Hey Guys, a friend of mine has a HTC vivid and his SD card was fine until he started installing roms. He currently has Pacman rom and his SD card will not mount anymore. It mounted previously before he flashed the rom but now it doesn't.

Once you got that... if you reboot to recovery and turn on USB mounts... then connect it to the PC... it will work... has for everyone else

If you would listen instead of being a **** to ppl you would have seen some including me have told you to try formatting it using twrp recovery and see if it mounts. Don't come here demanding help. Use the search and see if its happened before too

For the record..and even tho I get the feeling there's a troll in our midst..I'll offer one piece of advice: the PAC ROM has had the SD mount issue fixed for awhile now. My recommendation? Flash the PAC ROM.. then go be happy. Being rude won't get you any positive feedback in these forums. You take all responsibility when using software found on xda. If you don't fully understand what's happening..use Google and read..read..read.. and if that doesn't shed any light for you on the subject..maybe custom ROMs are something you should just not try to mess with.

Hey MG, thanks for the advice. I had the same problem earlier today, and tried TWRP. Fixed it right up. I finally got brave enough to root and rom my HTC Vivid yesterday, and between SD Card Problems and Wi-Fi problems I had begun to think I'd made the wrong choice. I've rooted and rom'ed phones before, but almost never my daily driver. This was my daily driver, so again thanks! And OP the link for TWRP is teamw.in/project/twrp go there have your friend follow instructions precisely, and all will be ok. And friend... chill... it's nothing to get po'ed about. As a note the fastboot was the easiest method for me... and quicker too. If you don't know about fast boot look around on the forums and there's some great info about it. Cheers!:highfive:
btw sorry for no direct links... I'm still an XDA Forum Noob

Hello all. I could use a hand and hope that this could help any others that may have crawled into the bag that I am in. I have flashed the bejesus out of this phone and have arrived at a situation where I cannot access the internal sd. Recovery works. ext sd is available. BUT, I get error messages along the lines of [E: Can't mount /Dev/block/mmcblk1p1 and also mmcblk0p36] whenever I try to wipe. CWM Recovery. S-on. Never had any problems until i started trying the JB builds some of you have so awesomely bestowed upon our sweet hardware. This is the first time in over a dozen devices I have gotten stuck and saying hail meatballs to the flying spaghetti monster is not helping. I would be very greatful for some advice. Thank You.

Thanks! put WCX on it. I just happened to have it in one of my old folders. Running holics all lubed up now. Everything A OK. :good:
Hi, so for the last two weeks i found this issue that's been killing me.
I run a P970 (Optimus Black) running always the latest NIGHTLY from CM10.1.
Two weeks ago I was updating the phone to the version "10.1-20130121-NIGHTLY" and everything went smoothly but after the reboot the phone wouldn't mount my SD card anymore. Mind you that I use a good SD CARD (Amazon Basics 16gb) and tried going into storage and mounting it from there. After several atempts such as removing battery, inserting SD and booting again I decided to check if my SD was corrupted.
IT WAS NOT! TAM DAM DAM!!!
I could access all of my files just fine from my computer.
Just to clear my mind I decided to format the SD card with SD FORMATER but it did bloody nothing.
After that, still holding on to my good manners I tried 3 other SD CARDS that I had laying around.
Nothing....
Now. It was personal.
I spent these last weeks and many aeons searching XDA and the rest of the internet for a case similar to mine and the closest I got, is a thread about a EVO 4G. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
Unfortunatly, my Optimus Black refuses to play nice and still hasn't shape shifted to a EVO 4G so we could all move along.
Does anyone has come to a problem like this one? Know how to fix it?
I have already prayed to the Elder Gods and all that it brought me were these horrible, horrible nightmares.
Please, help!

Make a nandroid, flash another stock rom, do factory reset from hidden menu and try again. Then you ll see, of it is hard or software related.

