Here are a few possibilities:
- does the card work in any other devices? pc, phone, etc.?
- format card after saving files if needed.
- try a different card. Possibly a bad card.

I flashed thw stock kernel and problem went away
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium HD app

Hello,
I am having this exact same problem. This is after flashing Wicked rom version 8. Do i have to go back to cyanogen mod or can this be fixable. Can I flash the stock kernel like the above user did, but on top of Wicked rom?
I dont have a card reader on my computer so I cannot format it from there. Is there way I can format it through my phone and see if that works?
Sorry I am a newb to all this.
thank you.

Any idea on what I can do?
- The SD card works (tested it on another phone)
- I first got this message when I rooted the device (I was running everything stock back then) Then I flashed cyanogen mod (stable) and the SD card worked perfectly.
- Now i flash Wicked rom v8 and the problem appears again
plz help.....I'm going to try to reroot and see what happens.

ok sickkkkk i got it to work. Flashed ChronicKernel and now external SD card is mounted. FK YA!

problems restoring hellybean

I have been using hellybean for a couple of months now. I have found that I have problems doing restore to a previous version.
Some background. I have had SD card issues in every version after 20131013. MY SD card frequently becomes inaccessible . I have not been able to find a solution for this so I end up reverting back to 20131013 release. Each time a new release comes out I try it. The SD card issue is still there for me in the 20131029 version which for me makes it unusable......
Anyway, I always do a back up before trying a new version. What I have found is that that I can't restore with my backup. The phone boots but when the hellybean animation appears it is blue instead of red. It spins and spins and eventually the phone just shuts off.
At this point I have to boot into recovery and do a wipe and install to get back to a working phone.
If I do a backup and restore on the currently installed version everything works as expected. The restore issue also occurs if I try to restore after installing a different 4.3 rom.
Can any one tell me what is causing this?
My Recovery is TWRP 2.6.1.0

Are you saving your nandroid in internal storage or external SD card? If it is external, it may not be working properly because it keeps unmounting and scanning. Just a guess. Also, that sd card issue is not just with Hellybean, I have had it on 3 different 4.3 ROMS recently.

Thanks for the reply. Good point, it is on external. I didn't think about that. I will test this tonight.

Ok I wiped my phone completely including the internal sd, everything but the external sd. I installed the 20131013 version of hellybean. did the setup, made sure everything worked. then I did a backup to the internal sd. download and dirty flashed the latest hellybean. did the setup etc.
then I attempted to restore the earlier version. The restore said that it was successful but on rebooting, once again the hellybean animation was blue instead of red and and after a couple of minutes the phone just shut off and I had to do fresh install to get back to a working phone.
I really can't understand why I can't do a restore.

1. boot to recovery (TWRP 2.6.1.0)
2. I do a backup,
3. do a wipe , not advanced wipe.
4. flash the ROM
5. Flash gapps if necessary
6. reboot system
7. wait 10 minutes or so
8. reboot again
9. go though setup.
The problem occurs if I decide that I preferred my previous set up and attempt to do a restore. I have been using hellybean (love it!). I am using the version from 20131013 . if i try to restore this from my back up after flashing another ROM or a later version of hellybean the restore says that it was successful but after rebooting either the screen is unreadable. random colors etc or the phone just shuts off. The animation for hellybean on reboot after an attempted restore is blue instead of red....
I have found that if I reflash hellybean after trying another ROM and then do a restore is works.

Please help

I have the HTC One 8 and its rooted with TWRP 2.8.1.0 and its say 0 space left on my sd card ..there is no ROM installed at all i may have accidentally wiped the data, I all i want to know is how can i get a ROM back on it?

Do you have an external SD card? If so download a ROM to it, put it in your phone, and from recovery do a full wipe before flashing.

That worked. Thanks. I just got the m8,, had a m7. The m8 is waaay better on so many levels. Great battery life, 100% faster. Plus the invaluable SD card slot. Thanks again.

Soft bricked my device, Odin failure everytime

I tried installing xposed framework via TWRP and ended up with a bootloop. I attempted to fix this by using Odin, however I keep getting a failure. I also tried to use MTP via TWRP and I keep getting a failure when copying over a file. I am in desperate need of help!

Don't leave me hanging here guys

Well if you are updated to current tou would be oe1 no longer bob7 and oe1 cant be rolled back to bob7. Best thing there is one rom that works that is bob7 and that is noterized rom. This is a great rom as well to be stuck on till the oe1 tar is released or rumored oe3 being tested. Just download and follow SaintZ93 installation instructions. Hopw this helps.

