Hello friends
I have a Gene in which i am using a 2 GB mini-MMC card.
Once in 2-3 days my gene loses the data on the card and shows some strange charecters with 1 GB or 2 GB size.Usually multiple folders with such strange characters are found.When i soft reset the card is shown normally.But after 2-3 months even softreset does not work.Then i have to format my card and start from scratch.3 times i have done hard reset but without any effect.I am not using any cracked software.I removed all third party software but still the same thing continues.
So i need your advice as
1. I cannot send the phone to repair as the nearest service center is 1000 km away.
2. I am not able to try another card as my mini-mmc is stuck inside the Gene( Damn the person who conceived this idea of putting the storage card space in an inaccesible position )
Please my dear friends. Any tidbit of idea can save my phone
partition
I read somewhere that partitioning will resolve the issue but I just couldn't get to do it. There are guides everywhere to tweak the registry to fool the OS into thinking that your storage card is not a removable drive and then partitioning it, but I just can't get to do it. It shows me a drive with only 52mb space!?!
Anyways, this is a gene issue and we need to get it resolved. If anyone out there knows anything about it, please help.
Card partition
Now you can create partition on your storage card by your device
Check PPClink software card studio
even with trial version you can do all these things
Atlast found the cause of card corruption
Brothers
After successfully experimenting with somany options atlast i have found the answer for the card corruption.
IT WAS DUE TO MERRIAM WEBSTER( SLOVOED ) DICTIONARY WHICH I HAVE USED FREQUENTLY-BOTH UNABRIDGED&MEDICAL.
I have removed them 1 week back and nomore card corruption since then.
So there is an issue with slovoed and WM5 ppc.
If anyother members having similar problem try this option.
So I originally asked this in Amon_RA's recovery thread, but was kindly asked to move it here. So here's my issue.
My G1 is not recognizing or creating any ext partitions using either the manual parted method or the automatic script include in Amons recovery. Using the manual method to make ext2 I get the following error:
Error: Input/output error during write on /dev/block/mmcblk0
Retry/Ignore/Cancel
Fat32 gets created fine.
I used fdisk on my laptop to create the partitions and it seems to take, but once I put the sd card back into my phone it disappears. Taking the card out of my phone and back in my laptop, the ext and swap partitions are gone. Anyone have any idea as to what the problem could be, or is my card just pretty much bricked?

I've been pulling my hair out for the last day trying to figure out why it would act like it partitioned fine, but then when I did a 'print' in parted it would only show one FAT32 partition. I had the EXACT problem the OP was having.
Half my day spent looking for some other resolution and then realized I had another SD card with me (just half the size) and tried it in the Recovery with that one with complete success. No errors or anything. I'm trying Paragon Partition Manager for my larger card, but not finding an option for the ext2 (or other UNIX) formats. It's the free 2010 version so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
Bad SD Card - Paragon Killing USB Drivers?

So, version 9.0 has the options for the needed Linux partitions. With that, it would appear I have a bum 8GB card. As stated, the 4GB works just fine - both Transcend Class 6 cards. On one PC it was having a difficult time in the formatting process after creating the partition and I had to kill the application via task manager in Windows. Then it got to where my USB port drivers couldn't start so I couldn't read via SD card adapter or USB cable to the phone with the card mounted. I'm in IT so I've dealt with drivers failing before, but I'm finding myself having to ask my friend Google now as even after uninstalling the drivers I have the same result. I'm afraid it might be due to the Paragon application. More on that below.
I installed Paragon on another laptop at home and it went through the process successfully (at least appeared to) with the 8GB card. Joy had returned to my frustrated being and I proceeded to use the restore image to upgrade from ext2 to ext3 - success! - Then it was wipe and flash. All seemed well in the world until I went into the settings after getting into the OS for the first time (again) to look at my secondary SD Card space and found it at "unknown." Looking at the card via Paragon Partition Manager once again it was showing as only two partitions instead of three with the ext3(2) being "unformatted." Just to be sure, I put in the 4GB card to verify in Paragon it's showing as expected (three partitions in correct formats).
Being the stubborn sod I am, I came to work determined to get the 8GB card working and installed Paragon on a test machine (I run a large testing lab) and redid the partitions. Removing and re-adding the partitions on the 8GB with "success" then simply unmounting and mounting the card to the PC revealed the card is definitely the major flaw all along. After mounting it came up as just the two partitions again - FAT32 and unformatted for the 2nd, even though it was only 10 seconds ago it showed successful creation of the three and formatting. Because I'm one to verify a verification I repeated my steps to see the same result. However, not only did I see this same result I now DIDN'T see the SDCard via Explorer, but could via Paragon. Inspection of Device Manager showed the exact same thing as on my home laptop that stopped being able to read the Android phone with card or adapter with card.
So, my last couple days of fighting and frustration were all because of the SD card of which I've never had a problem with it storing data for the last year with many times reformatting and re-applying data. Odd, to say the least. I am back up and running, but now I have USB drivers failing to start problem on two PC's! This is not a concern with the one at work since I'll just restage it, but I'm afraid it might take restaging my laptop for this to be fixed which as we all know is just not very convenient.
Anyhow, the lengthy explanation was more for those like me that were Googling/searching for a long time for a similar situation.
Cheers.
I have a similar problem. One of my SD cards of 1 GB has ext 2 and 3. But the main one of 2 GB can be partitioned only with ext 2. I am using Amon Recovery 1.5.2. When I press create ext 3 I get an error and not even from console it doesn't work, I get upgrade_fs not found.

