Music on SD card causes freezes - HD2 General

I have an HD2 running a recent version of Energy ROM. Everything is working fine, unless I try to put some music on the SD card. I have about 7.5 GB of music I want to put on there but every time I do the phone starts having random freezes. I though it might be the phone trying to index the music and knowing that the default card that comes with the phone is not very fast I went and bought a class 6 card as a replacement, but the problem persists. Anyone have any fixes/suggestions?

That can be caused by many things. First 2 I would check is make sure the folder structure is right Artist name/album/Mp3 & art if that is right I would check to make sure your mp3 tags are right. A search will lead you to a program to check your ID3 tags.

i had the same problem with music on my hd2, the way i fixed mine was to flash the evo rom on to it and the problem has never come back.

music touchflo freezes

hey everyone, i just got my blackstone yesterday and after uploading songs both through sync and manually into the storage card, my songs always freezes once i have an amount of about 50 or more. is this the stock firmware problem? is there a way to fix this?
I had that problem too, songs I dragged to the storage card would just stop after a few seconds of playing in AudioManager, or not play at all.
For me it worked better after I started to sync all songs through active sync and media player. I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but I also just synced about 10 songs at a time and didn't have the audio manager tab open. Because I was scared it would happen again, I didn't put more then 500mb of songs on the storage card yet.
The storage card included with the phone is class2. I wonder, will a class 6 storage card solve these kind of problems better?
Also I wonder, would it help to make a back-up of the AudioManager_Eng.vol after syncing all the songs?
I used to get this on the bog standard crappy Orange ROM that came with the device. It would be fine until I loaded in Santogold by Santogold. Nothing would load after that and if you tried to play anything, it'd freeze up and I'd get an audio manager error or something. In the end, I entered the world of ROM flashing. Has made the phone more usable for sure.
I have the same problem. However, the problem doesn't occur if I bypass the touchflo music interface and use the Windows Media Player that came with it.

HTC HD2 performance issue

I've recently bought a brand new HTC HD2.
It was working just fine untill I transferred around 700+ music files(6Gigs worth of space) on the memory stick.
Ever since it has became really glitchy.
It freezes and sometimes just restarts itself.
6gb worth of music is nothing compared to what i have on my iPod.
Is this a known issue?
Is HTC HD2 not designed to load so much music on?
try removing music from the card and see if the problem stops, and always call your carrier and HTC to complain, f#3$s should be working hard on all these fixes
Well yeah, i removed the music... it works just fine.
This is so not... what i expected from HTC HD2.
Such an awesome phone, but ya what's the point of having
16 gigs of memory when your phone acts as its on down syndrome... when you have only about 6 gigs of music on it?
I have about 5GB of music no slowdowns whatsoever.... try reformating your microsd card, HR your phone, then load the music, then put it into the hd2... see how it goes..

if you have the t-mobile version then nothin is wrong with the phone...the memory card has a low class...a higher class memory card will work fine
there was a workaround mentioned a while ago that loads the music when the phone starts not when you open the music tab. I can't find it anymore but maybe that helps with your issue (btw I'm looking for that workaround too, can't find it anymore).
i beleive there is a fix something to do with sdcard power management basically your phone is scanning the sdcard and when u have lot sof files it can really mess with the phone but search the forums there should be a reg fix
HR your phone
@doctorcete: What does "HR your phone" mean?
Thanks
HR=Hard Reset

hey try these reg fixes in this post
should we apply all of those in that thread for it to stop searching?
The ones that have SDCARD in it but the others are good as well for battery management!

HTC HD2 Freeze Application Data on SD Card

I had my TMO HD2 for about 2 months now, and I upgraded the ROM right after I bought it to the latest official stock firmware. It has been working perfectly fine til yesterday. It froze while pressing the numbers to dial, but I could still go use the Sense UI and run other programs. Only the dialpad froze.
After some troubleshooting, I noticed the problem would disappear upon removing the SD card and a soft reset. I also noticed that if I delete the "Application Data/HTC" folder on the SD card and reinsert it the freezes does NOT occur. But after 1 day, those files regenerated and the freezing is occuring again. The files totalled over 45MB. I deleted them again, and the freezing as of now stopped.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening? Thanks.
the sd cards that came with the phone are crap.
Best bet is to copy over important info and format, scan and fix errors on the sd card, then put your stuff back on it.
I have bought a new memory card (class 6), and the freezing problem still occurs. Anyone have a solution? Thanks.
Those files are what Sense uses to index the music, etc on your SD card, and they reappear each time sense does a new reindex.
The problem you're seeing has sometimes ended up being related to bad album art or other metadata on one or more MP3's you have on the card, so you might want to first test by removing your music collection and seeing if that has any effect.
However, also note that having a music collection that is very large can also bog down the phone when sense tries to index it, that's a known issue on this phone...

