SD Card reading issue - G1 General

Hi guys, I dont know if there is anybody get the issue, I'm really bothered by the this one.
I have a HTC Dream, and i want to flash a Sense Rom on my g1,so i follow the instructions online, i partition my SD card, and flash a Sense ROM, everything is OK during all the procedures.
But when i boot my g1 to the lock-screen interface, the screen has no response for anything, no matter how i drag the "bridge", the screen does't respond.By the way, i have rooted my g1 and have the Danger SPL.
Above is the instance one.
Instance two, I use CM4.15.1 before, and at that time, when i open an application that is reading/writing something from/to my sd card, there is more than 80% possibilities to let the screen respond anything, even though i pull out my sd card, my g1 will not awake, i have to pull my battery off.
It really bother me, i cant do app2sd also.
Is there anybody know what my g1 happened or what i can do?

I think this is more screen-related than sdcard related. At least that's how I understood it.

also do you have a CLASS 6 SD card? thats a speed rating.... if you dont see a number inside of a C printed on the card, that typically means is class 2, the slowest type....
get at least a class 4, but class 6 is reccomended ESPECAILLY for sense builds

Thanks for attention

Thank you!
I have changed several Sense ROMs, but none of them works OK, they have the same issue.
I use CM ROM before, applications that don't read or write sd card works perfect, but others such as Camera will make the OS response for anything. So I think there maybe something wrong in reading or writing sd card.

I have a CLASS 4 Sandisk card and a CLASS 4 Toshiba card, I have tested their reading and writing speed by a tool, they seems OK, especially Sandisk card, it has max 18M/s read speed and max 16M/s write speed, so I think it is enough for Sense ROM.

You're right.
Honestly, old parts just fail sometimes. I'm sorry I can't be of more help on this, and I hope you resolve this issue without having to purchase a new phone.

My nexus restarts when i take a picture

Well the camera is slow and acting weird, but even more weird is that it started to restart everytime after i take a picture.
I'm with 8GB microSD card from my old htc HD (which i don't know which class is and if it might be slow and that causes the problem? )
Did that happen to anyone? Or at least do you know what's the class of the factory htc hd card and if that could be possibly an issue?
p.s.
i dont have any other cards handy at the moment to test a bit
I've heard that its good to have class 6 and above. Anything less is creating stability problems for the nexus.

That's completely false. Google wouldn't be shipping the phone with a class 2 card if that were true and that's not what's causing the problem. I don't know what is but best bet is to re flash your phone.
the nexus factory card is class 2?
I guess the factory htc HD cars is also class 2? Can someone confirm that, since i can't find info online.
is there another way to format the card from the phone, other than the "Format SD card" option in settings, which considering how fast "formats" i guess it's just erasing the fat table?
And do you think that unproper formatting might be a problem for android? This is card from a windows mobile phone.
That's where i'm coming from too, so excuse me for the dumb questions
Yes, it's a class 2, 4gb SD Card. I should know since I own a Nexus One. My brother had a memory card formatted by a blackberry but used it just fine on his Moto Cliq but your card may be corrupt. You could use Windows to do a full format and then just pop it back in and it will work. Just right click and click format, I believe.
Also there is no other way to format it via your phone and you can find out your card class by looking at the card there should be a small number with or without a circle around it, that's the class.

Have you called support? They have a knowledge DB that might have something about it. If it's not rooted, you can easily request a repair/replacement, they'll send you a new one.
Now it just goes black screen and after a while says that can't connect to the camera. Seems that i have dead camera and doesnt seem like can be fixed by software....
ah and i dont even have a warranty

You have a one year warranty with Google. Call HTC and explain, they'll help.
yeah well im not even in the countries where they sell, and waiting for the phone to go there and back will be at least a month....

[Q] WP7 keeps rebooting

I come from magldr 1.12 and I installed 1.13, after that I went straight to usb flasher and flashed a new rom but it keeps bootlooping, starting over and over again. anyone had this problem too? maybe some tips?
if it doesn't work after five more flashes, I'll put it back to stock first

hmm, I found the problem, I bought a new SD card today, this one is compactible, older SD cards aren't..
i would try a differnt sd card i havent had a single problem with wp7 since i flashed first time
Same here I have this problem with a Sandisk Class2 16GB restarting every 5 min or so tried everything formatted reformatted and nothing If I keep playing with the phone is no problem is look and unlock the screen normally but when is going in sleep mode by itself I can't start-it again everything is dead buttons lights don't came up, I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7.