Thanks man, I really appreciate it. Can you throw some ideas at me on how I can transfer files to my phone? MTP doesn't work

If you have twrp you can mount it to computer and do a slow transfer but works, or pull sd card and transfer straight to card. Then place back in phone and do wipe x3 not sd card, restart recovery and then install rom from sd card. and then follow instruction for Rom installation.

Do you have another sd card you can use or another phone to reformate the sd card. then follow needed steps to have twrp install rom. as well you should be able to move to phone storage to flash this rom just do your wipes first then twrp to comp and move to internal memory (phone). Make sure you have a good brand sd card as well the cheap 12 dollar ones just dont cut it most of the time. I try them and most of the time i get burned.

Like he said...if you took OE1 update, Notorized rom is the only one out there right now that will work with the OE1 kernel. All the other roms out there are written and work with previous firmware kernel BO7.

That is correct this rom is the only one i have gotten to work, we are waiting on the OE1 Tar to drop so Dev can start to switch over but I have a feeling we wont see a TAR till oe3 comes out. Which in that case you can not go to oe3 till the TAR drops and flash through Odin. Sorryman but you are stuck, the best part at least it is a great rom to use and stable.

how do i install twrp on oe1 update

Even on OE1, I believe it's still the same as normal:
-download odin to your pc, download twrp to your pc
-power off Note 4 first, then turn on by pressing: power + home + volume down (then hit volume up to continue when prompted on screen)
-connect phone to pc (download/install samsung drivers if you haven't already), now load up odin & make sure you're connected to phone & now you can install TWRP

[HELP] CM13 On Verizon HTC 10

For those who are familiar with the process of getting the CM13 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/alpha-cyanogenmod-13-0-unofficial-t3465667) booting on verizon/sprint I ran into some trouble. So in trying to install I first superCID to 22222222 which worked fine, I then flashed the file that @holofractal provided from my external_SD (thank you for providing) in download mode, phone then rebooted and went through everything and turned my phone off. Upon manually going into recovery from my phone being off MY SD CARD WAS WIPED! I have 0 clue what went on, my backup on my external SD did not work either so I attempted to install CM after this all went down (did not work). So I usb-otg-ed leedroid and that booted up fine. Anybody know what is up?
Verizon HTC 10
S-off and unlocked

Are you sure you data was actually wiped? I went through something similar on my Verizon 10, installed the U.S Unlocked firmware from the same thread as you, and when I rebooted I had no ROM and couldn't see my internal SD card in TWRP anymore . Restoring old fw didn't work either. Flashing the no-wipe RUU from dottat's thread did work though, and I was able to re-access all my data without any loss.
For what it's worth, it was mentioned in the CM thread that after changing CID and flashing a new fw, you have to format your SD card anyway for a ROM to work.

I forgot to mention that your internal sd would be wiped. Also, k thought a backup would work, but apparently not, I too learned that the hard way.
Just set up everything again. I know it's a pain. Use titanium backup for apps next time. That's what I do.

So am I good to go now with everything? Still unsure why CM13 failed to flash. Maybe because the file was on a USB OTG?

Yes, I don't think it'll work off that. Are you using multirom?
It shouldn't fail. Try flashing it from the external sd card.

Okay, so if my SD card was wiped than it is formatted? (wipe = format, right?). Also what is dottat's no-wipe RUU? I am going to try to install CM now so will you guys know if it works.

Here's what I would do. If you have already done any of the steps I list just skip them.
1. Back up important data if you wish.
2. Install firmware package. I am a sprint user, I used 1.95.403.1 international firmware. I removed the radio.img and edited the android-info.txt file to match my MID.
3. In TWRP, go to wipe, and format data, type yes and click enter.
4. Check your log by clicking the hamburger menu button in the bottom right corner. If you see red text like Mounting error for preload and cache, wipe them either with fastboot (I haven't done that) or, what I did was install LeeDroid, which wiped those partitions.
5. Install the ROM of your choice. (I've noted that I still had to use a Sprint specific kernel for my device, which makes me theorize that the firmware update zip might not change all partitions, which you'd need an RUU for to flash everything, I haven't tested that as my device works fine.)
6. Boot CM. Sometimes the screen will go dark, be patient with it, should boot in 5 minutes or less.
Try these and if they don't work, lemme know. I got nothing going on.

Go to settings, Cellular settings, network operator, let it load, and select the Verizon option. Go home, then open the settings app again (without closing the other one), and select the CDMA+LTE/EvDo option. Check your APN.
