Touch HD MicroSD Card missing

I searched the forum, Google and whatnot. But no solution seemed to help me with this problem. About a week ago my MicroSD card dissappeard on my Touch HD. I removed the SD card, put it back in and it was there again. The next day, it happened to me again. I tried to do the same as I did before, but this wouldn't help.
I have changed the registry according to this page right here, but that didn't help either.
Now thinking it was a ROM problem, I upgraded to Miri's v15 and the problem is still there. Then again I changed the registry values. But my SD Card is still missing. Does this mean my SD card is broken? Or does anybody have an other solution that might work?
Thanks in advance!

Formatage sd Doit Etre Suffisant (FAT 32)

Seems your SD card is broken, the same happend to me some time back.

I'm not sure if you understood the non English post above, but it seems they are suggesting the same as I'm about to.
Try to format your sd card on your pc using a card reader. Format it to FAT32. If you are lucky you may still be able to retrieve the data off of it via the pc, if so back it up to your pc, format the card and then you can transfer the data back.

It does sound like those above have suggested. You'll need to format your SD Card. Make sure you backup whatever files you have on it first

I recognize the problem, I've also had this, first check your sd card for the problem, those things are very fragile...

android
Hi, thbis happend to me when i was testing android, I lst all my data but was able to repair it and get it working intermittently by reformatting it. It turned out to be the shelby ROM I was using as when I reflashed with a different ROM the problem went away, it may have been android that corrupted the driver or something but starting from scratch with a new rom and reformatted card worked for me.

Thanks for your support. Today I formatted my MicroSD card with a Nokia phone. This phone recognized my SD Card AND all of the files that where on there. Replacing my SD card with the one in the Nokia gave me the same problem. My Touch HD wouldn't recognize the SD Card. So I guess it's a problem with my Touch HD then?
Knowing that the registry edit didn't work, what else can I try? Don't really feel like flashing to a stock rom and sending it to HTC...

*bump* anyone ? My MicroSD card still isn't working

You checked for bent pins or some form of obstruction in the microsd slot? If you tried another card and same problem then it's going to be the device somehow.

I did a hard reset on my Touch HD. It works.

[Q] SD card doesn't work after reboot

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

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...

[Q] Issues with SD Card not mounting on CM10

Hi guys, long time reader and first time poster here with a question. I apologize in advance if this has been asked and answered, but I have searched throughout the nook forums and have not found a solution yet to my problem and any help is greatly appreciated.
I have been wanting to use CM10 as my daily driver on my nook for awhile now, however everytime I flash the ROM and get things set up, I run into an issue where the ROM does not consider my SD card to be mounted. I have adjusted the settings to be set to Mass USB Storage as one person suggested in the development thread, I have formatted it numerous times to try to see if that was causing the issue, and so far nothing has worked.
I know that the SD card that is in my nook is good as it shows up in ICS without any problems. Does anyone else have any idea on what I could try to get the SD card to mount properly in CM10?
Thanks again for any help, and many apologies if this is answered in another thread.

When you say mounted, you mean you cannot see it under storage devices within CM10? It does not show up in your file manager? That USB mass storage setting is just for seeing on your PC when you plug the USB cable in. It has nothing to do with seeing the card in CM10. And you tried formatting several times you said. How did you format it? In the PC with windows? You need to try SDFormatter which is a free windows program on the web. Other users have said that that makes them show up on the Nook. When the nook first starts up, it tries to read the SD and scan it, if it can't, it won't mount it. There could be something very simple wrong with the card that the nook sees and your PC does not.

Leap,
I have to apologize, I used the wrong terminology in my original post. It seems that the issue I am having is with the SD card being stuck in RO mode and not being able to write to it from CM10. Anything that I have tried to download via the Play Store fails to install with an error saying that it could not install to USB Storage or SD Card. I have formatted the card via Windows, CWM, and using the SDFormatter program to no avail. I have also tried to fix permissions via CWM and Rom Manager and that has not resulted in resolving the issue that I seem to be having. I love the speed at which CM10 runs, and if I can get the SD Card to be RW it would easily replace the ICS build that I've been using forever now, I just don't know what else I can try to get the card to be RW while running CM10.

The problem is CM10 is very finicky about the format on the card. If it does not like it, it mounts it read only. Look for SDFormatter on the web and format with that. Should fix it.
Edit, I just reread and said you tried that. That should have fixed it. Do it again but turn off quick format.

