I have problems formatting my SD card back to FAT after WP7 install. I have tried multiple solutions which were posted here but nothing helps. Things I've tried:
Boot into MAGLDR, select USB MassStrg, format with Panasonics SD formatter.
sd card don't even appear as a disk in my computer, so i can't select it in SD formatter. (i've installed HTC sync and android api in case there were problems with drivers, but no luck)
I've tried to format using Clockwork Mod via AD Recovery.
No luck here as well (Error could not mount sdcard). However an extra drive appeared in My Computer, thou it was faded out and sayon that no media present
Installed Windows Mobile, it couln't format the car as well, and it didn't appear as a drive in My Computer.
After all that i assumed that the card is toast. But after installing WP7 back, it did recognize the card and could use it without any problems. Is there anything else i can do, or should I just by a new card?
The SD Card is locked and somebody (at least the ROM creator) should have warned you...
You can only unlock it with a Nokia E-Series Phone or N95 as they can format it without to look if its locked or not.
A cheaper solution is available at Ebay, but be warned I haven´t tested it so far
Search for "ezSD Ghost Unlock Clip for MicroSD / SDHC unlock", sorry I am not allowed to post the direct link due to the newbie restrictions.
search some more, there are a lot of guides on how to "fix" your sd card after you've used WP7 on the HD2. believe me there are a LOT of such threads!
also, i think there is an option somewhere in MAGLDR, something like "fix sd card MBR"...try that.
finally, if you want to use any desktop software to try to fix the sd card, it is better to remove the sd card from the HD2 and insert it into a card reader. i am saying this because i noticed you mentioned that you tried to use the panasonic formatter while the sd card was mounted via usb cable via MAGLDR's usb disk mode.
EDIT: i used google keywords "xda hd2 sd card after wp7" and clicked first result to get to this lively discussion:

The easiest and quickest way is to use "MiniTool Partition Wizard", the home edition works perfectly fine. Put your SD card into your reader, open the program, you will see the SD card there. Delete the partitions that are on there and click apply, it will empty the card, and will have no partitions/data, just blank. Then install your android build partition scheme through CWM.

WP7 locks the SD card and makes it totally unusable. If you had installed XBMOD ROM for WP7, then you will have to reinstall wp7 again and use storage unlock cab. Else, simpler is to use Nokia smartphones (E63) works too, to format the card.
It for sure does not show in any other program.

I confirm I've got back in use my microSD card by formating it with an E series Nokia(I don't remember which model, I'm not familiar with)!
from wht i can understand is tht ur card is not detected at all d reason is clear d filesystem tht wp7 makes on sd card is not recognised by d windows n hence it doesnt recognise one way to sort out dis prob is by using GParted its a partition manager n if u hav ever used ubuntu(linux) u can get it thru d same. Just go to gaprted slect ur sc card frm d drop down (as it ll show ur hdd n sdcard as 2 diff. storage) wen u select it u ll c a black partition(unknown) just delete it(also if der r any other parition delete it) after that right click on unallocated space n select new partition select d filesystem as fat32 n ur done reboot d pc n ur card ll b detected back in windows

i tied it in the xpressmusic nokia , still doesnt work
maybe it works on cards that ran nodo OS and before, and not the new mango /tango OS?
Hm, I had the Problem only after i broke up the first boot... Normal Minitool sees two Partitions, but after this only unusable Space...
I used this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510444
Here the way i fixed it:
1. Go to Services and Clear SD MBR.
2. Boot Windows, but hold vol down at the 1234 Message.
3. confirm the Factory Reset.
4. Let it boot
5. No you can delete or creat Partitions with Minitool, or simply format it with SD Formater, that makes one big Partition.
If don´t work with your rom, try the ROM in the Link...
I hope it works for you too...

i may be afraid my sdcard may be defective in addition to being locked by wp7.
i tried in a variety of nokia devices, none is working
if that's the case your card "might" be really defective or there are some serious encryption on that thing :silly:

though i read in another wp7 forum with an obscure topic on it.

Ok well I removed my sd card from my G1, and when I put it back in it gives me a "Blank SD Card" notification. I tried resetting my G1, and it didnt work. So I mounted it on my laptop and now it says "Drive G is not formatted would you like to format now?." I am really not trying to lose all my data and apps, and I kno my stuff didnt get deleted, how can this b fixed?
One of two ways, in my eyes.
First try looking at paragon, it might be able to find the partitions again and hopefully repair them.
Two try a data recovery program, personally I like GetDataBack but it only works for FAT and NTFS and not EXT2 if your data and apps were on that partition.
Hmm I tried GDB and it took about an hour and what do u kno I need the licensed version to get my files off, and will Paragon work? Cuz I dont wanna waste another hour.
SD Card fix ok
just put the sd card inside the adapter that all sd card brings when you get it.ok
AND than insert it on your labtop and copy all your files to your computer and format your sd card..

Have you tried inserting the sdcard into a computer running ubuntu? It will probably recognize the ext partition without any trouble.

I dunno, that's why I asked if you had tried it yet or not. You can always burn a Ubuntu livecd and test it without installing anything. As long as the partition table is intact it should be accessible.

