I have freezing problems with the latest ROMS (NRGZ, Miri 4.0, 4.1 and even the Stock TMOUS 2.10)
Before installing anything just after syncing or even just going into menues phone hangs up. I tried hard resetting many times but no good.
Yesterday i went back to official Stock Rom (German) 1.66 and it worked flawlessly. Installed Miris today, and it hangs up all the time again.
I even tried using different Radios and the new TMOUS Stock ROM.
Someone told me it would be MTTY 29 related but i dont have Windows 64.
I got Windows 7 32 Bit.
Anyone encountering the same problem?
Could need some help here

Does this occur when you boot without the mem card?

You mean flashing without SD-card or booting?.
I`ll try both and reply. But what if so?
What Radio are you using? You have to use a TMOUS Radio for the new TMOUS ROM's
I had this
I also had this problem a while ago and didnt fancy doing format of device using
mtty thingy.So all i did was install official rom from htc then everything was fine again installing custom roms with no problems.
Sometimes particular micro sd cards have issues with particular roms. I remember once I couldn't boot until i removed sd card. And that rom was one of most popular and hundreds of people had no issues with it. The rom booted fine first time and then after first reset wouldn't boot. I tried flashing like 3 times, but no luck. I took another rom - everything works great.
Some people say you should format it again to fat32 default block size, but it didn't help me, I just flashed another rom and it worked fine. I have sandisk 8GB class 6 card.
So I guess if you remove your sd you would rule out possible (but otherwise very rare) issues with sd cards.
Wild guess actually

I used the Radios Miri recommended (2.07 and 2.08) and with TMOUS Stock the radio is already included as far as i know. But still had the probs.
BUT:
i just flashed and booted without SD card and it didnt freeze.
Put it in again and it freezes ... Maybe it really is the Card.
I got a 16gb Sandisk.
Kinda sucks ill try formatting SD Card and hope it solves the prob.
Any other ideas?

it certainly was the SD-card. I put in the original 2gb and no problems at all ...
There have also been a lot of problems with 16gb cards as well. A whole thread on it was determined that problems with Manila 1922 was from the 16gb cards.

Had similar issues. The trick for me was to keep out the sdcard and then set doc tab to read only local docs, so no email attachments. Then you can sync mail and put in the SDcard and all works fine .....
HTC HD2 Freezing
Just wanted all to know, HTC has recently acknowledged an issue with the 16GB SD card that shipped with the US T-Mobile HD2. T-Mobile issued an internal bulletin to this effect and provided a US number (888.356.2375) to call to arrange to have the SD card replaced, from Level 2 to a Level 4 SD card. Alot of HD2's had the Level 2 card installed and this card was found to cause the phone to freeze. The Level # is indicated by a circle with a numeral in the middle of it. Usually on the upper right hand side of the SD card. When you call the number HTC provided they will want you to have the HD2 in front of you with IMEI and S/N ready. The unique thing is HTC has rescinded their policy to send the 'bad' SD card back so if they send you a replacement Level 4 card you will end up with 2 SD cards. (I'm sure that Level 2 card could be reused somewhere) This info is probably even more useful to owners that have installed Android Froyo 2.2 on their HD2 as I have. The ROM's are usually contained on the SD card itself and not flashed internally. HTC does indicate a backorder on the replacement SD cards (up to 2 weeks or so) Hope this helps some of you with the freezing condition.

ok, so i just called htc and they told me that they are not just replacing any sd card that came with the hd2 and they said "only defective cards" are being replaced ones that dont show up at all.. so what do you advise?
update: Turns out i must have gotten one of the uninformed customer service agents, because i called back a few minutes later and talked to a much better csr agent and they got one being sent out to me in 3-5 days! kick @ss

