If the pictures are in the SD simply extract it and plug in into your computer with a SD card reader. But if they're in the internal memory, I'm afraid you can't, unless digitizer still works and you can insert your screen pattern. Any method* to try to remove the pattern will wipe your internal memory too.
*Unless you've root permissions and you flash via recovery a pattern remover flashable zip

I have a T-Mobile G2 with stock 8GB microsd card. I was recording a video about 45 secs into it and all of a sudden the phone froze, I am not sure if it got full caz just before taking the video I checked and there was ~1.8GB free space. After a while an message came up saying "Please insert a SD card" (something along those line), so I figured my card must be full.
So I decided to go try and delete some file on it, only to find out all my apps installed on SD card was now unavailable, this is when I started to worry. I rebooted the phone, no luck. I shut it down and removed and replaced the SD card, no luck.
Plugged it into a Windows PC (Win XP 32 bit), it would see it in My Computers for few seconds and would disappear, even if I try to access it, it was just disappear.
I have some pictures and videos that I had taken on vacation which I really need, any ideas?
Currently as a temp solution I have a 4GB Microsd card in it and everything is fine (obviously, apps still not available), but I need the data from my original 8GB as this is my main concern, please help.
Btw, I have tried using recovery software such as Recuva and testdisk but since windows won't even see the drive I cannot use such software.
Thanks a ton.
if the sd not detected in phone or pc, maybe the sd card already dead.
anyone please?
Thanks
Im not sure what else can be said. If you computer and phone cant see the card, then it's probably dead. All you can at this point is attempt to do a quick format of the card and try to use the recovery software on it to see if you can restore the file structure

Yeh that is my last resort, but the problem is I cannot do anything as the drive disappears 2-3 seconds after windows detects it and when I try to do anything to that drive it just freezes for a while and closes itself.
any ideas??
if you have a digital camera insert the micro-sd via adapter make sure though to unmount the micro-sd via CWM for example, you should now be able to format the micro-sd card over the menu of your camera. if this doesn't work there's still hope you can try to format it on a linux based system but for now try to format it on your cam
Regular recovery methods won't work too good on an sd card, they were meant for spinning drives. Flash memory either works or it doesn't usually. Try cleaning the contacts and using different card reader/adapter combos. Try a linux live cd etc. If it's dead or corrupted, your kinda stuck. Even a format worked I wouldn't trust it again.
Hello all
i updated to the 3.24 firmware, and since then i only get untill the splash screen then it restarts again!
what can i do now? i can't restore the old firmware because each time i go to recovery it asks if i want to update firmware (because the new firmware file is still in sd card).
any ideas?
best regards!
Remove the firmware from your SD card and pull out the battery. When you delete the PG58IMG from you SD card, put in back in your phone and also your battery.
Then you turn on the phone into recovery mode and install the rom.

just open back take out sdcard, boot into recovery and put sdcard back in then mount usb from recovery and delete it then put new ARHD or Insertcoin and flash!

^^This^^ or use adb tools and type 'adb reboot recovery', use your recovery to mount your sd card, and delete pg58img.zip file from your computer. Have to get the command in right when your computer detects your phone.
thanks for the quick reply
how can i access the sd card ? i cant turn on the device

can you get into bootloader? if you can then go into recovery from bootloader
Or you could take out the sd card, boot up, and then put the card back in and then remove the file. I had to do that the first time I flashed because I didn't have a micro SD adapter with me
i have htc hd2 and i was flashing a new wp7.5 rom but my pc restarted and now my memory card doesnot work its not recognized by pc or my phone only nokia phones recgnize it but they demand a password and i dont know the password.
i tried different methods to crack the PW but nothing is working cant format my sd card as its not detected by pc via cable card reader anything.
htc hd2 connected to pc by cable also dont detect the memory card.
any solution to get my memory card working.
i have tried hard resets and different android roms too.
My best guess that it's a file system issue(ie, if the card is alive).
Try and do your best to get it working on the computer. If it doesn't work on the computer then I don't think it could work elsewhere.

Guys im new to site and dont know how to really navigate here yet so u can move post if need be but is there a way to fix a hard brick? i deleted something in my Motorola Pro Plus and after the deletion the phone doesnt respond to anything and i get that driver QHDE_SHEY (Example) thinggy missing that i read means hard brick! can i send it somewhere i wonna save this little guy.
Copy the Bootloader file to an external SD Card, using a normal device. Then insert the external SD card into the bricked phone, and copy the bootloader file to your device, and then downloading other necessary files. I think that basically it'll be something like that.
it looks like i deleted the boot loader nd thats the problem i tried your wy but the phone is not recognized at all i hear it connect to my cpu but the QUSUS_LOAD drivers comes up its not being recognized as a com port.

If you messed up your bootloader then the only chance to save your device is to take it to a service centre and get it Jtagged.
It's been a while since I've posted on here, but I browse the forum time to time. I recently unlocked the bootloader for my Motorola Moto G3. I followed the steps to do it, seemed trivial and easy, didn't look like it would change the phone drastically. I reboot the phone, and I find that all my data, media, apps were erased and had to be redownloaded. Most of my apps were backed up and installed, ok.
Now, the thing that really pisses me off is that I have a Micro SD card where I put all my media and downloads in, no apps installed. And even that, I couldn't see into it anymore. Android is saying it needs to be reformatted. I want to know, how can I see into the SD card? Unlocking the bootloader shouldn't have done anything to the SD card or the data inside it. Is there any software that I can use? I tried to simply use a USB card reader and even with that, I couldn't look into the files. Help!

Move the data from the micro SD over to PC, then format the card in the device, then move everything back onto the micro SD.

That's what I was saying when I used a USB card reader. I plugged the card into the PC, nothing comes up. While the device is recognized as plugged in, nothing shows up in Windows Explorer.

One thing you can try is put it back in your phone and go to system settings>apps, tap the menu button, select "show system apps", find "External Storage" clear its cache and data then boot to recovery and wipe cache, do not factory reset, if you have custom recovery, wipe dalvik/ART cache also then reboot, maybe that will let it rebuild it resources properly to recognize the micro SD.
