Dear taiko,
currently my Atom Life using WM6.I tried several time to flash medkid v1.6.0.5 using minisd method. but endup stuck at ***MINI-SD DETECTED** in bootloader and nothing happen after that. tried few minisd already, but the result still the same. the minisd has been formatted to FAT16 and even have tried on FAT32. ive put the necessary file on the root storage card accordingly; i.e. AL1.dio, etc.
So im hoping if anyone can guide me to flash the OS using any utility program instead. i guess, the info would be very useful to most of us here.
Thanks
I had the same problem..... only until my friend borrow his mini sd card 128mb (nokia). it works.... i also try with quite a few other mini sd 1gb, 2gb all cannot work....
Hope this information is useful to u.
afterlife...

wah lucky u. u managed to do it. maybe i hav to try lower capacity i.e 128mb or 256mb or 512mb. all this while, i used 1gb.
Hi guys, same problem for me, two weeks ago. I tried to flash with a 512MB miniSD card, and the bootloader freezed like happened to you.
I tried with another new one: problem solved, all woks perfectly........ the oldv miniSD was corrupted.
Yeah. I have a 2GB mini SD. Flashing via bootloader didnt work thru it. So had to buy a seperate 512 MB card. Now flashing works like a charm.
I've already flashed my device several times using all available ROM starting from q108108108 & Medkid's Rom except for the latest version & there is no problem at all using my 2GB MiniSD.
Peronally.. I feel the ROM is great... improve the performance quite a fair bit.... If you are feeling adventures ... u might want to give it a try.. but remember to back up all ur data before doing so....
Notice that you are also from singapore.. if you need any help, just drop me a note...

Ur 2 GB card flashed? Did u format the card completely ?
Please let me know the procedure that you followed..
Thank you
Yaa ,,, that worked for me too using my 2GB miniSD.
1- format using FAT16
2- copy the "ALT.dio" file and nothing else to the miniSD using a card reader
3- flash your device
4- copy whatever you like to the miniSD again
at least, that's how I do it, and it works a treat

Yes it did flash successfully for more than 6X now.
There is no peculiar procedure to follow. The most important thing is formatting the card to FAT16. While using WinXP I'm not sure if the card comes out formatted to FAT16 or FAT32 so I do not use this method. I'm using my Motorola E680I pda phone & a MiniSD/SD adapter to format the mini SD card to FAT16. After this just follow the rest of the procedure.
so.. no solution for this one?
is there any other method to flash atom life rom without using the minisd?
My 2GB miniSD also works fine. Yesterday was the 1st time I flashed the phone. I formatted it to FAT16 also.
I've no problem to flash my device by using my Kingston 1GB mini-SD card.
Have done this based on Medkid ROM since version 6.1.0.1 till now 6.0.1.7, totally 7 times!
Just take note that to format it to fat16, no other files are inside the card.
And most important is dun download the ROM file for other device else it surely will brick your device!
I never expected that I've done so many times, coz Medkid he had done the great efforts on keep updating our device ROM.
i used to borrow a 512 MB original Nokia card for flashing. I just freed 70 MB space in that with all other files intact in the card. It still flashes

Hi,
I got question about o2 XDA .
How big MMC/SD card i may put into it? now i got 64mb card, but it seems to be not enough for me ...
Whats the biggest card i can put in this phone?
The biggest capacity for SD flash memory cards currently on the market is 512 MB. I use a 256-MB SD card on my XDA II.

I saw 1 GB SD Card
Pocket Windows 2002
How big i may install that i dont have problems with my operating system ?
I may format SD card using XDA ?
any problems or specification what card to use or dont use?
I just brought a 512mb card from Expansys for £140. They said there was now a 1gig version available however they never had stock. After a bit of ringing around I discovered that no one else had one in stock either so I settled for the 512mb (which I think is ample considering the size of most applications). 8)
Thanks - Sunny.
I've just got mine 512MB - works well on my XDA I

eventually SD cards have been not that expensive as compared to USA or UK, and also on www.ebay.de you can find a nicely priced card

ps. I said that SD 512MB card work flawlessly as my previous 256MB lexar did not
Does anyone here already own a 1-GB SD card? I can't find a web site that sells it. Is it already available? Where?
I have noticed ... one group member using it

SD Card Erasers
To Grooby
Found this tip to prevent beta versions of WM2003 from erasing SD cards.
Set your Today screen to the Windows Default, voila! Not pretty though. Another tip said to name your SD card while formatting & it won't be erased. Don't understand this one.
TMO ROM4.01.00, RS6.24.01, XDA I
1-GB SD card will soon be available (finally!)
The 1-GB SD card that was announced last year will finally be available for purchase at the end of this month. See this article.

