Help-Storage card keeps disappearing - Touch Pro, Fuze General

My storage card disappears from time to time and now it disappeared permanently, the card is not broken because it still shows up on my laptop.
I read lots of posts here on the forum, but is there a solution somewhere?
thank you !!!
De
I just enabled the powermanagement again and it showed back up. -.-
This is depressing me because it is the opposite of what I did last time.

Try setting different poll interval. I don't remember how, where and with what... search, you got the keyword

I've got the exact same problem with an mda vario iv, I was posting right now when I saw this. I've already tried setting different pnp delay in registry (as explained here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=543879) and didn't change. What's this thing about power management?

I'm also using the Vario IV
well you download advanced config 3.3
here:http://www.touchxperience.com/en/advanced-configuration-tool/downloads.html
and install it on your phone , then after u installed it you need to do a softreset (it will prompt u to). Reboot and launch the program, under power management the first tab is SD card"something", you can switch it on or off.
I saw that when I cant find my card and I switch it on or off (depending how I left it last time) my card returns in my explorer.

Actually I've just changed the 4gb microsdhc card with a 2 gb microsd (non hc) and so far it's working flawlessly... a bit too soon to say it was just a bad card but i'm optimistic. Thank you for the advice about power management, if I'll have problems I'll try that as well

well, I hope it works for you, unfortunately I need that 4 gb, otherwise I havent got enough space to install my navigator in

heh, me too actually, but I hope the problem was only with that ugly 4 gb lexar! I'll go for a kingstone or a sandisk next time!

There have been several post about Class 6 Micro SDHC cards, mainly from Adata and Transcend, not working with Raphaels. I have an 8 Gb Class 6 card from Adata that had the same problem. I switched it with a 6 Gb Kingston Class 4 I had in my camera and it's been working great since last month. I haven't found a fix yet. Raphael's don't seem to like Class 6 cards.

To my knowledge it isn't the card but rather the card slot...I never had a problem with mines until I got a replacement Fuze do to radio failure...now with this replacement when my phone shifts in anyway my card will disappear, then with another shift re-appear. It got to be so annoying that I jus took my card out and place it back in when I need it. I will have to call AT&T to get another or maybe the Tilt II on the 18th
P.S. I have a Sandisc 8GB Class 2

Well, of to the shop I guess -.-

Just gone to the shop for a change, I've taken a sandisk 4gb class 2 this time, and it works like a breeze! Good luck if you're going to change yours too

Well, I went to the shop and bought a sandisk class 2, 8gb card, and its been running like a charm for 5 hours now. Fortunately a buddy of mine still needed a 8 gb card for his samsung and he was gladly to take the class 6 over from me for the same price I paid.
Problem solved.
btw maybe there should be a sticky where it explains that class 6 cards dont work with the Touch Pro.

Touch Pro corrupting my 16GB and 8GB MicroSDHC Cards... I´m the only one ?

Hello !
Someone got the same problem ?

corrupted my 8GB Sandisk Ultra II after 3 days of use.
The card could be read INSIDE of my Raphael but not on my PC with different card readers. This would be a minor problem but my Raphael also destroyed randomly files on the card too.
I thought the Micro SDHC Card was defective and send it back.
Now I own a Sandisk 16GB Card and it got also courrupted in like 2 days of use.
Some file from my *Notes* was thrashed and other files followed.
Raphael will try to open the file and then stay busy. After like 20 seconds a message containing "There is not enough memory " pop up... (150MB free ram should be enough to open a 2 kb Notes-file )
Wierd thing -> My *old* Sandisk 6 GB MicroSDHC Card I own for more than half a year now works flawlessly... (Till yet )
Someone here got the same experiences ?
Someone got some advice for me ?
I read something about updated SD sdrivers from member Tucan which he cooked into a german stock rom. Are they any good for me ?
Is there a Rom which should solve my problems ?
Help will be really appreciated !!
im sorry but the new memory you have must be fake, that explains why it works with your old mem, and why after sending it back, the same place sent you another fake.
Oh lord here we go, I just ordered my 8gb MicroSDHC card from newegg since the Fuze will be out soon I hope this isn't a common problem.
I corrupted my 8GB once, but by my own fault. I was in the middle of a transfer and was connected as a hard drive, not through activesync, and hit the power button which disconnected it from the computer. I hooked it up as a hard drive again, went into windows and reformatted the MicroSD... No issues from then on.

