Hi,
Today I bought a new Mini Sd Card for my htc Wizard. But when I put it into my ppc, file explorer doesn't recognize it. Formatting to Fat or Fat32 won't help.
I tried to format it with a photo camera, but no results.
When i put it into the phone, the backlight lights up..
It's not a SDHC card..
Any help is appreciated..

Maybe problem with the Card, as its still new get it replaced
Thx for the reply,
But it works perfectly in other devices.
Then you must see if other cards work in your Device if they dont then there is a problem in your Wizard. Check and tell me then i'll tell you what else you can do to run it.
I've put a 256mb card in it, and it shows up in file explorer. So it works..

It has a 2gb capacity, non hc.
I thought thr wizard supported 2 gb sd cards, right?
I have the same trouble, my existing Kingston 2GB card works just fine, I bought two more but they are not recognised by the wizard but my old one still is. The only way I could get them to be seen by the wizard is by using a Low Level Format tool from HDDGuru and having formated it with that popped the card in the wizard which asks to format it. This takes a few seconds and the card is recognised however if I take it out and put it back in again it can't be recognised... my PC can see them in its card reader...
So I figured the Wizard is very particular about how the card is set up with regards to cluster size etc. Just haven't got around to analyzing the card that works to find out the correct set up.
By the way it also might be that I am using a custom ROM and when it formats the card its not doing everything it should
Yes your right it supports 2GB and 2GB card shuld work maybe you shuld still try it getting replaced by a same model or a card of someother company. TC
@ funkycowie
That tool didn't work for me...
@ xda_haseeb
I have a 265mb mini sd card, and it works perfectly in my wizard.
Brand of the 256mb: SanDisk
Brand of the 2gb: Kingston minisd adapter
Maybe Kingston isnt supportedtry getting it replaced with a 2GB Sandisk MiniSD Adapter and then see wht happens. TC
Interesting, my card that works is a Micro SD in a Kingston MiniSD adapter that is 2GB and it works... the other two I bought are micro sd as well but came with SD only adapters and the text on the card although the same has a different serial number which could indicate that they are set up differently to the one that does work.
I have a microsd in a minisd adapter too, but it doesn't work.
I have 2 mini sd adapters, but none of them works.
I also have a micro sd card in a mini sd adapter. The phone doesn't read it at all. The card is a 1 gb kensington micro sd in a san disk adapter. The card was only 4 bucks, so I'm not to disappointed but I wish it would work.

I guess there maybe a compatibility issue b/w two different accesories i.e your using SanDisk adpter and Kingston card try both of a same company i.e both Kingston or both SanDisk. TC
I had a 2 gig no-name brand card that started throwing errors and then stopped being detected in the Wizard. For a week or so I could detect it in the card reader on my PC but not in the phone. Finally it stopped working altogether. I have seen it before. There is circuitry in the card that fails and causes this problem. The card reader I was using was simply not as selective as the Wizard and eventually the Mini-SD failed there too.
Once it failed completely there was simply no bringing it back. Since then I have paid the extra for SanDisk cards (about a dozen) and have had 1 failure that the store happily replaced. In my line of work I learned a long time ago that these cards do fail even under the best of conditions sometimes. I always recommend to anyone with card problems to simply replace a card that throws errors as soon as possible with a card recommended by the manufacturer.
so I just bought this card cause I use lots of storage space pretty quickly, My question is wtf is going on here? it just sticks on "checking for errors" and never gets past it, it mounted up once and while I was dumping files on it over USB from my computer (in usb mass storage mode) both it and my internal storage just disappeared, the copy operation failed, so I restarted the phone and I have yet to get the phone to mount it since then.
I'm running eclipse 1.3rc2, is this because of the sd flip-flop, the size of the card or the fact that it's class 10?
the card works perfectly fine in my camera, and in multiple PCs, but as soon as I stick it in my X2, it just doesn't want to work.
I noticed the stock SD card has a "bootable" partition flag, whereas this one doesn't. maybe this is my problem?
also what filesystem should I use, I run linux on my PCs so I can do whatever I want with it.
what if I just delete its partition table, put it in the phone and then let the phone format it? I've reformatted it with my PC and no dice.

When I got the 8gb card and using now it was acting weird ...would copy files when in the phone. I formatted it using the phone and it has worked fine since.
Good luck.
I can't say it will work for u but it cured the problems I had at the time.
just make sure u format the right card since in eclipse its switched around and recognized as internal in menu.
well, It took exchanging it for a class 4, and now it seems perfectly fine.
so note to self (and others)
NO CLASS 10 CARDS IN DROID X2, IT DOESN'T FN WORK!

