Fire away !! I've got a useless 2gb here

Yeah, please share!
I've ruined my sdcard

Just format the card in a photo camera.
Or do it like me, and format it in Windows Mobile 6.5.3.
Simple.

dude post the tut already.
Many people would appreciate this and not just HD2 users.
GG

I inserted my card in an external card reader and formatted it with SD formatter.
Worked perfectly.

Ok cool. Glad it worked. To each his own I guess lol...I myself do not own a digital card reader nor a digital camera or any apparatus to read Micro SD CARDs so this guide is what worked for me and I posted it to help people who may find themselves in my shoes.

I used Gpart and booting via MAGLDR --> USB Storage --> partitioned SD into a FAT32 and EXT3, so you're directly ready for Android NAND ROM

Genius! worked great! Thanks!

question: what do you mean by "ruined"? Other devices not recognizing the card or something else??
I have a 4GB card but my PC and Android read it as it has 200mb memory total... is that what happens???
I have WP7 now, so it means that its using the rest of my memory rite??
EDIT: Zune software says that i have 2gb free, so im guessing yea

it works!!
Genius, it works!!! thanks man.

To those who reflash back to an android nand
If you go back to an Android Nand build, and you have reflashed android back onto your phone, all you have to do to reformat your card is:
1) Make sure card is inserted in the phone
2) Go to SD card and phone storage under settings
3) Erase SD card data
I had a 32G card. After flashing WP7 all other devices could only read 200megs.
After following steps above, the SD card was reformatted back to 32G being readable by all devices.
No need to download any software, or use a Nokia. Anyway this worked for me, hope this helps

just worked perfect, thanks a lot!!

thank you, worked on both my micro sdhc cards

Is this a solution for a HTC HD2 Windows pHone 7 .... ? to get it work

works perfectly!!!! thanx a million

It just reorganize partitions in SDcard.
Alternativly you can just use any partitioning tool to fix the problem.

Fortunately,one of my SD cards came with a small Lexar card reader so i just used that in my usb port. I did notice that WP7 had used up just about all my memory on the card but the reader actually has an option to format,so i did that and now i have a clean 16GB card again. I saw a tutorial explaining how to put WP7 (well,the memory it uses on SD anyway) and Android from SD on the same card and i really want to try that but...with WP7,it keeps resetting itself after it recovers from sleep mode. if they can fix that,imma try it !!

Sweet! SD formatter is much faster than any Partition Manager! Thanks.

Exactly, I just get to the bootscreen, installed a new rom. Bye bye WP7, then in phone extra's SD Format and ready

