i repaired my td2, new housing and digitizer. and have the following problem;
in explorerer the memory card is gone (also in other explorer apps)
when syncín with my pc the memory card is recognized?
what could couse the problem, tried different roms , memory card is oke.
Have you tried a another Sd card? Perhaps format the card and see if that helps. If thats not it then it sounds like drivers or something. I would flash to the latest Official HTC rom and start over. Or perhaps just Hardreset the device and see if it comes back. Seems like some software/registry bug or it's missing drivers.
I would format my microSD card first, try another card, hard reset, flash a new firmware, then call HTC for a new phone.
very strange, tried the 8gb card is always use but its not working anymore, not on td2 or computer. Tried 2nd one and works on computer and with connecting the td2 with pc it is recognized but not when is use my phone.
tried a 3rd memory card ... it works ?
nevertheless

After using my vario 2 for a while the mem card becomes unusable.
It's shows no free space at all. I have a 1 gb memory that came with my t-mob vario 2.
My mp3 ring tone doesn't work anymore. I have to remove and reinsert the memory card or soft reset the device.
Radio 1.20.31.10

Any idea's what could be the problem?
Thanks
The smilar problem occured with one of my XDA-II (Himaliya), Even though I have hard reseted the device. Finnaly I have backuped the card through the pc and format the card (on PC) and it wasn't working, even though I have tried 3 other cards and they were working absolutely fine with the device. What I did was to leave the card inside the device for overnight and it was recognisable in the morning, then I took out the card from the device to put the data back from the PC and once I have put the card back in the device the card wasn't recognisable again, So finaly I left the card again in the device overnight and it was recognisable again, then I left the card in the device and put the data back through the syncronisation.
I haven't taken out the card since then because I know there is some recognising problem between the device & the card, its working since then.
My Advice is : To check another card and if that would work then try to sell your current card and buy another.
My advice 02: Try to backup your device, leave the card inside the device and HARD Reset the device & once the device will install newly it should configure the card as well.
I have got very usefull software "storagetools" (trial) by which you can scan, format & defrag the card, you can try it.
GoodLuck

Use chkdsk on the PC to check your storage card (instead of any PPC-based software, including Storage Tools). I also recommend the thread at http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=39583 on all these q's.
On a related issue concerning problems with microSD cards and the TyTn, I have a problem which I hope you can help me with:
I have a new TyTn (ROM Ver. 1.18.255.3) with a 512mb miniSD card. In the course of my usual usage, the device hanged and after a few minutes of unresponsiveness, I reset the device using the reset button. When it rebooted, the card is no longer recognized by the phone. I used a card reader and WinXP and Mac OSX cannot also recognize it. If I try to format it (XP), XP says that the card cannot be formatted. I tried using it in my Samsung D820 and it cannot also be formatted. I then concluded that the card was defective and bought a new one (512mb).
After using the new card for a week, my TyTn hanged while accessing a program installed in the card. Again after a few minutes of unresponsiveness, I rebooted the phone using the reboot button. When the device booted-- Bam!!! the card can no longer be recognized by my phone! Windows and Mac OSX cannot mount it. I tried the unrecognized card in my Samsung D820 and it is recognized! I inserted the miniSD card (128mb) originally in my D820 in my TyTn and it is recognized/read by the TyTn. I formatted the defective card in the D820 and copied a few files in it and the D820 can read those files but my TyTn can't! I tried the other 128mb card on my TyTn, formatted it and copied files into it and everything's fine.
How come then that the 512mb card can be read by my Samsung phone and not by the TyTn? My TyTn is certainly not defective because It can access the 128mb card that was originally in my D820. As I stated earlier, I have already formatted the 512mb card in my Samsung phone and have transferred files into it (The Samsung phone can read the files written on it).
I have re-inserted the 512mb card numerous times in my TyTn to no avail. I have also rebooted my TyTn several times and still it cannot recognize/read the 512mb card. I am now using the 128mb card that I originally use in my Samsung D820.
If it can help, I have enabled and unlocked my TyTn's extended ROM. I have a few programs that are installed in my Ext ROM.
Thanks!
Similar card problem
I recently purchased the T Mobile MDA Vario2 with the CoPilot 6 software. worked fine for about a week and then the CoPilot software which was running from the memory card started to hang intermittently. The first couple of times a soft reset cured it. Then after about the third soft reset, the memory card was no longer recognised. Tried reading the card via my pc and that couldn't recognise it either.
Took both the phone and card back to T Mobile where a new card was tried, this was recognised immediately so I now have to take the whole CoPilot package back to be replaced.
I have also just orderd a new 1GB sandisk card from Amazon and am now concerned that this is going to be a repeating issue. I wonder how many other owners have had this problem and if it is actually a fault with the Vario2 or wether I have just been unlucky with a dodgy memory card.
Would appreciate other thoughts on this.
Cheers
Matt
I think that enabling the "Advance network functionality" causes the corruption of memory cards.

