[SOLVED]Damaged SD Card

I was running Cyanogenmod 7.1 stable and all of a sudden in the notification bar it says that my SD card is damaged. I put the stock SD card (Sandisk) in an old nokia and was able to format it on windows 7.
However this has not solved the problem and I can't seem to access any SD card on my phone. Tried a Samsung 8GB and a 1GB Nokia one.
If you try to format it says that SD is currently being checked. I would try a different ROM however 4ext can't access any backups/zip files.
confused now
Edit: Should I try to S-ON, however without a SD card it may be difficult

Perhaps try a different rom just to make sure its not a software issue!! If not then there's a fault at hardware level!!

Yeah I have been playing around with it for the last 2 hours and have managed to get the Samsung one to be recognized so maybe it is a broken SanDisk card .

I put the bootloader back onto S-on and the problem is still there even though its not a custom rom. I think i mght try to get it repaired since everything i have tried has failed

Yes get it repaired by HTC since you unrooted anyways

Just to update If anyone looks back at this thread at a later date. I sent my phone to htc repair centre and they gave it back to me 11 days later with a replaced sd card reader. All seems to be working well so its all good.
Must have been a hardware fault.

You should try another brand, mine went wrong with Sandisk, now works fine with Samsung SD card.

the first one was a lexmark 8Gb , after this problem i tried a samsung 2 Gb and a sandisk 4 Gb but the problem always persists, it takes a while and then the device rebooted again and the same card problem appeared

Maybe a rom related bug... Try to flash another one or restock your Note.
If the problem persist, you are probably facing an hardware issue. (SD card socket for example)

Thx i'll try it

[Q] Lollipop SD card issue

Hey guys
I realise after upgrading to LP (rooted, BL locked), the SD card will not mount everytime I reboot the phone. If I go to "Storage" and click Mount SD Card, it will say mounting but nothing happens.
The phone knows the card is inside, but it just doesn't mount it. The temporary fix is to eject and reinsert the SD card and all works well.
I tried searching but can't find someone with the same bizarre situation. HELP! thanks!

1. remove sd-card reboot phone and insert it. then reboot to check if it s OK or not.
2. another solution is to format sd-card (thr might be issue with sd-card)
3. Repair xperia firmware by PC Companion (if thr s problem with xperia system)

Hey! I've got the exact same issue. My Z3C is rooted, and I'm running Lollipop 5.0.2. If I reboot my phone, it acts just as if there was no SD-card inserted. And just like you, I cannot manually "mount" it, I need to take it out and then reinsert it again.
And just like you, I have searched the web far and wide for a solution but nothing has helped.

Number 1 doesn't work.
Number 2 doesn't work.
as for number 3, I need to ask a question about this one: if I would use PC Companion to "repair" the firmware, as you suggest; would this really work when the phone is rooted?
I hope there's someone out there who might have an idea about a solution for this..

yup but you will lose ur root access by installing fresh firmware by Repairing option in PCC

Yeah Ok, thanks. So that's really not an option then, because I would really like to keep root.
Now, a question for OP:
What firmware, exactly, are you using on your phone? I mean, which version and from where is the FTF-file? I'm wondering if the firmware version and / or region could be the cause of this problem... trying to narrow it down here...

Hello , did you manage to solve this issue please ??? I have the same problem after updting my Z1C to lollipop , I used Generric DE pre-root with dual recover , phone only mounts SD if taken out and reinserted but if reboot it does not show althought I can acces through root browser
Thanks

Exactly the same issue here. After a reboot, the SD card doesn't show up in Settings->Storage or in MTP sessions (nor - I think - in apps such as Album/Music).
But it is always fully accessible from the file system, e.g. using Root Browser/ES.
The card is correctly recognised when I remove and re-insert it.
It's not a great problem as I try not to reboot my phone very often. For reference I'm using a rooted Russian .726. FW.

Funny how rooted phones are facing this

The main problem to me is that i can not use recovery , i changed to italian pre rooted and samevissue as with german

I suggest downgrading to .93 Firmware ( KK ) then flashing Global .28 ( Lollipop ) firmware using Flashtool.
But it's highly unlikely it would be a software problem as most users don't experience this but are also rooted with Locked bootloaders. Maybe its the SD Card?

I flashed a pre-rooted Lollipop made with PRF Creator via Recovery coming from FW .93 ( kk ) and no problem on my end It must be a software issue on some Kitkat releases

Both are the same class? It may look like a stupid question... but I had another problem and the issue was the brand. Maybe the class could be a problem?

