[q]SDcarderrors - HTC Incredible S

sometime ago my sdcard kept being unexspectly removed, a friend of mine had a theory that it might be a software problem.
So he tried to install cyanogenmode on it coming from whatever system I had before.
Suddenly the SDcard worked, and I could get the new OS on.
now on cyanogenmode it can't decide whether it wants to work or not, it seems to stop working whenever i'm doing something with video.
The SDcard always comes to work again when my phone completely runs out of power, but then after sometime it stops.
my friends theory is now that the sdcard might be bricked, how do I unbrick?
i tried formatting the sdcard and this is the rom that i'm using

Your sdcard is not bricked. Just take off the back cover, take the sd card out. Blow gently on sd card and slot and then put sd card back in. Normally the problem goes away.

It doens't, also that's like one of the first things i tried, way before I even thought about getting a new OS.

SD Card Getting corrupted ALOT ? (ADP 1.6)

Hi,
So I have been facing this problem for the past 2 month, my SD Card has been getting corrupted alot lately. ONLY EXT partition though, the FAT partition remains intact. I never faced this problem back when I was using JF 1.5 (Long back) This only started happening a while after I started using AOSP 1.6 (With Expansion). Later on I flashed ADP 1.6 , I thought it might be something to do with that ROM. But unfortunatly I was faced with the same result. It happened just 10 min. ago . My phone was working absoloutely fine, I had received a call and then 20 min. later I wanted to grab an app from the market and my phone just completely Froze........I knew it had ****ed up. It restarted Automatically and as usual all Apps are gone as a result of the corruption.
Sometimes, repairing the parition from the recovery console solves the issue, but thats only SOMETIMES. mostly I have to restore the backup from BART or NANDROID . (Which also never restores right away, but after wiping everything on the phone first !!!!!!!! :S)
Please help me out if you have ANY idea whats causing this!
Thanks.
i suggest backing up what you can.. then.. try a fresh start by formation the sdcard and repartationing and before install all your apps back.. try a few out and see if get the same thing.. if then it may be time for a new sdcard
Thanks for the suggestion mate....but I have formatted the card all the way back to RAW mode and repartitioned it again and did a fresh install of everything.........same result. Its not app related. If it was , it would have happened the same time I run that specific application, but it just happens randomly. A new SD Card is the only other possible reason. I will buy one and try :S
Thanks anyway for your help.

SD card slot not working whatsoever, HELP!!!

so as my sig says, i have a rooted mt3g 32b, and up to yesterday it was workign perfectly. i was wiping the happyrom .95b to install a themed superE rom. i had phone plugged into usb, had full battery, looked as if it flashed fine.. nothing hung up, none of the normal warning signs. I tried to reboot, and suddenly, it started a SINGLE BOOTLOOP and then booted into the rom. when it loded up, i found the SD card slot wouldnt recognize, and the sim card wasnt recognized either. Spent about an hour trying to do any unix commands enatefox could think of to fix it. ended up having to use part of /data as a symbolically linked "sd card" after i rebooted, was able to use the phone as in the sim card slot worked again, although the SD slot was no more... has anyone had this happen or can anyone think of a fix? if so, gtalk me or email me or pm me.. whatever
[email protected]
thanks,
Drew
p.s.
Card is not fried, im using it in my new mt3gs and shes working perfectly
I hate to say it but it sounds like a hardware failure to me... With any software bug... a complete wipe followed by stable rom fixes everything.
Good luck.
dammit>.< i need a fix of some sort.. gotta be a fix somewhere
it seems its only a half ass problem... i downloaded the sapphimg.nbh to the sd card through my mt slide, transferred cards to the mytouch, went into hboot, it loaded up the image, and unrooted me fine... so the issue seems almost like firmware? i could be wrong, but i think the firmware is half assing the sd card slot

No... really? You thought the card might be fried?
Lets see... you install a new haxored system image, and stuff doesn't work. What conclusion can you come up with from this? That whatever you did broke the phone! You either screwed up the install, or the system image you chose to install is a piece of garbage that doesn't work!

External SD not recognised on galaxy s?

