Hi all..
I've been using a TwinMOS 2GB x66 cad for 2 months now, and rarely I had the problem of disappearing storage card, but a simple SR or inserting the card again solved the problem.
Since a couple of hours, the symptom has come back, but now nothing solves it I've done a dozen of SR and inserted the card several times, but still the same problem: some folders are empty, and others are written in strange letters. the card isn't actually disappearing at all, ilauncher still shows its correct size, but all folders are corrupted.
I have the feeling that all this happened after installing the free medical program EPOCRATES, since only this program's folder was viewable in the program files folder on the storage card, and all others simply disappeared. Of course uninstalling the software didn't help
Any idea guys???
Thanks in advance.
Did you try to install this cab. It's for the htc p3300 but it's work too for the htc p3600 ...
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcp3600
Isn't it strange that this patch has been published by HTC only mentionning the pb on P3300 and not ont the P3600 ?
Are you sure applying it on a P3600 is safe ?
Yes, i am...I apply it to mine and it's work fine... I didn't have some problems with my mini-sd card but with my sim+ (128 Mo) and now it's more stable !!
And as you can see the link i put is for the htc p3600.
This cab works also with the htc :
- S310
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcs310
- S710
http://www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545&device=htcs710
This has been posted before in various threads, but just to repeat:
The cab mentioned is for the Artemis/P3300. It installs one file to \windows: omap850_sdhc.dll, which is the SD driver for a device with a TI OMAP 850 processor.
It will have no effect, positive or negative, to install it on a device with a Samsung processor, except wasting 42K of space.
So why the support of HTC in this differents links (3600, s310, s710) refers to it ?? And it's fact that my sim+ is more stable now !! Not to bother you ... just to understand !!

Actually they don't really. This has also been explained before in other posts, but here goes again:
If you go to www.europe.htc.com and navigate to support for P3300, you can find faq 545, which relates to the 'P3300 SD card enhancement', and when you've found that one, the URL in the address will be: www.europe.htc.com/support/faq.html?id=545
If you now go and add e.g. '&device=htcp3600' to the end of the URL and press enter, then you will get the same faq, but it will look like it's from the P3600 support, which is not really true; it's just a 'less fortunate' behaviour by the web site.
Faq 545, 'P3300 SD card enhancement', really belongs to the P3300 support area, and nowhere else.

I'm sure it's correct when you say so, but if it's caused by putting omap850_sdhc.dll in your \windows directory, then it's nothing short of a miracle.
Okay...thanks !

Thanks guys for the replies, but I guess we went a little bit off-topic.
I understand that the patch mentioned above won't work. Is there any other solution to this issue, apart from formatting it again??
unfortunately, I forgot to move my SPB Backup file from the miniSD to my PC, so I lost even that file my bad
I would like to mention again how it happened: most presumably after installing the program EPOCRATES. Can this help??
Thanks again
You are far from being the first to have a problem like this with a SD card on a Trinity, and I'm afraid there is no easy cure.
Did you try and put the card in a card reader and see if it looked OK here?
If you can read it with a card reader, then make a backup (copy) to your PC, reformat it and restore the copy before putting it back in the Trinity, and see how it looks now.

I tried that, but same strange characters are also shown on my PC using the SD adapter. there is even a 4GB eek file in the root directory of the card. everything so strange.
Guess that you will have to do a reformat if possible.
If there is something on the card that you really want to salvage before you do the reformat, then you could try to do this with a file recovery utility.

Actually the Spb backup file would be really helpful Do u recommend any program for trying to recover it??
Thanks
I'm using an old release of WinHex myself.
WinHex is not free, but a trial can be downloaded from here: http://winhex.com/winhex/index-m.html
I'm not sure what limitations there might be in the unlicensed version, but I would recommend giving it a try before looking elsewhere.
I don't have any recent experience with other recovery utilities, but there are a number of them to be found here: http://www.download.com/3120-20_4-0.html?tg=dl-20&qt=recovery&tag=srch
Great, after trying to recover files with Winhex (unsuccessfully), The device doesn't recognize the card anymore, and now it requires a format I give up.
Is there anything I should make to prevent future problems like this??
First of all, should I format it as FAT16 or FAT32?
should I format it on the device or using a card reader?
should I use a specific program for formatting or the default windows application?
Thanks again

Try this - found from the Artemis forum.
It's a preventive measures - not one that can save your already messed up SD.

If you are still looking for a recovery solution, a friend had a similar incident with the 2GB Toshiba SD card on his 818 Pro just last week, and, not counting MP3s stored on the card (which he can restore from his CD library), I managed to recover for him some 90% of the files intact using Ontrack's EasyRecovery Professional.

