i repaired my td2, new housing and digitizer. and have the following problem;
in explorerer the memory card is gone (also in other explorer apps)
when syncín with my pc the memory card is recognized?
what could couse the problem, tried different roms , memory card is oke.
Have you tried a another Sd card? Perhaps format the card and see if that helps. If thats not it then it sounds like drivers or something. I would flash to the latest Official HTC rom and start over. Or perhaps just Hardreset the device and see if it comes back. Seems like some software/registry bug or it's missing drivers.
I would format my microSD card first, try another card, hard reset, flash a new firmware, then call HTC for a new phone.
very strange, tried the 8gb card is always use but its not working anymore, not on td2 or computer. Tried 2nd one and works on computer and with connecting the td2 with pc it is recognized but not when is use my phone.
tried a 3rd memory card ... it works ?
nevertheless
i got 8gb memory card with my hd phone,it's 2 months old.suddenly memory card dosen't work on my phone. file manager does not show memory card even my phone shows the message 'install storage card'. now i am really worried,it seems like a big problem.i tried to another memory card but still shows the same issue.
plz suggest me how to get rid of it?.what to do now...............? .
same here..
for 6 months i hadnt got any problem.. but now the phone isnt recognizing the storage card
Use one of these to format your SD-card again:
http://www.sdcard.org/consumers/formatter/
http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/index.html
I want to format it.. but I want to back up it first because I have a lot of things that I dont want to lose.. But even my pc, doesnt shows me the storage card.. doesnt recognize it, to back up it..
please help..
If even card reader on PC can't recognize contents of SD, you can probably throw away that SD...
But, for last chance, try to read it with SD reader which came with SD card (if that was a case) or on another PC...
I will try my SD card in another phone... i havent SD reader.. I havent done anything to my phone.. It was ok, when I woke up and my phone didnt recognize my SD..
I heard about a program called restoration.. search for this..
maybe this can help me?.. format my SD, and then restore my things on SD again?
sooner or later all sdcards die be sure to backup important data from your sdcard to your computer once in awhile
My experience....
I see a number of comments about this problem in the Touch HD so I will share my experiences.
My HD quit recognizing the memory card some time ago. Occasionally I could re-install a ROM and get it to function briefly. As soon as I installed programs on the card, the links would disappear and the card would become unreadable. I tried different cards, I tried new cards, I formatted the card on my PC, I ran task29 to clean ROM memory prior to installing a new ROM and I I tried the stock HTC ROM. The micro SD cards are always perfectly functional and readable on my PC and on other devices including a friend's Touch HD.
After all of this, I gave up and I now use the HD without a memory card. I have become very frugal with memory useage!
If anyone discovers a fix for this malady, your solution would be greatly appreciated.
I searched.. and the only I found is that we have, as soon as we get our new SD card, to do a FAT32.. so it will not have a lot of problemss
If the card is formatted correctly, and is recognisable in a PC and other devices, then it's more than likely to be a hardware issue.
I know, because one of my devices is also broken exactly like this. It's likely the SIM/SD Comboboard, but I've never found a supplier for spares . . anyone know of anywhere?
Hello guys,
Same problem with touch hd. tried everything mentioned. task29, different roms, other sd-cards, reformatting etc... still no luck!
hope someone is going to find a solution soon!
Greetings
disapearing micro SD
I also had the same problem some time ago when connecting to pc through USB opting for disc drive connection and not using the sync button, then solved the problem when I flashed a new ROM.
Regards,
I also have this problem.
I've had the 8GB SD Card for about a year now and untill now, its always worked without a problem.
I installed a Topix Rom this weekend. I also installed most of my programs to the storage card.
Within a day it was dropping in and out. I am able to see the card, but not run any mp3's off it.
When the card drops out, I can either take the card out and reinsert it or restart the phone and the card is visible again. It still cant play mp3s or videos though.
Anyone else having this problem since they've installed a new Rom?
Hello I'm new here, I couldn't find what i was looking for so hear i go...My sd card is not working either after about 1 year just stopped working the phone says it is not installed so is it possible to reinstall it? Thanks...
Quick update...
I tried formatting the sd card & it worked. Thanks people

Spares for hardware fault
Just to add, as I said previously about my device, the SDCard reader was faulty, and HTC Europe refused to supply the part without a HTC Service Centre repair.
For anyone else having hardware issues, I managed to source the part from China, and now it's working perfectly again after a simple repair.

