I have an LG H815 and a SD Kingston SDCA3 64GB UHS-I U3 formatted ExFat and used as external sd card (the normal way). Everything worked perfectly until I updated some month ago the kernel (Imperium Kernel for stock rom). After the update the phone shows me a message "SD card damaged, Tap to repair" and the only thing that I can do is to tap on the message and reinitialize the card. But doing it doesn't fix the problem. Also formatting the card with computer doesn't fix it.
The only thing I could do was to revert back to previous kernel.
Then I updated the ROM (from Genisys rom to the new Imperium 2.0 Rom) that comes already with the new version of the Imperium kernel that was giveing SD problem to me. But All worked great and I haven't any SD error!!!
Now that a new Imperium Kernel (version 3.1) was released I have installed it, wiped dalvick/cache and the SD error is come back.
So I tried another kernel like SimpleGX but I get the same error.
Reverting back to previous 3.0 version fix the issue.
Any ideas?
What I tried so far:
1- tap on the error message and format the card. The error appears again. No way.
2- format the card in ExFAT with a computer. No way.
3- delete with a computer any partition and let the phone format the card: it formats the card, but as soon as it finishes, the error message appears. So, no way.
4- delete every partition with a pc and create a little 4GB partition in FAT. The card works in the phone!!! But it has only 4gb... No way.
5- delete every partition with a pc and create a Ext4 partition, but the phone and my pc then can read it only with some tweak. No way.
6- format the card in FAT32, the phone can read the card, but I can't create file larger than 4GB due to FAT32 limit.
Please try fsck.exfat on the sdcard when this failure happens.
If you're familiar with adb use it or otherwise install a terminal app instead.
If you need instructions on how-to use fsck.exfat let me know.
Hi, I use sd card as external storage and it is formatted ExFat
Please see my updated answer above
Hello,
I got the same issue with H815...
Please let me know how to use fsck.exfat on the sd card (prefereably with adb)
I use my Sd card as external storage, and got the issue when flashing Simple gx kernel...
Thanks !

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.
Regards,
Dave
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.
SD Card Cant be Detected on Desire(Solved)
Hiii... guys.. even i went through the same problem.. and tried formatting using Linux,Windows.. but nothing happpnd... as a final trial i tried it to factory reset(i.e., SD CARD).. by using hp usb disk storage format tool ...... and it was successful...
As for now just google the Software
Good LUCK!
For some reason my ext4 formatted 32GB MicroSD card is not being recognized from my file manager. However, when I boot up in TWRP recovery, I can see the SD card and its contents.
This morning was the last time I was able to browse my files in the external SD partition. I downloaded Spotify, downloaded some songs for offline listening and that is when I received an error message that I was out of disk space. When I checked my internal storage, I still have 4GB left but the external SDcard is nowhere to be found.
Is there an android utility I can use to restore my access to the SDcard paritition?
You need to format it to fat32, I had to do the same once rooted. You will need a utility on a pc to format it. Eric

Confirm your kernel is supporting Ext4 , some custom kernel doesn't.
Hi,
I'm using ROM CM 10.1 nightly 2013-05-01. I have downgraded to CM 10.1 2013-04-01 nightly and even formatted the internal storage then flashed back to stock ROM.
Same thing. The stock Samsung ROM says I have a blank external SD card. CM 10.1 ROM says there is no external SD card.
However, when I boot to TWRP (2.5 version) recovery, I can see the external SDCard just fine.
I would love to go back to FAT32, but need the ex4 because I have a Linux installation that requires at least 6GB partition to work.
My setup with ext4 has been working for about a month, up until yesterday. I have no idea why this happened all of a sudden.
The external ext4 formatted SD card did pop back briefly right after reinstallation of CM 10.1. I was even able to browse the files with no lag or errors. Few minutes however, it disappeared again. Frustrating.
Is there an android utility I can use? I know CM 10.1 doesn't recognize exfat.

By the way, I just inserted in another ext4 formatted SD Card. This one is recognized immediately and I can access my files.
So I am thinking that the other SDcard not being recognized by the android OS may have developed a read issue. Is there a way to recover without having to reformat the card?
The non working sdcard is displaying this message when accessed by a file manager: "directory read banned".
Is there a way to unban it?
The phone can read other ext4 formatted cards.
Okay. I inserted the sdcard in my linux laptop. Apparently for some reason, it is now being mounted FAT32 formatted drive. I guess that explains the read banned message in android because of the presence of a file larger than 4GB.
Is there a way to repair this painlessly?

