Hey guys, got a huge problem, I rooted my HTC Magic, it was working and all, but now (I'm using Fatality HERO) it doesn't startup, it gets stuck on the HERO screen. Even worse is my phone turned itself off after saying SD Card corrupted.... and now when I cm recovery, it doesn't recongise the damn SD card, I've tried the reset thing by holding home and back, I'm totally lost. HELP!

32a or 32b?
32B, although I seemed to have fixed it. I dug out the original 2GB MicroSD, put another Fatality ROM on it, and reflashed the ROM on, works now I'm wondering what to do with my 8GB mSD card though. Should I pop it back into my HTC a reformat it? Or will it kill the phone again?

I just use this thing.

Or the built in one in the RAv1.2.1 recovery rom.
Haha fixed that too Lolz!
ok so rather than realize that the sd card was the problem, you rebooted and wiped your phone. the first step you should have taken was to reformat the sd card. when you use the sd card to run apps there is a higher chance of corruption.
Nah, it said the SD was corrupt, wouldn't let me format, then my phone ran out of battery, which was Then my problem started because obv. it doesn't mount the SD card, and my backup image is on there. When I booted up, it got stuck on the HERO screen... blah blah..... Well, it's working now, although, now with a formatted SD, I don't have a backup of my original ROM, which is lame. I was lucky to have a spare SD, or I would have been done for!
MOD EDIT
Thread moved to general discussion as not rom related
The Fatal1ty ROM has a problem with SD cards, every time you mount via USB and then unmount, it tells you the card has corrupted. After you reboot your phone it comes back though. I would use one of the other Hero ROMs instead.
ur ans

Tried posting in general and no helpful replies so im going to try here.
original post - hi there. i bought a new class 6 8gb Micro sd card about a week ago.
When my phone was using the class 2 card my phone with an installed rom and was working perfectly. In the following sequence, i started using my new card. formatted the card to FAT32 and then booted into fastboot and formatted it into fat32-ex2-linux. reboot my phone with the new card in still and all it does is loop over and over.
i put my old sd card back in and the phone boots right away. is ther anywhere in the sequence which tells you guys im going wrong and if so can someone please advise me on which way to go?
thank you very much
edit - did a data wipe and fresh install with the class 6 sd card and it does the same again. looping over and over on the boot screen. will be going back to the class 2 for now
for your info this phone is a voda magic. 32b. cheers
Update -
quick update on the situation. Wiped the card, reformatted all with new partitions and success! it booted with new rom etc.
after around an hour my phone had turned itself off. only way to turn it back on was to pull the battery and then power on. after around the same amount of time the phone did the same.
i pulled the card. phone powered on and then stayed on. very strange
someone give me some help please!!
thanks
have you try format your card using recovery? Amon_Ra recovery is very usefull..there is an automat format SDcard in to 3 partition..as far as i know..you just need to configure each partition size according to what rom you are going to install..
if amon_ra's recovery doesnt work for you (it should work great) you can download GParted Live and format it using that... its a great tool for this you can get it here:
http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
i have tried formatting through recovery images also. why do u guys think the card turns the phone off?
im just lost here

After installing miui.us 1.7.22 the sd card won't mount to the phone. And after going to the backup of stock ROM the phone starts up saying sd card unexpectedly removed. And even after doing a factory reset and wiping both cache the problem still persists.
Can anyone help me?

Well, if removing it and replacing it while booted into the rom doesnt work,
and neither did a full wipe, I would say you could try a different rom, to see if you get that same problem, and if you dont, then you know its the ROM. I would also try reflashing.
If no one else has had this issue, then it could just be something you did
So it ended up being the sd card itself. After reformsting the card it worked. Thanks though

Hi! Don't know if this is the right section but i really need some help here, or imma throw my hone out the window. Yesterday my phone started saying my SD card was damaged, so i replaced it, and it worked fine, until today. my new card is broken.
So i can't use my backup since my sdcard dosen't work. I've tryed connecting the SDcard directly to my pc, and mount it through recovery. It just says Error mounting SDcard.
I can't install a new RUU.
What the hell should i do?! im getting some panic now.
Please help
Thx in advance
p.s the phone is a HTC Wildfire, and i've used CM7 since 1-1½ months back.
Edit: i have tried to wipe everything, such as dalvik and doing a factory reset, and still nothing.
Is it a cheap one off ebay

i know you said that you tried "directly" connect your sdcard to your computer but was the card still in the phone? if it was then take it out and actually throw it into a computer either through an adapter or slot and format it
Hi, I've been having problems since flashing a custom rom which is kitkat. When wiping and restoring I get an error along the lines of "android secure file missing" and something to do with am external SD card not being detected even though I've never had one on this phone.
When I try and flash a new Rom, I wipe everything and flash. Everything appears to be successful and then I reboot and it just stays on the boot screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