Hey all, my 16gb sandisk sd card isn't being recognised anymore, anyone know why?
It says it read the SD card, and it got to 100% complete, yet my apps dont load to the menu list anymore :/
Help please
Also, when I try and boot up either Launcher7 or Twlauncher the phone restarts on me..
It's not rooted, its not a custom rom, just froyo 2.2.1 :/
does windows recognise it ?
if so, move all files to PC, put SD card back in phone and try to format, if you cant format it under windows and try again
ok i connected it to my pc, copied everything over, then i formatted the card (fat32) and yet it still doesnt want to read it.
ive tried all i can do and yet nothing works. my card is 100% authentic so i know that isnt the problem, yet nothing else is fixing it
thats strange. if you was on a custom rom / kernel there are things we could do to get it working.... but your not lol.
under settings, have you tried to unmount / mount ??
does anything pop up in the notification bar when you insert / remove external sd ?
really? what custom roms? i moved from 2.2 to darkys 9.5 within a week, but then went to 2.2.1 for warranty reasons.
ive tried unmounting and remounting, just like inserting it, restarting the phone etc., all it says is media scan running, gets to 100%, media scan complete.
it says i have 8.56gb of 14.2gb free which is normal, and all the files come up on the computer, but in my menu they arent there, just a bunch of empty spaces.
no matter how long i leave it running nothing gets recognised
that is weird
have you tried a factory reset, i dont know any other options.
you havent downloaded any apps that could of caused this recently have you ?
no i haven't tried a factory reset yet just cause i don't want to lose all my apps. i had 10 pages of apps and id rather not want to reinstall 8 of the missing pages, but if i cant fix it ill go into download mode soon and perform a factory reset, if that doesn't work i'm gonna exchange the card for a new one.
i'm 100% certain that no apps caused this. i haven't installed anything new for about a week. just turned the phone off then back on and now its broken.
thanks for your help, ill let you know how i go
Yea keep me informed. Have u got any backup apps that you could try and see if they backup the "missing " apps
Sent from Miui powered SGS
i think my phone is the problem. i've just tried using a new sd card and that one is also not being read
ill try a factory reset later, and then if that fails ill try new firmware to see how that goes.
Just finished flashing froyo 2.2, then 2.2.1 and neither worked.
how do i go abouts fixing this with a custom rom?
i think the problem lies with the hardware not the software.
like you said earlier you tried another sd card and that didnt work either.
the options in a custom rom are just manually mounting / unmounting and fixing permissions in recovery, but i dont think this will help.
your on stock ROM now so i would just go to your nearest SSC and tell them to fix it under warranty
thanks for helping me man
ill be taking it in soon as a repair, however, my friend said it couldve happened cause my battery went to 0% and the phone just shut of and broke something, is that true? i'm not sure cause I can still access the card by pc.

[Q] N1 wont read sd card some one please help

Hello everyone, i just got the nexus one just to mess around with, its already rooted but no rom installed. My problem is that when I put my SD card in the phone and boot up the phone I get the message "SD card blank or has unsupported file system". I know theres threads on the topic but they seem not to work, I've also reformatted thesd card and nothing. Its a 32gb
Not sure of the brand, ill look and post it.
Try using a program like sdformatter and did you format to FAT32?
Try a different sd card to see if maybe it's the card itself that's bad
Yeah I tried sdformatter, yeah I tried formatting to Fat32, no the SD isn't bad,the computer recognizes it. Idk what's wrong
with sdformatter did you use full erase and size adjustment ON
i am not sure but a card may be able to be recognized and still can't be formatted or may be bad--again, not sure
Yeah I tried full erase but not with size adjustment on though, ill give it a try though. I know the SD card isnt bad because after trying to have the nexus read it, and I get the blank SD card error, I plug it into my computer and it will automatically ask me if I want to format the SD card because its corrupt, after I select yes the computer reads it just fine. I think it just might be the phone itself, I've tried countless solutions people have posted in other threads, and the phone is what, about 2 years old, it just might be slowly dying
understand--good luck

