hi there. i bought a new class 6 8gb Micro sd card about a week ago.
When my phone was using the class 2 card my phone with an installed rom and was working perfectly. In the following sequence, i started using my new card. formatted the card to FAT32 and then booted into fastboot and formatted it into fat32-ex2-linux. reboot my phone with the new card in still and all it does is loop over and over.
i put my old sd card back in and the phone boots right away. is ther anywhere in the sequence which tells you guys im going wrong and if so can someone please advise me on which way to go?
thank you very much
edit - did a data wipe and fresh install with the class 6 sd card and it does the same again. looping over and over on the boot screen. will be going back to the class 2 for now
for your info this phone is a voda magic. 32b. cheers
this is what i did for my sd card.
-booted into Amon_RA's recovery mode with the NEW sd card.
-formatted it to FAT32 then to fat32/ext2/swap
-wipe data off phone
-pull new sd card out and put another sd card that has your rom you want to flash to
-flash rom
-once flashing is complete, pull out sd card with update.zip and put in NEW formatted card
-Reboot phone
thanks for you reply! unfortunately no luck.
does anybody else have any other ways of doing this?
thank you
bump!!!!!!
i must just have a dud card. even tried putting a nandroid restore image onto it but after the restore, same story.
gutted
quick update on the situation. Wiped the card, reformatted all with new partitions and success! it booted with new rom etc.
after around an hour my phone had turned itself off. only way to turn it back on was to pull the battery and then power on. after around the same amount of time the phone did the same.
i pulled the card. phone powered on and then stayed on. very strange
someone give me some help please!!
thanks
I don't know when did this started happening actually, I flashed a number of roms in the past couple of days, but I can't get rid of this stupid notification and its really driving me crazy!
When I mount my SD card so I can transfer files from PC and the unmount I get the error "Damaged SD Card - SD card damaged you may have to reformat it"
The thing is reformatting does not solve it, and when I have this notification nothing that accesses the card works (music, photos, astro..)
I tried reflashing my rom again which made the error go away for a while but after some mount-unmount I have it again!
I have a non-branded HTC magic (32A) with Cyanogen 4.2.3 and Enoch theme and RA's recovery image and NO apps2sd
Any help?
Thanks
fixed it
Okay I got it to go away, I formatted from the recovery menu (fat32 only)
and I turned off the swap file and uninstalled the swapper app.
No problems so far!
i've found that rebooting the phone makes the sd card damaged error message go away
and that rebooting my pc actually solved the problem of the pc not seeing the sdcard
but that may just be temporary, i dont know
Strange SD Card!
When I mounted my SD Card I was receiving an error and was asked to Scan or Continue. I chose scan and then it looks like it mounted fine. I can view all the folders and files but if I try to copy any files to the card or try to create a folder I get an error saying the Drive is not available and it is no longer mounted. I put the card in a card reader and I received the Scan option again and I scanned it to fix any errors but it doesn't find any. I then can copy, delete and modify anything on the card. I put the card back in the phone and mount the card. No issues until I try to copy, delete or modify and it unmounts and will not work. I have the original T-Mobile Rom and I have not rooted it.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Hey everyone,
Today I mistakingly tried to update a Froyo ROM with an Eclair, and it messed up my phone. So I flashed the default Bell ROM and went to install the Eclair, only this time I kept getting an error that /sdcard/andboot/androidinstall.tar can't be read.
I've checked over and over and: 1) the folder location is right (in the root of the SD Card, all lower case), 2) the .tar file is not corrupt, and 3) the SD Card is formated in FAT32.
I have no idea what is going on, and I'm stuck with the default Windows Mobile 6.1 now.
Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks
same here
I'm actually having the same thing. Clean FAT32 card. 1 directory 'andboot' all lowercase, 1 file in that dir 'androidinstall.tar' all lowercase.
I see android detecting the insert of the SD card, but apparently it wont read it...
solved
After reformatting [and repartitioning] the sd card, what worked for me in the end, was reformatting it [yes, again] to fat32, making the directory, putting in the file, and then resetting the phone. My guess: even though it detected the insert of an sd card, it did not really mount the filesystem until after the reboot.
Hello,
I have an HTC HD2 running CoreDroid 1.6, but when I ejected my microSD card, to put some music on it, it suddenly (accidently) got formatted by a program I was running. Now, when I put it back in, the phone can't recognize it anymore.. It does recognize it as an SD card, but the phone still says there isn't enough space on the phone.
And when I put in the SD card when the phone is off, I turn it on but the phone doesn't get passed the startup screen, it just stays there forever. But when I eject the micro SD card and restart the phone, then it starts up just fine.
Can anyone help?
have you tried formatting the card ?
I did format it again, yes. But no such luck.
I just did an update. I updated to HD2 V3. But it still wont start up when the microSD card is in.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I've already tried a reinstall of the coredroid 1.6 rom, but my microsd card still isn't working. The phone can find the card perfectly, but it still doesn't work.
You have more then likely not formatted it properly.
Use Panasonic SDFormatter...
Format: Full/Overwrite
Size Adjustment: ON
I bought a new MicroSD card today and put it in the phone, and it's still not working. But i'll try that program.
I formatted the MicroSD card using that program. Still not working. The phone does recognize it, but it just doesn't add up the space to the system and the phone doesn't start up while the card is in.
Hi did you resolve this?
I installed WinMo 6.5 with some themes and now my SD card is not seen on the phone
Hey all, I'm hoping somebody can help me. I'm currently running a rooted stock S5 I have safestrap installed and towel root.
All of a sudden this morning when I open to my gallery and pressed on a picture, it would not get bigger. I didn't think anything of it so I rebooted my phone. And when it came back up there was nothing on the SD card, all of my pictures and my music has disappeared. I unmount the SD card pulled it out rebooted we mounted SD card and I got an error message saying that the SD card was blank or the files are not supported. Has anyone come across this before?
When I got home from work, I pulled the SD card out put it in a card reader and on my computer again there were no files at all on the card. I put the card back in the phone and tried to reformat it, it would not reformat. I tried with several different SD cards and I'm getting the same error message saying that the card is blank and the file is not supported.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you might wanna try minitool partition wizard on your pc with your micro sd in your card reader and plugged into your pc and when you pull up your sd card im sure youll see your sd card isn't fat32 anymore and is Linux so to fix youll need to right click on the sd and click delete then put back into your phone and format then youll have it working again, but sorry to say your files are now gone on your micro sd
