOVED when pulling it out from the phone
May be the SD card have some defect. Insert some other SD card and see if the phone nose it out.

ill probably end up doing that and just buy a new sdcard but i have a feeling itll do he same thing seeing as my PC sees it just fine and my last phone used it without a glitch. Now formatting this card for this phone, ive lost 1gb of photos!
Well I just did a small test. I have formatted a spare SD card with NTFS(I used MiniTool Partition Wizard for that) and put it in the phone. It told me that the SD card is blank and not properly formatted and asked if I want to format the card.
So this is something that your phone should do too. So my conclusion is that there must be either something wrong with the card or with the phone. So hurry to try a different SD card and if it doesn't work you should ask for replacement device.

thanks everyone so very much for all your help!!!
i called Future Shop (where i purchased my device) and explained everything including your guys help to them, and they said it sounds like the devices card reader is defective. So...seeing as i just got this on Friday last week, i can exchange it for a new device at no cost.
:good:
just got back in from future shop....
seems it was the sdcard that was defective but...
after coming home, i reformatted the old sdcard back to ntfs and dropped a pic on it from my PC and it still works?? lol
for some odd reason the device just didnt see the card? maybe cuz it was generic? maybe cuz it was only 1gb? i dunno??
however...got me a new 8gb sdcard for 14.00, thatll do me just fine!!
again, thanks for all the help

I am also having same problem with my htc one v
plzzzzzzz help me
I dnt knw wht to now
I have tried all the technic which is written above but still the problem is same
I have started having sd cards issues recently... (like 1 month now)..
1) i sometimes get usb brick according to 4ext ... when i boot in recovery, it says sd card can't be mounted and i need to use the usb unbrick tool (never had such issue with cwm.. maybe it's 4ext related).. often get this when i have copied big files to my sd card or i have just flashed a new rom or sometimes without doing anything special... maybe after a black screen of death)
2) when i copy files to my sd card, it sometimes takes a lot of time (at some point, progress bar remains static) or sometimes i get an error IO device error... need to unmount and remount to my pc.... and windows asking me to scan and fix
3) i often get scan and fix when connecting my htc desire to my pc...
4) i sometimes gets black screen of death and this most of the time results in "scan and fix" message by windows when i connect it to pc..
is my sd card getting old and not working well as i used too much a2sd based scripts? or is my phone sd card reader getting defective (hope it's the first one as i am getting a new class 10 card anyway soon)
how will know what is wrong? are the a2sd scripts damaging my sd card? thx for reading and waiting for your opinions and help thx
How did you partition your sd-card?
i used one of the tutorial on xda... (the one using gparted) and i have been using this partitioned sd card for about 2 years now with no major issues... it's recently that it started to show issues.
Try repartitioning it. If it's still faulty, then change it.
ok thx will try that... but how to know whether it's my htc desire sd reader which is faulty or it's the sd card?

Try using another card afterwards. If it's the same, then it's a reader fault.
haven't try repartitioning my sd card yet.. i have too much stuff to backup.. anyway is there a cause for usb brick/io errors? i got a usb brick today.. can't copy files and 4ext recovery can't mount sd card... i never got that before
