I flashed over to ATRIX 2.3.4 v.4 a bit ago. I wasn't super excited so I went back to eclipse v.6. I forgot to nandroid before I flashed ATRIX, so I wiped the big 3 and flashed eclipse back. I booted into recovery to flash the sd flip flop to go back to like stock, but when I selected choose zip from sd card it says couldn't mount sd card. I booted back into eclipse and opened file manager, it says my sd card is empty. Any advice?
Edit: when I go to settings>storage I have the option to mount internal storage(which is actually external) but it says file format unsupported. Did something corrupt the whole card during flashing? Is the sd flip flop the cause? I've flashed it every time I flash a rom that has flip flop pre installed
Edit 2: didn't want to but I formatted sd and it works now, just lost all my rom downloads :sadface:

I am rooting my daughters Droid Eris. I used the app from the market and flashed Cyanogen 7. Everything went well until I tried to start restoring her apps and found that the phone is saying there is no sd card. When I go into setting to mount it it is greyed out and wont do anything. the gallery and rom manager also say there is no sd card. the card I am using is not partitioned. I tried taking a partitioned sd out of my old Cliq and putting it in and then it says it has a unsupported system or something like that but I did notice that the mount sd in settings was no longer greyed out. If I reboot into recovery it will recognize the card because it lists what is on it. I have searched everything I can find and cant find any answers. Oh, also, when I plug in the usb to the computer it does nothing then either. Any Ideas??
Go into recovery since her phone can read the card from there and reformat the card. You may also want to wipe data and dalvik and reflash the rom to be on the safe side.
Make sure that you backup anything currently on the SD card before formatting it, which you can do from the usb-ms toggle option in recovery. You will need to copy the rom file back to the phone after formatting the card which can be done from this option as well.
There should be an android.secured folder on the SD card. Delete that. You don't want it on there so make sure you don't copy it back to the card (it will come back after the first boot and it can then be left alone, I like to delete mine before each flash though to avoid possible problems.)
EDIT - DONT FORGET TO FLASH GAPPS RIGHT AFTER FLASH THE ROM! ALL CM7 ROMS REQUIRE THIS!
Let me know if you have any problems

Totally of the topic BUT I'm Selling a fully rooted Droid Eris running CM7 port ROM for $90...interested PM me.
I recently upgraded to the new MR2 radio and GingerBAMF 20-5. For some reason, I forgot to put pg05img.zip in a different folder after I installed it. It had been working fine for a few days, but when I tried to install a kernel through RomManager, it started to go downhill. This was my first time attempting to install a kernel. I had "Wipe Dalvik Cache" and "Backup Rom" selected. After installing the kernel, the phone started up with the HTC logo as usual, but it just went to a black screen afterwards. I've tried going into recovery, but it automatically asks me to update to the new radio. The only way I can access other features in recovery is to remove the SD card. Is there any way I can fix this?
1. Remove sd card from phone
2. Put sd card in computer sd card reader
3. Erase PG05IMG.zip from sd card
4. Put sd card back in phone
5. Turn on phone

You could also put the sd card in a friends phone and then use a usb cable to access it like a flash drive and erase the file... That's happened to me on a few occasions now.
Thank you, I'll try those out.
Yup, it works. My tb works again. Thanks again.
I just purchased a new 16gb SD card and have been using an old 8gb that I had from a previous phone since my original 16gb broke in half. At the time of it breaking I was on cm7 7/13 build and otb .13 kernal for cm7. I copied all the files that I had backed up from the old SD and pasted them onto the new 8gb while adding the latest cm7 build and glitch kernals. I just booted into recovery to try and flash these items and it is telling me that there is an error mounting the SD card and under mounts it will not work when I try to mount either. I don't know why this is because all the files on the card are viewable from the regular phone interface and it says that the card is mounted. I just can't enter the "choose zip from SD card" menu in cwm. any idea as to why this is or how I can remedy it?
thanks in advance.

