[Q] after partitioned cd card - HELP!

Hi,
I partitioned my sd card by this software - MiniTool Partition Wizard Home Edition
to 2 partitions: EXT3 -1GB and FAT32 - 7GB.
(SD card of 8 GB)
now, my HTC Desire doesnt upload and stuck on the screen of my rom.
i tried to upload it with no sd card ad it stuck on the HTC screen.
i cant format the sd card by the recovery.
HELP!!

have you tried using super wipe?
it should fix the partitions and if not that have you tried putting it into a computer and formatting it there?

instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9126707&postcount=1

thnx for the fast commet.
but how can i upload this zip into the sd-card?

in recovery mode usb toggle drop it in the sd and flash....
follow the instructions though
or hook it up to the laptop like the normal and copy and paste either one

but i cant load files into the sd card by the computer..
it pluged it to the computer, but its only charge - i cant load files on the sd.

is that with or without an sd adapter?
does your sd show up?
have you tried to repair your sd by recovery...i think its under partition
because i had that problem once...well without the getting stuck screen...what about your nandroids though?

do you have an sdcard reader so you can try useing the card on the computer without the phone if not try taking the card out then going into recovery putting the card back in and then go into recovery again and try to format that worked once for me

ok have you tried formatting on the computer instead of the memory card?
also a friend of mine should be coming on to help in a lil but try to format on the computer...
if not turn off then take out sd card and try again

i've no sdcard reader, ill buy it tomorrow.
ive tried to format sd card in the recovery with no sd card, and than with sd card and it didnt work.
theres another way?
thnx very much to both of you!

hopefully that works man

thnx very much!
theres no another way to format it? by adb or something?
but how can i use adb? when i tried to install the Desire's Drivers its not working.

what i should write to format the sd card?

someone knows the command to format the sd card by ADB?
plizz

Messed up SD card during downgrade portion of rooting.

I thought I had turned my sd card into a goldcard in my inspire but I must have done something wrong. during the downgrade part of rooting, bootloader was unable to find pd981im.zip ... now my sd card is jacked. rebooted the phone and now I am not able to connect the phone as a physical disk (option is not even there) and it says damaged sd card. Is there a way to bring the sd card back to life through the phone or do I have to buy a micro sd usb key or the likes to format it?
Let me know if I need to clarify more.
Thanks,
Dkay

Try going into settings>>SD & phone storage and unmount your SD card, then hit the "Format SD card". It's worth a shot, if not you could go buy a cheap 2 gig for the SD card adapter.
P.S. This section is for development, just a heads up.

You didnt make your gold card correctly some times it takes a few times to make it. As said before format and retry.

You may have just typed your ZIP file incorrectly in this post, if not the

Hi,
Is the sd card loose in it's casing?

What have your tried?
Tried SD in a different Phone?
Checked the SD for errors?
Is the SD loose in the carrier?
Formatted the SD (fat 32 and primary partioion) from a PC?
Tried a different SD in your phone?
It does help if you do the basics and add what you've done in the OP

No, I'm never inserting my SD card to any other devices
Previously i checked it for errors,and got cleaned
After I purchased it,i haven't formatted....
I found this "un-expectally unmount error" from this last week...

I had similar issues with my sensation my sd would unmount unexpectedly it would vary from rom to rom. I found that if re flashed my current rom without a wipe it would correct the problem. It worked in my case hope it helps

I would try the reflashing rom idea above as its easy.
If that doesnt work transfer all the sd card data to your computer then format the card. See if that fixes.

sd card cant mount

Hi people!
I have a big problem for quite long time...i cant mount my sd card. Under storage (sd card) total space: unavailable, available space: unavailable. mount sd card,erase sd card,sd card encryptin are all grayed. I am on stock rom 3.20.502.52. i also tried to mount it on previous stock roms. I am S-on...i had rooted phone and didnt wont to mount it also so i returned to stock to try. I treied almost everything that i could remember. I formated my card in computer,no luck i tried with diffrent sd card,no luck. I tried with adb command,fastboot oem enableqxdm 0,it says ok but still can mount,tried with fastboot eom eraseconfig but i culdnt execute that command,some error dont now which one...oo tried that all while i had rooted inspire. All my card works fine in diffrent phone but not in mine,please help,i am going crazy. I cant take photos,listen music, almost nothing

Other than something being stuck in the adapter I would say the reader needs to be replaced. Probably not what you want to hear.