[Q] Rebooting Issue, Help needed!

Hello Ya'all,
First and foremost, I would like to thank the forum and its members for the great supply of information and technology.
Device: HD2 is currently running YukiXDA's Windows Phone 7 ROM
Storage Device: Sandisk 8GB Class 4 MicroSDHC
Issue: I flashed my phone with Windows 7 after formatting the SD card with SD-Card formater for optimal results. The installation went perfect, the SD card was recognized, etc. and everything was working perfectly. I added pictures and music to it, no problems; however, when I put an additional album onto the HD2, the phone started freezing and rebooting quite frequently, with the occasional Storage card error; thus, I assumed (and read) that adding a little more music would patch up the problem. I tried it and to my surprise, the rebooting decreased, but the problem still persists. I know some of ya'all are probably wondering: "Go buy a new SD card," However, this is one of the cards that is known for being compatible quite frequently; thus, I can't be too sure whether I'm just wasting money or not. Any help would be appreciated.
This might sound hilarious; however, after updating to blackseven mango, my phone has not rebooted for the past 6 hours (It is infamous for rebooting every hour or so). I am going to test this out one more night and see what the problem is. I'm sure it is not related to the roms; however, it would restart with every NoDo Rom, but for some reason, it hasn't with this one.

Its most likely your SD card I personally have never had any problems with restarting and I have the Samsung SD card that came with my us hd2

the adding of music is the key, ive found that my card has portions that are fine, in fact its super quick and stable, but if i go and install something it will start resetting, if its the same issue as mine then keep dumping 50MB of junk on it until it becomes stable, i honestly do not know why this works unless WP7 is so sensitive to IOPS that even the slightest hicup will make it reset

Hi
I have had problems with alot of reboots, up till 5 per hour and some times when booting it just get stuck on a white og green screen so that i have to pull the battery. But that was untill i found this yesterday, i filled my phone up(from over 10 gb free to only 2gb free) and now it is running sooooo smooth not a reboot yet
So people with random reboots might noth have to by a new sd card. ???
Wish i found this before i ordered a 16 GB class 10 hehehe
Just a quick report back on this, after filling my sd card up with music i only had ONE reboot last night in stead of rebooting many times per day else it has been running all smoth.
So i must say this is a great result by just adding music to the phone

SD Card Help

Hi guys,
I need your help becasue this looks very weird to me. This is my situation: I have a I-9500 (Stock ROM 4.3, no root) with Kingston SD Card 16 GB Class 4. On the SD I keep only my music in one folder, nothing else. Also because I have a lot of music, more than 14 GB, the card is almost full. Sometimes the back of the phone where the SD slot is, becomes to warm up a lot and battery starts to drain very fast. It has happened to me in different situations (and also prior to update to 4.3): once I was indeed listening to music, so using the card, but another time I was taking photos and watching a video saved on the phone. Like I said, I save everything (ecxept music) on the phone.
To solve, I have to either take the card out or format it in the phone. Once I do either of them, the phone cools off and battery drain goes back to normal. Once it even went into a boot loop, before I realized I had to take the card out.
We have 3 options:
1. it's the phone
2. it is something in my music folder (I have photos of the cover albums, which shows up in Gallery... could this be the cause?)
2. it is the SD card brand, capacity, class... I read on many forums about problems with certain brands, even though, if I recall correctly, it affected mostly 64 GB cards...
I want to add I have a Note I-5100 with a Sandisk SD 32GB Class 4 and never had any problem, I want to swap the two, but I know that even if something happens, it will not be immediate and I prefer to have the big one in the note. If I knew changing SD would solve it, I would go for it immediately, but I would like to know what you think first. I have also read Samsung SD cards perform better in Samsung phones. Is this true?
Thank you very much for your help!
I just noticed that many album folders have a file named n7p_art, which is created by the music software (I use stock Samsung Music Player). could this be the cause?
