well been using the standerd 2gb sd card with my phone fine but upgraded toa 16gb card over the last 2 days...
soo i took the files of my old card using active sync
put the new card in the phone.. formatted it then transfered the new files.. gets to about 250mb then says... write protected please make sure the file is not in use bla bla.. sometimes it gets to 2gb but it always does it on a diffrent file and none of them are protected and the card shouldent be as its formatted and 16gb
can anybody help or does anybody think its a duff card?
any help would be much greatful!
Thank you
Sam Morgan
forgot to say the sd card quick fix is installed aswell
Don't use Activesync to copy the files - use Disk Mode.
tried using disk mode but still get the dodgey things of writing a certain amout.. not being able to delete some files.. even after i just put them on there... any way ive orderd a new class 6 16gb card from a data and hopefully should do the trick as i think this chinese crap is duff
your case sounds awfully familiar to those of the people who bought the "16gb usb pendrive" from chinese resellers, which were actually 1gb pendrives with modified onboard chips to make it appear as 16gb devices. The first GB you copied was fine, but whenever you tried to access data over that limit wyou would obviously get errors. In this case, if you bought a cheapo card from an "unkown" seller, he probably gave you a 256MB hacked microsd.
also worth making sure the card is formatted to fat 32,4096 block size for best results.
thanks for the replies guys...
samsamuel: i used the formatting tool on the phone
oh just tried formatting again it saud card is broken or damaged then tried againa and let me format it... must be broken then

blimey, sounds a bit iffy to me, not sure i would trust anything important to it!
Hy every body, does some one heard about SD damaged after a FAT32/EXT4 Format?
Let me explain myself:
I've SD-FROMATTED my sd, then using GPARTED LIVE SD in my HD2 in MAGLDR
i've created two partitions:
1/ FAT32
2/ EXT4
I do have click on "apply".
Now, my SD is unreadable and unrecognized by my phone.
The oly way i have to use it now is FAT32 only.
It is the third time i do the partitioning on this SD and it's the first time it does'nt work
HEEELP!!!
I've heard about file corruption using MAGLDR USB MassStg...Is-it true
Thanks for your anwers
No answer? Nobody?
download panasonic SD Formatter 3.0 and that will sort it no probs.
matt
Try Panasonic SD Formatter as mentioned above. With the stock SD card I've had problems formatting using a card reader, however. I had to flash back to a windows mobile rom, connect to PC as a hard drive (not active sync) and re-format the card via that method. It's a pain, but try this if you're really stuck.
Thanks i'll try those methodes
i use minitool partition manager
but first go to control panes, then computer management, devices, find your sd card and right click on it. select create new disk label and that should solve your problem.
now after that run minitool partition manager and you 'll be able to see your sd car as new disk (or something) just create a new partition as (fat32, primary) format maybe that could solve your problem.
(the same thing happen to mee and i was about to cry because of it)
(sorrry for bad english, i'm still learning)
Thanks kof102. I'm on it

Also, as a long time Android recovery user (I went through several Android phones before coming around to the HD2), I would highly recommend formatting your card using Clockwork Recovery.

One problem can be that when try create a Ext partition using CWR it only creates an Ext2 which isn't really the best.
I've seen on differnt French forums that i'm not alone. Is there a Risk formatting and partitioning an SD Card, that is not done for, to damage allocation Table?
My SD is dead now. Not even my PC, my Phone or else are abble to find my SD. Have you heard about that?
No answer? No body?
try using EASEUS Partition Master 7.0.1 Home Edition with this u will be able to see what is going on.. hope it helps.
Thanks, Have you allready heard about that befor?
I had a problem with my SD it didn't come up on my pc too,when I was playing with the dual booting partition making for wp7 and android. some how it messed up and SD didn't come up so I found this program Easeus and some how managed it to work again it was a simple problem that all I had to do is to recreate the partition and only after that u can format it. if it doesn't exist u format nothing actualy lol.
hope u have the same problem.
I've tried EASUS but it was unable to read my SD...
I think it's dead now...
I've bought an other one and part it with CWM. It's EXT2 but it work perfectly!
Maybe it could be nice to check if nobody else had the same than me...and tell it to Master COTULLA!
No body else?
So I have this Issue I found my 16gb HD2(I no longer have the hd2) that's I guess corrupted I can view the files move them to my desktop but I cant format the SD, I tried my Nexus One, digital camera, Windows 7, Macbook,ubuntu, mini partition tool and testdisk with no results. I remember this issue happen when I tried to run android through SD maybe you guys know why. thanks
Some sd cards especially ones that have been bought on ebay or overseas have a memory hack in them. What happens is the sd card shows 16gb but in reality it may only have 6-10gb. The hack provides the sd card to show more space then is actually there. You can use it just fine with no problems at all but once you go over the actual memory it really has & not just shows you then get a slew of corrupted files on your sd card leaving it almost useless. This is only 1 example, others causes could be if you take an ad card out while you transferring files to it. In the end there is little you can do and what I would of suggested you've already tried. (minitool) this has helped me fix a card that I was transferring files when my power went out. This will probably not help but have you tried different ports on your computer? What happened when it was in you nexus?

