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
Not sure if this is the right place to post this...
I've been on Cyanogen for a while, and Paul's Desire ROM seems stable enough now to use. I downloaded the Apps2SD version and tried booting with the SD card (it's an 8GB, no idea which class but very it's reliable, has a 1536mb ext4 partition for apps, works great with cyanogen 5.0.5.3 a2sd) but it just played the boot animation over and over again. I took the SD card out and it booted fine, but of course you can't just put the SD card in when the phone's on on a Nexus One. So can I fix this without re-formatting and losing all my apps, or should I just get the non-apps2sd version
I got the same error here...
Does anybody know how to fix it?
Same here any help!
Did you guys setup your SD correctly to work with the App2SD version? ext2,3,4 partition?
I just got my "new" nook and tried to boot Froyo 0.6.8 from an SD card. It just gets stuck at the blue ANDROID_ screen. I tried Froyo 0.6.7 and redoing 0.6.8 but it never got past ANDROID_. I'm using a new Transcend 4GB class 6 card. I first tried writing it using WinImage and my laptop's built in card reader, but when that card didn't boot I tried using a USB card reader and Win32diskimager. The Nook came with 1.1 on it and I haven't done anything to the internal rom.
Any ideas? How long should it stay on the Android_ screen if its working?
Did you figure this out?
This sounds like the classic failure described with 16GB cards on multiple threads. There's a nice consolidated thread on cards that are known to work. I'd check that. I have froyo working beuatifully on an 8Gb class6 transcend card.
Most likely you have some glitch on the card. I would do a complete deep wipe of the card (e.g. using SDformatter, all options). Then reflash with win32diskimager, then expand the SDcard partition with EASUS
it should boot in a couple of minutes tops the first time round.
I looked at those threads about cards before I bought one and the Transcend 4gb, class 6 I got is one that seemed to work.
I haven't been able to get the nook to boot off any card. I tried doing the format suggested and tried another 1gb PNY card with the bootable clockwork. I've tried writing with the internal SD writer in my laptop and with a Kodak (sakar) usb writer and with Win32DiskImager and WinImage.
I suppose the USB writer I have might not be good, but I don't want to get another one without knowing its one that works. So far I don't know whether the problem is with the cards I'm writing or for some reason this nook won't boot off SD card.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I probably had a flaky 4gb card. Now it won't format or write whatever I do.
dumb Q, but is the 1gb card you ahve also flaky now too... in which case it might well be the reader?
Will your nook stock OS read the SD card? (e.g. throw some photos ont here and see if the nook will show them) that way eliminate the nook.
There's some older threads that suggest first formatting the SD card with the nook stock OS, but I've never needed to do that.
I'd persevere - there's definately some plusses of froyo over the rooted B&N (especially if you use adhoc networks a lot), and you absolutely need nookie froyo as a backup incase you fry something when you take the plunge to CM7 (which is phenomenal, despite being so early in its release)
The 1gb I borrowed seems ok. I managed to boot a card with a bootable clockwork on it. I didn't do anything to Nook stock OS yet. I want to be clear that I can recover if I do first. I did get another reader, but I think it was probably the card. I wasn't able to boot of the 1gb at first because I was making a mistake in unzipping the .tar.gz files.
Do you have any pointers of where to find out about how to use Clockwork recovery?
I am using 0.6.7 on a 8gb class 6 Transcend... it's working great, no issues with booting.
I have a problem with the SD card being unmounted anytime the phone tries to access it. The sd card works fine in wm6x, I installed android from the card. I've tried a 4gb sdhc and 2gb sd, froyo 2.2 and Super Froyo. I also tried the SD fix update from Scoots thread and with that the card isn't recognized at all.
What is the best build right now to try? Is there another update to install? Or is it a setting I need to change?
I'm going to try Scoots build while I wait for a reply.
It appears that the only builds that the SD card is recognized in are Scoots. I have been wondering if any others worked and haven't found on. If anyone knows of another, any input would be appreciated.
I'm using Fat Free Froyo and the SD card mounts fine. Can't install apps to it, but other than that I have no issues with it. Can't remember if I used the "SD Fix" update or not.
Took my first plunge with installing CM on my Nook HD+ yesterday. I installed CM 11 M12. Generally things went well, but this morning, I discovered that my external SD card won't mount.
If I boot the device with the SD card inserted, the Mount SD Card option is enabled in Storage>Settings but doesn't do anything.
If I insert an SD card after the devices is booted, the Mount SD Card option does not enable.
I have repartitioned and formatted the card FAT32 and this has not solved the problem.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Found my problem. Had to reformat the card with SDFormatter. Now all is better.