Gang,
I've recently acquired at AT&T Branded SX56, been moderately happy, but can not complain about the price ($100 . However, twice now I've had the SD card get completely wiped. This is the SD card that came with the phone - it used to have some nice games and the MS software pack. It went bye-bye about two weeks ago. I thought it was a glitch, however, last night the card went blank on me again. All software, data, etc on the card is completely gone.
My question are: has anyone had this problem? Is this a known thing with the phone? Do I have a virus? Am I a blithering idiot that did something stupid (likely)? How do I keep this from happening again?
TIA
it's a known issue with some WM2003 versions ... what's yours ?
Try to keep the SD locked
that's $#%*#
my phone is wm2003, I guess I have to go get an SD card with a lock on it. The one that came with the phone does not. Any way to do a software "r/o" mode?
tia
one more thing
if it's a know problem with certain versions of wm2003 - what version should I get and install to keep this from happening?
tia
Nothing 100% confirmed but TMO 4.01.00 or AT&T 30.09 are said to be more stable
i have a similar proble; the unit didn't recognize the card once it was removed.
Does anyone have the files and can post so i can write on the sd?
Hello,
The same thing happened to me last week on my T-Mo MDA2 (Rom Version: 1.60.00WWE, ROM date: 12/03/03) but in my case I'm using a 128MB MMC with no hardware lock.
Any suggestions aside of using a lock enabled SD Card? (which I think it's dumb since I need to be constantly writing to the card)... :roll:
Regards,
Rayan
I used Kingston 512M SD card with ca. 200 M of MP3 files.
After removing of PocketMusic from MDA these files become invisible in Explorer as from desktop as and from mobile, despite new MP3s added to this card, were assigned to Windows Media.
Then I used SoftWinter StorageTools to format SD as FAT32/512Kps. Since formatting SD works well and I haven't any file lost.
May be this problem appears due to adding or removing some programs, associated with such files?
The weird thing is that some people report missing the files in the card but they know the files are still there because the memory space they used to take is still there, and others (my case) the card got totally wiped releasing all the memory space just as if it was just formated. :shock:
The only thing I can think of, in my case is that since the card was formated by a Palm Tungsten T2 (I could tell that because a friend lend it to me and he has a Palm and also I could see some Palm directories in the card) and I didn't formated before I used it on my MDA2. Do you think this may have caused the problem?
Thanks!
To solve this annoying problem do either(or both ) of the foillowing
1) Change the today theme to windows default (hard to believe i know but it works)
2) Using Storage Tools format the SD card to fat 32, with Backup Fat option ENABLED (you can change the theme back if you want after this)
I know its odd but i havent had this problem since then

The same happened to a friend of mine.
I suggest you to try Pocket Mechanic from http://www.antontomov.com, with this software you can format, verify and repair your storage cards. We did this and the card worked successfully after a Low Level Format and then a Logical Format.
Good Luck!
Hi, can anyone explain to me why the MicroSD needs to be removed before flashing a ROM? I have flashed my phone at least 6 times in the past fortnight (got to love all these new ROMs ) and a couple of times I forgot to remove the MicroSD card. I have not noticed any ill effect, nor did it impact the flashing at all. From my experience it seems to be much ado about nothing. I'm curious to know where the recommendation has come from.
Mike
Hi Mike,
i can verify that flashing without removing SD Card causes problems on my T-Mob Ameo / HTC Athena. It seems that some devices cannot be flashed with inserted card. Didn't try to flash my smartflip yet, but i would still recommend to remove it (at least for unexperienced users).
Best regards

