[Q] SD card not mounting - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi..
Hopefully someone can help me..
I previously had ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1 installed and desided to change to Amon RA recovery 2.0.0, since I couldn't backup my ext4 partitions.
I've got RCMixHD 3.0b1 installed, but since I flashed another recovery it installed a new superuser - This superuser didn't work properly, as I had to "allow" all the time, everytime I needed root (try backing up with MyBackup Root eh'?).
Then someone told me to re-flash my current ROM without wipe, so I tried that..
But... I got an error after the ROM installed a bit and then tried wiping to restore my nandroid.
This unfortunately didn't work, as I got somekind of mount error.
Now, everytime I try wipe, install or anything from my SD Card in recovery I get the following error:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
(No such file or directory)
E:Can't mount /sdcard

I tried re-partitioning my card, which didn't work, now I don't know what to do, already been phone-less for a day now =/
I can't flash another recovery with unrEVOked, as I can't get past the damn "HTC"-screen.
EDIT: Using "Clear storage" in FASTBOOT just made it reboot all the time @ "HTC"
Any sugestions will do, please help.
- Neo3000x

try formatting / partitioning via nokia ( i did the same on my 5800xm running c6 firmware and it fixed the card ) hope it helps and hope you have access to a 5800 with c6 firmware

Post title edited to remove swearing. Please do not swear on the forums.
Thanks

Format it in Sd Crad reader

I already tried formatting it through gParted, RA Recovery and Windows, no luck yet..
When I boot into fastboot, I see that it's loading the .zips, but not in recovery

Okay...
Anything will do, currently I have a phone that does absolutely nothing, besides showing me the HTC logo..
Should I install a RUU and the root it afterwards?

What happens when you connect your phone to the computer? It actually sounds like a USB brick!

Without pressing the button it boots over and over, trying to install Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM driver.

Tried to do the unbrick of USB and got "Device not found" in adb all the time..
Did I do something wrong? Installed the usb-driver from unrEVOked to connect.

I think you can fix it by yourself, following these totos.

I can still get into recovery yes, but I really can't do that much in there, as it won't mount the damn SD card.

See Sh.t, I Misunderstood you I Thought you were able to Flash Zips, But they Weren't Fully Installing Because of the Mount Problem... You Don't happen to have a Micro Sdcard Adapter do you? On the Adapter there's a LITTLE WHITE SWITCH to the Left of the M in the word Micro... that Switch was Responsible for me Getting the Same Reading... the Dev/Block/Whatever Else? Can't Remember, but all I did was take the Sdcard out of my phone and flick that Stupid Little Switch the Opposite way and All of a Sudden I was Back in Business!

I you can still get into recovery, you can also still get into bootloader and fastboot:
power off, then power on while holding 'back' button => You should get into bootloader
When in bootloader, you choose 'fastboot' => first choice in the list of four
You then connect you USB cable => You should see a message like 'fastboot usb' in red.
On you PC, open a terminal window and go to your fastboot directory (directory where you should have installed the Google SDK)
Then, you type the following command in your terminal window:
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
This should reenable your SD card.
At that stage, you are back with a working phone, but the USB is not yet working properly. You'll have to reflash your 'misc' partition with a correct mtd0.img.
The tutos I showed you in a previous reply explains the procedure to follow.
hope this will help.

Got a locations.apk fc when it booted, but still..
So, you're saying that I still need to do something to be completely unbricked?

Ya ... Your phone is working, but, when you plug your USB cable, your PC does not detect it, is'it ?
All depends now on the following points :
Is your phone s-off or not ? Is your current ROM rooted or not ?

[Q] I need help, am going in circles with all the pages on xda-ddev and other sites

Right, basically I think I have pretty much messed up my phone, yeah yeah I know what your all thinking, seen this before.. you most likely have, I have read all the pages and tried to search for people with similar problems to me to save asking the same thing again, however I keep finding answer's that take me back to another problem on my phone.
anyway long story short, my phone wont get past bootloader. i can still get to recovery, but that does not help much as i get about 1 minute before it restarts if i plug it into my pc when in this mode, unless i format the system.
Phone spec:
Bravo PT3 SHIP S-On
Hboot-0.93.0001
Microp-051d
Touch Panel-Synt0101
Radio-5.17.05.08

Running ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.0.1
am able to format Boot, System, Data and Cache.
However when i try format SDcard i get the message
"E: Can't Mount /dev/block/mmcblk (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)
(no such file or directory)
Error Mounting / SDcard/! "
I thought maybe trying to re-root my desire using unrevoked, if that would have been an option, with the latest Clockwork recovery, but it will not find my phone in fastboot. However after a few attempts of plugging in my phone ,AMDesire Recovery finds my phone and can get it to wipe the dalvic cache, sd:ext partition, create a partition, try to wipe sd:ext partition and it says "error : run 'wipe ext' via adb.
I thought at looking at the DeBricking page on here, but that seems a lot of code, and when trying to find the right downloads i to even enter all that code i have got myself a bit lost.
any help whatssoever, would be greatful,
also i apologise for this if it is in the wrong forum but as i am pretty much a new user, i am unable to post in many places.

