[Q] SD card problem after installing Energy android rom - HD2 General

I have updated HD2 from Energy Windows Mobile 6.5 to Energy Android 3.5.
While installing the new OS I noticed that my SD card wasn't working right. After installing aMAGLRD 1.13 and using it to copy necessary ZIP file that it took me a few times to correctly to coppy the file on SD.
After installing my Android OS and the nrunning it I noticed that I am being displayed an error saying "Damaged SD Card".
Now, I thought to just format the SD card by using the Mass Storage Device which should be visible from Choos a connection type but I only see Charge Only, HTC Sync, USB Tethering, and Internet pass-throught. No Mass storage device.
Anyway, how else I could fix my SD card or how to get the Mass Storage Card option?

I can not make any promises but you can boot into MAGLDR and then choose opt ion number 4 of the main menu. This is the USB Mass Storage option in MAGLDR, but know this do this at your own risk as this option in MAGLDR works for transfering files but is slower than the in ROM USB Mass Storage option, and the connection is not a stable connection.
Your other option is to get you a micro SD cars adaptor or reader that you can plug into your computer via USB. I actually recommend you do this as you probably need to do a low level format and I do not suggest you use your phones micro SD card reader to do this.

This is probably too long but, I have used the Mass Storage thing from MDR.. idk... and I have copied and installed my android 4 OS. It seems nice, but the problem is when I launch android.
The 16gb card with adapter isnt supported by my card reader as it seems eather.
So I bought a new card for 15 some dollars and I'm happy now.
But what could cause my SD problem?

[Q] Security SD problem

I think WP7 sort of damage my sd card, in fact is not completely damage, it works on android and on my digital cameras even on a blackberry, also in the sd slot on my laptop, but does not work as a usb device with a card reader, or with the phone in android with massive device on magldr usb storage option. I tried on the laptop, on an xbox 360 on my tv that also have usb port and doesn’t work,
I tried to format, delete partitions, reformat in the camera and in the SD slot, tried with easeus and paragon pm, even with the sd formatter from Panasonic 2.0 and 3.0.
Only works on a “certify SD device ” if this thing exist like phones camera or a dedicated SD reader.
What I did was turn off the phone in WP7 and in MAGLDR I chooses to work as a usb storage (at this time it worked) and with easeus I delete the partitions and create 2 new partition one fat 32 and the other ext2 (wanted to install android on the SD). The problem was that I boot again and let WP7 to boot without doing a hard resert, an since then the SD card have thios strange behavior.
I think that WP7 activate the security of the SD card and for that reason does not work as a usb mass device any more.
If any of you have any advice that can help me recover the normal use of my card I will certainly appreciate it.
I create a new thread because I think that is different than the way to format the card to flash android and wanted to warning you all… but if you think that is the same please close it

USB Mass Storage is not working after dual boot wp7 and android

USB Mass Storage is not working after dual boot wp7 and android when i am booting android 'Cope's SD HD2 Gingerbread'.
i have used this method to partition sd card to run wp7 and android from same sd card
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-cUdB4_5f4.
There is no problems during using wp7 but the USB Mass Storage is not worked during using android. HD2 can't read the SD card. the SD card is unavailable.
Can it be solved??? Anyone can help me??
Since you're running Android from your SD card, this shouldn't really come as a surprise. Some SD ROMs have semi-USB mass storage, but still this often doesn't work as desired. I advise to either use WiFi file transferring, or booting WP7 when USB storage is required.
it is able to find data in sd card by using file manager but the gallery is not worked. It can't show the video and picture which are placed in sd card .
It may be because the SD card is partitioned, as you mentioned. I never had a problem connecting to the phone as a USB drive when I used SD cards.
It may also be a faulty build. With it being a gingerbread build, I think it may be that as I couldn't connect USB mass storage using gingerbread, and that was a NAND build!
Do you have another SD card you could try the same build with?
Okay, that's another story. Mass USB storage refers to using your computer to transfer files on your SD card.
It really seems like something went wrong with the partitioning, you probably made a mistake somewhere in the process (or the video is wrong, in which case there would be a lot of complaints, check that first). Format your SD card and try again!
Edit: John, he's not really referring to USB mass storage. Android just can't mount his SD card, which probably means the partitioning (which is different on WP7) is f*ed up?
This problem and the solution is stated many times in the sticky thread about partitioning the sd card in the sd dev section. You have to use minitool partition manager and change the wp7 partition from logical to primary. That will solve the problem of android not mounting the sd card. Takes about 2 minute. I'll even attach minitool for you.
thanks a lot . i will try it . thank you

