sd card problems - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

hi!!
can anyone help me with my sd card problem??
my mda cant read it...
when it starts it recognizes it and asks if i want to format it and of course i say yes and that is it...
it says it is formated but cant recognize it..
what should i do???

Hi,
I also have the same problem with my MDA Compact and 2gb sandisk ultra II.
So if somebody could please provide help, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I've had the same prob with an 2Gb MMC, and i fix it by unscreawing a bit the top 2 screws of the mainboard (have to open the upper back part). The ideea is to push the card slot backword, until it reads the card correctly, anddoing this with the battery cover on place, to be able to power on your device after uncreawing a bit, to test the rezult. By doing this I fixt also some reading problemsa that i had with other card (when paying movies from the card, it would freez the move until I would pull out the card and put it back again). Hope to be of help.

Try not to use a fast SD card , I still have one 133x can't be use with the same problem , I am using a 40x 2G SD card , work great

Bluetooth Settings ??

Dear all,
I notice the following problems with "Bluetooth Settings screen". When I click on the bluetooth icon on the extreme right hand corner it would take from 5 to 20 seconds for the setting screen to come up. This will only happen if I have an SD card (Apacer 256MB) inserted in the SD slot. I have SanDisk SD Wifi card, even with this inserted it would take between 5 to 10 second to bring up the bluetooth setting screen. This happens for both the initial firmware as well as the latest firmware from official XDA II site. FYI, without any SD device inserted the bluetooth setting can be activated instantaneously. This problem can be replicated time and again so it is not something that is caused by any program installed (tested all that even after cold reset). Does anyone know of a solution to the problem? Thanks.

Its likely that something on the card is slowing your XDA down..
What apps are installed onto the card ? if you have an app thats constantly being run from the card it will slow the system down, maybe not as much as you say but it does have a noticable effect with large apps.
My Bluetooth options pretty much come up instantly unless i have a few programs running, in which case it sometimes takes a couple of seconds or more..
Maybe your SD card is faulty. If so, your XDA might be constantly trying to read something from the card and keep hitting an error which isnt made known to the user. What id try is to backup the SD card, reformat it and then see if it happens again. :wink:
Hi,
I have no application running from the SD card. All of them are datafiles, mostly pictures, wmv and microsoft reader files. BTW, how do I format the SD card?. Thanks.
Regards,
Kueh.
I dont think theres an option to do it within the XDA2.
You'd need a card reader or someone who owns one which can reformat the card. If you dont want to by one or know anyone with one, go to your local PC shop, they might do it for you. :wink:
I'm having exactly the same problem.... accept for it only happens when turning on the XDAII - if I do remove the SD card then the problem does go away!!!
Is anyone else having this same problem with the BT Settings ??
You can format your SD card with a ppc application called XDA-storagetools (do a google search)
I suspect it takes longer for the BT radio to start when you have a card inserted may be because the BT software is looking for a BT device in th SD slot??
I have the same problem too...If i want to reformat my SD card through card reader, do i just simply format it in the like of formatting, for example, drive c: ? I mean, just 'right click' on the SD card and choose 'format' ? Or do i need to use a specific software ? Thanx...
You cannot format a SD card from a card reader - windaz don't do it.
You need special software, try a google search for xda storage tools
Ok...thanx a lot. By the way, how do we know that a slower BT settings is affected by SD card ? Just my curiosity :}
I don't believe formating the sd card will make any difference.... just having the sd card inserted into the XDAII is enough to cause the problem.
Could it have something to do with when the XDAII is turned on, it has to read/regonsie the sd card first... and the BT settings has to wait for this to happen??

Problem with my O2 XDA II

I use O2 XDA2 with SD Card 512MB. My problem is that: I plug SD card in my O2 anh my O2 can find the SD Card. Anh is similar if I you Microsoft Active Sync. But sometimes,when I use data contained in my Card, my O2 can't recognize my SD card. I only use 15% of my Card's size but in setting it's alway 100%. Sometimes, when I play games or listen musices which are installed in my SD Card, all data in my SD card suddenly disappear. So I think that, the problem may be the tangential point between my O2 anh my Card is not good.
How can I do to solve this problem? I wish, you can help me. Thanks very much!!!
P/s: May be I can type something wrong, but those all I can to describle my prolem . :roll:
i think your sd card has a problem....if its still under warranty, return it. try removing your sd card then replace the dummy sd(the black/blank one) when charging coz i already experienced this and after doing so, my sd card works! hope this fixes your problem

I read that when you active sync, a file or two or more suddenly appears in SD card called something like "ignoredoc.xxx" (i forgot the complete filename and extension namem, but it sounded like that). You would need to delete it, or them, and see the result.