Your phone is the problem, It happened to mine and I went back to android, kept rebooting, then went back to 6.5 and it kept rebooting, turns out if it does that its a hardware problem and you have to RMA....

nothing todo with how old it is, its todo with random read/write speeds, for instance, most newer cards with high class values like 6 or 10 use some odd mechanics that increase sequential speeds but lower random speeds, that is the issue, if the card at any point isnt able to give the spec needed then it has issues, in some cases its only minor in others it wont even be detected.

evidently not, op stated the SD card was the issue and is now fixed when he replaced it.
interesting - I've now tried two WP7 ROMs on my UK HD2 - LEO70 and XBmod-WP7-V1.04b, with MAGLDR1.13 and 2.08.HSPL and 2.15.50.14 radio and got stuck in a boot loop with both.
The only thing that's fixed it was removing the SIM and both worked fine with any SD card I try. Doesn't make for a great phone though.....
Anyone got any thoughts?
EDIT - turns out it was my old T-Mobile SIM that was the problem. Have since tried two newer SIMs and both work fine with no bootloop!

lol whats with these bold statements?
how do you know its overheating? where did the overheating comment come from? the OP didnt say as anything to the sort
you cant assume that because you have had or have read about an issue with overheating which produces these symptoms that every time a phone does the reboot thing has the same issue
however lets take it out of context, yes if you have an overheating device for a along period of time then its not going to be good, but heavy usage of the device, heavy WIFI or HSDPA usage will all make the phone rather warm, charging the battery will make it warm, if your device gets too warm it may just crash, which happens in 6.5 as well.
Hmmmmmm ?
Can I just say that I think this forum is absolutely amazing... I managed to get my HD2 running windows phone 7 in only about an hour...
I too also have this issue, but at the moment I have taken the memory card out and just reading away here.... now am not a newbie when it comes to technology, just a newbie when it comes to this forum lol
Judging with what has been said the Memory Card used in the Windows Phone 7 needs to have fast enough random access memory in order for it to operate with the phone (As If it was Solid State Memory in the actual phone)
So... having read as well from georo - I give up and install a Sandisk class2 8GB no problems at all everything fine and no more restarting which led me to think not all the cards are good with WP7
So I am now going to take a wee journey out tonight to try and find a memory card similar to what georo has said... a Class2 8GB Sandisk...
If I too can get it working with this card then we could maybe begin a small list that works with WP7 on HD2

From my readings, it's NOT a matter of speed of the SD card. Although, a class 2 card is pretty slow...you should consider at least a class 4 or 6.
But, I digress, the issue with the rebooting has to do with the compatibility of the SD card and WP7. For some unknown reason, people have had to try a hit-or-miss approach to finding a SD card that works.
I have been fortunate that my 3C Pro 16GB Class 6 card worked right off the bat. And you might want to read up on the meanings and speeds of the various SD Class designation before spending money on a Class 2 card.

Ok thanks for the reply dude... as I have said I will need to get upto speed with this stuff... at the moment I have a standard SanDisk 2GB MicroSD... so suppose if I do go and buy a class 4-6 it will be money well spent anyway as I can always revert back to the old WM6.5 ... or just claim it didnt work and take it back...
Just on a wee note... I noticed that the HD7 which is pretty much the same phone runs on a Class 2 MicroSD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883582)
Surely this should work?
also on this note... the card that comes out of a Stock 8Gb HD7 is a 8Gb Sandisk, Class 4...

[Q] Do you have problems with your sdcard? Specially high-class sd cards?

