Try twrp. It could be your sdcard going bad. Its definitely not a common problem though.
Is the card mounted?
You could save to internal, then copy it over.

Try on another sd card if you have one. That will tell if the sd card is faulty or not.

I just bought a 32gb sd card for my phone. When I try to flash a Rom or do a nandroid backup it fails. Do I need to do anything special? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Make sure your backup is being sent to the sdcard and not internal memory ...cuz the internal memory may be full and therefore causes the back up to fail because there's no room....if your using rom manager go to the settings and it'll let you choose whether you want to do backups with internal or external.....this can also be done within recovery as well but I don't have the options memorized to dictate them to you

Is there any rom that I can use odin since I don't have microsd?
Only stock based roms that I am aware of. But you don't need sdcard. You can copy them to phone storage and flash them from there.

What he said, but still I'd buy a cheap 2gb sd card at least, as you can't nandroid to internal storage methinks.
Yes,you cant backup on internal sd.
Couldn't you use twrp to backup to internal?

You can backup to internal. You could do it on the previous cwm kernels and you can on agats kernel. Haven't tried any others.

I was having no problems using and accessing my external sd card from within CWM. Than after some flashes and wipes trying out different roms, and even a complete reset to original rom through ODIN to try and fix it. I can no longer use my external sd card in CWM. It says something along the lines of E:/ cannot mount external sd. Does anyone know what could be causing this, and if there are any solutions?

If the card still reads on your PC I would try to take everything off it and re-format the card.Also maybe try TWRP.I don't have CWM right now but there is probably a selection in it to mount/unmount sd.I know in TWRP the option is there.
HaHa, I had the same problem last night and after spending 5 hrs +, I finally fix it...
After flashing some PA, Jellybam roms, both recovery and the rom can no longer see my mircoSDXC 64gb card. Flashing the latest cwm or twrp did't work. Doing numerous quick and full format on the card to fat32 and exfat didn't work. Restore the stock rom and finally the rom can see the card; however recovery still can't read it. Formatting the card with the rom didn't work. Went to the store and grab a brand new card and still no luck. FINALLY... odin a new cwm recovery fix the problem.... :banghead:

Did you use goo manager to flash? That just pushes the recovery img to the phone not flash it. Ive never had a problem with TWRP with any phone or tablet ive used. CWM on the other hand....thats a different story.

Here's my data point. I had the exact problem of clockworkmod unable to mount external sd card while making a nandroid backup. I tried it via the paid ROM manager plus app without any luck. I sent them a log file.
Then I tried goo manager + twrp and it worked. I donated to twrp.

GooManager/TWRP worked for me.
Sucks trying to use internal memory to flash with only 16GB total.
This is a limitation of driver support for ExFAT, you can force windows into formatting fat32 using a 3rd party utility like this one:

I know this will sound stupid, but I'm kinda new to this and I accidentaly formatted everything on my phone. Basically the only thing I can do now is boot into recovery mode. How cani fix this? Can I just flash a rom from my external sdcard?
Yes you can

So you didn't format everything if your sd card still good. Also in yourcase you should of probably have had a nandroids backup on the sd card.

If you formatted everything including the SD card that had your nandroid like I did a while ago, you can follow this guide:

goodluck
Put a rom on your sd card from your PC... put sd card back in your phone. Boot into recovery and flash.

I tried to run a backup using CWM recover 6.0.3.1 and I keep getting an error "cannot find mount point." it will backup to the internal storage but will not backup into the sd card. I have tried almost everything. Backing up to internal and moving it to sd, that takes to long. I have also tried to un mount/mount the card, move backup path, fix permission, re flash CWM. Please help! Thanks
