Hi so I am running Vegan 7.0 rc1 and I really am enjoying it but i am trying to get an old 8gb sd card to work in the additional storage spot. how am i supposed to do this and why is it that when ever I remove the card and then restart it bricks my loader and i have to repartition the onboard sdcard. Any help would be greatly appreciated guys thanks.
I am having the same issue with a 32gb ADATA card. Im hesitant to try it again as my Titanium Backup skills are not up to par so Id be reloading everything manually.

Wondering if anybody here can help me out. I was cleaning out and backing up my SD card yesterday. Since then I have not been able to install anything straight to my SD card (installation unsuccessful error).
Apps will install to the phone and I can move them back and forth if App2SD is enabled. This is only a problem when space is low and it automatically installs to SD. Did I delete something needed on the SD card? Am I just stupid?
Nexus One - 2.2
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Same problem
I am having the exact same problem. cannot update an app that is on the sd card. Also cannot download an app that installs directly to sd card (for instance angry birds, had to start phone up without sd to install then reinsert sd and move app there. Using nexus one unrooted 2.2 if anyone knows a way to fix this please let me know
Update: okay so i moved all of my files to my computer from my sd. Formatted the memory card. And now it works again
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.
Hi Everyone,
I was able to successfully install honeycomb on my NC and it runs surprisingly well. My only problem is that when I check the available storage the internal memory only shows .92GB of total memory, is this normal? This was only my second attemp at rooting an android device so it is very possible that I may have missed something in the process but I thought I was pretty thorough. Can someone tell me how much internal memory should be available after a fresh install of honeycomb on the NC? Also if I have done something wrong can someone point me int he direction or correcting my mistake? I'm guessing I need to reformat, repartition the internal SD card and reinstall honeycomb. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I'm running the deeper blue V4 honeycomb rom Using Clockwork mod 3.0.0.5 from SD card.
I am having the same problem. I used a 16GB SD card. After writing image to it, it shows on my computer as 109MB free of 115MB. I plug it into my NOOK. Under Storage SD card, it shows total space of 1.25GB and available space of 1.14GB. This is without the market installed.

Thank you. So that means doesn't matter how big the SD card is, the size is determined by /data and can't be changed because of the build?
The fix to this is in the HC SD card thread. Take the care out, plug it back into the PC you wrote it from, and run EASUS partition manager to extend partition 4 (data) to fill the remainder of the SD card. my 8 GB card wound up with ~6GB data partition

Thank you for your pointer. I did a search and lots thread came up but I still couldn't find what I am looking for. Could you by any chance post the link pleeeeeeease? THANK YOU!
Google partition-tool.xxx and download the home edition.
I had it run on XP and worked very well.
I think there might be some confusion here, at least on my part. The fix you suggested seems to be for fixing the partitions on an external SD card. I am running HC off of the internal memory and have this problem. I can use the NookColorUMS app and mount the data partition so that it shows up in disk management in windows but I am unable to manipulate the partition so I cannot edit it. I also have a partition called "Media" which is 5GB. It seems that I need to move those 5 GB over to the data partition but I cannot figure out how to accomplish this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
same here
I have the exact same problem
I was able to use the procedures in this conversation
[HOW-TO] Repartitioning the NC back to 1GB/data, 5GB/media
to repartition and reformat my internal drive, although I did end up reloading Honeycomb at the same time, even though it said that it wouldn't affect the OS. Noobie that I am, I affected the OS :-(
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.
Thanks to all the developers here, I have been enjoying the nightly CM7 running from the eMMC for about a week now. I got the nook color, liked the B&N interface, but since I wanted to do more with it, I decided to install CM7. Not knowing better, I used the easiest way to do it. With a borrowed 1GB card, I installed the nightly build to eMMC. Without much problems, I got it to where I really like it - EXCEPT - I miss the B&N UI for reading.
I now have a new SanDisk C4 4 GB microSD card but I can't figure out what I want to do. Ideally, I want to move my install from eMMC (8GB) to SD Card (4GB) and then restore eMMC to stock 1.2. I already know how to do step 2. But I don't know how to do step 1.
The other option would be to restore to stock first, then install CM7 AGAIN to the new SD Card. The only problem is that I will have to redo the little tweaks I have done over the week. I like the way it works now and don't want to do everything again. In fact, I like what I have so much, I am willing to give up B&N UI. Can I backup and restore?
Any suggestions appreciated.