Hey guys,
I've searched for a while but can't find a solution for my problem..
After flashing XBmod-Yuki rom V 2.00 everything works fine (also with older NoDo-roms) but when I change the region&language settings into something different, there's either a restart loop or a storage card error.
I've tried several ways of flashing, including this way.
My SD card: Transcend 16GB class6. Btw, a 2GB Sandisk works like a charm..
Is there any help out there??
Kind regards...
It could just be the card, SD cards seem to play a huge part of wp7, there are many problems that can crop up, sometimes you might not see them until you fill up the card to a certain level or the moon is full just depends... Not an answer but a possibility
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I think I had the same issue today, when I turned it on today, I had a SD Card problem. I pulled out the battery, re booted the phone, arrived in the main menu then.. it freezed! =/. I pulled out the battery, pulled out the SD Card and plugged it again and now it works fine!

Didn't work for me.
Unfortunately, everything's fine after a hardreset but with a reboot (manually or to make an update/flash a cab) there is this storage card error!!
before you do anything after a flash, sync with zune and dump a few hundred meg of music on it, my card is unstable until i do that.
HD2 does not recognize a brand new 8GB Sandisk.
Any help please - my phone does not seem to recognize any SD cards anymore since I installed WM7.
I even bought a brand new 8GB card, and the phone does not recognize it at all.
The 4GB SD card that used to work fine, is also not detected anymore, but that could be due to it being encrypted now _ although I formatted with the Panasonic SD format tool.
I put 4GB of music on it - no (positive) effect...
hi everyone, i got a problem with SDca on htc trophy .. i pull out the sdcard and trying to put in the pc .. but my pc doesn't detect my sdcard.. and it seems every card i put on the trophy, trying put in the pc and it doesn't detect it .. so now i got 3 sd card unusable .. any idea about how i can bring back the card usable ??
Find a phone with Symbian OS like Nokia N8 or similar, or older, I used 6220c and format your Micro-SD cards with that phone. After that you can use your cards on any other phone or PCs!!!

I tried that and the phone asked me for password (the phone beeing 6220c )
Just ignore the password, use phone's file manager and on memory card choose options and then use option to format the card.
very nice ... bravo
Hi,
(Strange problem - OS does not detect SD Card however Bootloader does and loads ROM from SD Card)
I have a strange problem from this morning. I had WP7 mango installed which was working pretty ok apart from a few restarts if the bottom part of phone got warm/hot, so I kept it in from of AC (This idea usually works with HD2)
This morning, WP7 gave an error saying it can not detect the 16 GIG SD Card, I reformatted SD Card using Nokia phone/FAT32 and re-installed WP7 however it gave a message saying No Storage Card present.
I have also tried installing WM6.5 but that too doesnt not detect SD Card.
On top of above, strange thing is that I have installed 3 different version on WM6.5 stock ROM using SD Card method (pressing VolDn methos while powering phone up to boot load ROM from SD Card) and it works perfectly fine however the OS does not detect SD Card.
Has any body faced this problem and have a solution?
Or does any body know of a solution to this problem?
Thanks in advance,
Ash.

further to add, i have tried 2 sd cards 4gb and 16 gb. WM6.5 says no SD Card present however the WM6.5 and all of software (ROM, Radio, Splash etc) were loaded/installed using LEOIMG.nbh on 16gb SD Card.
I have searched the forum as well as other sites, and have tried re-formatting sd card as well to no luck.
Please help, if you have any idea of whats wrong.
Cheers,
Ash