Since I installed the official HTC GPS upgrade ROM I have had no problems anyway.
for some reason my G1 is no longer reading the sd card. even when hooked up to windows it is not seen. is there anyway i can update through fastboot and if so how do i go about doing that. any help would be greatly appreciated. i have search all over the forum but cant find anything to help me. im lost right now.
First of all you should choose better topics.
Try reformatting the sdcard.
ive tried that. the sd card reads fine when i put it in the computer sd reader it my g1 thats not seeing it.
Is it the origional card that came with the G1??
Have you tried using another SD card in the phone? If that doesn't work - it's possible something messed up with the reader.
Although I don't think this would do anything : You may want to try wiping the phone. Ofcourse back it all up, if you want to save your apps and data.
thanks for all the help but my g1 sd card reader is not reading ive tried 4 other sd i have and none work. but i forgot i did a nandroid back up like a month ago, just totally forgot so i got the .img files i needed im going to fastboot those and see what happens.
well that didnt work but i feel so dumb now because i have been racking my brain and pming people to get help and nothing worked. then all of a sudden i though, why dont i just do a back up of my girls phone and flash all the files to my phone. and of course that worked. once again thanks for all the help. and if anyone out there havent done a back up i strongly suggest you do.
hello, i was about to flash a new rom on my hd 2 and i forgot that i put a wrong sd, and i partioned my sd and now i lost everything, is there a way to recover all my files? i havent done anything to the sd since i partioned it!
edit: i did this in CWM recovery
Try google this testdisk-6.12-WIP. It can restore partition along with files in it. Or try some data recovery software,mostly they works

do you know any program that can recover all kind of files, because i need all my files
anyone? please?
Not gunna happen what do u think happens when you delete things from your trashcan

i did the partion on the phone, i heared thats it possible to recover them if i havent written any new files
Try a program like Recurva I'm not sure if it works on flash memory though.

That is only applicable for magnetic disks. And also not if you deleted the whole damned partition, created it, and reformatted it again.
That alone is worse than writing a lot of files.
Consider your files lost. Next time back them up to somewhere.
i partioned it by cwm, and thought i had the wrong sd in.
Hi Malbadawi,
I would like to suggest you that go for Stellar Data Recovery Services & Software.
For my personal experience, when I had to recover files from hard disks or flash memory (usb key/SD), my best choice is GetDataBack (you will need FAT edition, not NTFS).
Just insert your sd in a card reader and follow the step by step tutorial. Do not attempt to reformat your card if your PC doesn't see that, the app will look into it at a lower level...
btw, a 100% recovery isn't always guaranteed, as you know, [email protected]!# happens
Yes, GetDataBack is a great program, try it instead of Stellar Data Recovery. But reformat card as said. Works fine for me.
Thanks all for replies i will try them when i get back home
I am asking this again here, as my previous thread seemed to be hijacked by someone elses question!
I recently decided to root my inspire as i am no longer using it as a phone, so i thought that it would be interesting to do and fun to play around with all of the options available (i recently did the same thing on my Nook Tablet, and that was the single best decision i have made a while!). I started out researching the manual techniques to do it, but i didn't really like the high risk factor there (i really dont want to brick my phone) so i tried Ace Hack Kit. Of course, it has to download the phone from 2.3.5 to be able to work. During this process, it has me hold volume up and power twice, and every time i do that, it flashes up really quick something about holding volume up and volume down and power, but then it skips past that. Anyway, here is where my problem comes in: It says that it should reboot in to hboot, which it does, but that hboot should run a test, then prompt me to continue by pressing volume up, and then should reboot, flashing twice, and that should be the end of it. THe problem is, it does boot in to hboot, but it is just a standard hboot screen asking to recover, load bootloader, etc. When i reboot from there it just boots in to the phone as normal. I have tried 3 different SD cards, all of which work and are recognized by my PC, my other phone and my Nook tablet. I have also inserted a working sim card, just to be sure that wasnt the issue, and i still cant make it work. Does anyone have any experience with his issue, or any idea what i might be doing wrong?
Opening multiple threads on the same issue is frowned upon. Even if someone supposedly hijacked your thread. I read it and only 7 posts ,I'd call that far from hijacked.
Now at the issue on hand. As mentioned in the other thread. Its the SD card. Also their is a hack kit irc go there. Plus pasting the output would help aswell

