If we can use a large TB sized or larger HD? I just plugged mine in & didn't get an error message as I usually did on anything below 4.1.2 JB my drive is 4 way partitioned with an active bookable partition. So I am not getting a good reading. Thanks!
USA, N8013 with OTA update
Hi i think its possible, does it have its own powersupply? Oh and if its ntfs format you might need root and install paragon ntfs app from play store to make it work. However, i remember trying to plug in my 40gb hdd and was partioned to 2 and it only recognized the first partition, so im not sure why. But i tried my 250gb hdd and it was recognized right away. Hope this helps

Salutations all;
My sd card became corrupted again and being as how I had no card reader with me at the time; only connected to the pc via usb, I googled how to use Terminal Emulator to fix it.
All my efforts to fix it that way have failed.
I had tried the fsck command from" http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/38745/check-and-fix-sd-card-errors-within-android-itself "
I fixed something I guess, because I can see it on the pc vs before when I couldn't. Using MiniTool today I discovered the system was RAW.
What I'm asking is, what did I do, How'd I do it, & most importantly; how do I fix it?
Can you format from the computer via the phone?

Yes, but have about three gigs of data I was trying to save, aside from that yeah, I can Format.
Anybody care to share some light on this???
I understand I can format the card, what I would like to know is how did I change the file system to raw via terminal emulator???
Surely there are those who understand terminal better than I, would any of you out there mind giving a word?
Thnx
Probably got corrupted in the filesystem repair due to wrong format. As for your data try software like recuva

Well, one of my hard disks had the same problem... I paid $80 to get my data back... and the hard disk, well, was trashed....
But you can try this-
http://www.easeus.com/resource/raw-usb-drive-recovery.htm
much appreciated , I used the Recuva & I was able to get the files back.
As for using terminal, any ideas on what I changed in the line format to change it over to a raw system?
I was using the cmnd lines from the link in my first post.
When i mount my ideos u8800x5 to the computer and try to copy a folder from the computer, i get this error msg "cannot copy search the web :The disk is write-protected. Remove the write-protection or use another disk". I have tried another disk but the same error msg. When i use a card reader the sd card is working ok. I have tried formatting the sd using fat 32 , reseting factory setting and erasing the sd card same error. How do i remove the write protection from the phone. My phone is rooted and i am using cm7.

hey.. try this..
1) connect your phone to the computer.. unmount sd card.. then remount it again..
if that doesnt work ... you could try this..
use a cardreader
1) copy all your data to pc ...keep it safe
2) Use the windows built-in chkdsk utility.
3)Open up command prompt (start->run->cmd.exe) and type
4)chkdsk /X /F <SD card drive letter>
eg:- chkdsk /X /F D: (d is my sdcard drive)
hope i helped!
Thank you for trying to help. The problem is not with the sd card, the sd card is working fine using card reader. I have tried using the same card with a different phone,and is also working fine. I might have triped a switch within the sd card slot or a program in the phone is preventing writing on the card. I have even tried to reflash the rom with no success. Any other idea?

I have tried both 2 and 3,have not succeeded. I have noticed that when I mount the phone,it mounts as CD drive instead of Removable Disk.
Device type : CD-ROM drives
Manufacturer : standard CD-ROMdrive
Location: on USB Mass Storage Device .
I have installed the (Huawei u8800 ICS ADB & MTP Drivers) . I can synch and copy using phone explorer but not directly to ( drive f: ). I believe if I can be able to format the drive when mounted to PC, my problem will be solved. Any idea how to go about it? Am using window XP and window 7.

you could format it from the phone.. in storage settings.. or you could use a cardreader.. connect to pc..and format it that way.. and cd drive is how the pc would show your phone.. if it isn't in usb storage mode.. so thats normal.. try the two things above.. but backup your data before you do
Then I'm back to square one. I had already tried formatting using factory settings, and phone explorer but the write-protect is still there. I will have to flash back the original rom and return the phone. Thanks for your help.

dude i doubt if its a problem with your phone!.. i think it maybe your sdcard!.. seriously.. did you try a card reader?? try a card reader.. and if you cant format the card then.. then its ur sdcard.. not the phone!
I have restored the original rom B138 which i had bucked up, the write protect error has vanished. When i mount the phone, two drives are detected (sd & internal mem) as removable disk, unlike before only one was detected as CD rom. Every thing is working fine. BUT When i flash back CM7 after full wipe and replacing the image folder, my problem returns. What am i doing wrong?

replacing image folder? means just replacing recovery or are you replacing something else?

flash cm7 with all three wipes and format,
check for sd card error... if it is still there.. then
Go to

Fsck_msdos
Delete & Replace with fsck_msdos from your official B138

some different roms and flashed this U8800V100R001C00B138SP04CUSTESTC205D001(Esthonia Elisa) . Which WIPED MY IMEI.
IMEI =0
IMEI SV=38
WI-FI MAC address=unavailable.
Now I can't use the phone because of the imei.
I have never bucked up my imei only roms, when i restore the bucked up roms; CM7, Oxygen or the B138 the imei reads 0.
Any help in restoring the imei will be greatly appreciated .

My imei issue has been solved after reading and doing as per this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45618257#post45618257
Now i have the WI-FI MAC address issue ,how to restore the address.
I have noticed the error msg is gone after installing CM10.2 By ilyaaa. The disc is now being recognized as removable not as CD ROM. I can now write on the disk without the error msg,though i haven't figured out why the other ROMs oxygen, miu, and CM7 had issue .

Phone is as it is when its earliar...

Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda app-developers app
when you format your sd card on your phone you will still have folders on there as they are default android folders
on phone goto
phone settings
sd card and phone storage settings
unmount sd card
format sd card
on pc
right click on the drive you wish to format
click format
set to fat32
format
you can just delete any files on your sd card too if you want to remove them
note - if you have a 2nd sd card partition you will need to delete this in mini tool and then expand the other partition into free space or delete both partitions and create a new single partition
note this will not format any data on your phone like contacts apps stored on phone internal memory etc
My sdcard memory before. Format is 5.30 GB
After format it's 7.39 GB.
But I remove sdcard from phone and again move SD card on phone. The memory is 5.30 GB that I earlier have ...and I can't delete data from. SD card.and not renamed it....can't get files from USB through pc ....
Is there any problem in that?

impossible - if you delete the partition and create a new partition and format the sd card with mini tool on pc all data will go
make sure you actually press the apply button - nothing will actually happen untill you confirm all the changes

if you can view sd card and copy file to it and it is readable then its not corrupted
its more likely user error - and without seeing what you are doing or looking at the sd card I cant comment further

Is it Write-Protected?
If it is try this Steps
U need to run cmd.exe,
CardReader
Insert your memory card in the Card Reader and plug it in the PC
Now, type the following in Command Prompt, pressing Enter after each command:
diskpart
list disk
select disk x (where x is the number of your USB flash drive – use the capacity to work out which one it is)
attributes disk clear readonly
clean
create partition primary
format fs=fat32* (you can swap fat32 for ntfs if you only need to use the drive with Windows computers)
exit

Try using cwm to format the sd card or use a different pc or plug the sd card in a card slot on pc and not through usb cable

just saying using reserved drive letters is not a good idea as windows could get confused - id change it to a letter of E or after
A and B are reserved for floppy drives
C is reserved for windows hard drive
D is reserved for cd rom drive
E and after is normally free for extra drives
might not make any difference but it may confuse 3rd party programes when it tries to identify it
