Formated SD card now cant connect to computer PLEASE HELP - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I checked the settings in the ICS and saw something like clear/format the internal SD I don't remember exactly.
I pressed the button.
Now I cant connect the SGS2 to the computer it just shows me 2 unrecognized partitions.
From recovery in the internal SD card there are 3 folders of the system.
What to do?
Maybe flash a stock ROM?

since you have formated your internal sd, you have a blank drive, since the external sd card depends on the internal.
You need to flash a new rom using odin.

[Q] Custom ROMs and SD card

I have used some custom ROMs (2.2, 2.3) on my X10, but none of them recognizes my SD card. The stock ROM (2.1) reads it properly, it is visible when I connect the phone to the computer via USB using the stock ROM.But when i use a custom one it says "Please mount SD card..." on Storage Settings and the computer recognizes it as removable disk, but it shows that the card is empty.I've tried cleaning all types of caches, full wipe, mounting/unmounting the SD card and formatting it with xRecovery and changing different basebands.
Is it a ROM bug, or I am doing something wrong?
Please check that your SD card is formatted to FAT 32. If not, the ROM won't recognised it.
Your SD card is probably partitioned.
Custom ROMs for X10 only recognise the second partition on an SD card,
meaning if you have one FAT32 and one ext2 (ext3, ext4, etc), it will mount the second and thus won't be able to read it, so you'll get an "SD card corrupted" message.
You need to wipe and erase the second partition with the same program you used to create it and it should work fine on any custom ROM.
I wiped the old partitions and then formatted the SD card to FAT32.Now it's recognized properly by the ROM.Thanks to both of you!!!

Format the sd card and then copy the files you backed up to the computer maybe you did something like hitting the wrong button on somewhere...

To format external SD in your phone,
Goto, Settings - Storage - Erase SD ( make sure you are erasing your external SD, you can use the size to confirm)
Or do it in CWM recovery

[Q] No acces to External SD Card !

Hi
Since quite a while now, I don't have any way to access my External SD Card on my phone.
I just installed latest Slim Bean and problem remains, nothing is mounted, even under CWM it can't mount /sdcard
My card is working well in my friend GS2 so I don't really understand what s happening. ANy idea how to fix this ?
Cheers !
I suggest you save the contents of the sdcard to your computer and then reformat the card through your phone, it might then be recognized by the phone.
If it is recognized simply copy back the contents from your computer.

The card isn't shown anywhere in the phone . I can't erase it from the phone so !
I did not say erase. reboot into cwm recovery - mounts and storage and format ext sdcard.
use the adapter that came with your sdcard to copy to computer.
If it is not recognized in recovery, there is a problem with your rom.

[Q] Inserting micro sd breaks phone external storage

Ok so I have never heard of this one before and I have tried looking for an answer.
My S2 works perfect when it has no micro sd inserted but the moment I put in a micro sd card the phone will boot ok but then it will not recognize any of the phone external storage (the 16gb bit) I get an mtp application has stopped error and I cannot access anything with any file managers not internal storage, external storage, or micro sd. The micro sd doesn't even show up and the rest show all directories as empty. I have this problem exactly the same if I flash a custom rom or stock rom rooted or unrooted it makes no difference. Anyone have any ideas? I have tried different sd cards but they all cause the same problem. I have tried reformatting the sd card also.
Flash dorimanx kernel version for the ROM you're on and test. Also formatting int sd card may help with this. Bk up you're data. format it and test.

[Q] Wiped and formatted SD Card. Needed files for Android?

Ok so I wiped and formatted my SD Card to FAT32. I am in the reboot/recovery screen of my android with ClockworkMod and I noticed when I turned on USB Mass Storage, the SD Card is readable but there is nothing on it now. Is there any important files I am going to need to put on the SD Card for my android to function correctly on start up/running? Or will my android automatically put the correct files on the SD Card on boot? Haven't tried booting it yet lol..don't want to screw it up.

There is no need for an external SD card to boot into the OS. You can start your system without the card or with the card erased or w/e. Good luck .
