Hi guys... I have the worst problem since I bought this brilliant device: I was playing with a game (installed on the mini SD), and when I tried to save it told me I had not enough storage space. Puzzled, I ended the game and went back to the normal pda functions...just to find out my SD is not recognized anymore. Zero, nada. Disappeared. Tried to get it out and in again (a million times), and I don't even get the sound I used to get. I tried fitting the minisd to the sd adapter and put it in an old zire: the card works!Everything is there. But the wizard won't recognize it anymore. Tried soft reset and it didn't help... Not so keen on hard resetting unless it is the only option but...I'm dazed...It doesn't see it anymore.I admit I was playing the game at 240 mhhz (overclocked) but I had played it a million times already and everything was smooth... PLEASE HELP!
same here im having this problem. it's annoying as hell!

I have had the problem of the memory card seemingly disappearing.
On checking closer, I noticed I had 'Storage Card' and 'Storage Card2'
Storage Card had one file on it and everything else was still on Storage Card2.
By deleting Storage Card abd soft reset, all was restored.
This has happened a couple of time.
If this happens to you, make sure you delete the right one.
Storage card
I've never unlocked the extended rom (Storage_card_2), so i have just Storage Card, a 1 Gig Sandisk mini SD. Still, it dissapears a couple of times a day, and i must soft reset my wizard to appear again. Very, very frustrating
Missing data
Something similar has happened to mine as well....
I turned my PDA on and accessed the storage card just like I do on any other day, only to find that all of the files had disappeared!! Everything had gone - but when I went into the memory setting, where it tells you how much space is used on the card it is still showing up as being half full i.e. the data is still there but not showing up on explorer!!
What is this all about??!! It has never happened to me before!!
Just wish I could offer an explanation on how to fix this...
You can probably read those files in Windows. This memory card disappearing problem seems to occur frequently with Wizard. Lookslike some program keeps corrupting the memory card.
Format the card in Windows and put it back in your phone, it will most likely work.

If you format the card, surely it will wipe everything that was on there in the first place..?!
There must be a way of retrieving those missing files somehow without resorting to formatting...
The weird thing is, today I transferred a single file from my desktop to the Sd card (whilst in my XDA) and suddenly some of the missing files appeared...?!
Now to find the rest of them....
I would love to have storage card 2 or something like that, but all I get is...the same behaviour I'd get if NO sd was in. I don't want to hard reset UNLESS somebody can confirm me this works...I am so desperate, it kinda looks like the sd reader is dead...all of a sudden! Please guys help...
I hard resetted and still it doesn't work...I'll take it to a shop to repair...I am totally disappointed!
I had this, the card came back after I just placed it in a card reader, browsed it on a pc, then replaced it in the phone.

What is do
It happens to me too - if I go into file explorer, I see storage_card and storage_card_2. The contents of storage_card_2 are exactly those of my SD. If I delete storage_card, remove and re-insert my SD, storage_card_2 disappears and storage_card is as it should be...
It was an sd problem...as soon as I have formatted it started to work again...
hope that sorts it for you guys if you have this annoying problem...
ok.
my SDCard is ****ed, basically. i thought a good old format would do the trick but i was sadly mistaken.
it can read and display pictures, but cannot display thumbnails.
it shows mp3 files in file managers but wont play them in any music player.
will sometimes let me copy files from the card to the computer but not the other way round.
files cannot be deleted from the card at all.
and now the strangest one, it seems to be unaffected by a complete format.
the format finishes, i can then open up the card (which now shows as empty) from the computer and move files to it, so i eject it and remount it and low and behold everything's there again except for the files i put on after the format.
i don't know what to do as i can't really do much without an SD card =/
anyone got any ideas?
same. mine's been corrupt for a while now with reformat only making it work for a few hours/days.
i'm not sure if this is the crappy card that came with it or the g1's fault...has there been many cases of this?
i'm just buying an 8gb microsd from microcenter for $20 in the next week...i'll deal with my current one until then.
Just buy a new one, its not like they're expensive.
My brand new 8 GB Kingston MicroSD(HC) simply refused to cooperate - The G1 never saw anything I wrote to it on my computer - the computer never saw anything saved by the camera to the microSD. To boot, it even only reported as < 500 MB on the G1. Using the HP USB mem tool (http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=197) I came to the point where the G1 saw 4 GB, but still no way to transfer anything to or from the computer.
Finally, I found this http://rivviepop.wordpress.com/2008/11/11/fix-your-g1-android-messed-up-sd-card/ (requires Linux) that solved the situation. Now both my computer and G1 sees all of the card, and what's on it.Phew!