And I've flashed my Ameo many times with the card in with no problems.
What problems do you have when flashing with the card in? If they are easy enough to fix then I think the advice should be 'don't worry about it buit if you have problems then the first thing to try is to remove the memory card'
If, on the other hand, it totally screws your phone then maybe we should always remove the card just in case.
I've flashed my 3125 a few times with the microSD card in place, and didn't have problems. However, the last time I flashed, all of the data on my card was corrupted. I lost everything, including two months worth of detailed work notes.
I realize that it can be a pain to remove the microSD card from the StrTrk, but to me it's one minute well spent to keep from potentially frying my data.
I have two 8GB Sandisk MicroSD card killed by my HD2 (i think so). Anybody faces the same prob? The cards are totally dead now after using it in my HD2 for a few days...
No such experience.
Good to know the Bland and model.
You mean brand?
Try to format it on your pc...
I had the same Isue.. could not format it on xp pc only on windows 7 pc..
mos of the time if you let you put it in your card reader and its recognized.. you just have to let it scan for errors and let it fix them..
Sometimes my cardreader fails to detecet my card. I don't think this is related to my HD2, atleast I don't hope so.
Not had it...yet...on my sandisk 8GB MicroSD. This is the one straight out of a Nokia 5800. The 2GB one which cam with my HD2 went tits up after I tried to import a playlist from WMP onto it. Seems I'm not alone with this issue either...
For the first time I can report a problem with my HTC HD2.
I also seem to have a problem with my 8Gb Scandisk card. It seems either my telephone or my laptop screwed the card up.
I have standard stock last rom available in Holland manilla 2.5 Rom 1.66. No special things installed.
The card works almost 100% except when I go to the tap music. Then hell breaks loose. The phone looks for the music files. But cannot find them and then suddenly the phone cannot recognize the card anymore? I have to restart the phone before it can recognize the card again. This only happens when I go to Music.
But the damage is done anyway. Cause when I insert card in laptop or computer. I can see the files but according to the computer there empty (which is not the case). I cannot copy or cut while in card is inserted in the computer.
I accepted this problem cause I have a good working TomTom on it which someone else installed for me. If I format the card I cannot put it back.
Try to format your card, I did this from my laptop (if it can reorganize it) and NOT chose FAST. Becouse if there is a problem with the card it will simply skip it. This is also a golden rule when you install new OS on a old or well used laptop.
Copy the tomtom folders to a folder on your PC before formatting, then copy back...done
I have a 8GB Sandisk card, I've had it on 3 plones now, using it for about 3 years, still works like a charm.
To the OP, maybe you got fake ones, Sandisk is the most counterfeit memory card brand, if you got them on ebay or so and not in a respectable street shop they might be fakes, for which that kind of failures are typical.

I have this problem, and I went back to HTC. I got a new phone replacement and everything is fine thereafter. =)
I had a problem with 3 different Kingston 8GB cards.
Statred working fine, but after writing more then 2GB to them, they suddenly died.
I tried all of them in the phone and in a card reader, and they acted the same way.
As a final test - I used a SanDisk card, and it works just fine from the time I got it.
So - maybe, you just have defective cards ?
Did you try formatting the cards in the phone and not in the PC ?
I have the same problem. If i put the files on my sd card from my pc there seem to be no problem. After I check these files on my phone, they are damaged or the folder is empty. So.. anyone has suggestions what to do?
Same experience here.
8Gb was working fine the first two days (the card that was included with my HD2)
Then, for no reason got a pop-up (invalid card type, do you want to format?)
At forst I said "no" and tried with my computer... None of the 6 software I used could save my card. Was definatly dead.
Put a second one in (1Gb, just to make sure), it's been a week, and I already get errors when I write. It's like the micro SD is on read only (though ther's no switch to set it back to "write mode")
One of the many (many many many) bugs of my HD2
i had the same problem. the 8gb SanDisk microsd card that originally comes with my htc hd 2 is now useless. lost a lot of pics, cab & songs. it can't even be read by card reader on my laptop. is this some kind of bug?? now im using another 8gb card & hope it wont happen again. im glad though that im not the only one having the problem
And i thought i was the only one. My 8GB only lasted for 1 day before it went died. Had to get a replacement from Service Center. The staff seem to handle it in a very fast manner (guess i am not the only one to get the SD card replaced recently!!)
My guess is i did a hard reset on the phone with the SD card in it. Anyone else did the same thing?
My card has been corrupted twice no the HD2 leading to:
1) Very poor performance
2) Very warm phone
3) Very fast draining battery
I believe it was due to the power saving features enabled to do with the microsd as someone else mentioned on this forum.
its a manufactures defect. something should be done. lots of users are getting this problem now,including me
maybe i know the answer..
sorry for my bad english..
I've the same problem. But searching from all forums, finally i get the answer. just find n download EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard Proffessional 4.3.6 (for 5 MB). Insert the mmc in card reader, use this software to recovery all the missing file (choose Complete Recovery Option). After recovery process done, use software LLFTool (for 600kb, just doing some browsing at google) to Low Level Format the mmc (this LLFTool can recognize the mmc). After all done, Windows can recognize again the mmc at windows explorer. Just right click and choose quick format (format FAT32). Done, you can use the mmc like the new one

