Sd card problems when downloading - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, my sister has a G2 and sometimes when she tries to download something from the market or whatever she has to unmount the card. It says error 18. Does anyone know what's up with this? Any help would be great. Her G2 is stock also.

SD Card problem with all EVO Roms Help!!

SO I am having a problem with every EVO rom I flash. Here is what is happening.
- I will open Astro or EStrongs and click on the SD Card where I have my APP Apks stored and click on the folder and it will just close the program. So then I will reboot and try to install them again and it will install maybe 3 apps before it starts saying "App not Installed".
- I am also having the "File Permissions" problem on OMJ latest EVO Rom when I try and use the Camera.
I have the latest Sprint Software installed and everything else. Can anyone help me out and tell me whatr the problem can be? I thought this problem was fixed?
It might be a bad sd card
I had similar issues with the sd card that came with my phone. It would work for a little while and then all of a sudden I would get file permission errors. Sometimes it would even come up saying the data was corrupt and needed to be formatted. I tried formatting several times both in the phone and in the computer.
Nothing seemed to help the issue. I then went to the store and purchased a new 16GB SD card and have not had a problem since. On another note, I have since left the 8gb card in my computer and have not had any problems with it there.
Yeah, It was working working fine the all of a sudden it started having issues.

Cant access SD card on G1 anymore - please help.

Hi everyone, looking for a little guidance.
Phone: Android G1 (Rogers Canada Dream) running Cyanogen 4.2.15.1, been running fine since 4.2.6.1
Removed SD card while it was on and it rebooted... when it restarted it showed no applications and said the SD card was inaccessible and required a format. After rebooting a few times with no success I bit the bullet and formatted it... all apps are gone except for the ones that are on that image for Cyanogen. I have no market app to download new apps and when I plug it into my PC and mount it I don't see it show up as a drive like it did so I have no way to get the apps back on.
Has anyone had this happen before? Phone still works but I need to get it back to a state where I can get access to the SD and install the market... Any suggestions appreciated!!
Might have corrupted the SD card. If u did then u will have to get a new one and start all over. Do u have a file manager that can show what's on your SD?

Thats the problem, I have no file manager on the phone now, I see the SD card is fine, I can take pics and videos and store them on it and view then now... I assume when I removed the SD card because it was mounted might have corrupted it. So now I cant put anything on it, access it or even go to the market to get a file manager...
U can't even save what's on your SD to your computer either I assume. You might be stuck with getting a new one and see what happens. Would be a good time to make the jump to 5.0.8 or even froyo. (Only good way to look at it). hope u get it fixed.

Just curious...you do know that accepting the update will cause you to lose your root, right?
I'm not trying to accept the OTA. I'm trying to download one of one's on here. That's when it keeps happening. Any ideas?
I swapped out the SD card and it works now..
If you hook up to computer and mount sd card as disk, go to properties, tools, error checking... Check first box that says fix errors or something and run it, should take less than a minute, that should fix it
Thank you

[Q] Desire Z doesn't read sd card

Hi guys
I have Htc Desire Z was running on Cyanogen 6.1.1, I just got into Rom Manager download a another Cyanogen 6.1.1 and flash on top of it.
Now my phone doesn't read or mount ay sd card( I have try 2 different one).

Connect to pc just USB debugging only nothing else.
I have try format and partitioning the sd card.
So now I am stuck with that I can't flash another rom and run any app that acquire sd card.
Any one help pls.
That sucks. Maybe a bad flash right off top. Possibly try and reflash if all else fails. Goodluck, I've been using my Droid x lately which is a whole different animal as u know. On my incredible the only time it wouldn't read SD was with a bad flash. Post up if u get it fixed I would be interested to hear how this one turns out. Goodluck

try formatting on the PC and see if it works
I remember when using Windows Mobile, it was always recommended to remove the SD Card and SIM before flashing a new ROM. Not sure why and I haven't read anything along those lines for Android, but just an FYI. I would try re-flashing and go from there.
I couldn't flash or do anything without sd card.
It is totally suck man.
Can anyone know how to flash a rom with adb?

[Q] Certain apps force close when reading from sd card

I recently flashed the bonsai4all 3.0 EB13 rom from the stock DI18, and from the getgo I noticed issues with the camera.
More specifically, any time I loaded the camera application, it would proceed to "unexpectedly" force close on me and simply exit to the launcher again. I thought this may have been a problem with just the camera, however winamp proceeded to crash whenever reading my music from the sd card as well.
Thinking it may have been a problem with the rom installation, I cleared all data/cache, and proceeded to reflash the bonsai rom. The camera+winamp actually worked for a short time before relapsing into the behavior above.
I know this is SD card related because whenever I dismount/remove the sd card everything works fine, however as soon as the card becomes available the apps crash whenever accessing.
Has anyone else had this issue? Any help will be most appreciated!
UPDATE: Just attempted ROM Manager's "Fix Permissions" batch, no impact. Going to try a reformat next.
Backup and reformat SD card. Probably got corrupted. Let us know if it works for u.
