SD card and G1! HUGE PROBLEM!!! - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I'm having a problem with my G1, bought in UK. I tryed to SPL, and loaded a new Radio. In get the following when I go in fastboot:
HBoot-0.95.000
CPLD-4
Radio-2.22.19.26I
My problem is that the SD card is not recognized anymore, and when I put a card into the device I get a format message. This is what I get with ADG log cat:
I/vold ( 46): New MMC card 'SU01G' (serial 16941020) added @ /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:e624

I tryed with several SD cards, Sandisk or Kingstone
Do you have any ideas about it?
I can't load any Rom and when I'm in bootmode I cannot use fastboot command, no skateboard Android at all!!!
Suggestions? Do you think it's an hardware issue? Have you evere experienced something like that? PLS!!

"D/vold ( 46): Filesystem check failed (not a FAT filesystem)"
Format the card in the computer, load the rom you want, then format the ext/swap if you wanted.

I did it already with no resolt at all! tryed in Fat/32 and ext2, the SD card is not recognized

This is the command I used to format the sd card:
format *: /FS:FAT32 /A:4096
I didn't try with an ext2 filesystem. Can you explain what you mean by "format the ext/swap if you wanted." ?
Thanks a lot for helping!

Format with ext/swap if you want to use those features. Did you format the card in the recovery or from the computer, try in recovery.

use a card reader to (maybe) rescue anything u want to keep from ur sd card then format ur card from ur computer. this happened to me before and this method worked for me, however the problem kept reccuring after a while si i got a new card.

Hi guys,
tnx for helping. Unfortunately I'm still unable to access the SD. I formatted the SD (more than one card) with another andorid phone, tried also to start in recovery, but no luck. I'm afraid is an hw problem, or may be a problem with the rom or radio I'm using at the moment. The phone it's not rooted yet, and with out SD I have no idea on how to solve this problem. Ideas? Is it possible to change the rom without using the SD?

can you mount the phone to a windows computer?
If so, just open my computer, right click on your phone and format it that way.
download all the needed files directly to the PC, move them to the formatted SD card, procede with rooting, installing your rom of choice and getting AmonRAs recovery image. Do a Nandroid+ext backup. Enjoy.
:edit: You said maybe a problem with the rom, but that it was not rooted yet... that doesnt make sense. Tell us EVERYTHING about what you have done if what I said above does not work.

Problems when restarting with sd card in and partion help! Thanks

I'm having some problems, after an update, when I reboot my phone I get the openhome force close thing, I did all these searches and found people saying keep hitting force close and enter, well that didn't work, but i did notice once I rebooted without my sd card my phone would boot up fine. I'm running a rooted g1 (Cyanogen 4.0.4). So I decided to delete openhome from my sd since it's not in Market on my phone. But, everytime I boot with the sdcard in, I still get the openhome force close thing. I deleted the apk and searched for openhome and don't find anything else on my sdcard
Another thing, I didn't know if my sdcard was saving apps, a guy told me I needed 3 partions (fat32, ext2, and linux swap) I have Paragon Partion Manager 9.5. I have a 2gb sdcard made by Sandisk. I partion the first at 1.5, ext2 at 350mb, but when I go to make the 3rd partion (linux swap) it says no room, I even tried reducing the size of ext2 to 200mb but it still says not enough room for the third partion. Furthermore when I put my sd card in the G1 it's not showing the card as partioned. It says 1.393mb total space on sd card, then for sd secondary it says unavailable.
I'm lost and to make matters worse, I just rebooted my phone with sd card in and after a long android loop it went to a black screen and stayed there. I rebooted without sd card and it booted fine. I'm getting frustrated. thanks
So I deleted partions and did everything again.
My computer is showing fat32 1.2 GB, ext2 at 313mb, but it still wont let me make a 3rd partion, it says not enough space. Then when i put the sd card in my G1 it only shows 1.2gb total space on sd card, then for sd secondary it says unavailable.

i'm a little lost, do i do that in terminal emulator or do i boot with (home key and power key) then type in all that, do i risk bricking my phone when doing all that. before I do all that do I need to format my sd and delete all partions...i'm so lost i thought with Cyanogen I wouldn't have to do much to get rolling with apps2sd, is there some app i can purchase that will do all this for me?
this is all done in the recovery console. assuming you have cm-recovery 1.4.
boot with home+pwr
goto console
type:
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
type:
print
result:
Model: Unknown (unknown)
Disk /dev/block/mmcblk0: ####MB
**we need the ####MB number**
there shouldn't be anything listed below the following:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
if there is type "rm #" replace # with the partition number
when i enter "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0" it says not found, thanks

No service, independent of ROM

Hello people,
while trying out some Eclair(-/Hero) ROMs today, i suddenly had problems testing since, whatever eclair ROM i flashed, it just wouldn't boot. logcat gave me errors about "ConnectionService" not being able to start.... so i checked whether my nandroid backup of CM 4.2.10.1 would do the trick, however, i had no signal there as well! whenever i tried to enter settings->Wireless->Mobile i got a settings FC! any ideas?
You answered your own problem
Look @ the SPL in your sig it says "Hard SPL"
EClair roms need Haykuro
You sealed your won fate.
so not even flashing the new spl and radio will solve his problem?

