I'm running Android from the SD card but then my HTC says there's no SD card installed. Is there any way to get around this? If I partition the card will that remedy the problem?
Thanks

Today my x started saying the memory card was blank. It will not let me format it or anything. Anyone else have this happen yet?
I have gotten a not recognized mesage before. I took the battery out and pulled the sd card out then booted the phone. Then turn the phone back off and try re-inserting the card.
Do you have another sdcard reader that you can test it in?

I just got a Droid X used. It didn't come with a memory card. I tried the 4gb card out of my Incredible but it wasn't recognized. I tried an old 1gb card. Not recognized. I bought a new 8gb card from Sam's Club. Not recognized.
I did a search here and this post is the closest to what I am experiencing.
I tried to format the new 8gb card to FAT32 just to see what happens. No success.
I have rebooted the phone several times, removed and reinserted the card, and made sure it is seated properly.
The Settings>Storage screen states the following:
Total space - Unavailable
Available space - Unavailable
Mount SD card - Insert an SD card for mounting <grayed out>
Format SD card - Format (erase) SD card <grayed out>
Any suggestions?
If this is a software glitch and rooting is an option, I can do that. I am familiar with rooting from my Incredible. I am hesitant to root with this issue lingering.
Thanks.

have you tried cleaning the sdcard slot? just a thought. if that does not work then its possibly a defective slot.
how can i install an application on 2gb sd card on HD2 running with WP7?
you dont need to.
WP7 uses SD storage and its internal memory in a form of RAID
basically, if you install WP7 with your 2GB SD card installed and the SD card is compatible, then you will use the SD card anyway,
I recently changed over to WM7 on my HTC HD2. I've installed all of the software but it won't view my SD card. Is there something i'm missing?
Thanks
installed once the attached file. so you can access on your sd card

The SD card has to be in your phone when you first boot wp7, and wp7 formats and makes sd part of internal memory. You cannot read other sd cards with wp7 except the one that is formatted and part of the memory, but you can not take that card out and use with a card reader after that. WP7 doesn't support the reading of external memory cards.
Hi. I was directed to this website, because I had a problem with my HTC HD2, regarding the SD Card. I had Android installed on my sd and was booted on it. I selecting the Unmount SD Card > Erase SD Card data while booted to Android. After I restarted my phone, (it was now switched to windows 6.5) It is no longer detecting my SD Card at all. I tried reseting to factory settings but that didnt work. It is a 2 gb SD card. i dont care about the files in it, I was want it to detect the SD card with all its storage space. Any help would be greatly appreciated. =)

Take the card out, put it in a card reader, card reader goes in the PC and format to FAT32. It should work then. If it still doesn't, you could try software from this site:
http://www.partitionwizard.com/
It's a partitioning software. You can check the health of the card, it could be that it's just dead. You can probably get a new 8GB microSD for around $6.
Good luck!
Did you try changing it?

I started to play around with the sdrom today but when i try to download app/take a photo.
No sdcard is found. Do i need to set up a ext3orext4 on the sd card?? Would the rom just find the ext3orext4 dir?? Whats the best method
You just need to have your SD card partitioned for WP7 and Android. Since the ROM is running off the SD card, I'd assume it should regconize it right away. Try a reboot if you haven't, or mounting SD card in settings if it shows it as being there, but not mounted [ I doubt it, but it's worth looking at].
Its strange, in storage under SD CARD it says 'insert an SD card for mounting'
WHEN, its got to be inserted, as the ROM is running on the SD Card partition. It shows over a 1GB of space in internal storage? Think i will try a fresh install of the Android ROM. WP7 is running fine.

Going to install a cwm partition which matches rom, i think this will fix the issue.

I don't know why you are getting issues with photos and stuff, but your SD ROM is running fine. Android SD cannot mount the SD card as Android is running off the SD card. The 1gb internal storage is the data.img file in the 'Android' folder which is read as your internal storage by Android. I wouldn't mess around with CWM, it won't solve anything for SD Android and may result in you deleting WP7 if I'm not mistaken (but if you already have CWM installed then I am very much mistaken)
Not sure if it helps, but did you set both WP7 and Fat32 partitions as "Primary" when you set up the card? (use minitool partition magic)