Does N1 support 32 gb cards?
The N1 does support 32gb SD cards, I've gotten lucky and it read it, but after booting the phone up again I got the same message in the status bar, I think the problem might be with the rom on phone I don't know what rom its running but it looks like its a completely stock rom, or it could be the way the way the person rooted the phone, and I don't have a clue on how to unroot the phone. Yes I know its rooted I'm able to get superuser permissions.
you didn't say, unless i missed it, did you try another card
if so, and it is rooted can you tell what recovery is on phone clockwork or amonra
Sorry about that, yeah I tried and still am trying a 4gb SD card, I didn't root the phone, but when I got the memory card to work I flashed clockworkmod, I was going to reboot into recovey but when I pressed powered button I could only power off the phone, so I did and was going to boot into recovery through hboot, but when I selected recovery it just showed the picture of the android with the black background, so I rebooted the phone and kept on getting the error message, idk what I did to get the phone to read the SD card, I guess just luck.
Do you have the android sdk installed on pc do fastboot flash amonra 2.2.1 or maybe clockwork has that option. If it it the first time you may need to delete a couple files to have amonra stick. Clockwork 3+ did have some issues for some. Or you can check wiki and flash the correct passimg and go back to stock and start over. If you have means back up what you can. Not sure of your problem--sorry
Well it looks like the N1 is done, it won't even boot any more, looks like I'll be phone less for a while...the problem wasn't because it was rooted, I got it unrooted back on 2.2.1 then it updated to 2.3.? And it still had the sd card problem, I guess it was a sign that the phone was dying...r.i.p. n1 lol
Thank you ruggmankc for trying to help save my n1
sorry to hear that--
bright side is great phones are coming out this year and N1's can be bought at good prices if interested

Fix: mmc_failed (internal memory) YES...THERE'S A FIX. KEEP YOUR PHONE

I have seem to have found the issue and solution to this problem that many of us have been experiencing. If you have encountered issues like myself, there is a thread dedicated to the description of this problem; MAJOR LAG, RANDOM REBOOTS, the phone won't boot up and goes into a screen where you read:
----Mmc_failed failed boot---
After searching for about a month, it seems to be an internal SD issue. Many have reported to having these issues after they root, others upgrading to the non reversible DOK2 FIRMWARE. Others were stock with out root and had this issue as well.
**THE PARTITION OF THE INTERNAL SD CARD IS CORRUPTED**
Could be corrupted files, that stick to the phone EVEN AFTER ODIN FLASHING STOCK MANY TIMES.
(I Odin 5 times back to back to fix and the partition was still corrupted)
People thought "well, if Odin doesn't work, it's a hardware issue" I thought that myself, and it was not.
My friends, I have found something that has worked for me and would like to share with you guys. I hope this fixes your device like it did mine. I've been so close to throwing this Note 4 against the wall, running it over with my car, or smashing it with a hammer. I had no way to return my device as many have suggested to do because I left T-mobile a while back. Plus, rooting my phone voided my warranty. Yada, yada, yada, let's get into it.
*Since the internal partition to the SD card is messing up, we need to repair it.
**In order for this to work, you will need to be ROOTED.
*Download an app called "AParted SD Card Partition." Hope I don't violate any rules, but here is the link to it on Google Play.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sylkat.AParted
Once the app gains root access, you will be brought to the main screen. Click the tab that says tools. Once that screen pops up, you will see
Part 1 FS: fat32 . Size 31914 MB
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Please note that the size to Part 1 may be a different number. That is what mine read.
*You will now click Part 1
*After doing so, at the bottom where it says create, click it and replace it with REPAIR.
*Hit apply, and you're all set.
*Turn off phone, pull battery out for 10 seconds, as well as external SD card and Sim. (They hold small amounts of electric current which may prevent the phone to do a proper boot) I usually hold both volume buttons, power button, home button, and pull the s spen out for 10 seconds simultaneously, then put it all back together and boot up.
*******Also, I used the app to delete the partition, and creating it again to avoid problems from a faulty repair. So if you want to do that, click Part 1. Instead of repair, click delete. Once done, click Part 1 again, then click create. Hit the Fat32, and start it. Once it's created, you shouldn't have issues. In case you're worried, pictures and videos will not be erased.******
I HAVE NO AFFILIATION WITH THE DEVELOPER, BUT HE SAVED MY DEVICE WITH THIS APP. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO THANK HIM AND HIT THE LIKE BUTTON IF THIS WORKED FOR YOU AS WELL. LEAVE COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS BELOW, AND IF YOU SEE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM IN OTHER THREADS, RE- DIRECT THEM TO THIS THREAD.
This is what I got when repairing the partition. You should have a message as well.
um... if they can't start up the device, how are they going to download it from the play store and install to run it? Thanks!
Are you able to go into DOWNLOAD MODE AND FLASH FIRMWARE? I had the Mmc_failed screen and my phone would not turn on until I took everything out the phone; battery, both cards and s pen, then hold all the buttons down.
Try this to reboot like I described up at top.
Turn the phone off. Pull the battery out, s pen out, SD card and SIM CARD.
PRESS AND HOLD ALL HARDWARE BUTTONS FOR 10 SECONDS WITH EVERYTHING OUT THE PHONE. I CLICK ALL THE BUTTONS SEVERAL TIMES TO GET ANY ELECTRIC CURRENT OUT THE PHONE. IT WON'T BOOT UP IF YOU DON'T DO THAT. I'm assuming it messes with the boot up process. Anyways, Re assemble and boot. When I was having this mmc_failed crap, it would take several times doing these steps so that the phone could boot. Don't get frustrated and try again until it boots up. Sometimes it would sit on the NOTE 4 screen, other times it would boot up to the Android logo with the mmc_failed screen. It takes several attempts since the PARTITIONS TO THE SD CARD ARE CORRUPTED. IF YOU ARE ABLE TO ODIN FLASH FIRMWARE, FLASH THE FIRMWARE TO HELP YOU BOOT UP. FLASH TWRP, THEN ROM, then you will have root.
If you still get the mmc_ boot after repairing it, erase the partition, and create it again. I updated the guide on top on how to do that. Haven't had a single hiccup or Mmc_failed bs since then. Good luck guys.
Please report back if it worked for you.
I will try this as soon as I can. The t-mobile store I went to was unhelpful and only wanted to sell me a new phone, even though I've only had the phone for 1 yr and 1 week. The problems started 2 weeks ago. Thank you for giving me hope.