You should do a backup, so you can restore it if needed... although restoring it without a working cwm will be... hard to impossible i mean restoring it without being able to mount the sd card is pretty complicated... are you able to access the sd card in cwm?

I ll ask again. Are you able to access you sd card in cwm? Maybe check if the small switch next to the sd card isnt moving, if you put it in. Also check, if it works, if you put some preasure on the sd card slot. Dont yet give up on it

Hi, can you please teach me how to flash a newer version without an SD card?
Thanks
Download the latest nightly in your PC
Put your SD in your PC
Copy the file to your SD
Put your SD in your phone
Turn on your phone
When is on long press your power button
Select reboot, select reboot recovery
From there you must know the rest.

I was being incredible stupid actually. I finally managed to flash a new rom. There was some debris inside the SD Slot. I managed to open the smartphone out of its shell and remove it.
Thanks guys!
I flashed a new rom* today and everything works great except for the internal sd card not able to mount.
Ask what more information you need.

Not really a helpful response.. I'm quite aware it says that, as I've already stated that in my original post. Once I have flashed the rom and other file, do I flash the boot.img file before or after restarting the phone?

Internal SD Card recognized but will not mount!
Hey,
I recently rooted my HTC Vivid (ATT) and installed CyanogenMod version 10-20131006-NIGHTLY-holiday. Everything works fine but I cant get the internal sd card to mount. There is an option in the storage setting that say "mount internal sd card." When I press that it appears as if it is mounting then it Apps, Pictures, videos, Audio(music, ringtone..... etc. Almost right after you press that it goes back to the mount sd card button. I have flashed the boot.img, used the terminal emulator and still have the same problem! I would really really (and just to drive it home) REALLY appreciate it if someone would help me with this!
If you need more info or would like to contact me to help me just email me at [email protected]
You can also just message me here if you wish.
Lemme guess... You're using CWM...
If not... I bet you factory reset from hboot

so when you boot to recovery, what does it say? Is it TWRP, CWM, WCX?
In all likelihood, you've lost the data on your internal storage. Rignfool has posted a fix for this issue countless times, and a quick forum search should come up with a topic where he outlines how to fix it. It involves mounting your phone via the recovery, and letting your windows computer fix/format the internal SD.

Its WCX. Sorry to be so naive but I looked and could not find Regnfool's post. Could you send a link to a few of them? I dont know if this helps but what I want to fix is the apps that use the sd card. Some apps that I know stored info on the sd card on my stock rom will work but are reset after I am finished using them. So bassically apps with save data half work due to this issue. Once again this is the first time I have ever rooted and installed a ROM so im a "rookie" just needing help.

Not a problem! It's an issue a lot of people (including me) have run into while doing stuff. Just count yourself lucky your charge port was working! (mine was not at the time, and was much more of a headache).
Has anybody gotten theirs to mount in recovery? I've tried three different thumb drives all formatted in fat32 but it doesn't mount.

Apparently you have to have a powered OTG device, which requires having a Y-splitter for power, AND you need a recovery kernel that supports OTG. I know one has been made for TWRP 2.6.3.0 for the Nexus 4.
I don't know if anyone has ported this to the HTC One. My search of XDA led me to your question...
It's broke in the latest version. It worked before. I moved to cwm because of this.

I've been trying to do basically the same thing, but I've got CWM and it's just not recognizing the drives at all
Borked for me as well on the new version. Not much of an upgrade if you ask me, been borked for months. I have to use the new version though because I just updated my radios & touch panel firmware.
not sure what happened people but my sprint htc one wont boot anything up, tried fastboot and tried to side load. My computer wont read the phone to do a side push. so my question is what options do i have to possibly fix this? thanks in advance for any and all help.

Sorry to hear that. He must have gotten to recovery somehow and wiped everything. The easiest way is to flash a new rom from usb storage, much easier than sideloading (need drivers, etc). And next time better add a lock code [emoji6]
