General :: How To Format SD Card For Android

Jan 2, 2014

I tried to format it on my laptop via adapter, by right clicking SD Card F: going to format, selecting FAT32, checking the quick format box, and pressing start but whenever I place it back in my phone, it won't mount. It says it's damaged. I had the same problem when I first purchased the sd card but found a link online that showed me how to format it a different way,in another location, which worked perfectly. I recently removed the sd card for something though and encountered this same problem but am unable to find that same link. It's driving me nuts! I had to import everything to my laptop to make sure I didn't lose it all.

I have a 2.08GB internal memory but now FREE SPACE is only 85mb now which used to be 400+mb. I dont install any app and i have deleted all the APPS and temp files from my internal sd.

General :: SD Card Won't Mount After Format?

Jan 31, 2012

I decided I wanted a fresh start on my phone so I backed up my pictures and formatted my SD card. I just used the default one in settings. After I did that, every time I press mount SD card, i get a notification that the SD card is safe to remove. I booted up in CWM and tried partitioning it and it says it worked, but I still can't mount and I get "Error mounting /sdcard!".

General :: SD Card - Unable To Format Or Delete?

Jan 25, 2014

I have an extremely weird SD Card behavior with my Note 2:

After deleting files and rebooting, the files reappear.

I can't format the SD Card using the Android OS - it goes black screen and requires me to pull out the battery in order to start the device.

I removed the SD Card and attached it to my laptop's SD Card slot and tried formatting using Windows 7- the format process completed after ~30-40 minutes, yet the SD Card appeared UNCHANGED!

I used multiple SD Card formatting tools, still no dice - they either complain about write protection, that they can't start, they start and stop halfway with an error, you name it.

It's like the SD Card has built in protection that keeps the files in it in stasis form, never ever witnessed such a behavior in any storage device. What gives?

General :: Apps Not Recognized After SD Card Repartition And Format

Apr 5, 2012

I followed the steps on Addictive Tips on how to properly add an EXT4 partition on my 8gb sd card.

Now I have 6.xGB FAT32 as the primary partition, and a 1GB EXT4 logical partition. But my Samsung Galaxy Ace (running on CyanogenMod-7.2.0-C1-cooper, official nightly build) doesn't recognize the sd card anymore.

So I gave up and reformatted it back to a single FAT32 partition, copied my backup back into the sd card, but now the apps don't get recognized.

Samsung Epic 4G :: SD Card Format Was Unrecognized

Oct 14, 2010

I just pulled my phone from my pocket and it was frozen so I pulled battery and restarted it. The SD card format was unrecognized. I stuck it in a card reader and it wouldn't show up on my pc. I stuck a different card in my phone and it is fine. I called Sprint and the card is not covered by warranty. The warranties are device specific and Samsung does not feel that they need to cover them. I was lucky that the Sprint store did replace my card with a Sandisk card. I have numerous Microsd cards. They all came with a lifetime warranty. Samsung fails on this note. I still love this phone.

Samsung Epic 4G :: Not Format 32GB SD / Card Damaged ?

Sep 5, 2010

I finally got around transferring my 32Gig card out of my Evo and into the Epic. After I put it in I decided to clean it and reformat it in the Epic. Epic starts the format then comes up with a message "card damaged cant format". I put the same card in the Evo and it formatted just fine and then worked in the Epic. Then I tried to format it again in the Epic and again I get the card damaged pop up. Again it reformatted just fine in the Evo. Any ideas anyone else get this message? Just to add I tried to format a smaller card in the Epic and it was able to format that fine. Once the 32gig card is formatted in the Evo it will work fine in the Epic.
