[Help!] SD Card - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDAians..
So, basically, something is wrong with my SD Card after partitioning using Swapper..
Now, my phone doesn't even read my SD Card. You can't go through files, etc.
I know the problem is not the ROM nor the PHONE.. because my phone reads my brother's SD Card which is the same class, space & type..
I can't format because MiniPartition tool also doesn't recognize my SD Card.. Help?
My SD Card is a Class 2, 8GB, MicroSDHC.
Please help. I really need my SD Card to install new ROMS and MODS..

Have you tried CWM built in

It also doesn't read anything

Try it in a computer. That doesn't work, it's fried. I had that with a 16GB PNY card. My current Samsung works fine no matter what I do

The thing is, I don't have an adapter for the SD Card..

If it isn't working in cwm then you only have to find a adapter and partition again...
I got the same, after I deleted swap it solved

Mini tool partition is the best...
Use it and delete swap

hmm if you swaps, i recommend u use a class 6 or higher to lower risk

please use class 2 sd class

maybe you can use card reader to check it..is it still FAT format or not
then try to fix it or something else like repair your sdcard
and turn on your phone WITHOUT sdcard
last, turn it on again WITH sdcard

Galaxy s killed at least one if my Micro SDs

One month ago i bought on ebay a 32 gb Mirco Sd, i put it in my phone which told me to format it: i did it and than it stopped to be shown in both phone or computer.
Ok, i thought i had bought a fake and i started again to use my old 16 gb Micro SD i've had for one year.
This morning i switched on my phone phone and it told me that it had a problem with the Micro SD and i needed to format it; i did it and since than it happend the same happend with the one i thought was a fake (now i'm not so sure).
It stopped to work anywhere!
Do anybody have any ideas to solve this?
clean the contacts on the card and the phone. Make sure your computer's reader can handle that size of sdcard. the computer usually can, but the reader may have a problem. Verify that it is formatted as FAT.
I cleaned the contacts and now my phone sees the micro sd: it only says "empty sd stick or unsupported filesystem", but in the memory settings i can't mount it and if i try to format it nothing happens.
The pc still doesn't see the sd, i've even tried with 2 different readers

Do u remove sd crd often, if u do then pls go to settings-sdcarf and storage and unmount your sd card or it will get corrupted. Its an amdroid problem. The rest part where it doesnt work anymore is wierd.

I remove it sometimes, but not that often, however i can't do that, because so far it still can't be mounted nor formatted and also it can be seen by the computer
Nobody can help me?

I used to have this issue with my old sdcard. If you can get the computer to read it first try this :https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/. If that doesnt work try some software called partition magic and use it to format the card. This might not work for you but i was having the same issue as you and it did for me.

No probs, and the only way i could get the computer to read the sd card was using a card reader, multiple reboots, removing and re-inserting the sd card until it decided it wanted to be read....as you might imagine it took a while, good luck

SD Card Swap

So I was thinking of upgrading my SD card from 8GB to a 16GB card and I have a stupid question to ask -
If I copy the entire content of my current 8gb card onto the new 16gb one and plug it in, will everything work normally as before?
If not, is there another method to doing this?
It should work exactly the same. Actually, there are some things that dont need the sd card data.
Even I have this doubt.

I did the exact same thing. Literally just copy everything over. And it will work exactly the same as before.

I did it several times (8->16->32) and confirm that simple file copying works fine.
Thanks a lot for the replies ^^

Hi,
Anyone know if our phones are able to use sdhc cards?
Yes they are.
I have a SanDisk Ultra 8GB Micro SDHC I (partitioned using ClockworkMod Recovery) and it works fine for me.

Thanks. Its just that i am having some issues but i think its to do with the card failing! I've got a 16gig mini sdhc that refuses to format no matter what software i use.
Anyone had difficilties before and found a solution??
How bigger the size of the Micro SD(HC) Card, the more issues are with it. As I sad, this is also with SD, not only SDHC.

I think it maybe a fake card or a dud batch! Bought it off eBay so I guess that's the risk you take!

I've got a Kingston 8GB sdhc card in my gt-s5830-i which works fine. If you haven't saved anything to your card partition it using ClockworkMod recovery. Using that you can create an sd-ext2 second partition (see "advanced" -> "partition SD card") for use with the link2sd app for moving apps from internal memory on to that partition on the card.

[Q]Can't mount Kingston micro sd 16gb class 10 on JB rom(Sgs I9000 USER)

I think everyones know about this mounting problem for sg i9000 user since update to JB..it would be great for those never had this problem since upgrade to jb but not for me having this problem..currently,i'm using kingston 16gb class 10 sd card on my i9000.i don't know this could happen because after upgrade to jb,my sd card showing blank sd card on notification bar and not supported something like that.i try to format it through my phone also doesn't work.i've been try other methods to solved it including partition my sd card but,result is still the same:crying:.and today i try to use my other sd card kingston 8gb class 4 and it working on my phone..i don't know why this could happen to my 16gb class 10 which more standard than 8gb class 4..anyones can help me to solved this?plz...
nope, i also got da problem recently, dont know da cause but changing sd was da method, as for me, any 16gb any class (tried 15 different sd with same value) but dont detect on phone, change to any 8gb or 32gb, working perfectly, tried adb, usb debug, partitioning (pc n cwm), formatting n lastly hit it with hammer , n still not detecting on fone. try any option available on xda n even LvL format not working. so i decide to buy a new 32gb for my fone.

Thanks anyway for ur advise and suggestion..for me,i believe our developers will solved this problem matter how.this cannot be because of the value of memory card i think,just like what u said try with different class.because when i was on ics before,my sd card working without any problem.the problem is maybe the android system for this model smartphone.or could this happen because of my memory card still on r/w protection?huh...i'm still looking for this solution.i won't waste my money again to buy new sd card.