I loaded up Cyanogen's latest last week, formatted my 16gb to EXT2 and Fat32... all was working great for a week, then today, my G1 went blank. Upon a restart, the SD card came up with "Blank SD Card." Viewing the card from my card reader... can't read any files... what's the program that you "found?" I'll probably just fight through reformatting and rebuilding all my files... Later I'll perform file backup when I get it right.
this sound like your problem??
Hey asaspades, something like this happened to me a while back and I could read it on my laptop/cardreader and recover my files and reformat. Obv u have tried this. The thing is the same thing has hsappened not 10 min ago lol. When this happened before I was running my g1 as stock but now I have cyanmod (3.6.8.1 I think) amd apps 2 sd on ext2 partition. I am not at a computer atm but will try to recover the same way as before though I won't be able to access the ext2 partition (will try with ubuntu, hav wubi installer on pc). Oh and I rebooted after I realised something was wrong and now have a constant preparing sd card checking for errors notification. This sound kinda similar to your problem at all? I would like to know what is causing this. Maybe I just have a bad/corrupted sdcard lol. Anyway its really pissin me off not knowing
Left 4 a while and it now says damaged sdcard you may need to reformat.
How could it be possible I always used my 2gb micro SD but last night I made the decision to say bye to winmo n started using my 16gb. So I transfers the android folder to it used it n all was good then I wanted to back up all of my winmo files so i remove the SD card from my phone n place it in my card reader..n said to reformat the card..I HAVE NO ACCESS TO MY SD CARD.. I can't even format it some how it got protected...even my phone days to formatted but is never successful...ANY ADVISE THANK YOU

ive got a sd problem too. i ever used the same 16gb class2 microsd card tu run android builds and store winmo and android data. last night ive tried to switch from darkstone to matcc android build. i reformatted the sd card, put the files on it (only android folder nothing else) and started android. everything was fine but i´ve got a bsod(radio 2.12.50_2 and german stock vodafone rom). then ive tried another android build but i got the same error(doesnt ever got bsod before). later android didn start at all(every build). then ive tried chuckys rom with matcc vers. 1.5 and ive got the bsod problem again. tried 2 other builds and now andriod doesnt start and i cant even connect my hd2 to my pc(bootloader doesnt connect too) but chucky rom boots correctly. everytime ive tried another build i reformatted my sd card to fat32. hope someone can help me, sorry for bad english.
i got this problem now too. android somehow writeprotected my sd card so i can't put files on or take files off anymore...it's basicallly made my 16gb card useless. can't format or anything. tried through windows mobile, pc, and android...nothing works. anybody know how to fix it?
Same thing happened to me. My class 2 16gb card is now locked and ive found no way to unlock it.
Not that I really liked that card anyway, but it was nice to have so much storage space.
thats no problem. On your adapter for your micro sd card, there is a lock on the side of it. Make sure that it is in the up position. Basically in the unlock position, then it wont be write protected.
No, your not understanding. Its not the physical lock on the adaptor, its a logical lock on the Micro SD itself.
The Micro SD card comes up as locked no matter what I use to try and format, or delete etc.
I've googled like mad trying to find a way to fix it even installing Ubuntu to see if another OS could do it, but everything fails.
Same here I came to a conclusion. That there are some files in the SD card....what was the last buid u were using before this happened...the best solution. For this should be with an android. Phone and astro file management explore the SD card...unlucky. me none of my friends have an android device

And U can use other partition tools.
the better way to format sd is using cardreader instead of using usb cable

Insert USB reader into Windows Vista/7 PC
Run Command prompt
1. Start and Run DiskPart
Type DISKPART and press enter
2. List all disks on system in DiskPart

select disk <number>
4. Create a partition with DiskPart
create partition primary
5. List all partitions in DiskPart
list partition
6. Select a partition to manage in DiskPart
select partiton <number>
7. Format a volume or partition in DiskPart
type Format.

i've asked you on your youtube link but also on here if you don't mind
i have a working 8GB PNY micro sd card that has been reformated from 199mb capacity
i want my hd2 wm7 to recognise it so i can use it to store more conversations, applications and put music on
do you have any idea how i can achieve this?
If wp7 doesn't recognise it, maybe its not supported, there is a thread on here with the sd cards that are supported, have you checked if your sd card is supported?

yes sorry to say your sd card is gone, all data is lost.
you can go back to wm6.6 by flashing a stock or custom rom, just boot into the tricolour screen and flash as you would any normal rom
Thanks God anyway
but when i try to flash custom Rom it gaves me connection error on the installation progress
why is that ?
I just mount SD card in MAGLDR then diskpart clean it then format it normally...

Hey Dude thanks for getting my card back very much appreciated, excellent tutorial
Manual with Command promt
1. Run command prompt with admin privileges
2. Type in diskpart
3. Type in "list disk" to find diskpart's designation for your flash drive
4. Assuming your flash drive is disk 1 type:
a. select disk 1
b. clean
c. create partition primary
d. select partition 1
e. active
f. format fs=fat32 quick
g. assign
h. exit
after runnng wm7, i still can format sdcard by using another android phone/nokia phone. And the sdcard is recognized when my phone is running android/wm7/wm6.5). But there are 2 weird problems that i can't solve:
1. cannot use SD formatter v.30 software to format my sdcard again. always get error message when the format process reaches 30-40%. Even if i pre format my sdcard by using another software(hard disck low level format, partition wizard) /phone( android phone, nokia, window 6.5 phone), SD formatter still can't format my sdcard.
2. cannot install any android SD builds. When the android boots, the screen show me " ... cannot find any logical sector..."
thanks!

Format WP7 SD with photo camera
I had a very unconventional method to restore my SD card.
I put it in my Canon photo camera and did a low level format.
After this I could access it fully again through windows / android.
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?
