Taboonay 2.2 and file expert. It just got an update so I'm guessing I'm just not bright enough to figure it out. I can find all other files on card.

Did you try to put something in it using a pc?

Try going to settings/sd card and under internal sd(usb storage in gingerbread) try formatting it by clicking on format.. Save your files inside the internal sd first before formatting..

Flashing new rom

Hey guys quick question. J am unlocked, rooted with s off. I have aman recovery. When i go to recovery, flash zip from card it doesnt show any images, just some folders. I am assuming i want the one that says boot.img from when i extracted to the root of the sd but it isnt showing up. Do i need to rename it?

If you are flashing a ROM you want to copy the zip file to your card.
From what you have written it sounds like you unzipped the ROM and copied the .img files to the root.
So if that is the case erase the files/folders you extracted and placed on your sdcard and then copy the zip file to the root. After that go back to recovery and select the zip you copied over.

Damn xda app I was trying to quote not thank. Could you give a link to the scripts you are talking about. Most times they are flashable from recovery but without knowing which ones you are talking about I really can not suggest what to do.

That script will only work on a sense Rom and only on the 5.0.7 base. Is that the Rom you are flashing?

Hi,
Are you trying to wipe your data in order to install a new ROM?
Or are you trying to format your sd card?
They are 2 different things.

Hi,
You want to go into recovery.
Mount and storage.
Format external sd.
Make sure you back up your stuff first.
Why would I format ext sd? That woukd be my micro sd memorycard

That's what you asked for in your post "just the sd card"
In s4 there is 2 storage areas internal storage and external storage which is the sd card...

@cameracartwright
If you want to format your internal SD card using PhilZ CWM do the following:
Mounts and storage/ format SD card.
However there is no need if you install an app from Play Store called SDMaid, it's awesome!!
Go to 'corpse finder' and it cleans out your phone of left over crap from previous apps and roms

[Q] Can't move apps to sd using SACs custom rom v4.1 [SOLVED]

I'm having issues moving apps to my sd card, I keep getting an error not enough space even though I have 59gb available. I've tried reformatting the card in my phone but that doesn't work, any suggestions would be appreciated Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
I found a couple articles and forms saying the cause of this could be because of the 4.3 update, has anyone else using 4.3 experienced the following error message when trying to move an app to external sd card "Unable to move app. Not enough storage space"?

Good idea, another user suggested I reformat the sd card using Philz Recovery (I selected exFat format) then rebooted and was able to move apps