How to recover bricked (locked) SD card by WP7

If you have ruined your Micro SD by installing WP7 over it, here is the solution;
First and the fastest solution is to find a friend with a Nokia symbian phone like N8. Insert the card into the phone, phone says "locked SD" press cancel when it attempts for unclock code. Then use tools menu and select reformat. Get along well with that friend if you ever plan to flash WP7 again.
Second solution is to flash a NAND Android build with working USB storage while keeping the same card in the HD2. When flashing Android recognizes the card and creates a 200 MB partition on it. So this seems to be your card's new capacity. After flashing connect to a PC and select USB storage mode. Now you are done with the HD2, leave it connected in this state.
Windows (Win7 in my case) can see and even quick format the card as USB drive. However you need to low level format with flash erase. Search the forum (or use google) and get the program "SDFormatter V2.9.0.5" of Panasonic. Install it to your PC. When you run it, pick your SD drive, click options, choose Full (Erase ON) in the Format Type and "ON" in the format size adjustment tab. Then click format on the main window. Now you can leave and find something else to kill your time. Depending on the size of your SD this may take a few hours. When it is done, congratulations, you have recovered your SD. Depending on the assigned allocation unit size, Android may not recognize your SD, but your PC surely does. in this case, you need to quick format your SD with Win 7 or another program by choosing default allocation size.
The point here is, if Android recognizes the card, which means it can bypass the "Secure Digital" locking mechanism, then SD is not "secured" anymore and we should be able to format it to the proper capacity in the same way it automatically does for the preset 200MB. I guess lock is somehow removed by MAGLDR (or Android) and we only need to wipe out everything on the SD.
I just reflashed Android(NAND), then reformatted sd card and have 14GB space available. Then saw this post. Will do rest to get all of my SDCard back. Thanks.
SDFormatter v3.0 (BETA)
I had the same problem with WP7 "shrinking" my card. After reading this thread, I searched for SDFormatter and found BETA v3.0. Using that, I was able to just put my card into my PC's card reader and do a format, and got my full 16Gb back.
Just make sure you choose FORMAT TYPE as "FULL" (Erase or OverWrite -- I used "Erase" but I doubt it matters), and most importantly, set FORMAT SIZE ADJUSTMENT to "On."
okay, i've tried using minitools partition to try and delete the 200mb partition and then recreate the entire 16gb that is my microsd as well as sdformatter with full (erase as well as overwrite) with size adjustment on but the problem is that i can only see one partition, the 200mb partition, i can't even see the the second partition or whatever that wp7 created
anyone have any other solutions?
When SDFormatter finished formatting your card, you should have gotten a pop-up giving you the results and listing the size of the card.
On that pop-up, did it say 200MB or had it changed to 14.8GB (which is the usable space on a 16GB card)?
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Just simply flash WinMo and use HTC's SD Card format tool in it, works fine (I did it myself that way).
When you format, you format a partition.
WM7 creates 2 partitions, the first one 200Mb and the rest of the SD for the 2nd.
To recover the SD:
1/ delete all partitions (I used EASEUS but many other soft will work, Win7 disk managment will not)
2/ create a new partition
3/ format it.
When I can't recover a disk I use a bootable distri of Linux, it's powerful to manage disks (sorry I've lost my disk so google will be your friend).
Great!
worked but had to do it via card reader on computer. Found SDFormatter V 3.0 and set to full erase and overwrite. Took about an hour but got my memory back! Thanks!
Nokia E51 did the trick
Just to confirm that a humble Nokia E51 was good enough to format an encrypted SDHC 16GB Kingstone Class 4.
After doctor Nokia's cure, I was able to recover all the space, I then used "SD Formatter 3.1" tool in order to totally clean up the card, just in case.
Repeated the trick also against a 16GB SDHC Class 10 Trascend, same great result
HTH
Nothing worked
Tried 5 Nokia phones (no E51 unfortunately), some of them ask for a password even if I say Format or delete the password. Some say that the card is corrupted and refuse to format it. Can anyone advise anything. I have an original SanDisk 16 gb SDHC class 2 card from HD2 T-Mobile. It was locked by WP and I cannot use it anymore.
Any advise will be much appreciated !!
OP's advice doesn't work?
Oh.
I assume that you got rid of it by installing Android. And I assume you haven't got rid of your HD2 yet. If second assumption is wrong, you may go and look for a device that can see the card. If only the first is wrong, skip the next paragraph.
Flash WP7 again. Updating it isn't necessary, but the tool may not work.
Download DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab from here. Send it to your device through WP7 Cab Sender. If you don't have it, download it from here. If you don't know how to use it - put the .cab next to the "WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat" file.
Use it. Double-click that .bat file, exit Zune, wait few seconds and press S. It doesn't work? Install the tool from "if needed install this tool" folder. No need to reboot, just go to that .bat file and press S again. The phone will reboot and the cab will be installed. On the phone tap that key icon, tap OK and ta-dah - the card is unlocked. Turn off WP7, take the card out, use it. Optional - get rid of WP7.
Thank you for your reply. I still have HD2 and it runs Mango just fine. The thing is that 16 gb card was the one that didn't want to work properly with WP. So I bought another one (not one ))) ) Transcend 8gb class 4 and it works fine. So, right now I have one useless 16gb card and I decided to bring it back to life. My only concern, If I switch the cards, will I loose any data on my 8 gig card (I have installed all soft that I need, and I do not want to loose it ), or maybe my phone will start to behave strange? I'm really tired of hard resets and re-installs.
Thank you in advance.
PS
That is why I was trying Nokia "trick"
No, the files should be there. But! WP7 may not boot and tell you that you have to use your 8gb sd. If it doesnt - good, you may unlock it. If it does, then... You will need to hardreset WP7 and that deletes all your files. Or turn it off and go back to your working card and look for devices that may see and format your 16gb.

