Are you able to read it from your PC? Use a card reader and read it through your PC.
If you formatted the card in NTFS then the phone will not be able to read it. You'll need to format it in FAT32 with atleast an 8KB allocation unit size (this will help a little bit with speed)
still

it might be a duff sd card. i had this problem last week. all of a sudden my sandisk 8gig sd card wouldnt work , my phone wouldnt read it and nor could my pc. i tryed formatting it on my pc. but my phone still woundnt read it. i have heard that the hd2 sometimes does this to sd cards .
i bought mine from carphone warehouse so i rang them and they said i could get a replacement so that has saved me 20 quid.
i would probaly get a new sd card.
thanks mate..appreciate it
having similar problems with my 2g sandisk card that came with the phone. except somwtimes it doesnt get recognised then out of the blue starts working. ahen its not recognised the phone knows a card is inserted. with file explorer open if i plug it in it jumps to the bottom of the file list but no sdcard shpws.
its weird as it just starts workibg again. no apparent data loss. gonna get a better card
My SD card drains the battery on the HD2.
Any suggestions??

wiping doesnt do anything to your sd card
Refomat?
Well Could I just use the onscreen selection on my phone to reformat or will this cause problems.

that i dont know. i just use a card reader and format then depending on what build im using i wipe and start fresh
same thing happened to me last week on one of the dudes builds. My sd card was ruined. I tried to reformat it and then repartition it but it wouldnt let me repartition even though i deleted the old one. I messed with it for hours, before some one told me that it was ruined. all the transfering of info back and forth fried it i guess. I ended up buying a new one, this time class 6 (old one was class 2) I got it for 20 bucks (8gb) not to shabby of a price! sorry for your misfortune. Good luck

The same thing happened to me about 4 days ago, however Im running cyangones 3.4 Rom not the dudes, tell me ....were you running any themes at the time like the hero theme or any other? Are you using apps to sd as in do you have your sd card partitioned ? Im trying to figure out why this happened to me also, as of right now it has happened twice in 4 days then, I wiped my phone, reformatted / repartitioned my sd card and am not using any custome theme with cyanogens 3.4 rom and it seems to be ok. I only have a few apps right now because I want to make sure it doesnt happen again before I load up my sd card again with apps.
i had no themes and i was using app2sd. but i wasnt using any apps at the time.. just thought i would ad my 2 cents

Yes maybe because its class 2 8 gigs
And yes to other gut I does has some hero in the dude 1.3r2. bout to try to reformat I guess tell you what happens in a minute.
ok
I reformatted then put files back on G1(including the dudes cupcake 1.3r2(cant give up on the perfect mod lol)) then wiped and Alt-s....only diffrence this time is that i am gonna use appmanager and not put everything on class 2 8 gig so it will not burn out...and hopefully it want destroy my sd card.Thankx to everyone you guys were a big help.
very interesting topic....
same here:
I tried with 3 other sdcards, 2 of them are 100% ok, NO GO, doesnt work anymore. First I thought that my G1 reader has a problem, some time it works, some time not. Im on dudes 12b with apps2sd. The fact that no card works tells me:
- Phone error
or
- Software problem (really strange if this is the problem)
I wipe right now and will tell you if the card works again....
i had similar problem last week when switching from cyan 3.4 to dudes 1.3 i first tried just doing an alt - w and that gave me a lot of errors and force closes so i started over and reformatted/repartitioned my sd. Now my sd card doesnt read when i plug into pc but still works in phone. everytime i want to change/edit sd i have to pull sd out and use an adapter..it sucks cuz the lil sd latch is such a pain to open and close on the g1..
ok wipe didnt anything... really strange thing I can do nothing anymore, card is not readable (in pc it is readable, but not in my g1)....
Config:
Dudes 1.2b
No themes, no extras
APPS2SD, 500 MB EXT Partition
8 GB Class 6 Card
If anyone has a hint for me, any help is welcome.
could this have something to do with apps2sd... this is happening to me as well, and it only started when i switched from jac 1.4 to the dudes 1.3rc1 it works good for about 24 hours sans the bluetooth issue. then the next time i check the phone its all whacked out and says to reformat the card.
Found this, hope that helps, unfortunately I dont have an external reader here:

