[Q] Strange SD card problem - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Well, I have a class 10 16 gb micro sd car. today after installing the Increase Internal Memory mod by XtremeSilencer, I partitioned it using the Minitool partition wizard. after booting it can't recognize the sd card but detects it in cwm. So I know my sd card is alright. so I flashed the whole rom(Revoluotion HD ICS) but still it can't recognize the sd card although detected in cwm just like previous times. After then I tried a lot like formatting it,partitioning it by both CWM & Minitool from FAT32 to FAT-EXT123..every format. But nope..nothing happened. I even flashed the stock firmware.. still no respite. please help.. :crying:

SD Card Partition error

Hi everyone,
I have a problem: I think I've ruined my 16GB Micro SD card.
I've tried to partition it using MiniTool Partition Wizard, into fat32 + ext3. Somehow, now Windows only sees 11.38GB on the card.
I've repeatedly formatted it to no avail. I've tried deleting all partitions using MiniTool, but it just keeps getting smaller! What am I doing wrong? How can I start again....I just want those 4 or 4 GB back!
Hi there. If I am not mistaken, Windows cannot recognized the ext partition. This is why you will only see the fat32 size. I suggest you to use Gparted live cd to repartition again your SD card

Yep, use Gparted and use a card reader or the phone in recovery. In recovery don't forget to mount all the partitions.

Use a usb card reader with gparted instead of through your phone

Connect the phone to the PC and mount the SD card from recovery BEFORE you turn the PC on and GParted should see it then.
Thanks a lot . mounting the phone before pc starts worked for me. Cant believe i wasted so much time because of this simple trick. Thanks once again

From what I can recall cwm only recognizes fat 32. You can format your sd card to fat 32 using a specific windows app. It's called guiformat.

You can also use Easus Partition Manager.
I've been using it for years. It's what I used to format my own 64GB MicroSD in Windows to Fat32.
It's free btw

Phone keeps ejecting 64gb SD Card

Was working fine up until I installed Death Star rom. I reverted back to Wicked and it continues to eject SD card right after it has been installed. I tried another 1gb sd card, works fine, no ejection. I put my 64gb sd in and it prepares it then ejects it, tried to manually mount it and it does the same thing. CMW will not mount 64gb sd card either. I did update CWM through Rom Manager (bought it FYI) but worked afer the update. This started happening minutes after it was updated.
Any ideas?

32GB micro SD card

Hey guys I recently purchased a 32gb SD card off eBay. Before I used it I formatted it to fat32 but it seems when ever I download a rom straight to the SD card from my phone it always get corrupts and stops me from doing anything in my recovery. I always get can't install <××××××> sdcard (bad) Aborted..etc. leading me to drag and drop everything to PC reformatting it. Anybody know I can avoid corruption. Thankyoi