I would say it IS the same problem and that your card is not being partitioned properly. The reason it can't upgrade from ext2 to ext3 is because there isn't ext2 to begin with even though the partition process gave a "success" result in the Recovery. I'm using the same Amon 1.5.2 as well. It somehow will not format as the space will be there unformatted if you open the card in a partition application with GUI.
Going to the SD Card settings from within the OS you'll see the SD Card secondary use grayed out and showing "unknown."
So what is the solution? What if I buy a new card Class 6 that can't be partitioned?

I would say keep your receipt and return it for another. I've had issues with SD cards before where they kept going corrupt within a day of use and just returned them for another (same brand, same model) that would work fine.
It's not a hardware problem, I managed to partition it after some tries. I think that Amon RA recovery does not recognize the sd card sometimes. It worked after I hit the reboot button in recovery and pull out the battery. After that I went back to recovery and I could partition it.

bug a friend with a linux///mac machine and partition it with that. i've seen lots of problems with usb/partitioning on windows ,and never had the same problem on mac/linux. 3 microsd cards were 'unusable' according to vista, reeformated just fine with osx.
give it a shot.

You verified it worked with looking in the SD card and Phone storage settings?
I've also discovered that the 4GB card that I was able to partition without a problem was one I should've thrown out as I couldn't remember where it came from until after dealing a couple days of constant lockups on the phone (now that things are running off the SD). It was thrown in a drawer due to going corrupt every few days where the data on it was lost/gone/unreadable. Going out to get a new SD card today.
To the statement about bugging someone with a mac/linux, that doesn't appear to be the issue here since it won't work with using Gparted either (at least in my case).
Just an FYI update, that after buying a new (not the lowest end) SDHC class 6 8GB card, it partitioned just fine in the recovery image along with being able to upgrade the ext2 to ext3 then ext4. Now I'm finally seeing the speedy benefits running Cyanogen's latest ROM. No issues since replacing with a good card.
well been using the standerd 2gb sd card with my phone fine but upgraded toa 16gb card over the last 2 days...
soo i took the files of my old card using active sync
put the new card in the phone.. formatted it then transfered the new files.. gets to about 250mb then says... write protected please make sure the file is not in use bla bla.. sometimes it gets to 2gb but it always does it on a diffrent file and none of them are protected and the card shouldent be as its formatted and 16gb
can anybody help or does anybody think its a duff card?
any help would be much greatful!
Thank you
Sam Morgan
forgot to say the sd card quick fix is installed aswell
Don't use Activesync to copy the files - use Disk Mode.
tried using disk mode but still get the dodgey things of writing a certain amout.. not being able to delete some files.. even after i just put them on there... any way ive orderd a new class 6 16gb card from a data and hopefully should do the trick as i think this chinese crap is duff
your case sounds awfully familiar to those of the people who bought the "16gb usb pendrive" from chinese resellers, which were actually 1gb pendrives with modified onboard chips to make it appear as 16gb devices. The first GB you copied was fine, but whenever you tried to access data over that limit wyou would obviously get errors. In this case, if you bought a cheapo card from an "unkown" seller, he probably gave you a 256MB hacked microsd.
also worth making sure the card is formatted to fat 32,4096 block size for best results.
thanks for the replies guys...
samsamuel: i used the formatting tool on the phone
oh just tried formatting again it saud card is broken or damaged then tried againa and let me format it... must be broken then

Hello all, I need your help. I'm using dell Streak 5. The phone factory resets by itself, I know that the problem is bad internal SD card, I have some skills for opening phones, and replacing internal parts, so this is no problem for me, but still I need your help. I have several questions:
-Can I put micro SD 2GB or 4GB(I know this is maximum, do not want to edit system files tu accept bigger card) Class 4?....becorse I live in small country, I can't find SD card's with bigger class.
-Which class is the original internal SD card from 2GB?
-And the must imortant question, after replacing the new and formated(in FAT32 I thing) micro SD card need something special to do, or just need to do factory resset and wait for the phone to create partitions on the micro sd card? I am asking this question because my phone is running on latest official Froyo ROM 2.2.2. Is it necessary to instal custom rom, or I can be able to change the inner SD card running on official Froyo, with only factory resset? The data on internal sd card is not important to me, I do not need a back up, I just want my phone to accept the new card, becorse I spent 400 euros for my beloved phone. Thank you very much!
You need to search. This has been covered.
I will tell you that the internal sd card is not formatted fat32 as it is used in the phone.

