Hi guys. I got a problem with my SD card after I recorded a video on my Nexus One (rom from Paul for very first Froyo over my rooted Nexus). I tried to to mount the SD card to my computer, but after clicking on the mounting button, the card appeared to have something wrong and displayed the warning message "SD Card blank or has unsupported filesystem". I could not access to the data on the card. I cared about my data so I tried to get the card out and used a card reader to read the content of the card from my Windows machine, but it seemed that Windows could not recognized the card. I thought the card was spoiled. I tried to save the card anyhow by trying to format it since I had the backup data on my computer already. Because I could not see the card on my Windows, I could not format it. I tried to format it on my N1, but after clicking on the format button, nothing happened. It seemed that my SD card was really spoiled.
But actually, I found a way that could help to save the SD card for my case. My solution is to try to partition the SD card using the ultility from my Recover section (I am using RA for nexus 1.7.0). The card after partitioning seems to work ok again. So I think the problem for my case is that the recording application already overwrote some data to the partition table on the card and that made my card inaccessible. Partioning the card again will help in this case but about the existing data on the card, I am not quite sure if it is still there. For my case, it's all gone.
Just a little experience to share ...
Hope this solution helps! Am doing the recovery thing now...

You can try to partition your card on an Android phone with RA 1.7.0 (or newer) installed. You can have a look at following page which is about RA for nexus v1.9.0 alpha:

Good luck.
thanks man !
will give it a try... i first have to figure out how to get my phone into recovery mode. the three button method does not work for me.

whoa whoa if you have a galaxy s, do NOT flash the one he linked to. that is for the nexus one only. if you need to partition in windows, try plugging in the card to a reader and opening disk management (type "disk management" w/o quotes after pressing the windows key)
right click the card and hit format
Check your data before formatting it may not be corrupt
I had the same problem, rather than format the card straight away, I mounted it in ra recovery so that it was accessible over usb, then copied off all my data before formatting the card.
Hi all.
I have a 16gb micro sd card class 2 (sandisk).
Yesterday the message "damaged sd card" came on my notification bar.
I tried to format the card but i got no luck. With every i use i got errors (gparted, windows native tool, ubuntu disk manager).
So i bought a 8gb micro sd card class 4 (maxell) for replacement.
Sadly my htc legend doesn't accept this card neither...same message.
This time i'm sure the card is ok...because it works fine on any PC/Device i tried (including my girlfriend's samsung spica).
At first i though i might got an usb brick...so tried
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
with no luck...then i tried flashing another rom (aliba's Cyanogen 6.1, SuperBler V4)...same behaviour.
with dispair I took my girlfriend's 2gb microsd (sandisk) and tried this time with success!!
So 2 gb sdcard works.
8 gb not.
what do you suggest, crappy new sd card? or my phone got problems with sdhc?
What's brought all the old devs back?!
I've never seen that kind of behavior before... Hmm...

errors bring us here!
I can add one more to the solving puzzle:
in recovery (S-OFF) i can mount the card but while coping/reading it gives me I/O errors and than i have to reboot recovery to let it read some more (till a next I/O error...)
!!!
I'm Experiencing the same proplem. Yesterday I got the same error message "Damage SD card" I cant go into clockwork recovery mode to format SD card, I get the E:faliled to open/Sdcard/update.zip(no such file or directory). Its a 4GB Sd card and Im running CyanogenMod-7.0.0.-RC0-Legend-Kang....

I'm waiting to try a different SDHC card. I think it's related to bad quality sdhc.
I was able to format the SD card via PC recoverywindows.bat...so far no problems but who knows maybe in a near future I will probably get the DAmage SD card message again.
I had the exact same thing myself a while back. Although it probably won't help you, I took it out and cleaned the contacts (no doubt superfluous but you have to try everything, right?) and put it back in (twice), and it worked. It's been running fine for months now
Hi Chaps
Got probs with my 16gb class 4 micro sd card.
Bought an htc hd2 off ebay last week which came with the above card and winmo 6.5.
I wanted to test out WM7 which I did, didn't enjoy it so tried to get Android working.
Now I came across the 199mb problem which I fixed no probs but now the sd card will just not play ball in CWM. It says it makes the partitions but this is instant and should take a few minutes being a 16GB sd card. When I come to mount the thing it just error's and says cannot mount sd card.
I've tried doing a full erase using the samsung sd tool and that took over 3 hours to complete which is strange. I've also used the tool to create partitions which it does without any problems.
If I put the SD card in my fiancee's HTC Desire and mount and format it it works fine but when I come to mount it on my hd2 it still can't mount it.
I also have a 4GB micro sd card which is class 2 and this works perfectly with CWM both with partitioning and mounting.
I'm on the verge of snapping this card in half and buying a new one so before I do I thought I'd ask on here for any advice.
Many Thanks
Use Panasonic SD Formatter and format using that. Should work then. No even need for a full erase, but if you want you can, but not needed. It should recover the rest of the SD card.

Cheers for that, done a quick format and it finished but now windows won't read it. Just comes up with the message disk is not formatted do you want to format it now.
Is this normal?
No problem. Erm well I've formatted my 8GB class 8 using that and I've never encountered that problem. When your formatted did it come up that it was restored to 14/15GB? You might aswell go ahead and format it.

Duh me, I had to remove it from the laptop and back in for windows to pick it up.
Just tried mounting the sd as USB storage and I get the following error
"E:Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)"
Trying to mount the sd card I get this error:
"E:failed to mount /sdcard (No such file or directory) Error mounting /sdcard!"
As soon as I put my 4bg sd card in and try to mount it it works straight away
That's very odd. I don't know very much about SD cards/memory so I wouldn't know what's wrong with that.
I think you're best off getting a new card as I think that ones maybe worn out.
I recommend you don't use ebay for sd cards, they can easily be poor copies, just buy them from a recognised store, Amazon or Play
Cheers for the help guys. Think I'll just stick it in the digital camera as that seems to work fine and buy a new one from amazon or play.
yeah.. dont ever buy memory cards from ebay...
i tried buying one 32gb microsd before..
my comp doesnt even detect it..
Im in magldr ad recovery went to install zip from sd card and it keeps saying no files found. Please help asap
Reboot your phone with sd-card inserted.
did that...still says no files found...why?
Marvelez
can you offer anymore help? im losing it right now
Check your sd-card in your computer, and make sure it is working, also try to clean it and it's house from dust.
No files found is an error due to the phone unable to reach the sd-card.
standby please
still not working

maybe contacts oxidized or a bit dirty. take out your sd-card and look at its contacts - clean contacts should shine.

Thanks for answer, but i dont think so, because i still window phone 7.5 in my phone. Because rom android on sd? I dont known, no body take a question like me. I use rom android of boxmax v3.
Please help me!
You can't mount SD Card because Android is running off the SD card. It reads the data.img on the SD card as internal storage and doesn't detect any SD card (I think) so it won't work. Also, in future please use a proper thread title, 'Question' tells us nothing about your problem

Hmm i remember there being some sort of trick to allow one to still mount the SD card , this was on my Sprint Touch Pro 2 running Froyo , but i dont see why it wont work here . Maybe if you partition the SD card ? I cant remember exactly what it was i'll browse around over on PPCGeeks to see if i can find it

Pls help me.
I faced the same problem.
I'm using WP7.5 on NAND.
And Android 2.2 Sense on SD CARD.
Doesn't read anything from the sd card. Doesn't read my APKS etc..( I had massive data corruptions)
So i ended up removing Wp7.5 and reinstalling Android back.
SD partition of Android should be set to Primary which means you should have two Primary partition for WP7 & Andy.
you should see those in mini partition tool
