Hi, I am new to XDA so I have to report a bug (if it is) here for Phoenix rom v16.
I flashed this rom according to original thread carefully. Everything works well so far but only the extSD card.
My phone is Galaxy note2 N7100
I flashed Phoenix rom from 4.1.3 (I wiped mannually several times using Philz 15)
I have a 64gb class 10 sdcard(fat32) inserted which worked fine under old systems
When I first get into the new Phoenix rom, I noticed in setting-storage, I can see a external card mounted, but the total space is not right (around 10gb). And I used ES file explorer, trying to check the content there, but I cannot see nor write anything. I went back to setting-storage and unmount SD card, and then mount again. The space became right. And I can access to the card using ES file explorer also. It looked good!
However, after I flash the update and reboot the system, the problem comes back. I can see the card under setting-storage but with wrong size, and I cannot read or write again. After I physically pull out the card and then put it back in, and mount it again, it works.
I tried to reboot the system again, and problem came back after rebooting.
I don't know why the system cannot recognize the external sd card correctly after reboot by itself, only after you remount the card, you can use it normally. This really bothers me and I don't know how to solve this problem.

Any thoughts will be appreciated!

Are you sure you didn't tick option/mod to use external sdcard as internal in aroma installer? This switches the cards and sometimes it states sdcard size incorrectly (depends what mod you're using). With some kernels this mod might not work and weird stuff can happen. If you didn't touch this option then I don't know what could it be.

OK, this could be the reason, I didn't notice this option during installation. I noticed in the orginal thread of the 4.3 phoenix rom that the internal card would be external and external would be internal. I didn't know that I have to choose this. I will look into it again.
By the way, if this happened, that means I will have a note2 with 64gb internal space? That is awesome!
OK- I am not new here.... been away for awhile but. I recently rooted both of my lg optimus g pro e980 from ATT. I followed the directions on a few threads regarding this procedure. I installed twrp 2.6.3.0 and ran the updates that I could. I installed freegee pro as well. After I did this I also installed CWM recovery and made sure I updated it as well. I made a backup as I always have before I factory reset and I saved it to my external sd card.
I downloaded several roms to flash and gapps and a few other things i found that I liked and saved these to my ext sd card. I used astro file manager and root explorer to verify that the files were on the external sd card.
After the backup using cmw recovery I went into twrp. I did a factory reset per the instructions and after the reset I can't see my external SD card. I have tried EVERYTHING. I dug into every folder I could. I tried rebooting and seeing if I can see the external card from my pc. I cannot see it anywhere.
Can someone PLEASE help me out.

I don't understand why you do your backups with CWM, and then you go into TWRP, what recovery do you have currently installed? You can only have one.

I have never used twrp until this phone. I have been out of the loop for about 14 months... changed jobs and started my own company. been too busy. I followed instructions... and it talks about them BOTH being available for use.
The bottom line is I still dont see how the external SD card is not being seen... my backup and my roms are on the external... makes no sense. I can pull the card out and see the roms on my other lg optimus g pro just fine.

I have the same problem.
I used FReeGee to unlock my bootloader and flashed cwm to have my files visible. But still it messes up with my internal SD that it is always set to SDCARD/0. It is so useless and wastes more memories.
IS there something what we need to avoid or fix that issue with the SD`?

Your problem is not related to CWM or FreeGee, the reason why you see SDcard/0 after you flash cm 10.2 or later is because with Jelly Bean 4.2 Android implemented the multi user feature that wasn't present in JB 4.1 that came with the G pro. That is easily solved, just do a search for Aroma File Manager and you can move your files from your SD to the folder /0 and recover your SD card lost space.

If I were you, I would flash the stock .tot file from att using LGflash tools and start over, when using FreeGee you don't have to install both recoveries, just choose one, I use CWM, there is only one recovery partition therefore only one recovery can be installed.

I can see this is dated, but maybe this is of some help. Twrp will not recognize any sd card if is exFAT. It has to be FAT32 if I'm not mistaken. It may just be FAT, but I'm pretty sure it's FAT32.
I have been having this issue, and did a good bit of research. I'm gonna reformat my memory card at some point to check, but it will take a while for me to get my files moved around.
Just thought I'd give you the heads up.

As far as TWRP goes, Madmack's Hacked TWRP is the only one that I've gotten to read my external sd. Both ExFAT and FAT32.