Thanks, will try what you suggested
good job man..
All of this doesn't seem to work for me. I keep ending up in a boot loop when trying the DEV_STORAGELOCK method. The only WP7 version that i can get to work is XBmod 7004 as the HD2 also ends up in a boot loop when i try to update it. My pc won't recognize my card in any way. And the sad thing is that I only have 1 card with me at the moment. any solutions??
Haven't read the whole thread but Panasonic's SD formatter works a treat if you have access to anything that can mount the SD card to a PC.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
anyone here who also had the problem that even SD formatter cannot repair the SD card?
well before formating any way to get the data on the SD card back? 16GB SD card is like 10-15 USD its not a big issue if u lose the card, but the issue actually is in the data that we might loose
If u want to get back your data u can use O&O Disk Recovery. This program restored my files from formatted and locked SD card.

[Q]How to make SD card ready for WP7?

Hi,
I have Sandisk 2gb SD card which comes with hd2, i installed WP7 but it seems that WP7 can not recognize my SD because when i put SD in my computer nothing is changed in my SD even i tested it, I put some files in SD and reinstall WP7 so as far as i understand wp7 has to format my SD put its specific partition but guess what nothing is changed in my SD even that files remain in the same place...
So i tried to format SD my self with FAT32 and FAT and even i delete my SD partition and none of them make WP7 format and make partitions on my SD card...
P.S-1 My SD card is working i tested it wit my computer by formatting copy some files there so read and write is ok.
P.S-2 WP7 booted correctly in this situation i mean when SD is in device the only problem i have is WIFI can not find any router when SD is in device, when i took it out wifi start working, why i'm saying this because i aware of compatibility issue of WP7 with some SD cards where it reboots if it is not compatible .
same thing happens to me, I am now trying to reinstall (again) wp7, and it seems it got stuck at the DFT screen..... previously it booted almost inmediately. maybe it is partitioning it?, for those of you guys that sd card works, wp7 boots inmidiately?
Yeah SD cards makes crash wifi !
And i cannot use it... Flash WP7 with formated SD cards NTFS but still doesn't works !
First time i istalled WP7 without SD card and when i afterward inserted card nothing was changed. Then i made Factory Reset from Settings menu and my phone started to restart over and over from point where DFT banner shws first time after loader. Then i went to the loader and as i can remember then i re-selected preferred boot source and then for me all was good. Now it show 1.6GB free space with my original HD2 SD card.
i am having axactly the same trouble. i have a san disk 2 gb too. it'll be enough for me but wp7 does not recognize it. i installed both sd-card inserted and sd-card not inserted. i booted with sd-cad and without sd-card. i tried every posibility but no result
reserved space is %95 on zune and it tells me there is no disk space. so i cant start using it full functionally and it makes me really sad
any help is appreciated. thanks.