The storage card in my phone has started vanishing. After a reset the card is visible but after a period of time it is no longer visible and can not be accessed, this period can vary from about two minutes to a couple of hours. I have performed a hard reset and that has not helped and when I tried to format the disc using Professional Mechanic I receiving a message saying that it is not possible to format the card.
Is it just that the SD card has become corrupted, if that is the case I will buy a new one?
Thanks

Try with another card, if you do not get the same problem, then it might be your card's issue. If you face the same problem with another card, I could be your phone's reader problem. I suspect is the card because you can't even format it...
Funny, on friday the same happened to me! Tried a lot, as well to save all data on my HDD, but it was not possible. Somehow several sectors are corrupt, and in the phone the SD disapears when the phone reads certain sectors, eg do a clean up scan with SkTools, or use the media player browser. Then it will be gone.
Today i did send it back to my distributor, as my one is a SanDisk, and they offer 60month of guarantee.
Good luck with your SD!
Try at first to save all Data before you try anything else! Otherwhise you might loose some data...
I have bought a new Micro SD card and everything is now working. Bought a smaller card and will see if that helps and prevents this card getting corrupted.
Well, I used mine a lot in the sd-adapter and the cardreader of the PC. And I read on the web that everyone recommends to use it only via mini-usb. Seems as if otherwhise the damage can come up. So maybe just use the mini-usb. I am so waiting for the replacement, hopefully tomorrow it will arrive!
Exactly the same problem with my Jade and a micro sd sandisk 8Go.
When soft reset it appears but if I try any operation on the sd (read, write, execute ...) it vanished.
I had the same problem friday night. On saturday I tried everything. Hard reset. Flashed a different rom... I was travelling and I didn't have an adapter for the micro SD to insert it on my notebook. When I got home I tried to copy everything from th card to my notebook and I found out some files were damaged. I formated the micro sd thought my notebook and coppied back the files that weren't damaged. After that it's been working fine!!!

DID U FORMAT THE SD? IS IT SANDISK? IF YES 2X REPLACE IT ia warranty...
Yes it is a sandisk 8Go.
I just bought a card reader and format on the PC (I was not able to format with all the softs I have tried on the Jade). Everything seems fine.
I've got the same problem. I've been using a Sandisk 16Gb for 8 months in my Jade without any problems until I updated the ROM with the new official ROM from HTC!
HTC were very unhelpful. All they would say is that the Jade can only use up to 4Gb cards. I tried to recover the data, via the USB as it showed up as empty if put in a reader. Tried formatting it but the standard XP tool wouldn't work so downloaded a formatting tool which worked.
It has worked fine for about a month, now its doing it again. I haven't tried a different card but I'm sure its not coincidence that it only started doing this after updating the ROM.
Is there any way to get the original ROM back. I know elsewhere on this site there are loads of ROM's available for flashing but I'm not ready to go down this route just yet. Does it need HSPL to put an original ROM back on?
Thanks,
Woolly.
i got 8gb memory card with my hd phone,it's 2 months old.suddenly memory card dosen't work on my phone. file manager does not show memory card even my phone shows the message 'install storage card'. now i am really worried,it seems like a big problem.i tried to another memory card but still shows the same issue.
plz suggest me how to get rid of it?.what to do now...............? .
same here..
for 6 months i hadnt got any problem.. but now the phone isnt recognizing the storage card
Use one of these to format your SD-card again:
http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/
http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/index.html
I want to format it.. but I want to back up it first because I have a lot of things that I dont want to lose.. But even my pc, doesnt shows me the storage card.. doesnt recognize it, to back up it..
please help..
If even card reader on PC can't recognize contents of SD, you can probably throw away that SD...
But, for last chance, try to read it with SD reader which came with SD card (if that was a case) or on another PC...
I will try my SD card in another phone... i havent SD reader.. I havent done anything to my phone.. It was ok, when I woke up and my phone didnt recognize my SD..
I heard about a program called restoration.. search for this..
maybe this can help me?.. format my SD, and then restore my things on SD again?
sooner or later all sdcards die be sure to backup important data from your sdcard to your computer once in awhile
My experience....
I see a number of comments about this problem in the Touch HD so I will share my experiences.
My HD quit recognizing the memory card some time ago. Occasionally I could re-install a ROM and get it to function briefly. As soon as I installed programs on the card, the links would disappear and the card would become unreadable. I tried different cards, I tried new cards, I formatted the card on my PC, I ran task29 to clean ROM memory prior to installing a new ROM and I I tried the stock HTC ROM. The micro SD cards are always perfectly functional and readable on my PC and on other devices including a friend's Touch HD.
After all of this, I gave up and I now use the HD without a memory card. I have become very frugal with memory useage!
If anyone discovers a fix for this malady, your solution would be greatly appreciated.
I searched.. and the only I found is that we have, as soon as we get our new SD card, to do a FAT32.. so it will not have a lot of problemss
If the card is formatted correctly, and is recognisable in a PC and other devices, then it's more than likely to be a hardware issue.
I know, because one of my devices is also broken exactly like this. It's likely the SIM/SD Comboboard, but I've never found a supplier for spares . . anyone know of anywhere?
Hello guys,
Same problem with touch hd. tried everything mentioned. task29, different roms, other sd-cards, reformatting etc... still no luck!
hope someone is going to find a solution soon!

