Either you have a bad SD card, which i've had in the past, or it's just a bug in the beta. Try a newer beta before posting it in the CM11 dev thread.

hey guys i have the custom rom paranoid android for my device but there seems to b a bug and i want to fix it but idk how some apps cant pick up my exsdcard for example the camera app saves pictures to internal and apollo and google play doesn't search my music and its bugging me there was an update in which i tought it will fix the problem but no its still there how can i fix this help me plzzzzzz. i have use media rescaner and all those apps one that worked for me was ics binder but my phone ran out of batery and when i rebooted the problem started happening again please help me.
I'm having the same problem as can't save camera photos to the external SD card. There is a setting in the camera app that says "store" not sure what it means but it doesn't seem to change anything.
One other thing I would like to confirm is under system settings is the "storage" setting in the prior ICS version you could format the external SD Card. Here format SD Card formats the internal SD Card. Can you format the external SD Card from settings? Not what I was expecting, guess that's why I backed everything up.
I'm running Paranoid 4.1.2 and it is fantastic and fast. I was on ICS previously and had these settings before.
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but either way Paranoid is awesome!
Thanks for your advice.
Save camera pics to external Sd card
I guess tagging onto 2 week old thread with no responses was not the best idea
Looks like saving camera pics to external sd card is not an option. I even downloaded
Camera from ver. 4.2, same thing. Only solution I can make work is use a different camera app
than google's.
Still not sure why 4.1.2 does not have an option to format the external sd card just the internal.
Still like Paranoid, seems very stable.
Hello,
Just flashed the AOKP Jelly Bean rom. Everything is looking good, I got all the google apps. But the phone can't seem to find the external sd card (I have all my music on it as well as SMS backups).
When I plug the phone into the computer I can see and browse through the external SD card.
How do I make it so the phone can see the external sd card? I have tried mounting it in clockwork storage/mounts and it didn't work. I will have to revert to stock rom, if this rom doesn't support externals, that's so important.
You may have to try another Rom and see if you get the same thing. I'm on aokp and everything is fine. I have music and downloads on the external sd. This phone supports the external sd but it also doesn't. It can read from it but it doesn't save to it unless you have a mod installed.

Format it in your pc then put it in your phone. My 64gb works great on aokp
I would never release a rom that doesn't support external sdcards. it where i keep everything including my music. it works just fine.

I had the same confusion when I first installed AOKP. I was upgrading from stock ROM, which was Gingerbread originally, I think. Anyway, I found that the SD card is now located at "/mnt/emmc", which is a link to "/storage/sdcard1", so my SD card was still accessible but just under a different directory.
Try pointing any apps you're using that can't 'see' the external SD card to use the new Favourite or Directory to the new mount point "/mnt/emmc" instead of "external_sd".

Hi all,
Yesterday installed cyanogenmod 9 on my phone and everythings works correctly except for a very import thing, my sd card.
My phone recognizes it and also tells me how much storage i have left. But when i want to use an application such as the camera it says there is no sd card. So i checked what could be the problem and the only thing i could find that my sd should be FAT32 and it is, so i dont know what the problem is.
Can someone please help me cause if dont have the sdcard function i will probably have to switch back to stock rom
what your CM9 version ? RC6 ?
I have same problem, i installed the eol version of CM9.
If i go to settings/memories the sd card looks mounted, and i can access it in explorer through /mnt/external_sd, but then i cant move apps in it, and camera says theres no sd card.
I tried to use an app to link the folders, but i only managed to see the music on sd card with apollo. The camera (thats what i care most) wont work, pls help us
If you do not have swapped your sdcards and in the camera app it´s set to store your pics on SDcard, then they will be storen on the "internal" SD. So either set it in the camera app to external sd or swap the sdcards. For moving apps or installing them on your SD it´s anyway better to swap.
Hello I just installed Android Revolution HD 9.1 ROM, and the default camera application is not working because my external SD card is not class 10. It shows me a message with the restriction.
I don't want to use external memory to save the camera photos!
I remove the external SD card, reboot the phone, but camera still doesn't work.
Appreciate your help, since I don't want to change again my ROM
same problem
I am having the same problem. Were you able to figure this out?

In the camera app, under Settings, can you change the save location under "Storage"?
Did you guys post this under ARHD thread? Maybe mike isn't aware of the issue and if it's ROM related you might get better help there.

I have a 14 of them in the root directory of my sd card, I am v12 global.
Looks like the files are from the Miui Gallery app, As you can see in the link below on an "redmi note 9 pro"
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-9-pro/help/miui-gallery-creating-weird-files-sd-t4142833
Same here, I installed gallery app from miui 12 but im on miui 11 and these files start showing up on my internal storage, i deleted it and no problem because shows 0kb

It happens to me also if I use external sd card to store camera pictures...if I switch to internal memory, it is not making these ghost files anymore.
Fyi: I just updated to miui 12, removed gallery app because I prefer Google photos and there are no ghost files on external sd card.
So it seems to be miui gallery related.