I don't think that is true...I thought I saw plenty of users say they use them.
Mine is class 6 and works just fine
Did u try formatting from in the phone while stock? Don't know if that would make a difference at all
I didn't read one single thread from someone successfully using a class 10 card without having issues, sometimes it took a few days/weeks, it only took me one mount/dismount cycle.
besides, the class 10 cards, while having a higher sustained transfer rate, their seek times and random access times are overall slower. basically these class 10 cards are ONLY good for digital video cameras and things that don't actually utilize a filesystem.
that or they're getting cheap chinese cards that are just remarked class 6 cards, the X2 can't read and write to a class 10 fast enough resulting in data corruption, period.
Yeah im not arguing
I understand what ur saying now
I can confirm class 6 being completely fine tho
I think the "issues" I had was the file size I was trying to transfer(4gb)
I don't think it's the class rating but the capacity. In my experience 32 gb cards just aren't as reliable as smaller-capacity ones. Perhaps it's a consequence of packing too many memory cells into such a small form factor, I don't know, but I've had three 32 gb micro-SD cards fail on me since the beginning of the year, whereas not a single 16 gb card has failed me yet.
I just dumped 4.8gb of crap on it, over usb and it took it like a champ, it's also significantly faster than the stock 8gb card in terms of mounting, remounting, scanning my media and even opening up fileexpert is faster.
class 6 i'm sure is fine, probably the best balance, but I can even take HD video straight to this card with no frame dropping or glitching. it's currently playing hd video on my hotel room TV right off the SD card w/ no issues (the stock 8gb couldn't do that)
Ha. Mine came wit a 2gb class 2 sdcard ...
Wait...now that I think about it.. I had bought a droid pro initially. It had a screen issue...I took it back and paid extra to get the x2. Then I told em I didn't wanna lose my pics/video I had taken and he switched the cards. So I guess he basically just kept the one I wax supposed to get instead of moving my data to the new one....prick...

is it ok to buy 16 gb sd card for my mini not pro
i mean that the won't be slow ....etc ?
it is ok, i have an x10mini too, and i'm using a 16gb sdcard in it, and it's working very fine and fast, so just go buy it and enjoy
Here another 16GB SD card user.
For me its perfect, I have no feeling that it slow down or something
i got a new 16GB SDHC card couple of weeks ago, but since then my phone sometimes restarted itself, and some apps is running very bad, particularly Waze (it's a GPS programm). I tried to format the card with the PC and phone also, but still same results. I had a 2GB card, and had no any problem it all...
Any ideas what may be the problem?
Thank you in advance
I'm using 16 GB card, and my phone is speed. It's no slowest xD
Can you tell me please what card exactly do you use?
Thank you

Thanx!
This one i already had, and sucessfully returned to ebay top-seller. I ordered kingstone, i hope it will be better
I have A-data 16GB sdhc 10 class and it is working perfectly, even with apps on sd.
In case someone need a check about SD working
I have a SD 16GB Kodak class 4 and it works perfectly on my Mini
Problem with SanDisk 16GB microSDHC
I also already had a 16 GB SanDisk, I bought it on amazon. I'm still trying to return it, my phone restarts every time I try to format it.
i tryed a sandisk 16gb too but restarts alwasy
after buying a new one from kingston class 4 it works perfectly
sry for bad english
I have A-data 16GB sdhc 10 class and when i copy my files and i extract from the pc my phone don't recognize my memory and when i insert one more time and say my pc that the memory don't have format and i have to format one more time. Someone can i help me?
try formatting the block size to 32KB
An sd card does not need to be formated only hdd do... What couldve hapend is that your boot sector got screwed up. Try putting your sd card in an card reader and connect it to the pc. On windows 7 go to start type cmd and hit enter. Then type: chkdsk /X /F /A:, where A: is your card reader. Hit enter and wait. I revived a couple SD Card by this method. Without losing any data!
***Ignore this***
Edited for clarity.
I have a Class4 16 gb card. Worked well so far.
Guys - Can we lose the personal criticism here - this thread is bang on the money with a problem I'm really struggling with and I'd hate for the thread just to become a shouting match.
My daughters x10 Mini Pro (running latest paul-xxx version of CM7) is just refusing to play nicely with a Sandisk 8Gig Class 4 SDHC which has prviously worked perfectly in a Samsung Genio.
On the 8 Gig card music jumps between tracks as you are listening , apps moved to SD Card refuse to run, photos save OK and will open once in Gallery but then the jpgs get corrupted and cannot be reopened on the phone or when transfered to a PC.... and to crown it all I get random reboots/freezes.
If I drop back to an old Kingston 2 Gig Micro-SD (ie non-SDHC) everything on the phone works fine and yet when I format the 8Gig card on my PC, there are never any errors and I can then copy files on and off the card (via the card reader in the PC) multiple times with no issues.
Is this just a somewhat more extreme example of other peoples experiences or would you suspect my micro SD is b*ggered?
I suspect that this "quality" Sony phone is just so sensitive to SDHC cards that I need to get one which others can confirm works reliably and stick to it.
For now my daughter is content to run with the 2 Gig card and have a stable, working phone but obviously she'd like to carry more than a dozen Albums and Apps at any time.
Any advice?