This is a godsend. I was having issues with TWRP recognizing my SDCard and my Windows machine didn't have a problem. I formatted as a FAT32 and worked like a champ. I'm now able to backup my personal data before moving on the better ROMs... Thanks!
Hello,
I just upgraded my gpe g pad to lollipop and am having SD card problems. My 64gb card worked perfectly with kk with the SD fix. In lollipop under settings, my card is listed correctly but when using solid Explorer or root explorer, the card is not listed when the doc viewer is displayed to give the program permission. I tried with an old 16mb card and that is listed. Was hoping lollipop fixed SD issues but doesn't seem like it. Does anyone have a solution or the same problem? I tried it with two 64gb cards both formatted exfat.

Try fat32, and the permissions trick.

Thanks. It works with fat32. Shame exfat isn't supported on larger sized cards
Actually, I think the problem is because you upgraded the bootloader. Once you update the bootloader, the sdcard needs to be reformatted. Exfat might even actually still work too if the sdcard just reformatted again. I haven't tried to reformat using exfat after updating the bootloader.

Why would you need to reformat with a different boot loader?
Anyway, I had no problems switching back and forth from KitKat to lollipop using fat32. Exfat is poorly supported. Like ntfs, there are constraints that make it more of an issue than its worth.
Why ext2 isn't supported out of the box is beyond me.
I think the bootloader affects how the files are written to the partitions, including the sdcard. If you think about when everyone said the problems started, it was when 4.4.2 was released.
I tried an experiment. I had cm11 with 20B bootloader installed. It was fine for a week. I then only updated my bootloader to 20D and within a day it started to randomly reboot.
I then kept the 20D firmware and reinstalled cm11 and reformatted my sdcard. After that, the device was fine again. But, the problem with rebooting still happened even after reinstalling cm11 until I reformatted the sdcard while using the new bootloader.
When we update the bootloader, we directly reboot into the recovery to reinstall the operating system. This formats everything except the sdcard. This is why the problems are happening with the sdcard, because it's the only thing not being formatted over.

Wild. You wouldn't think it would matter. You could test this by taking out the sdcard before upgrading if it is a read problem with the card. I'm more inclined to think it's a problem with the initial read by cyanogenmod on a card with used space. Does this happen on stock as well?
The OP has the 510 by the way. But this is very interesting.
Yes, this happens with all ROMs AFAIK. The ROM and kernel made no difference.
Edit: even updating the ROM to lollipop from KitKat did not fix the crashing. Only after reformatting the sdcard and copying the data back onto the sdcard stopped the crashing.

Does it happen when formatted fat32?
I could see only a few reasons that are even possible. One being that when you replace the boot loader it wipes the internal sdcard, and the ext sdcard but because our ext sdcard is separate from the device, and not just a separate partition, it can't remove the files and marks it as defective.
If you mount it manually using a terminal does it work?
Mount /storage/sdcard1 (as root)
And third, that it is a glitch in exfat, where something isn't getting passed correctly.
Sounds more like a bug than a security feature, but could also be that to keep something malicious from running.
Yes, the problem still happens when the sdcard is formatted as fat32. Simply changing the bootloader will still trigger the problem.
For testing purposes, I made separate installers for 20B and 20D bootloaders that don't touch any other partitions. After I install a new bootloader, I reboot into the recovery again to load the new firmware and then install my ROM (which formats the system partition during normal upgrade procedure).
I know this should be directed to the twrp forums but I wanted to get feedback from owners of the sprint lg g3 preferably using the CM12.1 android version 5.1.
I have always had this issue where I am unable to flash roms on my external sd card via twrp. Everytime I try (just tried again tonight), after over and hour of restoring, it was only at 10%. When I flash the same rom on the internal sd (memory) it only takes about 10 minutes to accomplish the entire restore, its the same way for backups too. I don't understand why I am unable to do backups and restores from my external sd. It is very inconvienant to keep moving the backups from external to internal and vice versa. Plus, I can never put more than 1 backup on my internal because they take up so much space (roughly 8gb). It doesn't matter what backup rom I flash it does the same thing. Has anyone else been able to flash roms from their external sd card and if so, what did you have to do to get it to work? I have sent my concerns to the twrp team with no replies back. I am just curious if others are having the same problem or if their has been a fix for this.
I am currently on version 2.8.5 of twrp.
Does anyone have any suggestions or feedback on this issue? Thanks
Hey mate,
You could try installing the TWRP version for the G3 from their app, rather than just the generic version for any phone. If that doesn't work, then it sounds like your SD Card could be corrupted. I backup my whole phone to my external SD Card before I flash any updates or anything else, and can install the ROM updates from my SD Card with no problems whatsoever.
All I can really think of is either a new SD Card, or the official TWRP for the G3 from their app.