thanks for your help. i tried your solution but it doesn't work. neither the EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard Professional nor LLFTool detect the memory card. i think there's nothing to be done for the card. just hope htc will sort that out
I have also recently had an issue with my 8gb Sandisk Micro SD card.
It has been working fine for a while now, then yesterday when I went to pick up my phone, I noticed my S2U2 unlock screen was black instead of having my usual wallpaper there. My HD2 had just suddenly decided it can't recognise the card anymore and tells me I need to format it for it to be readable.
I pressed 'no' and tried to read the card on several computers as I wanted to transfer all data off before formatting it, but it would not read on any of them, nor would it work in my old N95.
I don't understand why this has happened, it has been working fine no probs, had about 3gb left on it still and have not recently installed anything on it - very annoyed as I have lost lots of recent photos of my 6month old boy which I cant get back now.
Have had to order a new card and hope this doesn't happen again, but not a happy bunny
I have searched and I can't find an answer..
I have installed virtually all of the current 2.2 ROMS and I cannot get any of them to recognize my sd cards...I have odined back to stock, and flashed over and over and every time, the phone will say "no sd card inserted" IT even did the same thing when trying to mount the sd cards through clockwork recovery with the OS not even booted up...
When I flash a 2.1 ROM back to the phone, it behaves perfectly and reads both SD cards normally. Any one else have this problem or know of a fix?
i thought i had this issue last nite what i did was turn off usb debug then checked ask on connection in the usb setting and let it reboot and waited for it to reread everything then it was fine
If you had read all the posts of all those threads that you got the ROMs from, you would have seen that all the Froyo Roms had this issue. This has been posted many times over the past few days.
In Eugene's Froyo thread, you may find a fix for that.

There is a separate SD fix, but that was included with the new rom apparently. I have seen posts that those who pushed that fix had it work.
If I go to settings>sd card and phone settings
both the sd card storage and the phone storage say unavailable!
this only happens when you are using 2.2 right?
yes.. its only on 2.2 roms.. and every one of them I have tried.. when I flash back to 2.1 it works great.. I am guessing its some sort of kernel issue...
I did get it rebooted into clockwork and wiped pretty much everything but the sdcard...did not do any good.. also tried moutning the sd card from clockwork with 2.2 installed...the sdcards did show up on the computer, but when clicking on them it said "Please insert a disk into this drive"

i have researched this for 3 days straight and have found a solution, their is no fix
1.) if you remove your sd card and reboot the phone with it not in there, your internal memory will mount just fine.
2.) so that made me think it was something wrong with my external card, so i went and bought another one, samsung branded, 8 gig class2 card, and what do you know, it mounted just fine.
3.) i did found out that when i flashed back to 2.1 it would see my old sd card, but when i upgraded to 2.2 it wont.
its like 2.2 does not like certain branded sd cards, the one that wouldnt work on 2.2 was made by A-Data

Interesting.. Thank you! I am rebooting without the sdcard now and sure enough the internal card is showing [email protected]
Mine is an 8gb class 6 card.. not sure what brand... I am going to format the sd card and see if that helps!
that was it.. I put my 2gb card in and it worked great.. the 8gb card worked great before, but apparently was not compatable with 2.2
Hello,
I'm a new owner of a phone with android, since a month ago. The problem with my phone is that some time ago it started rebooting about 2 times per day (in some cases rebooting even I'm not touching it)
I tried removing almost all applications and didn't work (the first app was task killer since I read that's not needed).
One thing that may be helping the phone rebooting itself is that some times I see this notification: "SD card removed unexpectedly".
I have a 8gb class 2 card. But I tried with a 4gb class 4 card and same message appear. I tried formating both cards and didn't work.
Anyone can please help?
Best regards,
Pedro
and my P500 do a restart the card SD (2GB, which was from the market) and probably due to the firmware of the LG (it has a .10 b) so I expect the update from LG that fixes the problem