Samsung micro SDHC evo 32 gb class 10 and SanDisk Ultra micro SDHC 32gb class 10 , the only issue is they do not ppear as mounted nor you can see them on pc unless you take them out and insert again , but both play the music and i can see the pictures on them but as they dissapear when you reboot the phone I can not use recovery , I can even with root browser I can see files on them

Oops forgot to update this thread.
Anyways I gave up looking for solutions until the phone refused to sleep AT ALL. I went ahead and reflashed KitKat and went through the whole procedure again.
The problem magically disappeared and has been fine ever since. Still rooted and lollipop.:good:

Exact same probleme here with my rooted z3 compact .726 and 64GB microSD card.
I replaced by new card, reformat many times, still same situation.
Card is always visible in totalcommander but not in the system.
It happen yesterday when i started the camera app for taking a picture. It worked for many weeks before without problem. Strange! [emoji43]

[Q] Xperia V internal storage

So i have the Sony Xperia V (LT25i) and tried to find my way to CM and rooting and all this cool stuff apple users can't get..
I'm also new in this forum but i searched my problem and didn't find anything, if anyone knows more just send the link to the thread and thats it.
I rooted, got bootloader unlocked and tried to flash cm, bricked my phone, somehow got access to the flashtool again and flashed a stock rom, made a factory reset and i think thats all i messed around..
But the problem is now that some apps can't access the internal storage properly for example:
-can't download or upload media in whatsapp
-can't put homescreen via album app (external sd card not found)
i think that's it for now
I hope someone can help

urgent help needed please

i used cwm to wipe my phone but i did not flash it with rom instead i rebooted the phone & now it's stock on the Sony logo. please help this is not even my phone
i did try to use flashtool to flash stock tft but unknown sources & debugging must be enabled but the phone is stuck on the Sony logo so i can't even enable these settings. please if you can help then do,thanks very much
the phone's boot loader is locked by O2 & i had lollipop for LBL installed but it was getting very laggy so i tried to install another rom when i then messed up everything !!

1.Flashtool needs USB Debugging for Rooting ur Device, not Flashing
So don't worry about it, go for flashing
2.In Case u Wipe Entire Phone I.e.System, Data, Cache then the Phone won't skip the Boot Logo
According to me, the Recovery should b Accessible, So flash any ROM present in the Storage (if its urgent for u to have the phone working)
OR
Use Flashtool, it will help you recovering ur Phone
Go for the Flash tool method, read the Procedure Carefully
Good Luck

i managed to do it ,windows 10 64bit did not work so i booted to 2nd partition with win 7 32bit this also gave me lots of trouble for 2 hours but closing the flashtool app & disconnecting the phone few times & just as i was about to give up it's started to flash stock jellybean 4.1.2 & now the phone is working & currently the sony Companion app is updating it i think to 4.3 jelly bean. i will not mess no more with this phone,lollipop for LBL is a no go & because O2 locked the bootloader i will just keep it the way it is & just customise it with smart launcher & lock screen. thanks very much for your comment as it would have made me not give up & try again tomorrow. i appreciate it

I assume that you have tried the RR (5.0.2) LBL Bug-Fixed by Skulltus, if not then give it a try since LBL Users are finding it somewhat stable...
Reasons why Phone wasn't getting detected can be:-
>Improper Downloading of File - Make sure you don't Pause and Resume the Downloads too many times, so that it becomes corrupt
>Wire-- Use a Sony USB Cable only or a Good one ( i use Samsung's Cable for the Timebeing) -- Improper wires can be a reason why the Phone can't get detected by The PC...
>Try Another USB Port to Connect the Phone if it doesn't get detected by one...
These things happened with me Many times, Just Sharing it
Happy Flashing :good:

i have installed skultus bugfree 5.0.2 last night & it kept throwing a constant error (system UI crashed) i wasn't able to use the phone because this error when i hit ok it will comeback instantly so i thought it's not compatible,maybe i got the error because installation says ((1. Make you sure your device is LBL with .207 stock kernel, )) but my stock kernel is not 207 the firmware version ends with 205 , i have tried the sony companion to update but it said latest firmware is already installed. what do you think about this ?

i know about rooting & flashing roms in zip format via recovery but yes i'm new to installing roms & kernels via the flashtool & not a big fan of it either.

Hey, I'm in pretty much the same situation here, except I am having a few problems which are keeping me from going back to the stock firmware.
1) The phone keeps restarting when it's in flashmode - meaning it's sitting there for 30 seconds or so with flashmode and the green light, and then disconnects and turns back on into flashmode. This is keeping me from being able to flash anything because the device disconnects through the process.
(Yes, I did try reinstalling the programs, updating drivers, restarting computer, using a different usb port/cable etc)
2) I did manage to make it stay connected somehow last night BUT flashtool would give me errors involving .sin's of some kind. I could get past all this by flashing the stock firmware using "repair my phone/tablet" in Sony PC Companion, which I have done twice before so I can confirm it works - but for some bizarre reason the software started saying that there is no firmware available for my device!
Please help!

2->If you have already flashed A Firmware via Flashtool and u want to perform another,
then you have to RESTART it (the App) Otherwise it will show
Unable to Flash "System.sin" as you said
1-->I guess Flash Mode has A Time limit to get connected with the PC, if not then definitely its the wire Problem...Wires should be in good condition

I didn't try the LBL ROM since I Unlocked the Bootloader but still,
In All ROMs when I install an app from the SD Card, they get vanished on rebooting.... It reads the SD Card and the App Appears
I guess there's a "Move to Phone" Option in it, try doing that for those apps installed in SD Card
There should be an Option of-
"Preferred Install Location" either in
--Settings->Apps(Select the Menu)>Preferred Install Location
OR
--Settings->Storage->Preferred Install Location
Default Option can be "Let the System Decide"
Change it to Internal Storage
