I'm looking to get rid of this phone with android on it, but keep my sd cars. I used the magldr and clockworkmod. Well I be able to take my sd out, factory reset(from magldr i assume) and give the person a working android hd2? Or would I need to put another sd card in and start over?

Just format it as FAT32, use something along the lines of Panasonic SD formatter

I have liberated aria, app2sd (cooked into liberated r12), and my sd card reports as damaged. I've resigned myself to format this card, but it keeps reporting as damaged whether I format using Android or Clockwork. Don't have a PC available to format, and have not yet tried removing the ext partition. (Didn't want to lose all my apps.)
Anyone have any thoughts?

I had the same scare with a new SD card also. After I formatted using a pc, it was ok.

I figured I'd have to plug it into a PC. I guess I'll do that when I get home Monday.
Thanx for the help.

When I put it in a card reader, it was slow as heck to read and format the card, but format it did.
It also left my ext partition intact.

I want to switch to a 16gb sd card and i copied everything i have in my old one to the new but it never passes the logo screen. What are the steps necessary to do this successfully?

I do not really have an answer to your question, but I did discover something cool about stock FroYo.
I had moved a bunch of apps to the SD card (via the official way) and was somewhat concerned about installing a larger SD card as I was unsure if my apps would copy over properly or more importantly be recognized as being present on the SD card at all.
I copied all DATA from my old SD card to my new SD card and booted up the device, at first none of my moved apps appeared to be installed, but after about 3 or 4 minuets all my previous installed apps populated in the launcher.
Color me impressed,

Im using a miui rom and i copied everything to the new sd and then when i turn on the phone i can see the miui logo but then it geys stuck there...
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
i think its because some of miuis stock applications are installed onto the sd card. try making an ext partiton and then reflashing the same version of miui you have without wiping and it should boot up fine again without losing all your data
That should not be an issue unless you are using official stock OS or you have previously forced moving system apps to sd...

You keep saying you copied everything over. That's probably not true. Check to make sure all the hidden files were copied over too, and that any extra partitions have been created and copied over too.
If you're using an ext partition, your pc probably won't see or copy it...

Ok so how do i partion. can someone explain that to me. Thanks
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
You would've had to set up the ext partition yourself, so if you don't know how to do it, I'm guessing you don't have an ext partition...

Yep i guess i dont.... well i'll find someone to do it for me

You partition you sd card in the recovery, there's an option for that.

Easiest way to partition an sd card with ext and fat flavors is via Linux... grab your favorite usb bootable linux (like ubuntu or mint) if you're not already made the switch, boot your notebook via usb, stick your sd card and partition as you like it...

So I've tried searching to the answer of this question for a couple days now, with no luck. I am currently running ANDROID 2.2 via NAND on my HTC HD2 with a 16GB SD Card. With that said I was wondering if there is any possible way to also boot another build of ANDROID via my SD CARD though MAGLDR?
I like having the stability of having the certain ROM i have now on my NAND, but I would like to try out other ROMS and just run them off the SD CARD. I tried partitioning the SD card with no luck. I try to boot the ROM on my SD CARD through MAGLDR but after a while it just reboots into my NAND ANDROID ROM.
Does anybody know how I can run ANDROID via NAND and another ANDROID build via SD CARD???
I believe I've seen this asked before and the answer was no its not possible. I'm really not 100% sure but I'm rather curious now. I will try to find the thread I seen the post in & report back.

An easy run around would be to keep the roms you like most on your sd card & just flash them when you want a change. I keep 3 on my sd card for just that reason.

Ive heard a lot of people running multiple android version with magldr..one on nand, the other ons are sd builds.
You can also have wp7 on nand and run a android sd build from sd.
Never tried a sd build on magldr, so cant say how to do that - using clk and the sd boot is just in comming -, just read some stickies with tutorials yourself...but its to 100% possible

i use a nand android (sense eclipse) and two sd builds (american android and 3 dak's miui rom). if you look at sd android thread you can easily find sd builds supporting mgldr.to do that partitioning of sd is not necessary. the only trouble may be about sd-ext,since some applications may transpass from one rom to the other via sd-ext. so if you can disable using sd-ext for sd-roms you'll have no problem.
Running cm 7 full emmc. Everything works fine till I reboot and my SD card wont mount without formatting. Its a sandisk 16gig not sure if size is the problem or I messed up the rooting. So used to adb rooting on phones this was a weird for me.

Did you format the card in Windows? Sandisk 16Gb are good cards. Used them myself. Pull the card and format with this on your desktop.
If you rooted via ADB you changed files (and installed SU) on the eMMC so the uSD should be OK.
I formatted in the NC it sees it and works fine till reboot only problem is I like to backup roms with clock word and it erases backups if I when I do it.

When u reboot does it take u to cwm clock work mod? If so...turn off the nook then take out the card, turn it on without the card and when its at the home screen pop it back in. Im going to buy another SD card because of this reason but not sure how to format it
HTC Wildfire S (VM) "s-off" "rooted" Stock Rom
Just format it in a card reader with Windows.
What's in the content of the uSD and what do you try to do with it?
1. Intention to use it as pure personal stuff?
2. Intention to use it as flashable CwMR card?
If 1., just reformat the uSD. Using Windows is fine. MiniTool Wizard is OK.
If 2., suggest to recreate. With it, you can make a Nandroid backup as well as using it to install/update ROMs/Gapps
It's has really been the pain in the arse. Really.
I use Lord's Ice Cold Sandwich. This happens occasionally, when I tried to download SD data for a game, the SD card remounts as being read-only.
I tried full-wipe flash, format SD card with Disk Utility of Ubuntu, then reflash it with Android's utility. I tried unmounting sdcard in CWM. I tried fix permission option in CWM. Nothing helps so far.
Thanks in advance!!! :angel:
There's an app on the Play Shop which claims to fix this, give it a try

Would be nice if you can post the name of the app too, I can't find it.

I guess the problem lies in permission thingy. Flash this zip file in here works: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458021
Gud luck!
i think your card is getting faulty ......
back up all data and then go for any experiments ....

I actually tried that. The other day I backed up stuff than formatted the thing with Disk Utility tool of Ubuntu. I then went extreme, formatted it again on Android.
I guess the app above might help. The thing is I'm still under 18 for a credit card, hence gotta wait another year to be eligible.... mannnnn
Apparently, the SD card is still in R/W mode, it isn't til I start download data for games, download music, use dolphin... that it becomes read only. The process usually goes for half the bar, than stop.

Should I repartition the SD card with swap storage and ext4 and stuff?

Just format the card with 4ext then reflash rom.
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Are you able to flash your SD card? If you are having the same files after the formatting which you had then I don't think anything will work rather than replacing your SD card
