Can't find SD card - HTC One X

I've just installed my first ROM ICJ 4.2.2 which is great. Apart from the fact when I plug my phone into PC it won't show up to put music photos etc on. And in the storage settings it says I only have 468mb free on external storage. I have been into recovery and tried to mount the SD but nothings working. Please help sorry if extremely noob question.

this happened to me last week actually. When I went to settings/storage it only showed up the app storage and not the internal storage.
What I did was a bit extreme and scary, since I only just started flashing roms 2 weeks ago. I did a factory reset and wiped EVERYTHING in recovery including the sdcard and system, then I used an all-in-one toolkit to push the boot image and the rom through adb sideload. I used the following excellent post and flashed twrp recovery, as clockworkmod doesn't support adb sideload, apparently, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069904
Maybe as a last resort you could do it, it worked for me. but I would wait a day or two to see if someone with a bit more knowledge can suggest anything.

Thank you for you help i can see sd storage the seetings>apps but it only says 468mb is there anything else i do or will have have to wipe and start again??

That 468MB is your app storage partition... (apk)

Mount your usb storage from a custom recovery and backup the whole SD on your pc, then boot into the rom and mount the SD on your PC then restore all the files.
Or simply, move all SD content into the "0" folder or whatever its called in your rom.

How did you sideload the boot.img?
AFAIK you're only able to sideload a .zip-file.

Didn't word that correctly, the toolkit flashed the boot image in fastboot and then pushed the rom through sideload. I don't use toolkits now though, find it much easier using fastboot and adb commands

[Q] SD card wont mount in cmw recovery

The sd card has never given me an issue, I can always make changes to it and the phone reads it fine. But when I go to recovery mode to flash a rom it gives me an error that it can't mount the sd card. I've already rebooted the phone, took the card out and still the same. Any opinions? Do I have to format the card or something? I really want to avoid that

I had same/similar problem and had to format the card in the phone not in a computer. Would not convert to ext4. Back up your card, format, and install CWM. Transfer back your folders. Worked for me..

Sounds like your cards have became corrupted. Just back up what you want to save to your pc. Format the sd card using cwm.

I thought you were saying that when you attempted to Mount your SD card you received an error as I did. I had no problems converting to ext4 and installing ROMs, my error only occurs when I attempt to use the Mount SDCard function.

sd card not detected on phone or pc

Hey guys,
A friend of mine gave me his desire to root and flash a rom, while I was partitioning the SD card - everything went well (I used a windows app to create the partitions while the desire was plugged in in USB mode.
All went well until I disconnected it after the process was complete - now the phone nor PC detects the card.
What are my options?
Cheers
You're using a usb card reader on your pc or whilst in your phone (plugged in via cable)?

Like rootSU said, try it with GParted in your pc and see if it can find it. If so, format it all and re-partition it.
OK I managed to get it fixed - seemed like an issue with the partition - I used recovery to mount USB storage (it worked) and I re partitioned it and it is now functioning correctly.
Cheers guys and thanks a lot everyone for their inputs !

You're very lucky, its an awful app. I feel so strongly about it, I even put it in my signature (incase you missed it).
I bet its because you used minitool that it broke in the first place.

hi. i've faced the same problem too with my galaxy mini.
but, when i mount usb storage it said that "unable to write to umslunfile (no such file or directory)" . and when i format sd card it said "error mounting sd card, skipping format".
my sd card cant detected by any phone or laptop. cant be formatted or mounted. what to do? please help me. there's so much important things there.
Hi there,
Ive been through the same issue just the other day and after read and try lots of things, i had to do something stupid but has worked for me... If you have a digital camera laying around, put your sd card and camera will do its thing..will prompt you asking if you want the sd to be formated... Thats it sd alive and hoping to receive runny rom in my case
hope this works for more people. Take care. Peace.

Download the rom on your pc, connect the phone to the c via usb cable, on the phone select mount as disk drive, it'll pop up on your pc, drag it over, unmount / disconnect, reboot into recovery, do all the wipes I listed previously [dalvik cache is located under advanced] then install zip > select and flash, reboot.

Need help ASAP

A little while back I posted a thread asking the following.
"Just recently rooted my friend's GN2, I transfered the files to the SD card and went into CWM recovery. I'm having 2 issues.
1: The phone says there's not enough room to make a backup when there clearly is. I have about 2 gigs on the internal, but but it either says I have 3mb of free space or 0.
2: I click 'install from SD' and the only file it sees is "-clockworkmod/ ".
What am I doing wrong? I personally have an S2 and it's very similar but these two things are preventing me from flashing any rom"
The only person to respond recommended I format the sd card so I did so. However the phone still did not recognize any files in the sd card so I couldn't flash any rom. Upon startup it began boot looping and the phone is no longer activated? It can't make calls or send texts and reboots every minute upon ' failed activation'. The phone currently is useless. I'm not new to flashing roms I've been doing it for years but this is the first time I'm stumped thanks to some bad advice (not blaming that person) and it's not even my phone. Luckily I just got an htc one and I could give my friend the my s2 until the problem is fixed...any ideas how to fix it? Or unroot at least to bring in for repair?

Yes use twrp. Find the latest version and flash it in clockwork. I havent used cwm since my og evo lol.
Maybe I'm old school but I'm a long time flasher and I've always just been more comfortable with cwm. But I'm not so sure it's a kernel issue?
Edit: and the issue is that I can't flash anything because I can't store anything on the sd card. I'm thinking of odining to a stock build?

