SD card free memory incorrect

I have a 256Mb SD card that suddenly reported itself as having only 40Mb free when the total of stored files was only 16Mb.
I had to reformat to reclaim the lost space.
Has anyone else experienced this with SD cards and, if so, what it the likely cause?

well file explore dont really display hiddenfiles so the card could have all kinds of those
other file managers like total commander display all files

hi. I don't have XDA 2 but I think it happen to most most ppc 2003 OS because you are install some software that do not fully support or not support wm 2003. ( it happen to me on h5555, h5400,e405) So you need to hard reset a few times.

Sd problems continued....
High
Well i have a similar problem, but could solve it with a soft reset.
Now i have another problem..... I dont know how, but my card is.... i dont know how to explain. let me start from the beginning.
When i got my SPV M1000, i also got a new SanDisc SD 256 MB.
I installed cuple o programs :
PHM ( Pocket Hack Master ) main memory
Pocket Mechanic Main Memory
Stuntman Evolution Sd Card
Crazy Cart Sd Card
just to give you some exaples.
I then copyed the exe files and a X back up on my card. to have them with me if needed.
After biing happy for a half week ( experimenting with PHM and Pocket Mechanic) and a lot of playing with my device, all of a sudden, my SD card was wiped out!!!
It was all gone!!!!!
I tryed to repair/reformat/restor with pocketmechanic but nothing.
Everythin was simply not there anymore ( im talkin about 30 meg of data!!!
Active sync tells me " unavailiable " when i try to install to the SD card, and when i chose to do it anyway.... it works.
Files get istalled just fine on my card.
Now for the interessting part.
Crazy Cart just stopped working!!!
" Cannot find "crazycart" or one of its components.
Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are availiable"
is the text i get when i try to start it.
Its happenig again...... its starting to ,lose files??
has anybody expirienced the same or similar ?
is my card broken eaven though POCKETMECHANIC TELLS ME ALL IS FINE?
Any help would be coooooooool
thanx
peace

tomtom and navigator erased off of mini

Well let me just say this site is really fab! I have learnt so much from viewing on here.. thatnks
Being the absolute plonker I am , I did a hard set , taking my sd card out, thinking that would save my tomtom and sat nav but alas it has gone! the maps and files are still all on my card. BUt on the mini it has gone. is there any apps that will make it work again?

well just to catch u up to speed..... upon reflection.. when I look on the sd card all the stuff is still there. app, maps, license, ...... it is just not in the program list on my mini.. how can I get it back to there?thanks

qhen u first installed it, did u install to ur sd card, or to ur phone? If u installed to ur phone, then u cant get it back, if u installed to ur sd, den maybe only da shortcut is missing. Try opening the tomtom file somewhere in ur sd (most likely a file ending in .exe), and maybe it'll work.

when I first installed it i did so to the sd card. I have tried the app in the sd storage and it starts then shuts down. I must have erased a link to it from the phone.. or a driver..
at least I know it is still there. just need to figure out how to get the program into the phone somehow.. any suggestions?

Not dealt with TomTom, but as you have maps and license already, maybe this thread will help.
Backup your card as it is and then follow this thread. I know its for a different phone but the base WM is the same.

the app itself is erased, no matter whereto you install it, some files are always written to your internal memory (to the windows directory). so you have to reinstall the app again!!!! just run the cabfile in folder 2577 again

Yep! that will do. (unless you have deleted it cause it bugged you everytime you reset your phone) DOH! Smiles.

I have done it!!!
i went into the 2577 on my card and reinstalled the cab to the device..
fab!!
I love it when things go right.. that and I am a stubborn ass and would have spents endless nights getting it to work... ahhhhhhh.. thanks to you all...xxx

heloo folks. does the tomtom that could be use on the wizard hace realtime navigation, i mean while driving will i see that icon that represents my local moving on the map?

Switched from iphone-Please help.

I purchased Telstra HD2 with US 830 3g band and then Hard SPLd it and flashed 1.66 Leo HTC Rom.
I have been now unable to locate or reinstall IGO8 navigation software from the microsd card. It was fine with telstra ROM.
I now do not have the ability to use windows marketplace.
Any programs that can I can install to further improve this beautiful phone?
Thanks.

