[Q] How to fix SD card issue with files? - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hello everyone. I tried to search answer to this question, but so far found nothing.
This is known issue, when using Android SD build.
When I transfer files to my phone, the apps do not see the files. I have to restart my phone in order to see them. Does anyone knows how to fix it? I found ROM that I love, and it turns out to be such frustrating.
PS: I am also a noob, just got HD2 this afternoon.

Do you mean that you transfer them from your PC? If that the case it's worth checking if you not connecting to PC through Disk Drive, as this making "sd card" inaccsesible from phone apps. When you disconnect from PC, your files should be visible to the apps again.

You can install SDRescan.

Sadly it doesn't work as well. I have to reboot the phone in order to get my files.

Some builds on sd dont fully support mass storage.

Download MULTI MOUNT from market, and use it to enable the SD to the PC (not the android built in function) This is a must for all SD builds! cause with the standard method you can corrupt your data.Multi Mount allos the phone and the pc to access the card at the same time with no risk

But it cant apply to us since we CANT UNMOUNT SD CARD since Android is on it.
So what are you guys doing to make it work?
you still can un mount your card with android running.

Or use the new Hastarin kernel 8.2
When Android boots up, it puts Android into the RAM rather than run off the flash card. Unmount the SD card after boot, install the app, then re-mount it. Then all is fine!

This is why I asked
arrrghhh said:
USB Mass Storage mode CANNOT work - the phone runs Android off of the SD, hence the SD needs to be mounted for Android to work. Just in WinMo when the SD is unmounted from WinMo when you plug it in, the exact same thing would happen in Android - and then Android wouldn't be able to function... make sense?
You can use ADB with USB, but that is it. It's useful for debugging...

Anyuhow, Thank you guys. Worked like a Charm

Thanks everyone

SD card issue

So all of the sudden I get a notification that my memory card had a problem and that it's "read only".
It was totally fine then this. Is my card corrupted or is it a hardware thing?
I can get it to recognize it....then it goes right back to read only.
I've used the same card from my G2...to Nexus One...to Vibrant to my now MT4G.

try formatting it with a card reader...
Probably messed up. Mine did it too and only thing I could do was format.

I will tell you the truth. You will lose everything. After this you will learn to backup your sd card on your computer.
I wiped out mine too. Somehow, my card became corrupted and would not mount. I lost everything. Still pisses me off.
Good news is there is a stock 'ROM' here and you can just start over. I know it sucks, but think of it as a learning experience. What else can you do?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845756
One question I had is: Is there a way after it wont mount to get it to mount? Like... can you go into terminal and mount it at all?
Hope this eases you mind man.

You can put in into another android phone and it will work just fine (most likely). Has happened to me multiple times in G2 (part of a reason it went back to t-mo).
Alternatively, you can try USB mount option in ClockworkMod recovery and see if phone will recognize your card in recovery, you can then copy everything over to PC and re-format the card.
Wait! Before you reformat, plug it into a Windows machine and run checkdisk on it. I just had this problem yesterday and this fixed it for me. I didnt lose my data or anything because it wasnt reformatted. Just check both the boxes on the dialog box when you run checkdisk and hopefully itll work for you too.

How to run Chkdsk from My Computer or from Windows Explorer
Double-click My Computer, and then right-click the hard disk that you want to check.
Click Properties, and then click Tools.
Under Error-checking, click Check Now. A dialog box that shows the Check disk options is displayed,
Select the Automatically fix file system errors check box.
Select the Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors check box, and then click Start.
I too have been experiencing this problem, and have tried almost everything to fix this crap! but no luck, I'm not sure what's causing this, but I've tried several SD cards already and even replaced my phone thinking it was the device card reader, but I still have the same problem... Hope someone can shed some light on this matter...
But to the OP before you go formatting it, you can try to save the files on your SD first by going to recovery > connect device > mounts and storage > mount USB storage. You should see your files from the SD card so you can back those up at least.
Good luck!
Had that happen to me when I popped in a new card. Put the old one back in, same thing happened.
Turned out that the restore didn't work correctly. Was able to restore the stock backup I made after rooting and haven't had issues since. I played around trying to get different kernels working, and had to restore a few times. The one time just didn't take fully.

I got it fixed without loosing anything! Plugged it into a machine that I just updated to win 7..and it said there was a problem with my card and if I wanted windows to see if it could fix it. Yes. It worked!
Check disk is it!
Backed up all my card and plugged it back into the phone...and it works great again.

[Q] Auto restart when connect to PC in "USB mass storage" mode"

Dear all,
I have a trouble with my Milestone 2. It's auto restart when connect to PC/Laptop in USB mass storage mode. It creeps me out! Has anyone encountered this problem?
Maybe you installed some applications in your SDcard.When you connected the phone to your computer,those applications were running.It maybe the reason your phone auto restart.
Never had any problem like it. Did you tried with multiple sd cards, or format sd card?