Yeah I learn this lesson on my chinese 32gb lol but on my 16gb sd was actually the one that came with the hd2 so I know for a fact is legit. everytime I put it on my N1 it tries to format it and then a message pops out saying card unmounted. I also tried my good old nokia n82 which usually Nokias are really good at formatting corrupted cards it doesn't give me the choice of formatting the card. Im wondering of their some type of lock on the sd card.
there is a really small lock on the front of a sd card but none that i know of on a micro sd. did you use the minitool partition wizard or the data recovery program? if you only used the partitioning wizard i would try the minitool data recovery program found here.
Running mini tool this is what I get it wont fix it though https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/3-oc0r_Bbv5qrYncR3IzCZaCRbbB6vENK-AyJ2O_CkI?feat=directlink
running minitool data or minitool partitioner? it looks like minitool data if i remember correctly. yeah, it says "minitool found errors on disk but will not fix them because diskcheck was run without fix parameters." i would try it again but select "check and fix detected errors" see if that helps. if it dont help then i would suggest to wait for advise from someone a little more knowledgeable about this.

what about good ol' Check Disk from Windows Explorer?
Another program is SD Formatter 3.0.
Try it and play with the options.
SD formatter is pretty good i must say. Here is another one that might be of some use. I have a corrupted flash drive around somewhere so i'll try and find that. maybe I can play around with it to see what might work and report back. I would also take a look at this link as it provides some very useful information about sd cards. you can find that here, please make sure you read the section on "Formatting is required". This will explain why you may be running into problems along with what the cause might be.
Yea the same thing happened to me with my 8 gig card, i even tried formatting it at best buy and with a camera and still wouldn't format. So i just had to buy a new one.
For Guys who have issues with SD Cards (Formatting,Mounting,Errors,Corruption or even Death of Card) :
A full format (uncheck quick format)running HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool is recommended.
Moreover,never ever use SD card Adapters for formatting.Always USB card readers as they are more efficient.
Generic operating system formatters don’t provide the optimum performance.And,sometimes,can result into SD card death and less picture-saving space.
Full format once in awhile is recommended to prevent possible corrupt files, lengthen the life of the card and achieve the most available space possible.
This tool is compatible with Windows XP and vista however Windows 7 users can run this tool in Compatibility mode for Windows 7 by going through :
Properties>Compatibility>Compatibility mode>Check(Run this program in compatibility mode for)>Select Windows 7 from dropdown menu>Apply>OK

Yep,a full format(uncheck quick format) using this tool should solve your problem.I was facing the same issue with one of my cards.
Don't used SD card Adapter for formatting,use a USB card reader.Hope it will get your card back in action.
You can also run surface test using MiniTool Partition Wizard to check any read error in your SD card's memory blocks.
(Right click on your card>surface test)
Good luck:good:

Sorry,I didn't get you.
SD adapter is used to make your micro SD usable on normal SD slot devices.It is not any type of memory.
If you are reffering to a dead micro SD card,a full format (uncheck quick format) using this tool might fix your problem.
Always use USB card readers for the formatting process.

I don't want to be a smart-ass here but seriously... Initially I thought you'd mean a card reader with "SD adapter"... if you're speaking about micro sd adapters: nothing wrong to use those as it's just a kind of "connector extension" - the only thing that might go wrong is that the slot has a mechanical problem. That usually would end up in getting nothing formatted
Anyway thx for the hint with the application - could become useful some time

What is the size of your SD card ?Probably,it's running out of space.
Format your card from within the phone settings first(Settings > Storage).
You will need this tool if that doesn't help.

