My father get a wizard from somewhere, and he wants to revive it. I think theres a lot topic describes how to do it, but I don't have time for this yet, and my father read all the forum, but he says he didn't found the answer, so please post a link if someone has the solution.
The problem is:
When I start my device it stucks at the boot screen. If I try to Hard Reset it (comm+voice+reset), it says FAT format faliure. If I try to do a rom upgrade on it, it upgrades succesfuly, with no problems, but still wont pass the splash screen.
Please help my father

You need to create an SD image backup and restore it from the image. Goodluck. I'll try to search the forum for the link..

Use a digital camera or Media reader for your PC to format the miniSD Card.

This is the only way you will be able to do it as when you a a SD card dump it is raw so makes it so the card can not be read by anything till it has been formated!!!
you need to format your minisd, either through and SD card reader or camera. Goodluck! At least you got you wizard going.

Hey all, i know there are many miniSD problem threads, but i wasnt able to find this particular one...
I just got a PQI 2GB miniSD, i formated it with SKTools, and started installing some programs...installs go fine, but when i try to run the programs, it says that its not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. i get that msg with all the programs i install...and nothing works on it!!!
Use file explorer to see if you can browse the card. The error you have seen usually mean that the device is unable to read the card. You will need to reformat the card again. I usually do it in my laptop using a card reader.
i can browse it...it gets detected with the right amount of size and everything...my preveious card was a 256 MB and it was always good...
Copy everything in the card to your computer. Reformat the card but using your computer this time. Copy everything back to the card.
ive tried that too!! still nothing...
In that case I am running out of idea I am using the same PQI and have no problem with my Wizard. You probably get a defective card. Maybe it's time to page the vendor for a replacement card.
Usually if you just format it in via the computer, it should work. Try formatting it twice in succession and if it still does not work, you might have a defective card like imisim said above.
Guys, stop confusing...
It has nothing to do with a memory card.
And you Malik use search next time!

It has everything to do with the memory card because the solution you have posted won't work and doesn't apply to the OP. The solution only apply to a few applications which doesn't have the "sign-code/certificate". After you have signed the code and it will work for those apps.
The OP problem is that none of the installed programs will work, not just one or two none signing certificate (BTW, most of the none signing apps are usually warez/cracked ) The OP problems are mostly due to the memory card itself.
yes ive searched. yes ive tried alot of things. now that thats out the way id be grateful for any help on the topic. i dowloaded a few dreaimg files from xda as wll as androidandme.com rooting guide. none work. i tried to format my card again to load the image back on the sd card and try again and no luck my comp wont even read my sd card now. i have an 8gb and i hope its not fully fried but i can get another card if needed. my main thing is i was going from rc-33 back to 29 in order to root the phone and i get the dreaimg.nbh fail. i havent had a phone for about 3 days. if there is anyone out there to help ill take it. thanks in advanced.
what steps are you doing? explain step by step what you are doing....
Format your card to be Fat32 and make sure that you do not use a card reader. Works like a charm. The main thing is that your card needs to be Fat32.
I tried using a card reader but would not read then I formatted thru the phone and worked and flashed

step by step
i formatted the card while it was in my phone to FAT32.
i downloaded the image to get my phone back down to rc29 in order to root.
directly from my phones browser i downloaded http://www.androidactivity.com/root/root.apk over wifi
installed the root.apk file
powered off my phone then turned it back on by holding cam button and power.
ressed power to run image then got FAIL.
i followed the instructions from here:
http://www.androidandme.com/2009/05...r-rooting-your-android-g1-to-install-cupcake/
after it failed there was no way for me to mount my phone so i got a sd card reader, plugged that in and then went to apply the file manually. i deleted the old file then put the new one on and it still didnt work so i decided to format the card to fat32 again and then try to put the fileback on. now the card cannot be read.
thank you for the quick responses i appreciate it.
i didn't use thaqt app- i just did it the old fashioned way in the sticky thread on this forum.
i read in the middle of that page you linked to that "Update: Some users have reported the DREAIMG.nbh file gets corrupted when downloading over 3G/Edge. To avoid this just download the file to your PC and then copy it to the SD card." -
is this what you did? i see you downloaded it from your phone- maybe its the phone that corrupts it- DL it from your PC and transfer apk over from there.
looks like a nice app though.....

Hi
I have 2 gb micro sd card and I want to format it using Resco file explorer. But it keeps telling me to check to see if its unlocked.
I use to be able to format without a problem. But i have recently started to flash roms. I can put stop and take stuff without a problem. Just won't let me format.
I also tried formatting using my laptop, but won't work.
EDIT: Sorry, wrong place. Wanted to post this in general Kaiser forum.
Is the little write protect tab on the side of the sd card in the right position??
i moved it off the lock position and nothing? my comp won't even let me right click it. when I click to open it, says needs to be formatted and when i click format PC says it can't be formatted.
I searched on here, but no thread about this type of problem. card isn't ruined because i can still add and delete stuff.
I never experience this issue .. quite confusing.
However, this should be posted in General forum, not ROM Development. Mod, please move as such ..

