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 ; )
Pretty much exactly what the title says. I have Yuki's v4 lang 2 WP7 Rom installed, as well as Rafdroid's android SD build on my SD card. I would like to update to Yuki's v5 lang 2, but I don't want to do that if it's going to mean I have to reinstall WP7 and Rafdroids SD build losing everything because that takes forever and I don't want to lose all of my data. So if anyone knows how to do this without having to repartition the drives please point me in the right direction ! Thanks.
I was sort of wondering the same thing. This is something I want to try: Install the new ROM with no SD card on the phone, then factory reset and put the SD card back on while in magldr... I think it should work just like when resizing the wp7 partition to dual boot Android... but don't know for sure... Yet!
That might work, but I have a feeling when you flash without the SD card, some problems are likely to occur. That or when you put the SD card back in after flashing a new WP7, it might re-partition the drives to FAT16 and unallocated. I'll give it a go, because I'm going to put a new SD build on my card anyways, I'll let you know how it turns out.
EDIT: Nope that didn't work, it re-partitioned the drive just like I thought it would.
Anybody got any more ideas for other people to try?
idk if this will work, but if you have a spare sd card, flash it with that in it then put in the old one
I've also heard you can copy the partitions to a separate drive (such as a separate SD or USB hard drive) and then copy them back after you've reinstalled the WP7 ROM, however it didn't work for me (I'm using Xbmod v 1.11 NoDo). WP7 kept saying "Your storage card has changed, please format or replace blah blah" something like that.
You can try it but I would suggest just doing it the long way as you know it'll work, and you're less prone to make mistakes once you get it down (after wasting HOURS of making mistakes, I can reflash a windows ROM and re-partition everything including putting my Android build back in under 15 mins
hi

do you use winmo,and which rom do you want to flash, and what steps do you make?
Yes, i am using a winmo, HTC HD2
i tried many roms, and i am talking about the ROM, not android.
and on each ROM i tried to load different Android, but it still
do not work.........stuck on a screen every time
Basically i use "energy rom", http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784
and tried with American Android ((( this one worked on a first sd -card)))
steps from a beginning : i flash rom on my phone, after hard reset, i flash it from my PC. then i copy the "Android" folder on sd card of my phone, then with "file explorer" i enter the "android" file ((for example - AMERICAN ANDROID)) , i choose CLRCAD, (nothing happens) and then i choose the HARET and loading begins. after that just a screen with HTC logo, a black one. i waited for 20 min, and more - nothing changes. (( tried to reset and load again, same screen, no progress....))
i just have no idea what else to do....
been searching for solution for few days now.
some say that updating the rom helps, but done that.
When i were using winmo i were formatting my sd on such a case. If it doesn't work i was formatting winmo too.

for example - AMERICAN ANDROID....i take it from your writing.you must put the folder Android to sd card not american android folder. i mean
sd card/android/clrcad then haret. not sd card/american android/android/clrcad
of course, i understand it.
i read manual for 100 times now, just to be sure i am doing things right.
i know the basics.
so lets see :
format to phone and sd card - checked
updated rom - checked
different sd card - checked
different rom with different android - checked
if i think about it know - phone is not working that's why i can't install android.
but - every rom is working good and android did worked once on a old sd card.
so have no idea what to do next.
at first i wanted to copy files from sd card where Android did worked, so there were file named "data.img" , couldn't copy it. don't know why.
so, in order for android to work on a phone now , it must create same file now. maybe card is somehow protected and doesn't allow phone to do it................. but i can copy all other stuff on it.
my knowledge and fantasy just ends here, but it kills me that such a simple thing doesn't work.
and if it doesn't work on an old card either, so can't figure out what causing this problem.
i can lastly say: download a new copy of american android.wipe everything from your sd.unrar american android in your pc.find the android folder.copy android folder to your sd via usb or card reader.clrcad then haret. the rom creates a new data.img in first boot.this rom may take half an hour to load. because i use it also. sorry if i'm unable to help
i had the same problem installing AmeriCanAndroid. it seemed like you did everything right from what i could tell anyway. i would try a different sd build to see if thats the problem.

what about you? did it help, switching sd card?
been trying now different Android, same thing.
@angel182
At the time i was a bit of a noob still am really but when i installed a new sd build i think it solved my problem. if i remember correctly i may have even tried a different winmo rom (omega) which may have helped as well. i really cant be to sure because its been some time now & my memory aint what it use to. lol.
I will say that if you ever want to go to a nand version and dont like it for what ever reason you can always switch back. I'm sorry I couldnt of been more help.

