Anyone got this: my HD2 does not end the boot sequence when my SD-card is inserted. I can just see the screen to enter the SIM-pin, and then it reboots again... and again ... and again... until I take off the backcover and eject the SD-card.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Two things I might do - first of all check whether you have the new SD Card 'mysterious' patch of HTC's website for the HD2 (http://www.htc.com/uk/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=297&act=sd&cat=all)
and/or format the SD Card using a computer (Start > Computer > Right Click on SD Card > Format) and make sure it isn't corrupt.
Yeah, it definitely seems a corrupted card.
Re-format is the best option.
solved, thx!
Ok, did this and it's fine now
1) The mysterious patch didn't solve it
2) Backupped the SD, format, put my data back and to be sure checked it for errors, softreset and yes... my HD2 came through!
Thanks for the suggestions, should have thought of this myself....
So after I flashed WP7, everything works fine. But whenever I turn off the phone (long press end call key) and open it again the next day. All my settings are gone (i.e. Hard reset without me doing anything). Also same thing happens when I change my regional settings and click that link to reboot my phone. Why is this? Hope someone can helpme out.
EDIT:
EVERYTHING IS WORKING. Data is saved after reboots.
Steps:
1. Flash WP7 like usual WITH SD card inserted
2. Wait for WP7 to load up.
3. Physically REMOVE SD card from phone.
4. Restart phone
5. When phone is booting up (white HTC screen). Put back in the SD card
6. You should then see the WP7 setup screen.
I hope this helps out other people who had similar problems with stock hd2 2GB SD card.

sorry for the stupid q, but do you have an sd-card inserted into your phone? cause it seems like you don't. wp7 uses sd card for some off system files.

yup, SD card is in. Pretty sure it's compatible (According to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912904 it's). I've got the stock HD2 SanDisk microSD_2 GB.
i have exactly same problems did you ever figure it out?
thanks

i bet its not compatible, this sounds like the shipped 2gb card and i had the same problems like many others with the shipped sd card
-> have you got the first start steps?
i think no
remove your sd card, go to settings, info and reset your phone
after this everything will work (until your storage is gone)

God i hate this :[

Yeah i've heard about the stock sd card being a pain, going to try your suggestion.
Everything is working. I've listed what I've done in my original first post.
Every time I try to install the Yuki/XBmod v2 ROM, I keep getting this damn error on the phone when it boots:
There's a storage error.
Your storage card seems to have changed-we need you to use the card that came with your phone.
Please turn off your phone and then make sure that the card is properly inserted in its slot.
I have followed the instructions countless times, formatted my SD card many times, and I keep getting that error.
It works when I don't have the SD card in the phone.
Can someone please help me with this error and tell me what I am doing wrong? Thanks! I would really, REALLY appreciate the help!

Have you tried "Do hard reset after all update if you have freeze or any problem
(When Magldr show WPH LOAD 12345 GO GO GO Press Vol+ & Vol- then after the new screen press VOL- twice.)"
with sd in.

Yes. I have done that as well and still gives me that storage error.
Could it be the SD card that I am using? Or am I doing something wrong?
I really want to get Mango so bad!
what OS are you at now (settings/about/ os version)?
did you prepare card?
-Enable 24MB extra memory in Magldr services
-Delete MBR of SDcard in Magldr services
if you done this and card not work, try this:
boot without sdcard... make hard reset (settings - about - reset)
upgrade with zune to 7392
make hard reset again (settings - about - reset)
insert card, boot and upgrade to mango...

Right now, I am on 7.7004.
I can only use the WP7 ROM without SD card. The ROM does not want to take my SD card because of that "storage error"
I don't understand why?

sd card not compatible with current driver... again: you must try upgrade to 7392 without card....
maybe this not solve compatibility but if not solve, then you know to must buy new card...
im on 7403 and still that storage card error, and not only that it now cant detect three cards, all worked with wp7 at some point but the resets made them defect and now i cant even format them, really want to get mango, but now i have no more cards and i dont want to brick my last as well, someone now any solutions?

I updated to 7008 from Zune but Zune doesn't detect anymore updates from this point on. Zune is supposed to find the 7392 update but it just tells me that my phone software is already up to date. Why is that?

try force update.... when you hit update after 2-5 seconds terminate internet connection... this maybe you must do few times before update shown
I get this error two, and I've also dual booted WP7/Android in the past then went back to NAND/CLK Android and now want to try WP7,5/Android again but now it doesn't work. I keep getting that error. So I know the sdcards work (8GB Kingston C4)
Hi,
I did some wrong wipe using CWM, then I think my phone is clean now.
Now, if I press Power+ VolumeUp + VolumeDown buttons, I'll get to the pink screen.
Trying to connect to the PC thru USB cable, I'll get a Removable disk named "Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM", with size of 239MB.
I tried to copy all 5 files downloaded from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1370960 to /image/, or /cust/image/, or /cust_backup/image/ and the UPDATE.APP (from step 2, official 2.3.5 package) in /dload/ folder of a blank SDcard, but it still goes to the pink screen.
Any hint for me? I cannot download the official 2.2.1 package
Thanks a lot!
-- Edited --
I re-partitioned my phone before following this guide: http://android.modaco.com/topic/341374-custom-you-data-partitions-size/
My phone is the GSM version, not the CDMA (C8800) one.
I think my /system/ dir is also empty. Does it have anything to do with the upgrade?
Following this post I'm able to have CWM4 and Oxygen back.

But, still not able to install stock 2.3.5. Any hint on this? Thanks!