No problem. Save everything important from your sd card and formatt it. That also helps. Try booting up your phone without your sd card. You know what mmc is? An sd card. Google it. Ive seen corrupt sd cards prevent phones from booting up.
Now I can't turn on the phone to fix like you. This morrning I'n in stock DOK2 and have all of error like you. I flash TWRP and flash cook rom, hope can fix like you. But after flash TWRP succesfull, I'm flash cook rom but the phone turn off and can't turn on. when it turn on, it go in to download mode and notice MMcC read fail. I try many time but it still like that. I use odin to load DOK2 Stock firwame but it FAIL. try many time still FAIL
now I don;t know anything need to do to save my phone. lol
What does it fix??
I tried using this application and the first partition that came up was a 61240 Mb partition. I thought it has to be my external SD card. Then i pulled out the external sd card and ran this application again. This time it did not find any partition.
Is this what its suppose to do? If not can you post a screenshot of your partition list.
Thanks

After flashing TWRP AND THE COOKED ROM, TURN OFF THE PHONE. TAKE THE BATTERY OUT....SIM CARD OUT...TAKE THE SD CARD OUT AND THE S PEN PUT.
THEN WITH ALL THAT OUT, PRESS AND HOLD POWER FOR 20 SECONDS. THEN TRY TURNING ON THE PHONE. HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND IT TURNED ON AFTER A FEW TRIES.
U may need tp try to do that a few times until you get it to power on.
This is Kinda confusing, we are talking about the INTERNAL STORAGE here, Right? If so, How on earth an App can Format the Internal Storage while its being used obviously by the OS itself? and How can it NOT erase any Media files? It seems very unrealistic approach? unless we boot the system using external boot device then wipe the affected partition, think "Ultimate Boot CD" or "Hiren" for Windows.
What you are saying is like this: Boot Windows laptop/Desktop normally, then Format C: from within Windows !!!
I know you mentioned REPAIR PARTITION, that would/might be OKAY, but to Re-Create the Partition of the MMC (Internal Storage), this sounds crazy, and not even doable.
Please Shed some more lights into this !
It does not fix internal SD

If you take out the external SD card, the app does not detect any partition. So this means that we are never fixing the internal memory, just the external one.