Ok Thank you, I will replace my new internal sd card without formatting. I was searching everywhere and can't find someone that was replacing internal sd card on phone running on official 2.2.2 Froyo :S. I was found that on Streak with StreakDroid 1.9 Custom RoM is only necessary to do factory resset after replacing the new sd. I don't know if this procedure 'll work on my Streak with Official 2.2.2 ROM. So, can someone ansver me? Thanks .
Maybe Marvin02 or TheManii or someone more knowledgeable can step in but as long as you use a 2GB card, you'll be good with the stock ROM.
BUT this is the part Im not sure of, if you swap out for a 4GB card, then you do need to have installed StreakMod and StreakDroid, this is from personal experience. I changed mine out and had StreakDroid 1.9.0 installed. When I powered the phone up, it did all the work, I just had to wait.
Not sure if the same is true using a 4GB or larger card with stock ROM or any of the other custom ROMs

Hi, I've replaced my original internal 2GB microSD class 2 to 4GB class 10 without any problem (i think Dell Streak will accept any class).
* Download 'QDLTool3rd_20101022_GAUSB1A130500' and unzip to folder on desktop (google 'QDLTool3rd_20101022_GAUSB1A130500').
* Power Dell Streak on the first time with inserted 4GB internal microsd card and wait until auto format is done and display error message come on.
* Power off Dell Streak by remove the battery and re-insert it back after 5 seconds.
* Plug-in USB Data cable into your computer
* Press and hold the volume up button then insert Data cable into the Dell Streak.
* Goto your QDLTool3rd folder on your desktop and execute QDLTool.exe file and select RUN option (should you get driver error then Google search, install and start again).
* On completion your Dell streak will boot into android 2.2 with old Baseband.
From here you can update latest Baseband and flash Steven 1.9 or 1.91 or in my case Simple Streak 1.3 Beta4.
Should you require help PM me. Also check out my previous post for photo of my Dell streak with inserted 4GB microSD, working.

This mean that original internal sd card is only class2?.....I will change it with another 2GB Class 4 micro sd card. So I must run qdl tool?....is it possible to brick my Streak with this software? Thank you very much, if I need help I 'll PM you my friend. Thanks a lot.
This is the problem with not searching for and reading the existing threads on this topic. You are getting replies from just one or two people and not the benefit of previous longer discussions.
Here are some links:
Hardware Hacking the Streak – thread at MoDaCo, main focus is replacing the internal SD Card with a faster, larger card
How-to Increase streak storage up to 62 GB – an extension/continuation of the hardware hacking thread at MoDaCo
Changing Internal SD - thread here at XDA
While I have not done this replacement I would not recommend using the QDLTool as a first attempt.

Yes, the internal 2GB microSD is class 2 (mine is anyway). I can only tell you that I've ran QDLTool many times over and not yet does my Dell Streak Brick beyond repair (IMO, it's very hard to brick the Dell Streak unless it's hardware damaged). I've messed up my Dell Streak many times, including no power dead, no fast boot, no recovery and no response at all to any button being pressed, and so I though until I was able to recovered using QDLTool and fixed it every time.
FYi, I've removed 4GB microSD card from my Dell Streak and re-inserted the original 2GB microSd back and the Dell Streak boot up fine.
Please understand that this is my past experienced and results, in no way am I saying that the same result will be for your device.
I share my experience 2 days ago, I changed my internal microSD to a Kingston class 10 8GB card, the smallest I can find.
I did a full nandroid backup before removing anything.
Change the cards, power up and 2 partitions are automatically created, mounted at /cache and /data.
Boot to recovery and restored nandroid backup, all is well running Steve's rom 1.91.
I have a similar problem with my streak that I have just got, that it is stuck at the dell logo. When I try to run an update or factory reset it only goes half way through, and says error with e: cache.
I have done qdl but this doesn't work, tried different updates, roms etc with no success. I went onto the fastboot menu and did the engineering codes which seemed to imply a internal memory card fault.
So, my question is, if I replace the internal SD card, will this solve the problem?
I have searched various threads but cannot seem to see the correct solution.
Any help would be appreciated.

My friend be strong and take a leap of faith. Since there is no available answer to your problem and your Dell is not working anyway, why not replace your internal microSD and then follow the method in my previous post and see (start with a 2GB or 4GB first).

