Has anyone else seen the ext SD card mount as R/O and not R/M each time the device boots up? I am running 4.2.2, have made no changes for weeks now, and suddenly just noticed this.

I've rooted my Desire and installed the LeeDroid flavour of Froyo. I've formatted my SD card with the EXT3 partition, and everything went perfectly. However, I've found that when I run the new 3D Gallery application, the app stops resonding, and I need to close it (not force close though, just usual exit). When it closes, I receive a message saying "there is a problem with your SD card", and it mounts read only. I can remount the SD card, which resolves the problem. I'm guessing that the 3D Gallery is corrupted somehow, but can't uninstall it to see if this corrects the problem. Can anyone please let me know if there's a way of uninstalling the Gallery app (if this is the best way), or if there's a way to file check the SD card to fix errors (like FSCK), or if I can remove a corrupted directory, or anything really to fix this problem? Thank you
It's the A2SD+ bug. Search for SD card corruption.
use card reader to copy everything from your SD card FAT32 partition to your computer, format the SD card (just format the FAT32 partition), and transfer back the files from your computer to the card. that should do the trick.
always reboot your phone after going into Disk Drive mode to prevent this from happening again. or transfer files in recovery mode. that's A2SD+ bug. otherwise use rom without A2SD+.
I’ve recently upgraded the SD card in my desire to a 16GB class 4 and its giving me some major issues! I’m running OpenDesire 4.0.1 and the sequence of events was as follows:
1. Inserted new SD card and formatted with gParted: 512MB Ext3 and the rest FAT32 (Ext3 partition was at the end – hope that’s correct!)
2. Rebooted fine and all the apps stored on the internal memory were present and correct. Those that I had moved to the old SD card were missing so I uninstalled them.
3. Tried to install Estrongs file manager from appbrain using the fast web installer function. This downloaded OK but the phone rebooted during installation. Tried again but same thing occurred again.
4. Tried plugging phone into PC. USB debugging mode started up fine but I wasn’t offered the option of mounting the SD card
5. Unplugged USB and inspected phone storage menu to find that no SD card was mounted
6. Rebooted a few times, removed and reinstalled SD card etc – still no SD card detected by the phone
7. Booted into recovery, connect phone to PC and used the “mount USB” option in Clockwork mod. This was successful and allowed me to inspect my SD card on the PC. Noticed that Dalvik cache and some apps (those not included as part of the ROM) were present on the SD card (FAT32 partition) – OpenDesire must have moved them there automatically (but why to the FAT32 partition and not Ext3?).
8. Rebooted phone out of recovery to check that those apps that appeared on the SD card were accessible in Android. Found that they were, which is strange given that the SD card was still not being detected by the system.
9. Decided to mount SD card again via clockwork recovery method and formatted the FAT32 partition with gParted.
10. Rebooted phone and found SD card still not detected and all those apps that had magically been moved to the SD card by OpenDesire were (unsurprisingly) gone.
11. Tried a few adb commands that I found in another thread but didn’t seem to have any effect.
Out of ideas – can anyone help?! Will try old SD card tonight and see what happens, but I don’t think there is a problem with the new card since I managed to successfully mount it through clockwork. I’m also wondering why the apps were moved to the FAT32 partition instead of Ext3? I thought that’s what the Ext3 partition was for?
Cheers
The FAT32 partition must be the first partition on your SD card, and it seems from what you've said that you created the EXT partition first.

no the the FAT32 was first then the Ext3
OK fixed. Managed to mount the SD card on the PC via clockworkmod, deleted all partitions and rebooted phone. Phone detected SD card and asked me to format it. Did that and then added a ext partition using gParted.

Hi, i am having some, more like alot, of trouble with my SD card.
The issue is that whenever i go into gallery 3D, it loads up everything just fine but after i close it and reopen it it says that SD card is not mounted or present. I have to go to settings and unmount and mount it back for it to work and it works once and than the next time it does not. This happens with almost all apps..
Please help Thank you!
All I had to do was to format my SD card and then repartition it to fix the problem
Hi guys...I've been flashing the heck out of my N2 and all of a sudden, SD card can't be mounted in CWM anymore. It's still working when the phone is boot up though. I tried to format it in System Setting and still the card can't be seen in CWM. Tried to format the card in CWM and it just shows "formatting SD card" and stays there all night long. It's top of the line Lexax 64 GB card.
P.S. My other SD card still working fine.
Google & Got it.