I have exact the same problem.. i found some sort of "solution". but it is a bit strange. when I pull out the sd card, boot my phone in magldr, insert my sd card and boot wp7, It shows the normal storage instead of the 15 mb.
but when I try a normal reboot without going to magldr, its going back to the 15 mb. and when I try to sync my phone with zune,(with the put-sdcard-in-phone-when-in-magldr-solution) everything goes slow.
Dont know if you (or someone else) already found a "good" solution?
greetz
all of you guys have an incompatible SD card, sorry guys, will need to buy a new one, its a bit of a lottery as that too might not work and dispite what some on here say its impossible to recomend anything.
only advice i can give is get a card that class 2 or 4 and dont spend money on a card that you may end up using for a tiny paperwight
is my sd card gone?
After I successfully flash WM7, I juz realize that my pc not recognize my sd card when i connect my phone to d computer. First, i thought becoz of some bug of wm7 so i try to flash android back. I took my sd card put into a card reader but it still not recognize my sd card. Is it gone?
What about the sd unlock tool that xbmod released ? try a few nokia devices or a device which takes sd card to see if you can unlock... Check out 96edwy video on YouTube on how to unlock after wp7
I have the same problem like arrirang .
When I put my SdCard to CardReader, windows 7 does not recognize SD Card in reader. If I try proces mentioned in video tutorial -> result is the same. Device USB Mass Storage is displayed in device manager with error code.
I was trying it in three computers (two with windows 7 x64 and one with Windows XP) - the result was allways the same.
Any one help me?
EDIT:
I have found this solution:
1. Connect USB cable from PC to phone.
2. At PC, enter WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
3. Go to ‘if needed install this tool’ folder.
4. Install Setup-UpdateWP (x64 for 64 bits Windows and x86 for 32 bits Windows).
5. Copy DEV_STORAGELOCK.cab to WP7-Update-Cab-Sender folder.
6. Run WP7 Update Cab Sender.bat.
7. Then type S – (S)end Cabs to device.
8. After finished installation, close WP7 Update Cab Sender.
9. Disconnect USB cable from phone.
10. At WP7, launch StorageLock.
11. Click yes to unlock SD card.
12. Shutdown your phone.
13. Put your SD card into card reader.
14. Launch Partition Wizard Home Edition (download it here)
15. You should see 2 partitions on SD card.
16. Delete both of them.
17. Create a primary FAT32 file type partition.
18. Click ‘Apply’ to begin the process.
19. That’s all.
It works! I kid you not!!

You should know that Installing wp7 locks your card so thats why it is not recognised by your pc..
Have you installed mango or another wp7 version on this sd card or succesfully on another?? I take it, you have no nokia devices that can format your card?
If you have mango installed transfer the storageunlock.cab to the phone followed by partition cab (got to be less than your total capacity) Reset your phone check if partition has taken effect..unlock using storage lock.turn off phone ..take sd card out into adapter into your pc now it should be readable (not full capacity bear in mind) you have to use easeus partition tool to format to full..
If you have mango on a different sd card and want to recover the corrupt one
Check this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286511
Or if your using just the same sd card you have to start over again and reflash from task 29 stock magdlr radio ie then storage unlock tool
Good luck
hey my problem is that wp7 in my hd2 shows internal memory of 175mb only even though my 8gb sd card is inserted in it..i cant seem to find a sloution to make my phone show the sd card memory..any solution please?
I have the same problem
it's probably because you installed wp7 without the sd card in it and you did not hard reset after installing rom...if so, you need to do a hard reset with the sd card in it for wp7 to recognize the card. or you have a bad card to begin with and the wp7 install had problems.

[Q] sd card

please help. i have installed WP7 on my HD2 but cant get to my sd card (photos,music etc.). anyone know what the problem is? thank you
What make is your SD card? Was it in the phone when you flashed WP7?
its a kingston 8gb sd card. and card wasnt been in phone whenever i flashed WP7.
wp7 was never designed to support ejectable memory like sd cards. Of course there is a internal (beacaus you have to open the back cover) sd card. So you have to insert the sd card at the first reboot or make a hard reset. wp7 will integrate the sd card to its memory. If you change the card, you have to do the same procedure.
you need to put SD card in BEFORE you flash it or plug in the SD card and do a hard reset
also copy everything of your SD card as windows will format it
to be clear
Installing Windows phone 7 WILL delete everything on that card so back it up before!!
thank you all guys. that was very helpful

turn off the device, hold down the buttons - vol up and vol down, then tap the power button, keep holding the vol up and down and you will get the a message to reset your phone. i believe its vol down to clear and vol down again once its finished.
The phone will reboot, and should install windows again, if it doesnt the go in to magldr and reflash the ROM
oh and keep the SD card in this time!

