Hey guys so I tried installing Icecream Tosti's ICS rom v0.6 but it after booting up I saw that the previous version (o.5) was still on the the phone and all my settings and stuff were still there. I had done a fresh install and was confused. So I tried again but it didn't work and when I tried formatting my sd card it wouldn't let me.
I have tried many different tools: Mini tool partition manager, easeus partition manager, hp sd card utility, panasonic sd card formatter, and windows disk management but I kept on getting the errors, can't format. I plugged in the sd card into the computer via a sd card reader and a usb sd reader and even tried different computers but the same error popped up.
Just recently I booted into the rom and plugged in the phone through the usb cable. When I formatted using some of the tools above it showed me the format process was completed, but when I unplugged the phone and rebooted the phone the sd card reverted back to its original state and the sd card was not erased.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix it? or is my sd card completely gone. I feel like it is just locked and write protected but I don't know how to unlock it since there is no switch on the side. I will really appreciate. Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, i have encountered with one problem, after formatting my sd card from my macbook using Fat format, now when it was done, when i eject my memcard from PC it refreshes and the error came like sd card blank or has an unsupported format, i have tried formatting sd card from that popup but no response i have also used sd formatter from the market still no benefit.
Can you try another SD card?
have you tried formatting the card in your DHD?
What kind of SD card are you formatting? Model/size etc. Can you use it with your computer? Have you tried formatting it with your phone, Settings > SD & phone storage, unmount then format.
Hey thanks for everyone kind attention, i am using 8gb card, actually i have corrupted my card during formatting from my PC, and i have tried formatting from my cell phone but it didn't solve the problem accept ok popup and error again, what i did to resolve this issue is to put my sd card into my another phone which is BB, as i even can't connect it from my MAC, and formatted my sd card from BB than i put that card again into my HTC DHD and now it is working perfectly fine. =)
yea. THANK YOU SO MUCH
hello, so after recently using WP7, I've found myself unable to use my SD Card
Windows doesn't recognize it (That sd card formatting tool that's in several stickies, DISKPART, device manager, etc.) (I've also used 2 MicroSD -> SD Card adapters in an attempt to fix)
my phone doesn't recognize it (WP7 will use it) (Magldr says it clears the MBR, and I've reinstalled WP7 in an attempt to use the sd formatting tool, but no avail, and CWM fails to recognize it)
I've also installed busy box on my phone and tried to fdisk it, I plugged a 1GB microsd card I have into the phone while in android, used 'mount' got the /dev/ location of the sdcard (/dev/block/void/179:1) and swapped cards, but it won't open the stock 16GB
any ideas XDA?

I had this Problem one time too. My Solution was to put the 16GB Mirco-SD Card inside the SD-Adapter. After that i plug this SD-Card inside my Digital-Camera ( Powershot G7 ) and make a "Deep Format". After that, everything works fine...
Maybe this helps!
Happy Christmas,
Michael
Thanks for the tip, I've tried it on one camera but it was a rather crappy one and it just froze the camera o.o
going to try with my nicer camera when I get home
--edit--
eek. tried it on a PowerShot Aesomething and it jsut said memory card error and greyed out the format button, might be time for a new card, oh well, I could go for a higher class on android since it lags my apps a bit
Hi. I was directed to this website, because I had a problem with my HTC HD2, regarding the SD Card. I had Android installed on my sd and was booted on it. I selecting the Unmount SD Card > Erase SD Card data while booted to Android. After I restarted my phone, (it was now switched to windows 6.5) It is no longer detecting my SD Card at all. I tried reseting to factory settings but that didnt work. It is a 2 gb SD card. i dont care about the files in it, I was want it to detect the SD card with all its storage space. Any help would be greatly appreciated. =)

Take the card out, put it in a card reader, card reader goes in the PC and format to FAT32. It should work then. If it still doesn't, you could try software from this site:
http://www.partitionwizard.com/
It's a partitioning software. You can check the health of the card, it could be that it's just dead. You can probably get a new 8GB microSD for around $6.
Good luck!
Did you try changing it?
So about a week ago I downloaded new version of icecream tosti's ICS rom (v0.6) and booted into CWM to mount my sd card and move the zip file over. I noticed that it was taking longer time to move the file than it usually does but I let the process finish. I unmounted the card and went to install the zip from sd card but couldn't find it. I tried to move the file again and again but couldn't get it to copy the file onto the sd card. I tried moving files from the sd card onto the computer but that was not possible either. It wouldn't show me errors and complete the moving process but it actually didn't move anything. I thought there was something wrong with the sd card so I tried formatting it... no success!
I have used easues partition manager, mini tool partition manager, hp sd card utility, panasoic sd card formatter, tried formatting it through windows native options, used disk management, even tried formatting it through CWM but i kept on getting the same error, can't format. I was placing the micro sd card in a usb card reader and sd card reader in order to format it through computer. I have also tried using different computers but that didn't solve the issue. The problem is that every time I try to install a rom it reverts back to an older revision of the rom with old settings that I set before. It seems to me some how the sd card is locked in a previous state and it is write protected and won't let me format it.
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can solve my problem or does this mean the sd card is gone and I have to buy a new one?
I have exactly the same problem after using NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.3-CM9 V1.3. It seems this sd card was frozen, nothing on it can be changed. If I copy a file to it on computer, it shows copy successful, but that file cannot be read, and if refresh it shows nothing have changed in the SD card.
Anyone have any idea about this?
I have three broken micro sd cards now, two from WP7 and this one from ICS.

I waited a couple of weeks for someone to answer on this forum and tried all methods possible to format the sd card or revive it somehow but no luck so just recently purchased a new sandisk class 4 sd card hopefully this one doesn't go bad either. I just wish I knew why it was happening so I don't repeat the process again and end up damaging the card.
Have you tried to format with MAGLDR and after it on windows 7 pc ?
I did that, also followed this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1283232
Contents on this sd card just refuse to change.
is there a solution to this coz im having the same problem and cant find a way to fix this
you can do it by this software's :
HDD Low Level Format Tool
MiniTool Partition Wizard
EASEUS Partition Master
Partition Wizard Home Edition
.

.
but i dont know how create swap and ext4 partitions on sd .
This happen because you formatted the card on the phone. I never recommend to format on the phone the cards but on PC. Try the application I posted on computer with FAT32 in 32768 unit size.
I have a samsung 256GB Evo card, and i just installed a new rom this rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-natf-1-00-test-5-debloated-stock-t3509750
So i seen the little sd icon and i tap on it and it said my sd card is corrupted and needs to be formated. so i put into my computer and copied all the data before i wiped. I formated the SD on windows for extfat and put the card into my v20 and boot it up and i got the same error message. so i went ahead and formatted it using the phone. Plugged the card back into my computer and it shows it was formatted in fat32 format. which is strange. anyway i reformatted it again in windows and put the card back in the phone and got the same thing.
Anyone using this card or phone can verify if your v20 formats the card in fat32 format and let me know. if not anyway to fix it?
