dear all, i already have xperia x8 rooted and installed app2sd with 2 gb default memory card from SE, right now want to change the memory card with 4 Gb Transcend Micro SDHC class 2.
i following procedure to replace the card, include to make partition (3 Gb fat32, and ext2 for rest size), but when i switch on the phone it's freeze at display Sony Erricson, .... anyone can help me to solve the problem.

Does it also freeze on the old SD card and when you boot it without SD card in slot?

Does it also freeze on the old SD card and when you boot it without SD card in slot?
It freeze when i boot without SD card i slot and when i boot with new SD card.

So... if you have xRecovery and you can boot into it - restore the system. If you don't have one - use flashtool or SEUS with repair function. It's a damaged system, and I hardly believe it's because you put another SD card in your device...

Also you can try to format SD card once more on your PC.

tx all.. ..
problem solved !!, i insert new sd flashing the phone with flashtool with X8 generic firmware .. and everything goes to zero again ...
tx for your comment ;p

SD Card mounting problem

I have the sd card which came with the phone.
There was a virus in there.
I removed the virus and formatted the card.
Now the phone recognizes the card.I can transfer files via bluetooth.
But i am not able to connect it to the computer.when i tap mount,it says sd card mounted but it doesn't show up in the computer.
I tried mounting it wid my bro's galaxy s2 and it mounted........plz someone help me.......
PS: I AM ON STOCK ROM

Have you formatted sd by your phone or pc? Format by device is correct one I guess for this matter.

[Q] Rooting without internal SD

Hi,
I got a Galaxy Y from a friend and I was trying to MOD it. I discovered that the internal SD is not available... and no way to get it back. I tried to wipe data, hard reset, stock firmware upload with ODIN but no way to get the internal SD back. I tried ADB in order to try to push the ZIP files in a ROM folder but of course no permissions as it's not rooted.
So, no way to root my mobile without copying the files to the SD?
Thanks in advance
Joe

I dont know what you mean by internal sd - galaxy y 5360/6102 doesnt have internal sd - it uses a mico sd card to which you will find the slot if you take the cover off and look on the right hand side of the phone
place any files you want on the sd card either via card reader or usb cable
please note that questions should be asked in the question and answer section and NOT the general section

Thanks Marcus,
I did not know the mobile had no internal SD.
That's the kind of information that saves a lots of time and work!
Thanks again.
Joe

Ok,
I tried to use a Miscro SD on the GT-S5360 but there was no way to have it acccepted by the phone.
I formatted the Micro SD (Sandisk 2G) in many ways (full formatting) and it was mounted OK with all my other phones (Galaxy S, LG L5II, Huawei) but not for the Galaxy Y. I tried to format the card with the other Samsung too but it did not work..
I've read a lot around about the "blank SD" issue on many mobiles and tried some of the suggested tricks but with no luck.
So, assuming there is no way to have a MicroSD installed on the phone, I resume the original question:
- Is there any way to root the GT-S5630 without an SD card?
Thanks in advance
Joe

well unless your sd card slot is damaged there should be no reason why it shouldnt work
the sd card needs to be formatted in fat32
there best way to do it is to inset your sd card into your phone
goto phone settings
storage
unmount sd card (sd must be unmounted before you can format it)
format sd card
you can also format it via your pc using a card reader as long as its fat32 but its best to format it using the phone or format it again using the phone as sometimes cwm may have problems mounting the sd card if you use something else to format it
You might find universal root tools via google but the quickest most simple way is just to use a root zip file and flash it in recovery or cwm

Thanks Marcus, your replies are very quick .
I tried formatting the SD card FAT32 with different Allocation unit sizes, always full formatting, never quick.
The SD card is recognized as BLANK SD CARD (or unsupported filesystem) when inserted with the phone ON. The same occurs when I switch ON the phone with the SD card alredy inserted. The card is never mounted
The internal formatting functionality of the phone seems to be not working at all. The function FORMAT SD CARD is enabled but when launched it lasts just few seconds and nothing happens (the card is not mounted neither automatically nor by hand).
There could be some compatibility issues between the card and the phone and it could be worth to buy another SD to test the phone card reader again, but I'm not confident it will work.

allocation unit size is I think 16 kilobytes but just select default - quick format is fine if the card is not damaged
you can try using mini tool to delete the partition on the sd card and create a new one and format it to fat32
you can then try reformatting it on your phone after
Mini Tool Download

Thanks for your help Marcus,
I tried MiniTool, with both FAT and FAT32 (the card is a 2GB card) but the result is still the same: BLANK SD CARD.
I will try to buy a new one tomorrow and see if it makes any difference...
Thanks again
Joe

Ok I got a new MicroSD today and everything seems to work fine.
Thanks again Marcus.

Decrypt SD card via PC or OTG USB

Hi, I am facing a fairly confusing problem. I decrypted my SD card on my Samsung galaxy A5 (2017), when I switched to Pocophone I removed SD card without decrypting it. I performed a hard rest on samsung A5 and also my sim card tray broke inside and while retrieving the sim I damaged sd card slot, now it won't detect SD card anymore. I haven't formatted SD card till now it has all the files but unreadable. I still have my Samsung phone with me. Is there a way to decrypt SD card via attaching USB OTG card reader, or via Samsung PC service??
