After 5.0 Lollipop update, I chose SD card from App installation in customized settings. But while I'm installing app from Play Store, device was rebooting any time. I did factory reset and format SDcard but still have same problem Im using ME176CX 5.0 rooted, please help!
Same to me , install to internal memory and everything ok, then I moved to the external SD card and now all ok.

Hi Guys,
I've got this weird issue with my Xperia T.
When I insert my 32GBSD card, the phone says "Preparing SD card...", and then proceeds as normal. If I got to storage in the settings menu, it recognises the card is present and mounted. I can unmount it and re-mount it.
However, when I try to access the Album/Gallery apps (stock 4.0.4, stock 4.1.2, CM10, AOSP 4.1) it says "Memory unmounted or unavailable" or "Insert SD card". I don't get this as I can access the card with file manager apps, as well as on my PC. I've tried another SD card and the same thing happens.
It happens in any ROM I test. Manually rescanning the media will pick up my music in the Walkman app, and will load the images in Album, but the "Insert SD card" messages still appear.
Do you guys have any idea as to what's going on?
***EDIT***
What's interesting to note is that when I restore a NANDroid backup (which restores my latest CM10 installation), the phone boots up fine and recognises the SD card fine, and even updates in Walkman, etc. when I upload new songs through the USB cable. However, as soon as I remove the card, I'll get the same symptoms.

Make a backup if your sd card and then clear it in settings. It is a known issue when changing from cm to other roms

I did search. I formatted and wiped my SD card many times, to no avail.
Not sure what I did, but it now works since clearing Dalvik Cache, Cache, System and Internal SD data.
Thanks anyway.
I was running rooted stock ICS for Turkey and I installed JB for Germany after it released. When Turkey update for JB released, I moved on it and tried to restore my settings and apps. However when I tried to restore, while Titanium Backup in progress I got the error memory full and couldn't achieve the restore process. I erased backups more than one and tried to do wipes but no solution. I made a clean install again and there were about 1GB space but when I rooted and installed Titanium Backup again, the space decreased to 400MB. I guessed there was a problem about TB and now I decided to run a complete new install.
So my question is how to format SD Card completely? There are a lot of folders about apps and apps that I removed etc. I want them gone and I want my phone as it is on the first day. How can I do that progress? I tried factory reset but it didn't involve SD Card. Everything remains same. How can I erase all the things on SD Card?

I didn't mean the external card, I mean the internal storage of phone.

If you are on safe kernel then yes you can format your internal sd card. Just go to SETTINGS>STORAGE>FORMAT SDCARD(INTERNAL STORAGE)

I couldn't achieve formating in JB but I have CWM backup for ICS. I downgraded and tried USB format in ICS and finally, succesfuly done it. Thanks for the interests by the way.

Hello,
So I have an xperia Z with 16gb of internal memory and about 11gb usable and a sd card with 64gb, so the problem is I have used all that space internal with games and I can't transfer apps to external sd card (thats one of the reasons why I got a 64gb card so I could install games on it but turns out I can't) you used to be able on older phones like I had an lg optimus black and transferred apps to sd easily, so is there a way to transfer apps to sd or not I tried gl to sd which didn't work the phone just reboots when mounted and tried alot of other apps but the same thing happens and its not straight forward lol, the other question is will they allow apps to external sd when 4.4 is out? If so, I don't mind waiting lol
Also my phone is 4.3, rooted, locked boot loader and have dual recovery 2.7.78 and stock
I don't want to partition the sd either

Hello,
I'm running Cm 12 (based on this xda thread. I did my original install off of this RootJunky tutorial.
I'm not getting access to the external sd card. I have wiped and re-flashed about 6 times in TWRP, each time pulling my flash files off of the external sd card, I have tested the card in a pc, works fine. But it's not showing when I run the tablet or when I connect the tablet to my laptop with a usb cable.
Any ideas or suggestions on how I can fix this?
Thank in advance for any help!

Cm12 currently only works with certain file systems, do you know which file system the SD card is formatted to?

I just finally solved it, and I hope this thread can help some other people -- thanks for the response, by the way! I have been reading some of your other posts this week, and you are the man!
So, what I ended up doing was backing up my sd card on a pc, then reformatting it. It still didn't work. But CM 12 was giving me a message every time I took the sd card out of the slot, telling to insert a card. I was exploring permission in SuperSu and CM 12, and eventually I ended up activating the "Delete Sd Card" option under storage. I didn't think it was available to me, because it was grayed out and didn't show my card anywhere. It was. I deleted it, and it must have reformatted it with a compatible file system. It works. It's letting move apps to sd card, sd card shows up in file managers, other apps and when I connect to pc.
Now, the only issue I really want to resolve is getting Google Play Games to work.
Hello,
currently I have CM 13 - Android 6.0 on my Phone.
I am using my SD Card apart from my Internal Storage(because the SD Card is slow and I don't want to connect the Card with my internal storage for this reason the apps are lagging like hell if I do this and I buy in the next time maybe a new one but not now)
So far so good, I copied music on my SD Card, but I cannot play it, because of the bad permissions since Lollipop
I flashed an extra ZIP in the Recovery for fixing the permissions, but it helps not if I copy new music to the card, I have to flash the ZIP again if I move new Music for example.
So, what should I do in this situation?
All answers are welcome
Regards.