Thanks for the response. Do you have a G3 also? I have installed the official bumped version of twrp for my sprint phone and am still having issues. Just by curiousity, when you are in twrp, are you able to backup and restore directly to/from the sd card. I do not have any issues with my card other than this, I can transfer and move files, etc. I have noticed though on my 64 gb scandisk card that when it first boots up, it will say not able to retrieve location. I put a different card in the phone and that message stopped which makes me believe it has something to do with the card. That location message just started about a month or two ago.

It turns out that it was something to do with the external SD card. I replaced it with a brand new card and i am able to backup and restore to/from the external card with twrp.

Hi people. I had installed this ROM (Marshmallow 6.0) in my LG G3 D858HK dual sim. The link to the ROM is http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/lg-g3-d856-7-8-android-marshmallow-t3294053
But after installing the same my MicroSD card says its corrupted and asks to format it. I have formatted it several times and also by PC with a card reader. But still the issue persists. I don't get the option to set up my card as either INTERNAL or PORTABLE storage as it should be in Marshmallow ROMS. It directly starts to format as Portable storage and starts at 20% and shows successfully formatted. But still it shows that the card is corrupted. My card is working fine. I checked it. Please help.
I have the same problem and not yet identified the reason for this. Have you tried other ROMs? For me it is also happening on CM 13 and CandySix.
Answer.
Hope that helps, it worked for me with the same problem and works always....

I have the same issue with a Samsung 64GB microSD in a LG G3 d851 (T-Mobile USA). The card works fine in Windows and Android Lollipop. However I am testing several Marshmallow ROMs and so far I got this corrupted message in LightDark, Turbo and DU ROMs. However it works fine in Tesla-M. All of them are AOSP Android M ROMs. It seems that there is a problem somewhere but at least Tesla-M tells us that it can be fixed.
Fat32 lads, instead of exFAT format to fat32. The root in MM causes exFAT cards not to be read and stupidly the phone formats it to exFAT. Also the SIM contacts won't appear, instead you have to download an app to copy them from sim to phone.
I'm experiencing something similar.
I am on fulmics 4.2 on a d855. I had no problems for some weeks, than the phone started mounting and unmounting my sdcard, I tried all the suggestions I read online. Like slow formatting (tried all the types of partition), also I tried with the phone format. My best result was the read of the sdcard for just some hours, but then it started auto-expelling it.
I obviously tried with more sdcards and it's not a problem with them. Any suggestions? It's a software problem or an internal hardware problem?
I tried change the kernel a xceed and the sd card is recognized but not funcionally complete,(the radio fm do not work with xceed)

Hi all,
I found out that the same SD card I have since I bought the S5, May 2014, just got corrupted.
It won’t format in the phone, I use the AParted, ES File Explorer, FX Explorer and it never work.
I can still use it in a camera, PC, another Phone and it worked fine!
I put the card back in my PC, reformat in Fat32, ext4, NTFS and each time never worked in the S5.
I did the same thing with a bran new one too, same results.
It starts after updating SuperSU 2.61 to 2.71, in Marshmallow.
Few days’ work fine and then, corrupted.
I tried many options people have here and still the same result, corrupted.
I fix it (I hope) with doing a full factory reset in Marshmallow first.
Got to TWRP and did a full Wipe, Format Data and Adv. Wipe; select everything.
Yes, that clean a lot.
Use Odin and re-flash Marshmallow.
Everything is fine now, but it is only a few days that I did this, so it might still happen.
Could it be the version of SUperSU I took that has something? Or It is actually Marshmallow 6.0.1 with SuperSU ?
We might never know as the version change often.
Hope that will help someone.

Hi all,
Here it is again, my SD card is corrupted again by the OS… but I can access the card by my PC or another phone!
So it seams to be a combination of OS 6.0.1 (Canadian Rogers), how it is rooted (Twrp) and the SuperSU free v2.76.
I’ll wipe the phone again and re-install the original Os from the carrier, no Root & no SuperSU.
I’ll wait for a week and see.
Keep you posted.
Have a great one!