The only thing I can suggest is doing a quick format on the SD card to FAT32, especially if the card is a 64 GB card. Also, some Sandisk 64 GB cards were bad from the factory, so check that too. Finally, if all else fails, try breaking the phone even more to the point it won't even boot and get a replacement.

Don't come up with one. Just take it in and show them. Before you take it in, if you can, try to reset the flash counter. If they can check that and see it isn't correct, you're in trouble. If it's reset or it can't be checked, then take it in.

Ok...what files did you transfer to the sd card? Was it the internal or external? Even 2 gigs on the internal for a backup may not be enough. I have a backup that is just over 3 gigs. As far as formatting your external sd what did you do ? Fat32? Personally TWRP is the way to go. Try to format fat 32, download a stock rooted TW rom and put on external sd, also dl TWRP recovery to external sd. Boot into cwm recovery and try to flash twrp. If that works out pull battery put back in volume up+home+power. Hopefully that gets you to twrp, if so go to wipe then factory reset. If you click on advanced it will let you wipe system which couldn't hurt. After that, back arrow on bottom of screen to twrp home screen. Click install...choose external then locate where rom is...hopefully on root of external and see if that helps.
Oh and was the phone activated prior to flashing?

Please do the following:
01). Format the SD card to FAT32 (NOT EXFAT OR NTFS) on ANOTHER computer and do NOT use the built in windows format options. Use a third party tool like guiformat.exe and do NOT USE QUICK FORMAT. (With my current sd card, windows format failed, guiformat.exe partially failed(and by failed I mean formatted fine but caused problems being seen) but I installed and used eausus partition master to regular format it to fat32 and followed the next few steps and its been working fine ever since.
02). Immediately after formatting the SD card slow format to fat32 in easus partition master create a text file on the sd card in its root directory (I've had an issue before where my SD card would not be seen or writable by certain devices if the root directory was 100% empty), before you copy any further files insert the SD card into the phone and use your recovery kernel(CWM/TWRP) to navigate to the root directory of the sd card and insure that you can in fact see the text file you created, POWER OFF THE PHONE(or alternatively unmount it in android terminal if possible) before removing or inserting the SD card(also always eject from the PC before removing, do not just rip it out off the usb slot/card reader), insert the SD card back into your PC/card reader and copy TWRP to the sd card.
03). Boot back into your current recovery and Install TWRP(if it's not already) you may prefer CWM but TWRP just causes people a lot less bugs in general.
04). Verify in the backup section of TRWP that you have explicitly selected external storage as the backup location and given the backup a name, as internal storage is selected by default, and you very well may not have enough free internal storage for the backup, regardless of whatever reasons you think you should.
05). Its probably a good idea to turn off md5 verification of the backup, I do this every time, the one time I did try to verify a backup with an md5 checksum it failed, I unchecked this option backed up restored to it and all was fine(and still is), also a good idea to uncheck md5 when installing roms/kernels/apk's as most don't have md5.
05). If the above does not work you probably have a bad SD card, try another and post back here.

There is
no external sd card in the phone. Just a 16g internal, and I've wiped pretty much everything so there shouldn't be a problem with room. I'll go out and buy an external and attempt to flash something.

Can't thank you enough for the post, I appreciate it. Parts if it are a little over my head (most of it actually) but I'll try and manage aha.

Is there a separate program I need that manages the phones memory temporarily through an external hard drive or...

I think I might have misunderstood your original question I apologize. Those instructions relate to an external SD card
Il if you are treating the phone plugged into a computer via USB the same way you would treat an external microsd card you are making a huge mistske/misconcepyipn ..
I am at work right now so I can't help further but at this point you need to.find and follow the instructions to restore the phone back.to its stock state and start from.fresh. I will post back tonight with instructions to do that and the best way to root and custom recovery currently when I get home

Thanks. The problem is that the phone boot loops so fast that I can't stick anything on the internal. And the one time it was on long enough to, the phone still reads that there's no files there. It's why I'm in this mess in the first place, I don't know why it's not recognizing any files

If you wiped everything then you might have wiped the partitions by accident. Get an ext sd card put flashable rom on that then boot into your custom recovery and try flashing the ROM through that

That seems like the best thing...won't the phone still rely on the internal sd card though and keep bootlooping?

Odining back to stock is prooobably your best bet. No need to go through repair fees or restocking fees etc. When you can fix it in house.

It should not rely on the internal. Download mode is deep down in the bootloader. If you borked that then jtag or sending it to samsung/asurion is the only option.

Try a stock rooted rom and see if it works. Because it should at least give you the boot.img in the rom so you might be able to get past the boot screen. Hopefully it will re partition your phone. Im not for sure but its worth a shot.

Help!!! My Htc m9 is not detected in twrp by my pc

I rooted my htc m9 and had a working stock rom on it but i did something to it which deleted the original stock rom and now it won't get detected by my pc, It only goes into recovery and is rooted. I have the latest htc drivers and got the android studio installed, when i select mount in twrp it says "E: Unable to find storage partition to mount to USB", adb devices doesn't work either tho it did before now it says ; "List of devices" with nothing listed underneath.

it's on the side of the phone above the volume buttons
I'm absolutely gobsmacked that you can root a phone and not know where the sd slot is..
Priorities wrong?
I wish I stole my HTC M9.

Hahaha i thought he meant internal storage. I know where the sd slot. This is the third phone i've rooted and it has proven to be the hardest or at least the most temperamental. Anywho the sd card thingy seems to have done the trick. It installs the rom and loads correctly now to find an actual working rom. Cyanogenmod is still too buggy to use.
