[Help] SD card is mounted by recovery but not by system

Hi there.
I have a 32 GB SD card, which is partitiooned onto FAT32 and ext 3 for s2e.
I rebooted into recovery to flash a new rom, and went to wipe data, it all went fine until the SD ext format. It got stuck (waited 15 minutes then pulled battery off). Tried again, nothing. But SD card mounted fine on recovery. Flashed the rom without wipes, it didn't boot. Replaced SD card and it booted. Unmounted the other SD card on settings, and plugged the 32 Gb one, it didn't recognized. But: recovery did.
Then I remembered I took my SD card off to listen to music on my DVD before that, could've that messed up my SD or external partition?
Will I have to reformat it on PC?27 GB of data, oh god

No that wont make the sd card corrupt.. bt if some operation is going and if u hav removed sd card. That could make it corrupt. Bt u try magic partition n first try to format only sd-ext if possible.
Or u can also try some recovery tools to copy ur data..
If dat doesnt work. I wil try to search for u n wil try how to get it back
Hit thanks if that helped u:thumbup:

Tried formatting sd ext on mini tool partition wizard. It took about 2 hours and showed unfformated partition. Tried again, same thing.
When I was going to format the main FAT32 partition my cousin left and took her notebook but tried through CWM recovery and it got stuck...
It still mounts on CWM, the pc and my dvd...
I think I will try to put it into my moms nokia then format it, then try to format it again on CWM

Soooooo... Tried at my friends, and when deleting SD ext partition it says "bad disk"... but i close the program, re open and it shows the freaking ext partition again LOL
EDIT: Im starting to think that somehow my SD card is set to read-only. Is that possible?

insert sd card in phone-->setting-->storage-->unmount sd card-->then there is 4th option erase sd card..erase everything..then reboot your phone.now check your sd card memory..

ums transfer uber slow or none!

sd card class 10, high speed port for usb, update drivers, update samsung drivers...
STILL getting slow transfer speed rate or NONE! after 5 seconds got message on my pc The path is too deep, or F: disk cant be recognized...using emanonv7, cm7 mebitek/official, cm10.1, any rom gives me this...but after 5 restarts, 5,6 disconecting from ums, its back to normal for 2,3 transfers, and problem is back...
any idea whats the problem? Partitioning bad or...?
p.s. i didnt have this problem from november, before that i had just slow transfer rate, not this problem...

Just take backup of your SD card and then use Minitool Partition Wizard to delete all partitions and create partitions again.... Do create all partitions as primary and not logical... After that copy data to SD card again... I think your SD card has been fragmented too much...

major part of it is fat32 so i guessed it gets fragmented over time; but what's the best/appropriate way to fix it?
[suffering from >almost< same problem like nixoman; and whenever copying big chunks i go to recovery and mount usb, which makes the speed bareable]

AW: ums transfer uber slow or none!
You could buy a card reader for like 9€, connect it to pc, plug in sd and then try the defragment option of windows? (Is it called defragment?)
Edit::
Nooo... xD now I had nearly EXACTLY the same problem after copying half a gig music on the sd (well, it didn't work the first time, idk why so i did it another time and tada: transfer rate only ca 2 mb/sec this time.) I checked it with the defragment tool and i saw it was really fragmented. After defragmenting 2 times, now it's 0% fragmented again! I'd suggest it for you, too.

[Q] Swap storage partitions?

I have a 32GB sdcard, but gameloft being idiots as usual don't give me a choice to use it. I know of gl to sd but it caused me some issues resulting in me downloading data again. Does someone know how to change sdcard to /sdcard and internal into /external_sd? Its been done on phones such as some galaxy s series so why not us? Failing that can someone point me to a clear guide on how to use gl to sd properly?

You might want to use Directory Bind. Please refer to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410262

Ok I binded the obb files for mc4, played great first time, second time I deleted obb file in internal as that's the point, to save space, now I launch the game it deletes the obb from external too and asks to download again, what did I do wrong ?
Wait, I think I get it, when bound, both folders are the same right? So when I deleted the internal memory file I actually deleted the external one. I figured this when I started the download and file shows up in both, correct me if I'm wrong

I don't really remember how the whole binding process goes. As far as I can recall, there's a process where the app copying all the data from your internal storage to the sd card. When it's done, just leave it as it is.
Btw, did you check your the your internal storage space after binding?

[Q] Xperia V - move application to micro SD

I have alerte from my V that the memory is almost full
I would like to know how can i move applicatiobn to the micro SD because the only option that i have in the menu "application" is to move from phone to internal storage
Someone have the solution to really use complementary memory or are we limited to the 4gb included into the phone for application ?
Thanks in advance

Use Link2SD. It can move applications to the SD card

Thank you but it doesnt work.
Infact android consider the second part of internal memory as a sd card and don t see the real card to move the application
The V have 3 memories :
Memory of phone
Internal memory
Sd card
The solution should be to invers the internal memoory and the sd card but how ?

Use directory bind. Works perfectly in mine.

Thanks i m looking forward an easy method to root my phone and i will try it

works good with directory bind.

I have some problem with directory bind.
The default is sdcard/ext scard. I supposed this is gears towards Samsung devices.
How do we do it in V?.
Or any other apps that does the same?

Just enter source from ext_card and target to sdcard. Works perfectly. Btw, I let directory bind do the transfer (check transfer files)

This is normal
Android always seek first mounted storage memory, in this case, sdcard0 for store any files first
After that, you can move it to another directory
You can do nothing for this behaviour, except you change OS system behaviour itself