SD cards not recognized on my new HD2

Hi everyone
Bought my HD2 a couople of weeks ago. Since I recieved I have not been able to mount my sd cards. I have 2 8gb adata ones both class 6 and one 8gb bought from **** smith electronics (a class 4).
I have tried formatting with SDformatter from the sd association and with EASEUS partition master. Both don't seem to have any effect on my hd2 mounting the cards.
The funny thing is though when I use magdlr and use the usb mass storage function with the sd card in, on my pc it recognizes the mass storage and I can copy files to the sd card and then put the sd card in a card reader and the files are there.
I have tried mounting the sd card in a couple of nand android builds and the official windows 6.5 rom for LEO but to no avail. Phone still does not recognize sd card.
Any help or ideas on what I can do? Really want to have wp7 with 720p video recording
I'm sure you know this but on the cm7 builds I use when you connect USB you have to jump to pull down notification screen, tap USB connected and then tap "turn on USB storage " before it shows up to your PC.
have you installed automount from the market?
Yes I did try automount but that didn't work. I am just hoping that it is not a hardware fault. But the usb mass storage feature in magdlr worked for copying files to the sd card

be alittle carefull with the magldr mount, it doesnt handle larger files well apparently. cwm has a mount option that works well.
I am having this kind of problem too and bought a card from austrailia. problem is my HD 2 reads my 2 gb card but when i pop a 16 gb , it freezes. On my pc however it reads the card and i can store data
Formatted the thing and no effect. would love some advice as well. It is a class 2

[Q] reboots everytime to windows

i have got HTC HD2 with android v 2.2.1.. every time i transfer a file on the SD card via usb, the phone does not recognize the file. i tried doing the same in windows 6.5 and it works.
Secondly, every time my phone restarts, it boots windows 6.5 whereas i have android installed. how do i fix these issues???
It sounds like you are using a Service card Android build. When you reboot your HD2 from a SD card build it is suppose to boot back into Windows Mobile cause that is what is in the actual internal memory of the phone, which the internal memory is what the SOL of the bootloader is programmed to boot up. To have Android boot up from SD card on it's own house need to install a dual boot app, just Google "Dual Boot Apple for Windows Mobile" or go the the HD2 Windows Mobile themes and apparently forum and do a search there.
If I am not mistaken to have been your SD card work properly as a mass storage device when connected to a computer you have to have USB. Debugging on. To do this while in Android go to Settings>Applications>Development and check USB Debugging.
If you're using an SD build it's known that SD builds restart to WinMo, you shouldv'e read it somewhere by now.
Files transfered to the Card on android are not recognised unless you restart the phone or transfer them when you're on WinMo, also transferring the files to an SD android version using diskdrive mode means you're risking braking the build or corrupting your SD card, it can be fixed with either scanning your card for system file errors or formatting it in worst case scenario..
anyway, the safest way to transfer files to SD while plugging your SD android over the USB is by using the Dual Mount SD app, the speed is a bit decreased, but the device will recognize them when you unplug it.

MAGLDR USB Mass Storage Damaged SD Card

I understand that MAGLDR's USB Mass Storage isn't most people's first choice, and that it can be flaky at times, but I've used it without problems in the past.
However, the last time I used it, installing drivers took an abnormally long time, and I just canceled USB Mass Storage and went back to the menu. However after that, the SD Card is complete unrecognized in the phone, and when using an adapter plugged in to the computer directly, it tells me the SD Card cannot start.
It looks like the controller on the card is damaged. I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of this occurrence. I honestly think it's more likely that the controller breaking was the cause, not the effect. Perhaps that's why it was taking so long to install drivers?
damaged/faulty SD Card readers do happen, have you tries to delete the partitions and reformating the SD Card.
I have lost 2 cards with my HD2 and am currently on the 3rd, I have no explanation but thats the wat it is
