plz guys need help my sd card does wierd - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay its realy anoying....
I have to much apps on my internal memory so i moved some to sd card. And after 10apps my touchpad says sd card removed insert a new one. Wtf...... --" and all my sd apps wont work any more did a reset backup all 3times and every time when i try coping some apps tonsd itbstar again. And now sd works but have like 50% of sd card games gone or force close.
Anyone had same problem??? Or is there a fix?
Yeah remove apps and blablabla but i have a lot of games who i like and apps are little and also he says that im runing low on memory sometimes andii have -200mb over.
Its realy ****...

I noticed this too. There seems to be a limit to how many apps you can have installed until the SD card starts acting wierd. My solution was to uninstall a bunch of apps I do not use. I haven't seen the error since.

yeah

virus on wing!?!?

hey guys/ girls i have a serious problem.. i think i have a virus on my wing or something... it was working fine for the 1st four days i had it then i just happend to check storage card memory and all my music, pics, videos, etc are gone plus i have these weird lookin empty folders in my storage card that i didnt put there that have squares, number signs and dollar signs for the name... its about 10 of them and i cant delete them... plus to top it off.. its murdering my memory....i have a 2 gig card i checked it n it said i only have like 16 mb left n it seems like every couple of hours i lose a mb in program memory (side bar: i hard reset and soft reset my wing a few days ago 2 get rid of the tmo bull so i started with like 30mb storage and 15mb program plus a 2 gig card) ... so im thinkin wtf?! cuz all i have installed on there is the chi- tai battery status plugin which has been working fine, spb back up, spb mobile shell, and google maps and they are all installed on the storage card, and i know this takes no where near 2 gigs and yes i already soft reset and even tried a hard reset but no luck it was all working fine until last night.. so i am asking for:
1) any idea what is going on with my baby?!? lol
2) any ideas/ apps to fix this cuz im freakin out right now
3) any ways i can avoid this from happening again
It sounds to me like your storage card is getting corrupt... which is not uncommon due to some bug. Look at some of the posts for "corrupt storage card"
here's one of them

you might have to repurches a new one
when i changed roms, i copied all the non-corrupt folders to the computer, then formatted the card. everything has been fine since then =)

Before you go and toss your SD, try this formatter program from Panasonic. It fixed my card time after time.
http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/sd/download/sd_formatter.html
BTW, dont use FAT32 for the format. Use plain FAT which is actually FAT16.

1) Nope. and thats not from lack of research or trials
2) I have nothad a problem for a week since I loaded the Touch_IT ROM. The ROM is sweet.
3) Again, Nope. As long as I ran the Tmobile ROM, I kept getting the SD corruption.
Good luck and if you still cannot fix your problem, try the Touch_IT ROM with a 6mb pagepool . It's fast and increses memory by a bunch.
your wing is not resonding
have you tried a clear storage under setting and then system this sends the device intototal reset and all factory settingd...
I might be pushing my luck.... but ever since I stopped having my tmobile wing write mail attachments, camera pics, and Iexplorer temp files to the SD card I have not had a corrupt sd.
Could be luck, but it's been weeks now. Whereas before my SD would end up corrupt several times a week.
Would prefer a cab patch for this or something to that effect.
All I did to mine to fix it was, back it up, reformat it with the builtin winxp formating program and pop it back in. Hasn't happened since then.

HD Unusable Slooooooow

Has anyone experienced the following:
I have tried several different ROMS. After I flash the ROM things go really well. All is working, running fast and then after 24 to 36 hours my device just gets so bogged down that it takes a long time to do anything. Any program I launch will easily take at least 30 seconds to launch if it launches at all. If i soft reset it does nothing for the problem. I have changed batteries to see if that helped (of course it didnt nor did I expect it too). All that fixes it is another hard reset.
Does this sound like an issue i need to send the phone into HTC for? Possible hardware issue? Could a bad SD Card cause something like that? HARD SPL? Anyone else been through this? thanks in advance guys/gals

Have you used cooked and shipped roms too?
If you have not tried, try to flash a shipped rom and see how goes. If it will go well then try to reflash with your preferred cooked one.
If you have already tried a shipped one, I don't know, it's a little strange. If you thik to have a bad SD card, try to use the pda without it. But I don't think it can cause all the things you have written.
I had a similler issue and a clear storage solved it.
after flashing your HD or any other pocket pc with cocked or original ROM, it always recommend it to do a cealr storage from settings-->systems--> clear storage.
do a clear storage and i am sure your issue will dissapear.
good luck

What do you mean with "major problems"?
What you described is really weird.
I flash too all the time, but the HD never gets slow.
Is clear storage for your SD card then?

when i tried to copy stuff from my card onto my pc to back up the data it kep freezing up on my pc and became unreadable. i would have to take the card out and start again. Eventually i just formatted it and now it works great. No clear storage doesnt appear to be for the storage card but I tried it. I had so much stuff on my SD card that im sure my HD was trying to run programs and since my SD card was unreadable it was killing the device.
I had a similar problem, and I was forced to format my SD card too. Luckily I was able to save 95% of contents before to lose everything .I experienced some folders became unreadable (unaccessible), and card was full of "strange" folders with unreadable characthers and improbable sizes (I thought I had some terabyte ).
I think stock microsd isn't the best... Simply I must remember to backup it more often
Exactly like mallman, formatting solved the problem

Well the only difference is that my problem came back this morning which was after formatting yesterday. I have determined my card is bad so I swapped it out for a new card and we will see how that goes. If my device is having the problem and i just take the card out my device runs like a champ, pop it back in and slooooow I agree, I will get my card on a regular backup schedule very soon. Well, once my ned 16gb gets here. This 8 gig is just too small lol
I ran into a problem like yours when using WAD 2 on my Polaris with particular cooked ROMS that seemed to have a SD card problem....see post on Lakeridge here where someone pointed out to me where the problem was coming from http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=14568&highlight=WAD+storage , the only way I fixed the problem was flashing to a different ROM.

