My phone is hung up on the "Encrypting SD Card" process. Selecting encrypt or decrypt in the settings does nothing and the SD card is currently unmounted because of it.
This has happened once before but went back to normal after I applied the update that came out last month. Just ended up being great timing. Any ideas on what I can do get the card to remount? I don't want to reformat the card because I know this is fixable but I need to know how to clear the cache or reset the encryption task, or whatever the update did that let it get back to normal. Once this is fixed, the card will be decrypted and it will stay that way. The encryption process does not seem to be all that stable at this point.
Thanks in advance!

Hey all, first off, sorry if this is the wrong forum. If it is could one of the mods please move it.
OK, here's my issue. I had CyanogenMods latest build, 3.4 I think and decided to try The Dudes cupcake 1.RC1. I forgot to do a wipe before installing TheDudesCupcake but when my phone came up it worked ALMOST fine. Had a crash here and there of something, not sure what, but the phone still worked fine. Today, I had an issue with a video (is the SD Card) not being viewable with "Video Player" so I decided to remove the card and pop it back (hoping this would somehow refresh the player). Didnt unmount it so I got the error about i may loose data without unmounting. (i'd done it before without a problem). Well this time around my card was corrupted so I ended up formatting with the phone. tried going into settings to view the size of the drive not since I didnt know if the whole card was wiped or only the FAT32 partition. Kept getting an error while trying to go into settings so I decided to reboot. After reboot I was able to get into settings and saw the whole card was wiped (back to full 8GB of empty space). Thought I would wipe right there from settings since I was getting an error or 2 after reboots and since I had gotten that error when trying to get into settings and then updating back into Dudes Cupcake. (thought the wipe would get rid of any issues of going between Cyanogen to Dudes Cupcake). Once I clicked on wipe and android reboots, it's trying to do something but just keeps rebooting. I've got Cyanogens restore image v1.2 on. So I see the G1 logo, then comes up
Build CyanogenMod v1.2 + JF
Formatting DATA ....
and at the Formatting DATA part it does the reboot and goes back to the G1 logo and comes back to formatting data and reboot.
I tried doing a HOME + POWER but it just goes back to formatting data. I tried doing a CAMERA + POWER but it goes back to formatting DATA.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks and sorry for the long post, I just wanted to give all my steps.

when it says formatting data then done, are you pressing and holding home and back or just pressing and releasing. when the phone is powering on and you hold the home and back keys it will do a hard reset just like a wipe(same thing) or since there is no data to lose any more, try pulling the battery, this will not do any harm as you are not flashing anything
since you have the cyanogen recovery image you should have gone into the console at recovery and typed
fix_permissions.sh or sh fix_permissions.sh
Thanks for the response tubaking. My problem was that it didnt say done. right when the "Formatting Data...." line came up, it reboots, without saying done. And I couldnt get into the Home+Power or the Camera + power screens. Neither one would go there, just back into "Formatting Data:..." screen. After reading half way through the Brick thread I saw someone mention pulling the SIM card out, didnt think that would help but it finally dropped me back into the recovery console. Might I ask why something as simple as removing the SIM drops the loop and takes you to recovery?
thanks.
SO here is the situation. I had my phone set up with cyanogenMOD and had just set up apps2sd. I thought Apps2sd was not running and I realized I had not partitioned the sd card the way I wanted to. I wiped the sd card repartitioned and reformatted. WHen I booted the phone all the apps on my home page were busted( gears for icons). I'm guessing that apps2sd was actually working and I just erased all my apps. Anyway I wiped the phone, reformatted the sd to 1 fat32 partition and downgraded to rc29, in order to just setup my phone from scratch. Now when I boot the phone many of the apps I had before will not install , they download and then i get an installation unsuccessful error. Oddly enough it seems to only happen to apps that i had on my phone when I messed up apps2sd.
Any thoughts on the problem. I would like too wipe and start over, but that doesn't get rid of the problem.
Is there a lower level wipe that can be done besides the factory reset?
\thanks

Did you reroot your phone. Once you load RC29 on again you loose root. Just to let you know, when you have problems like this you don't have to go back to RC29 again.
I did reroot the phone
And also, forgot to mention that after this i tried loading cyanogenMod again and it gets stuck in a loop when it boots and eventually goes to a grey screen.
Did you repartition your card again. And did you wipe (alt + w) before you loaded your rom.
I returned my card to 1 fat32 partition, and yes I did wipe.
Did you create an ext partition for your apps2sd?
no ...I wiped the phone, returned it to stock. No need for the partition. I just cannot install certain applications or the cyanogen rom
I followed the original root method on my mytouch slide but lost it recently from the OTA update. I followed the New Root Method as of 8/13! (Even for latest OTA) to try and get rood again and the second time you enter ./exploid it worked but wouldn't give me root access in any of my apps. I rebooted and tried again without luck. Now my phone refuses to see that the sd card is inserted even though the card works fine in my laptop and I can't get usb debugging to work anymore. I just did a factory reset and cleared the cache partition through recovery but still no luck. Is there a way to fix this?
For some reason the sd card only worked in hboot so I tried flashing the stock .img and that still didn't fix the problem.
Just a suggestion. have you tried reformatting your sdcard? Not possitive it would work but its worth a shot. Strange things can happen. and well it happened to me back in the day with the g1.
Hello. I will go through what I have done thus far to fix this and describe the problem as best I can.
Upon booting up a fresh version of Turbo ROM, after being on TruPure for quite a long time, I booted up to find the SIM card and SD card no longer functional. The menu for cellular networks is greyed out and the sd card is not recognized in the phone booted up, or in recovery. Windows does recognize the SD card and functions as normal.
What I have tried:
Obvious things like reseating, removing, reinstalling. Reinstalling when in recovery, when booted up, everything you can think of.
I downloaded and flashed new modems through using internal storage.
I updated TWRP in case something was going on in recovery.
WIFI still works in terms of getting data
The only thing I haven't tried is backing up the contents of the SD card and reformatting due to being at work. But given this is both the SIM card and SD card, I do not believe this will solve the problem.
Has anyone had this issue or has any advice? I am obviously rooted and unlocked and sending this in for repair probably isn't a great option.
Thank you
Edit: Just wanted to add that this SIM issue first popped up after flashing the Pure Nexus ROM, then Turbo, then back to TruPure. All the same result. But it was fine before I flashed Pure Nexus.
try flash NON-HLOS.bin, hope this will help
So I ended up using the back-to-stock tool and went the nuclear option. This allowed the SIM card and SD card to be recognized. If anyone else seems to have this issue, using that method will get you back up and running at least.
Hello, my phone is running Invicta and I'm trying to flash Lineage through TWRP, but the issue is that I just got a micro sd card as I had stored all my data on my system memory. My phone prompted me to transfer my data to it, so I did. When I tried to get into TWRP, it popped up with a message about the ROM. I ignored it and swiped, and it took me into TWRP. I went to the install area and I found that it was still on my internal storage, so I tried to switch it over to the microsd and when I selected it nothing happened. Are there any ways to fix this?
