why sometimes when i made a new document in pocket word or notes, its not always appear suddenly?
sometimes i got to open another folder, then change to the "all folder" again to make the new doc appear?
or i got to close the app totally and reopen it again to make it appear? :x
I had that problem after I installed Calligrapher on my SD CARD.
if you have that uninstall it and put it back on main memory.
Short of that you need to rebuild the xda.
Dont forget to sync first.
i also found ou that we cant do the soft reset with the memory card inside it.
what dya' mean? I always do that. Have done it about a 1000 times and not had a problem with the memory card???!
i only take out my sdcard when i want to use it in my sdcard reader for my pc
otherwise it leave it in there and i softreset all the time
I think he's just playing mindgames!
well, thats what i found out with kingston 512 mb.
when you softreset with the card inside, you cant save the pocketword.
I would bet that there are few (if any) others who have this experience. I read and write to my SanDisk 1GB SD card, as well as the 512MB and 256MB cards I use for music, movies, etc. and the 128MB I use for backups, and SoftReset from time to time and have NEVER experienced the problems you relate and there is ALWAYS a card in the slot.
I would suspect your SD card (it is an SD card - not a MM card, right?) or the SDIO slot in your device. This is not normal!
maybe it's a kingston thing
tell me is the rw lock yellow ? some guy were talking about cards with yellow rw locks often had issues
another thing are the word files on the sd card or ?
yes it yellow, what i found is dont soft reset with that card inside, it will mess all of your system. otherwise it work great.
I totally agree with mindgames: when u soft reset with sd card inserted, u r looking for troubles
File explorer for example won't function properly and will freeze everytime u try to copy/paste/cut or delete.
Help! Storage Card suddenly not showing - dead?
Has anyone had problems with the Storage Card completely dying? I cannot read my 1GB miniSD card on my Wizard device at all any more. It started being weird yesterday but after a reset I was able to access the data, but today it is totally gone.
A 16MB one works fine. :? These cards don't generally die that easily do they?
Could this be a driver issue or something else so I can get my data back? I have tried many resets both with and without the card in place.
I've the same problem (I guess) with my card. I'm not able to read my card on the vario. When i inserted my SD card in a PC he cant read the card. When i start my PC with the card insered system hangs on loading windows.
When I restart my phone with the SD card inserted WIFI wont go on, do you have th same problem CJSnet ?
This looks like the SD disk is something like an (unreadable?) bootdisk ?
I had the same problem with a SanDisk 1GB card recently. I sent it back to the supplier and they replaced it.
Before my "Mini S" I had a "2i" and it was well known that it would "eat" cards. On that forum they compiled a list of "never eaten" cards and recommended staying away from anything not on the list.
I suspect the Wizard may have a similar problem.
i've also got a problem with my miniSD, sometimes it doesn't recognise the card. But when i remove it and re-insert a few times it does work again.
A common problem with the SD-cards is that their contacts are dirty, cleaning sometimes helps.
Thanks mmm_ok, can you provide a link to that list of 'never eaten' :lol: cards please?
Mine is an unbranded type from Viking, so that could be the reason.
zawoot, I had no problems with WiFi and the card inserted.
Have now solved it. When I loaded the card on a PC and ran chkdsk, some of the files were corrupt (plus the boot partition I expect). I copied the salvagable files to the PC, formatted the miniSD which took about an hour (!), and now the PPC can read it again. Now I just copy back the files from the PC, and the lost ones from a recent backup.
What a pain in the backside. HTC not fixing the 'eating cards' bug has cost me 3 hours of my life. What price technology!
SD card problem
I'm facing the same problem. The last thing I tried was format the SD Card
using Pocket Mechanic "Logical Format" - "do not use quick format", format it
two times and just that. Also, as a test, I'm not using the full SD Card
capacity, my SD has 1 G and at this time I'm using 700M and since 10 days ago
everythiong is fine. As an additional test I leaved the battery goes to a
very low level and reseted the device to see it it corrupt the data .. but
is still ok.
My 2GB Adata myflash card has done this. I'm so mad, it has to go all the way back to china for repair.
This is really wierd behaviour for a phone. HTC in all its shoddy glory.

SO is there any other issues after you did the format?
I have an ATP 1Gb MiniSD and sometimes my MDA just said that it can't execute an application (that's installed to the miniSD card) because it was "usigned". When I run Resco Explorer, I noticed that the card is NO LONGER shown (???). So I took out the card, re-inserted it and it's now shown in Resco Explorer as "Storage Card2" ! So of course none of the program works since the links (in registry especially), pointed to "Storage Card", not the one that ends with 2. So my solution (for now) is to just shutdown the device, wait for a few minutes, then turn it on again.
I have had 2 cards from mobymemory 1gb and now 2gb - not one problem run well. Can highly recommend mobymemory the use single density cards or something that many of the other manufactures don't use. my advice stay away from cheap cards.
I used a backup utility my card died, and windows could not open it, I reformatted on my digital cam and it works again. It's the software loaded on it.
My MiniSD card popped out of its slot spontaneously last night. Ever since my Qtek 9100 would not recognise it any longer. It still worked on my card-reader attached to my PC. In the end I decided to format the card (not quick format) and now my Wizard recognises the storage card again. Losing all my downloaded attachments during the process. FYI It is a SanDisk 1GB MiniSD card.
sandisk 1g card is almost 2-yrs old and was first for typhoon and now serves faraday and wizard and just started acting wierd on wizard. every so often device does not read card upon waking. pulling it out and reinserting fixes it but i've moved programs to device. poo!!!
Storage Card seemed dead
I had a simuliar problem with my original qtek 1.6 rom until I upgraded to the latest imate 2.17.
Having worked 5-10 minutes with wi-fi, the storage card became invisible and unaccessible. To make it visible once again it was necessary to soft reset the device.
This and some other problems disappeared once I upgraded to 2.17.
Hope this help
Hi guys... I have the worst problem since I bought this brilliant device: I was playing with a game (installed on the mini SD), and when I tried to save it told me I had not enough storage space. Puzzled, I ended the game and went back to the normal pda functions...just to find out my SD is not recognized anymore. Zero, nada. Disappeared. Tried to get it out and in again (a million times), and I don't even get the sound I used to get. I tried fitting the minisd to the sd adapter and put it in an old zire: the card works!Everything is there. But the wizard won't recognize it anymore. Tried soft reset and it didn't help... Not so keen on hard resetting unless it is the only option but...I'm dazed...It doesn't see it anymore.I admit I was playing the game at 240 mhhz (overclocked) but I had played it a million times already and everything was smooth... PLEASE HELP!
same here im having this problem. it's annoying as hell!

