Hello,
I use a Sandisk 8GB micro SDHC card in my Tattoo. The first problem is that the card is not always recognized. After a reboot it works mostly fine again. The second problem is that i lost sometimes all my data on the card without any reason, it is just gone in a moment, I have already formatted the card in my PC but without any success. It is also not possible to do a format in my Tattoo (not working). Any suggestions how to handle with this? Thanks a lot, Mark
try formating the card i have the same card and it works sharply.. (format twice. )
Oops
I was thinking about buying this card... But now I think I won't risk :\

I've had this problem with my 8gb sandisk card too, but with froyo NFinity - had to format it the first time, and it was fine for a couple of days, then yesterday it came up with "Preparing SD Card", then "SD Card safe to remove" then "SDcard blank or has unsupported filesystem" in the notifications blind. Never had anything other than a FAT partition, and when I try to fomat it (on the phone, in Windows, in Linux) I can't. :/ I think my 4gb card was fine, but a bit scared to check now!

My O2 mini is currently working ok with a 1GB SD card. However when I try to use a 2GB SD card, it always pops up the message "Do you want to try to format this storage card to make it readable? This will permanently delete any files on the card. Yes. No."
After I go ahead and format it, it says "This storage card has been successfully formatted". But the card does not show up in File Explorer. Also on removal and re-insertion of the card it shows the Formatting message all over again and again. This card is a "MyFlash Turbo" Card purchased from Singapore and it works perfectly fine in my USB card reader. I've tried copying files onto the card using the card reader. When I load this card in my O2 mini it again pops up the formatting option. When I format it in the O2 and try to read it through the card reader, the windows OS now tells me that this card is not formatted.
I don't know what to make of this. Can any one give me a solution to make the card recognized by my O2 mini?
Best Regards
same problem here bought my card in singapore too... some people have reported it to work. Would appreciate if someone could figure it out.
Maybe it's a specific brand that does not work?

Well that's what I thought, but this card seems to work ok through the card reader so I can't figure out if it's card or the xda mini which is at fault ??? Meanwhile my xda mini accepts my other cards. Any one has any clues as to what might be the problem ?

that's mean the SD card is not compatible with magician. I also got the same problem with only 256mb SD card. it's probably running on a not compatible frequency with magician.

Running a different frequency? I thought there was a SD compatible format, and that all SD card are made accordingly...
I had the same thing with my Sandisk Ultra 2GB. What I did was pair the device with my laptop and explor to the SD card via the explorer in Activesync. I then created a folder called Temp. After I did this, the file explorer and magician would see the card with no problems.
Hope it help

I have exactly the same problem with the MyFlash (AData) 2GB as well on my O2 Mini.
Swap 3 cards already (different batches) and all had the same problem.
I've experience problem copying files to it from my laptop as well. I used a USB2.0 SD reader/writer and copied a large 900MB file to it - got the following error after a while:
Windows Delayed write error. Path is too deep
My Explorer hangs from that point. Same thing happened for all 3 cards.
I'm staying away from this AData 2GB for now.
cheers,

I've had the same problem with this card on my JAM- simply does not recognise it at all (therefore cannot even try Mashie's method).
Tried it on my mate's XDA ii and it works straight away (ended up selling to him). What is it with these not supporting particular 2GB cards.
I think as a rule of thumb, those 2GB card which are 60x speed should work:
Sandisk - probably not the Extreme III
ATP 2GB
PNY 2GB
All of these are far more expensive than the Adata and others from the far east.

ADATA My Flash 1GB card doesn't work as well.
Have you tryed to format the card with your SD-Reader card? or best install Pocket Mechanic and try format with some other FAT options.
Good luck!
I bought an ADATA myflash MMCplus turbo 2GB 200x from us and it worked out of the box on my magician .109€.

The only obvious differences between this one the other ADATA one is that this one is MMC and a faster speed.
Still strange that it does work (or why this one works and not the others).
I have ordered yet another 2GB SD; will post to let you guys know if it works or not.
Well, I've been using my SDHC for a while. Been getting lots of memory corruptions, so I just place it in my card reader and reformat the card.
My card got corrupt again, so I thought I would upgrade to the latest ROM update, and would format the card and start again.
So I upgraded the ROM on my trinity, performed a format on my card and then stuck the card into the trinity after my ROM had been updated. Strange ... it wants to format the card, I clicked yes... then a few seconds later it reported an error (i didnt make not of it). I try reading the card from the trinitiy ... then from my PC and now I cant read the card at all.
I have tried on another PC (Windows XP on both).
I have tried WM5torage, I have tried Panason Format, I have tried Pocket Mechanic. Does anyone have any ideas? Its almost like the pocket PC cant see the card at all, and whatever the format did do to the car when it stopped, totally killed it off. Anyone with any ideas?
It's toast
Same thing happened to me.

I had an issue like that with my SDHC card. I took it to the local electronics shop and formatted it in a new SDHC compatible digital camera. Now it works again . I don't thing that it is a good idea to format an SDHC card in your Trinity.
Hi
I'm having such problem. Tried different types of SD cards, first one was Trancend 16GB class 10 (high speed). Second one Trancend 8GB class 6 (medium speed). Third one some noname 4GB... So, I've got the same reading problem with all of them; intermittent reading and even card recognizing issue which is rendering SD card reader useless on device. I should highlight the thing that all cards perfectly being read in all other devices when pulled out of Shift and inserted in any of another devices. Tried to do different things, reinstalled drivers few times and so far... Seems this is strange hardware issue (compatibility issue?) arises in windows 7 enviroment. It's so upsetting, I don't want to come back to slugish Vista but I really need SD card reader!
I did not see many posts about it, so is anyone else having similar problem? Can you please share ideas and solutions of the problem if you overcame it.
i was having the same problem but after i did a windows update it was working fine, i have a A-DATA SDHC 16GB card.

In my XP PC no problem with this Dual Adapter !
Sniffff, i'm sad
SD card
Hello, so I use an SD card Transcend 32GB Class 10 and when inserted into the slot, but not log in to read it, but when you connect to the Internet and runs a minute and we can enjoy. When the shift to fall asleep again I have to pull the card and the data again and goes, but I'd wanted to tread do not normally have someone an idea or gimmick? Thank you for your reply, Mirek
someone solved?
I have the same problem
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 !

but...it's impossible! simply cuz with wm6.5 and wp7 it works perfectly! And on the PC too! In fact yesterday i came back to wm6.5 and the SD works well...

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

Good Luck mate - i know how annoying this issue is!
Ok...I've bought a new Lexar 16GB MicroSD Class 4 to replace my old Sandisk 8GB Class 4 card.
I copied everything across. However, I get random phone freezing.
The freezing only occurs when I have the new MicroSD in. I've replace it already with a new one, but it seems my phone doesn't like it.
I've tried:
1) Checking drive for errors
2) Reformatting drive using Windows
3) Reformatting drive using Android
4) Factory Reset phone
But its still the same.
[EDIT] It seems that Android is corrupting something on my card, because when I run chkdsk it comes up with the "Errors are Fixed" dialog....it says it puts the :"files in a 'FOUND' folder". However when I look into the MicroSD, there is no 'FOUND' folder. Also, copying files to and from the MicroSD card in Windows works fine.
HELP! and thanks.

Ok..I'll give it a go. Using SD Formatter with Full (Overwrite) option. I hope this works.
[EDIT] SD Formatter has not solved problem. Also, reformatting in 8k, 16k, 32k, 64k not working.
