Its just another formating tool, only windows may have problem formating large SD cards which this would be able to handle . Formating your SD card will give you a CLEAN installation, and can also be done by your phone... menu> settings>privacy> format or in CWM too

[SOLVED][Q] Media files on SD card

i have been using nand/zip android roms since the beginning but 2 days ago i got a disturbing issue and i tried many nand/zip roms both froyo and ginger with no luck
whenever i unmount then remount the sd card , gallery and music applications stop recognizing my media files
i currently work around this by copying all media files to new locations but this is really disturbing
can any one assist me please
I'd try backing up the SD, formatting it, then putting your files back on and seeing if the problem persists first

I already tried that ... and it did not work
come on guys
i really need assistance here
Does rebooting fix it?
No it does the same problem as if I unmounted the card
I also tried "sdrescan" application and it returned with the same problem
Please i need the solution
Try the "Multi Mount" app.

either that or use a program to give it a full thorough format, not just a quick one
thorough format didn't help
FIXED
Using the program "[email protected] Kill Disk" i "Killed" my SDcard and the formatted it in android and now everything is fine
Thanks for any one who might have tried to help me

So you basically did a proper format like already advised. You obviously didnt do a proper oen before and maybe used windows standard full format etc.
In future if you wish to do a proper format of a SD card use Panasonic SD Card Formatter with following settings...
FULL (ERASE ON)
Size adjustment ON

I didn't know about this "Panasonic" program , although i did more than 4 hours of searching both in xda and google
anyway , i did try a proper format using a tool from site sdcard.org -or something like that- and it did take about the same amount of time with this "[email protected] kill disk" so I am not sure
anyway, the good thing is that it is now working
thanks anyway
hope you mentioned this program earlier

[PROBLEM] Corrupt SD Card - Plz Help

Hello i have a 16gb Sandisk Class 2 SDHC card
I tried various things. Like in CW recovery i tried to partition the card.
I also tried to move apps this way http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1079256
Nothing works on my card. I plugged in the card to my laptop and sometimes its shown in my computer and sometimes it doesnt.
In minitool it shows as bad disk and sometimes as FAT32.
I am so confused. Is there any way to reset my card the way it came from the factory ?
I tried formatting it tons of times and it isnt formatting correctly.
Maybe it has bad sectors or sth.
Please help me guys

had to me once..!!!
this is what i did!!!
I was using mini tool v5.something( it was showing bad disk for me)
I updated it to v6!!
then i saw my disk in mini tool 6. I then deleted that partition and made ext4 and swap partition and fat32.
Then when i clicked on apply it said "the disk is in use and cannot be formatted, you need to restart your pc. Mini tool will automatically apply the changes"(something like this)
Then i restarted my laptop and minitool started before my windows boot.
And then the sd card was back to normal..!!
try it out..!!
Hope it helps!!

Have you tried a different sd card? maybe your device faulty and i assume you mean Kingston and not Kingstone, if it is kingstone then it is fake.

There is nothing in usbdriveA. Maybe because it is not exist in the mnt folder. It's in the storage/usbdriveA but it contain nothing. You sure you have a 4.2.2 android system?
And if I have this problem, how can I fix it?

Because FAT have a file size limit which is 4 GB. And a 1080p Blu-Ray movie is not 4GB.

Galaxy Tab A OS Deleted

Hey so I was trying to install a port of lineage on my Galaxy Tab A 2019 and accidentally deleted the OS and now when I turn it on it just boosts to TWRP how can i fix this (P.S when i try copying file to the tablet from the computer it doesn't work)
More information needed. What device do you have? Can you link the TWRP you used as well as the LineageOS port? What exactly is happening when you try to transfer files via USB?
Yes I will try to find the links
And when I transfer data in windows the green bar doesn't move and I had reinstalled every driver I could think of

MTP can take a while to transfer files. Does your tablet have a microSD card slot?

You may have to format (not wipe) data and reboot into TWRP to get MTP working properly
Wait can sim card slots read micro sd?