I have had the problem of the memory card seemingly disappearing.
On checking closer, I noticed I had 'Storage Card' and 'Storage Card2'
Storage Card had one file on it and everything else was still on Storage Card2.
By deleting Storage Card abd soft reset, all was restored.
This has happened a couple of time.
If this happens to you, make sure you delete the right one.
Storage card
I've never unlocked the extended rom (Storage_card_2), so i have just Storage Card, a 1 Gig Sandisk mini SD. Still, it dissapears a couple of times a day, and i must soft reset my wizard to appear again. Very, very frustrating
Missing data
Something similar has happened to mine as well....
I turned my PDA on and accessed the storage card just like I do on any other day, only to find that all of the files had disappeared!! Everything had gone - but when I went into the memory setting, where it tells you how much space is used on the card it is still showing up as being half full i.e. the data is still there but not showing up on explorer!!
What is this all about??!! It has never happened to me before!!
Just wish I could offer an explanation on how to fix this...
You can probably read those files in Windows. This memory card disappearing problem seems to occur frequently with Wizard. Lookslike some program keeps corrupting the memory card.
Format the card in Windows and put it back in your phone, it will most likely work.

If you format the card, surely it will wipe everything that was on there in the first place..?!
There must be a way of retrieving those missing files somehow without resorting to formatting...
The weird thing is, today I transferred a single file from my desktop to the Sd card (whilst in my XDA) and suddenly some of the missing files appeared...?!
Now to find the rest of them....
I would love to have storage card 2 or something like that, but all I get is...the same behaviour I'd get if NO sd was in. I don't want to hard reset UNLESS somebody can confirm me this works...I am so desperate, it kinda looks like the sd reader is dead...all of a sudden! Please guys help...
I hard resetted and still it doesn't work...I'll take it to a shop to repair...I am totally disappointed!
I had this, the card came back after I just placed it in a card reader, browsed it on a pc, then replaced it in the phone.

What is do
It happens to me too - if I go into file explorer, I see storage_card and storage_card_2. The contents of storage_card_2 are exactly those of my SD. If I delete storage_card, remove and re-insert my SD, storage_card_2 disappears and storage_card is as it should be...
It was an sd problem...as soon as I have formatted it started to work again...
hope that sorts it for you guys if you have this annoying problem...
i have delited a program from my MSD Card and from that point my PDA does not recognize my storage card, the card is recognized by my computer, i have tryed other cards and the PDA does not recognise any of them,
does any one can help me please
1st try to clean out the sd card slot in case of something in there causing trouble. Use a can of compressed air to blow out any dust or anything. The reason I said use compressed air is because just blowing can leave moisture on the contacts causing corrosion sooner or later.
Backup the sd card then reformat it FAT32, put everything back on then see what happens.
If this doesn't work, see if it registers another sd card. If it does then it could be a problem with the card, if it doesn't then you might need to HR.
If you used backup software, now would be the time to use it...
Cheers...
I agree 100000000x times with this guy. I have owned my pre-owned Hermes for about two weeks and I was about to cry because ever since I have owned it, the sd card slot never worked. I even tried multiple cards and nothing worked. I was about to give up hope Once I tried using a can of air and cleaned the slot out thoroughly, the Hermes started recognizing the cards. I'm happy as hell now
I had the same problem, I just now placed a different storage card reads it, and it is playing.
It is palying this brand: "kingston SDCO2G" 2GB.
Hi BA seems to be playing up. Started to not recognise the storage card even if I try another, then sometimes it will. Have tried a soft reset, but reluctant to try a hard reset because will have to reinstall all again. Any advise please?
Thanks,
Al.
OS WM6.
That happens to me many times. First it does not recognized the original SD card that was on it so I thought it's the SD card. But the SD card was recognized by my desktop when I plugged it into it. So I tried another SD on my BA and same thing it does not recognized it. So it's the card reader on the BA itself. I opened up my BA, check the pins on the card reader, tried to clean it with just a dry cloth, I carefully bended each pin to make sure it will touch the pins on the SD and after that it recognized all the SD cards that I have. Though it's not advisable to open your BA cuz you might kill it. Hoe this helps! Cheers!
I actually had the same issue while I was using the original releases of WM5 and WM6, but sometime down the line I guess someone fixed it. It would randomly stop seeing the card for no apparent reason... never found out why, but after upgrading to 6.1, the problem was gone...
weird...
its pins issue, i had it too until i clean everything up