I ordered both cards from completly different places, so that is unlikely.
They did work normaly (some days) even on my PC, so I guess it is my Raph which corrupted them

I´m always *releasing* my harddrives/cards (on my PC) with the icon in the lower right corner to be save from what you experienced.
Oh man. I have the 16GB Card sitting here and cant use it... I will try it in my old XDA Trion (aka Hermes) for the next days ...
Anyway thanks for your replys !
Someone else has some thoughts about the problem ?
Maybe it has something to do with all the powersaving *features* beeing enabled through -Advanced Config 3.2- and -Diamond Tweak- ?
Well I'm using the same rom as you and was using an 8gb Sandisk card until I got a 16gb Sandisk card and both work flawlessly I'm afraid. I have also applied the power saving tweaks you mention with no ill effect.
using 8gb for about a month now, no problems at all.
Oh, I should mention I've heard many people talk about how there were a lot of Tilts that corrupted MicroSD cards. It was a flaw from the factory, apparently affected a number of them. I wouldn't be surprised of HTC saw some of the same issues with the Fuze, knowing all of the issues they've had already.
My 8gb card works just fine.
For reference, I'm using an A-DATA Class-6 8gb microSD purchased from NewEgg. Cheap, fast, reliable, perfect.
16gb bog standard San Disk Micro SD is working fine at the moment.
Formatted using Panasonic's SD Formatter as I corrupted it before I even put it in the Pro.
my 8GB works fine too
Maybe if everybody posts the brand name of their cards we can determine if this has something to do with the issues.
I remember with my Hermes I had to get a specific brand and produced from a certain plant to not have any issues. I still have my Kingston Micro SD from the Japan plant with no issues.
Using 8Gb and 16Gb of Sandisk with no probs on my Touch Pro.
Hi,
I may be barking up the wrong tree here but are you sure you have not enabled the Encryption setting under Settings. This will encrypt the storage card so it can only be read from the phone. Removing the card and placing in a PC or Laptop would show up as corrupted.
I selected it by mistake once and it corrupted my folder tree and showed garbage.
Not saying this is what is up but is worth looking at.
Personally I have a 16GB SanDisk card in my Touch Pro and it been OK. Been running for about 3 weeks now.
John
maybe the cardreaders from youre PC are not compatible with sdhc.
This is redundand and it may be opinion but im looking into buying a class 6 8gig. Is adata reliable? What company is the best in your opinions for what im looking for. Fastest?

Sandisk. Always. Forever. For my memory cards at least
FYI...
I put a 16Gb Sandisk in my TP on monday (5 days ago)... not a single problem with it and no corrupted files either.
I was previously using my 4Gb Sandisk card from my old Kaiser... which also worked perfectly fine.
Had a Sandisk 8GB card in mine, no problems. Now have a 16GB Sandisk, no problems.
For me I'll buy Sandisk, and only Sandisk, for my memory cards.
I have the very chip you described in my kaiser (class 6 a-data 8gb) runs without a problem. I've never really had much problems with microsd chips but I gotta admit I got a little worries when this thread poped up not so much about the chip but the phone itself, I've never had a bad chip in my life bought about 20 or so thus far, the a-data does well in terms of speed nothing to be excisted about but for it's class and size it holds its own.

8GB Transcend SDHC not working in Fuze

Ok, so I just bought an 8GB Transcend SDHC Class 6 from Amazon. My Fuze (with default ATT rom) won't recognize it, but my friend's Verizon Touch Pro does. It also works in my laptops SD slot with the adapter. I tried formatting it, but my phone still doesn't see it. I tried googling for help, but the only thing I found is wm5/6 having issues with SDHC. The Fuze is supposed to be compatible, right?
Is there anything you guys could would suggest? I found a SDHC.cab file, but it doesn't do anything.
-nate
also, my 2GB Kingston works fine.
I have found Transcend SDs to be iffy.
I've been using a Transcend Class 6 microSDHC card that I purchased from Newegg (with miniature USB reader) since day one with my Fuze, hasn't missed a beat. Sounds like you may just have a faulty one.
This is what I have: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820208460
same problem here, please help ..........
Using a Transcend 8GB Micro here no probs at all!! Been using for months I'd say