Did you copy the dload folder and its content to an internal or external sdcard? Sounds a bit like your phone doesn't find the update files.

I tried with the external sdcard. My card is 4GB, FAT32. Should that be the cause of this issue?
I also tried with the internal sdcard (/HWuserdata/dload/UPDATE.APP) but the result was same.
Is there anycase that my UPDATE.APP is corrupted? Could you please help check it's checksum?
Thanks!
============= UPDATE ===============
I tried with the internal sdcard ONLY (remove the external card), and it's working. Firmware update Step 2/2 - ~35% now.
THANK YOU A LOT!
Friend Averell I had the same problem. I solved it this way:
When the phone was off (black screen) after the "Step 2" update,
I pushed the Vol-Down key (not the Vol-up) and then the power button.
After this I left the power button, but I kept pressing the Vol-down for at least 10-20'', until a screen was shown which told me "Formating User Data, Formating Cache" etc.
After all these the phone booted ok and the stock ROM was activated.
I didn't even needed to apply the "Step 3" of the upgrade.
Try it and I am sure your problem will be solved.

I meant the internal 2Gb memory of the phone. Sounds still weird tho. Unless your sdcard has some exotic file system that the phone can't deal with (mine has fat32 and everything went well), I don't know what it could be. Maybe some wiser person could step up here. And check that you didn't use capital letters for your dload folder...Don't know if that really matters, but it could...
Thank all.
The problem seems to be at my 4GB SD card. I flashed 2.3.5 successfully with the internal card.
I tried another 2GB card, and it also work.
Thanks!
yesterday, i managed to update oxygen 2.3.2 r1 to huawei's official 2.3.5 with my 8GB Kingston card, and everything went well, but today when i tried to shoot video, camera stopped after 6 seconds, and phone said that sd card is removed, and i tried to restart phone, took sd card off from phone and formatted card in PC, but nothing worked, then i put another 2GB card in phone and everything is working again??!? weird.. maybe my kingston's warranty just voided last night. It's so typical to me.

You could just try re-formatting the 8Gb card and see if it works. I've ended up cleaning up the whole sdcard for a few times (I've usually had a small ext2 partion and wanted to start from the clean table) after which everything has been back to normal again (in windows cmd: diskpart --> list disk --> choose Disk "your sdcard" --> clean all --> create new partion and format the card) ..or you probably could do that in CWM recovery too...I'm just too used to do it this way...just beware if you try this, be SURE you choose the right disk or you'll end up deleting a whole partion from your computer's hard drive.

ok, cleaned whole sd card and re-partitioned it and formatted, but no luck. Still when i try to take picture or video it wont let me to do that. It does still make android and DCIM folders etc. to card... and i can copy files to card with computer. but only with external card reader, not in phone.

Too bad. But it's hard to believe that your SD card has something wrong in it since it works in your computer. Probably another unexplained weird software glitch again. Some people reported that they can access the sdcard but not being able to write on it, maybe this "bug" is in the same category.
Btw, have you tried any other ROM and if the problem still exist there?

ok, i tried card to nokia phone, and it works in there.. also it has been in huawei since beginning, so it has worked with official 2.2, B160 custom rom and with oxygen latest. But now when i changed to new beta 2.3 rom, it worked about a day. Maybe i have to wait one more month until final rom is released. Thanks sbasil for good advices.
I have swapped to this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1912740
and suddenly it's reporting that my SD card is damaged. I have been using this card for a long time through multiple ROMs without any issues. Looking at the thread, I'm not finding anyone with my problem so far, so it could be something more general.
I did a clean install (wiped all user data and everything). Reformatted the card - no luck. Tried another SD card (an old 1GB micro SD) - still keeps saying "SD Card is Damaged". When I say "OK" and tell the ROM to format it, nothing happens--I get the SD Damaged message back.
Not sure if my ROM installed poorly or I'm having some odd compatibility issues.
Tried formatting from Clockwork mod too - formats successfully, but upon entering the ROM, I get the "Damaged SD" error.

The ROM is installed to NAND with the ODEX thing included (built into the ROM installer options). Just did another factory reset / data clear / reformat / ROM reinstall - still showing that SD card is damaged =/ I guess it's something in the ROM, as it's never been an issue before.
Edit: Solved.. I formatted the SD card in my friend's phone, which has a different version of a CM ROM. Works fine in mine now... odd...
Another SD "broke"
Ok, so now we installed an Android ROM onto the other phone (Paranoid Android for HD2 this time - NAND installation), and the Damaged SD card message is popping up again - with another SD card... that was also working perfectly fine through multiple other ROMs before (is this something JB ROMs seem to break?.. Hard to believe it's a coincidence).
So now I can't fix this second SD card. Tried formatting on my computer - no luck. Formatted in Clockwork recovery - no luck. Trying to format it inside the ROM gives a message that the system is analyzing the card to format it, then nothing happens, and the "Damaged SD" message pops up again... so basically it's not getting formatted. This is on both phones now. I was able to fix the first SD card on an older version of an ICS Android ROM, but as that ROM is no longer installed (bugged out completely, hence trying new ROMs now), both of our phones can't format my card.
Any other way to do this? I really don't understand why the card gets messed up for these JB ROMs, and don't know how to fix it at this point.
For completeness, I did run chkdisk on the card, and it's operating fine, no errors. It works just fine connected as USB storage through MAGLDR, I can install ROMs from it and everything. It just appears corrupted as soon as I enter my Android ROMs.
Use Windows on pc and do slow full format
