How to format?

Received my card, but I can't figure out how to format it. I have installed it in the phone, but can't figure out how to reformat it.

Suggestions?

Plug it into a pc and format it as FAT-32

I tried that earlier today while at the office, but it didn't give Fat32 as an option. IIRC, the only option was exFat, and the format failed when I tried using this option.

ATM, I'm at home without an sdcard reader. Any way to format it from within the phone itself?

Idk. I don't see an option for it. I thought if it wasn't formatted correctly, it would like notify you or something. Is it recognized in android?

RustyNailz · Jun 8, 2012

No. Looks like I'll have to find a way to format it as Fat32 from the work PC.

doesn't a custom recovery have format options?

RustyNailz · Jun 9, 2012

Yes. I'm running TWRP v2.1.1 and tried without success to format the card from there as well. It seems that I'm unable to mount the card, so the format fails.

I'm going to try it again later when I'm at the PC with the card reader. This time I'm going to download and use some software designed to format the sd cards.

No, the card isn't recognized and can't be mounted or formatted. Guessing it's due to being formatted as exFat instead of fat32.

Normally, I would have already been there earlier today. But I ended up spending several hours with my son in the ER, and now we're back home. I may head over there in the next hour or two if this rain ever lets up.

Was having headaches and leg pains, so doctor said to take him to the ER for evaluation. They found nothing wrong with him. Was put on seizure medication earlier in the week, and now he wants to sleep all day long.

P.S. No luck yet with the new SD card. I'll keep you updated.