same problem with "cannot mound SD card" in CWM, though I used this same SD card to update to the CM7 7/13 release, but now cannot update to the newest one.. please help!
NEVER worked with COMROM before....HOWEVER
Just like a computer (in a way) your phone saves certain things like how to operate or run on this phone.
Here's my suggestion
Put your mem card in (make sure everything is backed up still) and start the phone NORMAL not in CWM, as you said it reads it just fine so go into:
Settings> Storage
Here hit "Erase SD Card" if it's unavailable just unmount, then proceed
Once you have completed this, put ONLY the .zip files you need back onto the card, via computer...or high speed usb cable, whatever you want but just add the files you absolutly want to do.
Go into CWM and try again....
If it works then go back and only bring onto your card files/pics/vids you ABSOLUTLY want and leave the extra stuff off (meaning maybe one single file on the card is giving the phone a bad taste so the phone is rejecting it.)
Let me know how it goes!
Best of Luck!
Used SD Formatter on my PC, put back the files I backed up onto the SD card, and was able to flash newest CM7! Thanks!
thanks for the info... but sadly my dinc. 2 is set to be delivered tomorrow as I am having the missed call issue quite frequently. I am really going to miss the great dev team and support group that has grown for the fascinate, but it's a shame that this issue is forcing many to jump ship from an otherwise excellent device. thanks again.

The problem: SD card is not recognized when flashing new roms that have been released the month of Feb 2013. Running the Venom Rom, or even the older NillsP roms, the SD card works fine
Here is my setup
- Rooted, HTC unlocked, S-ON, Gingerbread+patch Firmware
Here is what I have tried
- Running the new "wipe tool 5times wipe" , flashing the EclipticRez rom
- I log into the phone, go to settings, storage, click MOUNT SD card, and it says "preparing sd card" but never finishes
- Restarted the phone, back to settings, storage, mount sd card was still there.... clicked it .. no dice
- I then shut the power off, removed the SD card put in a spare 8 GB, settings, storage, mount, and even tried format.. that all failed
- I then... restored the old Venom Rom, and POOF SD card shows up and works....
- I even tried the new viral rom, and the sd card will not work there too...
- I have tried, wiping the rom again, reinstalling the EclipticRez with a different kernal, no dice...
You should get off gingerbread firmware. That sounds like its the problem.

where does one get the most current firmware
I thought that the firmware was the problem, but just wanted to ask everyone what they thought.... I have been digging around and can not seem to find where the firmware is posted. I am not sure which version to use for the new roms. Is it the ICS firmware? If so, do you have the link?
The latest (Global leak) version can be found here. http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390034591667978440. Since your s-on, you might have to relock then flash RUU. Unlock again. Install custom recovery. Then flash a rom. It is a lengthy process.
But since you are s-on. I would recommend flashing this one. http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...cream-sandwich-ruu-for-final-ota-3-14-605-12/
Just a tip, delete the recovery.img from the RUU zip file and then run it. That way it won't overwrite your custom recovery

did you ever try RUU'ing back to stock and starting over again? Did that fix the problem?
My phone just stopped mounting my sdcard on any rom.
I've wiped, tried scott's 5x wipe tool, and both roms I tried will not work. it says "insert SD card" but it's already in. I can get it to say "Damaged sdcard" too, and tried formatting, but that didn't work.
So I'm now downloading the latest RUU [ http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/ ] it says 10 minutes left on the download..This will be my first time ever going back to stock on my rez. But I surely hope this will fix it. But does anyone have any other suggestion before I go back to stock?
edit: ok. I had the RUU downloaded, and was about to flash it, when I realized my sdcard in an external reader seemed to be acting funny. When I was searching for a file with "find" [lists all the files in subdirs] it would always error out and I would have to pull it out and put it back in the reader again.
So I tried formatting My sdcard again [I just did it a few days ago because I kept losing files to LOST.DIR, thought a reformat was in order]. So I did that again, used gparted in Ubuntu to format my sdcard fat32 again. I put it in the phone and booted it up, and I got no errors! yay. I'm glad I didn't restore it to stock. all is well.
I was was running JellyBam and had it all tricked out but the email was acting wanky and the battery insisted it was always being charged. Neither of these were issues when it was a fresh install. I did a backup to my external sdcard and proceeded to format the sdcard since I had two ROMs installed on it and JellyBam doesn't seem to play nice with Siyah.
Much to my surprise it formatted both sdcards. I have been able to install a copy of Siyah kernel onto the internal sdcard. But all of the zip files I was counting on using are gone. How can I get a ROM installed so I can begin recovery? Thanks

Just put the SD card in your computer and copy over that way, then boot into recovery and install like normal. Should have no problems.

ALWAYS a good idea to physically remove your external SD card and then format your internal SD card. Then turn off and put the external card back in.
In this case if you absolutely had vital data on your external card and haven't copied or reformatted it since the mess happened, I suggest removing the external sd, put it in an SD adaptor in your computer and download a data recovery program. It will scan it although your computer might say it is raw/do you wanna format or something like that, and find shreds of files left on it.
Good luck
