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.

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.
Sorry for my English.

ok...so I am a noob to rooting. but i was able to successfully root my gs3 with the latest cm10 nightly rom dated 9/04. My external sd 64gb card keeps coming up as a damaged card. so i took it to my pc..reformatted and did a chkdsk x: \f and that worked on my pc. i can see 64gb on the card. but when i put the card back in to the phone, it still says damaged sd card. if i click format..it just unmounts forever and then just goes back to the home screen. any tips would be greatly appreciated.

under storage it also does not show that i have a 64gb card installed. so not only does the notification say that the card is damaged even though my pc will detect and use the card fine..but the storage on the phone is limited to the 16gb that came with the phone
Is your card exfat or fat32? Cm doesn't recognize exfat.

I'm having the same exact problem. Using a Sandisk class 10 64gb SD card.
I tried formating to FAT32 using a utility mentioned

I ended up using Guiformat and that worked
I did a chkdsk x: /r from command line first. Then I ran that app above on my pc and it worked

Google the HP format tool. It looks just like the windows format tool but fixes format issues the windows one cannot.

I just flashed to CM10M1 and it now tells me that my SD is damaged. I have tried to format it using the phone but the unmounting seems to be taking really long. I have already tried formatting it on my PC, which works, as well as transferring files over, which also works, but when I put it into my phone i comes up with the same error. It is a SanDisk 64GB Mobile Ultra MicroSDXC Class 10. Any help?

I've heard some people had a problem after flashing CM10 with backups done with ROM manager. They said deleting the backups solved it, which doesn't really make sense if you've already formatted the card on your computer, but maybe it'll lead you in the right direction.

What format are you running? I think it has a problem with exFAT format.
Running exfat, will try reformatting to NTFS and will get back to you

How exactly do you do that?

I figured out how to format but it just tell me now that it is ready to be removed. Does it have to be in exFAT or NTFS when I format it

Try FAT32. It worked for me. It does say ready to be removed in your storage settings but you should also be able to see the external SD card. Use Solid Explorer and see if you can see the external SD.
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

Wow. What a brain fart!! Thank both of you

Last night I decided to restore my phone back to the stock ROM. I've completed this process countless times before without ever having this problem. I made my backups via Titanium and TWRP recovery. Since I had a lot of photos saved internally, I wanted to move them to my SD card before going back to the stock ROM since they would have been deleted. I used my file manager and MOVED folders containing the pictures that I wanted to save to my SD card. I think this is where my problem stems from. I probably should have copied the folders instead of just moving them. After the stock ROM loaded up I went through the introduction steps and afterwards I noticed the "Your SD card is safe to remove" notification. I went to settings to try and mount the SD card but the setting app ends up crashing. Thinking I made a mistake while going back to stock, I restored my phone back the ROM I was using my backup only to find out that the problem still persisted. The card can be mounted in windows and in recovery mode. I have no idea how to make my phone mount it normally though.
Since you restored stock and are having problems I would flash stock via Odin without the sdcard in the phone just to be sure.

I just tried that and it still didn't mount. I should probably note that it's my 64GB SD card that cannot be mounted and my 16GB one can.
Fat32?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well then sounds like an issue might be with the format of the card. Try backing it up to pc then formatting it as a fat file system instead of exfat.

I backed up everything from my SD card to my desktop and reformatted it as exFAT (since that's how I originally formatted it) and now my phone can mount it normally again. Still not sure what made it unrecognizable to my phone, but I'm glad I don't have to purchase a new 64GB SD card now. Thanks for helping guys. Much appreciated.

I still suggest using plain fat since exfat is not supported 100% by all roms/kernels. This could save you from issues later if you change from stock roms to custom roms.
