Hey all,
I am currently attempting Haykuros Rogers Dream root (canadian version). I am not wanting to go any further as I cannot make a Nandroid backup.
The recovery image haykuro has in the zip is CyanogenMod 1.2 + JF.
Everytime I attempt to perform a backup on an empty SD card I get told there was an error. "Error running nandroid backup. Backup not performed". So i makes the folders but no files.
I have tried pulling out the card and putting it back in, I have tried formatting the cards, I have even tried just spamming the button for 5 minutes.
Nothing works for me. But it works for like everyone else. Could it be that both Sandisk microsd cards are faulty for this?
Anyone that could help it would take a load off my mind.
Thanks.
Had the same problem....
I had the same problem with my old sandisk 1gig card. Never figured out what the problem was. It never worked on that card but when I got my trascend 8gig class 6 it worked. I'm haveing troble myself with nandroid. I can't figure out how to restore a back up. The guide kinda isn't noob term friendly

Not sure which guide you're using but this is the guide I used for my Rogers Dream. Thought it was fairly easy to follow...

Hello
Please accept my apology if this has already been covered somewhere - I've looked and can't find an answer...
I have a modaco 2.2 modded Hero with the Cyanogen v1.4 Recovery Console. All has been fine but only recently I cannot create a backup using Nandroid 2.2 - I get an error saying 'Error running nandroid backup. Backup not performed'.
I also get an error when trying to restore from previous backups. I've tried deleting the Nandroid folder from my SD card and trying the backup again but this hasn't worked. The next thing I wanted to try was to remove the recovery console and reinstall it - but I simply can't find any instructions on how to do this.
Any help would be appreciated.
Try deleting some of the stuff on your sd card. I had the same issue and it turned out to be not enough room left on card to perform a backup.

Thanks hugely! That was the problem - I had recently partitioned the SD card so that I could use Apps2SD (not knowing that ModaCo's ROM has it included already) and as a result I was left with very little space on the card. So I've taken off a lot of stuff from it and it's now working!!
Happy days
So I have a mytouch 3g 1.2 and they come stock with an 8gb Sandisk class 2 SD card. I had problems with the SD card sometimes not being read or the phone acting like there was no SD card in there when there is. I've tried reformatting it several times to no avail. I ended up calling HTC and telling them my problem. They told me that they were out of stock and they'd put me on a list to get one when they get a new shipment in. So I'm still waiting for the replacement.
However I've recently rooted my phone with Cyanogen's recent Eclair 2.1 rom, version 5.0.7 test 7, on my phone and I've had no problems with my SD card not being read or anything like that. This leads me to think that it's not that the SD card is defective but it's the vanilla cupcake OS, stock OS, that has a problem? Has anyone else had this experience before?
I recently received a myTouch 1.2 via insurance since I lost mine and I have been having this problem. Issues being read and written on. Its aggravating since I have to unmount and re insert for it to work. Its a stock 8GB microSD and I am trying to reformat it several times will update shortly
I haven't been able to make my sdcard work, when I'm using the camera it says please insert an sdcard. I don't know y it isn't working maybe its a defect in the phone
it's under /system/etc/init.d
file called 05mountsd. the 1 needs to be changed to a 0. I'm just not sure how to go about editing it? Not the most robust of Linux guys...
So since I posted this thread I've done some reading here and there. I don't remember where I read this but I read that the problem might lie with the OS itself. I wonder if any other phones with the official stock 1.6 have this problem as well or if it's just the mytouch having this problem.
Hey Guys,
I did something remarkably stupid I think.
* SanDisk 8GB Class 4 SDcard
1. Installed WP7 Mango
2. Got an error message about the SDcard and couldn't use that anymore
3. Hard resetted the phone with my 4GB class 2 Sandisk card and started using that one.
Now... when I place the 8GB in the phone, it doesn't boot. It's just stuck on the HTC screen and doesn't go from there, so I can't unlock this one. (No Nokia's laying around, and the cab files don't really work, as I cannot boot with the 8GB card).
If I would start from scratch (stock...). Would I be able to 'revive' the 8GB card, by formatting it when installing WP7? (It creates the partitions and stuff in MAGLDR).
If not, I have no idea how to revive this card anymore
Please advise
Never mind, this doesn't work either. Good bye 8GB Sdcard...

Yep, tried that too. I spent the entire day yesterday trying to fix it, but I just can't get this to work. The SDcard is not being recognized anywhere.
When starting with Mango is says the card is not functional, and the only options I have is "emergency call" or "close" >> meaning the OS will be shutdown.
EDIT:
For some reason, the complete re-flash worked!
It took 41 minutes(!) for the OS to boot! But now it all seems to be in order
Is there a way to put this to "solved?"
Edit2:
my SanDisk 8GB SDCard clearly does not want to be used with MANGO. Switching back to 4GB. No other way

Ye edit your first post and go into advance so edit the title
Please can you explain the procedure you undertook to resolve Your issue?
What did you reflash with corrupt sd card? Did you use storageunlock.cab?
Glad you got there in the end
Nope, I just started from scratch. Flash stock - Task29 - magldr - wp7, all with the sdcard inserted.
For me eventually it didnt work out as the card got locked again..

Hey guys,Ive worked with CyanMod's images for several years and think they are great!
That being said CM7 worked so well I hadnt even considered anything else, I thought it had reached the pinnacle of what the NC could do, then I read about the new company and found out about 10!
Having messed up some previous tablets in a huge way I started by installing 10.1.2 to an SD card and working with it for a week, following the instructions found here:
http://choorucode.co...the-nook-color/
everything seeme dto work well, including allowing my 7yo to play a game that I though was beyond the capabilities of the NC, turns out it wanted 4.x!
So after a week I used some instructions found on the same site to wipe that NC (I have 3) and install 10.1.2 to the eemc.
Again everything went smooth , until I put in an SD card, then the NC stopped in the boot slash screen (CMG logo w/ the circle spinning around it) and stayed there for up to 20 minutes, finally I gave up and turned it off.
thinking I had something left on the card I wiped it, re partitoioned it, formatted it 3 ways from sunday. Same result each time.
Then I tried another card, thinking I had one go bad, nope same result each time.
Last night seeing all the new info and fioxes in 10.1.3 I thought I try that
same result.
The instructions on choorucode were very straightforward and basically consisted of the following:
1) factory reset
2) delete cache
3) go into recovery and install cm-10.1.3.2-encore.zip
4) then gapps-jb-20130812-signed.zip
5) update-encore-cwm.emmc-eyeballer.zip
6) reboot
I'm sorry I dont actually have the link to those instructions, had to reboot the pc, but again from choorucode's site.
Anyone see anything I should not have done, did in the wrong order or just fubared?
Is this a limitation of 4 on the NC?
any and all ideas appreciated.
Thanks

What is the size of the SD? And what brand/class? Have you tried using SDFormatter free on the web?
Sent from my SCH-i705 using XDA Premium HD app

one NEW thing.
Since the new install I am also having gapps crash on a regular basis, some right from boot I dont have an error message in front of me, but when I see one next Ill post it.

This really should be in Q&A... not Dev forum.
But... try a Sandisk class 2 or 4 card.
Hello
I have SanDisk 64gb microsd. I have not done anything to the phone and now periodically the phone stops reading the 64gb card .It does not say unmounted just when I check gallery the photos are not there and I have to restart the phone.
I have a rooted 4.3 ROM..The only thing I can think of is ES file explorer potentially caused issues. I noticed things acting weird after I used it when I do heavily.
Please help. Any and all advice welcome. Thanks
Tried to re flash a nandroid still issues. I noticed in general my touchwiz is running so slow. I flashed sacs red theme about a month ago. Not sure if that had anything to do with it. Should not have.
It will reread it when I remount it or reboot. Not sure specifically what is causing it though.

Have you tried searching the forums for sdcard fix? Google it? There have been issues with 4.4 and sdcard reading issues. Also downloading foldermount from the playstore has helped others with issues. If all else fails reinstall rom.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using XDA Free mobile app
I searched on Google and there is not really a concise answer as to why this happens. It is a very ambigious issue, however; it seems to be a reoccuring issue with SanDisk cards and 4.4 KitKat ROMs.
What I did was completely flush out and re-installed both custom recovery and my ROM to 4.2.2
It is disappointing because I really like my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone and you'd think upgrades mean better quality product when it has not. 4.4 KitKat ROM is not that good. I don't like both CM and TW versions of KK. One feature I do not like with TW KitKat is the inability to hide icons. There are also issues with battery drain and free hotspot mod.
I don't know what is going on. When I plug my phone into the computer I can access the SD card. When I check the phone it is not reading the SD card. Don't know what the problem is.
Have you tried a different SD card? That would help you determine if it is specific to the card or potentially a phone issue.
What I will do is try and format the SD card with the phone, then put everything back on. So far, I have isolated it to ESFile explorer. Initially I did not update the apk and thought that would work. It did not.
Here's what has happened:
I use ESFile explorer to access the SD card. Then when I went into clockworkmod, I tried to delete a nandroid copy I made. It says 'failed to delete'.
Then the ROM and sdCard do not work correctly anymore, so I have to wipe and re-flash an old nandroid.
Makes me wonder if something is corrupted in the SD Card. Everything used to work fine, but now whenever I access the SD Card with ESFile explorer, even the old version of it, it causes issue.
There is a problem with some Sandisk SD cards. Evidently there was a bad batch. I had some of the same issues. My card was bad. I went to Sandisk's website and they replaced it for free. I was without my card for a week but I got a new one and everything seems to be working fine now.
Can you explain how you did this ? So an update on my situation. I can read the sd card but it will not format and nothing can be written to the card. I tried using recovery and touchwiz to format and it fails.
Can access what is on there but cannot write or format anymore. Any ideas ? At this point I swapped to a new SanDisk card I had lying around. Don't know what to do with the old card

I assume you are asking me how I got my card replaced. I did some research and found the issue mentioned here on XDA as well as on the internet. I went to Sandisk's website, http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/list/kw/microsd microsdhc/, and did some more research. I finally contacted their customer service and they told me the process for getting the replacement shipped. If I were you I would just contact their customer service on their website and let them run you through the process.