Leap,
Thank you for all the help you've provided, however it doesn't seem that doing a long format with overwrite in SD Formatter got it to work. I'm going to retreat back to ICS for now.

Just a question, after you format the card, do you move any files in it? I had the same exact problem and it must have been a defective file in my titanium backup folder because I had no problem using the same sd when I synch'd titanium via dropbox.
I installed the 19/11 nightly and it is better than anything I ever run on nook. even CM7

Tschumi,
After I finish formatting it via SD Formatter, I place it back into the nook completely blank and reboot the nook. After that, I try to download anything from the play store that requires SD install and it fails to install.

Use ROM Manager and select "Format SD card" which will allow apps to install. Nook will reboot into CWM and begin formatting SD card. Be FOREWARNED! You will lose anything you have stored on the SD card so make a backup and trasnsfer to your PC or somewhere you can later retrieve.

Ok so here's an update on this issue for me. It appears that no matter how many times I used SD Formatter to format my 16Gb micro sd card, it would not be recognized by CM10. I grabbed an old 8Gb micro SD card and threw it in my nook and it worked perfectly, so it appears that there's an underlying issue with the card itself that was causing the problems. Thanks to everyone for the tips and advice on how to fix this issue for me. I appreciate it.

Same issue here

I am having the same issue with my 16GB Patriot microSD card. The card is recognized, but always displays as full (26GB used) in the settings menu. I have reformatted numerous times to no avail. I have an old 4GB card in there now with no issues.

It is that Patriot brand and CM10. CM10 is very finicky about sdcards. If it does not like how one performs, it changes it to read only. You can try formatting the card with SDFormatter, which you can get free on the web. That may help, but it may not.

[Q] Installed MicroSD Card Not Detected

Hi Everyone
Any ideas why my Moto X Play would not even see my brand new MicroSD Card?
It's 128GB and so far I've tried it formatted as both EXFAT and FAT32 and no dice! It just doesn't even see the card.
Anyone have a guess at what gives?
**Edit**
So I've tried multiple sizes and brands of SD cards and none of them seem to be detected by android. Also tried resetting the device and no dice. Looks like my card reader may be borked.
** Edit 2**
I ended up having to return my device, as the card reader was pooched. The store simply did an over the counter exchange.

Can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. Maybe the card isn't mounted properly (in the wrong position) or as you said, you may have a faulty card reader on your phone.

I may be suffering the same issue. Have you been able to achieve anything regarding this?

I ended up having to return mine. The SD card reader was dead as I had suspected.

if you can format the sd card that means your phone see's the card and you can choose weather if you want to format as internal or external i like it internal but you have to get a faster card for sure and if you switching card from 16g to 32g....ect you have to forget the latter card then you can restore all your files. it worked for me.

SD Card showing Unsupported and Unmounting automatically on Android, fine in laptop

Hi,
My Sandisk Ultra 32GB microsd card is not getting mounted on my Moto X Play from yesterday on. It was working perfectly before that.
Problem in Detail: Yesterday when i tried to play some music only I realized that its not getting mounted. I tried removing the card and reinserting it. But it's not showing up any notification. When I went to 'Storage and USB' settings suddenly after reboot, its showing 'Unsupported' for a minute and is getting unmounted automatically.
Possible Cause: One of my friend connected my phone with USB cable to his laptop day before yesterday for transferring data. I dunno exactly whether its infected or he didn't eject it properly.
What all I Tried: Initially, I tried connecting it to my laptop using Card Reader. Fortunately, everything was fine inside the system. The file system FAT32, all the data it had, and no memory was unallocated. Afterwards I did a quick format and a complete format as well, with file system FAT32. Both didn't help anyway. Then I installed mini tool partition wizard. But haven't done anything with that yet.
Kindly help me with this ASAP.

Can you use your SD card with the phone ?I have the same problem - my sd card is not recognized by my MXP. There was some speculation that the SD card slot is not working properly or just damaged however all SD cards I have are working fine just nor with my phone.As of today there seems to be no fix to this bug.

I have tried this SD card in my friend's phone and it is working fine.
Afterwards, tried formatting the card from that phone, my laptop, (quick & complete with different names) and the tool "sd card formatter" (erased everytihng).
I even tried a factory reset of my phone.
Nothing helps. Really frustrated

try the slow format sd card option from pc...