Like what the other replies said, this is, most likely, a USB brick.
Try this command in fastboot mode: "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
Search in the forums to set up ADB/fastboot properly in your PC.

In order to install Android SDK you need JRE. You do not have to install all the software available in SDK you have only to download the tools.

This reads to me like you have a corrupt Ext...did you attempt to flash any alignment.zip before this happened?? Every time I try to flash an alignment, I also get this error message...hence I don't bother anymore...
My suggestion is to remove your SD and place in a card reader, then format your Ext using GParted. When you boot to recovery again, all should be sweet.
Just a thought.
dont use any EXT partition at this stage.. format ur sd card with single FAT32 partition and then try
Thanks to all of you trying to help me, I think i may need to mention that my phone does not seem to be able to read any sd card, not just the one i was using, tried my 16 gb, 8 gb, and 4gb. same message comes up.
going to try gparted later, and also have another go at creating gold card (what driver should be on set for this to work, Androidbootloader or MY HTC ? )
hopefully by the end of tonight i will have a working phone .
Once again thanks for everybody's help, I will click all the Thanks bit later

this is an usb brick, you should install android sdk, go into cmd
1. type in cd C:/android-sdk-windows/tools atleast if you have it there
go into hboot, press fastboot and connect your phone to your pc, it should say fastboot usb. then enter fastboot enable etc..(this enables the sd card read ability) after that go to the link i gave you, flash the update.zip and ur usb brick is gone,
easy as that
this sounds too simple and i still am having problems, do i not need a gold card?
Command prompt and typing in the commands you say, i continue to get an error message saying deice not found, seriously, i bet i am doing one thing wrong.. that's too simple to notice?!?!
i've never heard that you need a goldcard for a usb brick, it may sound dumb but have you installed htc sync? if so uninstall it and i you haven't install and uninstall for the drivers, usually a usb brick is solved in 4-5min, so maybe you missed out something, because when i had my first usb-brick i entered adb shell-.- you just have to type the command in once
just tried same on my notebook, no htc sync installed , Still Says error : device not found. am guessing i am pretty much screwed.
not got my hopes up too high just yet, but i think it's actually looking up a bit now, conected to phone, typed in the commands given, it can read sd card, installed update.zip. now i dunno if i should go back to backup, or try install everything again,
Thanks so much guys

I always run the fastboot oem enable one to fix sdcard reading, then flash the update.zip to fix usb connection.
Does this mean theres no need to flash update.zip if I run 'fastboot oem erase config'?

Confused!

Just tried to flash a rom in recovery, but my SD Card now won't mount!!!!!!! I wiped everything needed, except SD Card, but it won't mount. I mount the card via usb, all the files are present, but why won't it read? Can someone please help on what can be done so I don't have to go back to my "Wack"Berry!?
Also, it reads the PCIMG file in HBoot, updates just fine. So why not read my card in recovery? I'm using Amon.

You can do that, or the weaker of the 2 options which can work, if you can still see the PC36IMG in the bootloader, re-install your recovery via PC36IMG.

Thanx for the replies...... Still having issues.
1. I don't have a ADB option in my fastboot menu as explained in the guide. So I don't know how to run the command.
2. I re-installed the PC36IMG, still won't read my card in recovery!!!! I even tried to update to a different recovery thinking maybe it fails to work for my phone, still no luck.
Does anyone have any other suggestions?

1. You want the FASTBOOT option, so that the device says "FASTBOOT USB" when connected to the computer. Then you can run the fastboot commands (which is what the thread should say, rather than and commands).

Ouya Bricked ?

