[Q] SD Card Unavaible - HTC Desire S

Hello people.
I cant access my sd card. I pulled the batery out and put it in afterwards, and after that, the phone doesnt recognize it.
Im running stock 4.0.4 version and when I go to storage, it says that SD Card is unavaible. I cant mount it or anything.
The sd card works, because the card worked when I've put in other Desire S (rooted, cm11).
I've read a lot on the Internet but most of the questions were for rooted devices.
Any tips? Should I put the phone in rooted desire s and backup files on sd and format it in fat32 and then put it back? Should it work?
Or what should I do? I dont wanna root the phone becuase I have 1 month warranty left. I just wanted to know is it possible to fix it without going in the store.
Big thanks

I would take out the card and power cycle the device (full reboot) then one the device has powered on insert the sdcard and see if the is detects it. When powering back on you can keep the battery pinched Into the device with your finger and you won't power off when you have the flap lifted up

Had the same problem 4 months ago, just disable fastboot option in settings. Should work.

Thanks for help guys you been really helpful. lol
Did your friend mention any problems with the phone? And where did you get the SD card from and where has it been used previously?
You most likely have a number of partitions on the SD card and you can only access the one. Try to repartition the card, there are a number of guides available that can help you do this. You might be able to find some here, or look it up on Google.
Hope that helps!

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
correct name is PD98IMG., there is no

[Q] Damaged SD Card?

So I unmounted it, put it in my PC, took some pictures off, ejected it, put it back in and guess what? Damaged SD card. I reformatted it 2-3 times and nothing. I need my SD for everything on my phone. I am rooted running a custom rom (Android Revolution HD). Please help me, i can't live without my SD
I could use some more information...does the phone not read the card? And your computer does?

Being rooted with a custom ROM doesn't mean you NEED the SD card. It will still be rooted and have the ROM loaded and working. I went through this last night for the 2nd time. You should be able to place SD card into computer, format (FAT32) and then reload it into phone and it should be fine. If this doesn't work try a different card.
I couldnt read it in my phone. And i know i dont NEED it, but all my apps are on it. I restarted, and it worked
I used to have the same problem with one of my sd cards and I found out that it wasn't genuine (hacked card) - yours may not be the case

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] No ROM, can't mount device

I backed up my storage and formatted storage from CWM to clean things up. When I went to mount USB storage to transfer zips of the ROM I want to use my computer doesn't see it. I tried with the SD card formatted as vfat and exfat. I'm fully rooted and all that. All firmwares are the latest version.
Can I get the two easiest options for putting a ROM back on here so I can use my darn phone? I'm not comfortable with adb. Thanks!
you can use another phone to put the rom on thru the sd card. and then put the sd card back on your phone and re flash it

Thanks for the reply. Not today I can't. I'm searching as I find time but it's a busy day today and going without my phone is like running going without pants.
