I have this enspert e201u, at first is indicates that my SD card was damaged, replaced it with a new one but still the same then tried to reboot the unit still the same. Did a factory reset to have a fresh start at first it booted succesfully so switch it off again to insert the sd card this time but it won't boot any more, tried booting it without sd card just the same, reset button still the same. Any body can help me on this. Is it bricked? The unit was not rooted any way. Thanks
i just rooted my epic 4g touch and everything worked but the problem came when i tried to install a ROM into it. i backed up my files and downloaded the zip files and transferred them to my SD card. i wiped all the data/cache and when i tried to install it, it didnt work. it kept saying 'no files' so i decided to format the SD and again, no go. then i tired 3 other ROMS and nothing. i even tried applying an update to the card and nothing. i used a different SD card and tried everything again and STILL nothing.
After, i turned on my phone and its stuck on the 'android' screen and when i tried restoring, it said 'no files found'
what is there to do now? is there any way of getting the old data back? i just want to get this phone up and running again
Im having the same issue, were you ever able to fix it?
Recently had a issue with this transformer I got from CL, First had aboot looping issue, called asus and they were going to replace it, but I let the battery drain, hooked it up to my laptop and it just started working.
I updated it, downloaded apps, played around with it up to now where I want to use the mircoSD card slot and it's not working, I have 2 and nothing is being detected, Firmware is update, it's pure stock. It gives no indication of trying to read the SD card, I looked for it in Astro and nothing, it cant even try to make the directory.
I've done restarts and such as well
SD Card is formatted to fat32 (both cards)
Any clues?
Bad port or unlucky software flash, I'd say. Try a factory reset, if that doesn't fix you should RMA borked hardware.
Annnnnnd now I am back to being stuck in the boot loop....Godf'n damnit
Alright, so you're totally stock. I'd say you're mostly screwed, can you Cold-Boot android? If so I'd try rooting and putting cwm on there + a rom and kernel to fix issues.
Otherwise, RMA.
It's getting RMA'd regardless but I'm just not sure why the hell it started working last night out of the blue
it's not being detected by adb devices in recovery. I tried cold booting and just stays in boot loop
Yeah, just RMA it at this pt.
So a couple of weeks ago, I flashed Helly Bean on to my phone. It was a pretty clean flash, and my phone worked fine. I was really enjoying the new OS and everything, but then a few days ago, after sending a text message, I set my phone aside and the phone randomly restarted. But for some reason, it went back to the very old Android boot animation (like 2.1), instead of the regular Helly Bean one. I let the phone sit for a few minutes and it just seemed stuck on that screen. So I did a battery pull and restarted, but the same thing happened again. I did a battery, sim, and sd card pull and left them out for about 5 minutes, and restarted again, and got stuck in a bootloop with the white AT&T screen. So, I did a little research and decided that I should go back to flash because that was the only way to get my phone working again. I re-flashed stock and finally got my phone running again. Since I didn't have a way of doing a backup, my phone deleted everything I had (I still have a back up on my PC from when I flashed Helly Bean, so I didn't make much of it). Then, I tried flashing a different CM10 rom on it, ParanoidAndroid. I followed the instructions, and again, clean flash. Then I set up my Google account and let Google Play restore all my apps, the apps installed without any problems. I mounted my phone onto my PC and realized that only my 4gb external SD was showing up, and that I mistook it for my internal SD when I flashed PA. However, all of my apps were installed on the internal SD card, because the external SD wouldn't have enough space on it to store them all. I figured that I flashed the rom wrong and tried to go back to Gingerbread stock and flash it again. I cleared both caches, did a factory reset, and used one of the Odin OneClicks from xda, just like I did before. About 3/4 of the way through the flash, the phone just restarted and got stuck in another bootloop. But this time, I couldn't get back into download mode using any of the button combos, and the phone got bricked. I decided that getting a USB Jig was my only option and prepared to get one. Then, yesterday, I randomly just decided to try turning on my phone again, and it actually started up. It went all the way back to Eclair. And now this time, it doesn't recognize either of my SD cards. And for some reason, I can't turn the phone on unless my external SD card is in it. Also sometimes I can't make/receive calls and I can't send texts either. I tried doing the OTA firmware update, but it just got stuck at 50% and wouldn't update. So I'm not sure what to do at this point because I don't have access to my internal or external SD cards. Anybody have any ideas as to what may have happened and/or how I can fix it? Should I even bother trying to flash GB/ICS/JB again?
TL;DR: Went from ICS to Helly Bean, was working fine until phone randomly reset itself. Went back to GB, tried flashing ParanoidAndroid, but this time, internal SD card not recognized, but all of my apps were installed on it anyway. Tried going back to GB and got bricked. Phone wouldn't go into download mode, so let it be for a day. The next day, the phone did start up again, but it went back to Eclair 2.1, and now my internal or external SD cards are not recognized by the phone.
Maybe your card is mounted to another mount point now? Have you checked fstab?

I haven't, I'm not sure how to do that.
Have you tried both of the possible button combos for DL mode vol up+power and vol down + power?
I have a cappy and a vibe both running hellybean and one thing I noticed is the cappy recognizes external as internal and vice versa.
If your phone will boot up without ext SD, try and format the ext sd card.
Did you lose root?
its peanut butter jelly(bean) time

Well my phone is working now. I can use it just as I would normally. I'm just a bit cautious to go back into DL mode because I don't want to completely brick the phone, and I don't have a backup phone to use if it does. As far as the external/internal SD being jumbled up, I wasn't aware others might be experiencing the same problem or if that was a bug in Hellybean; I don't recall it being listed in the bugs. I don't think I've lost root, but I'm thinking I might un-root and re-root it and that might solve the problem. Do you think that would be a good idea? Or should I just let it be?
I rooted my iphone about 6 months ago and hadnt have a problem after the first 5.0.2 update came up on xda i downloaded it to my sd card. After booting it in recovery and launching the update it worked. Then my phone kept saying that the sd card was broken and to format it and i did and it didnt work. Tried to launch it into recovery that didnt work.
any ideas? is there a way i can completely reset my phone before it was even rooted?
first, please confirm your sd card current condition. does it work on other phone or when connected to PC using card reader?
