[Q] Lost SD card - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I install CM9 but found it had too many issues so I attempted to reinstall CM7 a3.5. It boots but it won't read the SD card and therefore it throws "Force Close" errors. Then I tried to go back to CM9 but it doesn't mount the SD card either and says the card is damaged. But it mounts fine in webOS. Any suggestions?
edit: I solved the problem. Had to run ACMEUninstaller prior to re-installing CM7.

SD card not recognized after Froyo update

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.

[Q] SD card not reconizing apps but is reading photos etc

My micro SD card is partitioned and I have been installing apps to it. The phone does recognize photos, music etc and everything else on the card, although the apps are not reading and loading. Can somebody please help???
When I restart the phone the apps at times do load, but not often. I have tried mounting and un-mounting the sd card in recovery mode but still no luck. Cleaning the card slot also did little to solving my problem. I have also formatted the sd card and did a clean wipe to the phone. The apps were loading but just for 1 day and the problem reoccurs. Completing a diagnosis on the computer to the sd card also did nothing.
I having been running CM6 nightly since it began but the problem recently occurred, so I've ruled that out. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Cheers

[Q] SD card works but can not be opened by some apps. How can i fix it

I apologize if this has been thoroughly discussed here, but I can't seem to find much in my own searches.
I don't know what happened but yesterday after i restarted my N1, most of my apps on SD Card couldn't seemed anymore! Apps are on the list, on the desktop and on the apps settings (without original icon). But my system doesn't connect apps on my sd card.
My sd card is working correctly, no problem is there. System is seeing sd card, can be mounted/unmounted.
I've tried to restart (ofcourse),
I've tried to launch different launcher,
I've tried to flash CM again.
But nothing works
How can i fix it without wiping? I would wipe but the backup app (mybackup pro) gives an error "Unable to open database file". So i don' wanna wipe without backing up.
Interestingly, some apps on SD works, but it says it can not see SD card. For example, Go SMS app can backup sms to sd card. But it can not see sd card.
Please help me...
Note: I'm using CM 7.0.2.1 (default kernel 2.6.37.4)
I had a similar problem recently...what fixed it for me running CHKDSK. Try mounting your sd card, right click on its properties, then go to tools and then error-checking. I checked off both options and ran it. That seems to have fixed my issue, I guess a file was corrupt. Good luck
edit-This is using windows
SD Card was corrupted.
Hi again,
I understand that my SD card was corrupted. I ran chkdsk and it couldn't be completed. It gave an error. I formatted with SDFormatter. No bad sectors or damaged. Finally i had to reinstall all apps again. Not wiped rom.

[Q] SD card issue with CyanogenMod 7 RC1 V3 [Stock kernel] 28/04/2012

I have switched from using default Xperia x8 2.1 to CyanogenMod 7 RC1 V3 found in the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1237930
However, this version of CM7 won't read the SD card. When I go into settings - CyanogenMod Settings - Application, I can't check/uncheck the Internal storage box option. So the SD card is not simply disabled in settings, the system indeed can't see it.
Recovery also doesn't see the SD card. I tried mounting it, formating it, Recovery keeps popping up the "can't write to SD card" (or something similar) error.
However, when I boot up the phone normally, and remove the SD card, phone will notify me that the SD card is being ejected.
SD card is in order, I tried inserting it in another phone, and everything works fine. So that is not the issue.
Can someone please help me with this? I wanted to post this in it's respective thread, but it's impossible because I have less than 10 posts.
Thanks.
Format your Sd card to "FAT32", Backup before Format.
Did that, still the same result. Any other ideas?
Edit: I also tried formatting sdcard to Ext3, still nothing.
I just restored the original 2.1 software via Sony PC companion in the end, and switched to ginger. Everything seems to be working fine now.
You can lock the thread, as far as I am concerned. Thanks anyway.

[Q] SD Errors

Well after flashing anders' cm and flashing the boot, i started getting damaged sd card error while booted up. I've tried changing recovery, vold.fstab, hboot, kernel, radio; nothing works. When i boot into recovery and try to install from sd card it tells me there's an error mounting /sdcard but when i do usb storage it comes up on my computer so i don't think its a faulty sd card, any ideas? Thanks

Try flashing twrp recovery and then my SD card fix or another rom
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda premium
I tried through twrp and it reads the sdcard but not the same one as the one that gets mounted on pc, i even tried to adb push the zip's into /sdcard which twrp read but when i tried to flash it it gave me the mounting error. Now i reinstalled your cm by pushing the zip into /data, i'm going to see if it doesn't work i'll flash another rom.
After installing your cm i installed the other cm build which gave the same error, then i pushed total senseless into /data and installed and when i booted up it gave me sd card error again but when i formatted from there it formatted sd card, now i booted into recovery again and sd card is working perfectly and i once again flashed the other cm build and all is working correctly. I guess the problem was that cm couldn't format my sd card which is weird because i had tried and succeeded to format it to fat32 through pc.
Also, do you have an eta for when you'll have working camera on your cm build? Thanks for the help

Good to hear it is working again. As my cm9 rom is only a port and onejay09 is working on a cm9 compiled from source the port will not get any update. It was only mean to be a sneak peak until someone compiled cm9
