I'm having problems with my SD 2gb card from SanDisk (made in China) , the data is corrupted . Just bought a Kingston 2gb, made in Taiwan, slightly thicker than de SanDisk (just the feeling I think) and hope that the problem stays away. Are there more people that have the same problem with de HTC P3600 (HTC Trinity, SPV M700) in combination with a sd mini card? I've send a mail to de customer service yesterday and received an automatic reply. Now it is waiting for an answer. I have the hope it is just a small parameter in the setting of the PDA. When I let the PDA go to standby itself after 2 minutes it seems to be OK for now at least. Please give me some reactions from P3600 owners! Look at this link for the same problems on the Artemis: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285511
problem with mini SD
Hy
it seems that P3600 have several problem with mini SD.
first of this expencive pocket diamond does not like all kind fo mini SD..moreover i used a kingston 2GB and it was working well since 3 days ago...then BLACK OUT.
The pocket pc soes not see the mini sd anymore!!
Why? I really do not know, but i'm not the only one who is experienced in this beautiful situation!
HTC says that the problems with the artemis and the sd-card are depending on a software bug together with WM5, and they are working on it. I think, it is the same bug with the trinity
I have a microSD with miniSD Adapter, and is corrupted, and the size of corrupted data is increasing day after day ....
After few days I need format this f***ing card ..... I hope HTC fix this bug soon !!!!!!

it happened to me couple of times with a trascend mini sd 2gb.
it really really sucks.
coming from a Mac only world sometime I feel throwing the trinity down a bridge is the best thing to do... I'm not used to crashes and corruption.
But hey, it's the only way to actually use skype when I'm around...
anyway, last week I've installed Trinity Hacks 0.2 a free app that modify the registry, one of the functions is to fix SD compatibility.
I didn't have problems since
This is what HTC told me:
Thanks for your email regarding your P3600. The SanDisk Ultra II 2gb mini SD card is not compatible with the device. Instead of an Ultra card you need a standard mini SD card with no more than 2GB.
I bought a Kingston 2GB and it's running a few days without any problem, keeped my fingers crossed while typing this!
I think I have the fix, instead of re-formatting the card connect the trinity (or data card) to your PC, make sure you can see hidden files and folders, search for a folder/directory starting "MSM". Delete this folder and all the files that have become an issue become unlocked.
Sorry if some one else has posted this fix, just saved myslef hours re-installing TomTom by doing this.
Hope this helps

Hi!
After carrieng my card inside my wallet for some time, it isn`t regognized by the HD nor via USB to PC connection.
Any hints are really appreciated!
I had a similar problem although i hadnt been carrying the card in my wallet. You can see the thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=525322 but in a nutshell i had to format the card.
card problem
i had the same problem with my HD stopping seeing the card, and also on my pc, after some research and calls to orange, it turns out that the cards are not very stable and can be lost at any time, i had to get a new one(under warranty) and it now works fine, they do not know if the cards are a bit iffy or if the HD is wearing them out, but it is a known problem.
How could you formate it, while not regognized by OS?
Thanks for the replies, I`ll call my provider. What brand did you recieve with the HD? I forgot it and have two of the same size.
SDFormatter
Had the same problem, but after formatting it with Panasonic SDFormatter 2.0.0.3 (freeware) solved the problem. Have formatted it 2 months ago.
I just had the same problem to. And yeah, I thought to myself how the hell am I gonna format it when nothing can read it! I've got a Nokia (I know, I said a bad word!) E51 for work which could read it though, plugged the phone into my computer and formated it! I had also noticed that if I put it in my girlfriends Andriod phone it popped up an error and gave me the option to format it.
Does anyone know of a Nokia/Symbian phone available in the US to unlock WP7 formatted cards? I went to T-Mobile yesterday and they didn't have any Nokias on display. I would like to have my card usable again.
the nokia N8 or any symbian phone running the same version os, you cannot unlock the card, just format. I brough my microsd alive yesterday using the N8, i dont have the phone, but i have many friends who works as promotors for nokia, samsung, LG etc. so i tried the N8 yesterday.
the instructions.
you can put the microsd hotswap or have the phone turned off,
the phone will detect the microsd, and ask for a passwork/id (after it's been in a windows phone, the microsd will be locked, and as normal you wont have the password/id).
press cancel.
in the main menu, goto applications, and select office, file mgr.
after you press file mgr., you will have 3 drives to choose from, the last one should be the microsd, and it should'nt show any figures of the size of the usage.
press and hold, you will have 2 options to choose from.
unlock microsd and format.
select format.
that it.
Nokia dumb phones also use Symbian right? Would the ATT Nokia 6350 work as well?

i think symbian ^3 only, you can try them on others, it may work, but have'nt tried it.
I doubt a regular Nokia phone will work. I tried a Nokia flip phone & it asks for a password, but when you cancel it didn't let me format the card. I went through every menu option without luck.
N8 and C5 works, tried them myself, c6 and C7 should also work, or the latest touch screen in the C series.
The Sony Vivaz will also format. And BTW... I put my microsd card into laptop (using adapter) and after multiple tries it did actually format !