checking it out now. I can tel lyou that this has to be the porblem because of course my 8gb card wasnt the solution because my device is dog slow AGAIN lol
edit: ok i will try a new rom and see. I have had this problem with Dutty's and Dav, if it happens to a third rom I will try th estock ROM and if it happens there I am spellbounded
HD is not slow. If yours takes 30 seconds to respond, something is wrong. I would take a look at the SD card. I used to have this problem in my Athena, causing constant freezes and soft reset. When I did a sktools benchmarking, it was clear that the unit was reading and writing to the card extremely slowly. I reformatted the card with incorrect parameter causing that problem. After reformatting with the formating parameter, my Athena resume the nomal fast response.

Check out Johnpatcher's barebone ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=472972. I find it runs excellent but you'll need to archive CABs of your favorite programs. The performance I think is great, commented about that in the thread too (WAD 2 on the ROM), I have like 70% - 65% free memory all day.
ok testing touch of HD with WAD2 to see if I can replicate teh problem. (fingers crossed)

I had it running on Laurentis's ROM too without a problem. Shame he seems to have left. But i do really recomend the barebones ROM, at first boot it only used 10% mem.
Anyway, hope it works for you and keep those theme's coming

well i never had a problem with the shipped rom and WAD2. I can confirm that touch of HD rom also shows the same problem. I can try the barebones rom and see what happens then if it doesnt work i am going back to shipped rom because nothign beats WAD2 (in my humble opinion)
and ps. i have tried multiple SD cards so i confirmed that isnt the problem

Maybe you might want to PM those cookers to let them know about the bug, it was prevalent on many Polaris ROMS too for some time. Good luck, the barebones ROM hasn't had any problems so far, its fast and very responsive but lacks the bells and whistles of the bigger ROMS.
Now that you are speaking of, I can confirm I was using WAD2 (the trial, I don't think is important...) when I had the problem.
I'm currently NOT using at the moment because too many problems still with TF3D and no more problem with microSD card.
At this point I think I'll wait a little before to try again
I too would like to use WAD!
just wanted to report back so far so good with the stock ROM. Ive rebooted and done all kinds of things that typically kill it with the cooked ROMs.
strange story!!
maybe you make too many themes??

lol, im guilty!!!
Well just for everyone's knowledge, still no problems with stock ROM so I am willing to say problem solved. I cant run a cooked ROM and expect to use WAD2 I will start PM'ing all the cooks I see tomorrow and letting them know this and maybe they know of a fix. Thanks for all the help everyone

Internal Storage Limit

Trying very hard to keep the Internal Storage on my Eris @ 50% . Wonder how low I can really go before I run into issues ???? Too bad I'm not rooted otherwise I would move/install some of my apps to my 16GB MSD card.

Just try to make sure you're only hanging on to apps you actually use versus something that was cool for like 10 minutes and then forgotten. I would also reccomend wiping dalvik cache every now and then. Also there's a cool little app called app monster that allows you to store apps on your sd card. you can't run them but if its something you dont want to get rid of then you can have a back up.
why does it matter if your internal storage is at 50%?
Maybe a bit of obsessive complusive (not saying this to be derogatory) mixed with hoping to keep his phone as fast as possible?
Don't know about the compulsive part, but yeah I am looking to keep my phone "mean and lean". I gather I can load up my phone with tons of Apps and not be concerned about how little storage space I wind up with. By the way I am a Windows person , and learned the hard way . Tis not the case with Android?
Yea, the system paths are set up a little different in that respect. What's holding you back from rooting? If you're leaked, I understand, and sympathize. If it's warranty issues, then you can always recover and go back to stock. If you aren't sure how to do it, well there are plenty of how-to's and helpful people here. Apps 2 SD is pretty nice, and that's just the beginning...muahaha.
I was leaked the day it came out in March ..just my luck . Just wondered about space. Saw/heard on another forum where someone ran out of space and ran into issues. To me this is the best forum to get positive answers

Moving to Sd Issue?

My issue is I am running out of space and decided to move all my apps to the sd card using TB. Okay once that was done all of the app icons that have been placed on the main screens dissapear after a boot up. Any one know why this is happening?
I went ahead and placed them all back to the main memory and know they stay where I put them. Some one please advise. Thank you
Disappearing Icons
I had the same problem ,and I read somewhere that they have to be on the internal memory in order to function.
They reappeared as I moved them back.
Perhaps there is already an app that solve this problem ?
Let me know if you find something.

Same thing happens to me. I would love a fix.
This is ridiculous! I have a 32gb card on this thing and I can't put any of my apps on it? Come on, really? Wow! I just dont see why we can't do this and be able to place them where we want and have them stay there.

[Q] sd card problem

Hi can anyone anyone help I brought sd card 32gb but it keepa getting corupt files from data and I recorded a video for 30 minutes and it went corupted ive formatted long and quick still ends up the same does anybody have any idea why this would happen ?
I had similar issue with 2 SD cards both getting corrupted.... Are you using folder mount?
Or any other script that links SD card at boot like app2sd etc, if so you might find that these are the probs, as the script could be to aggressive.
I think folder mount script screwed my cards.

Its been a month since I've purchased the SP, and i seem to have a problem with the system force closing apps like real racing or minion rush for the matter. Some times the game exits without any warning whatsoever and also during gameplay of Real Racing, the app frequently goes to the pause screen despite me not touching the screen at all for the matter. Is this a hardware issue with the phone or is it that the game is too heavy for the system ?
