Problem With sd card under motorolarom

When I have installed the motorola ROM my sd card don't work correctly...no image will be safed...
Under cm7 it works fine...
Can someone help me?
!I found a solution!
1. Download the zip
2. unzip
3. put your sc card in your PC/LAPTOP
4. Start the english.bat
5. Settings in Check Flash:
a) Acces Type = As physical Device
b) Device = Your SD Card
c) Action Type = Low level initialization
d) all other should now be gray then click start
6. in the new window delete the Fat32LBA Partition
7. Creat at sector 0 a new partition FAT32 WITHOUT LBA!!!
then click ok/finish and close Check Flash
8. press Start enter cmd
9. format X: /fs:fat32 /a:32K
Wait wait wait wait wait ... and then it should work perfect
I found the solution here

There are problems with sd cards higher than class 6. You can do nothing expect using CM7. (it is a problem with the froyo kernel).

I already read that but I have a class 4 and a 4.5.1 full sbf

you could try this, navigate to your, DCIM folder and delete the thumbnails folder, on the phone or even on your pc.
then the phone will load all the thumbnails once again. keep note that, as many thumbnails you have, the slower the sd card will perform. it will not save any captured images, and will not also show any pics in the gallery. i think it has problem with indexing all the pics.
this was a problem in the official moto stock roms. that was the reason I left hd recording, and switched to cm7 from the 2.4 rom. im on defy red.

Please delete this

Turn off your phone.
Eject the card.
Copy *all* files within the old card into the new card.
Insert the new card.
Done

Hello mates, greetings from Turkey.
i bought the following sd card and start using it in my i8150. However phone freezes / thinks a lot almost everytime when it starts using this SD i.e. during startup, previewing gallery, etc.
is this a known issue or something fixable?
here is the link of my new SD.

maybe you're copying a lot of files into your sdcard and some of it maybe a corrupt files.
try to format it again and put only the files you needed.

for an exact solution, i formatted everything (phone, internal sd, external sd by following the "go pristine" procedure).
then put the new update zip files to re-install the rom, open the phone in CWM mod.
CWM saw the contents of the ext.sd and i started installing zip file.
CWM was saying that it is installing the zip, however it was doing nothing as there were no further progress of installation.
at that point i figured out that my phone and my new sdhc class 10 ext.sd card are not able to communicate in a healthy way.
card is working in laptop, but has trouble working in the phone. most probably card was corrupted at the first stage while i am buying iti from store.
so i am giving up this.
just fyi.

Hi,
here is what i did last hour.
formatted again in "default" format and tried to re-install rom from ext.sd.
During first attempt, attached screen does not changed for 30 minutes, so i gave up again and force to shut down the phone by pressing down power button for 8 seconds.
I thought the phone will shut down only, but it restared in CWM mode. Then i gave another try and this time phone processed the zip file.
so far no new problems but let you know in case of one.

use that Rom RemICS 1.7
and here it's the Link: http://d-h.st/xwI

Phone sometimes loosing connection to ext.sd especially When i try to open a video from ext.sd.
Looks like my ext.sd has defect since it departed from the factory.
Lastly i will try a new format via gparted and if it fails again to work properly i will use it in my laptop only.

couldn't install on usb storage or sd card

I tried doing the unmount trick, the one with the terminal. Still nothing
The "funny" thing is that I can install free apps without problem, but when I download Swype and Poweramp unlocker (which I bought) i keep getting this error
solutions?

Did you try a Link2SD?

More details please buddy, want to help but need to know as much as you can tell. Rom, flash details, when it first happened, etc.

Hello, I have flashed the JellyKat ROM v5 on my NoteII and got a new sd card (ADATA 32GB) from ebay, the card was sealed so I hope I wasn't cheated, but randomly I see these things in my DCIM folder and I can't write to the card and the phone seems to not read the media on it music photos everything, and I can't install any apps on it or update existing app or even create a folder through the default touchwiz My Files.
I tried to format the card on the PC but can only do quick format because it loads and loads and then say windows can't format this, I also formated it via the phone it worked for a while and then stopped working again, now I don't put a card in the phone.

I have been using my old card from my tablet all day now and it is working fine I created a new folder and copied some files from internal storage to it to test it and it worked.
Is there a way to fix the corrupted partitions on the other card?

Yup, I also faced that kind of problem before, simply run KitKat SD fix, grant root and let the app patch the platform.xml. Reboot and try again. It worked for me. :good:

kitkat move to SD problem

hey guys could someone help me out on this ..The move to SD card option brought out after the kitkat update for our phone somehow doesnt work for me .. instead of moving the app data to external sd card , it moves to the internal sd ..
example i downloaded the game fifa 2014 which is like 1.3gb ..when i say move to sd card the internal sd card almost gets full with and only a very small amount of data say 100 mb goes to the external sd .. same with minion rush too.. is this the way it works ?

The problem is due to move to sd option - when you move apps to SD card using move to SD option what is happening is only some part of app is moved to external SD card and some part remains in the internal memory...so when you switch off your mobile the external sd card automatically gets unmounted & all the apps which has link to it gets broken & shortcuts gets deleted. when you switch on your phone the external sd card gets mounted & you can find all your apps in the main apps section but the shortcuts no longer appear & you have to again create them.:crying:

Its because the app are in SDcard not in internal...so as your phone remove the sdcard then the app is gone..

[HELP] Storage Issue [Unable to access Internal Storage]

Hello Guys,
I have purchased a micromax canvas a1 from a retail store 2 days ago and there is no problem in the device except that i am not able to access my phone memory (or internal SD) with using any file manager app (root browser also) nor able to access it through pc when connected. Only External SD card is accessible.
There is no problem in app installation, i am able to move app data to External SD card and vice versa. The storage setting also shows internal SD and the app manager too displays the internal SD capacity. Everything is fine except i am not able to view the internal SD card.
I have unlocked bootloader and Flashed CWM and Installed official Cyanogenmod 11 ROM but the problem still persists. You can check the below Screenshots. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for that info. Hope Lollipop update may fix it.
Wondering why nobody complained about it.
Thank you again.

I was also wondering why nobody mentioned this..
My internal storage runs out of space all the time and it bugs me that I can't access it.
And as for nexus devices, they don't have an sd card slot at all, so you can access the internal memory.