It could also be a hardware problem with the phone's antenna being damaged or broken.
@OP try another rom like enom/dwang/wesgarner those are 1.6 roms so try then report back
Notice:They dont need the ADP image to be installed, just wipe and install the rom.
Well Ace42, it wasn't the SPL ( i flashed haykuro yesterday, just forgot to update sig ) it somehow works now, but i've got problems getting back to CM now. here's the logcat:

Problems Flashing (some) Eclair ROMs

I have a G1, currently running Cyanogen 4.2.12.1 (4.2.13.x kills my battery).
Code:
Phone: White T-Mobile G1
ROM: Cyanogen
SPL: Hykuros Death/Danger
Radio: 2.22.19.26i
Recovery: RA-dream-v1.5.2
SD Card: 4GB
Swap: Enabled
Fastboot screen is as follows:

RADIO-2.22.26I

I have played around with dozens of Donut and Cupcake ROMs, and settled on Cyanogen, because it seemed to be the most stable.
Now, with the Eclair ROMs for the G1 finally hitting the scene (now that they have a camera...props to NCommander), you can only imagine how excited I was to give them a shot.
I have had the 'prerequisites' for a while: Haykuro's SPL, SD card, rooted phone, RA's recovery image, etc...completely prepared for the Eclair releases.
There have been a few Eclair roms that have been released recently, and for some reason, some of them will not load. (specifically the one by manup, and one branched off of his by Herver). It will flash just fine, but when it boots, I get errors such as this:

I have tried partitioning my SDCard with different size swap, fat32, and ext partitions...I have tried using ext2, 3, and 4, all to no avail. I have tried different combinations of wiping (before as well as after loading the rom), reverting back to stock firmware and such, then trying, and nothing seems to work.
As I am sure you all can imagine, I am quite frustrated. Does anyone out there know what is causing these issues, and can perhaps point me in the right direction to rectifying them? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT: One thing I failed to mention previously was that I am able to flash Hero ROMs, and from what I have read, the Hero ROMs require the same setup as the Eclair ROMs (Haykuro SPL, ext/swap, etc). Mentioning that, it brings me to believe even more that there is just one tiny item I am missing, but can not pinpoint it.
I have done more trial and errors with this, to absolutely no avail. I am at a 100% loss...surely someone has some clue as to what is going on?
Hi, was wondering if you are using the same SD card and just trying different partitions, what kind of SD card do you have and do you have more than one SD card, because I would suggest trying a brand new freshly partitioned, with no files but the files you intend to flash, on the card.
Let me know.

Using your recommendation, halfsight, I tried with a different SD card, and came up with the same results. Good thought, but no avail. Any other ideas? Also, is my SPL the proper one? I am told it is Haykuro's. Info is as follows: (also in the OP)

So I received my new 8 GB Class 6 SD Card in the mail today, and tried that card to flash with and such...still having problems. Any ideas?

EMMC bug, intermittent issue

WARNING: This is a personal solution, not a perfect guide. Use your own knowledge and experience to decide if and how this applies in your case.
CASE: SGT P1000 16G having an intermittent issue with the emmc controller. Bootloop in Gingerbread, Encryption Unsuccesful in CM9.
Cyanogenmod 9.0.0
haf times you get this at boot:
<6>[ 3.063335] mmc0: new high speed MMC card at address 0001
<6>[ 3.063581] mmcblk0: mmc0:0001 SEM16G 14.8 GiB
<6>[ 3.063908] mmcblk0: p1 p2 p3
the other half:
<3>[ 6.057671] mmc0: error -110 whilst initialising MMC card
NOTE: if the internal emmc was 100% down there was a simple case. Get a good external SD card, partition it FAT32 + EXT4, manipulate vold.fstab to have external FAT32 as /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard.
In the absence of the mmc0, mmc1 ext4 becomes automatically mmcblk0p2 and gets mounted as /data.
When the defect is intermittent, you will end with 2 /data meaning basically 2 devices, 2 sets of applications and 2 sets of sytem data. Hard to accept.
WHAT can be done ?
Go to /etc/init.d and add a line at the end of 90userinit:
mount -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,barrier=1,data=ordered,noauto_da_alloc -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 /data
if mmc0 fails, then the external EXT4 will be /data
if mmc0 initializes, the the internal EXT4 /data (mmcblk0p2) mounted by the startup scripts will be replaced by the external EXT4 mmcblk1p2
Extra NOTE: without manipulating vold.fstab you get /sdcard (internal FAT32) and /emmc (external FAT32) when mmc0 succedes and only /emmc (external FAT32) when mmc0 fails. Without /sdcard, many application do not work.
swap the lines as follows:
# internal sdcard
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc 1 /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0
# external sdcard
dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc1
IMPORTANT: the original vold.fstab has the last line
dev_mount emmc /mnt/emmc auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2
change mmc2 with mmc1 otherwise you end up in a bootloop.
[email protected]:/sys/devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host # ls -l
drwxr-xr-x root root 2014-02-17 14:44 mmc1
Honestly I don't know how emmc gets mounted with the original fstab.
Test everything with a cheap micro SDHC and, if everything works fine, buy a big Class 10 one. Your tab will move faster than the undefective ones

Move to SD Card - Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space.

Hi All,
I've just done a clean install (wipe data, system and caches) of CM12.1 (2015-09-06) on my Nook HD 8GB. I've also installed the Micro version of the OpenGapps and SuperSU - all working fine. When I signed in to Play Store it automtically installed some of the apps that I had previously installed - these are working ok as well. As this is the 8GB version of the NookHD I would like to move some larger apps to the external SD Card (on CM11 I used the swap SDCARD hack). In CM12.1 you now get the option to Move to SD Card on apps directly if you have an external sd card. If I click that button I get a message stating "Couldn't move app. Not enough storage space."
If I run logcat I get the following for this operation:
