how would i format the card if i can't get the phone to start with the kingston sd card?

if you can get a sd card adapter you could format it from your computer
you could try and format it from another mobile phone if you have one
also... try put the sd card in the phone while the phone is ON

[Q] Android does not recognize SD Card

I installed the NAND android. I followed the instructions, installed HSPL, then the new Radio, then the MAGLDR, then I flashed Android.
But when it starts, the phone didn't recognize the SD card. I removed the sd card and put it again, but it didin't work. When I tried to take a picture or go to the music app, the phone pop ups a message telling me to insert an sd card. I can't broswe the sd card on the phone even in the computer when I connect usb.
I need some help to know what to do. It was my first flash and i'm very inexperient.
The sd is the 16gb that comes with the original phone from t-mobile. The phone is unlocked.
Format the card with panasonic formatter and try again. :3
It'll prolly work after.

I format the SD card and the problem was solved. It is good to remember for new users to format you sd card before install a completely different OS in your phone.

[Q] Android can't see MicroSD card

As said, Android can't see my SD. I have CleanDroid installed on NAND.
When I insert the SD in the phone, appears an icon on the top that says "Now it's possible to remove the SD safely". If i remove the SD it says that it's removed, and when i reinsert it, again "Now it's possible to remove the SD safely". Obviously i can't install apps in the sd through "APP2SD", can't use Waze cuz it says that doesn't find the SD card in the phone, the same appears with the camera that tells that if i want use camera i need to insert an SD. BUT THE SD IS STILL THERE!!! what do I wrong with it?
I tried to change my 8GB SD with a friend's 2GB SD... but still the same. I tried to go in Settings, Memory, "Install SD" too, but it only tells again that i can remove the sd safely...WHAT THE HELL I WROOOOOOONG?!?!?!?! xD
EDIT: I forgot, i tried to change the ROM too, tried about 5-6 different ROMs but it still doesn't work...
Did you try formatting with Panasonic formatter?
You're just inserting the SD card right? You're not pressing amount SD card in settings right?
Its look your cards r not compatible with HD2 card reader. I had same issue with about 3 or 4 cards.
The best way is to use genuine SanDisk cards !

hi guys, there is an update: today i woke up and tried again to insert an sd card. If it's formatted in NTFS or in exFat it says "The SD is damaged. Do u want to try to format?". So i answer yes, it formats the card and then says again the same thing "The SD is damaged. Do u....". From there whatever SD i will insert wont work cuz it will say the same thing. If i try to insert a 2GB Sandisk SD it wont work, the same for my 8GB Kingston and everything else. If i flash again the ROM (the same or another) it tells only that I can safely remove the SD card...BUT I DON'T WANT TO REMOVE IT! I WANT TO USE IT!!! xD so i think my problem is something like a "loop". The telephone remembers his last one choiche and whatever I will do it will give me the same response for every SD. If I format it will be the same...
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT I'M THE ONLY ONE PERSON WITH THIS FU*** PROBLEM???
I sometimes have this problem - it sometimes does what you describe or says that the card is Damaged.
The only way i've found to fix this issue is to format the Card on a Linux machine - i have a laptop that i can dual boot with Ubuntu - i remove the partitions on the card and format it fresh to NTFS using the Disk Tools in Ubuntu and it works a charm every time....
Hope this helps - it is a bit of an annoying issue!
Cheers
Paul

[q] please help asap!!!!

Im in magldr ad recovery went to install zip from sd card and it keeps saying no files found. Please help asap
Reboot your phone with sd-card inserted.
did that...still says no files found...why?
Marvelez
can you offer anymore help? im losing it right now
Check your sd-card in your computer, and make sure it is working, also try to clean it and it's house from dust.
No files found is an error due to the phone unable to reach the sd-card.
standby please
still not working

Did you fixed it? I'm experiencing the same problem.. when you get an answer, please post us.
It is very possible it was due to an unsupported file system
