GenYBoot Android SD card problem

Hi,
Had been running throught the internet but can't find an answer. I have GenYBoot installed and Android 2.2.1 running from Internal storage of my HTC Touch Diamond. I have a problem with SD-card in Android which ... does not exist. If I want to save something it says that there is no SD-card - please insert the card. Device desen't see any additional storage than own memory (<200MB). There is no need to say it's anoying as it doesn't allow me even to download ringtones....
Could you advise please?
Thanks,
Andrew.

Solution
Just a simple trick
I don know what rom ur using, but i had da same prob
Jus delete every single file in the 4gb storage first, then put ur android files fresh ther and start the haret file from file explorer. This should do da trick, it did it for me.

Alright first download this HP FORMAT TOOL
http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,64963-order,4/description.html
second, copy all the contents from your INTERNAL SD only card onto your desktop
third, run the tool and choose between quick format [works for me all the time] or full format. Once done re-copy all your files back on the INTERNAL

HELP !!!

I think I damaged my Kingston SD while I was trying to format it. Now when I put it into place it keeps saying "SD card safe to remove
You can safely remove your SD card". ;( My Galaxy is running MIUI 4.3 Help me, please! What should I do ?
When I inserted my SD with to my laptop none of the files were deleted nor the card was formated.I used Panasonic SD program to format but there is the same notification showing only when I insert the card in the phone.

Insert the card, ignore any messages and reboot the phone.
Once the phone comes back up, go to Settings > Storage and see if you can Mount the external SD card.
That worked for me when I got similar messages after swapping cards.

That didn`t work out. I get the same notification.Other ideas ?
I just made hard reset ... still the same problem
btw I noticed something weird in PC/Sync Setting / Default connection type there are two options *Charge only or *Mount SD card??!!! what does this means

What partition is your sdcard after you format it? It still fat32?
Hmm... if it still maybe that is MIUI bug

hm yes it is Fat32 but other strange thing I just saw from the card reader - there is a LOST.DIR folder created with nothing inside ...what does it mean ?

The LOST.DIR directory is normal, it is where corrupted files get dumped. If the Directory is empty that is just fine.
Have you tried inserting a different MicroSD card?

I`m going to try one later today .
====
mmm No that doesn`t work either.
I`m suppose downgrade to original firmware should do the trick === I hope so

JOB DONE pheu downgraded to 2.2.1 froyo the job went smoothly .I assume it is not a hardware fault just the MIUI is having this kind of a bug .
Thanks for you all that tried to help

Then i tried going into gallery. Same thing !!! I need help with this cuz i don't want to know that i wasted all that money on something that doesn't work T-T
P.S. : Running GDX V21, Alfs kernel V04. I've tried formatting it and THEN pasting the files from my old card. Still the same
P.S.P.S : By "my" X8, I mean my friends one which, in a few days or weeks will be mine

mayb u got a corrupt sd card?

open file explorer in the phone and look if there is something on the card. if you see all your folders and files, try to reboot your phone or install this from the maket.
if you don't see the files on your sd card, try to format the card from the settings in phone, not with pc
hope this will help you

crap...my sd card was also damaged ..it says sd card is damaged please format it...my heart broke ..4gb worth of pics , songs , videos GONE

there might be 2 solutions that I know:
1) Sdcard or the files may be corrupted. - Try to format the sdcard and put just one picture(a picture that you can view without any problems on pc) and see if you can view it.
2)nomedia - make sure there isn't any ".nomedia" file in the root of sd card or check in the folders where your music is store.
HOPE THAT HELPS

You can try formatting your SD card from your computer, maybe it helps.

Use the pc. There 2 types of format. FAT AND ntfs. Have you tried both? Also try quick and the regular one.

I've full wiped and reflashed gdx v21...it works thnx guys for all your help !

get a card reader and try it with your computer if those files are really important... you could also try one of the many data recovery tools.. just google it..

Guts, i find this problem happens when i flash the update vold+chargemon.zip if i don't it's ok....is there any workaroun ? I cant connect Mass Storage if i don't flash it

When my phone says my SD IS DAMAGED, o just reboot and everytihibg is fine

Ok...after ALOT of experimenting i finally pin pointed the prob....i used this app called Rescan Media Root...they say that every boot is slow because yr phone is scanning all the media files (Media Scan)...if you disable it, it'll speed up boot time ! But what happens in my case is it disabled the scanning, forever...so it never bothered to scan the sd card for my media files :S...after i reenabled it, it worked !

[Q] Transfer Data to SD Card option

In settings => storage, there is the Transfer Data to SD card option. However I have tried multiple times to use it and it always fails to transfer the data. I have tried restarting the phone and trying it immediately after and I have also removed and reinserted the microSD. The weird thing is that the option used to work back in November. Any ideas?
Taking photos and videos (including 4k) and saving them directly to the sd card works, and transfer of files via file manager also works so I don't know what the problem could be.
I am on latest stock without root and locked BL.
Thanks

The same name can not exist on the SD card or the procedure fails. For example, if there is DSC0001.jpg on internal, but already there is DSC0001.jpg on the SD, then the transfer fails

Thanks for the suggestion. I have just removed all photos from my SD card and tried again but I still get the error. I even deleted the whole DCIM folder and it still didn't work.

Probably the SD card is not liked by the phone? I've tried this option for photos and videos and it worked for me. I have a Sandisk Class 10 UHS-I (45MB/s) 32 GB microSD.
Other than that, you can use a file manager or a computer to move files to SD if the transfer option refuses to work.

I've got the exact same card and capacity! The option used to work before with this card so I don't know what could be wrong now.

Try format the sd card on the phone. I had a similar issue when it would save video/picture to the sd but wouldn't allow me to view it "wrong url" or something. Again the sd worked fine on previous devices. Formatting it sorted the issue

frequently when i use my phone , some apps after some time stop working.after some research i found that only those apps were force closing with were moved to ext storage(mounted as int. in android 6.0). then i checked on es file explorer that my emulated storage unmounts automatically and only remounts after reboot.

i want to ask you which type of format you did?(full factory reset or formatted sd card as ext.?
and is there no other way?

Same problem bro. Format will solve the issue for some time but after some days of use this problem will reoccur.
