hello.
I had no problems with my sd card, until I installed MccMBoxmaX Transformer SS V 7.5.
Everything goes fine, I run wm6 and from the sd card the android, but once android it says sd card damaged. I format the card from the android system and then when I try to mount it from the system it doesn´t recognizes it.
Can anyone help me with this?
The sd card is correct, since it works fine as it reads the android system.
Thank you
Similar problem. Would appreciate some help please.
I am having the same problem. The SD Card works great with WM, WP7, Android MIUI and other non HTC Sense builds but when I install HTC Sense builds, "damaged sd card" message shows up...still searching for solution
In post 2 of the Transformer ROM post is the answer...you need to format your SD with the tool provided there, then reinstall the ROM and you are good to go.

Yes, this worked for me...installed SDFormatter and formated the SD card. However, Do I need to reinstall the ROM? The phone seem to be working fine.
Thanks
Are you running the Transformer ROM now? If so, and its working good, no need to reinstall..although I'm not sure how you can format your card and still have the ROM on it without reinstalling..

Hello guys.
I have a HTC HD2 running Windows Phone 7 (on MagLdr 1.2).
I want to DualBoot Android AND WPH. Ive watched a tut on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JTHRAUHZHlo
I did exactly the same and after that i took this Android DesireHD Built: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
It worked fine but android said, that there isnt a sd card in the device. Of course it is, cuz android boots from the sd card. When i remove my sd card, android freezes (of course). I tried to restart and i put the 512 MB data.img in the folder but there was the same problem again..
I tried it with an other card and i pushed the button "mount sd card"
and than it said "u can take out the sd card now" (or something like that)
Plz help me!
I am having the exact same problem. Have you found the problem/solution to it.
thanks.
you both update you magldr that should fix your issues.
so get newest radio, than flsh magldr 1.3
before you update make a complete backup!!
hope you both have the right partition layout on sd card.
(first partition must be fat32 second ext3 or ext4)
hope this helps.
for tut look at forums or pm me!!
Can someone describe the exact steps that are required to mount the SD card when the Android build is being run off the SD card using MAGLDR.

They are running Android from their SD card. It is not going to show a SD card being in the device because Android thinks the SD card is the device......

This will not help them at all, MAGLDR just serves as the bootloader for Android not the OS.
Allso you can not remove your SD card will booted into Android if you are using a SD card build it is running of the SD card not NAND.

So basically I cannot mount the SD card, no matter how it is formatted ?
I totally have this same problem. Neither WP7 or Droid will read the 16 GB card I'm using to run Droid. I think I'm using the DesireHD build also, maybe its that? I can probably see if changing it makes a difference.
I have the same problem. First time i installed WP7 and android, everything was working fine. Then i had to reset WP7 because it kept freezing, i followed the same steps again to dual boot with android and it booted fine but SD CARD is not mounted for some reason. I have tried 3 different android builds with same problem. Any help or tutorials?

This happened to me too with two SD cards. What I did was I run the Partition SD Card from AD Recovery. I forgot the partition layout, just find something that works for you. I was surprised that it has successfully created a partition...this erased everything so I needed to re-copy ROM files to SD card via Card Reader on my PC.
When I did it over, It finally worked. Am now running Sensation XL ROM.
HTH
I just switched from a 2.2 version of android to a gingerbread version on my hd2. The problem I am having is that now my phone says SD card damaged. It worked on my old version and is Able to be read when I'm in magldr and use USB mass storage but not on this android. I tried to format in android that didn't work and tried formatting with windows. I don't understand why it can be read sometimes but not others but would appreciate it if someone could help me get this to work or atleast get it to reformat so can be used. Thanks
What exact ROM are you using? Were you running any partitions(EXT3/EXT4).
Gpc_hd2_gingerbread_v1.7
No partitions
what did you use to try and format it in windows? search in the forum for the panasonic sd formatter or google it if you haven't tried using it already.
I have not tried the Panasonic SD formatter I will give it a try at work since my computer is down for the time being. What is the difference between that program and the windows formatting program though?
In simple terms, one does it better than the other.