SD Card problems

I have this strange problem.
today suddenly my sd card stoped working. so the first thing i suspected was that my sd card was broke but it turned out that my sd card was working fine but my himalaya doesnt show show the contents of the sd card.
if i check on my hima i see that the expansion slot is in use. so it knows that the sd card is inserted.
if i put in my sd card or pull it out the screen lights up again so that meens that the contacts are still intact.
i tested my card in my cardreader no problems. i tried another card still the same issue. i formatted the card didnt help either.
i already flashed a new rom. i cleaned all the contacts just in case that was the problem.
i checked all of the topics on this forum about this problem but it turned out that all of there sd cards where broke and that is not the issue here.
so i hope some one else can help me because i am desperate at the moment.
This may sound stupid but, do you use "WM5 Storage" ? Maybe you forgot to disable it after using it ? I have already been in this case, and this would be the reason why you can't read your card.
Even if you flash a new rom, if you forget to do it the right way (cleaning the registry hive and formating integrated storage), settings may still be there, and that would be why it does not solve your problem.
Try loading the "WM5 Storage" program and check if it is activated. If so, just disable it
I hope this helps...
i think that i have the same problem, cause im using kingston 2 gig sd card.. i have formated the disk drive. and the problem is my hima doesnt detect it after 5 minutes i play something in the sd card... its my 3 sd card ive change, i thought the card is faulty but when reading with card reader it has no problem at all.. im confused... btw im using wm6.1 from syed ather...

There are many reasons.
What I have observed, sometimes, it's because of the battery. There are some memory problems when you buy a new battery, actually, the warning is written on the battery pack.
So, before you buy, try to explore your folders if the storage card is visible. If not, ask for another stock of battery.
Sometimes, the battery is low and maybe the system blocks the usage of the sd card.
Sometimes, you got to check your folders via active, maybe there is such a file with a filename/s "ignore". I just forgot the whole filename but it definitely is read like that in a way. Delete it/them.
Or sometimes you need to softreset or clean your card slot or reformat the card. I just don't have any idea how you can clean them.
With regards to wm5torage, it has options, when checked hides the storage folder icon, and even sometimes erase all your storage card files. So be careful of using the options.
I use a 4G card on Atom Life, running WM 6.1. It will cause the system slowing down a lot after soft reset. Try to open \start menu\program\games (I have some games installed on card), it takes several minutes to load the menu. However, once complete, it will run very fast next time. It is ok when using a 1G or 2G card anyway.
I wonder if someone has a solution for it?
nothing

[Q] My sd card suddenly doesn't work anymore

This evening my phone(desire hd) suddenly said there was no sd card plugged in. When i tried it on my pc, it didnt notice a sd card was plugged in (it normally would) i hope that someone can help me out. My other 512 mb card does work but i want my 8gb back to life. I would really appriciate a solution.
You might need to fully format your sdcard. Hope you dont have very important files in it
if it's only solution, i dont care about losing stuff, but i can't even see the sd card present in either my laptop or my mobile phone (I tried my phone, my mom's and my brother's)
in short: how can i format it?

[Q] ACER LIQUID E - 16gb card "checking for errors".....

Hey all.
FIrst off I dont recommend this phone. haha, that being said...
I just bought a 16gb microsd card for it. I was able to install it and transfer a bunch of tunes over. Then when I disconnected it from the computer, it has a little sd card icon with a sprocket at the top left of the screen and says "checking for errors". As a result, I dont have access to the info on the sd card > music contacts photos etc.
Its been 12 hours or so and this status has not changed.
Can anyone shed any light on this issue? Has it "farted" or do I just have to wait...
Thanks.
Have you tryed turning the device off taking the battery and SD card out then putting it all back and turning it back on, had issues with my phone not recognizing my SD before and it worked for me, just give it a try and see.

Thanks, but tried that many times...
I did try removing the battery and card multiple times to no avail.
I even sacrificed my programs etc through a hard reset. As soon as the reset completed, I have the same notification about the sd card.
Some details...
When I first inserted the 16gb SDHC card, the phone acknowledge its presence and I formated the card in the phone. It said there was over 15gb available... all fine...
I then was able to que it up with my pc through the USB cable and transfer about 8 gbs of music to the phone... transfer when fine.
Upon removing the phonne, it started with this "preparing sd card, Checking for errors" nonsense.
I am firmly convinced that there ACTUALLY is no SDHC support on these Acer Liquid E phones. My old 2 gb card that came with the phone works just fine and is back in the phone now. My only other option is to buy a 4 gb card and see if that will word fine, as 4 gb is not considered SDHC. then step up again to a 8 gb card (SDHC) and see what happens.
Does anyone else have a SDHC card in there Acer Liquid E? Does it work?
There is also NO help from Fido or Acer to work through issues...
Really makes me want to go back to the iPhone........ grrrrrrrrr....
Make sure that you formatted it to FAT32 first of all and does the card still connect to the computer using a card reader ? Why don't you try formatting it on your liquid by going onto storage and then unmounting it then format.

Thanks... no go though. At wits end...
Thanks for your attention!
When formatting in the phone, it doesnt allow you the choice to format specifically in FAT32 or other. I can only assume it is formatting in the proper system.
As for mounting and unmounting (what I feel this phone has been literally doing to me for the 6 months i've had it.lol)... as the sd card was stuck in this "checking for errors" sequence I had no access to mount or unmount the card or reformat again. These options were simply greyed out and not accessable.
I have not placed it into a card reader to reformat through my PC. I will try this step next and see what happens. I will have to find a card reader, or perhaps plug it into my camera as the card came with an sd adapter... see if that route will work.
Regardless. extremely user non-friendly phone here in the Acer Liquid E.