No,your phone is not dead.It's a software issue
Did you tried mount in recovery?
Do u have a previous backup of system partition?
When I try mount external sd, there was error becouse "no card"
On 108 and 157 same problem and thats was not update, i install clear ROM and after do backup (108 ROM) from September (then I use 16GB ADATA card) still have the same problem
Did you format the card on phone? Don't just try to use computer to format it. I've tried a similar case but then after used the format tool on phone to format the card and the problem solved. If it doesn't work too, try to use other sd card.
You should format to FAT32!
But on my PC a can do this only exFAT or NTFS, when i format to FAT32 by recovery after put card to PC it want to format card

Hi everyone!
Today I upgraded from CM 12.1. something to CM 13 and got a kinda weird bug, where google play services kept crashing, so i reflashed the gapps, and got another bug where the starting presentation program (don't remeber the exact name of the program, "guided assistance" or something, the one you get at the beggining explaining how to set up your device) kept crashing, making it impossible for me to continue using the device. Decided to restore factory settings (clicking between a crash and another xD) and everything works fine, except the fact that I can't use my sd card any suggestions? Any other info needed?
Is there a marshmallow rom with a working sd card?
P.s. I just read that is a issue that the developers are aware of, but i can't find anyone complaining about this error (the sd card not working) in the xda CM13 thread
Thanks to all!
MicroSD card support in CM13 ROMs is borked - the only thing you can do is wait it out!

Im on the latest CM nightly and I have no issue with my 64GB sd card. I used the built in format option and I seem to be fine

Does the current CM nightly that you're using support exFAT out of the box? The reason for me asking this is because on the 20151207 nightly, it was still complaining that the 'SD card is corrupted'.
FAT32 support for SD cards is fine on portable storage mode but when formatted as 'internal', people are still reporting problems as well.
I got that message as well but when I formatted I got my full sd card

If that is the case, then what file system is your microSD card using currently?
From what I can tell exFAT. My transfer speed was much faster then when I had to use FAT32. Is there an app that can tell me what format my SD card is?

Soorry if this is a stupid question, but what is the built-in format? Can I use an SDXC card from another Android device (Samsung Tab S) or this a special format option found only in CM-13/Marshmallow devices?

When you put a SD card in the phone on 6.0 it will ask if you want to format it. With 6.0 you can use it as portable storage or internal memory for more room for apps and such. I use portable storage but as of the last nightly I didnt have to format my SD card. CM fixed exFAT support in their latest builds.

Hey can you tell me your SD model? And filesystem? Just plug in your pc and see in the properties settings. Can you tell me your CM build?
Little update, I flashed Cloudy 2.5 and Gabriel kernel, thanks all
I figured out the SD card problem , i couldn't fix it for nothing until i did this.
FOR ANYBODY THAT GETS STUCK AT 20% or any other sd card problem with 6.0 roms
1. Backup all files on SD card (This will delete everything on your sdcard)
2. Install minitool partition wizard on your computer
3. Inset Sd card into PC with and adapter and/or card reader (NOT WITH PHONE)
4. Remove all partitions from SD card with partition wizard (Do not reformat) Be careful to only select the SD card
5. Place SD card into phone
6. Let the phone detect SD card and try to reformat
7. chose either Internal or Portable Storage
8. Enjoy because it works perfectly for me now.
btw. im running a LG G3 D850 ATT
there was a fstab issue with external sdcards, the fix has been merge already though.

unfortunatelly this metod does not solve this problem on marshmallow stock
Hello. I've bought a 64gb sandisk micro sd card for my M9.
In twrp the sd card 8s working perfect. I've Flash the Rom files from sd card. But when i'm boot uo android System (also i did completly clean install the Roms /wipe system+data+Cache etc) android said the sd card is damaged i must format it... But after he Shows that it damages 2 seconds later the message goes away and Show again. When i tap it nothing happens.
I've check the sd card via windows chkdsk /f but all is fine without errors
I've unlockd the BOOTLOADER and flashed crdroid / Viper / ICE. All Roms had the same issue.
Any idea? I've tryd 3 roms on all roms the same issue.... On twrp the sd card works great -. -
What format is the sdcard partition?. Use fat32 but you must format them on a pc with third party software as Windows partitioning tool is 'broken'.
I have a SanDisk 128gb so I know yours should work.