I think that if you replace the internal sd card it going to solve your problem. I'm still reading for this problem on Streak, and this seems to be a common problem for Streaks . Please find on google how to dissasamble your Streak is not hard, but be careful there is flax cable under tach panel! My Streak now is working fine after Factoruy ressets and clearing dalve catches on internal sd card.....so I do not know what to do now to change the card or not....

When you used qdl tool....are you sure you had the update.pkg and the matching bb ams file in the same folder as qdl....and the same update.pkg on your sd card.....and no other update.pkg or mbss bb in the folder/sd card except one set
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA Premium App
I am not an expert on the QDLTool but looking at the version that was available as 'repairtool' on StreakDroid there is no update.pkg in the zip file for that. I am no expert and have only used the versions of qdltool available from StreakDroid.
Also there is a thread in the dev section that indicates that the qdltool is married to a specific set of files unless you modify the code directly. This would mean to me that unless you make modifications to the code any files that did not come with the version of the tool you are using will not be used. Whether having additional files on the sd card or in the folder on your computer where qdltool resides will cause an issue I do not know.
im not an expert in the qdl either....but i remember when i first used it i had to download the update.pkg separetly and put it on sd card....i put a copy in the qdl folder along with the amss/bb file;this was back when the 305 rom came out,so from what i figuered,was the qdl tool is just pushing a factory restore...thats complete(not like just running a fr from streakdroid).....but it uses what ever update.pkg that you put on it.....it doesnt have a built in rom

Hi, did u fixed it? I faced with same issue. Im looking for solution, will let you know if i get some.
Even I have the same problem I called customer care and they told me to visit service centre. I also tried factory reset but no use
Same here. I tried format the SD card in a Mac and a PC, tried again with other cards, but I have the same (frustrating) result. The only thing I didn't try yet was restoring the device, and I don't know if is a good idea (seems didn't working for any other person with the same problem).

Hi did you get that resolved?
I am having the same problem. I was using my old MicroSD Card. After the update for Android 6.0.1 it appeared a message saying that the card was corrupted or something like that and i might need to format it. I try to do so and and error appeared while formatting it as Internal so i remove the SD card and restart the cellphone and tried to do it at least as External Storage but i got the same error. So i bought a brand new MicroSD Card Class 10 32 Gb and had the same issue. I did a hard reset and start over and i have the same outcome.
All my SD Cards that i tried to use got recognized on my friends cellphones. Moto G Turbo, Moto G 2nd i got a Moto X play. The difference between them and i is t hat i have Android 6.0.1 and they 6.0.
Does somebody found the solution to this issue? . Which version of Android do you have 6.0 or 6.0.1. Everything got screwed up after the update.
Additional Details:
1. After the error appears the SD card is not being read anymore even if i eject it and insert it again. So i erased the Media Storage Cache and External Extorage Cache, restart the cellphone and put back the SD card again and i got recognized with the message that i need to format it. I try too many time reproducing this issue and i always got the same frustrating result. The SD cards were formatted on Mac and PC and also other Motorola phones and Same ****.
2. Called Motorola Services Desk on USA and LATAM. One of them told me to restore the cellphone to brand new state. I did it and same ****.
3. Am so sad for this not much information available
The same issue is there in many custom ROMs as well. I feel it's got something to do with 6.0.1 rather than the sd card itself.

No. I just bought the Moto X play. I was working fine with an Old SD Card. After i upgrade to 6.0 to 6.0.1 the SD Card is not read anymore and showing errors while format it internal or externally. I bought a faster card class 10 and same error. The thing is my friends with no update can read my cards without problems using same cellphones.
My sd card went crazy too after 6.0.1 though after a few tries I did manage to save everything on it into my pc using the sd card adapter. Then I did the slow format in Windows and put it back into the phone. So far it seems working fine.

I will try on a pc...did that on osx with Parallels Desktop...no go!
I have had the same issue as some above. Went wrong two weeks ago when the latest OTA became available from Motorola. The moment the phone restarted I received a warning that the microSD was not formatted, which had been previously set up as internal storage. I am 100% certain that it was the upgrade to 6.0.1 that did this, and not anything physical. I've tried approx 20 different methods to try to format it, both in the now-rooted X Play and on my PC, and even when it appears to be successful it actually isn't. Windows 10's diskpart will show the partitions, whilst most will not. It's as if the card has somehow become write-protected. The 128gb card was not cheap, so if anyone has had the same issue and has a solution, please give any tips you can!
Hello any solution for this ?
I'm willing to try and flash the 6.0 stock. Reporting here asap!
I need a fix for thisssssss! SD Card is not garbage now is it?
no way
sorry guys, bad news! I downgraded to Stock Android 6.0, it didn't fix the problem.
will try with a brand new sdcard...to see if the mxp is somehow very picky...or more simply the sdcard reader is damaged
hi guys!
i have the same issue with new 64 Gb microsd card. did anyone get the decision?
