I am running the minimalistic text widget with some of my system stats. On the right hand side it shows ?mb ?mb where it should say my ext SD card free memory. It does not seem to recognize my card. It is mounted. I have in mounted and remounted. I am running cyanogen 10 preview 8-8 build. Any help with this would be great.
I tried to post a screen shot but I can't post outside links till 10 posts lol.

I dropped my phone the other day and my gallery and all the other apps that require my sd card say no SD card detected. I've tried two different cards and am convinced it is broken or not functional. Has anyone had this problem? If so, any fix for it?
Update: I booted up in to clockwork and it read it there.

Do you have a PC access to a SD Card Reader?
You could copy all the files off; format it (fat32) and then put the files back on and put it back in the phone.
I've already tried a different card and it didn't work either

If it reads it in clockwork I would try Odin to full stock and see if it works there. Best method for finding out if it hardware or software.

I guess I'll have to. What build do you suggest?

SD Card loses detection
My Samsung Epic 4G's SD card loses connection at random times. In the middle of recording a video, or when idle, and it will not restore full function until I restart the phone.
When it fails, I cannot take pictures or video, or view my gallery. It says no SD card detected. When viewing the "My Files" folder or storage space meter, it still shows the card's folder directories, the files in them, how much free space is available, and I can open and view individual files and photos from there, but I cannot delete or modify them until I restart the phone.
It could not be connected by USB to the computer through the phone. It made connect and disconnect sounds rapidly and repeatedly.
The card works fine and transfers files to the computer with the MicroSD card adapter.
Disconnect problem persists after I removed all videos and photos to free 95% of the 16gb card's space.
Should I reformat?
Having a bit of trouble, cant seem to get the app to show free space or even total space on my extSD.
Using a aData 32GB in my Samsung S3. Nothing else seems to have a problem with the card.

I just started using Minimalistic Text and have the same problem .
I have a Samsung 32GB sd card.
If you find a work around please post.
Thanks
I too am having the same problem!
Minimalistic text displays question marks for the external SD size!
Okay, you know when u go to task manager, then u click on the Storage part...
Mine shows, 3 different storage locations, and how much is stores there...
First is System Storage
Second is USB Storage
Third is SD Card Storage
For some reason, everything on my phone, is only going to the USB storage now & so I have no room left.
I have lots of games & apps on my phone... Most I "moved to SD card".. Or so I thought...
If I go to an app & it says that it is installed on SD card, wouldn't that mean that it is on the SD Card storage??
I can't figure out why all my USB storage is gone now & I have almost all my SD Card storage space still available...
What could be the issue here?? It never used to be like this..
Anyone have any ideas.as what I can do to resolve this issue..
Any input, would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks guys!

The phone saves everything to the internal storage natively. I don't remember if the stock rom labels the internal as SD card and the external as external_SD or if it's just calk's rom. But if it does that could explain why when your trying to push stuff to the SD it's not working since the phones reads internal as SD card. You could try and look in the settings if your using an app to push stuff and specify the location or there's a thread in general I believe that shows how to make your external your "internal" storage and anything new should be saved to it.

It's an app. I had to uninstall Hotels.com due to this same problem.

How the hell can I figure which app?
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda premium
I had this same problem. Are you using an external sd card? If so remove it. Reset battery statistics and see if it is still draining. Also take note of what processes media server is using. I had to reformat my sd card... And put the files I wanted on it back on... Now everything works fine. Apparently I had a few files on my sd card that forced media server to be in a scanning loop.

Also, if you've ever linked that phone/sd to a Mac computer either via phone or sd card slot, Macs put erroneous files onto sd card. So I suggest formatting the sd card via phone or via a Windows system. FYI.

Are you talking about the the phones memory or the external memory card? Thanks

The physical sd card. My problem was that I have used that sd card since the days of my nexus one. When I took a look at that sd card on my mac and viewed the hidden files there were some odd files on it. So I did some googling and come to find out some of those files would craft problems with Android. So I backed up all my music and pics from the sd card into a Windows system. Then I reformatted the card, threw the files back on. And voila, it worked. I have seen on other forums that people have had this problem. Some of which weren't running sd cards. .. But this seemed to fix my problem. I must also add that I didn't narrow the problem down 100%. While reformatting I also deleted a lot of files from previous applications. So that not too say that maybe those particular files weren't causing the problems.

Sorry to bother you guys once again. But I'm still having some issues with my.phone storage. I can't figure out why everything is installing onto my USB storage instead of my SD card.
I don't really know how to exactly explain it. So what I did was take a screenshot of before and after, to try to show you what I mean...
This first screenshot is taken of an app I have. I went to my.task manager then to the downloads tab, and I chose an app that said it was "installed on device".. & this is what it says:
*(look at 1st picture)*
Ok.. So I click.on the "move to SD card" button, hoping to move it to the card.. I wait a few, then this next picture, is what it says after:
*(look at 2nd picture)*
I thought it was supposed to move it to SD card, but if you look at the numbers, there is still nothing on the SD card..
Why is this happening.. & how can I fix it, so it actually moves to the card? I'm running out of space on my USB storage..
Please help. Thanks guys
So, anyone have any.ideas.on how to fix my.storage issue?? Any.suggestions?? My.USB storage is almost full & my card is basically.empty.. I need to figure out what the problem is... I would appreciate any help at all. Thanks guys.

Are you on a stock ROM or on a JB leak?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
When you go to settings > storage and press the menu button is there an option for storage location? If there is switch it from internal to external. USB storage(internal) is seen as an SD card so move to SD moves it to rhe internal SD which has mucb higher read write speeds than an external class 10. You can also swap you camera location to external and download location to external and use internal for all apps. Even if you swap locations you're going to be limited to one or the other you can't use both at once for apps2sd

I went to settings, storage, then pushed menu button, but nothing happens. No menu came up.
I want everything to basically go to my external SD card. Any other way to default to my card??