I just get my HD2 phone on Jun10, it come with free 8gb mini sd card, so I insert ad go to tools folder then format it and use ... after 3 day the phone suddenly appear "you want to format memory" ... then I know my SD card got something wrong ...
So I press yes to reformat ...but no help .. every time insert the phone detect a new memory card insert and ask for format. I have no choice go and buy another 8gb mini sd card ..
This time can stay longer until yesterday when I apply BsB setting and restart the phone I get the same massage again .." would you like to format memory card" ...... try and try ..the mini sd card also can not use ... even the computer can't detect this 2 card when I plug on it.....
I wonder is it a defect design on HD2 .. the card slot look like at the processor area .. b'cos when I watch movie or long hrs browse net ..that area was getting hot?? or 8GB too big to support ..
I very frustrated, it is not b'cos of $$$ but is all my hard work for this few week ie: all the picture and short video then I recorded ...
Spoilt SD 8gb card
Hi there,I have just make a one to one exchange with the HTC service center without any question asked as long as your phone is still under warranty.It seems that this problem happen occasionally to those who own Htc Hd2.I've read some forum indicate the problem still happenning.So,I've to have a backup cum standby card with fully download all my favourites Tips and Threat with me,just to play safe.Is it the Card manufacturer fault or the phone developement not essential enough to access the card,any solution?
Hello friends,
I have been facing black screen problem everytime in 2.2. İt always happern when I watch video or picture from sd card. Whwn I set the phone to sleep and open it, always black screen comes, something writes and phone closes.
I am using standart sd card and it is 2gb.
Can you help me about this problem?
hey, same problem, also using standard 2gb sd card.
try it for a day without your sd card in, worked for me, but i need sd card for music,pics everything so im going back to 2.1 til this is sorted,
greast rom, but need my phone working 24/7 and dont need to check it constantly to see if its hanged or frozen or the usual line of code,
but still great rom
I think it occurs from sd card, it happens whwnever I reach to sd card. I wonder why everybody does not live the same problem?
will it be useful if I format the sd card or get a better(class 6) sd card?
i think there has to be a common factor between it, obviously isnt software because there would be more ppl with errors and such.
ok my sd card were/are used in the following devices :-
xbox 360 as portable device to play mp3's through a cheapo usb card reader
win7 lappy through phone usb
similar stuff or ?
if ur still on 2.2 have you tried turning off debug mode when your using phone normally, might have an effect?
and does it also constantly remount when you unlock your phone?
sorry for the lots of questions but im interested now, this is the only thing stopping me from keeping 2.2, had 2.1 back all day and no issues, happy phone again
ı changed sd card and formatted but again crashes when phone unlocked.
any help please?
the black screen is known as screen of death (sod), try changing the kernel verson, or the radio, it is not a sd problem, i have done it and it is working fine on mine
Sick and tired of this.
50% of time it's acting normally, other 50% it turns itself off and on continously, basically giving me a limited time span to copy files onto the SD card.
Also, another question - is it possible to turn off the automatic widget/program rearrange thing ? When you're on the homescreen or on programs listing screen, and when you hold your finger a bit longer, the phone automatically opens a "mode" which lets you rearrange your icons/widgets/etc, is there a possibility to turn that off ? Getting tired of sometimes holding my finger on the phone for a brief second more to have that rearrangement crap activated.
The problem is not your phone, but the cable or the computer.. Try to unistall your drivers and then reinstall or use another cable..
About disable screen widget option, i don't if it's possible, but try to use another launcher.. i recommend launcherpro..

tried with a different cable, didn't work, same **** as always ( the moment PC recognizes the phone and pops autoplay message for the SD card to browse it or w/e, phone freezes, then restarts, then works for like 20 seconds after first reboot, then shuts down entirely and starts rebooting slower and slower after each reboot, and when I take the cable out, the phone suddenly starts acting normal )
will try on a different PC, doubt it it's going to make a difference
|edit|
yep, same **** on different PC - so far 3 PCs and 2 different cables causing this problem, so yeah, I think it's safe to say that it's a problem with my mobile phone, or the SD card at least, cause when the Autoplay option pops up on my PC screen, the phone blocks
aye, it's the SD card, just tested with another one and I have no problems whatsoever
so.. does anyone have the original content of the Sony Ericsson shipped SD card that I could use to restore my SD card to it's original state ?
I can post mines..

Send me a mail
zvorkapic.osATgmail.com
I'll send it to you. Who knows what they ship on SD card in other countries.
edit:
it's little less then 200mb so it'll take some time to upload it. I'll send you the link by private message once it does.
Please inform me once you've downloaded it, so I can remove it from my server.
Xperia Bonbon je u pitanju! /i've deleted all mi personal **** from it, but if you find anything I missed such as my nude pictures and sex videos plase don't put it on youtube or flickr.

i experinenced the same problem when i root the phone.then connected via usb to pc companion and repaired and reinstall the phone os.
i had the problem after updating to official 2.1. found out that it didnt occur when i pressed "charge phone" on the display after plugging in and activating the usb drive afterwards.
maybe you'll find different drivers in this board, i installed something at some time and its gone now

Try this, it worked for me: (I wanted to give the link to SE forum where they talked about this, but I'm not allowed, not enough posts, they say)
This seems to be quite a common problem in X's, there has been some bug in notification tone in the device in regard to the PC companion, some sort of confrontation which makes the phone to reboot all the time. So, I went to the settings, "sound and display", "notification ringtone", change to "thinkerbell"
Also, uncheck the "SD card notification"!
My phone does not reboot now, hope it will stay that way!
cheers, doesn't reboot anymore !