So here's what I tested:
I bought 2 of the Transcend 8GB C6 cards.
Neither card worked in my Fuze or my bosses Fuze.
Both cards worked in a Verizon Touch Pro.
Both cards worked in multiple Verizon 6800's.
I found a friend with a Trans 8GB CLASS 4 card, it works in my phone.
I sold one of the class 6 cards and traded the other to my friend.
Oh also mine does say C6 on it, or more specifically a 6 with a C around it!
Thanks
JFlitt
Sandisk is the only way to go..pretty cheap on Amazon
You know just for the hell of it, one of you guys w/ the 8gb card should dl and try the Panasonic SD formatter program. Google it. I have one that just says V2.
I had weird issues w/ a 4 gig card, reformatted it numerous times, w/ numerous programs nothing worked until this panasonic program i found.
SDFormatter V.2
My 8GB Transcend Class 6 works great in my FUZE. What I found interesting is that I bought an 8GB Transcend in November for $16 and another in January for $15 but now they cost $21! How does the price RISE $6 in 6 months? I think there is something fishy going on in flash memory prices. They had working 32GB prototype cards a year ago yet they still are not out.
it could be putting the storage card at the bottom of the list in file explorer. you made sure it wasnt there by looking at the storage card tab under memory settings right?
Trying it Now

I've got the same card with the same problem. The card actually worked for the first time, but after flashing a new ROM onto the device, the storage card was no longer accessible from the phone itself while it is from card reader. Formatting does nothing.
I had an issue like this once with SD cards on a Dell Axim but it turned out to be the fault of the WMDRM folder--which isn't the case here since the card is empty now.
Is there some other method in which the device locks the card?
Just wanted to throw my two cents in. I bought two Transcend 4gb class 6 SDHC cards, both of which worked find in my computer and camera, but neither worked in my Fuze. I ended up buying a Sandisk card which is working famously in my device. However, it is only a Class 4 card... Hey, as long as I can save and playback video to it without interruption, I'm happy.

So it stopped working after flashing a new ROM? Have you tried going back or flashing a different ROM? It could be a problem with the ROM if the problem started happening after you flashed a new ROM.

I've gone back to that ROM with no success and on to different ROMs with no luck. Changing Device ID doesn't seem to help.
I will try that format utility when I get home.
My 64MB Sandisk works fine however.
The only way to access the 8GB Transcend card is to install wm5torage and use the phone as a reader, so it's not a hardware issue. The storage card itself cannot be viewed in File Explorer/TC or through ActiveSync--basically WM refuses to acknowledge its existence.
No deal with the Panasonic format program.
I'll just use the card in my Garmin for MP3s instead.
The card just arrived from Amazon for me, and it isn't working. I should've searched this up before buying the card. Still no fixes?
i have trancend microsdhc class 6, 8gb and not working in my raphael (asia wwe stock rom)
is there any chance that upgrade rom to the newer one / flash custom rom will fix this issue? panasonic sd formater didn't help.
i have this card 1month and it work ok for me. one day card crash i get new (same) but device don´t see this card. i try new rom, panasonic sd format but no change.
i try 8gb sandisk class 4 and kingston class 6 and this cards works ok.

Micro SD card not detected

So today i brought a 8gb Transcend Class 6 mico sd card for my raphael. So i went back home and try it then i found it not detected on the file explorer but it says expansion slot in use when i go to Settings>About. Thanks in advance.
[email protected]
Transcend is not recomended by HTC. i am also having same problem with my SD card which is made by Transcend (4GB capacity). it detects when you put it in phone for a longer time, but you can not write/save/copy anything in it. it will say FILE CAN NOT COPY, MAKE SURE THE PHONE IS PROPERLY CONENCTED AND SOURCE FILE IS NOT MOVED BLA....BLA... BLA...
when i checked with HTC team, they advised me to use micro SD from SANDISK.
well the weird thing is when i insert the card on my friends phone(HTC TYTN 2) it detects it instantly after inserting it in. But when i insert it on my phone it doesn't work, btw i also tried another card from my friend, it a sandisk 4gb and it worked. hmm this seems top be a uncommon issue.
I ahve the SAME exact problem with the 8GB Transcend Class 6 Micro SD that I just bought for my phone. I've had no issues at all with the 4GB Transcend Class 6 card that I currently have. On the other hand, I had a 4GB Sandish Class 6 that would not work in my Raphael but would work just fine in my Kaiser.
Appearently the card worked randomly but i can't copy any file to the card for some reason.
look for something called SDformatter by panasonic i had similar troubles with a couple sd cards till i found this program.
they all work now in any phone/device.
Is there any specific setting to set in the program Panasonic formating program? Erase enable or whatever? I had my SD card working for about 2 or 3 days and now its not detected again.
I have similar my 8GB does not get recognized and if does it's only for a matter of minutes then corrupts but my 2GB reads fine, but the 8GB is fine in Kaiser already used the SDformatter to which makes it read till corrupts again within minutes...
Going to try some other cards out in local shop before purchase will take laptop to transfer data while there.

