My Internal Sd card umounts from time to time by itself so i have to mount it again, did start on last firmware i flashed. Anyone else has notice this?
Only time it has done that for me is when I have copied photo's/video's to the internal card and it re-mounts the card to run media scanner.
I haven't had this issue. As the above poster mentions i can see it doign a media scan once i unmounted the internal sd card from a mass storage function when it was connected to my PC
No such problem for me, everything works fine on jg1 with mcr r2

I saw mine doing this Unmount/Remount thing last night, and I'm running stock ROM (too lazy (or scared?)) to do the rooting/flashing jump
No problem with that here...
Have you wiped you device after flashing the rom?

What's up guys. Anyone else have an issue with their Nexus not recognizing your SD card after the Froyo update? I have a 16 GB class 2 Sandisk. The phone recognizes the phone in recovery without any issue. I tried formatting the card and also reflashing Froyo, but I still get nothing. Any ideas? Thanks!
Same issue here. Stock card that came with the N1, have never had an issue...now it keeps telling me it's safe to remove, and when I go into SD settings and mount, it just goes back to that notification over and over. Probably about to restore to cyan 5.0.6 for now...
I took my card out. Using my SD card reader, backed up files, formatted, SD card in phone, connect to computer. And it worked. Then loaded my files back on. Btw I also have a 16gb card

Yeah...try just popping the card out the phone and then reinsert.
It seems like i'm still having this issue. I decided to stick with CM 5.8 until they officially released 2.2. It doesn't matter if I install the official update or a rom based on 2.2, my phone still refuses to recognize my card. I've searched all over the net and i've yet to run into anyone else with this issue. It sees the card fine in recovery and when using CM 5.8. I've wiped the phone, formatted the card and i'm not sure what else to try.
Same problem here, also a 16Gb SDCard
works 100% in 2.1, but refuses to work with Froyo.
Any workarounds, or is this a bug in the current Froyo builds?
Suggestion is to copy the contents of your to your computer, then format, and try again

I think I have this too - with a workaround
hi,
On my Nexus one I am running Froyo OTA.
I noticed that when I turn on my phone the SD card is not fully recognized. All the icons of my apps appear blank for all SD moved apps. I tried switching cards and reformatting and everything but it always happens.
I found one workaround which usually works:
1. When turned on and apps not recognized, run ASTRO files manager
2. Even though card is not fully recognized you can access all files on the SD from ASTRO. Now run the SD Card Tool from the menu.
3. After the scan is finished showing usage of directories on SD, I close the ASTRO which twice hitting the back key and when I return to the home screen all apps are re-enabled and icons are updated. From here on everything works.
Hope this is the same issue you are having and this helps you to solve it.
Perhaps Gingerbread will make this obsolete

What you're describing is a function of Froyo's Apps2SD together with either custom launcher (LauncherPro, ADW, and such), or long loading time after reset. It's a known and much discussed issue, help files for both custom launchers suggest force-closing the launcher a couple of minutes after reset.
It doesn't have anything to do with SD card not being recognized.
There is no such thing as "partially recognized" SD card, it's either working or it doesn't, and when it doesn't - no files can be seen on it at all.
I formatted both internal and external cards and flashed a clean rom because the sd cards were full of crap and clutter but now when i try to use a file explorer it says '''SD CARD UNMOUNTED OR NOT PRESENT'''
I know its off formating the internal but what will make it recognise it again?

Every other time I boot
I have this exactly every other time I boot. Always need to reboot twice in order to keep my SD Card working. No joke - had the same issue with two different cards.
the way i fixed it was to clear the data/cach in the manage applications on the es file manager or what ever file manager ur using
Hi everyone,
I am having a severe problem with my external micro sd card and I am looking for a solution. I will try to give as much info as possible here.
Last night I connected my captivate to my pc using USB mass storage. I forgot to disconnect the phone from pc and also forgot to press STOP usb mass storage on my captivate and turned my pc off. By the time I realized, it was too late. So, i disconnected the usb cable from pc. After a few seconds, the captivate's notification showed "media scanner running" as always and started scanning my internal and external SD card.
Just when it said "scanning completed", the phone became unresponsive and went straight to the splash screen. It did not completely reboot the phone but just went straight to the splash screen and turned on again. After turning on, it again started to scan the sd card as usual and the same thing happened again. It started happening again and again in cycles. So i took the battery out and restarted 3 4 times but everytime the phone started and scanned the sd cards (which it normally does) it kept going back to splash screen.
I was running mosaic 3 diet 2.3.3 rom at that time and decided to quickly flash again. So i flashed back to AT&T stock using 1-click ODIN. and everything seemed to be ok. I then, again flashed custom 2.3.3 rom using the CORRECT procedure but it started happening again. So i went back to stock using odin and everything was OK. SD card worked fine. I tried to flash custom rom couple more times with and without the sd card inserted but the issue doesnt go away. I also tried flashing 2.2 rogers STOCK but the problem is still there.
I then took my micro sd card out and that seemed to solve the problem (for custom roms). The phone started working normally again using custom rom but as soon as I inserted the sd card, it wud go back to the splash screen and do a mini restart again.
The only rom that didnt give me any problems with sd card was AT&T's 1-click odin to stock 2.1. no errors or splash screen restarts with STOCK rom.
i also tried different micro sd card but no luck. I tried formatting both internal and external sd cards too. nothing helped.
I hope i provided enough info. Please help
Thanks
can someone please help?
Have you tried mounting it in a card reader and running an fs check on it?

