Why can't mount my SD/MMC card?

Hi,

    I am testing on am3517evm running gingergread, and I have a 4G sd card, I format it to fat32 in window, and when I plug it to am3517evm, the android notification tips "Damaged SD card.", but my card is good in fact.

    How to let android 2.3 recognize the sd card and mount it automatically? what is wrong with my operation?

 

Thanks,

Kevin

  • What does your /etc/vold.fstab entry look like, generally in our pre-built images we have 3 partitions and 3rd partition is mounted as data partition. If you are not following similar partition numbering then you have to change the fstab entry.

    Otherwise, FAT32 formatted SD cards should get detected.

  • Hi Khasim,

    My /etc/vold.fstab is originally like this,

    dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 3 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc0

    then I changed it to 

    dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard 1 /devices/platform/mmci-omap-hs.0/mmc_host/mmc0

    Now,  SD card get detected.

     

    Thanks,
