Ok when I got my note 2 I formatted my sd card through the phone. I was using it with my Droid Charge. No problems. Now that its in my note2 every CWM backup I do doesnt go to sd it goes to phone.(or titanium) I went to filemanager and I cant move the back ups to sd card. So my question is.. did I format sd incorrectly? Meaning I shouldve used PC or am I just missing something? I dont have a card reader and its a 32 gb sandisk.(rooted and stock) any help is appreciated. Thanks

When you are in CWM are you choosing to back up to external sdcard or just backup?

You can try formatting the memory card by connecting your phone in 'USB storage' to PC and format by PC and then repeat the process.
Hope it has works for you

Hello!
My Epic 4 G died and today I've bought Epic 4G Touch. Right now it is rooted and installed Clockworkmod recovery 4
Only one problem I don't understand. I took SD card from Epic 4G hoping to restore everything trough Titanium Backup. But I couldn't see nothing from SD Card. Put that SD card to the computer and everything is here. And available space saying that SD card not empty. But how can I use it?
Is this possible?
Help me, please?

Update cwm to one of the new ones they have been fixed to mount sd card not just internal
But if you are saying that titanium can't see it copy that folder from sd to internal and then use it

That's the problem. Update to new CWM where you can flash from internal or external SD card. Also, I recommended restoring apps only. I don't know if restoring data is a good idea...possible data corruption

Just thought you may need root explorer to copy that file from sd to internal ...or just do it on your computer

Had the same issue coming from my EVO 4G. Just used my computer to transfer over USB into internal memory.
Shortly after flashing CWM 5 (because I searched the interwebs for an answer) I was able to see everything on the SD card again.
The easiest way to fix this is to open titanium, hit the menu button, preference. Scroll down to "backup folder location" then hit "detect" then save and your done.

I have a rooted LG Nitro HD. I downloaded the Domination HD Rom. However, when in clockworkmod recovery, no .zip files found. Anyone else have this happen? I rooted using superoneclick.

Yeah, I had this happen with the CWM flashed from Rom Manager. I ended up going back to bytecode64's.

Copy your SD card to your computer (all the files), reformat the SD card in Windows, and then copy your files back on it. Then CWM Touch will see the files.
Thank you, kernelpan1c. Worked perfectly. My next step is to check out your rom. Looks pretty sweet.

I haven't done it with card in the phone. Go get a microSD adapter and format with Windows (considering you have a card reader).

Enable usb mass storage on your phone and windows should let you format it or boot in cwm, go to mount and storage, select mount sd card and then format sd card.

Same problem when using 16Gb micro sd card. For resolving this problem use micro sd card small capacity. I used 2gb card.

Hey guys, I did a quick search and couldn't find an answer. Basically, I'm having trouble with TWRP -- it won't mount/recognize my SD card at all. All the advice I've seen so far is to format the microSD card as fat32. Unfortunately, this fix doesn't work for me, as my SD is already formatted to fat32.
Are there any other alternate options?
Thanks!
EDIT: this is on TWRP 2.3.2.3
you probably need to update TWRP. If you rooted using the Galaxy Note 2 tool kit, it's a slightly older version. Here's the thread on TWRP, which you can find the latest version.
I think i'm on the newest version. I updated it a couple days ago using goo manager to 2.3.2.3, which seems to be the newest one
that would be the newest. I had that problem till I updated. My SDXC card is formatted in NTSF. Maybe, you need to reformat it in your phone.
yea, I'll try that. wish me luck

That's about right for available space you'll get. But can you mount or browse the card in twrp?

I'll check in a little bit phone is dead and cycling battery. But my 32gb showed up. Are you sure you're not changing it to show external storage
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
you need to go into advance menu, file manager. Then you need to look externalSDCard directory or similar name. That's your SDXC card. Don't use that external/internal option in one of the other menus.
This tends to be case in some of the file manager apps as well such as ES File Explorer.
ok, so, it seems it's not under external_sdcard, but under sdcard. So I guess to access the sdcard i have to go through that. Thanks for the help
Is there any way I can change the default backup location for TWRP to use the SD card? I can't backup to internal storage since I don't have enough space
I had a similar issue with this 2 days ago. ..Could not mount the 64gig sd card in trwp but works fine on the phone. ..I updated to the newest twrp yesterday and that resolve the issue. ..

I don't understand your problem when you go to twrp click install, you have the option to check to either internal or external right at the top.

This internal/external partition card storage is kinda hidden in plain sight...presuming the OP's SD card isn't toast.

Hidden in plain sight, really not that hard to see lol. If you can't take the 3 seconds to look where it says internal or external you shouldn't even bother trying to worry about it simple as that.

Tapping on "use external SD" just has it snap back to "use internal storage" and the error message "unable to mount '/external_sdcard'" comes up. So no, it's not that I'm blind.
Hi there, i've just flashed the awesome looking Rootbox ROM onto my Galaxy Note 2 n7100 but i can't see my external 64GB SD card??
Has anyone else had this issue??
Any help would be much appreciated!
You need to format the sdcard.

Hi there, thanks for your reply. I've formatted my card, but it still says SD Card is blank or has unsupported file system.
In the STORAGE options it says i can Mount SD card but it comes up saying 'Blank SD Card in my notification bar.
Then if i select the warning, it gives me the option to format the card. I try to do this but it gives me the same error of blank sd card etc..
Please help!!
Many thanks.
Try format in fat32
Window by default don't have option if your card is bigger than 32gb, use third party applications.

Maybe it's a ROM or Kernel problem..
Try other kernels like RedPill 1.42 maybe it fixes it.. (which I use right now)
Or try Jellybam 7.1 ROM (which I use right now)

I have a SanDisk 64gb micro sd card that my GN2 has decided is corrupted. I was using the JediX13 ROM but decided to try ParanoidAndroid. When I reverted back to the Jedi ROM my card could not be read.
I know my files are still there because when I load up TWRP recovery I can see all of them. Is there a way I can recover my files? Whenever I plug it into my computer it asks me to format it before I use it.
