sd card damaged - any ideas? - Hero, G2 Touch General

Hi,
Yesterday my sdcard decided to stop working I just get the sdcard damaged notification, I am running modaco 3.0 and have it partitioned. I have tried putting the card in my pc but it won't detect it.
Anyone any ideas on how to fix this?

repartition your card in recovery menu.

I have a similar problem.
I want to format my card in the phone. I click unmount and then format. nothing happens.
I've repartitioned the whole card as 2gb Fat32 and still my phone wont format the card. I can read/write from the card no problem, but it won't format when it's in my phone.
any ideas?

if your card works now, why do you want to format it?

SD problem!!

My Jam can't read my card!!
The information can be found, and the files/folders inside of the SD can be found..But it doesn't show up..I need to go to the finding thing and then it comes up as a list..Not a folder saying "SD"..
Anybody have a clue why it does that?
I've seen this problem before with a Ridata 1GB SD card. The data and structure on the card become corrupt. I've been able to fix this by backing up whatever is on the card (whatever is salvagable) and then doing a reformat of the card. If it won't let you reformat on the ppc, try doing it first on a regular pc with an SD card slot.

Hmm..Good idea, thanks.

Unable to format SD Card

Since upgrade to MCR 2.9 rom i have been unable to format my SD card. I had an 8gb class6 card formatted to fat32 when inserted says the card is blank and doesn't format the card, same with a new 2gb card.
any one got any ideas??
im still running MCR 2.8 and i seem to have the same problem. i am unable to format my sd card.
Hi,I have same problem after updated to modaco 3.1,I can unmount the sdcard,but after I click format nothing happenes,and I cannot install ra-recovery,maybe because a first problem...
Anybody know how to solve it?
Same problem here... i tried everything. im pretty sure this card is dead. It was a samsung and happened after i used iSyncr and removed it not "safely" -
Try to format the card with windows, trough your phone or, if i't not working, with another reader, like a camera or a sdcard reader.
Use this software to format it:

Do a FULL format not a quick one. After you finish, format the sd card again with android and create your ext.2 partition if necessary.
Let me know

DHD SD card blank or unsupported?

Hello everyone, i have encountered with one problem, after formatting my sd card from my macbook using Fat format, now when it was done, when i eject my memcard from PC it refreshes and the error came like sd card blank or has an unsupported format, i have tried formatting sd card from that popup but no response i have also used sd formatter from the market still no benefit.
Can you try another SD card?
have you tried formatting the card in your DHD?
What kind of SD card are you formatting? Model/size etc. Can you use it with your computer? Have you tried formatting it with your phone, Settings > SD & phone storage, unmount then format.
Hey thanks for everyone kind attention, i am using 8gb card, actually i have corrupted my card during formatting from my PC, and i have tried formatting from my cell phone but it didn't solve the problem accept ok popup and error again, what i did to resolve this issue is to put my sd card into my another phone which is BB, as i even can't connect it from my MAC, and formatted my sd card from BB than i put that card again into my HTC DHD and now it is working perfectly fine. =)
yea. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[Q] Rooting without internal SD

Hi,
I got a Galaxy Y from a friend and I was trying to MOD it. I discovered that the internal SD is not available... and no way to get it back. I tried to wipe data, hard reset, stock firmware upload with ODIN but no way to get the internal SD back. I tried ADB in order to try to push the ZIP files in a ROM folder but of course no permissions as it's not rooted.
So, no way to root my mobile without copying the files to the SD?
Thanks in advance
Joe
I dont know what you mean by internal sd - galaxy y 5360/6102 doesnt have internal sd - it uses a mico sd card to which you will find the slot if you take the cover off and look on the right hand side of the phone
place any files you want on the sd card either via card reader or usb cable
please note that questions should be asked in the question and answer section and NOT the general section

Thanks Marcus,
I did not know the mobile had no internal SD.
That's the kind of information that saves a lots of time and work!
Thanks again.

Ok,
I tried to use a Miscro SD on the GT-S5360 but there was no way to have it acccepted by the phone.
I formatted the Micro SD (Sandisk 2G) in many ways (full formatting) and it was mounted OK with all my other phones (Galaxy S, LG L5II, Huawei) but not for the Galaxy Y. I tried to format the card with the other Samsung too but it did not work..
I've read a lot around about the "blank SD" issue on many mobiles and tried some of the suggested tricks but with no luck.
So, assuming there is no way to have a MicroSD installed on the phone, I resume the original question:
- Is there any way to root the GT-S5630 without an SD card?
Thanks in advance
Joe
well unless your sd card slot is damaged there should be no reason why it shouldnt work
the sd card needs to be formatted in fat32
there best way to do it is to inset your sd card into your phone
goto phone settings
storage
unmount sd card (sd must be unmounted before you can format it)
format sd card
you can also format it via your pc using a card reader as long as its fat32 but its best to format it using the phone or format it again using the phone as sometimes cwm may have problems mounting the sd card if you use something else to format it
You might find universal root tools via google but the quickest most simple way is just to use a root zip file and flash it in recovery or cwm

Thanks Marcus, your replies are very quick .
I tried formatting the SD card FAT32 with different Allocation unit sizes, always full formatting, never quick.
The SD card is recognized as BLANK SD CARD (or unsupported filesystem) when inserted with the phone ON. The same occurs when I switch ON the phone with the SD card alredy inserted. The card is never mounted
The internal formatting functionality of the phone seems to be not working at all. The function FORMAT SD CARD is enabled but when launched it lasts just few seconds and nothing happens (the card is not mounted neither automatically nor by hand).
There could be some compatibility issues between the card and the phone and it could be worth to buy another SD to test the phone card reader again, but I'm not confident it will work.

allocation unit size is I think 16 kilobytes but just select default - quick format is fine if the card is not damaged
you can try using mini tool to delete the partition on the sd card and create a new one and format it to fat32
you can then try reformatting it on your phone after
Mini Tool Download

Thanks for your help Marcus,
I tried MiniTool, with both FAT and FAT32 (the card is a 2GB card) but the result is still the same: BLANK SD CARD.
I will try to buy a new one tomorrow and see if it makes any difference...
Thanks again

Ok I got a new MicroSD today and everything seems to work fine.
Thanks again Marcus.

SD Card Format issue

I have a samsung 256GB Evo card, and i just installed a new rom this rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/rom-natf-1-00-test-5-debloated-stock-t3509750
So i seen the little sd icon and i tap on it and it said my sd card is corrupted and needs to be formated. so i put into my computer and copied all the data before i wiped. I formated the SD on windows for extfat and put the card into my v20 and boot it up and i got the same error message. so i went ahead and formatted it using the phone. Plugged the card back into my computer and it shows it was formatted in fat32 format. which is strange. anyway i reformatted it again in windows and put the card back in the phone and got the same thing.
Anyone using this card or phone can verify if your v20 formats the card in fat32 format and let me know. if not anyway to fix it?