Since I bought a new sdcard (Lexar 16gb class 6) for my Milestone 2 I've been having a really annoying problem: It doesn't work well. The phone becomes irreponsible after a few minutes with the card inserted, PowerAMP nor Gallery can't scan media after a given time, and file explorers doesn't work at all, all of that collapsing to a full crash after 8 to 10 minutes (black screen, no response from keyboard or capacitive buttons whatsoever). So, my question is, does anyone have the same problem? I've tried doing this hack on my phone (http://www.xda-developers.com/android/increase-the-reading-speed-of-your-sd-card/) where the read_ahead_kb value is changed to a bigger value, but no dice (I thought since it has problem reading media, an increase of read speed would solve it). I have this huge sd card, with a performance near class 10 (about 9.8mb/s, tested on my notebook) and I can't use it. The card looks ok, I've almost filled it up with music on my notebook but when it goes to the phone, it's a disaster. I didn't tested with other class 6 or higher because I can't find one on Brazil (everything here is TOO expensive, they charge about U$100 for a class 6 card) and I can't import another right now, so right now I don't know if it's a problem with the card or if Milestone 2 has a problem with high capacity/high class cards. I'm using a 8gb class 4 right now, and it works perfectly,
So, does your sdcard performs well? What's its capacity and its class? Which brand?
Sorry for my english
There is a long thread about it somewhere and lots of people have this problem.
Nope, no problems with my Transcend 8gb Class 6. Perhaps its a card size or (less likely) the brand?

Yeah I read the thread but I just refuse to believe that a 2010 device, which was a flagship can't handle this kind of card when my old Nokia from 2008 can handle it seamessly
This needs to go into the general forum I think, not the development forums
There is a thread in here somewhere that provides a change to a file which speeds up the read/write of your memory card.. maybe give that a go?

Already tried that, didn't work.
Also, I believe that it's a problem with the software, the hardware is too new to not have compatibility with these cards. Maybe some dev has a solution or can find a solution, that's why I posted it here
Moved as not android development.
if i remember correctly, there was a long thread on this, and the resolution was to format the SD card while its in ur phone, soft reset, and that should solve the problem.

Clusters size of your SD card also influence its performance and stability.

This looks promising. I'll try to format it with a bigger cluster size. Also, this music related problem looks a lot like my problem. I'll try that and I'll be back here to report if it works. Thanks for the hint ;D
No deal =/
I'll try it again on the weekend, but I'm starting to think that I have a defective sdcard, which is odd, because it works perfectly on my computer.

I would like to try this solution too but the file with libs is missing doesnt somebody have it and could it upload somewhere?
The mp3 cracking problem has been solved in later ROMs (i.e. they've already replaced the libs). I'd suggest upgrading your device to at least 2.2.2.
it was probably solved for someone, but to replace the dll's helped me with sd card issue anyway

For starters some cards are simply not compatible with WP7.
You should try and make sure that your card is properly formatted before flashing. Use Panasonic SDFormatter to format your card..
FULL>Overwrite.
Size adjustment ON.
Format the card and then try again, If it doesnt work still then you need to use another card. There is a supported card thread in WP7 forum.

you probably would have more luck if you put this in the HD2 WP7 forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=975
you would also find that a quick search wil give you the answer as there are more threads on SD card issues than there are anything else
however because you are new an that was your first post im not going to be a complete arse!
the SD card issue is probably the single biggest issue with WP7 on the HD2.
Im not going to go in to details, but the the basics are as follows,
some cards will work, some cards dont, there is no list, but statistically you stand a better chance with a class 2 or 4 card
other than that there is nothing you or anyone else can do, its Luck, pure an simple.
there is a small chance that you can format the card and have some success, look for the panasonic SD formatter, use it and completely format the card.
It might help but it probably wont.

First I will format the card and see what happen. If still doesn't see the card I will buy a new one.

it ususally tells you on the card its self, a wee number in the corner, some older / OEM cards may be blank, in this case there isnt much you can do to tell, if you can find the model number on it you could google it and see if anyone has posted the spec, perhaps there is a way to view the spec on a PC, ive never tried.
if you do end up buying one just be careful, dont buy anything you cant afford to have sit around gathering dust, there is no way of knowing if it will work until you try it, and even then there is the possibility of it being unstable, random restarts is the most common but there is a whole bunch of stuff that has been put down to dodgy SD cards.
what id suggest is coming back to us (on the WP7 forum) with what you have found, but use one of the many many many threads that are already there, we get a bit touchy when someone opens yet another SD card thread
stick to class 2 or 4 dont go for anything that goes on about ultra fast blar blar, probably go no higher than 8GB just now, as the cost starts to jump up after that and as i said, there is a very real chance that it will either A, not work, or B have issues.
once you get a working one though it is trully very very fast!

