Strange problem with disk space on Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hello everyone. I have discovered a strange problem on my Diamond. When I try to transfer something to Internal Storage from the PC (a MP3 file , for example - a very small one) I get the "NOT ENOUGHT STORAGE SPACE" error on my device.
I have checked the properties in the Diamond, and apparently the 4GB disk drive is recognized properly (i have 3 gb of memory free).
I tried to flash another stock WM 6.1 ROM and a hard reset, with the stylus, but no luck.
Do you know what could be wrong ? And how can i fix it. Thanks!

nobody ? its very annoying, because i cannot transfer anything to my device.

have you tried on another computer ?
also try hard resetting along with formatting your internal storage aswell....you get an option for that in the hardreset menu.
or u can go to the settings and format your internal storage from there
just try

thanks for your reply.
i tried on 2 computers, but same thing happened.
i will give it a try with the internal storage format, and later today i will post the results. thanks!

clear your browser cache, cookes, and history. Fixed my low storage memory problem.

Allready tried to reformat it from the diamond? If this not work, perhaps this tool can help: http://flash-format.en.softonic.com/pocketpc
If both fails it is really dangerous to have a corrupt file-system on the diamond.

Thanks for the tip!
I traied to format whith the diamond but it says that its missing nand flash?
Take a look, if the internal storage has the same name as before. If not, perhaps you can rename it from the pc via active-sync. Good luck!
Nobody else with an idea about this? If nothing works for the threadstarter, this means: as soon as the FAT of your internal storage gets corrupt, (whyever) you have bricked your device more or less, (at least reduced the memory to a laughable tiny amount).
If this is the case, it can only be a very, very bad joke of HTC. It's like you have a big button in Windows Vista wich destroys your harddisk and nowhere is a warning sign or a safety-mechanism - that can't be true, or? (Its not a good example, cause you can exchange a PC's harddisk).
I think there are a lot of reasons, why a FAT can get corupted. (Tools on the PDA, sudden power-loss) and I'am wondering if no one here is a little bit concerned about this.
I've used the 2GB SD-card in my last PDA over a long period and during this, it was several times corrupted, so that I had to reformat it.
In the German PPC-Welt forum someone has posted the same issue, he returned his device, but this is only possible in the first two weeks, at least in Germany.
1. When you hard reset you have the option to format Internal Storage.
2. You have the option to format Internal Storage in Clear Storage in settings.

He can only format the storage, if it is found by the device. Obviousley this is not the case. Perhaps renaming helps. In this (German) thread, the same problem has been discussed: http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showthread.php?t=133023&highlight=fat32
Finaly ther user in this thread was able to format the storage but it was still not correctly recognized by his apps.
I hope the creator of this thread has more luck.

Reset device and now cannot install to internal memory.

I have been playing with my diamond and now that I know what programs I want to run - decided to reset my to factory defaults and install only the programs I want.
I reformatted all memory (4gig and system) and everything was back to normal sprint as I recieved it.
I started installing the apps I wanted, and realised that I no longer had the option of installing to the 4 gig area. (even though that is where I was running the cab from.)
The memory is there and appears to be fine, but anytime I install something, it installs to the internal memory and never gives me the options of where to install it.
Anyone have any idea what I have done to mess this up? Was working fine before the reset and as I said, I can still see the internal storage (and run the .cab files from there) Even the programs I had installed to internal memory before, no longer give me that option. I am lost as to what to do.
Thanks,
Michael
Since you just reformatted I'd try another hard reset and see if you don't get a better first load.

Tried a hard reset and reformatting the data (not at the same time) and still the same issue. When I install a program, it installs straight to the internal memory and I do not have a choice to load it anywhere else.
Any other suggestions?
Just got off the phone with HTC and it is a known issue with some phones after reformatting internal memory.
Basically issue was proven out by going to windows - setttings - Programs - Memory and looking at the Storage Card tab and there was no card installed....
Solution is to reformat the internal storage with your computer. (hook up the phone to the computer and select "hard drive" rather than "ActiveSync", right click on the drive letter that appears and select Format.
Problem was that with my XP machine it was like trying to format a floppy drive without a disk in the drive. (just kept locking up and giving me errors) My wifes Vista machine was able to format it just fine. (BTW - quick format will not work and you want to format it as FAT32)
I am now back in business.... HTC tech support was great and got my issue resolved for me.

Memory corrupt?

On Friday I flashed new Morna ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469852). Everythig was ok, I've installed all my apps. But in the evening it hang up, only hard reset helped.
Then something happend: my device hard reset or hang up (is does not load then, only hard reset helps) every time when program storage memory (not internal storage) remain about 50mb. I've tried to update everything: ROM, Radio... Nothing...
May be program storage memory corrupted? Is there any tool to diagnostic and repair it?
Post in ROM thread...
You should post this in the thread where you got your ROM, you'll probably get more specified help there.
You can try clearing the internal storage. I had to do this once because a ROM was acting strangely. Why internal storage should affect the ROM I don't know, but it fixed my device.
Start - Settings - System tab - Clear Storage - Select 'Format internal storage only' from the drop-dowm list

HELP! how to skip bad block on my 4gb internal memory

Hi does any one know how to skip bad block on 4gb internal memory of our diamond. I've been searching for a solution but haven't found one that actually fix my problem.
Before this bad block happend to my device it was working fine. It all started when I loaded haret from xdandroid. It works fine on my device for the first few tries and afterwards It wont work.. so I keep on reinstalling xdandroid and fixes the problem after many many tries.. I've notice that files that I save on my internal memory gets corrupted. Images becomes distorted documents got messed up and apps won't install.. this is where it all started.. I've tried alot of solutions. formating using panasonic sd formater, formating from the device, formating using windows, bet problem is still there.. also one thing I've notice on HSPL 1.93 the internal memory format wont work but for HSPL 1.38 it's working ok.
I know that the 4gb internal memory in our diamond is a nand and I'm trying to find a tool or a way that can help us skip or fix badblocks or on our diamond to have the internal memory working properly again. I have found an article regarding nand. I know that there is a samsung nand that is found in our device, if im not mistaken. I found an artice that says that there is 2 basic algorithm in our device the skip and reserve block method. My problem is how to do this on diamond or is this posible on our device.
http://www.data-io.com/pdf/NAND/DataIO/NandProgramming.pdf
Here's the link of the artice that I've found while searching for a solution. Please help is someone know how to do this.

I didnt think you could skip blocks on NAND
Have you tried linux > delete the full partition > create a new
Haven't tried partitioning since I don't have linux and still not familiar with linux emulators.. will try to check this if it will resolve this issue.. do you have a link on how to do this on virtual linux machine?
Please help!
Anyone having issues with corrupted files on their 4 GB internal memory? Please help! I’ve tried to do info 8 on MTTY and it's not showing any bad blocks on my internal memory. I'm really lost on how to resolve this problem that I am experiencing.
mtty is for your nand (doesn´t fix bad blocks though as far as I know) ... if you have corrupted files on your internal storage; back all the stuff up and format fat 32 with hp formatting tool. that´s it.
"It all started when I loaded haret from xdandroid." - that is what started the problem ... hp tool is the key - you can find it in the xdandroid thread
cheers ede
Tried almost everything.. My internal memory still is unsuable.. it can still be detected by my diamond and as a storage device. What I noticed is that pictures, videos and apps gets corrupted. Document files still can be viewed..
What am i gonna doo....
