Hey guys, got a huge problem, I rooted my HTC Magic, it was working and all, but now (I'm using Fatality HERO) it doesn't startup, it gets stuck on the HERO screen. Even worse is my phone turned itself off after saying SD Card corrupted.... and now when I cm recovery, it doesn't recongise the damn SD card, I've tried the reset thing by holding home and back, I'm totally lost. HELP!

32a or 32b?
32B, although I seemed to have fixed it. I dug out the original 2GB MicroSD, put another Fatality ROM on it, and reflashed the ROM on, works now I'm wondering what to do with my 8GB mSD card though. Should I pop it back into my HTC a reformat it? Or will it kill the phone again?

I just use this thing.
http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/
Or the built in one in the RAv1.2.1 recovery rom.
Haha fixed that too Lolz!
ok so rather than realize that the sd card was the problem, you rebooted and wiped your phone. the first step you should have taken was to reformat the sd card. when you use the sd card to run apps there is a higher chance of corruption.
Nah, it said the SD was corrupt, wouldn't let me format, then my phone ran out of battery, which was Then my problem started because obv. it doesn't mount the SD card, and my backup image is on there. When I booted up, it got stuck on the HERO screen... blah blah..... Well, it's working now, although, now with a formatted SD, I don't have a backup of my original ROM, which is lame. I was lucky to have a spare SD, or I would have been done for!
MOD EDIT
Thread moved to general discussion as not rom related
The Fatal1ty ROM has a problem with SD cards, every time you mount via USB and then unmount, it tells you the card has corrupted. After you reboot your phone it comes back though. I would use one of the other Hero ROMs instead.
ur ans

then do 2 second option i think update using update.zip
it will do it work then reboot it
tadaaaa u get the os back
enjoyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!
hmmm
almost every 2 days i have to format my sd card, it keeps getting corrupt :/ i am using fatal1tys hero rom, but i cant update another rom because i always get an error message when i try to load a rom, i have a 32b mytouch
So... I was trying to partition my external SD card for some ext3 action, and I went through ROM Manager. After booting me into recovery and repartitioning my "SD Card", I think it actually repartitioned my internal SD card because now my device won't boot and I'm trying to reimage through Odin. Has anyone done this yet? Am I screwed? I get through all of the boot animations but it seems to be hanging on the GalaxyS animation and then goes to a black screen but the onscreen keys are lighting up....
Should I try booting into recovery and wiping? During the Odin process it tries that, and it shows that the wipe fails in red. Is there any way to restore the internal SD card partitions to default?
Thanks! If I'm missing a sticky or thread somewhere else, let me know. I've been all over this forum since the device was released so I feel I'm fairly familiar with the processes involved.
It wiped the internal SD card and so I can't even get into ClockWork recovery or try to reset factory defaults.
Oh well. Lesson learned. If anyone else is thinking about doing this in ROM Manager, DONT. YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE. Took it to the store and they gave me a new one. It was doing some other funky stuff too, so I don't feel too bad.
Oh I just wrote the whole thread for fixing it

I rcently was on cm7 and then decided to go back to stock the only thing was odin 1.3 and 1.7 keot gettung stuck, my sister accidentally clicked repartition and i unplugged it before it got any further. i did the going back to stock process like 5 times and kept getting stuck. I waited an hour then tried again and now it worked , i installed cm7 and my sd card or any other one i put in the doesnt read it, it doesnt even say sd card inserted?
thoughts?
Did you try looking in /emmc ? It doesn't read the micro sd in the usual format on CM7.
I think you have to odin again, then flash a rom like trigger then flash cm7
ty so much JMC! u solved my prob its in emmc...thanks is on the way
So, i've been running CM7 for a few days and i noticed some issues with sprint coverage in my area so i decided to restore my sense rom backup i made before flashing CM7 to see if updating my PRL would do anything (doesn't hurt to check right?)
i restore the backup and boot the rom (MikMik Sense 2.1 3.0 hybrid 2.45) and it doesn't boot properly (loads walpaper and notification bar but no unlock ring) i reboot it once and no luck.
so i reboot into recovery and mount USB mass storage to copy a fresh sense rom on to my SD card and my windows 7 box pops up and says the SD card contains errors (like after a dirty disconnect) and all my stuff is gone except a folder for recovery (TWRP)
lot of my stuff was backed up except for a few pictures from yesterday and all my texts. (using SMS Backup)
i don't THINK the SD card is bad, this is the second time my phone has done this (two different cards)
i'm running a tool to try to recover data from the card then i'm gonna test the snot out of it and see if it's bad or not.
i know i know i should backup all the time, luckily it was only a few days worth of stuff that i lost (and all my Nandroid backups) just the point that my phone ate my SD card.
needed to vent. *puts the hammer away before something gets broken*
Edit: one thing i should mention, recovery took a LOOOONG time (25 or 30 minutes) to create / verify md5 when i backup my CM7 install using nandroid (using TWRP 1.0.3)
I have a similar problem with my wife epic phone. So I try to restore back to stock but then it brick. So I had no choice to send it in for repair and they successful restore it back to stock. The best thing to do is restore back stock completely when everything else fails.

I've had this happen to me twice while on synergy. What worked for me was to pop my sd card into a sd adapter and then a sd card reader and then back up all my info to my pc. Then a simple format of the sd card which will erase everything. Then put all your stuff back onto your sd card. If you were partitioned then run the band, once completed while still in recovery you'll have to repartition. Then reboot and you should be good to go.
All this with amon ra v2.3
Hope this helps.

Hi. Ok so I rooted my NC to CM7 sometime last year, and now with all the blah about markets not working and having to do more about it, not to mention the PIA it is to get books on, I decided to put it back to stock. Which apparently was a big mistake.
First I mounted an older version of clockwork to the SD card, then when I figured that out (having format data error) I did the newer 3.2.x.x one. So that went good, I went through the steps and reformated data and system, and then went to upload the zip from the choose zip part, but it says there are no files. So I backed out, took out the SD and put it in my computer(Macbook pro) to try to put it in again but it wont show up at all? I tried looking in Disk Utility too and its not there. Any ideas where my card is? What do I do next?? I have nook complete restore 1.0.1, 1.0.0 and nook color update 1.4.1 on my desktop, I thought I had 1.0.1 on the SD card.
I've been reading and googling all over, I can't find what could've made my SD card disappear?
Thanks, I know you must get these all the time and I really appreciate your help-
Ok I didn't do anything, but it just started up to the little silver N and is now sitting there? Is that a good thing?
Don't panic. The NC is very hard to permanently brick. From what you've described, it sounds like your SD card may have gone bad or been corrupted. I'd just try again.
The 'n' logo is a good thing, but if it hangs there, be sure you've followed all the steps carefully. That's typically a sign that /data wasn't formatted, though from your description, you got that step.
Sorry I can't offer up anything more specific. Do be aware that you can restore back to 1.3 if you don't want to go back to 1.01
It happened to me and what I did is plugged my sdcard into my android phone and format it and start over again.
I did that couple time during first attempt to install CM7 on my nook
Hope this helps ! Good luck!
Try plug it into different computer(s) along with using usb-adapter.
The Eausus Partition program works well to wipe/format cards too...
