GenYBoot Android SD card problem - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

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

the card def has to be FAT32. be sure you have it named properly. DIAMIMG.nbh & that its in the root of the sd card. also you may want to try a 2gb or smaller card if perhaps you are trying this on a 8gb or 16gb card. GL
make sure to unlock the phones security and that the file is put in the root of the card and name correctly.

You may be confusing the OP, as the Diamond does not have an external card slot. 4 gb internal only. Is the phone Unlocked, as it sounds like it may not be??
Phone must be unlocked... ROM file must be placed on the ROOT of the internal storage... ROM image MUST be named "DIAMIMG", do not bother adding ".nbh" to the file name, or it will mess up the file.... the file extension is already an nbh and may not show that in the phone's file explorer.
If you're doing all of that, and the ROM is a Diamond specific ROM and not a Touch Pro ROM, it should be fine.

touchXplorer lets you into the device, not sd due to secure format.
THIS is the closest thing i have found to access your SD card. I have tried and it works but its not the best as it relies on zune. so i can add office files, pics and music but thats it. anything else i add to the card does not show up from within the phone.
I have 2 Gb sd card, but in Win7 I can't see it, when I used touchXplorer.
Way?

Hi Cocktail, I'm a Mac user, but I do have s0me experience with file recovery. Your SD Card will be formatted in the Fat 32 File format. Try this utility on your laptop to scan your SD card. Free App
Or try any other file recovery program that you might have access to.
I hope this helps. Anil

Hi Cocktail, if you reformat your SD card whilst in your phone. This will wipe the directory and any dodgy formatting but not any of your files. Then you can scan the SD card for files on your laptop. Recovery software can be told to search the entire logical structure of a volume, and ignore any formatting to find files. This normally takes a little or a long time, depending on the size of the volume.
I've done this on a 1 Terrabyte RAID 5 volume, that took a very long time (days), yours should be a lot quicker. But still that is what I would do.
DISCLAIMER: I am only suggesting a course of action. If your photos are life or death important, then find a company that will do file recovery for you for a price. Google will help you here.
If you follow my suggestion. Then having half decent Windows file recovery software would be very very helpful.
I hope this helps. Anil
When you put your SD card in your laptop do you not see it when you go to "My Computer"? On the SD card adapter it has a little lock on the side which you can flick up and down to lock it, maybe it's locked? (Happened to me before) Or try putting the SD card in a different phone and see what happens.

Strange Sd card problem

Whenever i Install an gingerbread or cm7 Rom 2.3.7 on my x8,
after it the sd card in the phone is protected against writing, only reading.
The phone dont see the SD card anymore , and on my pc it see the card in my cardreader but i cant copy and paste things from it.
When i directly connect the phone with the sd card in it to my pc via usb, the pc dont see the sd card also.
Then when i flash back to the original Rom, the SD card is back normal like writing and reading and my phone sees the card.
Also i can Copy and paste like normal.
When i flash to froyo pro 24 (2.2.9 android) the phone also see the card like normal.
Looks to me something in 2.3 android versions mess with my SD card and set it on read only...
Does someone know what this could be?
Thnx in advance,
Henk
what sd card do you have? did you try format it?
It is the standard 4gb card that was in the box from the x8.
I install the roms via this sdcard.
I also formatted it but that did not solve the problem.
there is no ''lock''on the card, and after i flash it back to the original stock rom with flashtool it shows the card with no write or read protection.
In android 1.6 ,2.1 and 2.2 till version 2.2.9 i dont have the sd card issues.
I checked mini cm shakira,
herodroid
gx stock
prime hd and 2 other roms based on android 2.3.
Some i reinstalled and full wiped after the installation but that made no difference.
(offcourse i always full wipe/factory before installing the Roms )
In''storage settings it always say:
-total space
unavailable
-Available space
unavailable
-mount Sd card
Insert a sd card for mounting
-erase Sd card
erases all data on the phone Sd card such as music and photos.
(This is the only option that is highlighted and usable, and it erases only files when i tested it, it dont format the card)
I also tried to unlock the read only protection to place the mini sd card in the cardreader but i can't find an option to unlock that protection.
It only shows the files on the card but i cant copy and paste something.
(Both in windows7 and windows xp)
Some of them are on Stock kernel and the mini cm7 on an naa kernel.
(problem with the naa kernel was that i could not update the fix after flashing the rom in xrecovery,
since right after the flash from my sd card to mm7 my sdcard was on read only and write protected........had to reinstall the stock version by flashtool again and install xrecovery again and busybox,rooting, to start after with the flashing of custom roms again.
All of them did something with the sd card that it is read only when i place it in my sd card reader on pc ,and its not visible on the phone.
With some roms i can access the sd card via cwm or xrecovery to flash an rom zip but sometimes it says it cant mount''e'',
which is my sd card.
After i flashed my phone back to stock rom via flashtool, the sd card is visible again on the phone and not read or write protected.
Also on froyo pro 24(android 2.2) i dont have this sd card problem.
Could it be that there is some kind of driver for my sd card so that my phone reconize the sd card?
I really don't know what this issue could be and im stucked on 2.2 now.
you're using 2nd ext partition?
if yes, trying to solve it and boot via cwm and format it using partition sdcard (advance > partition sdcard) you need to backup your data first
if not using 2nd ext partition, try format using this http://hard-disk-low-level-format-tool.software.informer.com/ but i'm not test it yet
maybe u must check and repair your sdcard
1. try with another sdcard
2. make sure if your sdcard format is FAT
or
3. backup your sdcard data to your pc, then format it!
it must be work
Your idea doesnt work

Maybe the ROM doesnt have the necessary drivers. Any idea on how to install them?
Go to following directory via a root explorer app:
Root/system /bin
Find this file:
Fsck_msdos
Delete & Replace with froyopro's disk checker.(same file in froyopro rom)
Yes,this is the file which scan & fix ur sdcard For errors in startup.
This must help u.

[Q] [SOLVED] Flashing rom from Internal SD

Hi guys, I have the following issue. I installed a SD card but when plug-in it to my computer only the internal SD would show ( I was expecting both ), then I went to Storage on the phone and it was showing there, so I chose format in case that cuold help but now it's gone from there too
Anyway, since I can't seem to fix that for now, can I copy a rom into the internal SD and flash it? I don't know if CWM will be able to search there or if a certain wipe will format my internal SD.
Help would'be much appreciated.
recent versions of CWM have an option in the zip-flashing menu for flashing from internal storage.
I created a folder named CM in th internal sd and flash everything from there. Just remember the folder and you can moce item with root broswer or directly download there. In my case /mnt/sdcard/cm