OK, as i have stated, i have tried a new SD card (2, actually, with the same results.) as far as an output screen, there is none. Ace Hack Kit goes through the whole downgrade process, my phone gets in to hboot, but it is just a standard hboot screen, and it doesn't downgrade. When my phone restarts, it restarts like i just did a factory reset.
There is an output,copy what ever it says. There probably is something you missed
As too the SD card ,try adifferent one again. Your SD cards are corrupt and you need to find one that works with the kit
Also since your on a sense 3.0 did you do the changing of the boot img before running the kit?

by changing the of the boot img do you mean downgrading it? That is what i am trying to do. The kit is supposed to do it automatically. If that is not what you mean, please explain!
As to the output, copy thing, no, there is none of that. I have followed the instructions about 20 times. After starting the downgrade process, the phone restarts and comes up with a red triangle. At that point i am supposed to hold volume up and power, and it goes and reboots and i do the same thing again. At this point, i am told that the phone will boot into hboot and check the boot image. When it is done, i am supposed to hit volume up to confirm, and then the phone will reboot, this time in to the down graded image. That is where my problem comes in. Instead of checking the boot image, it just goes to a standard hboot screen. There are no error messages or warnings, and i have followed the instructions to the letter.
As far as the cards are concerned, the maker of the kit suggested a 2 or 4gb Sandisk series 4 or 6 SDHC card, so i bought 2 of the series 6 4gb, along with the 2 others that i already have. I also have 2 series 4 4gb and 2 series 4 2gb Sandisk cards, as well as an 8gb and 2 4gb PNY cards. All of the cards recognize in my phone and PC, and the older cards also recognize in my Nook (and were used to root and load custom roms on several other devices), i have not loaded the new cards in to any other devices besides my laptop and the phone for fear of corrupting it. So i find it difficult to believe that the cards could be the problem.
I know what the kit says. What I'm saying is In the command prompt it spits out a lot of info. For example it will say stuff about zergrush and or taco root. THATS the important stuff, this is what is used to allow the downgrade to be possible. If their a failure in the process it would state it there. That's why I keep asking for it. Don't understand your reluctance to do a simple copy and paste
The changing of the boot img is something that is different and you should read about it on attn1 site. Version 3.20 has a slightly different method

I appreciate the attempt to help (the reason why i didn't post a direct copy paste was simply as i was in no position at the time to take one, not any reluctance to ultimately do so...) In my recent attempt to provide you with a full copy paste of the process, i was able to figure out what i was doing wrong. For anyone who may have the same or similar issue: format the SD card while it is in the phone from your PC right before starting the process. Thats all it took. Even for a card that was brand new and untouched, or formatted before putting it in the phone, i couldn't get it to work, but it worked doing it that way, and i am now happily rooted and ready to install CM9!
Glad you got it figured out. Formatting the SD card in the phone is a must, since the phone puts important files on the card after formatting.

Wrong. There's no need to format the sdcard to run the Hack Kit, unless your sdcard is not in fat32 system file format. The only requirement is that your sdcard must not be corrupted to work as a goldcard. Corruption of the boot partition of the sdcard can not be solved by formatting and is produced by improper dismount of it.

I'm just speaking from experience. Every SD card I've put in my phone I had to format in the phone because it was giving me problems. After, no problems. Maybe it's just my phone. or the cards weren't FAT32.
You're last sentence is probably where most people screw it up. You can't just yank an SD card out of whatever device it's in, which I think a lot of people do. But I have fixed cards that were removed without unmounting by formatting. Maybe other parts were corrupt but not the boot partition?

As far as I am concerned the boot partition can not be restored by formatting. SDCARD should always be dismounted properly.
Just wanted to check peoples thoughts on this. Had a 32GB Sandisk card corrupt (i think) on me the other day. Woke the phone and seen the SD card icon in the task bar as if it had just mounted the SD but it had unmounted it and said that there wasn't one inserted. Have yet to try it in a PC to see what (if any) files I can recover.
The previous night I had made a nandroid backup (Philz touch), there was something not quite right with the file sizes not showing on screen but it seemed to work the second time around. Can't recall if the card was formatted as FAT32 or exFAT, but if FAT32 could one of the nandroid files caused issues if it was over 4GB? Anyway going to see what I can possibly recover and if it can be reformatted again before possibly purchasing a 16GB Samsung card here: (http://www.7dayshop.com/samsung-plus-microsdhc-uhs-1-16gb-memory-card-class-10). Dont mind the smaller size if its more reliable.

