I know this has been discussed before but i can't find anything in a search. I have a 1GB corsair mini sd memory card and it's worked great so far...but today all of a sudden my wizard won't pick up that the memory card is installed.
check if it works in a card reader

definitely works in the card reader...but the Wizard refuses to recognize it. No problems through the card reader though.

Hello I have had a look at the wiki and still could not find the answer to my problem, so I decided to post.
I seem to be having trouble with my new Memory card for my TyTn. I just bought a 4gb microSDHC from the shop. I put a single song on it and put it in my phone. When I checked the memory it says this:
“Total storage card memory: Not installed”
Does this mean there is something wrong with the card or do I need to install something.
Cheers
Are you running a wm6 rom? high capacity sd is not supported on a stock tytn. Check the Windows Mobile 6 forum and look for a cooked rom that supports SDHC. I recommend the schaps 3.60a cooked rom. Been runnin it for a couple weeks now and im pleased with the speed/stability.
Thanks for your response Surrept, I have installed the schaps 3.60a-0823_full and the phone looks great now…but I still have the same problem with the memory, any other suggestions?
Umm, should I take the memory card back to the shop, and if so what is the best one that will work with my phone?
Can anyone help please

Last thing to try:
Reformat the card using the PC Fat 16 or 32
Check size shown on PC is correct.
Try again on your Hermes.
If it does not show up, reset with the card in place.
Try again.
If it fails again - do a hard reset with the card in place.
If all that fails, then return to the shop. There is no more you can do. Since the card is not faulty, you will be a bit at their mercy. It will be a gamble to get another 4gb card, a 2 may be safer. However if it's the contacts in the phone then no card will work correctly.

Thanks!
My friend had a look at the phone and said he had no idea what to do, he handed it back and the card just started working! Wow! Is it great how that works some times.
UNBELIEVABLE!!! my Storage Card of my Touch HD just disappearred! it is the original 8 GB SD card that acompanied with the phone;
both in terms of device and PC platform, its just gone and left no reason,
I'm so f* disappointed... anyone has the same problem here??
btw, like usually what i do for my phone:
I had flashing ROM for several times today, but I don't think that causes trouble;
and I've also changed my start Menu icon, cos the original one is the way too drab;
on the other hand, I did 'clear storage' for my blackstone as well..
whatever, I don't want to lose my data on that SD card, any help will be grateful!!!
Is the card not recognized, or is it just empty?

its not recognized, there is no 'storage card' folder where it is used to be, so I can't even format my sd card, despite some said this should recover this problem...

sorry, a card reader?
usually when i connect my phone to PC a dialogue will be popped up on the phone's screen and ask me if i want to choose 1 of 3 modes of connection, and I normally choose the synchronous one (can't remember what it's called);
on the other side, I can directly open the storage card folder when the phone and PC were connected
and within phone's memory management, it shows storage card memory not installed...

You plug it into your USB port. If there is no problem with the card outside your phone, then you might have to hardreset the phone.
My original 8GB card also died and wouldn't be recognised in any device. I have replaced it and all is ok so far.

Hi JR_de,
I really appreciate your help with regard to my problem, but I don't have this equipment atm, so I can't ensure whether its my phone's problem or the Micro SD card's.
the card just seems unreasonably disfunctioning, I think I have to return the phone to my contract seller and see if there is any sulotion to this.....

you mean you took the card out of the phone, and re-insert it and then it starts to working properly?
just did once hardreset, but unfortunately the problem still exists..

No i got a new one, the old one is totally dead.
there is an option under settings > connections > USB to PC, from there u can decide if you want the card to appear as a storage card on pc, or connect via active sync, which would show the card under pc and phone, if you select "disk drive" under that option, it will not be visible inside the phone under file explorer, it states it there, unless its somthin else

I usually activesync over Bluetooth hence phone set to Disk Drive when connected through USB. I can still access storage card, so I assume the card probably will need a reformat using a card reader.

thanks for your information, but I'm always choose the 'activesync' one, so I think this may not the cause of it

Is that possible to get one card reader from local phone accessories store(something like that)? and how much it gonna costs?
This is now my 3rd micro sd card that stops working.
In one year 3 cards stopped working 1 with blackstone and 2 with Leo.
What is wrong with this type of cards. Is it normal that they break so often????
Any tools you recommend to let them go live again (the card is totally unrecognized by the LEO)
Now I put the microSD card with adapter on computer, and it reads it but is very very slow. Any software tool recommended?
p.s. trying now to scan/fix/reformat and so on
many users are reporting that hd2 are corrupting memory card. mine too was corrupted. the problem is with hd2 itself. i was using sandisk 8gb in xperia x1 for 3 years without having any problem. my card lasted only 1 week in the hd2
it most definatley seems to be a problem, in which the HD2 is making memory cards dead. Regardless of their Size, Class and Brand

any user got this problem from other brand than sandisk?
yeah, am having the same problem here. when i try to copy data onto the card from my PC, it takes ages and then when i pop it into my HD2, it doesnt read the files. i have formatted the card over and over again. i have just purchased another 16gb card. i will let you know if i encounter the same problem again.
I haven't suffered a card failure in my HD2 yet but have with other phones and iPAQs. SanDisk and Lexar replaced the cards in question but didn't say what had happened to them.
I have had success recovering cards with Rescue Disk Pro but most failures like this cannot be fixed.
Ive been using the Sandisk 16gb mobile ultra class 4 card on my Leo and its been perfect since i bought it, fast and realible. Works just as well on my HD 1.
mine 16gb works like a charm.
p.s. flash cards tend to get corrupted if you dont use "eject" feature. at least sometimes it had happend that, not "ejecting" the usb flash, would result in complete data loss./

You are completely right, ive had a couple of incidents with my HTC HD and HTC HERO, where by altering the data of the sd card while it was out of the phone, it would corrup the information on the device, and not let me install any new programs, hard reset :S andd on my Hero constant safe mode :S
Anywho, Flunik is correct it would be much safer to eject safely from the computer, before, it might just save ou those sd cards.
I noticed that my card wouldn't work properly when it was formatted on a PC!
If I let the Leo format the card it runs fine!!
i am now on my fourth 8Gig micro card this on is trancend and the other three are sandisk i was using the phone this morning fine i have just gone to use it again less than an hour later and it wants me to format i have checkd the card in the phone settings and it says no sd card installed any ideas as i am getting narked off with paying out for new cards every few months
I am having a similar problem. I am on my second card and I have had random photo's corrupt then disappear. ??? I don't know why. Any Ideas?
I use a Duracell card and have never had any problems, did you format the cards before first use ? ... have you tried to format the cards that are not reading.
I work with sd cards all day loading o/s and apps to industrial tocuhscreens and it's very rare to get a totally trashed card.

if that works then you could insert it back into the hd2 and try to use the htc format software again.
This is the first time I insert the memory into my Galaxy Tab 7.7

I try to put my Sandisk(16GB), Sandisk (8GB) and Toshiba card(16GB), both cannot recognize...
I had formatted both card on computer (FAT32), SAME!!
The cards can recognize on my computer...
Is there any problem on my Tab?
Thanks

I have exactly the same problem.
Some news?, has already solved the problem?

If its happening with several different cards, than it is almost surely something wrong with the tablet itself. I would recommend doing a factory reset, and maybe test the cards on other devices (cell, etc) to make sure that the cards are good. If the cards are good, and it still happens after a factory reset then you should look into repair, or replacement. (If its still in warranty, or return period)