Could be a problem with the card / slot connectors. Try with some other card reader.
I had an issue once where I couldn't format my card - I had no lock errors though, just couldn't format through the PC or with PPC programs.
Eventually I installed 'Flash Format' by CNetX (google it) - it formatted first time on the free evaluation version.
Worth a try if you're about to bin it!
Good luck.

You sir are a genius and a life-saver!
This product is a magical potion for the microSD card. I tried so many different things online, on the laptop, and the Kaiser and none worked. This thing took less than a minute and formatted with the click of one button.
Mods, please move this thread. Hopefully it can help others who might have this problem in the future.
Thank you very much sir!
Glad it worked - it's very strange that this little program seems to be able to sort the issues that even the premium programs can't....

Might have a dead/faulty sdcard slot,old parts tend to fail.
ok what you have to do now is download this program called paragon partition manager jus google it n it should be the first link., after downloading the manager open it n locate ur sd card (also u do need a sd card adapter so make sure u have the one tht came with the phone or any onther in this case.,) after u have located the card patition it., to do this u have to choice how much space u want for ur ext 2 ., i choice about 300 to 350mb range leaving me with about 3.6gb left for my personal use., after u choice the amount u want for ur ext 2 start the partition it should be a few mintues., after tht put the memory card into ur phone check if it works., i did this same procedure n worked jus fine for me., hope this helps you out., if not post back the problem.,
jibbz
any reason why a second thread (both created by you, on the same topic) is nessicary???
i gave you a few specific instructions last time....
first, repartition the card (using paragon, or a ubuntu live CD) if it doesnt work then you
can try a fresh format on another SD card... if niether work then you just have a faulty slot (assuming you are on a stable/Stock rom that you know works)
and YES FASTBOOT can recognize a card while the rest of the phone wont(personal experience), dont ask me to explain it, but if you had even read my last post in your other thread youd have know that......
your G1 is probaly just old.... get over it.... it was always intended as a Beta/Dev device....
and you HAVE been reported for spamming the forum with multiple threads on the same topic (in the wrong section this time no less)..... and dont ***** and whine about no-one checking the q-a sections.... it cuz fsck-balls like you spam useless ****
MOD EDIT - Please abide by forum rules and only post a query once. No need for duplicate threads. I have deleted previous thread

Okay, it's irritating. try googling but it is not even a search result or probably I'm a dumb.
I got pissed right now. After try an android on X1 and feel I like it, it's stucked at somewhat. So I soft reset it and now when log in to WinMo it asked me to format the SD Card, after i try it. the SD is till not detected.
Then plug USB Cable but still the computer just sound beep twice and show none in my Computer.
I try to remove the SD to my Aspen and Nokia 5800 but they also can't detect it. I have no micro SD reader or adapter so I can't try on PC.
Help me.

"Please" would have been a nice addition here
Not sure what you might have messed up with Android, but to check the SD there's only two options:
get a new one and try again or
get yourself a µSD reader of any kind, shouldn't be too expensive
BTW: You say you installed Android and after soft reset you are in WinMo again? That doesn't sound like really having "installed" Android to me - might be an idea to post your question where you got whatever you installed on your phone to get the Android feeling.....

I'm sorry 'please' has several meaning in my culture. My culture prohibit a girl to ask 'please' to anonymous. If that word helpful, okay, please help me.
English isn't my language so you might interpret what I want to say wrongly.
Android is installed and I had run it for days. Once upon time, in the middle of proccessing something, it stuck so I did a soft reset. Then I boot into Windows Mobile (not Android) -DualBOOT- and Windows Mobile ask me to format microSD Card but after it is formatted, the card is invisible. update: I borrow my friend's an imported SD Card, microSD is detected but the computer ask to insert in it.

dualBoot was the missing detail for me.....
Purely guessing as I am not an Android expert:
Were you able to boot into WinMo before that "crash"?
Were you able to boot into Android after the crash?
Can Android handle FAT32 formatted cards?

It's Okay,
Yes no problem before. I'm not sure how my card formatted but it's original coming from the package.
Try to format SD card in computer with FAT32.
For dual boot you have make partition formated with Ext2 right? What prograd did you use for partitioning of SD? Minitool partition? Try to delete partitions used for Android.
Hi VSJ,
are u using XDAAndroid from frayaab, (I see ur post there too). My SD is also fried out. You're not alone. at least, there're 2-3 people who have the same problem. Someone said that the SD is fried out.

You should know that in X1 port Android, There are two types of releases: ones with ext2 partition and ones without. And I think this girl have android without EXT2 partition. Anyway question if Android can detect is is pretty lame, no offense, I think if the Storage Card isn't working how can you run the Android...
Don't you read that the card isn't detected. It's pretty clear, our problem that the card isn't even detected from OS File Explorer. How can that ur suggested software can detect it?
Hi VSJ, I want to update you. I've asked my friend w/o lucky and bring the card to SESC, I can assure you that SE won't guaranty SD Card.
Thank you for trying to help me.
Since the problem is occurred to many people, I dunno think that the Android only killed mine. I'm giving up. I think it's over a hardware issue.
The developer of the android also has no idea why the problem can be occurred.