I had this happen to me after downloading around 285 apps. I had most of my apps stored on the sd card once downloaded and had no problems; then all of a sudden after rebooting the Inspire would not recognize the sd card or unmount. I tried almost everything until I came across a post regarding the amount of apps stored on the sd card. The only solution (bear with me while I try to explain this) was to transfer most of the apps back to phone until I got the amount of files stored in the asec folder under the total amount of internal memory available on the phone; which for me was 1.14GB. I haven't had the problem since and now the app icons show up on my home screen without several reboots and my card can finally be unmounted. Hope that helps.

Any fix? I have same problem

[Q] Micro SD Issue

Hello all,
I am suffering from an weird issue, that I had never aware of...
After found some issues with "Memory card Unexpectedly removed" and "Screenshot couldn't be store in SD card"
I tried to format SD card, but what I found --->I can't Format SD card...
I tried :::::
--> Scanned with Antivirus (Kaspersky) and removed 1 Trojan from 3rd Party apk file..
--> Unmount the Card and Format it via Phone...
--> Formatted via 4EXT recovery
--> attached with PC and Formatted with FAT32..
--------------------------------------------------------------------
CAN'T SUCCEED....
--------------------------------------------------------------------
EDIT :: I can't write any data as well
--------------------------------------------------------------------
And by chance, if Format succeeds then after when I insert the SD card again to device or attaching with PC, ALL THE DATA COMES BACK again without any Data Loss
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Help Me.....My device details are listed in My Signature...

Hi,
Are you sure the sd card is sitting in it's housing properly ?
Does it still click in and out?
Could there be some dust or fluff preventing it from making good contact with the phone?
Is there any way you could get a card reader,and try it directly into the PC
What about trying a different card?

Not an issue with Housing and Phone, I think It's an Issue with Micro SD itself...
I tried it with connecting with PC via Card Reader, but If i Format the card and again read it via Phone, All the Data comes back without any Data loss.....
It's the Problem with SD card only...I know that diff SD card solve this, but as this is my 32gigs, i have to solve it cause I can't afford any other 32 gig SD card...
EDIT:: Any way to Forcefully Format SD card.... ??

Here's how I formatted my 64gig. SD card. Pull battery, put battery back in, press power and volume down at same time, when in bootloader choose recovery, press power to go to it. Once in 4ext. Recovery choose format SD card. It will ask are you sure. Hit yes. Let card format. This will work. It worked for me. Remember to back up data if any on SD card because formatting will erase it. I did mine this way because the device wasn't recognising my card in the phone. It worked perfectly. Hope this helps! Best wishes. It worked for me. Hopefully this will also work for you!

Sounds like the SD card is locked some how. Maybe you can return it to the seller for another one? He should return it without issue after you explain to seller what's happening. You have tried just about everything. Perhaps return is an option now? Seller should give you another card free of charge. Wonder why it's locked in the first place?? If I we're you, I'd contact your seller right away. I don't see why he wouldn't replace it. Best of luck to you. Hopefully you can resolve this issue.. best wishes!
Edit.. search on google unlocking micro SD card, or unlocking write protected SD card. It said there is a small sliding lock on the adapter, look carefully on the side. It said to place micro SD into adapter and slide tiny lock in opposite direction. Towards contacts is unlocked towards top is lock. You will see the lock switch if you look carefully on the adapters side. It's a tiny switch. This is suppose to unlock the write protection. Check it out on Google! Hope this helps you out! Best wishes!

I know there is a small unlock key provided on card Reader for Locking/Unlocking the Card Write Protection, But I'm not using Single Card Reader, I'm using Multi-card reader (which is capable of reading 4-6 different types of card at the same time) and in this Card Reader there is no any Lock/Unlock switch...
I also tried Format from RECOVERY...Also tried by connecting via data cable and tried to format it from Windows...All the possible tries i had done so far...
As Ganeshp suggested I tried SDFormatter,
But didn't work----> It says can't Format..Write Protection..
