Hello everyone. I really need help with this problem and would be very grateful if you helped me.
I accidentally took out my MicroSd card from my phone, when I tried to put it back in it wouldn't read it so I went ahead and plugged it to the computer, when I try to access it it says "The disk in drive H is not formatted. Do you want to format it no?" I always press no.
Here's what it says in the Disk Management

1. The card is fake
2. Use mini partition tool to format or repartition
3. Search online for SanDisk repair tool Chinese version
4. Use Linux related OS to check partition size
5. Worse state use hirens boot CD , boot the system on hirens based on Windows XP format it from device management. It will restore your total volume when you are able to get the tricks right.

Lol I've been using this card for over 3 years and it always had 31 gb of data without a problem so it being fake is out of the question. I need to retrieve the data out of it before formatting

That is the behavior of sandisk, is of low quality you might not believe this. Your data is corrupted. After bringing back the volume it may corrupt again.
That is the best options I have provided. I had SanDisk recovery tool but my system had crash severally. The best way is to use hirens boot cd.

But this happened when I tool out my microsd card out off my phone without safely ejecting it first. I can always get a new card I just want to recover my data hopefully. When I use a partition program it says no partition found

If you have,
1. digital camera insert it to check storage.
2. Old phone that can read 32gb microsd can repair it.
I use these native methods to recover my staff.

Hi,
I am planning to buy a 16GB Micro SD Card for X10 Mini, need help on following
1. Can I buy any 16GB micro sd card (class 6 and above) will it work, or it has to be specifically from SE?
2. Once I have 16GB micro sd card, what are the steps to replace the existing card and its contents. Do i need to copy all the folders from existing micro sd to new sd card? What should be the format of SD card, fat, fat32, ext2/3/4 ? Kindly suggest.
Any other technicalities to take care off ?
Furthermore I would like to use APPtoSD either on 2.1 if its easy or else when 2.2 gets on, so do i need to prepare the new sd card specifically for this?
Thanks
1) don't know, I bought a 16GB online from sandisk and it works well, i can help if you can tell how to get the "class"
2) my sd is in fat32 as the old one so no problems here. I suppose that if you move from fat32 to ext* you need to handle permissions somehow. I use a linux distro and when I do this moves I use the command "cp -a" that preserves permission (doesn't matter for fat) and modification date so if some software relies on modification dates of files it doesn't screw up
Thanks,
Class is written on top of the card. See the attached image the 6 witten inside the circle shows the class.

Does putting in a 16Gb card reduced the performance or increased the lags?
CM 7
I've looked around at a lot of places and haven't found a clear answer to this one yet.
I’ve read a lot of different posts about what the best way to do this is. Some say just copy and paste, some say you need to go into recovery mode and Format the SD to Fat32+ext2+swap first and then convert ext2 to ext3, and some say to use Titanium Backup, and there are other opinions too.
I’m really quite happy with the way the phone is set up at the moment and don’t want to mess things up. My X10 mini, has cyanogen mod 7, and clockwork mod. Some of the apps have been moved to the SD card.
Can anyone tell me the current best method?
Thank you ....
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm also very interested in how to do this.
Basically use whatever format worked for you with your previous SD card. Oh, another forum member from the x10 forums was told by a Sony Ericsson rep that SD cards above class 4 would not give any further speed boost, but that's for the X10. I think that the same should apply for the x10 mini. Higher classes makes for faster loading of media and games moved to SD card, but actual playing(i.e after it has fully loaded) will be no faster. It will make SWAP faster, though.
Did I answer your question? Please press the Thanks button!
I have tried a 32gb card but it dosn't recognise it
Anyone knows if the new Custom Roms / Kernel make the Mini Pro recognise a 32gb SD card?
Well I checked the original card that came with the phone and it was FAT. The new card was preformatted to FAT32.
I left the new card at FAT32 and plugged them both into a Windows PC and copied the whole lot over. This worked fine.
I suspect that the whole ext2 ext3 thing is to allow the phone to treat that partition as if it were internal memory. Useful if the phone memory is already full.

I recently upgraded my sd card from 2G to 4G, I just copied and pasted files. This seemed to work but since the upgrade I am having trouble flashing roms in cwm recovery. I get an error saying zip (bad) installation aborted.
Not sure if it is related but one to think about.
After a bad flash my Vibrant is not seeing my internal sd card.
Is there a way to reformat?
Settings -> SD card and phone storage -> under phone storage select Format SD card.
Before you do that I would try flashing the mounting fix that was posted a while back in clockwork though. That might help.

There is no amount option for the internal card.

The same thing...
Hitting Format SD card under the phone storage part of the screen will format the internal memory. If that doesnt work you should odin back to stock and reflash whatever ROM you want.
Formatting storage card does nothing.
Odin back to stock then reflash your ROM.

