Hey everyone, question for you. I have an 8gb card i would love to be using in my phone. Problem is cwm can't read it or mount it. Yet the phone knows its there, as i was using it for music. My 2gb card works fine in cwm, but i would like to use my 8gb. I formatted it in the phone, still no dice. Any thoughts?

I had the same issue...I even tried reformatting via my PC. Nothing seemed to work. To fix this all u need to do is Boot into CWM select Advance...then Partition SD Card...i created a partition of 128MB....then reboot into CWM and you should then be able to mount your SD Card. I was getting Error: could not mount SD card....this resolved my issue and i was read my sd card in CWM.

i had the same problem with my 32gig class 10. its something wrong with your sd card. some file or somehting is corrupt. i did reformat on my pc and it didnt make any difference. a Mod on this site helped me out with this and i want to help you.. you dont have to partition anything this way i am going to show you.. if you download a program called 'sd formatter' and run it on your sd card it will work if you. it took 3 hours to format my sd card. if cant find it or need help or questions PM and i can help you out. :)