Same here, it doesnt happen all the time it's probably some bug, the reason why it happends .. i am unsure why.. seems to be Mass storage only though.. didnt see it rebooting when its on the mode "NONE" but also.. its just some soft-reboot it doesnt even take 3seconds to reboot
I fixed it moving the apps moved to sd automatically to internal data.
This happens to my MS2 with stock blur rom (Mexican) And yes, it seems that it happens only in "mass storage mode", btw the ms2 here in Mexico comes with android version 2.2.1.
same here after the update!.
check that if you had install the weather software, safety software, etc. some maybe need SD card, and save some files in SD card.

Aurora ICS sdcard problem.

First I want to thank dzo for his amazing work. Thanks to him, we now have an almost fully functional ICS port!
Now, to get to the point... I upgraded from dzo's v.1.1 to v1.2 ICS yesterday. The ROM is very nice and smooth, and it seems like everything is functioning like it should. BUT, after my first reboot after flashing v1.2, I got the message about corrupt sdcard. So I rebooted into recovery, then rebooted to recovery through recovery again P), and then rebooted normal. The message was still there, so I unplugged the sdcard from my phone and plugged it into my computer through a cardreader. The PC said I had to format it before use, so that's what I tried.. the format-window hung up, and stood still on 0% for about an hour. I got kinda bored of waiting and unplugged the sdcard, then put it back into my phone. Now my phone says something like: "blank sdcard or has an unsupported filesystem etc.). I've tried several sdcard formatting programs, but nothing seems to work :S Now my PC doesn't even recognize my sdcard as an sdcard anymore, but as an empty disk or something.
The worst part is that I actually bought my sdcard yesterday, the same day as got corrupted/blank..
any tips would be appreciated!
edit: My sdcard is a SanDisk Class 4 16GB
Hi,
I have the same sdcard and in most cases my U8800 Pro does not mount correctly this microsd. I don't know if this is a kernel problem or a rom problem.
Anyway I advice you to format your sdcard with a specific format-tool, please download it here:
https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_3/sdfmt3_1.zip
This is a free software developed by Panasonic (if I'm not wrong).
This tool helped me with my sdcard BUT I have to say that Huawei U8800 is a little buggy for the sdcard mount.

Thanks for your reply! Actually I have allready tried ths program. I installed, and opened it. Then I connected the sdcard to the PC, but the program said it couldn't recognize it... So just to be sure it wasn't the program, I tried to connect another sdcard, and that one was recognized. Weird stuff...
Maybe the card is just broken?
This happened to me too. There is nothing you can do, the sd card is broken. Reformatting is impossible, since no reader will recognize the card. You'll just have to buy a new card or get it replaced via warranty.
I have the exact same problem olfyboy, I think the card is ruined
That sucks! :/
well.. time to use my good old 2gb then..
hello guys
plug you sd card in your mobile go in recovery and check did it show your sd card there if not go in advance option reboot in recovery again...
i hope this time you see your sd card
if it this method not work then put ur sd card in some Symbian phone (Nokia, sony ericsson) in symbian phone you are able to format
i hope this method work for you best of luck
maybe a software named Usboot can help you.
Pls try aurora 1.4. Dzo solved sdcard problem
Thanks for your replies guys!
Sadly I think my sdcard is completely broken. No device is able to recognize it, and those who can, says that it's completely blank or does not have a supported file-system.

I can read files but can't write or format.
Read speed is VERY slow (a few bytes per second)

what is the OS on your PC?
maybe I can help you. first of all you have to install a recovery software on your PC ( I prefer "Recover My Files") and extract your photos from SD to your PC.
then if you ask me I will tell you how to format your SD and use it again.
Idk is it a same situation but 2 weeks ago my sd went broke. Ics was showing its empty which i was sure it wasnt. First i tried it with my old phone but no luck. I can connect it to my comp (both win and ubuntu) via sd card reader and no luck. Then i tried fix permissions in cwm and then it recognized, all my old files were there.
I know it doesnt make any sense but if you guys didnt try this just give it a luck.
G luck.

[Q] How to fix my problem...

Hi, I'm having problem to flash my HTC HD2 back to android after flashing my HD2 to Windows Phone. The error that I'm having right now is to unable to mount SD Card. Everytime i've tried to mount /SDcard, an error Unable to mount /sdcard occured.
I've tried so many options but still no avail. Tried to use adb shell command but still unable to mount. So, I've tried to run android using SD Card, my phone stuck at port-a-droid screen and keep rebooting. At first, I though it was the SD card but when I tried on my friends HD2, the SD Android can boot and no problem.
I can't think what is the main problem as when I've load back to WP7, my sdcard can be detected and use as a storage and even in Magldr.
Hope someone could shed some light to my problem as i really love this phone.