We're all too surprised you managed to flash using a 16gb SD card.,,, normally anything 8gb or larger won't flash nbh files, so your problem is pretty strange.
I lost the shipped 8GB SD card more than year back and since then I am using 16GB SD card with HD2 and it worked perfectly.
Does OS like WP7/WM6.5 uses mount in some way to have card and contents available? If so, can it be mounted using MAGLDR or CWM, since the bootloader which IPL can read the SD Card.
Cheers,
Ash
indeed this is a baffling problem. can't think of conclusive reasons why the tri-color bootloader can see the sd card but OS (WM6.5, WP7, Android) cannot!
i am assuming you have just ONE partition on the sd card...? can you check and tell us the format of the filesystem, i.e. FAT or FAT32...? i think FAT isn't even possible on a 16GB card...it will likely be formatted as FAT32, but lets check to be sure.
Hi ASCIIker,
Many thanks for your response, the SD Card is FAT32 formatted. I have tried both 4gb and 16gb cards but WM6.5 says No Card found.
See screen shots attached. I have also attached screen shot of version showing Stock ROM flashed earlier today using SD Card.
I am not too sure, could it be some thing like mounting of SD Card under these OS's or under SPL which is not able to mount these SD Cards,
The problem started when phone was running WP7 Mango 8107 but it used to crash if it got hot and re-boot on its own, may e one of those automatic re-boots, the OS unmounted Sd card. When I looked at it in the morning, it was showing an error message of no storage card present and the options available were emergency call and shut down. I tried re-booting it 1-2 times and it still showed same message and then I tried loading WM6.5 from SD Card using LEOIMG.nbh which worked and left me confused.
I have also tried USB Mass Storage option of MAGLDR 1.13 however that doesn't work either.
I have never used CLk but I can try that if there is a way to access SD Card using USB with it.
Any suggestions for reviving it back are welcome.
Cheers,
Ash

It is worth a shot but i suspect you it still will not detect the SD card. Just click on the HD2 guide in my sig and scroll down to post #3 and look for the section "Updated version of clk with CWM built in" and click on the link that takes you to the download of that version. Then the bottom of post #1 and read the section "Flashing cLK via SD card". This will have clk with Clockwork Mod installed on your device. Then boot your device and hold down the home button at the same time, this will boot you into CWM and theb select "Mounts and storage" then select"mount USB storage". If you do not see the contents of your SD card on your computer then it is not working. Make sure to try "install zip from sdcard" as well. Just see if it reads the SD card that way.
Also I take it from your posts that you have tried otion #4 USB Mass storage in MAGLDR. So like I said I doubt CWM will see it in mass storage either.
Seeing as WP7 uses the SD card for the internal memory and is constantly using the SD card reader on the device at high speeds. It may just be a case of the SD card reader not being operable with the OS anymore. I mean it has to work at a certain speed level I think for the OS to be able to use it, and maybe the bootloader does not require that same speed. Or it may just be a case of the reader not being able to mount the SD card as read and write both still so it just will not mount it. Like I said these are just shots in the dark. But if it is a problem with it mounting in either read or write it could cause this problem I beleive.
Hi T-Macgnolia, thank you for this detailed reply. I was able to install CLK using SD Card method however it does not recognize SD Card nor does it mount it. It shows an error message - see attached screen shot.
I was wondering if a faster SD Card like Class 6 8 GB would make any difference to current state.
Cheers,
Ash

if you're getting the same behaviour with all your cards, then its likely to be a problem with the phone, and messing with this class of that sized card is probably a dead end. (thats not to say you shouldnt try if you have cards available, of course!)
To my mind its gotta be one of two things
1 - some problem with the sd controller, that is allowing low level access to the card, so flashing works, but not allowing the higher level drivers full speed access to the card, in much the same way that a PC accesses the hard disk much faster during a normal boot than it does with a 'safe mode' boot.
2 - a virus/glitch/witchcraft/wp7/other has corrupted all your sd cards in some fashion.
Just guesses, of course.
Good luck.

I agree with Samsamuel completely, it seemsit is something wrong with the SD card reader/controller that is not letting it read the SD card at a higher speed. Or something really strange and funky has happened to all of your SD cards. But I feel it is the first thing and not the later. If you want to try another SD card, as odd as it sounds, I suggest you try a lower class SD card like a class 2 if you can find on. But then again you may already have one and already tried it I do not know. One thing for sure it seems like a hardware issue and not a software or faulty SD card issue.
I had this exact same problem, in the end I ended up going back to original leo Winmo 6.5, then starting over with HSPL - Magldr - CWM - Android (though I guess WP7 will work too).
I don't know what caused the problem, I just put all these anomalies down to the bad nand blocks on my device.
I'll also note that mass storage in Magldr has never worked for me and still doesn't, the drive mounts but crashes on transfer of any files, but within CWM and Android it works now.
If you have exhausted all other options and have not already tried this then it maybe worth a shot. Good luck.
Thanks michael-jb,
I have tried all these options. I have tried installing different WP7 again though, which I will do tomorrow or day after.
Cheers,
Ash
