Hi I have read searched read and searched, but cant find how I can format sd card whilst in phone to partition it.
I also cant seem to work out exactly how to run the app_s to put apps to sd in properly.
Is it possible for someone to help and write a fools guide.
Kind thanks folks

i unlocked my phone and followed all the directions until the dump...mistakenly i thought i could dump the file from the mda instead of using a card reader...now my card cannot be read by the mda, but i can restore everything through the card when i press the camera button as i plug in the usb cord...so i know the card still works...so i guess my question is if i dump the file else where will my card be free of memory and will the security files still be intact; so i can use my mini sd card for other things...much help is appreciated
:edited: forgive my stupidity, but i was doing this last night as i was tired multitasking other things...i assume the answer to my question is to dump the file with the ntrw.exe, and my sd card should be free of use; as well as being able to be seen on my mda...please correct me if i am wrong...i am concerned because if my whole mini sd card is wiped out in the process of coping the rom from the phone to the sd card, then there is a posibility that the security files (hence secure digital) might be erased as well...this might result in why i can't see my card on the mda anymore...as i have learned that if your card's sectioned area for the security stuff is corrupted or erased in anyway, the card will not function correctly anymore...please help me out so i can test out the new roms with you guys :!:
the answers...
well sometimes you have to look for what you need instead of others doing it for you, but am i greatful just the same...for those with the same problem i have a solution...you do not need a card reader...i got my information from:

i got my sd card working again without the use of a sd card reader...i downloaded psdread and psdwrite ...next i opened a cmd window with the directory of the files...i followed another cmd "psdread -1 0 0xc0200 sd image" instead of using koniosis' cmd...with this cmd i found in the first forum above, you are able to read the file directly from the device while connected through active sync...then i went on to follow koniosis' instructions and compressed the image with winrar...next i used a hex editor to make a file 10k of 0x00...and finally i used the cmd "psdwrite -1 file.bin", and it copied to the device...i took out the card and placed it back, and the device was able to recognize and format my sd card...thanks for the guide...
to think that i figured all that out by myself (with help of course)...i have not done this kind of stuff before, so i am very proud of myself :shock:

i;m soo sry
i didnot encrypted my files but that appears when i installed the new rom
TheCHAMPJT is correct, you"re files have been encrypted by the built in program in the rom. You should be able to unlock it again using the same program (under settings) provided you haven't and DON'T reflash your rom on your phone. That will make problems much worse.
why didnt you follow the age old rulle and take out all the cards in the phone?
I experienced a lot of annoying lag (it was caused by unknown issue with SD).
I tried to format it with PocketMechanic but i get this message.
"Failed to format volume "Storage card". Reason for the failure:"Error code: 0x1f, A device attached to the system is not functioning". (note that i can add, delete and modify files on the card.)
tried SKtools version 4.4.xx but cannot find the format section.
Any suggestions?
Hello
I haven't tried pocket mechanic yet.
But some files are corrupted on my SD card.
How do we format it ?
Have any of you tried doing a search before posting new threads etc?
Try doing this next time before posting.
Thanx

Right Fallen Spartan.
I did a first search on the forum, but didn't find the solution. (maybe I didn't used the right keywords)
Searching more in google, I found in the storage tool.
Very efficient !
As I wrote into an another post, problem is solved.
Downloaded st.ppc420.arm.cab (storage tool), and suceeded formating my SD card !
I can use my HD like a USB key again.
Thanks for your link anyway, if someone didn't find the other topic, maybe he'll have more chance falling on this one !
Thanks, worked for me, too.