You could do what was started with card reader, and if that doesn't help you could format the sd card after everything is copied from it. If you don't have reader you could probably do adb to dump with phone off. I think it is pull/external.sd (not shore someone should correct me on command soon). To format it is control panel, hardware, and device managment. Then find external sd and format it. You should format with FAT32.( To mount external sd for that I think you could also do from cwm recovery.)...(if need help with any of that just pm me)

It may be different on android, but on my last phone it was highly advised not to format when using the phone as a card reader. I bought a cheap USB model at Newegg for ~$5 that handles more card types than you can shake a baby at. Its proven to be well worth the cash.

Have you tried running the USB mass storage on your device again? I know Ubuntu 10.10 has a cool appliction for formatting and things like that. Ive used it before to fix something, boot it off of a disc too.
Heres some links
Ubuntu cd setup page- http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/download
How to format something using Ubuntu- http://www.ehow.com/how_4929061_format-hard-drive-ubuntu.html
I would guess that the MicroSD is a FAT32...
I can and I have formatted the sd card several times. Both internal and external sd cards give me this problem.
I was able to mount usb storage once the phone started and while it was scanning my sd cards (which it usually does), i VERY QUICKLY went into settings, connected my usb to pc and mounted the sd card. The phone kept restarting(or going back to splash screen and starting again) while it was mounted. I also noticed that once it was mounted the sd card was completely accessible. i.e, i could delete/copy/transfer etc carry out all functions normally.
I formatted the sd cards using FAT32 (both internal and external too) but it didnt help.
However, after trying many times I was able to run my phone with the MOSAIC DIET III 2.3.3 rom and it has been working since then. But it doesnt work on any other rom right now, specially on Serendipity VII
The phone is working properly as it used to for now but I am afraid it will happen again when I flash another rom or go back to stock.
Any other suggestions?
Honestly, my suggestion if its under warranty us to flash back as close to stock as possible(wipe all caches, master clear, orbital nuke, etc) then take it to att, or purposefully brick it and tell them kies fubared it.

You did remember to remove your external sd card and sim when you did this, right?
I have been flashing since I've got the phone (november 2010) and I have done it numerous times. But I never took out my sim and/or external sd card while flashing any rom or while going back to stock. Never had a problem either. Maybe once or twice I did remove it but only when the intructions for a particular rom specifically asked to do so, otherwise no.
So, no I actually didnt remove the sim and sd card when I flashed back to stock.
Does it matter?
Yes, it can corrupt the sim/sdcard. it's more based on unluck of the draw. I did the flash to gb bootloaders with my sim/external in. I guess I got lucky

While not normally, Anything that is writting this type of stuff to your phone runs the chance of messing up any is in in the phone. I have had my extrenal sd wiped a few times when flashing
Hi, Im on Rocket rom v23. And yesterday my phone suddenly didnt recognize my sd card. If i go to setting than Storage, its unavailable..does anyone know what to do?
Remive sd card n try scan on pc with antivirus. If pc recognize drive letter but not content, format it.

Just wondering if you've recently installed any apps?
I've had this problem occur where the Android file structure on the card became corrupt, I'm fairly sure it's related to PowerAmp, but it could also be related to Norton security scan on boot.
Each time, when I put the card in PC, file structure is restored, then Android will recognise it again, as Dr K said.

does the pc recognize it? if so, you can simply save all your stuff on the pc and format as fat32..
i had a problem with my sd card before, then, the memory was dissapearing. I got a new sd card. it was ok for a dew weeks, but now, i cant download anything or even move any file from my pc using usb, even when there is some memory left ! when i move a song into sd card, it stays there until I unplug usb, then it just disappars. Sometimes i cant listen to songs, see pictures or use some apps in sd card because they disappears, but most of the time it fixes after reboot.
any soliutions for this kind of problem ?
I dony really know about that. It may be rom issue. Some said that u must have some free space on sd card, u cant fully fill your sd card.

Hi xdo,
Can you give us info what rom and kernel you use?
In my assumption maybe your card is damage.
Please clarify some things for better assistance
rom I'm using is Froyobread v023b, but i used it about 4 month without any problems, kernel I'm using is stock one, I never unlocked bootloader. I dont think that the sd cart is demaged because it is almost like new. Today, remounted the card, rebooted my phone and i was able to download some pictures to my phone, but after a few mins i wasn't able to do anything again.
Did you formated it ?
Sent from my X8 running nAa and D_d piece of art called MiniCM9.
yes, i formated it before using. then, i moved everything from my last sd to the new one
try wipe it with partition wizard if it help...
Virus maybe?
You say you copied all your files from the old to the new. maybe the old had a particularly vicious virus and you copied it to your new card?
if there is a virus, what should I do?
