Hi
When I had MIUI (any version) I was able to use my micro SD card, all was good, but when I installed any custom rom like Pixel Experience, HavocOS and others, the phone say "theres is a problem with the SD CARD, please format to use" ok, I saved all my files on my pc because with a card reader it works fine, I've put inside the card on my phone again, I select the option to format, and after that, it keeps asking to format and I can't use it ): help?
ive only had problems with sd cards on resurection remix. every other rom worked. iassume you have a sandisk. maybe download their software on their site and format it that way. no gurantees it might fix it though.
Thread moved to Q&A
I flash couple days ago Bootleggers Rom and didnt have problem with SD card ,but after installing custom Kernel, I was forced to format SD card and then my problems begin. after format SD card to be able to use it in ROM, I lost option to use it in TWRP, because ROM use one TWRP use another type of format for SD card.. so,be careful what you install and flash..

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone would be as kind to help me with a problem I am having with my phone or at least point me in the right direction. I currently have a rooted EVO 4G. Its one of the first generation EVO's and its been rooted from Android version 2.2. I have never had a problem with using any Roms before, but I recently lost my original SD card, (The card I initially used to root my phone) and for some reason unknown to me, the alternate card that I now use, does not allow me to install new Roms. In fact, every time I try to install a Rom with this alternate card, the instalation gets aborted, the exact quotes are:
E:can't open /sdcard/MIUI.us_supersonic_1.12.2_Eng_Deo_zipA_signed_naro k.zip(bad)
Installation aborted.
The thing is, when I had my original card (8GB), if I wanted to use my alternate card (32GB) I would flash a Rom using the original card, and after flashing, use the 32GB card for the storage space. So I am assuming this it is not really a phone problem, just maybe something that I need to do or download to my alternate SD card (32GB).
One more thing, I was recently able to install a HTC EVO Sense Rom using the alternate card (32GB) Unfortunately, I am not able to install any ASOP Roms on this card.
Thank You in advance.
Did you try formatting the sd card? Also, it's possible the card is just bad too.

When I first purchased the card, I initially partitioned the card using Rom Manger, but I don't think that I have specifically formatted the card. Is there a formatting instruction page that you can point me to, or do you have instructions of how I should go about formatting my SD Card?
You can either format the SD card while in recovery or when on windows. Just format it then throw roms back on the SD card then wipe wipe wipe and flash away.

Hi,
I'm currently using Task's AOKP Rom and after performing a TWRP nandroid backup to my external sd card.. My external sd card started having problems. When I rebooted back to AOKP it showed an sd card error in the notifications asking me to reformat.
I've used this 32gb sd card for 4 months, installing various AOSP and TW JB roms with no problems at all. Yes, I wipe and flash everything correctly. This seemed to just happen randomly. I plugged my phone into my computer and it only shows my internal sd card available. When I go to mnt/extsdcard in file explorer, it shows no files.
Does anyone know a way to get my ext sd card working again? I'd like to get access to my files.
Thanks,
Tom
Update: it must just be my ext sd card... I plugged it into an adapter and it's not reading on my computer. My 8 gb version works fine but my 32 doesn't read at all. Any suggestions or is my sd card fried?
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
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 !
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.