Already done that twice.
Hence my question.
Is there a way ie through adb to format the internal Sd/storage memory
This thread is relevant to my interests.
I have attempted to odin, and heimdall back to stock, but either the guide here on XDA is severely outdated, or something is wrong with my vibrant.m (followed steps to a T, but to no avail)
I am extremely technologically adept so anyone willing to talk me through this won't be assisting grandpa through a reformatting, and re-installation of the latest version of windoze operating system on their virus ridden store bought PC so to speak, but rather would be helping out a fellow modder restore his phone, and squeeze a few more months out of it before being forced to upgrade.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
//edit
obviously i can get into the bootloader, recovery, and download mode, but cannot load any rom because i get the error cannot write to lums message.
I too flashed probably once too many times, and something corrupted my internal SD card on my SGS Vibrant, and there's no way to reformat it that I know of.
Are you locked out of the internal SD ie the EU bug?
What ROM were you running when you tried Odin?
Does Odin recognize your device, do you have a lighted com port?
Which version of Odin did you try?
Which files did you plug in on Odin?
And have you tried the AIO toolbox?
No tickee, no laundry!
sorry I didn't see this reply earlier, but since my last posting I bit the bullet and upgraded to a Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
I would however like to see if I could still repair my vibrant for use as another android phone to play with. Odin, etc. all recognize and will flash my phone, but in cwm I can't flash any roms. I it says something about unable to write to lums?

Hello. I am running very low on RAM (internal memory) on my Original Droid RAZR. I am aware that there are root apps that use SD Card memory as RAM. Some apps are: "RAM Manager" and "Swapit RAMEXPANDER by ROEHSOFT". You can get them in the Play Store.
Video of one of the apps:
Will this actually work? Thanks.
wait...ram or internal memory?? ram can't be changed but you can increase your internal memory by swapping it with your sd card...in razr its easy to do so...you do need root though
you do that by changing the "sdcard-ext" to "sdcard" and sdcard to sdcard-ext"

Sorry, I am getting them confused. I meant to say Internal Memory. So I can just swap it with ALL of my SD Card space? Or can I choose how much? and with what app do I do this with? Thanks for reply.

He is trying to use some extra storage space on his sdcard as a sort of page file or swap file to give him more memory for the OS to run in I think. Who knows with people, myself included, interchanging the terms memory, RAM, and storage. I do it, but it is inadvertant.

Yes that is exactly what I want to do. Is it possible without root?
No its isn't!
After rooting you ccan make a 'partition' on your sd card that will be assigned to the phone memory. You can use link to sd for this and make partition through CWM...once you read about rooting youll get to know about CWM..so search around this forum..

Friend ensure that the drivers are installed correctly, if not successful, perform desinstação and restart your notebook and install the drivers again.

Hi,
Just this night I've been using my sdcard in a normal way, browsing internet, downloading files when suddenly my phone couldn't boot after flashing bootanimation (zip made by trusted developer so that's not the problem). Now when I connect my SD Card to the phone it will either say "preparing sdcard" forever or just simply freeze phone after few seconds. I tryed to connect it via working adapter with my PC to back it up... After copying few files sdcards unmounts from the reader... I've tryed on XP and it shows some command errors while trying to copy files in a regular way. I was ONCE able to flash few zips via recovery in order to make my phone boot up again it worked. Now I'm scanning my SD Card using Norton Internet security 2013 - Paid version - not cracked, and the sdcard seems to stay mounted to the PC. Unfortunately after trying to copy files from SD Card to PC it just freezes explorer.exe and unmounts itself...
Please help me, I really have some important pictures on this sd card
PS. 32 GB SanDisk Class 10 UHS-I (grey and red one)
PS. 2 I was using swap partition, maybe my sdcard went dead from constant reads and writes?
PS. 3 Using linux I managed to copy 81 MB... then any copying froze but ubuntu didn't... Damn, thats weird
It appears to randomly stop reading from SD Card as now it stopped at 153,1MB out of 422MB, all thumbnails of photos were shown properly though.
well first connect ur sdcard to an old mobile you have then connect mobile to computer
backup your data then use a partition tool to delete partition of sdcard then recreate it as FAT32 partition and try to put sdcard to your mobile again
if still, then wipe data/factory reseyt your rom
if doesn't work then let me know
Sent From My U8160 using xda-developers app
Well, connecting to an old mobile isnt an option as the SDCARD does the same thing even on xperia T which isnt that bad and that Xperia T never had this sdcard connected before.
I'd love to backup my data, but I can't
Full rom wipe and reflash fresh was done straight after getting problems with this sdcard.
Unfortunately it still doesn't work
I got the error I was talking about!

EDIT: I'm trying to recover photos and movies (most important files) via BadCopy Pro, any other recommendations if it wouldn't work?
EDIT2: It seems that when I'm slowly copying data (scanning sectors) sdcard doesn't seem to unmount or do other crazy stuff, any other suggestions so I'll keep file names and structure? I don't care much about copying time, I can run copying going all night.
I've recovered like 90% of data. Afterwards I've tried to perform Low Level Format... But this goddamn sdcard had to eject just at the start, therefore partitions got deleted, I'm trying to rebuild bootsector with testdisk but it takes ages, even after looking at tutorials online it takes so long to rebuild bootsector, no idea why...
I just realised that im one of the "lucky" guys which have got faulty sdcard. It happens to small amount (they say) of sandisk ultra 32&64GB owners...

then use the warranty to change your card, when you buy something, you're supposed to get it fully working
Yeah, Ive already written to sandisk but their 2 final and most important messages were one in german abd second in english. Im glad that i have a private teacher which helps me in german and is getting me ready for FCE exam so he can translate german to normal language
Another problem is that this card was a gift on my name day and im not sure when it has been bought although i know where. Thats my problem now but you definitely cant help me with it.