thousands of us are facing this problem. LG are idiots to have released the phone with such a glaring defect.
But also thousands of us doesn't have any problems with this. It's really strange and you can not say, that LG is idiots - maybe everything works before on testing. Maybe some factory failed in collecting, maybe some wrong series of components... maybe.... who knows.
One think is true - they should face up to problems and not do, that nothing happened.
So the only thing that I can do, is wait for an software update from LG? (perhaps android 2.3 resolve it?)

I doubt whether this is related to software, since other phones don't face this issue. The phone has crashed several times at the end of a call, and I couldn't even press the disconnect button. When the phone doesn't even be stable and do the basic phone features properly, nothing else matters.
I also had this problem.
SanDisk 8GB cl2: reboot 2-3 times daily. Best 1% / hour battery.
SanDisk 2GB cl2: remount frequently. 1% / hour battery.
Original card that came 2GB(Samsung?):NO reboot,NO remount, 2% / 8 hours (night) battery!!!
My sd card didn't remove but the device some times start a reboot, and after a few seconds it enter on the phone (after the text ANDROID when i can see the desktop), when the phone signs he's mounting the sd, the phone goes on reset again and do this for several times, and i can't acess to the device. Some times he works normally.
I tryied to start the device without the sd but when he resets he still reset even without sd, so i don't think this isn't a sd question.
Some one else have this problem?
I update to the v10b by lg suite yesterday. I dont have the random reboot problem anymore for the last 24 hr. and I play pocket legend and like ever 2 hours the phone must reboot with the v10a. Now I am very happy with the v10b. no reboot for the game playing but i felt the graphic is little bit slower than v10a. and I am also factory reset my phone after update. So I can tell is it because the firmware or some software on the card or the root causing the reboot. But I am sure I am a happy pocket legends player. I am also using my old nokia 8g class 4 sd card with the original sd back up.
After I update to v10n, I've been runing android whitout rebooting and unmounting for about 125 hours (and growing).
I can say the software solved the problem because im using same card and I didn't factory either the phone or card.
My software version is already v10b by default but I'm still experiencing this "sd card removed" problem plus my phone also reboots it self rarely...
I've read threads about this problem and they recommend updating the software to v10e...
I contacted LG about this: It seems that the reboot bug is SIM-card related. Here in germany, Eplus (and their retailers) SIM-cards seem to be affected.
hi after updating to 2.2.1 v10n i dont have sd card error and reboots that often but sometimes i cant see the apps installed on the sd card. has anyone noticed this too? after remounting the sd card i can again see the apps and can access them but it keeps on appearing and its quite annoying! plz help!
i have both problems rebooting sd card and disappearing apps
i also have v10n

Based on my experience, I'd say the reboot is triggered by the unexpected sd card removal after moving apps to the sd card. Until I've seen some working prove, I'd assume the idea with SIM-cards is just another theory.

I have the phone from late october and experimented a lot with this problem.
In my case it only happen if I move some apps on the sdcard, if I don't move any apps on the sd card, no reboot happens. Also it seem more frequent when data connection is not "stable".
Some user reported they were able to turn around the problem keeping wifi on all the time, but it is a solution I like
In the last couple of months I used the phone with all the apps on phone memory and never had the problem again...
I got this phone a week ago and it's been rebooting ever since.. I even updated to v10f and now it says something about the SD Card after reboot and the SD card wont work after that.. so I have to reboot manually for the SD card to become active again... this phone is nothing but headache... but I'm still happy with it..
Do custom ROM's also reboot randomly?
you need atleast a class 4 sd card, im using class 4 16 gb sandisk. Absolutely no problems at all.
