XDA II does not recognize any SD card

My XDA II doesn't recognize SD cards..I changed the cards (although working in card reader with my PC), I hard rest the XDA II, re downlaod the new ROM, and nothing happining ..My problem started after downlaoding the new ROM and unlocking my XDAII with the tool in this site!! at the same time I don't know if this is related!! please help meeeeeeeeeeee!!! I tried every thing ..urgent help needed please

This is O2 reply for the problem..
I am sorry to here you are having difficulties with your XDA2. It would appear you have already tried everything I could suggest (hard reset, downloading the ROM again etc.) It would seem this is a hardware fault. Please call the XDA repair centre on 08081003427 with whom you will be able to discuss repair/replacement of the unit.
and this was my reply...
Hi again
Thank you for your e.mail..But it cant be hardware problem ! because I had the same problem with my original XDA II, send it for repare, after THREE MONTHS!!!!! !!! no one could tell me were is my phone and after a very long fight I was givin a new XDA II..downlaoded the new ROM and you know the rest!!! please advice urgentlyyyyy
Any suggestions !!!!!?????

bah O2 schmO2 :evil:
Does your XDA II even see the SD card?
With your device booted up and on the today screen, if you inserted an unformatted SD card you would be prompted to format it. Does this happen?

Thankyouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu for trying to help...
When I insert an SC card I have this massege on the screen"" do you want to try to reformat this storage card to make it readable? this will permanently delet any files on the card." i press YES ..then another massege saying" this storage card has been successfully formatted!!!!
but the XDAII dosent recognise the card any more..like it is not there!!! when reinsert the SD card same thing happens all over again!! I really dont know what to do anymore..any suggestions pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas

Have you tried different SD cards? Yours might just be faulty or incompatible.

this card was working perfectly befor the ROM upgrade!! But I still did try different cards!! and same problem!! and the same card is working perfectly in other devices!!

mmm OK well I'm out of ideas, sorry . Unless you try one of the tools available on somewhere like PocketGear. If I think of anything else, I will post it.

It is me again but I was not loged in..

By the way may I aske why the Bluetrek G2 Headset??

I actually don't use it much right now so can't say how good or bad it is

I found it ! The SD card switcher !!!

I posted a few days ago this message : http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=38829
I asked for a sd card switcher. But no response.
I searched all around the web but in vain.
So I decided to search on my hard drive because I had one for smartphone.
It wasn't difficult to find it and I would try to install it on my ppc (SPV M3000) and... it works very well !!!
It's very useful for battery life. Switch on/off the SD as you want. This soft can't be easier than it is.
Install the .CAB file by executing it on the ppc and find the shortcut of the app in \Start menu\Accessories folder.
Enjoy !

Sorry, didn't see your message. Could have written this for you

didnt work on mine, cab wont even install. any1 to try extracting it for me??

Note, it gets reset when you eject and reinsert an SD card.

almost al my programs and documents are on my 1GB mini-SD card, so I don't think this will be very usefull...
thx anyway!!
CIAO!

i'm at work at the moment (so can't try till tonight)
but, what happens if you have set the camera to save to the card and it's switched off?

Hey, I'm searching how to set the camera to save to the card?
I think if the card is switched off, it will save automatically to the internal memory because of my smartphone it was like this !
answer for the camera please.
THX

You can change that easily in the camera app itself. See :
Teach me: How to save camera pictures directly in MEM. CARD?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=39190

i try this on mine.. no luck... cant save battery life then..

Works like a charm here

Did you guys find the sd card was re-enabled on re-inserting?

1. Make sure your card is not locked by the "lock" switch (like on sd cards)
2. Put your card in card reader on your PC and make sure that your MapSettings.cfg is NOT "read only" that should work and it is nothing to do wit TT version.
3. If #2 fails than with your card in your card reader on your PC select all the files, rightclick to properties and than select "read only" to make all files read only and click apply. Than do the same again but deselect read only this time and click apply. That should work. Don't wory about any system files because thaey will not change status.
Hope this helps

eureka !!!!
it works....the.cfg file was locked..
thanks guys and a very useful tip for all !!!

Have you tried removing it, soft resetting without it in then slide it back in again with the device on.

Can a computer read it? If so copy the info off of it to the computer format the SD card and copy the info back. This does not answer the question of why this is happening but it may get the data back for you.

Keeps rebooting with new microsd card

Hi , i just got a new sandisk 4gb microsd. The card works fine except when i softreset, it wont go to the homescreen, it will keep rebooting without an end!
Ive been reading on the internet and for some people the solution was to renaming the file omap850_sdhc.dll to omap850_sdhc.dll.old in the windows folder.
But on my htc p4350 with the official vodafone wm6 , that file seems to be part of the rom and cant be edited ! Ive tried totalcommander, resco explorer.
Does anyone have a solution for this or is familiar with this problem??
Thanks

What happens if you take the card out, reboot, then put it back in?

That works , but thats just not what i want.

Hi Phusio,
I have the same problem. Have you found a solution yet?

the windows sdhc card driver probably messed up...that or you installed something on the card that should've been installed on the phone..and now your windows is confused...hehe
there are several solutions... i don't know any that work on all devices
it's been discussed many times... try searching for boot-loop or stuck at splash screen... something along those lines.
the easiest solution is to hard reset...
if you're card is clean that's even better cuz then you can organize it very nice and neat..

Doing a hard reset is not an option for me.
Several other threads have discussed the option of deleting/renaming the omap650sdhc.dll followed by a soft-reset. But this dll is in rom and cannot be deleted. Tried Total Commander and Resco Explorer, but no chance.
Guess I will wait until I'm fed up enough to do a hard-reset.

i had that same problem with my new MicroSD 4GB card.
All i did was:
Turn the phone off and take battery + SIM out.
Turn in your MicroSD card and start it up.
When it's fully booted take the battery out without turning the phone off and put the sim back in.
Then turn it back on and hope for the best.
It worked for me.