Let me know if it helped you.
I've got a HD2 just to try wp7. After some careful reading manages to install, and it was booting and used the basic features for couple of hours without any issues, until i wanted to try out maps,,,, The HD2 got stuck and went to a boot loop.
After checking so much for the one and a half day (I'm so tired and sleepy) i'm sick of this phone. I ve seen many posts regarding this issue, but no one seem to post a clear answer that rectifies the issue. Yes i've tried task 29 and gone back to wm 6.5 as well. Anything else i'm missing here.
If i keep the battery off for about 10 mins or so then it boots up properly, but not all the time. I cannot use any most of the features, only texting and calling. If anything else is launched (IE, People, A/C config...) goes back to the boot loop. WTF
Pls guys help me. well i'm a complete nOOb for this and sorry for the long post.
I am by no means an expert here, but have you tried a different SD card? When I first flashed my HD2, when WP7 was first available for it, my SD card was incompatible and it was constantly rebooting. Some SD cards are incompatible with WP7, even the ones that originally shipped with the HD2.
I know how you feel... that's exactly what happened to me. OMCA1A's right, Try a new SD Card and you should be good to go.
Which method you use ? Zune or 1 shot install
Did you have wp7 on hd2 before trying to install This rom? Was the sd card working?
Did you unlock/ reformat sd card or install straight over?
as already mentioned it can be the SD card and is most likely the SD card in your case, how you install it, cabs or zune or whatever doesnt make the slightest difference, anyone using any card that is not certified to work with WP7 stands the risk of running in to the restart issue.
it might not happen today, it might not be next month or even year, but potentially the restart issue can rear its head when xx% of storage space free is hit
i say xx because it could be anything from 1 -100.
Peronally i find that dumping a few hundred meg of music on gets past these dodgy areas, like just now, if i remove 12MB of data from my device it will start restarting, i can replicate this, if i do a reflash i have to install at least 200MB of music before doing anything, 600MB on top of that i get more restarts so dumped another 200MB of music, installed navigon, restart issues, install 50MB of music all fine again, that its a pain in the arse but its workable, it just means i have a lot of music i will never listen too on my device
Sorry I seriously gave up on my HD2 and was using my sisters old LG phone (Sucked big time ) Yes OMAC1A I have tried 4 different SD cards, so I doubt it’s the SD card.
Moschino02 What do u mean by Zune or one shot install ? I installed the normal way here are the steps I did.
Did task29
Installed latest radio
Installed MAGLDR
Then the wp7 ROM bu running a DWI.exe
Well after I got tired I did install it over and over and over. Yes the cards were working fine on my x10i
dazza9075 The SD I used was empty.
Also guys like I mentioned I only cannot use any of the smart phone features, if I get in to maps or IE or any other task which consumes a lot of CPU, it happens.
I will try one more SD card cos u guys insist and if it doesn’t I’m seriously gonna sell it off for scrap if u want let me know it’s gonna be dirt cheap I can’t tolerate this anymore.
Also one more thing guys, i've tried android as well, a 2.2 desire ROM and a MIUI ROM. Some times it gets stuck on start up it self or on the initial setup. That to me doesn't sound like a SD card issue.
Also it overheats
You tried with Sandisk class 4\6 SD cards, right? Cuz those are the only ones that have a decent chance of working.
Overheating of the HD2 is a common problem, saw many of these phones being sold on ebay with that problem...
I have the same problem... Still trying to fix it... But I know the problem comes when the phone tries to access the SD card (sandisk).

So after you install wp7 rom by running dwi.exe ( you mean v2native rom, right?)
What did you do? Did zune find updates to mango? Or did you install mango by sending cabs? What version are you on?
Moschino02 - Yes it says,
Name: HTC HD7 T9292
OS Version: 7.0.7392.0
Also i have tried other ROM as well, did not have any luck. Even at this very moment it goes through a boot loop. Just tried accessing HTC hub and it went off.
After installing sometimes it reboots or i have to manually do it by removing the battery or a by a soft reset. Yes zune finds updates but i cant update. When the rebooting point comes it never reboots to the OS just goes to a boot loop. *@#^&%$
I have used the following,
Verbatim 2GB micro SD
Unbranded 8 GB Micro SDHC
Kingmax 2GB Micro SD
Sandisk 4GB Micro SD
and none of them worked.
jinge - I dont think so. Initially i thought the same. And i removed my SD card to see but the problems kept continuing.
IF its a SD card incompatibility issue the HD2 should work fine with android. It boots only up to the initial start up screen doesn't go beyond that. MIUI is the closest i got but that too gave problems.
I'm seriously sick of the hd2 guys and i hate it i wish i could show it to you'll.
This has to be a hardware fault. IS IT ????????
Received my first HTC through the post yesterday and joined the site in an attempt to run android. I know nothing and there's an overwhelming amount of information on this site so just need someone to point me in the right direction.
Used this and followed instructions carefully: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957652
My problem is after running clrcad.exe and haret.exe, the phone reset after a grey screen. Looked like it went well but now the SD card has disappeared from the file explorer and windows when connected through USB.
Any help appreciated, just want to get the SD card back up so I can format it and so on. Thanks.
I take it by the lack of replies that this isn't a common problem. It's kind of put me off trying any new ROM's as a simple procedure like this can't even go straight. Will have to stick with Winmo then
Im not quite sure anymore, but i dont think you are able to mount your sd as long as you use sd builds. I dont know if this is changing with an ext partition on your sd.
Just check out the NAND section. Its installed on your internal memory and not running from sd. WinMob will be fully deleted and replaced with Android, so first do a backup of contacts etc!!!
If you do not need WinMob for any kind of apps for work etc which arent ported to Android yet (which i dont think there are much NAND is the best solution for you.
Started like you with sd build 2years ago, too. But switched to NAND as soon as it was stable.
Now it is almost perfect.

How did you get the card to show again? Or did you buy a new one?
Just a thought,have you tried a soft reset? Switch phone off Take back cover of and press little red button for a few seconds,put cover back on reboot into android
Also make sure your SD card is formatted to 32kb (slow format)