Ok, follow these steps and you should be fine:
1. Flash task29 by placing task29.nbh onto root of SD card and holding volume down and power button while phone is OFF
2. Flash magldr or CLk
3. Flash recovery
I highly recommend HD2 Toolkit for this if you are not experienced. just google HD2 Toolkit and you will see the xda thread
Goodluck!
Thanks for your reply.
I will try it and hopefully it will solve my problem.
I will post again for the result. Thanks again.

Hi again.
I've tried the step that you suggested using the toolkit but still the same problem.
I'm still unable to boot android from the SD as it keeps reboot after showing the port to droid ultimate screen.
Try to install rom via sdcard still giving me the same can't mount error.
Any other suggestion?
I quit confuse on what reason this is happening as when installing WP7, sdcard can be detected. But when I've flash to Stock Desire HD using DFT (as is the only method that I cn use to install android) my sdcard can be detected by the android os.
It's kinda weird actually...

Have you tried simply formatting your SD card to FAT32? This often solves issues involving the SD card

Hi, thanks for your reply.
Actually I did want to reinstall android from WP7 however when i enter recovery mode and choose install from the zip file, I get can't mount sdcard.
I've been trying a lot of things, format using sd formatter, format to FAT32, swap with another sdcard and even purchase new sdcard also gave me the same error. Even trying to fix using adb also fail or maybe I'm not expert enough to fix using adb. Found a topic in the forum by modifying initrd.rc (if i'm not mistaken) my knowledge is still shallow, so I dare not to try such attempt yet.
Do you think using Clk would solve my problem rather using Magldr? Maybe I should give it a try.
As for the boot android from sd is an effort for me to run android as a temporary solution while trying to figure out NAND installation problem but that method also fail.
I've already format my card using FAT32 (but will try to reformat again later), but copy all the android file into the folder and try to reboot from sdcard. Only got to loading screen of port-a-droid ultimate and then my phone reboot. But when I insert the same sdcard into my friends HD2, it boot into the android without a problem as I'm facing right now.
So I don't know what's the different between his HD2 and mine.
Hopefully someone could help me.

After reading this, and thinking about it for awhile, to eliminate ALL software issues, i would flash stock TMOUS or your carrier's stock Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM and try the sd card there. It almost sounds like youre having a hardware issue. Or wait a minute, what programs did you use to format your SD card? there might be a partition still on it that recovery isnt liking, download mIni tool partition wizard and delete all partitions then create a fat32 partition set as primary. Or use HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool that takes forever but it does an excelent job at erasing completely the contents (master boot records, paritions, data, everything) and restores it to a fresh state. every time i get any sort of external media i use this tool to completely wipe it clean. if problems still persist we may need to move to a google talk chat session or something so i can talk to you as you move through some steps.

Good question lol i have the stock TMOUS ROM, and a custom ROM. The only problem with those is the radio will most likely brick the device.
What carrier do you have? im pretty good at tracking down files on the net. I would start with the carriers website, then go to HTC's website. its 100% out there, just gotta get the blood hounds out and sniff it down i found a 12 year old program (simple .exe file) that would compare two folder directories and output there results to a text file so its definately out there
And i say it might be a hardware issue since you claimed it booted on your friends HD2, thus ruling out a bad SD card, or bad software setup. These devices arent that hard to pull apart, ive had mine a apart more times than i change my underwear xP
So if it is hardware related, prolly a pin thats not connecting 100% (Hopefully) you can easily rip it apart and bend the pin to make contact.
Well the best to ya if you need help finding the stock ROM just post your specs of the carrier and what not and i'll try to help ya. Also if you need anything else you know wher to find me

Good question lol i have the stock TMOUS ROM, and a custom ROM. The only problem with those is the radio will most likely brick the device.

Thanks again. I will try to find stock rom first. If not, I will post again.
Btw, is it possible for me to pull out (or create an image) of the stock ROM as my brother had a friend that ask me to convert his HD2 to Android. But just to be save, I want to extract the original stock rom first just in case and at the same time i could use it to restore my HD2.
Do you think it is caused by the hware. Because if it is, would it also effecting WP7 rom also. A bit weird as WP7 could access my sdcard without an issue. I don't know as i'm no expert in mobile device.
If my device is bricked either because of the radio or others, is it possible to un-brick it.
Anyway, thanks. Will be posting again soon.
If still couldn't solve, then i will just stick to WP7 and sold the unit instead.

I forgot to ask. If my device came from WM6.5, should I flash the radio first or HSPL?

Here are the stock ROMs for the UK, so the ones for your carrier are probably on the HTC website somewhere Try searching through your country's branch of the htc website (i.e. rather than htc.com/uk try your country's code) and you will most probably find the ROM you're looking for. If you're flashing from WinMo you flash HSPL>Radio>MAGLDR/cLK>CWM>ROM (in response to your second post)

I'm reasonably sure you can, as that says it's just a generic software update. Try it out and see if it helps your SD issue and report back
