RUnning Zips Creamed Glacier 3.11, Clockworkmod recovery 5.0.2.0
Trying to mount a brand new micro SD card (16 gb), but when I try to do it in the ICS settings, it never mounts. WHen I try to mount it in Clockworkmod recovery, same error. Any ideas on this for me?
Could be a bad card. Have you tried a different one?

Tried it with the original card as well, same issue.
Is there any trash in the slot?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
Nope, slot is clean.
I'd flash a PD15IMG.zip. It rewrites everything. If its software related that should fix it.

Well I'll be a son of a doggone... I was finally able to format the new card on my win PC, and now my phone sees it. Still won't see the original tho.
Brute force and ignorance to the rescue!
THanks for your help!

Thank god. PD15IMG.zip is always a pain because it overwrites recovery.

I am running cm7 on my mt4g. I cleared the SD card of all data except clockwork 3, google apps zip file, and cm7 rom zip file. I also cleared the cache partition in the recovery mode. Now it wont load cm7 from the SD card it just stays on the "mytouch 4g screen". The only way i can get it boot up correctly is running the backup i made. What did I do wrong and how do I fix it?

Is clockwork already installed? Did you wipe data and cache in the recovery menu before flashing cm7?

I actually figured it out last night. I'm not quite for sure what happened (probably something stupid that I did) but the cm7 zip file on my zip card was damaged so when I replaced it with a fresh copy and reflashed it worked great.
Thanks for your willingness to help.

Mount your sd in recovery and copy another rom from your computer to the sd. Unmount. Wipe data/cache/davlik. Flash rom

If there was only a website where you could look up a rom, download it and copy it from your PC via an SD adapter...
Get a mirco-SD to SD adapter. Pretty much all computers have an SD card slot nowadays.
Go into recovery, hit usb-ms toggle, then copy the rom over.

Computer won't mount it...says it doesn't recognize it ugh...I downloaded usb drivers...trying to get them to work...it still says Android 1.0 in device manager...
I am using clockwork 2.5.0.1 probably why I don't see a usb mount option...

I don't use clockwork, but there is still a mount usb option. It should be USB toggle or something like that. Otherwise, like already suggested, use a card reader.

Try restarting your computer with USB connected. Same thing happened to me, my Inc suddenly rebooted and got stuck on boot screen. Pulling the battery and restarting my comp with USB connected did it for me.

THANKS EVERYONE!
Ok I am working on this mytouch it is stuck on the android skating and the SD card is completely blank. the Hboot is 0.86.0000
I want to put the correct files back on the sd card and the correct PD15IMG so that i can un-soft brick this phone i have no other info from the prior owner rooted or not ect.. ADVICE, LINKS, DOWNLOADS ???
Download the gingerbread PD15IMG.zip from here. Place it on the SD Card, boot into hboot, then let it do its thing! Press thanks if I helped
So question? Even if the Android File system is missing on the SD card this will re-build it?

I don't think the android system is on the SD . But yeah just flash and everything should be fine.

Invasion2 is correct. The "system" files are stored on the internal memory. Any folders/files missing from the sd card that weren't put there by you will be regenerated by android and apps you use.

I was in a boot loop after a failed install of a custom rom - did all the research - came to the conclusions that I had bad emmc - was getting the fail-pu errors when trying to flash the PD15IMG.zip. As a last ditch effort, found a thread that talked about SD format - yep found out it was an issue with my SD card format. I ended up putting another SD card in that worked in another phone (could also format a new card FAT32) and was able to finally get past this and get the stock (froyo) image on.
Yes but this is for a phone with custom recovery that is not the case here this is a stock phone with s on

I already tried re formatting to fat32 when i load the froyo image it loads it and skips the update to the mytouch 4g screen no failed pu message just with the gingerbread img.

Yeah dude you have a paperweight. I would just go to Tmo and ask for a replacement. Say it just shut off automatically or something. Sorry, hope I helped.
Final word
As I said I am working on this phone so I have to deliver the bad news. The person who owns the phone bought it used and was using it then updated and things went bad. Hope this thread helps someone. Thank you for the repsonse
I flashed one of the gb radios, following the instructions, and when i rebooted my phone its stuck at the splash screen. I would just try to put a different radio on the sd card and flash that through fastboot, since i cant get to recovery, but my computer wont pick up my sd card even on my wifes phone. Any ideas?
Will it boot without the card or with a different card?
Did you verify the md5 of the radio before you flashed it?
Got it working

When I booted into recovery I couldn't select recovery from fast boot since the radio file was still on the root of the sd card and my only two options were to update or reboot. I fixed it by putting my wife's sd card in my phone, booting to recovery, wiped cache and dalvik cache, put my sd card back in, booted back into recovery and flashed the radio file on my sd card through fast boot again. It seems the big mistake I made originally was just not wiping the caches before flashing the radio

Hi guys
I don't know what is happening with my tablet. I dropped it on the floor and after that quit working. I tried to flash a new rom as I am able to go into the recovery but installation hangs up at finding boot img step. Restore not working as well. Sometimes it says that it couldn't load the sd card or the ext sd card. Now it bots but it stays at android logo forever and eventually shuts down.
I dont have the CPUID handy so any method using it is out of discussion.
If you can come up with a solution would be really awesome. If not I guess I have to throw it in the garbage.
Thanks a million.

If you did a recovery backup, you should be able to find the UID number in the recovery folder on your EXT SD card.
Or perhaps you were not rooted with CWM installed?
More than likely, it could possibly be just corrupt data. First thing I would do, is check your EXT SD Card on your PC. Copy the contents to your PC, then format it FAT32. (always try to save the contents of it first)
Then, I would try running one of the update files. Copy it to SD Card, and try installing it. You may have to try a couple first. Here's a link with decrypted A500 ICS update files. Generally, we install these (rename the file to update.zip), by holding Vol+ and PWR till it starts installing the update. However, if you have the V8 Bootloader installed, then you need to try them through CWM. One of them should work usually.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31323893&postcount=8
Another method is to totally wipe the internal memory from your tablet. This can be done through CWM. When you do your wipes and formats before installing a custom rom, go to Mounts and Storage, and toggle Data/Media. Then when you do your wipes, it will wipe and format EVERYTHING, leaving bootloader and CWM.
also, I would pop the back cover off, and look for loose connections.
As with throwing in the garbage, there is a market for a500/501 parts.

Thanks a lot for the tips. Never thought of sticking the sd card into the pc. I did a backup so i should easily find the CPUID. I'll try to follow your steps and see what's going on.
Thank you.

Other things you can try, if you have Skrilax_CZ V8 bootloader, you can try booting to fastboot, and wipe data. Theres several commands to do this for the different partitions like data, system, cache, then try re-installing the custom rom you were using again.

It's version 7 actually.