Is that because the Windows Marketplace doesn't work, or because it isn't installed?

It started working!
I retried downloading and it worked!
Any ideas on the igo8 that is on my micro SD card?
Thanks

When you say you are unable to locate or reinstall IGO8 navigation software from the microsd card do you mean that its not on the storage card anymore or that you get an error when trying to install it?
Mark.

chances are you have the maps on the storage card and the program was integral with the rom your hd2 was using.. unless you can find it as a cab file i would say your not going to get it again.. you could always look at getting something like tomtom, garmin or co pilot.. there not real expensive but you could always get them through aternative sources if you know where to look!
as for ms marketplace, just re download the cab file, google marketplace and the link is easily available!

the file seems to be there on my microsd card. I eject and put it back in its slot expecting it to get reinstalled but that is not happening.
I guess I am a fool when it comes to finding stuff. I will truly appreciate if you can help.
Thanks.
I am a doctor, I'll give medical tips for free

Hey there, doctor here too. Make sure to get offline uptodate on your HD2! If you're lucky you'll be able to get it via the institution you work for....

igo auto installation works only when you have a folder in your storage card with the name 2577 and in that map a file called autorun.exe
if you have a folder with iGO8 on storage card ...see if there's a iGO.exe in it.
press on it and igo runs

microsd card destroyed by flashing rom?

hello everyone.
i have a problem and i hope you guys can help me by sharing your idea's / thoughts.
the problem is that my Sandisk 8gb class 2 isnt recognised by anything anymore.. here is my story what led to this event.
i was going to flash a new rom. so i removed sim and sd card (removed my card becouse i was using mtty task 29 with radio and was affraid it would remove the data on there too.) anyway after that was done i flashed EnergyROM with max sense. but it was the different max sense that i was hoping for so i flashed to energyrom 17th march with cookie shortly after. i installed some programs from storage card.. seemed to work fine. i plugged it in my computer as a disk drive, put some programs on it. it was busy and then it disappeared. it wouldnt show up on the phone to so i soft reset it. still nothing.. i hard reset and it still was gone.. then i put it in a sd adapter and into my laptop. wouldnt show there too. so can it be that it got ****ed up by the rom? (becouse there are other ppl having this issue)
any help would be welcome..

You've mentioned in your post that it stopped working whilst connected to your computer, so how would it be the ROM causing the issue?

i am not sure about that but there are 2 other people i saw in the energyrom threat posting about the same subject. (here and here) since there is not much help about the subject there and im not sure its even rom related i came here to ask for help.
i read somewhere that it could be possibly fixed by putting the card for 2 hours in the freezer. but that didnt work for me..

Hello Jamieeeee,
I couldn't agree you more ... ! I have exactly the same encounter as you. My Sandisk 8G card is corrupted soon after flashing EnergyRom Maxmanila for a few hours (Before flashing, I removed my sim and sd card). Then, I put the card in three different computers hoping that I could recover the files but failed. Still searching for resolutions!

Could this be hd2 or sd card's problem?

your hd2's came with an 8 gig? mine came with a 16 gig. sweet!
yeah, that sux tho. did you try reformating the card?

the 16gb sd card that came with this phone seems very cheap.. when i tried to copy a few GB of music and a couple movies on mine (through activesync) it kept crashing..
the phone would say it recognized a sd card inserted, but it wouldnt scan it nor did the pc detect the "drive"
i had to reset the phone several times durring the transfer..
finally i just went with a better quality 8gb sd card i had.. its much faster.
i was going to try to contact tmobile and now that ive seen posts about the sd card i think i will.

hi all
Regarding this problem we all are having i think its got to do with the energy rom somewhere as i have flashed different energy roms and SD card appear for so long and then disappear. After taking battery out and then it will reappear again and disappear again.
I got it to stay on one rom installed all programs i needed etc then did a reset it disappeared and still gone but it can re read by a card reader so not corrupted.
so it's got something to do the Energy rom i think.
any thoughts ?
Eggie

not related to rom
i too had the same problem with stock rom and if i recall well two more users got this problem with hd2 with stock rom. i also have got the stock sandisk 8gb. all people having this problem here have got the 8gb?? i think the problem is with the 8gb card supplied with the phone.
