After i flashed my GT-I9000(without external sdcard), it reboot into recovery, and display "can't mount /sdcard" in red. And if i insert an external sdcard, and reboot, it can boot normally, but when i checked in menu -> setting -> sd card and phone storage, the "sd card" and "usb storage" are unavailable, only "system storage" is 1.83G. i tried several sd cards, no matter 2G, 4G, the same result. And if i plug the sd card to pc, 2GB of the card is disappeared. So, i think maybe there are some errors for my internal sdcard, and the system used 2G from external sd card. Can anyone help me to save my internal sd card back? Thanks.

How does one wipe out the internal SD card? Odin 1 click does not do it.. Going into privacy/factory rest does not do it either.
Last night I did a 1 click and factory reset and when I attached the phone to my pc and mounted the internal SD, there were still lots of directories with data in them from past application installs.
Thanks
Go to settings, then the SD card and phone storage menu. Find the internal SD card section, select unmount SD card, then format SD card. Once its done it auto mounts back to the phone again.

I'm having issues getting my SD card to work now after S-OFF. When I boot my phone up, I get a notification saying "Blank SD card, SD card is blank or has unsupported file system" When I touch the notification, it says
"Format SD card
Are you sure you want to format the SD card? All data on your card will be lost"
When I select format, it just closes. What do I do? I have tried rebooting but that didn't help.

Just do the format on your computer instead.
My phone keeps saying that the sd card is safe to remove and i have no access to any files or anything. When formatting in CWM it says no sd card detected and when i try to mount USB storage it just loads endlessly. Help please?
Actually I fixed it. Anyone with same problem, format your SD from the phone's storage settings (not CWM).

Hi,
I am having an issue that I'd hope you would be able to help me with. I flashed CyanogenMod10, and everything was doing fine, smooth performance, reboots with no problems, but then suddenly one day it went bricked. I restored through the SmartFlashTool Method, and got back to the stock Rom with everything working except for the SD card.
I have tried out various stock ROMs and none seemed to recognize the SD card, outputting a message of "SD card removed. Please insert a new one."; getting on to ADB when trying to mount the SDcard I get this message "mounting /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 on /sdcard failed: No such file or directory", and while trying to mount the SD card in CWM Recovery, it tells me "E: Can't mount sdcard", and when I try to mount USB storage through CWM, I get "E:Unable to write to ums lunfile(no such file or directory)", and when trying to mount /sdcard on CWM I get a "Error mounting /sdcard" message... I hope people at XDA would be able to help me since I have been lurking through the forums and internet without any good answer. :highfive:
I was able to mount the SD card through ClockWorkMod Recovery v5.0.2.6, but again, barely at random times when it works, and after installing a ROM those times, the phone usually works for one hour or two and then gets bricked again. I can not have access to another CWM version since I need an SD card to flash it. To install CWM I am using a patched .bin and .fls files in the SmartFlashTool method of unbricking. When the SD card gets recognized, I can even reboot the phone and still get the SD card to be recognized. The SD card problems don't happen until the random bricks after flashing a ROM. :fingers-crossed:
I have also tried using several functioning SD cards of different capacities formatted in NTFS, FAT32 and exFAT with no luck. I am also not willing to go back to stock since it is buggy and lags a lot compared to CM7, CM10 and every other custom rom I have tried. :crying:
Thank you for any help you could provide me, or if you have any answer for this problem,

Firstly when you get access to sd card with cwm or anything get your files backup to your pc.Than try format your sdcard in settings menu on your phone.Did you tried format your sdcard in settings menu?

Yes I did try that last time but I only seem to get a "Can't mount sdcard" error. I haven't been able to get the phone to recognize any SD card on v10a, v20a, nor v20b stock roms.
CWM Recovery won't read my SD card. I've wiped factory data, but can't install the new ROM because it won't read the card. The files are zipped, the SD card is in the slot, and the files are on the EXTERNAL card, not internal. Any work arounds? I need help, since I'm now out a phone until this is resolved.

What is "apply sdcard:update.zip"? Do I need to run this first?
Courtney
When to "- mounts and storage", clicked on "mount /sd-ext." I got an "Error mounting SDEXT:!

What rom are you on now? Does the version of cwm your using have the option to install zip from ext sd? If not I don't think you can. Put the zip on the internal sd by plugging into a pc that has the captivate drivers installed and from recovery go to "mounts and storage" and mount usb. that should allow you move the zip onto the internal sd.
You don't need to use update zip.....you will always get that error trying to mount ext sd from mounts and storage. I always have anyway, not an issue.
Edit: just tried and I can mount ext sd, but I remember I couldn't in the past, so knowing your rom/kernel would help. There are multiple threads on how to flash roms and I'm betting one of those, especially one for the rom/kernel you have, and want to flash, could explain in better detail than I can how to successfully flash.

Wiping and factory reset shouldn't mean your phone is dead. You should be able to boot the phone into normal operation, then copy the zip from your external storage to internal, if mounting in recovery is a problem.
Did you uninstall ROM manager as I suggested in your other thread? It just doesn't work well on Captivate and you can see threads here where people get into trouble with it.
If you are stuck with CWM recovery and cannot boot normally - then read on
It's not SD-ext. Which mounts are listed in the CWM mount menu on yours?
Depending on where you are in the upgrade process, it might differ.
What version of CWM recovery are you running - it is on the first screen you see.
You may see USB storage, which refers to your internal 'SD Card' and you may also see emmc which may refer to your external SD card, the one in the slot on the back, above the battery.

Here's the update:
I used the USB connection this morning, and I was able to complete the flash process. Everything went well, other than the phone will not recognize my SIM car. It also reboots every 5 minutes, so I guess I have a few bugs to work out. I'll start searching these issues.