[Q] please help why dose my phone keep restarting?

I think your Sdcard does not match to Wp7.
Change another sdcard and try again

I have 2 cards thay are both sandisc one is 16 gb the other is 4 gb i think thay are both class2 but am unsure thare is a logo that says c2 in the top right of the cards
however I dont think thats what the probulm is!
but am unsure.
I realy hope someone will help me figure this out.
Are you having this problem with BOTH SD cards, or just one?
The SD card, WP7, HD2 combination is very finicky. My Kingston 8GB c2 seemed to be functioning perfectly fine, with the exception of 6-7 hours battery life w/ little to no usage. I also noticed that it took a while for apps to install at the last step of a hard reset on 7720.
Thinking that Kingston was good, I upgraded to 16GB c4. The device wouldn't even boot past the splash screen after leaving magldr. So, I changed to a PNY 16gb c4 and got to see just how badly my 8GB had been performing. The apps that took a while to install at the last step of hard resetting Mango were installed in an instant. And my battery life tripled. I don't have to worry about my phone dying anymore.
So, it's very likely that your SD card can be causing the random reboots. Use dev_storagelock to unlock the card you currently have installed. Perform a hard reset. Stop the process when magldr starts and swap cards. Allow the new card to be integrated into WP7 and see if the reboot problem persists.

Are you having this problem with BOTH SD cards, or just one?
The SD card, WP7, HD2 combination is very finicky. My Kingston 8GB c2 seemed to be functioning perfectly fine, with the exception of 6-7 hours battery life w/ little to no usage. I also noticed that it took a while for apps to install at the last step of a hard reset on 7720.
Thinking that Kingston was good, I upgraded to 16GB c4. The device wouldn't even boot past the splash screen after leaving magldr.

It's probably not the ROM and most likely the SD card. That's what WP7 does. It's super picky.

i did a haed reset and cleard all crc data the problum still ocurs
the only diffrence to both of the sd cards a i have is size
so unless i was to go buy a higher class im gessing buying another would be pointless
the weard thang is this didnt alwase happen
i used bttfv1 no problums
had bttfv2 then all sorts of problums started happening first time i flashed most of the updates with zune
then was forced to start from scrach agin after i messed up my registry with advanced config
second time i upgraded to bttfv2 i used the one shot method and im not exactly sure but i think thats when i started haveing the issue.
You allready know what's wrong, it's the SD cards you've been using. Keep trying with class 2\4\6 Sandisk cards.

what was that a sarcastic remark? & no i dont know whats wrong because as i stated before i didnt have this problum before my previous installation.
i am useing sandisk class2 16gb i am useing the card that came with the phone i realy dont understand why that would be the issue?
whats the best card to get then?
Your SD card would be the issue if the card or some sectors on the card lacks the required random read\access speed. This could very well create problems on one installation while working seemingly fine on another.
I've already said what cards I believe gives you the highest chance of working, you'll just have to keep trying with those. Theoretically you could also try reinstalling the whole thing and hope that no critical files ends up on the lower speed sectors of the card, but I don't know what chance that would have of working.
The only marketable difference between the cards may be size, but WP7 doesn't really care about that. When I we say that it's picky, we really mean it. You can have great success with one card, and then put another in of the same brand different class and WP7 will no longer boot. SD cards affect battery life and everything.
By an SD card from Fry's, if there's one around. They've got a 15 day return policy w/o restock fee. I only went through 2 cards finding the right one to upgrade to, but was prepared to go through their entire selection and the sales girl even told me to not feel bad about doing it.
Hi,
probably you must calibrate battery or yours SD card not works correctly...

I had the same issue bu not due to Sd card
I have a Kingston 16GB calss2 works perfect
The issue was that the original rom was American English
if i istall like it is everything works good and since i/m greek i can use also the buld in greek keypad with no problem
BUT when i change to my language the full functions of the phone , then it keeps
restarting byitself ....
For me no problem to work with the english menu at all , so i keep the device in english and works.