Yeah,of course,you can transfer files using adapters but USB card reader is recommended for the formatting process.
This tool was created specifically for HP USB devices so only a USB SD card reader can be used as interface device.
The most amazing thing about this tool is ,it does a very deep cleansing.While other formatting tools take 3-4 mints to format an 8GB SD card,this tool takes 4-5 hours to ensure most efficient formatting.I have used and verified this tool personally.Using generic formatting utilities don’t provide optimal performance for your SD cards.
I just thought it might be good to list a tip that might help others with their SD card issues.
I wonder :S
Hi I have a 8GB MicroSD card, suddenly it went slow down.. I formatted it using various applications but it doesn't affect it takes so long to paste a file(s) I dunno but it ask around 25 minutes to paste a 250MB file and sometimes it increases to hours.. I didn't even found any bad sectors.. every sector is ok but it's useless without fast data writing.. anyone ever faced this type of matter? :crying:
I NEED HELP!!! I have a 32gb micro sd card and the above process does not work.
Why is this here? Shouldn't it be somewhere like hardware and software hacking or something...
Anyway dont use adapters makes no sense, like that one guy just said: Its just ... ...
However im not on sense rom so i may make no sense myself
Hi
I need some help. I think my 2gb sdcard got corrupted and my willy doesnot reads it anymore although i have tried another sdcard and it works.
So problem is with sdcard. My computer wont recognise it too ( i tried it with my wildfire not with any card reader or adaptor )
I download that hp exe file but how can it work if my pc doesn't reads sdcard ?
Is there a way that i can use any software and plug sdcard in an adaptor ? And format it etc ?
Because i dont own an adaptor or a usb card reader. I'll probably lend an adaptor today but for usb card reader i'll have to wait for a day or two
I really need my sdcard working
Now i have 2 corrupted sdcards.
2gb card and 4 gb card.
Btw will my pc read the sdcard or show it if i use an adaptor ? Coz i've never used it before.

I doubt it'll help!
This tool was designed to format flash drives and it does a deep format,which is helpful in removing problematic partitions from those drives(sd cards).
I have been using this tool for good 2 years now,it has helped me curing pen drives,sd cards which were already readable on windows.(cured issues like i/o errors,cyclic redundancy issue,etc.).But if windows doesnt read it then I doubt it'll help.
Try with some linux system if you have.But,you can consider your card to be dead sadly.

I dont have a Linux OS but i think there's gotta be a way. I searched alot so far but had no luck uptill now.
My suggestion to everyone: PLEASE TAKE SOMETIME OUT OF YOUR LIFE AND ALWAYS REMOVE THE SDCARD SAFELY.
Please some more suggestions guyz.

Hello all,
I have been using Galaxy note 3 for the last 3 years or so, have rooted it, installed AOSP and stock ROMs (including the latest Note 7 ports) on it. So I have a fair understanding of how the phone works, and am able to work with errors on a very comfortable basis (sometimes, with help from other XDA members as well).
Now, here's where I am stuck. I was running a Note 7 port ROMs (Phronesis and Magma-NX), and also ran an AOSP ROM. Since last week, my phone has not been able to recognize my SD Card (I have two cards: one, a 32gb card, and the other a 128gb card) on either of the stock or AOSP ROMs. It says: Corrupted. So I begin to format the card (both of them) on the phone itself, and I keep getting this message when I try to format my SD Card via phone:
thread binder_7 gave up waiting for partitionPublic after 180000ms
The SD Cards format properly on my laptop. The end result is my phone doesn't recognize any memory cards, and I basically end up working with the internal storage of 32gb. I havent encountered this error before, and I have no clue about what to do. I have tried googling it, and Google gives me a result for partitionPrivate and not partitionPublic. I dont know if these are the same things or not, and in either case, I absolutely dont know
what to do.
Can anyone suggest/guide as to what should I do?
I had an issue where my phone wouldn't see an SD card unless it was given a name when attached to a PC, might be nothing to do with it but could be worth a try?

Can you try this please :
- Format one of your sd cards using your PC (use this recommended tool)
- Make sure you choose FAT32 as file system before format
- Check if you got the correct total size of the formatted sd card
- Shutdown your phone, put your sdcard, boot directly to recovery
if the recovery is able to recognize the sd card with the correct total size, then you don't have a hardware failure.

When you connect it to a PC, when viewing My Computer as it used to be called, you can see all of the drives, C:, D: etc, on that screen if you right click above your SD card drive select rename, it should be under removable drives. A long shot but also an easy one so worth a punt.

@zlazaar Hey buddy, so I downloaded the SD Formatter, and did a quick format (should I have done full Format - if yes, which one - Erase or overwrite). I also tried the Format Size Adjustment ON and OFF.
I have 2 SD Cards, one 128gb and the other a 32gb. The SD Formatter formatted the 128gb card as an exFAT, and the it formatted the 32gb card as a FAT32. However, TWRP still didn't recognize either of the cards. I still dont have the cards running on the phone..