disapearing micro SD
I also had the same problem some time ago when connecting to pc through USB opting for disc drive connection and not using the sync button, then solved the problem when I flashed a new ROM.
Regards,
I also have this problem.
I've had the 8GB SD Card for about a year now and untill now, its always worked without a problem.
I installed a Topix Rom this weekend. I also installed most of my programs to the storage card.
Within a day it was dropping in and out. I am able to see the card, but not run any mp3's off it.
When the card drops out, I can either take the card out and reinsert it or restart the phone and the card is visible again. It still cant play mp3s or videos though.
Anyone else having this problem since they've installed a new Rom?
Hello I'm new here, I couldn't find what i was looking for so hear i go...My sd card is not working either after about 1 year just stopped working the phone says it is not installed so is it possible to reinstall it? Thanks...
Quick update...
I tried formatting the sd card & it worked. Thanks people

Spares for hardware fault
Just to add, as I said previously about my device, the SDCard reader was faulty, and HTC Europe refused to supply the part without a HTC Service Centre repair.
For anyone else having hardware issues, I managed to source the part from China, and now it's working perfectly again after a simple repair.
Here's the link; http://cnn.cn/shop/touch-simmicrousb-card-module-p-7149.html
I searched the forum, Google and whatnot. But no solution seemed to help me with this problem. About a week ago my MicroSD card dissappeard on my Touch HD. I removed the SD card, put it back in and it was there again. The next day, it happened to me again. I tried to do the same as I did before, but this wouldn't help.
I have changed the registry according to this page right here, but that didn't help either.
Now thinking it was a ROM problem, I upgraded to Miri's v15 and the problem is still there. Then again I changed the registry values. But my SD Card is still missing. Does this mean my SD card is broken? Or does anybody have an other solution that might work?
Thanks in advance!

Formatage sd Doit Etre Suffisant (FAT 32)
Seems your SD card is broken, the same happend to me some time back.
I'm not sure if you understood the non English post above, but it seems they are suggesting the same as I'm about to.
Try to format your sd card on your pc using a card reader. Format it to FAT32. If you are lucky you may still be able to retrieve the data off of it via the pc, if so back it up to your pc, format the card and then you can transfer the data back.
It does sound like those above have suggested. You'll need to format your SD Card. Make sure you backup whatever files you have on it first
I recognize the problem, I've also had this, first check your sd card for the problem, those things are very fragile...
android
Hi, thbis happend to me when i was testing android, I lst all my data but was able to repair it and get it working intermittently by reformatting it. It turned out to be the shelby ROM I was using as when I reflashed with a different ROM the problem went away, it may have been android that corrupted the driver or something but starting from scratch with a new rom and reformatted card worked for me.
Thanks for your support. Today I formatted my MicroSD card with a Nokia phone. This phone recognized my SD Card AND all of the files that where on there. Replacing my SD card with the one in the Nokia gave me the same problem. My Touch HD wouldn't recognize the SD Card. So I guess it's a problem with my Touch HD then?
Knowing that the registry edit didn't work, what else can I try? Don't really feel like flashing to a stock rom and sending it to HTC...
*bump* anyone ? My MicroSD card still isn't working
You checked for bent pins or some form of obstruction in the microsd slot? If you tried another card and same problem then it's going to be the device somehow.
I did a hard reset on my Touch HD. It works.
Hi.
i was working with my blackstone, and Suddenly my memory card disapear.
i know this can happen whem we are flashing a rom but this wasn`t my case.
I try to format on my pc with my card reader but he doesn`t recognize the card.
Try to flash original rom but with no success.
is there a solution fot this?
Thanks
Same here, just went to a store and purchased new SD Card, the old one is gone. Another thing I've rad, that the SD have to be out when flashing ROM. I work a lot with Flash Memory (disk-on-key) and noticed that Flash Memory is not a trustworthy data keeper, it day they can just stop working and nothing you can do about.
