Try this!
hello. If you are trying to format your sd card with window xp or windows XX. you will never use your sd card in any camera, pocket pc, palm again.
If your computer can not format your sd card, there are 2 possibilities:
1. Your memory chip is damaged
2. You can try to creat boot image using XDA tool and put it in to your XDA. Finally create a boot image. Now. Romve the sd card and plug it in the XDA again, your XDA will ask you to format it. IF not, your memory chip is damaged. Good luck!
i had issues with not being able to format my sd card under winXP
but i could format it with pocket mechanics just fine dident need to format from the bootloader at all

Thanks but that's not what I means.
In my case, when I format the SD card (quick format) by the laptop, it works with only the laptop. When I format the SD card (quick format) by my pocket PC, it works with only my pocket PC.
The SD card works pretty well separately on each device.
The 2 devices cannot use the same fomarted SD card.
That's the problem.
use pocket mechanics to see what the xda format the sd card to fat32 fat16 or ???
see what the laptop format the card to fat32 or fat16 or NTFS
the xda cant real ntfs at all
and some sd readers have problems with fat16 or 32 i forget

(Q) How to bring my SD card back?

Hey - I just seem to stuck here, I formated my SD card with android and it was unmounted . now I cant mount it back on WM , I only saw its possible in android.
But now of course I cant install android becouse I don't have my SD card..
How to mount it back??
Try to re-format the card to FAT using this methood in Ubunto
and then re-format with windows. Don't know if it will work, but worth a try.

Just google Ubuntu download and burn the iso to a cd. Boot system and find the disk utility in menu system upper left. Don't compound your error by formating your hard drive instead of the SD. Careful!
sd formater.
SD format might work
but if windows does not see the card, sd format might not see it either. He said it could only be seen in Android.
I had also problems with a dead 8gb micro sd in android. I could not bring it back to live under windows7 neither under macosx. I just plugged the card into a sanyo xacti camera with an sd adapter and the Sanyo asked me for formatting... Card was back to life.
It is worth to try with a camera, just my 2 cents experience.

Man, you just saved my previous 16GB card So happy!
Problem solved!
You just need to plug in and select disk drive - then it lets you format the card and you can see it normal again .

Blank External SD card

Is your sdcard locked by that little plastic knob on your card?
what files system are you formatting with recommend you use this app to format externally in your computer with a card reader

thanks for the tip, its working great now
Well, its not working again. It was working for a while, then i had to root my SGS so i removed SD card, rooted my SGS and then reinserted Sd card, now its saying Damaged SD card you have to format it, when i format it, no error message appears and nothing happens and notification area is still saying Damaged SD card.
Any suggestions??
What brand is it, dont tell me its a unbranded one, or a cheap ebay one, it could be a fake one, use you pc to format it fat or use the sd formatter, when you put it into the phone, unmount it then format again using the phone before use.
I have a 32gb adata class 2, 32gb lexar class 10, and many 8gb and 16gb from kingston, toshiba and sandisk in class 2 to class 6, all works.
Connect phone with USB cable in mass storage mode .
Format the SD card then run scandisk/error checking on the card .

[Q] SD Card damaged?

Hello,
i have a huge problem with my sd card. Currently i have Dorimanxs latest GB (lite version) installed and the rom itself
works how it should, but if i reboot the SD Card gets damaged, a lot of apps are missing and there are a lot of files with crazy names.
I tried to format the Sd card and i think it will be the same next time.
Any idea?
cheers.
Had similiar issue. Test your card by putting in sd card reader connected with pc and run chkdsk command in command prompt in windows.
If doesn't help, download aplication for win called sd formatter and make full format of sd card.
Your problem could be related with some kind of app2sd script IF its in use with your rom or which was also my case your sd card is at end of life span.
