Windows Phone 7 formatted the SD cart as FAT16, MAGLDR can't read this format.
You can reformated with a SD card reader and a any partion manager program, format as FAT32 and MAGDLR will work.

If they used the XBmod-Yuki 7720 ready ROM rather than HD2Owner's V1.20 WP7 Build 7720 [test ver. 1] their SD cards were formatted with Microsoft's WP7 proprietary SD format. This explains why their SD card readers could not recognize their cards. This by now is a well known issue, and therefore the search link I gave above may be quite useful.

I Had Same issue. just solved it now, i had to re-flash with the old rom with memory card inserted, installed DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab which unlockes your SD card again, unlocked my memory card, then switch off, put into USB flasher mode and reflash with 7720 image and now unlocked SD card, detects ok again now all working

got both my SD cards working now with 7720, had to update phone to 7392 first with one card before i could unlock it. the previous rom drivers were no good with some cards.
Couldnt use or detect the card with any partitioning or Formatting software until i unlocked it in Windows phone 7 with DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab
hope this helps some others?

[Q] had wp7 running, switched sd cards, not neither card words

hi really did try searching for this couldn't find any help.
i successfully had WP7 on my hd2 with a 4GB card, had it activated via chat and everything. I wanted to put in my 16GB card and try setting up a dual boot with android.
WP7 gives me an error now "memory card not working" and my only option is to turn off phone (or make emergency call).
it gives me that error with the 4GB card and the 16GB card.
i have tried reflashing it with the 16GB in it and that doesn't work.
I have tried reflashing it with no card in it and that doesn't work.
pretty sure i tried with the 4GB card too.
i know both cards work. the 4GB still has the small partition and the larger unknown from the wp7 install.
any help please?
this is the ROM fyi

i'm seeing this
http //support.microsoft com/kb/2450831
""""This article provides information to help you understand how Windows Phone 7 devices use SD cards, the performance requirements of SD cards for Windows Phone 7 devices, and how your phone will behave if you remove the SD card or add a new one.
Some Windows Phone 7 devices include a Secure Digital (SD) card slot underneath the battery cover. If you buy a Windows Phone 7 device that includes an SD card slot, you should be aware of several important differences from other devices that use SD cards:
The SD card slot in your phone is intended to be used only by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) that built your phone and your Mobile Operator (MO). These partners can add an SD card to this slot to expand the amount of storage on your phone.
To help ensure a great user experience, Microsoft has performed exhaustive testing to determine which SD cards perform well with Windows Phone 7 devices. Microsoft has worked closely with OEMs and MOs to ensure that they only add these cards to Windows Phone 7 devices.
You should not remove the SD card in your phone or add a new one because your Windows Phone 7 device might not work properly. Existing data on the phone will be lost, and the SD card in your phone can't be used in other Windows Phones, PCs, or other devices.""""
not sure how to remedy this though.

I used a PNY 16GB c4 SD card for dual boot, no problem. WP7 is picky though.
4GB is cutting it WAY too close for any kind of functional dual boot. Each OS takes about 1GB. That doesn't leave you much room for anything else.

that's interesting that my pny 16GB doesn't work while yours does.
I tried to setup dual boot but i didn't do something right cause i get a load error when i try to do from the SD rom.
when setting the card up for dual boot, i was watching a youtube video of a person here doing it, at one point the partition they are working on goes from fat 16 to fat 32 but he doesn't describe doing it.
youtube.com/watch?v=jhuR59UXw_4&feature=player_embedded
i'm not sure if that is the prob or what. I ended up converting the partition to fat 32

i got the dual boot figured out using this guide instead:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYL1M40Ntzo&feature=player_embedded
there was some editing i was not doing.
this was with the 4GB. i'll try to find another bigger card that works.

[Q] After installing WP7 Rom - My SD is dead (both phone and PC)

Good day
i had working Dual boot OS with WP7 and android for the last 2 weeks on my HTC HD2 with 32Gb SanDisk MicroSD.
yesterday i wanted to make a new installation with other versions on the OS. So...
i formatted the SD card to New FAT32 and the PC recognize it well.
I went to install WP7 from there :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1236027
and after the installation the phone reboot and i did again hard reset for it to build up the partitions on the SD.
after the second boot the phone got stuck and i had to take the battery out in i wanted to start all over from the beginning.
when i went to format the SD again my Windows didn't find it nothing i did.
i i used all the partition application i know but nothing - no SD or dead sd.
i also installed Gparted and boot from the live cd but still no SD.
i installed original WM 6.5 - buy fuss what - still no SD installed.
i don't know what to do??????
i installed also android on hand and tried to format from the android but still - no SD installed.
is there some magic i can do?
or my SD is dead?
i hope i can fix it......
thanks

your SD card is locked.... BTTF lock card and that card not readable.... you must unlock card first... send unlock cab file to phone and after that you can format card (or use old Nokia phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242071)
if you want dual boot without worry about locking card, try use Pdaimatejam Rom or DFT UltraFruit
also you have video how to dual boot android and WP7 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356833

Hi
you have to use "ultimate boot cd", boot on, find your sd card and format
hope this help

Thanks

Did i brick my SD card with WP7 ??

Hi together,
i was very happy with my HD2 and WP7 Mango using a 32GB class 6 SD card.
Then i flashed my HD2 back to WM6.5 and send it back to Vodafone for a Hardware support issue.
then i tried the 32GB card with a cardreader in Windows. Nothing happened. I Neither see the normal 200MB partition in Windows.
I used severel Partion Software (Partition Manager, Partition Magic, SD Card formatter, magldr SD clear etc). But i can't see my SD Card plugged in.
Today i installed again WP7 on my HD2 with another SD card and it works. I put it in Windows, and i see the 200MB partition an i can format this to its whole space.
So what happened with my 32GB card, and how can i format it back, that it will work
edit:
i also followed these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913144
but my sd card is not getting recognized

I had the same thing; where the card isn't recognised by anything so therefore can't be formatted to a blank state.
The solution for me was hard resetting the phone (Volume buttons while WPH is booting from MaGLDR) with the sdcard inserted which makes the system recapture it.
That should render the card usable again, but FMI which ROM where you running initially? My problem (and solution) came from Xboxmod's BBTF Rom.

edit:
@HypoTurtle
now i'm using the HD2O© v2.00b5 Tango Rom. This seems good. If i will have issues i will try the Pdaimatejam Rom Wp7.5 Tango rom. yout method did not work, but thx anyway
@gregory90
the cab method worked fine
i got my 32gb card back *jibbieh*

Use the disk utility in mac osx, and restore the card to 1 partition, and FAT format.

What you need to do is to flash Yuki/XBmod v2.1. Don't need to update any further...can use base 7004. Install StorageLock.cab from XBmod's thread. Unlock the SD card. Turn off phone...don't reboot...remove SD card. The SD card is now accessible to repartition
