I have realised that the data on my SD card has vanished. I thought that I would be able to recover it using Ontrack data recovery but when I inserted the card into my all in one card reader it stated that the card was not formated. The only recover I was able to do did not reinstate the filenames.
I then inserted the card into my phone and discovered that there are a few folders visible and that there are a few files inside.
why am I unable to see these with the card reader? I am not using encryption....
I am running WM6 Black 2.01
Cheers

Hi,
I recently bought a 4GB SDHC card for my Hermes (Josh's V15 WinterRom Light). Everything seemed to work just fine, but after a couple of hours data on the card started to randomly disappear. File explorer shows empty directories. When I insert the card into PC with Linux I can read the data, but the system reports corruption and all the files are read-only.
I tried lowering TransferBlockSize in the registry but this only delayed the data loss. Is there anything else I can do or is this card faulty?
bump!
bump!
anyone?
Could be the card, especially if you had another sd card and didn't have this problem. I'd do a backup on PC, format sd card FAT32 again an then restore the info. If it still seems to leach the data away then I'd get the sd card replaced with a new sd card.
Cheers...
Also use a can of compressed air to clean out the sd card slot on your Hermes, may help, may not but it will eliminate a suspect that the sd card reader needs to be cleaned.
I did format the card several times with FAT32. It was only a matter of time for data loss to appear.
Hermes worked fine with 1GB SD card. I did not have any problems using the 4GB SDHC in my laptop but then again maybe it wasn't used frequently enough.
Hello everybody, I'm new here and I'm having a strange problem with my Hermes.
Sometime ago I downloaded the slide2unlock cab and installed it. Then I removed it for some reason. Last week I inserted my sd in the computer and it asked me to format the card. There was no way to get into the sd and I lost all my data.
Now, after having formatted my sd, the device is continually hanging and when I put it in standby it always turns on automatically. Most of the times it also doesn't recognize the sd card and I have to reboot.
Can anyone help me, please?
Did you reformat the sd card FAT32? Its the preferred format but they seem to come formatted FAT by default.
Check to see if the sd card is still being detected by the PC, if it isn't then its time to get a new sd card.
Had you installed any apps on the sd card that might be causing problems.
Not from the sd card but I have had apps that, though I'd installed to the sd card, had installed the exe file onto my Hermes and a heap of data files onto the card.
Otherwise, might be time for a Hard reset...
Tanks for the fast answer. The sd card is formatted to FAT (not FAT32) and now is working in the computer.
Regarding programs installed in the sd, the problem could be exactly the slide2unlock, but I've removed it sometimes ago.
Only other thing to do wopuld be to do a hard reset. !st backup up your contacts to the sd card with spb backup(has a demo of 5 backup/re-installs). Needs to registered but you can at least backup contacts and messages then re-install after HR.
Hard reset should fix all your problems.

i cant access my 8gb card anymore
it shows as there briefly and then dissapears. i cant access it via the pc usb cable either.
ive tried another sd card (2gig) and it works fine. so im sure the issue lies with the card.
is there any application which may overcome this issue?
I have similar problem with my 8GB card. With original (2GB) card everything is ok.
When i access certain folders the Storage Card disappears from file explorer?!?
The only way to reapear is to restart the phone.
The only solution i found is to format the card.
Then everything is Ok for couple of weeks.
After that again corruption in the file system appears.
use the panasonic formatter.. it should fix it
Dear All.
I have searched the web for this problem but couldn't find a similar problem or a solution
My wife got a galxy S2 and I was trying to transfer to her some of the appz that I had on my SD card (.apk files) I installed the SD card in her phone and was able to access it under my files under external_sd card.
The phone got some problems and I had to format it to factory reset. Now the phone does not want to read the SD card at all.
I can't see the SD card on my phone and cant even see it when I plug the phone to the PC I only see the internal memory. I have tried another SD and still the same.
When I go to settings>>>storage
It says insert SD Card for mounting under mount SD card

Have multiple Moto E4s XT1767PP unlocked Verizon phones. Needed to replace one so I moved the SIM card and the 128GB SD card formatted as Internal Storage and containing many pictures and other data to the new phone.
Phone booted and recognized T-Mobile SIM card but displayed a message that the Samsung SD card was not recognized.. Contacts seemed to be there and the new phone made and received phone calls.
Went into Settings/Storage and was asked to format the SD card. Did NOT FORMAT the SD card as I did not want to destroy all the data recorded on it.
Shut down the phone, removed battery and SD card and inserted another SD card. Replaced battery and rebooted the phone. After it came on went to Settings/Storage and formatted the new blank SD card as Internal Storage,
How can I get the original SD card and its data to be recognized by the new XT1767PP phone?
If not possible how can I get the data backed to my Google.com account to be transferred to the new phone?

The only device that will recognize and read and decrypt that SD card is your old phone.