Perhaps try putting into a USB card reader or SD card adapter, then try seeing if the computer recognizes it.

Yeah get yourself a SD card adaptor to put your SD card in and then put it in the SD card slot on your computer, or if you do not have one get a USB SD card reader to put the adaptor in. They will run you something like 8 to 10th dollars USD for both to get them.
Also your card is like this bot because you erased the MBR on your SD card. It is because on the first boot of WP7 it formats your memory card with a RAID format so it can use your SD card as internal memory. You have to do a low level format of the card to remove it. Once the low level format is done you will have to do a full format of it again with Fat32
This is for others that well read this, if you flash a WP7 ROM and it boots up but you so not like it or it does not work right. Do not, I repeat do not try flashing the ROM again or try flashing another WP7 ROM before doin the low level format and then a Fat32 format on your SD card. If you do you will probably end up with a trashed SD card.
Thanks i will try that..
No, i cant do nothing... i try with a external sdcard reader over usb and the sdformater just stops working when i start or do a refresh. i try with others sd cards and the new sdcard reader works good...
Any more ideas?

[Q] had wp7 running, switched sd cards, not neither card words

hi really did try searching for this couldn't find any help.
i successfully had WP7 on my hd2 with a 4GB card, had it activated via chat and everything. I wanted to put in my 16GB card and try setting up a dual boot with android.
WP7 gives me an error now "memory card not working" and my only option is to turn off phone (or make emergency call).
it gives me that error with the 4GB card and the 16GB card.
i have tried reflashing it with the 16GB in it and that doesn't work.
I have tried reflashing it with no card in it and that doesn't work.
pretty sure i tried with the 4GB card too.
i know both cards work. the 4GB still has the small partition and the larger unknown from the wp7 install.
any help please?

""""This article provides information to help you understand how Windows Phone 7 devices use SD cards, the performance requirements of SD cards for Windows Phone 7 devices, and how your phone will behave if you remove the SD card or add a new one.
Some Windows Phone 7 devices include a Secure Digital (SD) card slot underneath the battery cover. If you buy a Windows Phone 7 device that includes an SD card slot, you should be aware of several important differences from other devices that use SD cards:
The SD card slot in your phone is intended to be used only by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) that built your phone and your Mobile Operator (MO). These partners can add an SD card to this slot to expand the amount of storage on your phone.
To help ensure a great user experience, Microsoft has performed exhaustive testing to determine which SD cards perform well with Windows Phone 7 devices. Microsoft has worked closely with OEMs and MOs to ensure that they only add these cards to Windows Phone 7 devices.
You should not remove the SD card in your phone or add a new one because your Windows Phone 7 device might not work properly. Existing data on the phone will be lost, and the SD card in your phone can't be used in other Windows Phones, PCs, or other devices.""""

I used a PNY 16GB c4 SD card for dual boot, no problem. WP7 is picky though.
4GB is cutting it WAY too close for any kind of functional dual boot. Each OS takes about 1GB. That doesn't leave you much room for anything else.
that's interesting that my pny 16GB doesn't work while yours does.
I tried to setup dual boot but i didn't do something right cause i get a load error when i try to do from the SD rom.
when setting the card up for dual boot, i was watching a youtube video of a person here doing it, at one point the partition they are working on goes from fat 16 to fat 32 but he doesn't describe doing it.

i'm not sure if that is the prob or what. I ended up converting the partition to fat 32
i got the dual boot figured out using this guide instead:

there was some editing i was not doing.
this was with the 4GB. i'll try to find another bigger card that works.
