Mount the card in windows. And use panasonice sd formatter. To format the sd card.

Hey everyone,
Today I mistakingly tried to update a Froyo ROM with an Eclair, and it messed up my phone. So I flashed the default Bell ROM and went to install the Eclair, only this time I kept getting an error that /sdcard/andboot/androidinstall.tar can't be read.
I've checked over and over and: 1) the folder location is right (in the root of the SD Card, all lower case), 2) the .tar file is not corrupt, and 3) the SD Card is formated in FAT32.
I have no idea what is going on, and I'm stuck with the default Windows Mobile 6.1 now.
Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks
same here
I'm actually having the same thing. Clean FAT32 card. 1 directory 'andboot' all lowercase, 1 file in that dir 'androidinstall.tar' all lowercase.
I see android detecting the insert of the SD card, but apparently it wont read it...
solved
After reformatting [and repartitioning] the sd card, what worked for me in the end, was reformatting it [yes, again] to fat32, making the directory, putting in the file, and then resetting the phone. My guess: even though it detected the insert of an sd card, it did not really mount the filesystem until after the reboot.
I used the NVflash root method from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1125714, but when I tried to update CWM from v3.0.2.8 to v3.1.0.1 it can't mount the sdcard. Every solution I've seen says that you need to format the sdcard but I can't format it using Windows because it views it as a media device and I can't format it from CWM because it needs to mount it to format it. Any ideas on how I can get it working? Or should I try flashing roms by another method?
Pic shows all the different things I've tried and the messages that it produced.
take a micro sd card and put it in
go into recovery and go down to advanced
repartition the micro sd card
reboot
put what evere you want to flash in the micro sd card and flash
take your sdcard out and use SD Formatter 3.0 to format it. Now try re-flash the new CWM.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I repartitioned it but now I can't add anything to it. The TF can't find the card and my computer can't read it.
I formatted it, it worked. Now to get it to stop aborting the roms I'm trying to install. Thanks guys
Hey everyone,
I keep getting the same error while copying the Typhoon zip-file to my SDcard (empty, and 8GB is available).
It seems to be loading it onto the SD card, but it gets stuck (see 1st photo), then I get this error saying the card is no longer connected (which it is). I've turned off my phone several times and tried again and again, but I can't get it to work.
I hope someone can help me.
If not, how do I get back to windows 6.5 ?
Use an sd card reader. They are normally really cheap.
Otherwise format the card with sd formatter (program) and retry.
Before that you can try to copy the files via clockwork mod :
Mounts and storage and the mount usb or try to mount just sd.
Hope this helps you.

Hi Y'all
Im having the same problem trying to Install NAND Android with ClockWorkMod Recovery. At the last step,
7. Open your favorite ROM (ex. JawsMIUIrec1.0.7z) with 7-Zip.
8. Copy .data folder and ex. JawsNandRec1.1.zip to SD card root level.
I encounter exactly the same thing the OP is saying. Its not copying over. Im using a Kingston 8 GB microSDHC Class 4 Flash Memory Card SDC4 and my PC is running 7.
Any other suggestions?
jonas has given u the best solutions but there is another 1 u could try.
if u have a camera with an sd card reader,stick it in there,attach camera to pc,see if it allows u to format the sd card,then try to add the file
HOPE THIS HELPS...............FEEL FREE TO HIT THANKS
I have a problem with the device: yesterday I tried to change ROM, but after the wipe, I can not find the SD Card with the new ROM. I then tried to mount the SD Card, but I get the following error: Error mounting /sdcard!
Skipping Format...
I could then install the ROM on Intern Storage, but however I can't use the SD Card.
What I have to do? I use TWRP
So here's the thing. Today i tried installing Paranoid on my HTC HD2. And it's not the first time i am doing this. I also wanted to use that link2sd for more space for my apps and i decided to create the Ext4 before installing the Rom.....which didn't work out so i reformatted the SD back to FAT32 and went on with the installation. So using HD2 toolkit wipped Task 29 installed CLK and CWM recovery, copied over the zip file to SD card. Normally i pressed "install zip from sd card" and then "choose zip from sd card" and it says ??No files found??. Tried that a couple of times, reformated the sd, done the process all over again but it's all the same.
Sorry for that long story but i want to make clear of what's my problem and i would really be very greateful if somebody can help me with this thing.
P.S. First time i formatted the SD was with Minitool Partition Wizard.
Thanks in advance!!
