NEXUS ONE SD Slot problem - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my N1 microSD card slot, card is constantly ejected, I cant put it in, physically, the 'thing' that supposes to hold it in place doesn't do its job... I didn't find anything on how to fix it, can someone suggest something, or give me some useful links ...
Tnx

I have the same problem except mine gets in sometimes

I see that catch mechanism (which is a part of spring mechanism) doesn't catch the SD card everything else is fine ..

sd card's not working :(

hi there
i had a sandisk sd card 512mb for a while, then i had broken the touchscreen. anyways. its fixed, but it had to be disassembled many times. anyways after those the card didn't work on device nor on my computer. so i thought it must have been the sd card. So:
i've bought trascend 150x 2gb sd card, formatted with fat(fat16) and when i am trying to put it into my pda it doesn't easily fit. i have to push it little harder.
after that windows prompts me whether i want to format it now. i've tried numerous times either formatted or not, my pda just does not recognize the sdcard. its not shown under explorer nor under settings.
what could be wrong? the sdcard works perfectly when i hook it up to my computer...
hmm very wierd. i tried again and again, it read the card and said that its 1.12gb after couple of seconds, i lost all again..

[Q] g1 sd card issues

so i just got my buddies old g1 to mess around with. it didnt function at all when he gave it to me, had to doa hard reset to get it to boot. but the problem im having is the sd car says its blank and doesn't format or anything. ive tried different sd cards and they all work in the comp,i reformatted 2 of em. ive searched google for an answer but cant get it to happen. anyone got any suggestions or could the internal sd slot be shot?
does recognize when a sd card is inserted and removed
does not recognize or format any data on the sd card
is there any way to fix this? and would it be a hardware issue or software?
It sounds to me like the sd card reader built into the phone is broken.
Yea that's what I thought, is that seperate from the mainboard?

Possible SD card problem with some apps.

A friend of mine has a LG Marquee from Boost Mobile and he is having a problem which is a little weird.
The when I install Speech Synthesis from the market place it installs fine but when I go to run the program it wants to install data to the SD card which is normal. But this isn't normal. It doesn't detect the SD card and wants me try again.
This is a new 32 GB card from Sandisk he bought two of them and they both have the same issue. I tried a 2, 4 and 16 GB card thinking there was something wrong with that but they didn't work either. It just wont in see the SD card.
This is not the only program. The stock music app doesn't see the music on the SD card either.
When saving music today to the card from the Android Market place to the SD card it says its full. I know its not there is barely anything on it.
In an effort to fix this I did manage to root the phone. But that didn't seem to help much either...
But I know its working because if I run any other program it finds the card with no problem. I stuck the card in my own phone and it works fine. Sooo...
HELP!!!
Thank you so much..
Hey I have thag same phone but I don't have that issue like your friend is havong with his. Have you tried to format it in the phone? I took my old 8gb sd card out of my old android phone and it works fine. The phone itself may be defective. If u haven't tried to format the card in the phone I would do that first

I did that with other cards and with no avail. So I'm not sure if its a defective phone because the SD card reads normally on other apps with no problem.

SD Card issues - SOLVED!

Hi,
got a strange problem here.
i bought a raspberry pi kit from Maplin (£80) which included a class 6 transcend 4gb SD card.
the card was working fine until one day i went to boot the RPi and it didnt boot at all, no ACT light flash... nothing!!
i took the SD card out and re-flashed a backup image of my Rasbian to the card and still nothing.
i downloaded NOOBS and tried that after formatting with the SDformatter 4.0. still nothing.
I used my camera SD card in the PI and it boots fine!
any ideas.
I have tried RPI-UPDATE and erasing all the partitions off the sd card and formatting again.
I just have no idea why it wont work.
Bad se card i guess.
Discard it and be happy
The sad card works ok in my camera. I took a few hundred photos on it and it didn't complain!!

Your card is just bad, otherwise it would work in the pi, maybe it works well in the camera but just not in the raspberry pi

You can refer to this list of SD card that is compatible with Raspberry Pi.
Google this keyword "raspberry pi sd card compatibility" click on the first link.
Sorry XDA not allowing me to post link
I had a similar problem. It worked in my camera but not the pi. On my mac in disk utility I tried secure erase (overwrite the card with zeros) and it said that the disk was indeed bad. The camera only uses parts of the disk, pi uses all of it. Try overwriting the disk with zeros, you may find out it is indeed bad. Hope that helps good luck

Thanks for all your help. I've tried overwriting with 0's and it never complained. I will try some sdcard checking software and see what that says.

Try using Wind32DiskImage to create a new image on the SD card, and then try again.
Worked for me with a similar issue

Thanks for your help throughout the thread. I now have a second SD card that has died on me too! went out and bought a 16gb Sandisk which has worked for a while and now its stopped working all together. the Pi boots off another SD card I have lying around but not the 16gb, it was working one day then decided not to work the next, when the PI boots up I get no ACT light at all.
There has to be a fix for this issue, By googling I found a huge amount of people suffering from the same issues, some find resolutions by destroying the partitions on the card and re-formatting, others by simply re-writing the img. None of those solutions work on my 4gb and 16gb sd's now.
Is there any utilities out there that can properly test the flash memory for errors?
Cheers in advance.

So! After giving up on my Pi for quite some time i got bored and rather than install another rom on my phone i decided to actually check the RPi.
It seems the case i have been using has been pushing against the sd card which in turn has slightly damaged the sdcard slot. Applying a slight bit of pressure to the card slot when turning on makes the sd card work! Replacing the sdcard slot is easy peasy... time to get my soldering iron out! ☺☺☺
Thanks for all your help.