I quite highly doubt a Samsung SD card will be more reliable. Don't know what's the fuss about SanDisk corrupted but I myself or anyone in my friend/colleague circle have yet to face a problem with SanDisk!
And the first thing you should do is format your card to exFAT, I really don't know how and why people uses FAT32

This is the first problem I've had with it to be honest, had it or over a year and was using it in my HTC Sensation previously. I'm trying to remember if it was exFAT or FAT32, I remember a ROM (Google Edition S4 ROM) not being compatible with exFAT and checking mine out of curiosity, but just can't recall what it was and never flashed the ROM. I didn't reformat it coming from my Sensation so it hadn't changed in anyway.
Luckily all my photos were backed up to dropbox so nothing lost of too much importance. Need to get a microSD card reader to see if its completely borked or if files can be retrieved.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure that Nandriod breaks the files down smaller than 4GB if you're running on Fat32 so I doubt that'll be your problem. Mostly because the FAT32 architecture just won't accept a file that big unless the Linux kernel of Android ignores the limitations. I would HIGHLY recommend NOT restoring a nandroid backup if you think the sizes are off or if you're attempting to recover the data without and MD5 checksum. That's all sorts of bad juju.
As for Sandisk vs Samsung, I have both, I've never had a problem with either. My sammy card is in my TF201 and my Sandisk is in my I337 as it's a faster card from my benchmarks. But like I said, no problems with either.
As for data recovery, go check out Recuva, it's supposed to be pretty good especially for being free. Since I'm IT I have professional grade software for data recovery and don't have tons experience with Recuva. A couple tips about data recovery. Once you determine you want to recover data, DO NOT WRITE TO OR FORMAT THE CARD, that'll prove to make the entire process more difficult. it's going to take a good long time, at least an hour for the initial scan. Do all the work on the card from a computer and not through a connection to your phone. Anyway if you have any questions or possibly want some help shoot me a PM, I'm happy to impart my knowledge.

I thought it should break them down, it was just the /data partition that includes the apps and app cache, if it could be over 4GB stored as a .tar file would that still be broken down as such? Won't be attempting to restore the nandroid (if its even still recoverable) as I have flashed a pre-rooted stock odin firmware and its actually really smooth (maybe thats due to the sd card not being inserted). Although I seem to be having an issue flashing a custom ROM, as even after flashing the firmware via odin then trying to flash a ROM via Philz touch its still bootlooping (even with a wipe/factory reset and clean install format). Haven't attempted a different custom ROM but just havent had the time to test that out. Thinking I would have to download the original firmware files and start from scratch with rooting and adding a recovery to see if that solves it, but think I'm going to sit tight for the moment.
Thanks for the recommendation and the support, much appreciated.

Well in general in windows when a FAT32 structure is asked to write a file larger than 4GB it'll flat out deny it (usually saying something like disk is full). If you're writing to a FAT32 structure using something that increments the file as it writes it, when it hits the 4GB file size limit, it'll usually say again disk is full and the file will go corrupt (which can lead to the file being undetectable). I do believe that Nandriod is smart enough to realize when it gets to that 4GB limit it'll break the tar into multiple files or else the linux OS would probably kick back an error. As for your ROM bootloops and things like that, I'd see about another ROM, maaaaybe it could just be that the ROM you flashed doesn't like your phone (I have an i717 that does that with a ROM). If that still doesn't solve it, like you said. Start at the beginning completely clean and just work through the entire process.

Cheers, I had re-downloaded the previous version of the ROM which I was on before hand and made sure to check the md5s but it still wouldn't boot which was annoying, but a full install from scratch may be the way to go. Never had bootloops before and was just worried after I had wiped and started a fresh and it still happened. I think the real lesson is to make sure to backup ANYTHING that is of value to you!
Luckily I had just happened to use the auto backup for photos to dropbox so got off lightly this time!
I have had the EXACT same issue 2 weeks ago.
I bought 2 x 32gig microSD cards (Sandisk)
1 for my phone and 1 for my digital camera.
Recently the 32gig one in my phone just DIED for no reason at all. Lost all my files, music, everything.
I contacted Sandisk, had it repalced. In the meanwhile i purchased a 64gig Samsung one.
I am yet to have an issue with the Samsung 64gig, but only time will tell.
On a plus note, Sandisk sent me a replacement 32gig card very quickly (infact too quick, i purchased the 64gig Samsung one on the idea that the Sandisk replacement was going to take months... in fact it only took 6 days...)
Cheers
How did you contact Sandisk, did you need to give a serial number or provide proof of purchase?

I always use Fat32 on SD-cards. Why? It works on every Rom, with every kernel, every recovery, on every device, every camera, every computer, all the time.
When not in need of files greater than 4GB Fat32 simply is the way to go, compatibilty-wise.