How did you get your laptop to even see the card? My PC won't even acknowledge that I've but the card in the slot, much less offer to reformat.
I have a perfectly good 16gb Sandisk that is useless since I exchanged my Focus for a Captivate on Newyears Eve.
Any info appreciated.
I did it on my HP Laptop with Vista OS. Could it be that I lucked out ? It was a Sandisk 32GB MicroSD card (no class type printed on card). I have also heard that many digital cameras can format them so try that as well. And even worst case try this puppy...

sd formatter does not work.
Well... it was only a shot at it. And only a guess, but Android phones have a nice utility built in to format micro sd cards as well.
Put the card into Android based phone (2.2 version), then Settings>SD card and phone storage>Format SD card
May work, may not but there are many alternatives to get the card to format. Just keep trying. Like I said, I was lucky enough that my laptop did format after having the card in my Samsung Focus.
Edit: Also note that XP and Vista have some issues. Read article 40, 41, 42 from this list ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital#cite_note-39
You could also try a laptop or computer running Windows 7.
I have a problem with my HD MINI I have Android 2.2 on it and I can´t use my SD-Card. I tried to format it with fat32 but it didn´t work. I have and 8GB Micro SD Card by Hama, Class 2 and i don´t know what to do Please answer
maybe a hard reset might help, if not buy a better sd card eg. sandisk, kingston, samsung.......
Sandisk not works for me. Tried 2 sandisk not working
Sent from my HTC Liberty using XDA App
Have you tried formatting it using your phone? There is a tool somewhere in the WinMo if you use a stock ROM or a custom ROM that didn't remove it. Good luck!
I tried to format but it didn´t work later as well I´m sure I´ll buy a new one which one are working?
Htc Hd Mini Android Sd Card Problems
Even me too have the same problem. My SD card is Sandisk 8GB micro sd , also fat 32. Still its not detecting the Memory card. So not able to use the camera , not able to browse the files etc
Just to confirm, I've tried two Sandisk SD Cards and neither of them work. However I picked up a TDK card and it worked absolutely fine. Looks like Sandisk is a very unreliable card to use for Android. I've never seen anyone launch Android on one!

Chaps
I dont think it is the memory cards. I have just had my new HTC Sensation delivered and it cannot read the supplied 8gig card that comes with it ( that contains a copy of the ROM\Software ).
I put the same card in my HTC Hero running Elelinux ROM ( Android 2.2.3 ) and it read it no problem. Also my PC read the card , no issue. I put my HTC Hero card in the HTC Sensation and it wouldnt read that card. The Sensation is running Android 2.3.3 straight from Orange.
Phoned Orange last night as the phone only arrived in the morning. They are sending me a replacement phone today via courier.
Lots of discussion about this on HTC Sensation, EVO 4G, Desire and Wildfire on the net. Also, in the USA Sprint have issued a software update for the EVO to cure the problem.
I have made a note of my software stack so i can compare with what arrives later today. Suspect that if it isnt a hardware issue then its a software problem. Nothing worked to get the twoc ards workign in my phone, hard resets etc. The phone wasnt detecting the card being put in - normally on the OS sees the card insert and you get a message 'preparing SD Card' . Mine totally dead in this respect.
Lets see what happens today.

Has anyone tried using hd2 in Magldr? I read this has an option to format if the card is locked by WP7.
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
confirm nokia e65 can format them, unfortunately it can only accept up to 4gb micro sd size...
nokia 6700 (classic) does NOT work - recognises the passworded sd card but requires to enter password to perform the format
i can try test old Nokia 5700 X.M. and Nokia 7020 but for now dont want extra job to setup again WP7 from beginning... maybe in few weeks
Nokia E66
Hi All
I can confirm that the Nokia E66 works perfectly in reviving a WP7 encrypted SD card.
Nokia C5-00 is failing big time because he needs a password to unluck the SD Card (why on earth, just zero the card down and don't whine stupid phone).
How about nokia E52? Will it work?

PS: - My SD card was locked with the Mango Update
EDIT: - When formatting using Nokia it will ask for password, well password is not necessary, please read this

6700 has no cancel option, only select and 'back'. it's impossible to get past the password screen.
Somehow my C5 still did the trick! Just inserted and pulled out the memory card for a couple of times, then you can format the SD card! Itought it was only with the older Nokia OS to do it (Symbian 40?) but the C5-00 can do it too!
My Fujifilm FinePix S700 had no problem formatting a card previously deemed "write-protected" by my partition program.