U can flash using SD card, herewith step to do ( i done it sucessfull ):-
1) using WinHex to remove 12 byte header
2) save file to diskimg.nb0
off course as said above, can translate to .nb0, but have to use small size sd card for flashing, my card 1Gb, can not flash
? my card is 1gb can flash 6828 with no problem

i think you have to format your card to FAT & not FAT32

hi guys i'm trying to find a solution for sd cards unmount on lg optimus one!!!i have a kingston 8gb cl4 and i had a 4-5 remount a day before trying this:
format with windows,choose file system fat32 and in allocation unit size choose 64 kb(should be the maximum) and give a name!
after this i had no problem for 5 days: no remount no reboot!!!
i would share this because it could be a solution....so anyone have problem may can test it!!!
there is a solid solution. buy a class 4+ micro sd..
but, kudos to you! i have a class 4+ micro sd so i can't test it out, but i'm sure others will.
btw this will kill all ur data in sdcard. backup is needed

So easy if it isn't your money that will be spent
BTW, I have a class 4 SD and it unmounts regulary, so class 4 doesn't really work.
Thanks for the tip dongimin2, I'll try it out.
before i bought kingston class 4 i had the original microsd that was shipped with optimus one and i never had problems!the problems started when i bought kingston memory!....howewer.....another day without a remount or reboot!
If speed is the problem (assuming it is), then I bet reiserfs solves the problem. That is if someone can get it to work with Android Just my opinion though.
EDIT: reiserfs for Android exists. Can someone port it for the O1? xD
8gb cl6 never once had unmount. Previously on original card, unmounts several times a day

with me happens the opposite...with original sd never had an unmount....with the cl4 8gb several!howewer i'm passed a week without unmounts!
And... what about having NO SD AT ALL? Is it possible? Does it still crash the phone?
Can someone test it (I don't own the device, sorry)?

Erm, this could really solve the unmount problem, I guess.
@kpbotbot reiserfs is goddamn fast..i have been it for past 5 years and not a single corrupt file ever..(MS needs to learn) having a2sd on reiserfs will be quite good and how abt using FAT and not FAT32 for saving data on SD..havent tried it but shudnt it work ??? Both fs have same 4GB filesize limits

Have you tried using the old FAT on your SD? Afaik, max sizes for FAT is about 260~. I'm going to install either Debian Testing or aptosid tonight and I'm going to try out reiserfs
On the relevant side: I hope someone ports it on our kernel :/
I formatted the card from the phone , but nothing changed...i have root + milk os 1.0 touch lag kernel , before rooting + milk os kernel , i hadn't sd unmounts...i did a nandroid backup . Should i restore it ? , but i'll loose the overlock + no touch lag.. what should i do ?
Just an update: I formatted the SD card as the original poster suggested, and it did reduced the umounts considerably, but not totally.
I stigg get a umount every 5 days or so, which is surely better than twice a day
Looking forward to Gingerbread...

Hi All
I recently had to restore my Xperia x10i to stock firmware with flash tool. All that is fine and the phone it working once again
But now the phone says "Sd Card Blank or has an Unsupported Filesystem" and even my laptop says it must be reformated,
If i procede to format (with any formatting tool) The computer brings back an error and i cannot complete the proccess.
The strangest thing about it though is the fact that laptop says the card has 1.3TB of storage, which is vastly incorrect as it is only a 2GB card.
If anybody can help with my problem it would be much appreciated
thanks
You're sd card is corrupted. better buy a new one buddy..
I would've thought there would be some way to fix this :/
thanks anyways
Edit: If i do chkdsk with command prompt, the laptop comes back with, the type of file system is RAW
have you tried formatting it on your phone?
hey mate, have u try to repair it using ur pc?
at ur pc, open my computer
right click the sdcard drive
click properties, select the tools tab
then click on error-checking
it should help..
try tis b4 formating ur sdcard
Thanks, i'll try that when I get home. The fail that is Windows XP wouldnt let me do anything!
I'll let you's know if it helps

if u had previous 2.1 rom with partition sdcard and switch to 2.2 rom, for sure u will have notification blank sdcard because 2.2 have native app2sd which does not required 2nd partition

My 64GB SanDisk Ultra Class 10 card was running fine untill recently i flashed Omni ROM !! Then i was not feeling good with onmi and i returned back to Stock Rom..then the problems started to occur.I didn't notice at 1st.after when i connected to my pc to insert some files the files does not WRITE !! it shows that the files are being copied but when i refresh it stays the same old files which was previously there before....
What to DO ????
Can any one Help !!!
Use sd formatting tool on your pc, if still the same then buy a new card.
I have the same SD card, and sometimes when I flash a new rom I have to format because my phone is unable to read it. I always reformat it with SDFormatter V4.0, you can try it.
Do a "FULL (OverWrite)" format to be sure.

My S3 has killed at least 3sd cards of mine. Phone would start dismounting and remounting the SD card by itself, eventually the card would stop working. I've given up using a SD card in my phone
Mine has the same 32gb card I put in the day I got the phone, 2 years ago. Not had any problems at all, I avoid using the internal storage to reduce wear on the emmc chip.

I tried formatting it with windows but no Luck !! In windows it shows it formatted but when I insert it back into phone it stays the same .It returns back to its previous state... The thing is that my card shows that it is copying or deleting files but after a while everything just goes back to where it was ..I still have my old files unable to do any thing...so only Read Only ... :'(
Thats it I am never flashing a non stock based ROM ever !!
