[Q] The phone doesn't fins the SD card ? - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi ! my phone doesent find my sd card anymore ? I have a Transcend class 6. I've tried to formate the phone and card but nothing works. The sd card works fine in a card reader but not in the the phone.
If anyone knows how o fix it, then please help !
PS. sorry for the bad Englsih.
EDIT : It also works if I take "disk drive" it's only when I take "active sync" it doesen't work

When in active sync click on explore when next window opens
click on My Windows Based Mobile based Device
You will then see the storage card

förstår inte riktigt hur hur du menar. Men om jag fattar dig rätt så är de samma sätt som jag alltid kommit åt mitt minneskort.
problemet är att minneskortet inte syns när jag använder active sync

if your HD2 connected to your computer, if so just unplug it and then restart the phone and you should be able to see it. The SD will never show on your phone if it connected to a computer since the computer only has access to the SD card. If it doesn't still work most ROMs have a SD Format, run that so it will be a compatible form.

Yes! thanks a lot ! It works now after the sd format !

problem copying some files to SD card

I seem to have an issue with some mp3 files copying to my SD card in my phone.
The file will copy over, but at the last minute I get an error message saying the phone has either disconnected or stopped responding.
It only happens with some files - usually ones that are more than 10mb, but some mp3 files copy over fine and all other files types seem to copy without any problem - e.g. I can copy over a 150mb rom file.
I am running vista home edition.
Anyone else have this issue, or know how to fix it?
I get this error sometimes as well, but only when using active sync ...
Connect your phone and choose the "disk drive" option to copy stuff to your sd card ...
It is not a fix but a workaround ....

Same as you.... I figure it out that this problem will happen only when I flash cooked rom, after I flash back the official rom... Problem just disappear.

Thanks for the reply. This is going to sound like a dumb question, but what is "disk drive" option?
I'm using windows mobile device centre on vista, I don't get any options on connection, it just startes the centre & syncs.
On your phone, when you plug it it , it should give you the option of "Active Sync", "Internet Sharing" or Disk Drive"
If it does not, goto the "usb to pc"(active sync) settings on your phone and re-enable the "Ask me first ...." setting
You sir, are a legend! Thanks very much, all working now.

[Q]My SD card is not being recognized

I am sure this has been posted before, i searched and looked at the topics but nothing helped.
I am running Android 2.2 FRG33 on my hd2 and my rom is ChuckyROM GTX + CHT 1.8.5 - 23128
All of a sudden while running android my phone didn't show my SD card (16 gb sandisk micro sdhc). So i took it out and put it back in. Nothing. I switched to windows with the custom rom, but it was still not being recognized. I tried Hard reset, nothing. I don't have a adapter so i can't connect my sd card to my computer. Also when i plug my phone in i don't have the option to mount as a disk drive
Can anyone help me

Did you tray to format your SD?
I just tried it. The sd card was shown in file explorer but then it disappeared. I formatted the sd card again but it wasn't even shown in the file explorer
Come on guys, can anyone help me please ?
Allthough I don't have any experience with Android, I doubt if that's got anything to do with it.
If you look up the posts about this issue, you might get the impression that the HD2 kills Sandisk cards at one point or another.
It did so with mine. I had no other possiblility then to buy a new one
I didn't buy another Sandisk 'cause I wasn't sure which was the culprit.
I'm sorry that I don't have better news for you.
First, check that other cards work in your phone...
Then, if they do, I suggest buying a MicroSD to USB (like £2) and try formatting it on the PC...

plzz help me out................

hiii everyone,,,,,,, recently i exchanged my x10 mini pro with my friend and take his rubbish cheap phone for 4-5 days as he needed mine for taking photo of a place.we also exchanged our sd cards, but since i took my phone back and trying to insert my sd card, it is not getting detected and phone keeps restarting automatically again and again and there is no option except watching ,,, my friend told me that he once plug the card in a pc that contains lots of serious virus,, phone works fine after removing the card,, but what is a smartphone without a sd card ( a useless ****)......... thanks in advance,,,, and do reply and help plzzzzzzz,,,, and btw i m using a custom rom ( ginger dx )
i try to help you:
put the SD-Card into a PC. if the PC "see" the Card and you can copy some files from/to SD-Card, than i think the SD-Card is working.
But if the PC don´t "see" the SD-Card, than i think the Card is damaged.
Be careful with the SD-Card at the PC. If your PC read/write any datas from/to the Card an at the same time you put the Card out from the slot, than the card is to 99% damaged.
you should always klick to "remove hardware" at windows - your phone had this funktion too. Use this!
i will give a few things you cant try
1- do what the post above told and if you see the card copy your things and try formating(THIS WILL ERRASE EVERYTHING ON THE CARD, so dont forget to copy)
2- if step dint work, then you can try to use a diferente card and see what happens, if is the phone or you card
3- the last i have if you think the problem is in the phone then you can do a stock format(AGAIN THIS WILL DELETE YOUR PHONE THINGS, so do a backup first of every thing you need)
you can do this on the phone itheres is a option in the configuration
or with PC companion using the rapair they have
hope i helped