Hello !
Here's my prob :
I installed CWM Recovery on my OUYA, and then i wanted to flash a ROM via recovery.
Unfortunately, i've done a full wipe while in recovery, and restarted the console.
Now it's turning on, with the power button on, black screen, and identifyed as an MTP USB device.
I tried the alt + Sysreq + i trick, but it doen't seems to work here ...
Any chance to get it back to life in other way ?
Keep trying alt + sysreq + i trick my takes about 50 times before the light on the ouya flashes then i have to hit the home key some times to see anything

Try these timings. I had the same issue and these worked for me. The keyboard trick is currently your only hope.
I keep pressing alt + sysreq + i keys at the same time takes me about 30 times to get to recovery the light will flash one time then i know im in recovery some times iget the ouya smile with a ! mark some time a black screen then i press home button to get to recovery push the home button again it goes away i have done about three ouya.
Problem solved.
My ouya doesn't loved my Microsoft Keyboard...
I used a generic on, and it works directly
Ouya saved
Another advice : if it doesn't work, try another keyboard !
Ouya Bricked Need Help Reward For The Fixer
Here is my Issue I installed The CWM and flashed over a few ROMS but really wanted to try out the CM10. I had all my files backed up but some how they were all deleted and when I turn on my machine I get the Cyanogen boot loop and I can do the keyboard trick print screen/ Alt / I but there is no files to recover and I have no way to load any ROM directly to my internal nand flash unless there is something I am missing.
I am so upset I with thy would have put a sd card slot on this thing. Can anyone help me to try to recover putting any stock ROM back on my machine or is there a way to get my PC to read my device to load the ROM to my internal HD?
Please any help and instructions would be greatly appreciated.
I need some serious help here. Thanks to anyone who can get me back up and running again I will even send the person who has the solution one of my devices that run XBMC like a champ. Here is my site for anyone who is up for the challenge. www.xbmcandroidtv.com the EXOON Q2 Plus is the device I will send to the person who solves my dilemma.
I have tried the keyboard trick but all I get it to do is load into CWM and there is nothing to load. Am I doing something wrong?

You have to fastboot the "boot.img" supplied with CM10. I had the same issue so pm me if you need help.:good:
Never, ever ever ever ever ever wipe the boot.img, if you want to be safe, never replace it either, you can always 'fastboot boot boot.img" it.

You can do it from CWM, but you don't have to be there. Depends on what you've done to your system. If you flashed CM10 and now it's detected as an MTP device your best bet is to reboot into recovery and 'adb reboot bootloader' then use fastboot commands. That's what worked for me.

Ah, stock recovery.... You could go into Apply Update From ADB. Then type "adb reboot bootloader" then you can type "fastboot boot boot.img" to boot successfully into CM10.
You can put the boot.img for CM10 in the same folder as fastboot.exe to make things easier.

Then i open adb on my pc, check to make sure it finds the Ouya and then i try to adb reboot bootloader. and that error comes up. if i try to load an .img file from the same place it just says <waiting for device> and doesn't ever move.

If it says <waiting for device> then its probably a driver issue with fastboot. When you reboot into the bootloader go into device manager and check the driver again. I also had this issue.

[Q] Not really bricked but bricked for the time being

Hello. I currently have 2 S4 minis (I19195). One works perfectly and is mine. I also have only one SD card. I was in the process of installing CM on the new one and I wiped the SD card by accident (it contained the CM installation and gapps package).
The SD card refuses to work with either device now and I don't have a card reader.
The device currently has no OS on it. It's got CWM working, though. I need to get it running ASAP.
Is there a way to a) fix the card or b)get the CM files on it somehow or c)install CM solely through odin?
EDIT: I should also mention it refuses to mount USB storage through CWM.
In CWM you should be able to use adb. Try using adb push to upload files from your computer to the internal sd

Thanks a lot for your reply, however I can't seem to find the option for adb in CWM.

You can either adb push a rom.zip to your internal sdcard. Or side load the zip

The problem is I have no way to access the internal sd card (other than odin, unless that's what you meant).
Also I tried flashing stock back onto it, which failed, and now I get a screen saying "Firmware upgrade enctountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I also seem not to be able to enter into recovery anymore, just download mode.

Boot into recovery and then from a cmd prompt on your pc type adb devices. It should show your device. If it does then, adb push rom.zip /sdcard. Where rom.zip is a rom you have on your pc and can push it to your device

Unfortunately I can't boot into recovery anymore. Just download mode and the stupid broken screen.

I don't know your device well. Can you download the firmware from sammobile and flash that in Odin?

Yep that's exactly what I did.
Anyway, I was just about to post everything I ever did to the phone to clarify. However I figured I should flash CWM once again and maybe get that to work.
After doing that and rebooting the phone EVERYTHING works, it booted straight into the OS and I just finished installing CM which works now. I'm not even going to pretend I understand what happened (and I have a degree in computer science...). Anyway, I'm very happy it works, and thank you both so much for helping me out!
