[Q] cyanogen 6.0 cant detect SD Card - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i downloaded cyanogen 6.0 today, and flashed with clockworkmod recovery, but the sd card cant be detected (sd & 2nd sd), even i plugged in the usb cable, a removable disk comes out but not accessible. So i restore to my previous rom which is cyanogen 4.2.14.1 with nandroid, everything back to normal. I wonder what caused this. btw, im using the OEM 1GB sd card partitioned as 517 sd + 342 second sd + 96 swap
one more question is, when i do the backup with "ROM manager", it always eat up the sd card space and says no enough sd space, anyone using rom manager has the same issue ?

Formatting/Partitioning SdCard

I have a Transcend 8gb Class 6 microSDcard.
I turned the phone off to put the card in a card reader to reformat....i noticed that in Paragon Partition Manager 10 Server, that my sdcard is only showing as it being all a ext3 partition.
However windows vista can still read the fat32 partition and so can the g1....I am running JACHero's Roms...I have the new radio/spl and cyno's recovery. My g1 is working fine.
I just want to format the sdcard so i can put a updated JACHero rom on it.
Have you tried using Ubuntu? I find that better than paragon.
heres what i did...and it worked. i got the jailbrake cupcake and put my sd card in a usb sd reader and treated as if the droid was plugged by usb then put the original rom put the sd back in my droid alt s and boom it booted thank god cause i was about to spazz if i had to buy a new phone

Switching Micro sd card after rooting

Hi there to everybody. i have a Tmobile G1 :
Installed Htc Hero Sense, Firmware version is 1.5. I have 1gb micro sd card on it when i root the phone. now i am replacing it with 8gb micro sd card.
every time i put the 8gb sd card on it, the phone keeps freezing and will not continue to boot up. i then returned the 1 gb sd card and the phone is working properly. how can i change the sd card to a bigger capacity without the phone freezing? do i have to re-root and restart the whole process on the phone? any help, guides will help. Thank you in advance.
......umm...lol..imma leave this one alone
just copy the content of the old sdcard, some Hero rom store some info there
it wont hurt to try it
also, did you have any partitions on the old sd?
partition your sd card and flash a 1.6 rom with auto a2sd
I did try to copy the whole contents of the sd card, but it does same thing, freezing and it wont boot up.
using 1 gb flash the Amon RA recovery image....and then do a Bart Backup...this backup will backup all your apps and also the rom..then put that backup file and put into the new sd card...and then go into recovery and do a bart restore....

Um...partly true but you don't need to install a 1.6 donut ROM
TO OP
You have to repartition your SD card (~7400 MB Fat32, 512 EXT3, 96-128 Swap?) whichever you want.
If you want to reinstall all your paid/free apps, then you will have to back them up on your 1 GB card using a backup app (App manager, astro) or just use Mybackuppro if you want to back up everything (contacts, data, etc)
transfer the backupped files back onto your newly partitioned 8 GB card. Boot up the phone with the new card in it, and reinstall all your apps
OR the easier way (but you lose all your data)
Partition card
wipe phone/dalvik/ etc
fresh Reinstall
The old sd card appeared to be partioned.
you need to make sure your swap and ext. partition is the same size as the one you have on your old one. ex. if your 1gb have 96swap, 512ext. then your new one should have the same swap and ext size. rest goes to fat32. First thing you should do is do a nan + ext. backup using the recovery image. Then copy everything from the old SD card to the new SD card. Then do a nan restore. That should restore everything on your phone plus whatever is stored in the ext. partition. The likely cause of your phone freezing is because the stuff in the ext. partition is not there anymore.

what he said
when i got my mytouch coming from a g 1i simply did what the guy did above me and with amon_ra's recovery its very simply
The Unlockr.com has a tutorial thats very helpfull if you need a visual. I was a nubie once and visuals always helped.

[q] help!! Stuck in recovery...!

I read ur forum on partitioning SD card for app2sd n I seem to be having a similar problem. I recently flashed amon ra 1.6.2 thru clockwork mod on my HTC hero...I was trying to install a custom Rom cm 6.2 stable. I booted into recovery n did a nand backup n it worked fine. But when I chose the option to install zip from SD card it said no zip found. That was after I did a complete wipe of the system data. And as I tried to restore the nand backup I get n error message saying the directory cannot be found. So now I'm completely stuck. I was wondering wat I can do at this point. I was reading about partitioning the SD card n I was thinking I should try ur suggestion...I already tried rebooting several times n still the same problem. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.
Re-partition SD card = wipe all data off card. Sounds like you wiped your card of the back-up image as well as the .zip file for the ROM. Is that what you did?
Do you have an external card reader? Is there a .zip file on the card?

How to remove JUST ClockWork from internal memory?

I have installed CM7 on the SD card and NOT the Nook's internal memory, so if the SD card is taken out I still have my stock Nook ROM.
However, I have installed ClockWorkRecovery through the CM7 ROM (installed in SD Card) and now I would like to remove just CWR, since I cannot receive Nook official ROM update if CWR is installed.
Is there an easy way to do this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914690
Thanks for the link, but the solution given there does not work.
The problem I am having is because CWR is installed on the Nook internal memory, but CM7 is installed in the SD card.
As of right now, I CANNOT BOOT INTO CWR. When I boot into CM7 (installed in SD card and not Nook's Internal memory) and try to reboot to CWR, the Nook will boot but then just go back to CM7
Did you try shutting the NC off, removing the SD card, then holding the power and 'n' button? I don't know if that will work unless you've got a custom rom...

thanks guys but i dont follow your help!
i downloaded aroma.zip installed in the internal memory of the phone launched it from the recovery menu but this sw is all mess up and i cant work with it!
i would like to know if i can install cooked rom from the internal memory of the phone,i guess not cause if i do so the phone will just hang up cause i can share the rom and the installation space right?
since im quite sure i cant use the internal memory of the phone i can only use the external sd card to install the cooked rom but it looks like u are telling me that i have no hopes to use the external sd card to install the rom so....what am i supposed to do?i cant use the internal memory,i cant use the external sd card so....what am i supposed to use???????????????????????????
thanks again!
I am not even sure why you made the assumption that you can't use the internal memory in the first place. The internal SD as it is sometimes referred to is separate from the OS. Case in point, factory restoring your phone will not wipe your internal memory.
So just use the internal memory.