Turns out this is no more than an annoyance affecting the 1.5 JF builds. (not sure it's exclusive to those).
Anyway, long story short. The phone will always complain about the partitioning on the sd card and offer to "fix" the problem by re-formatting.
The key to the problem is to reboot the phone after the card has been re-partitioned. This will make the annoying pop-up dissapear and keep the partitioning table as defined.
Blank
Rerun apps to SD, uninstall reinstall all listed apps.
I had had this happen also. But I think most of it was my doing. I have a bad habit of not removing device safely after I copy files, I just use the eject button lol.. my p.c. even told me that I had removed usb device before the files were finshed bing prossed.. well whatever happend it didn't fry my card I just had to reformat it and. Run martins great skrip over agin and it was good to go.. I even went to buy a new usb cable just in case lol .. on hero/rosie running smooth ; )
well been using the standerd 2gb sd card with my phone fine but upgraded toa 16gb card over the last 2 days...
soo i took the files of my old card using active sync
put the new card in the phone.. formatted it then transfered the new files.. gets to about 250mb then says... write protected please make sure the file is not in use bla bla.. sometimes it gets to 2gb but it always does it on a diffrent file and none of them are protected and the card shouldent be as its formatted and 16gb
can anybody help or does anybody think its a duff card?
any help would be much greatful!
Thank you
Sam Morgan
forgot to say the sd card quick fix is installed aswell
Don't use Activesync to copy the files - use Disk Mode.
tried using disk mode but still get the dodgey things of writing a certain amout.. not being able to delete some files.. even after i just put them on there... any way ive orderd a new class 6 16gb card from a data and hopefully should do the trick as i think this chinese crap is duff
your case sounds awfully familiar to those of the people who bought the "16gb usb pendrive" from chinese resellers, which were actually 1gb pendrives with modified onboard chips to make it appear as 16gb devices. The first GB you copied was fine, but whenever you tried to access data over that limit wyou would obviously get errors. In this case, if you bought a cheapo card from an "unkown" seller, he probably gave you a 256MB hacked microsd.
also worth making sure the card is formatted to fat 32,4096 block size for best results.
thanks for the replies guys...
samsamuel: i used the formatting tool on the phone
oh just tried formatting again it saud card is broken or damaged then tried againa and let me format it... must be broken then

Hi all ive just bought a 16 GB micro SD card for my HD2. When I put in in it completely hangs my Phone. If I put it in then boot, it wont start it just stays in a boot cycle. If I put it in when WM has started it just becomes totally unresponsive and when I remove the card WM resumes normal working. The thing I dont understand is, that it works perfectly in the PC reading and writing. Ive formatted it a few times, no difference.
Any Help much apreciated.
RReckless
PS yes I did search
Have you tried doing a full format and not just a quick format?
Ricey
Yep I could understand if it just didnt work well on the phone or if it was an intermitant thing or if it was sluggish but it totally freezes it.
Hard Reset you phone and format SD card again this resolve you problem.
does any other SD Card work fine in the phone (what size)?
You formatted it with your computer, what settings did you format it to?
Thanks for all your help and sorry for wasting your time but the card is faulty. I thought it was working perfectly on the pc because it appeared to be writing to it and formatting properly but the data then couldnt be read.
Thanks again

Go download H2testw 1.4 and do R+W+V on it.
i installed the XBmod-Yuki rom a couple of days ago, and today i wanted to install an android rom. but although i'd switched back from and to wp7 many times, this time i can't format the sdcard. the thing is, my computer won't recognise it at all. i've tried usb mass storage from magldr, and via a card reader with an adapter.(i also tried both methods with another sd card and i confirmed them working.) for a moment i thought that the sd was dead, but when i reflashed wp7, the phone recognised it. so what should i do? i obviously can't format it, since the computer won't even see it. any ideas?
have the same problem ;(