[Q] Problem With SD Card

Hey guys!
I'm having a problem with my SD Card here...
The SD was normal, my phone was normal too, but I decided to Unlock my Bootloader...
The bootloader is unlocked now, I installed a custom kernel "NaA" and I reflashed my room, just to make sure.
But, after all this, the SD Card problem begun...
Every time I connect my phone to the PC, the message "touch the button to connect bla bla bla" appears normaly, but when I touch the button to see the content of the SD Card on my PC, automaticaly appears the message on the StatusBar that I can safely remove my SD Card.
I cant formmat via PC, because he dont recognize my SD (Because of the "touch button" problem)...
What can I do?
Thanks!
Well, I've no idea what's causing that but you should be able to see what's on the SD card via your PC by using the memory stick adaptor that came in the box with your phone. Or try buying a memory card reader.
Or..when you connect your phone to the PC, don't select the option to view your files on the window that pops up, just select the bottom option instead ("Charge Phone" or something similar). Then use your pull-down menu and select the USB Storage option.
Normally, this lets you view the contents of your memory card on the PC. Because I don't know why you're having the issue you are, I don't know if this'll work or not but it's worth a try.

[Q] HTC evo3d problems help

Hi everyone,
after 1 year expericing with evo 3d everything is ok,
but in the last month some problems are killing me.
1- when i put the usb connection to download image, after i get sd error and cant see any images from gallery. (files are visible with android assistan, visible after rebooting, tried different cables, different sd, the system doesnt sees anymore images of applications, maybe some refresh problem?)
2- when i turn off the screen and connected to wifi or datamobile, both turn off till i turn on the screen, its a very annoying problem...
3- also the music application cant find my mp3 folder with music.
4- when i open gmail at first it says "no data connection", even if i'm connected, and clicking refresh works. (but i have to click everytime!!!,,,,
5- today i got also a strange grey icon of the battery with an ? on it, first time ever seen it.
other miscellanea information:
the phone is all original, i'm using apex launcher instead of sense, there is a lot of free space on sd, the phone never fell on the floor, nor in the water. camera is working great and all other function, no lag in applications,,
i hope some of you great xda master can help me finding a solution,
thanks to all.

ps. does exist an application that cancel all unused application files in the sdcard? thanks again.
1 and 3 sound like a bad sd card or card reader in the phone. The rest sound like an OS bug, which a factory reset should hopefully clear up.

What do you mean "cancel?"
thanks for the answer,
i guess is the sd card, il try a factory reset. the new sd card that caused problem is a samsung 16 gb cas 6, i thoght it was good.
i mean wipe the garbage, like all those files left behind from applications uninstalled and no longer used.
thanks again.

Well, normally when you connect the USB cable and choose to connect the USB storage then the SD card becomes unavailable to the phone but the computer can then access it. Both the computer and the phone cannot access the SD card at the same time... I will spare you the technical reasons but you should know that this is normal. After you are done copying files with the computer then you must turn off this USB storage mode so the phone can access the SD card again and then it will see all your music and pictures again (all these are stored on your card by default).
This should all be fixed OK by a reboot of the phone though in any case. Are you sure you rebooted the phone completely? maybe you should try to remove the battery once?
If you've done all that then you can try to repair the SD card by taking it out of the phone and using micro sd to SDHC adapter and inserting it directly into a computer then using windows to run a chkdsk on it.
hi,
i've done all you said properly, you know the problem came out because there was a differente behavior than in the past.
i remove securely the phone from pc and then is not accessible,
i didn't tried to chdsk the sdcard i'll try, but it sounded strange to me because its brand new.
i also tried to contact htc , they said " try to reboot, or try to remove the battery and the sd and start the phone again, the problem wasnt gone.
thanks for the advice.

Well if it's just gotten corrupted then you can just reformat the sd card. You'll want to backup all your data first so if you can't do that from the USB connection to the PC then you'll need to insert it directly into a pc. Once you've formatted it you can put your backed up data back on the card and put it back in the phone and after a while it will find your mp3s again. If it's truly a bad sd card then the reformat won't help.
Do you have another sdcard? The one that came with the phone or any other? Try putting some mp3s and photos on it and then put that in your phone. If your phone recognizes the photos and mp3s then maybe your current sdcard is the problem. And can you tell the the format of your sdcard? Is it NTFS or exFAT or FAT32? If it is UHS-1 card there is a good chance that it is in exFAT. To make it work on Evo 3d, convert it to FAT32 .
