I have not seen that error, have you made any MODS to your phone? (ie root, etc.) What RC are you on?

I had all sorts of problems like that for a while after I got the phone.
I tried a variety of things and it seemingly went away, although I haven't tested extensively. I'm not sure what exactly did it.
1) I stopped using a USB extension cord and plugged the cord that shipped with the device directly into my computer.
2) I replaced the default SD card with a Kingston 4GB chip from Newegg.
3) I installed the debug USB drivers (this is very unlikely to matter).
There might be other factors involved.

it happens because your pc has usb1.0 and not usb2.0 I have usb1.0 and i get the i/o error. the way i have to load my mem card is put it into the wing then load it
I agree with Abbens... had the same problems with everyone else. But have now fixed it.... use the USB2.0 cable onto a USB2.0 port on a PC, then "mount" from notifications and the SD card should be accessible.
thanks
Okay guess I'll try it this weekend and post a reply thanks guys

I love my wing but one of the several suckky things about it is the file transfer, if i am transfering a files that is anything bigger han like 5o mb it takes mad long to tranfser from my pc to my phone. And files like movies are impossible to transfer. I was trying to transfer a movie to my phone and even after waiting about 5 hrs. it did not finish the transfer. That basically means that i can't use my phone as video player. That suck, or is there a way that i could speed up the ttransfer speeds, tips tricks hacks, anything is fine. Except i don't want ot go too far with the hacks. Thanks people
Why dont you just pop-in the microSD into its SD adapter and put it into the cardreader? I'm using a sandisk branded microSD and it transfer 1.7GB in <5mins!
For smaller data transfers(<40mb),I use activesync.
I am aware of the solution that you gave me, but the problem is that my computer does not recognize the micro SD card in the SD adopter, which by the way is Sandisk branded and the two came together. Is there a way i can make that work??

I think he meant the phone's built in connection.
^exactly what I meant. A $15 1GB flash drive has USB 2.0, but this $400 phone can't...
yay, my computer recognizes my card, but still no good.
Ok so finally after waiting an hour for my computer to recognize my Micro sd card which was in an sd adopter, it finally did it. But then when i tried to open it it took another 35 minutes to respond. And then it said that the card is'nt formatted and asked me if i wanted to format it. i know that if i format it for my computer all it's previous data will disaper, so what should i do.
There is a possibility that the cardreader doesn´t support the size of your memorycard. For examplae my laptop is equipped with a bulit-in cardreader that supports SD&Memorystick BUT only up to 1GB. Anything above that (for example my 2GB card from my digicam) and I get the same results as you do. Sometimes i isn´t recognized and sometimes it is but extremely slow but I can never write anything to it.
So is there anything i can do about that?
Anyone know what I can do? At least how can I get access to the memory card? thanks
i suppose you are using the cabel, which came with the wing - not one from a digital camera or so...
because sometimes the companys are changeing little things in the camera-cables so its not "iso-conform" or standard anymore...
other usb-devices are recognised by ur pc?
did u try other usb-ports?
are u running the newest active-sync?
Error message.
Is nothing happening when you plug it in, or is windows telling you it cannot recognize the device? If nothing happens, you need a new cable. If you get a error message (cannot recognize or device has malfunctioned) then you need to reinstall or update ActiveSync.
You can always load music and pictures by taking the Micro SD card out, using the adaptor, and putting it into the SD slot on your computer. That's much faster for loading music anyway. What version of ActiveSync do you have? Is it the one that came with your phone?
p.s. Only post once for each problem. It may take a few days but someone will get back to you. That way we don't clutter the board with extra messages.
i just changed my cord and it worked fine
Hello Everyone,
WMStorage was one of the first apps I installed on my previous phones... but it does not work on the HD2.
Is there something similar that will work?
Thanks in advance!
It will work as a USB drive (allowing access to SD card) when you plug the usb in and select Disk Drive instead of activesync.
I'm not sure how you could make it read only though.

At the moment the only added feature of WM5torage over the builtin Usb transfer app is the LED lights and to use Phone memory as a drive.
But the most wanted feature is to use it as read-only so my phone sd card would be protected from viruses when I use it as a flash drive.
The read-only feature works on WM5 phones though.

Don't plug into computers that have viruses?
Weird idea I know...

Yea.. but for a long time my phone storage card has been my main flash drive for virus removal/computer fixes, I've depended on WM5torage for several years now mainly so I won't have to be walking with multiple flash drives/sd cards. Just the phone and the usb cable, and sometimes a USB BT adapter.
(My current flash drives don't have a read only switch).
And I lost the USB cable for my iPAQ which has WM5.

hello guys!
my problem is popular on google but i don't see any one with my problems.
Anyway, i used my usb to connect and transfer some pics and some music.
Everything was OK until i unplugged my usb. PROBABLY WITHOUT UNMNOUNTING (on my mac). The message on my x10 is like this "preparing sd card. checking for errors"
I have tried to fix the problem by recovering the phone to fabric mode (?).
Anyway i just want to know how to fix this and i have tried a different card into my phone so there is no problems with the phone.
My comp doesn't recognize my x10 anymore. This is really frustrating and i can't use the sd card in the phone because it just restarts itself.
Try formatting the card and see if that helps.
how to formate the card if my comp wont read it?
i have no adapter or anything else, except my x10...
The card works in other phones and i have tried micro sd 2gb in my x10 and it works...
PLEASE HELP

Use one of them to format it.
I actually have a similar issue. When connecting the phone to a mac via usb, upon dissconnecting the card becomes unreadable. I used an adapter to reformat the card to get it working again. I am no longer connecting via usb with my mac. Connecting from Bluetooth doesn't cause this problem. Best bet is to borrow/buy an adapter to reformat. Try not to connect to mac via usb as the card almost always becomes corrupt upon disconnection.

So I noticed that my sd card didn't want to show up on my PC. Or one of them at least. It turned out that the one I could see on my PC was the emmc card, and not the external. It wasn't too big a deal really. As I was fooling around, I installed a new driver (as part of installing theADB/SDK stuff) and then all of a sudden, the cards were reversed. I could see my external card, but not the emmc card. At one point, I swear i could access both cards on my PC. What can I do to remedy this situation so I can access both cards?

Tell us more. What version of software are you running? Stock, CM7, CM9, CM10 or something else? What version of software on PC? Windows, Linux, Mac? Do two drives show up but only one displays anything? Or just one drive? Are they drive letters or under other devices? And you are talking about plugging the USB cable in, not putting chip in card reader?
Thanks. Sorry for the lack of info. I am running CM7.2, and looking for the sd cards through windows 7. Honestly, I am not sure I have this same problem on my home laptop, but definately on my work laptop. Both drives show up, usually as E: and F:, but when I click one of them, it says "please insert disk into removeable disk f:"
Does that help?

Yes that helps. The problem is you are not activating the USB connection. You need to pull up the notification area and you will see a selection for turning on computer access. Until you do that the drives are not active on the PC.
Another way to do it is to use the app NookColorUMS. You can get it on my tips thread linked in my signature. See item B7 in my second post of that thread. That app lets you select whatever partition you want to populate the drives on the PC.
