Sounds like a physical damage. Buy a replacement, they are as cheap as $20 / new at Amazon.

Hi,
As your given detail its external SD card.
If windows is not detecting it then try
1. Minitool
2. sdfmt3_1
You can easly find it on google.
I will recommend to use minitool. search on google about how to use it.
I hope it will work.
Never give up.

SD Card mount error

i have recently bought a TG01, when i got it it was running the orange WM6.1 rom, it wouldnt detect either my 4GB or 8GB micro sd cards, i had to lend a 1GB card to run the official 6.5 update, now the 4 and 8gb cards are detected but whenever i try to flash a rom i get SD Mount error after it loads the SDDL. anyone know why this would happen and if it could be due to that its been partitioned for use on a hero previously?

From the beginning we have problem with the cards. You can find more info in (http://www.modaco.com/content/toshi...m/291115/toshiba-tg01-memory-card-corruption/).
Try to format your card and start from 0.

Try to format your card and start from 0. I had this problem but don't remember with witch program I format the sd card. Wen I bought my TG01 it show me just 1GB and the card was 8GB then I find some info that you need to format y our card but I didn't find now where is this info. In the modaco web you can find more info and in google about this.
ive tried formatting it several times, the phone picks up the card fine when in winmo, i just cant flash any roms with it as the SDDL cant mount it.

To format your card use (“sdfv2000.exe”) I uploaded for you. Try it if not working I have an other solution.
Same Issue.
I have been having the same issue since day 1. Has driven me insane with program's icons that are loaded up on the sd card not showing up properly in the start menu, they always have a blank icon on them. Has really driven me crazy. Has anyone found a solution to this?
try and use sddl+ to flash the rom instead of just sddl
Already did that.

Thank you for your advice however I already tried that potential solution and many different roms and radios, I tried formatting my SD card with the Panasonic sd card format utility, but no luck. Would getting a class 10 Kingston card be a smart idea? Or maybe I need to buy a slower Transflash card? I have a 4GB Class 6 from SanDisk but the same error occurs. Do I and the other people have defective phones, or is this an issue that can be solved? What should I do?

I've never had a problem with SD Card. Now I bought a 16GB Kingston Class 10. I have no problem with the card, work properly.
Getting a class 10.
Tell ya what, I will get the class 10 cuz more space is always good, I will let everyone know if it has solved the problem. Before I do this, I am just going to buy an el-cheapo class nothing sd card and see if the same problem occurs and then I will have tested the range so to speak. I will report anything interesting.

[Q] Reg. SD Card Size issue..

Hi Guys..
M facin a major problem regarding my SD Card..
I have a HTC HD2 as my phone..Few days back I followed the necessary steps and installed Windows Phone 7 on HD2. I was successful in this.
I did not remove my sd card in any of this process. As usual Windows Phone 7 did not give me choice to manipulate the data on my sd card and the sd card was in its control.
Today, I came back to my original Windows 6.5.3 by using the ROM provided by hTC..
My sd card size has reduced to just 200 mb..I did not do nethin wid this..
After which i tried formatting the sd card and stil d same issue..just 200mb..
This is f** crazy ... m pissd on Windows Phone 7..
Can someone please hlp me restore my original sd card size of 8 GB...
Any help wud b appreciated...Thnx in Advance....
For formating your SD use a card reader and SD Formatter 3.0.
Have a look and play with the options.

Help: SD card Issue :|

I am using the CM 7 RC1.. I am using Strontium 8Gb Micro SDHC Card..
Recently i am encountering this strange sd card issue..
When i plug the phone to pc through usb cable i am not able to turn on USB Storage, it just appears like turning on and gives a Msg that "SD card safe to remove"
Also it gives an SD card error in CWM Recovery when i try to mount SD card..
When i mount it through CWM as usb storage. My PC asks to Format the disk. But the disk capacity displayed as in properties is just 45.8 MB !!..
I have contacted the Service Center and they have assured to replace the Card within 8-10days..
But i wanted to know if this is a regular issue due to any bug in this rom??
what do u think has happened to the card.. Is it FIRED!! ?? or can it be fixed

im using rc0
i had a issue similar to yours
when i used to enable usb storage it used to activate
but immediately phone used to reboot
but in my case i could mount via recovery
a clean flash helped solve the issue
I had got this same mount problem a week back , but then i could mount it as usb storage device in recovery.. and my PC detected it, I formatted it and the Card was normal... But this time , this problem occurred when i was transferring few videos onto sdcard, suddenly the transfer halted.. I Turned off the USB storage and removed the USB cable.. From then this issue arrised..
The card is detected by pc in CWM after Mount as usb storage --> After mounting PC asks to Format the device and Then all i see is just 45.8 Mb !!..
I wonder if it is the SD card which is detected or cache ??
i checked it with other devices .. Though the cards capacity is 8Gb it shows UN-Formatted Space of 45.8 Mb .
Try formatting the sd card with SDFormatter v3.1 with format size adjustment on, format to fat32 fs.
Then try in cwm again and if all is good you can re-create any extended partition you require.

Download from internet "MiniTool Partition Recovery", remove the SDCARD from phone then plug it into Laptop or PC via a CARD READER or CARD ADAPTER let windows find the card after that open "MiniTool Partition Recovery" and look for your SDCARD in this application. Check your card to not be partitioned, if it's so delete the partitions of the SDCARD and APPLY, after that try format the SDCARD form "MiniTool Partition Recovery". If format is successful check card space and plug it back to the phone.
If the SDCARD isn't damaged this should work.
I'll try it out.. Thank u both

oh gr8 The best policy of strontium is they replace the card directly w/o repair or any hassle..
No need of Bills or warranty card. Thats what the cc told me.. They asked me to get the card.. They will check if its original or not.
thats all .. And replacement will be done in 8-10 Days..
Was that the same procedure for u too??
i am at home due to Viralfever 100d so thought of repairing it myself..
Now, Since u mentioned they have updated the cards .. Ill get it replaced soon..