You also have to consider d possibility dat ur sd card is losing it gradually...My previous 8GB sd card works flawlessly on WinMo but whenever i flash an android build (tried several, same result), it works 4 awhile then mounts as read only or as ur described, sd damaged...a quick 4mat wit panasonic sd formatter wakes it back only for it 2 repeat d process....
I bought another sd card and haven't had any issues wit it watsoever...my old 8gb card still works but i guess its 2 weak for android's constant reading & writing.
Im having the same problem. Card works fine in everything but Android on HD2, NAND not SD Rom.
Ive formatted form Windows but i'll try the Panasonic one as well. If not would a 16GB card be compatible or would it be too big?
The size isn't a problem as long as your phone supports it. Just make sure you format the correct ext size partitions etc...
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
Is there a guide/thread explaining how I go about creating ext size partitions on SD cards & what size etc?
I run off a NAND ROM if that makes any difference?
Sorry i'm new to Android!
I tried the Panasonic formatter but it still says damaged SD. Still works in mass storage mdgrl or whatever it is. And asks to be formatted when I try to use it in XP

I have the same ROM & just keeps saying SD card damaged. I've formatted in windows & in the clockwork recovery tool but to no avail. I dont want to buy a new card just to have the same problem!
You should avoid using mass storage in MAGLDR.

Hey, I got it working, I followed this guide & it worked 1st time.
I am running Infinity alpha 3 and everything is running supper except that I keep getting the "SD card unexpectedly removed" message and can't do anything to fix it except reboot but then I get it again after a few minutes. The card is class 10 16gb freshly formated.
Any help is appreciated

The strange thing is that with another 16gb card the problems persist but when I put in the stock 8gb card that came whit the phone everything is working fine. All the ad cards are working fine whit other roms.
That's just feedback for everyone and team virtuous.

try reformatting the cards that aren't working, in FAT32 format. Don't choose quick format!
Let me know if that works for you.
Already did that with both the non working cards.
And also tried different cluster sizes.

Could you try this:
-try to format your card on a different pc. It is preferable to use a card reader.
Some ppl were having the same issue.
It turned out that to some of them the sd was damaged (it needed to be replaced), others tried to format the card using another card reader (full format) and it worked.
Also, if you could, try a different sd card (new one if possible) other than the one it came with. does it work?
"SD card unexpectedly removed" thats what i get on all ICS roms,it cant be cards error as it works fine on Ginger roms,tried format tried all things that i know

When you say all ICS ROMs does it include the stock ROM as well? Have you tried different SD Cards?
Have you tried your card on a different ICS phone?
I have tried other ics roms (sense 4.0а, AOSP) but never had this problem before.
Also all the cards works in recovery.

I have 30gb sd card. How to best format partitions ? what type ? FAT32,ext2,ext3,ext4.. ? have about 400 apps, need a lot of space for a link to SD

If your computer's OS is Windows, I suggest you use FAT32 because your computer can read it.
On the other hand, ext2/4 can not be read on windows without a special extbrowser.
Now even though the FAT32 wastes some space in your SD, it hasn't been a problem for many ppl.
Same error - on Sense-based ROMs only
I have the EXACT same issue of the SD card unmounting itself randomly. I tried 2 different SD cards (8 GB, 32 GB) BUT the problem ONLY happens with Sense-based ICS ROMs. Already did a CHKDSK via windows and found no errors.
MIUI 2.8.x works perfectly, no errors whatsoever over 1 week period. But on ROMs like BlackOut, Mabsa and Nik Project X, I get it every hour or so and have to do a restart. All other features of those ROMs work great otherwise, even the USB storage mounting via the PC works fine (until the error pops up).
Would appreciate any help!

Did you happen to not safely remove the sd card from USB storage? Also have you tried using a sd card formatter there are plenty free to download and may fix sd cards not recognized by windows. I have had this happen but only when I flashed wp7 and messed up my sd

What ROM are you using?
By the way, android needs to format a new sdcard so it can be used to store data on.

aurora ics. i want to get back to stock 2.3.5 cause can't stand the battery drain any more but i can't as bootloader doesn't recognize the sd card
So your sdcard is pretty much completely dead? Can your computer recognize your SD card? If your pc can recognize it but your phone can not then you should send your phone to service. Also try reformatting the SD card and installing Aurora ICS by doing a clean install through your internal SD card.
EDIT: You can install zips from internal SD card using TWRP v2.5.0.0 by forumber2.

Hey. Thanks for your reply. Yes computer recognizes the card just fine. I tried formating the card but don't work. There are times when card is being recognized but not for too long. And that happens to recovery mode.Can u give me steps or link to flash rom via internal sd?
Sent from my U8800 using xda app-developers app
Ask someone on the u8800 forum. I have a u8800pro sorry. I'm assuming that you have to move the zip into your internal memory, then install twrp 2.5.0.0 and choose install zip from internal memory.

yeah, the thing is that i cannot use my internal memory. when i try to download the rom from my phone it asks for sd and when i try to move rom from sd to internal sd it says error. i also tried to make my internal sd card "external sd card" but when i try to safe the system/etc file it says it can't be saved
Why don't you download the ROM to your computer and move it to your internal SD card with a USB cable?
