Damaged SD card, can't fix...

I have liberated aria, app2sd (cooked into liberated r12), and my sd card reports as damaged. I've resigned myself to format this card, but it keeps reporting as damaged whether I format using Android or Clockwork. Don't have a PC available to format, and have not yet tried removing the ext partition. (Didn't want to lose all my apps.)
Anyone have any thoughts?

I had the same scare with a new SD card also. After I formatted using a pc, it was ok.

I figured I'd have to plug it into a PC. I guess I'll do that when I get home Monday.
Thanx for the help.

When I put it in a card reader, it was slow as heck to read and format the card, but format it did.
It also left my ext partition intact.

when you connect to pc via usb cable choose disc drive on phone and wait for pop up
you can then put apk files onto sd card then disconnect and navigate to apk with file explorer, open and install,
you will also have to check unknown sources in applications settings

If you are using normal froyo app2sd. Settings > applications > manage applications > go to an app and pick move to sd.

But are apps in SD slower than apps in phone?

If you have a slow sd card and the app has to support froyo app to sd

Is a class 2 SD card just fine? Or do we need at least class 6??

The higher class the better unless its a.cheap one from ebay

Since all the apps cant be installed to sd card, therefore i recommend you download "app2sd enabler" from the market. after downloading it, just go to settings>applications>manage applications. and you can move you desired apps to sd card.

I have done it with the following tutorial

good luck !

If we download the apps from the android market, how do we install them on the SD card?

I just told you, read my post above... if you have an ext partition and app2ext enabled, they move auto to your sd, you need to darktremmor for this.

If you do the following MOD, Applications which support them self to install in SD card will automatically goes to SD card.

Applications which do not have support must be installed to phone first and then have to moved to SD card through Application Manager.

[Q] Formatting SD card

My SD card is really cluttered and I just want to reformat it, I was just wondering if there's a speacial way to reformat? Or do I just right click the drive on my computer and click format?

Backing up stock game data?

So I downloaded MyBackup because I am going to unlock my bootloader tomorrow. I want to save all of my game data, like Asphalt 6, on the SD Card. the thing is, these arent recognized as market applications and I cannot back their data up. How can I proceed?

Just Rooted

Hi Guys,
Just rooted using the one click method v3, all worked fine!!, so a big thank you to the creator!!
I have installed titanium backup and have disabled the system update program and removed a couple of games that were on it which I couldn't remove before!! These were 2 of the main reasons I rooted!!
I just wanted to ask if there are any other programs that can tweek the system to create more space on the built-in storage and free-up ram etc!? also can I install/move stuff (apps/games) to the SD card? The reason I ask is because the phone says I can 52mb of storage memory left! I kept getting warnings before I rooted!!
Thanks in advance

Yes

You can actually read the stickied topic on 'rooted locked bootloader app removal list'..

The app link2sd is the way to go now you have route. Do a google on how to use.
Basically you add a second partition of say 1/2gb to you memory card just for link2sd. you move everything back to internal memory, then can 'link' to sd. Moves more apps to sd and frees up loads of room. Long to set up but once done should have loads of space from there on in!

If you don't want to partition, DroidSail app2sd can move quite a lot of apps

Thanks for the information, I have moved some apps across with app2sd, do I need to do anything else? Do I need to delete them off the main memory? Thanks

Haven't used that app dude but you should be fine and it'll have moved them from internal memory to the sd card.