Hi All,
I rooted by phone this week also using the KingRoot method and also had the same issue. The below steps resolved it for myself and hopefully for you.
Since this is my first post I can't paste the URL to the site as the forum won't let me, so you'll have to google it, sorry about that.
Google - 32fat guiformat and look for the site 'GUI Format - Ridgecrop Consultants Ltd'
Download the program by clicking on the picture.
Run the program and select the drive letter of your memory card. Set the Allocation unit size to 32768 and untick Quick Format the press Start.
The format process takes maybe 45mins. But afterwards you'll have a full 64GB card formatted as FAT32 and will work in your phone again. Hope this helps you...
Enjoy your day.

If you can verify that more than one card works in a computer but not on the phone, and that formatting the card in the phone goes to 20 % very quickly, while afterwards going to 100 % but still tells you it´s corrupted, then indeed it´s simply the installation of Marshmellow that suddenly no longer wants to work with the file system of the card.
For me, the 32fat guiformat program told me that card was locked by another application, so I did it manually:
In windows elevated command prompt - after backing up eventual data on the card:
diskpart
list disk
(now find out which one is your sdcard, let´s call it x)
select disk x
clean
create partition primary
select partition 1
format fs=fat32
When the format is finished, if the cards size is beyond 32 GB, you´ll get a message about that the disk is too big.
At this point I managed though to make a quick format in the before mentioned FAT32 GUI Format program, and bingo - the card is recognized in the phone again.
No need for the diskpart stuff of course, if you already had success with the GUI thingy, just telling in case anyone experiences the same problems as me.
It may be that there´s a way to tell diskpart to use a different cluster size to avoid the error at the end, and also there may be a trick to make the card available to fat32gui. without first going through the diskpart step In my case though, I had the error on two different computers, on which none of them were accessing the card from any applications, disk management, win explorer etc.
Finally I´d like to add that this is not a general error for all Marshmallow phones: My huawei p8 worked fine with the card, also on Marshmallow, before I had to reformat it to fat32.
It´s a pretty sucky bug: Never mind the hassle of formatting the card, as long it works. What bothers me is the 4 GB limit of files in fat32. It´s easy to have a movie nowadays which is larger than that.
PS: Some people recommend using an app called aparted to format the card on the phone, which now has another name. I tried that, but it kept on closing itself, so perhaps it´s not compatible with Marshmallow or the same plus LG G3.

Google - 32fat guiformat and look for the site 'GUI Format - Ridgecrop Consultants Ltd'
Download the program by clicking on the picture.
Run the program and select the drive letter of your memory card. Set the Allocation unit size to 32768 and untick Quick Format the press Start.
The format process takes maybe 45mins. But afterwards you'll have a full 64GB card formatted as FAT32 and will work in your phone again. Hope this helps you...
Enjoy your day.

Hi people. I had installed this ROM (Marshmallow 6.0) in my LG G3 D858HK dual sim. The link to the ROM is http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/lg-g3-d856-7-8-android-marshmallow-t3294053
But after installing the same my MicroSD card says its corrupted and asks to format it. I have formatted it several times and also by PC with a card reader. But still the issue persists. I don't get the option to set up my card as either INTERNAL or PORTABLE storage as it should be in Marshmallow ROMS. It directly starts to format as Portable storage and starts at 20% and shows successfully formatted. But still it shows that the card is corrupted. My card is working fine. I checked it. Please help.

same problem i tried everything aparted, wiping partition from twrp, cmd promt.
maybe busybox
I know this is an old thread but I've recently had this same situation but I found it was a result of installing busybox with Busybox Pro from Stericson. I used the "Smart Install" feature and selected to "Replace all symlinks" and "Clean Mode".
Basically, I believe by doing clean mode and replacing all symlinks, I had replaced needed System applets which somehow had hindered the OS from being able to correctly mount any External SD Card.
After using TWRP to factory reset (Wipe System, Data, Dalvik, Cache, Internal Storage) I Odin Flashed the latest stock firmware and then proceeded to root, etc. BTW, My phone is a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910T on Net10 prepaid network.
Worked for me!!

Hi all,
Here it is again, my SD card is corrupted again by the OS… but I can access the card by my PC or another phone!
So it seams to be a combination of OS 6.0.1 (Canadian Rogers), how it is rooted (Twrp) and the SuperSU free v2.76.
I’ll wipe the phone again and re-install the original Os from the carrier, no Root & no SuperSU.
I’ll wait for a week and see.
Keep you posted.
Have a great one!

Did you ever find out a resolution to this? I'm having the same problem -- card works in computer and other devices, but not tablet which was rooted (twrp) with supersu installed. In fact, no sdcard will work now in that tablet, formatted using gui formatter mentioned earlier or not.