The card may be failing. I had 2 class 10 cards fail on me. Try a class 4. They seem to be working good for me.

The card was replaced with a new 16GB Kingston class 10.
After a week the second card died entirely, it was not recognized on any device.
Could my phone be the fault?
I switched now to Kingmax 16GB class 10.
Hope this will be alright

Wow. It could be. If you are overclocking try disabling that. It may be causing too much heat. Also I know that pulling the card out without unmounting it through settings will cause it to apear damaged. I had to run a disk check on my pc a few times to fix one card.
I'm getting issues with card being lost when moving a file & sometimes after attached via usb to computer.
When happens card shows up as zero space & need unmount & remount.
Card is a kingston 64gb class 10 sdxc & is very new as bought with intention of using in this phone. card seems faultless when in reader on computer & also works fine in my old hd2 !
I assume poor firmware/hardware huawei end to blame !! kind of seeing why it cheap to buy now as everything worse than my old hd2 on wm6.5.5 lol ...
Any others experienced sd card issues ?
Nope.... Using phone since it came out... No issue whatsoever

I was getting Google Play (RPC: 7 ) errors and it ended up being sdcard related.
I changed to a Samsung EVO 64gb, formatted it with the phone and it's working great.
The problem card was a Sandisk Ultra 64gb that worked perfect in my HTC M9
^ your second person who said samsung evo card worked better in the huawei.
I'm reformatting the kingston one more time & if plays up again will have buy a samsung for testing :-/
Hard blame the kingston card as works faultless in everything else ! ...

I was having some problems with "SD card unexpectedly removed" when using the SD card I've had a couple years but I replaced it with one of the exact same spec/type/size and haven't had another SD problem since. I'm betting it's your card.
card works fine in every other device I tested it in (prolonged testing too).
I will try another card as it may not like this one for some reason !

Honor 5x won't recognize my Samsung Evo 64gb, but my Samsung S4 will.
Tried it in an adapter, but ubuntu cannot access it... Not sure what the issue is yet.
Issue appears 5x is bit fussy on cards, sloppy hardware/firmware !
I got my Kingston changed by retailer & replacement just same yet works in everything else A1 .
I went my Huawei retail store as only 5 minute walk up road in my nearest mall, told them issue & tried card in 2 display handsets & had same issue within 15 minutes of testing. There answer was only use 32gb card :-/ not helpful.
I will be trying a samsung, sandisk & Toshiba card this week from 2 friends so interesting see results.
You get what pay for & seems 5x no exception, it cheap & hardware/firmware also cheap minimal effort .

I had problems with a Sandisk Ultra 64gb and replaced it with a 64gb Samsung Evo and it works fine. did you try formatting the card with the phone under settings / storage.
Edit: I see your computer don't see it , you most likely got a bad one and need a refund / replacement

It's about 3 years old. not sure why it still works in the samsung, but i had another 64 gb laying about. Using that one in the 5x untill i figure out whats wrong with the samsung
As I mentioned on the other thread. 2 X PNY 128 GB had problems with this honor 5X but its work fine with my LGs and Windows 10 laptop.

Edited.... a new PNY 128GB sent by PNY replacement worked fine. I think during that time when I have that 2 PNY card, I was testing the TWRP nandroid backup which messed up both the SD cards. So blamed that TWRP.

My phone worked for 5 days, now from yesterday it doesn't recognize the SD (Sandisk 128Gb SDSQUNC-128G-GZFMA), the message ""SD card Error" appears and no one the oher SD I tried works (Sandisk 8Gb, Toshiba 16GB, Sandisk 4Gb & Samsung 2Gb). All this SD have been tried & worked on a Samsung S2.
Don't know what other to try.
On Monday I'll try to give it back to commercial.
Bah !
This most likely won't help or isn't the problem... But the SD will not mount to PC if you don't unlock your phone first.
Meaning, if you ain't looking at your home screen, the PC will not mount the SD card.
Just throwing this out there, as I've panicked over my SD card because of this.