I have read in a lot of post that Transcend 8GB class 6 card have problems to be recognized by Rapahel.
I also have one. On my Kaiser worked well.
With stock rom it wasn't recognized by Raphael; with Energyrom it is recognized, but i used for few minutes, because i feared that something bad could happen..after reading all these post.
I usually use a Kingston 2gb card.
We were unlucky buying these cards...

Transcend 16GB SDHC Class 10 card

Bought a Kingston 16GB SDHC Class 10 card for my Desire a while ago, and found out it is not a happy match. Simply too unreliable. Went back to the good ol' trusted Transcend 8GB SDHC Class 6 card.
Anyone got any experience with the Transcend 16GB SDHC Class 10 card on the Desire?
Hi,
I have a Kignston µSDHC 16Go class 10 and I'm very happy with it. What do you mean with "unreliable ?"
My device was becoming noticably slower with this card instead of faster, and I got read errors continuously in apps like media players, Astro File Explorer en Root Explorer. Possibly it was becoming slower because of the read errors.
A chkdisk on Windows 7 continuously gave errors and a chkdsk on EXT4 Recovery sometimes was even unable to fix errors on it.
Reformatting only helped for a short while, then the read errors would reoccur.
So I finally gave up on it and trashed it.
I read everywhere that the Desire is very picky when it comes to memory cards.
Well, it seems like your kingston card was dead, it shouldn't give any error on a chkdsk.
Did you know you can get it exchanged from Kingston under warranty ? It has a lifetime warranty. I had to do it for mine because the first one I had was defective from the beginning, I couldn't format it at all.
Trust me, I have this card and it works flawlessly since I got it exchanged !

I did exchange it already, the 1st one truly was crap, far worse than the 2nd one, the 2nd one was slightly better but still crap. So I decided to ditch Kingston altogether.
Lexar cards
I've had good luck with a lexar class 10 32gb cards. No one I know has any transcend cards though.
I can't use Transcend micro SDHC 16 GB class 4- I had to pull the battery almost always after using an app that accessed SD (camera, gallery, music player etc)
I've found that samsung has been a dream with good speeds and no issues (as of yet...). As for the Kingston i got a class 4 card and that worked fine for me.

I don't know what cards would be compatible with this phone, but in the past I've found that formatting a card on my PC has sorted non-working ones out on my phone. Have you tried that?
Yes i've tried formatting it in all possible formats.

known bug - microSD not working
According to several Nokia.com discussion threads, this is a known bug with the 820. The card might work for a few minutes, but soon goes corrupt. The card can be re-formatted OK in a PC, and phone will recognise it again (but only for a few minutes). If you've changed the settings to store photos etc on the card, the camera will also stop working when the card goes corrupt (because it can't store the pics anywhere).
Apparently a patch is due one day to fix this...

I can confirm this through experience. Pretty bad issue since the phone only has 8GB of internal storage.
I have tried the following cards and have had the same exact experience:
Sandisk Ultra 64 Class 10
Kingston 32 Class 6 (I think)
Trancend 16 Class 10
For me, the SanDisk Ultra UHS-1 with 64 GB works fine WHEN I reformatted it on the PC to fat32 with this tool: fat32-format.softonic.de
Before, the phone recognized it, but crashed and I couldn't move files to it. After formatting, no more problems
I have this card here
SanDisk Ultra 64 GB MicroSDXC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card with Adapter (SDSDQU-064G-AFFP-A)
Worked as soon as it was inserted to the phone and I have several videos and photos on it. 58.X GB formatted capacity. I would not recommend using a card that is NOT listed as compatable with the phone.

is there any solution to move apps to sd card??

TurboTuck, thanks for the info.
Have you loaded the microsd with more than 10Gb? Issues usually occurs when more than this amount is loaded to the card.
...mine is working perfectly with a 16 GB class 4 microSD sandisk card.
Anyone tried a 32Gb class 4 microsd?
Just to throw in my .02.. I reflashed my 820 last night and the SD card is still working fine.. It is an 8 gig class 4 I believe. I have a 16 gig class 10 somewhere that I will need to try.
I'm still holding off on really celebrating, though.
Kingston cards work always for me
16GB class 10 here
I bougth a Sandisk 16Gb class 4 and it´s working perfect.
I already loaded it with 12Gb and has no lag at all.
I have 32Gb class 10 from SanDisk. It works perfectly not in 1308 and former.
