Any Idea what may cause a Galaxy J3 not to recognize SD cards correctly?
When I have one in the phone it says "sd card empty or not supported file system" - when I format it it still says the same.
The card is alright (tested in pc) and in custom recovery its even working, but not in the system?!
Really weird..
Use windows run a 'chkdsk e: /F /R' on the SD card

Hey. I have owned my Wildfire for a week now so I am still a noob. I wanted to know if it's possible to install a custom ROM on the wildfire without an SD card so basically do it through USB. I have seen some phones can do it with Amon RA recovery but I don't think it is possible for the Wildfire.
Thanks.
Dont think it is although why would you want to do it without? The wf comes with a sd card

Because when i put my SD card in the adapter and put it into my laptop it cant open the card and asks "do you want to format" and when i choose yes it says "unable to complete format" so im screwed with that SD card
Use paragon partition n look on YouTube 4 a video that will sort it out n will fix that error

Still dont work its not even showing up on my computer now ive probably ****ed it somehow but on my phone it says 1.83gb free space. weird.
Dose paragon partitioning show ur sd at all if not erm check to make sure ur SD card reader is ok bu using a different SD card
if paragon partitioning is showing ur sd card.
is ur SD card signed as active and does it have a volume letter as these thing will stop I from formating the SD card

It showed my SD card then when I tried to format it would only show my hard drive and plus the free version does not let you do anything to the card.
Try Panasonic SD Formatter:

E: Probably unrelated, but, make sure your card reader supports SDHC cards.
1.What happens when you connect the phone via USB and choose mount as disk drive?
2.When you use the SD card adapter, and right click on the SD card's drive letter if there's an option to "open as portable device" try that also try updating your laptops card reader drivers.
3.Use bluetooth to transfer the ROMS?
4. If you're already rooted, try formatting SD card via ROM MAnager.
As far as I know you cannot install custom firmware (a "ROM") without an SD card.
You don't have to use your SD card directly from the computer to install custom firmware. You can use file storage mode on your phone's USB connection or adb to access your SD card through your phone on your computer.
To install CyanogenMod with the help of adb, follow the steps in hxxp://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=HTC_Wildfire:_Full_Update_Guide and put the update.zip into the root of your SD card with this command:
Code:
adb push update-cm-6.1.0-buzz-signed.zip /sdcard/
You need to have your phone connected to your computer, have the appropriate drivers installed to do this and have USB debugging enabled on your phone. Documentation on adb is available at hxxp://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
An alternative way to the above adb method is to enable USB phone storage mode when you connect your phone to your computer and transfer the update.zip file to your SD card.
Hi guys thanks for all your help I have fixed my problem. All I did was use a windows 7 laptop and it worked.
my Samsung galaxy y every time show " SD card removed", but it is inserted properly, and after that every time it shows media scanner.
what to do....
Update Latest Firmware ......... Format Ur SD Card Using Partition Mini Tools or Any Nokia Device
Note:Before Format SD Card Please Backup Us SD Card.....:good::good::good:
hello recently i bought samsung galaxy s4 GT I9500.
I bought a 16gb micro sd class-10 from japan. When i insert it in my s4 it shows the blank sd card and request to format it. I used this sd card in my previous version s3 and s2. All shows ok. Even when i insert this sd card in another any mobile it shows ok. But it dose not work in S4. I already tried this SD card in other S4. They shows the same problem.
So my question is......is the S4 did not support class 10? or any other way that i can use my SD card in S4?
One think I have to tell you that I already Update my S4 via kies. Before and after up gradation problem is same.

Just remove the micro sdcard from the phone and put it into an adaptor so you
can plug it into your computer, after that format the card using FAT32 only.
Once you do that it will work just fine in any phone including any galaxy S4.
Good luck with it.

Have you formatted the card using phone..??
Do format it using Setting -> Storage -> Format memory card. DON'T format if using any file explorer.

Here is a good way to find out what the problem is.
Install a file manager from the play store if you don't already have
one and see if it recognizes the externel sdcard if it does then go
into cwm recovery mode and see if you can read the external sdcard.
If you can access the sdcard using your file manager but not cwm recovery
or rom manager then the fault is with cwm recovery or rom manger and
perhaps you need to get the latest versions.
What I would do is to go to the playstore and get "goomanager"
which is free download and use that to flash TWRP recovery which
is a full touch recovery system and which will recognize your sdcard.
TWRP has all the options and features which cwm has and even more.
When you are in goomanager just click the menu key and
select "installopenrecoveryscript".
Once it gets done flashing, select "reboot recovery" in goomanager
and it will boot to TWRP recovery.
Good luck!

I was very specific and I don't know how I can elaborate more on my post.
What part of what I wrote don't you understand?
Dear Members,
i am using Samsung Galaxy S-4 i9500 (rooted device) and facing an issue regarding SD card. my SD card not accessible, the msg i saw on my phone is "Sd card is blank or unsupported filesys.." Now its doesn't format or showing any dat. i need your help guys.
Thanks
Hey, I have the same problem too. I tried inserting into my PC but it also didn't recognize it. I also tried opening the command prompt (cmd) and running this command chkdsk /X /F E: but no luck. So I ended up buying a new one.
You may want to play around with the partitions in the SD card on the PC.
silly question time, but when i go to storage on galaxy s5 and press the option to mount card, it makes the sd card unreadable and corrupt and i have to format it if i want to use it again losing all data. should os not recognise that the sd card is already mounted and not try and force a mount on it? tried this a few times just to see and every time and kills the sd card.
Tried a different card? Maybe it's a faulty SDcard

Maybe youre formatting it wrong, dont put it as ntfs or anything, your bwst option would be fat32 or exfat or similar.
