[Q] Need help with my SD CARD

After I partition my SD Card, I been trying to transfer (drag & drop)files to the card and some how it seems not to be writing the files, I even try deleting files and as I open the card with Root Explorer the files are still there like nothing have ever happens. whats the issue, please any help would be appreciated. What I need to do.
Do you have access to a card reader? It is likely that you need to format the card, even repartition it.

Damaged SD Card

I managed to get CyanogenMod 7 RC2 up and running. I noticed that I had a lot of junk on my SD card so I thought that I could back it up and then wipe it because most/all of the useful stuff was on the internal memory of the DHD. But, for some reason, my phone is telling me that my SD card is damaged.
I don't think that there is anything wrong with the SD card because I just did a copy/paste thing to back it up. Also, I've put in another SD card and it also says that it's damaged. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Run fix_permissions and reboot

Thanks for the reply, but I don't think I can do that. I can't put that on my SD card because there if I try to connect it with the computer, I can't mount the SD card or turn on the usb sharing thing. I'll be able to reformat the SD card soon because I'm borrowing a friend's micro sd card to sd card converter.
I tried Fix Permissions by going into recovery and advanced options, but that didn't work =/
Also, I remember now that I uninstalled "Goldcard Helper" because it said it was downloaded to my SD card so I thought that I could uninstall it and be able to clean up my SD card completely. Maybe that had some effect on this?
Got my friend's converter so now I can plug the micro SD directly into my computer. Oddly enough, it said I had to format it before I could use it which is essentially what my phone was telling me to do too.
I'll wipe it then see if it works
Perfect! I think it is working completely now! One last question of what I should do now that it's working. Can I plug it in, restore a few pictures I had, and just let Android take over from there? It's completely blank on the SD card so will Android know what to do with it?

SD Card Help

I'm in a world of hurt and hoping someone has a solution for me!
I took my SD Card out of my phone & plugged it into my laptop. I then took all the files from my SD card and dragged them into a folder. Next I deleted those files from the SD card so I could use it for another purpose.
After I finished this process I got rid of what I had put on the SD card for the other purpose & dragged all the Android files from that temp folder back to my SD card.
Now my phone won't recognize my SD card. The card will not mount and when I boot my phone I get a message that says "blank SD card". When I click on that message it prompts me to reformat my SD card and warns me that everything on it will be lost.
So what I'm wondering is: can I reformat the card, plug it back into my laptop, drag the files back to the SD card and all will be well?
Or is there something else I need to do?
Or am I screwed?
I even tried a CWM restore...but the restore is on the SD card so that obviously isn't an option.
At any rate, I really need some help here and I'm hoping someone can provide some guidance and direction for me.
Thanks!

Yes, format the card inside the phone then put everything back on it.

Worked great!

[Q] Help can't access in any way the internal SD card

hi there I'm having this big issue
I made some mistakes, the one that I think originated all my problem is that I've formatted the external SDcard using windows and the phone connected to the pc, because after that the phone had many problems
on the phone I have CWM 6
the big one is that I'm not able to access the internal SD card in any way, When i do factory reset with CWM it says that it can't mount the internal SD card, while when I try to install custom roms they work but they can not do things such as taking pictures with camera because it says that I have to insert the SD card
maybe that I have to format it but i don't know how
any help appreciated
thanks
Maybe that I have to re-write the partition table that went corrupted.
Does anyone have the PIT file of the phone?
Thanks

SD card possibly corrupted. How else can I check?

Trying to save some sentimental photos and videos, so formatting isn't an option.
I'm wondering what other methods I can try to mount an SD card and copy the media files. I don't have a Note right now, but the card was last used on a T889 running DittoNote3.
The card hasn't worked since the phone, and I haven't had an opportunity to test it on another T889. I don't know if it's as simple as a permissions issue from using a custom ROM, or if something worse has happened.
Whenever I put the card into a full-size SD adapter and insert it in a PC reader slot or card adapter, the PC prompts to format it.
Trying to mount it on other Android phones brings up a "file system not recognized" message.
Is there another way to mount the card and retrieve the files? Anyone else with this?
Thanks, all!
put it in an adapter and slot into other pc with other OS versions...not all will prompt to delete i believe. and then chkdsc for the drive....
