[q] help please - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Help please i partioned my sd card and everything got deleted and when i try to boot my phone it stays at the htc logo because probably i dont have a rom how can i install one when i connect the phone to the pc it doesnt load it as a removable disk so i can place the rom!

In Clockwork Recovery you can mount the SD card to your PC from one of the menus... I think it's "mount & Partition" or something... It's the bottom entry on that list "Mount USB"

[Q] Help ,please.

First sorry for bad English.
Ok,what is the problem?
I have a Htc Desire
Today in status bar i see massage"Mounted sd card,read only..
I find some tutorial how to fix that,,,
-------------------------------------------------------------
Put the card in a different phone (no HTC, no PC ... EDIT : and no Mac) and format it.
Put it back in your Desire
Boot the phone
go to Settings -> SD & phone storage
Select "unmount SD card"
Now that the card is unmounted, select "Format SD card"
After telling the phone a few times that you really DO want to do that, it'll format and mount the card, and the ReadOnly status should be gone.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I do that but now when i turn on my desire i just see white screen and green htc logo.
i presume i delete all my backups.
What i to do now?Idea,please.
Thanx
Anyone?Ideas?

The only way to undo ir is ro repartition it. Im not aware of anything like Partition Magic for smartphones or SD cards.

Does your computer have a card reader or do you have access to a card reader to see if it can be done?

That is where I'm confused. Normally, when you partition a card, all of its contents are erased. My question to you is this: after you partitioned your card, were you able to access its contents? If so and if you have amon RA as your recovery, go into recovery, plug your EVO to your computer and then select the "MS-USB" option from within recovery. Your card should mount and be seen by your computer. You should be able to copy the contents of your card to your computer of all is well. If not, consider the contents erased and simply re-partition the card from within recovery or go to the wipe menu of the recovery and select "wipe SD card"

On my mac, when my phone is plugged in, it will recognize both partitions and format the whole card.
Also, you can go into recovery and partition the card again, but choose 0 for heap and 0 for partition. It will reformat with not partition.
You can repartition either using recovery and selecting 0 for the ext partition size, or use windows diskpart utility to delete/repartition. Under windows, you will need a third party utility to format the space as fat32 however.

[Q] SD card not working after rom manager backup

Hi guys, I am running CM7 on my EVO. Today I did a backup using Rom Manager and after the phone rebooted, the SD card stopped working. I cannot mount it. I tried connecting the SD card to my computer using a USB adapter and the card cannot be read. There are pictures on my card which I really need.
I'm pretty sure my card is messed up but if anyone has had a similar problem and found some fix, please let me know.
Thanks.
If you haven't already done so, boot into your recovery and attempt to mount the card via the MS-USB option.

I went into clockworkmod recovery and in the "Mounts and Storage option", I first tried "mount /sdcard". That failed to mount the sdcard. Then I plugged in my phone to the computer and tried to "mount USB storage". It says "Unable to write to ums lunfile (No such file or directory)"
Any chance you've got a card reader/ adapter? If not, you can buy one at radio shack for like $5
The card *may* very well be corrupted and if you've tried this them disregard. Sometimes, powering off your device and then removing and reinserting the SD card helps. Afterwards, connect your device to your computer and boot into recovery. Once again, try to mount the card from within recovery. If you're still unsuccessful and have a spare SD card, shutdown your device and swap cards. Download the PC36IMG.zip for amon RA v2.3 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026, place of on the root of your SD card and boot into the bootloader to flash it. Installation takes less than 10 seconds. Afterwards, shutdown your device, switch back to the corrupted SD card and then boot into your new recovery. With your device connected to your computer via USB, select the MS-USB option from within recovery and see if the card mounts properly.

[q] htc desire fully formatted accidentely

I have a problem and would a great help .. if possible ..
accidentally formatted the memory of my phone and the sd card .. hboot formatted by the boot, the system, and the data cache as well .. both the device as well as the sd card .. hboot by not recognizing the sd card and can not reinstall the rom you want .. how to resolve this issue? grateful to everyone who can help me.
can u get into recovery?
then u can mount usb and copy the rom onto your sd card.via windows and then flash it?
If you can get into hboot, means you can also get into fastboot (just hope you're s-off, but I think you are). You can flash recovery from there & then flash any other stuff you're missing.
Another option is to RUU it and root it again.
Desesperate
the hboot is not recognizing the sd card. is to remotely access the pc? grateful
use the ******* q&a section, damn it!!!

That doesn't really make sense!
press power + volume down at the same time from that menu select recovery by using volume buttons now press power button to get into recovery if you have that there should be option to mount sd-card. The same original menu has Fastboot option if selecting that gives you FASTBOOT USB you can flash hboots, radio etc.

wrong section: development is when u develop something
anyway, simple and fast solution for u: run an RUU
if ur phone is branded (btw never buy a branded phone ) u need a goldcard (search for it..not sure if u can still create it) or the right ruu from ur operator

Hey alex!
Ok bud, first, which version of recover are you running Clockwork or TWRP?
If you are running Clockwork im more familiar with it as i havent used TWRP too much yet, but if so, make sure that you go into "mounts and Storage" and make sure the one of your options says "unmount storage/sdcard1" if it says the word "Unmount" in front of the option that means that your external SD card is mounted and you have another problem, if it says "Mount" all you have to do is select it so it mounts your SD Card.
Also if that doesnt work, go into "Mounts and Storage" and select the second to last option that says "Mount USB Storage" and if you have your phone connected to your PC, you will be able to transfer the files from the External card to your internal memory on the phone and then you will be able to flash!
Good luck bud i hope this helps, if you have any other questions just ask and ill do my best to help you
