I used the NVflash root method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714, but when I tried to update CWM from v3.0.2.8 to v3.1.0.1 it can't mount the sdcard. Every solution I've seen says that you need to format the sdcard but I can't format it using Windows because it views it as a media device and I can't format it from CWM because it needs to mount it to format it. Any ideas on how I can get it working? Or should I try flashing roms by another method?
Pic shows all the different things I've tried and the messages that it produced.
take a micro sd card and put it in
go into recovery and go down to advanced
repartition the micro sd card
reboot
put what evere you want to flash in the micro sd card and flash
take your sdcard out and use SD Formatter 3.0 to format it. Now try re-flash the new CWM.

I formatted it, it worked. Now to get it to stop aborting the roms I'm trying to install. Thanks guys
I have Miui newst version installed.. but then it got jammed.. i removed battery from phone and restarted.. anrdoid didnt start.. well i was going to make a fresh install with it.. but no.. i had no install package on internal sd anymore... and i cant get it there anyway.. any suggestion.. have cwm version 5.0.2.3 i cant mount ext. sd card in mounts and storages..says only error mounting /sd-ext! and i cant use mount usb storage coz it says E: Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)! is there anyway to get install zip to internal sd or install os from external sd?.. or do i throw this phone to a lake..?
Did you try to remove the SD Card from the phone and plug it in your PC directly (with some card reader)?
there is internal and external sd in this phone.... and cwm allows installing only from internal sd.. and i think u cant remove it from phone.. :/.. its internal..
The phone has a partition with 2GB which is used for internal sdcard storage and also have a slot to mount an external sdcard. And cwm recovery use external sd card.
Do you have an external sdcard mounted?
Someone please help me

Can you use the SD card on your PC via an adapter? It may have died on you.

Hey can u list your problem in a detail.

You want to mount SD card with recovery ? That feature doesnt work with CWM 5.
I m unable to mount my sd card in stock recovery, I am running a custom ROM. Please help

Wait, how do you exactly mount your sd card in STOCK recovery as there is no way you can mount anything in stock recovery? Use CWM in mounting.

Same as my previous suggestion... Use custom kernel with recovery in it... Like savie or Hells fusion (recommended)... Don't throw or format sd card. Try this. Later decide if u want to format
Recovering
You need not throw your sd card. Nothing happened big.
The format in sd card is not supported or is not compatible with the phone.
Steps to recover:
1. Insert your SD card
2. Goto Settings > SD Card and Phone Storage > Unmount SD Card
3. After unmounting, format the sd card.
4. If you have created multiple partitions on the phone, use a partition tool in pc to format your sd card.
5. Then remount the sd card again. If the sd card displays Blank in the status bar, you have to format it again.
6. After that connect your sd card to your computer and copy the recovery(CWM) zip files
Then try again to mount sd card.
If you cannot mount in ClockWorkMod, then you have to download the recovery that is compatible with your mobile.

Try again. If you still cannot access, send me a PM. I will help you.
*Happy to Help*
