Hi,
After turning off the phone and replacing the battery yesterday, the SD card is no more recognized and appears as "broken"... When clicking on the notifications, sytem asks to format it.
Works well plugged in my PC with usb adapter and even in recovery.
Has someone already experienced this or knows what I should do...
Would formatting keep the ext3 ?
Using DeFroST 2.5a atm.
Thank you.

mount it in recovery to a computer then run chkdsk on it (check disk)
In Windows
My computer > Right click your sd card > properties > tools > check disk
Everything seems to be fixed, thank you
Hai,
Up until recently my Evo 4G connected to my computer with a USB data cable fine to both of my Win 7 x64 computers. Not to long ago I flashed a rom of MIUI (can't remember which), and my data cable stopped working. Sense then I have bought a new cord, flashed new roms, installed drivers (I didn't see x64 ones), uninstalled/reinstalled HTC Synch. Nothing works.
When I plug in the phone Windows makes the usb connect "ding" noise, then a pop up says the usb device could not be identified. If I wiggle the cord Windows makes the ding noise making me think the phone is only partially connecting? When I connect it nothing pops up on the phone itself. The charge light only comes on.
What should I do?
Hey,
Try booting into the bootloader and mount usb or toggle usb depending on your recovery and that should fix the problem if not, it might be an issue with MIUI! It has been giving me trouble when I tried to flash it so I couldnt use it, but many times between roms and kernals sometimes you will loose usb and it isnt the cable! try flashing a new rom and let me know how it goes!
stevo!
Hit the thanks if I helped!
I went into recovery and mounted usb, and sd card and the windows pop up came up. It said the usb device has malfunctioned, and windows could not recognize it. Same thing when I reboot. Seems to connect/disconnect when i move the cord with that pop up anytime it does connect.
I've flashed CM7 nightly sense then and now I am on [10-11-11][ROM] gingerbread-evo-deck [1.3][2.3.7 Stable] #Stablistic. I did notice when I click the pop up in windows it takes me to the info page for the unidentified usb and it says there is no driver installed for it.
Alright, I have two guesses.
I am glad you were able to mount it, and as long as it is reading i really dont think its the cord.
Now did you partition your sd card? because if you did you turned it to a linux file and your windows pc cannot read that
can you reformat your sd card and try it again?
If you keep having issues pm me.
I have had problems with that on my wifes lg optimus so what i did i took out the SD card and downloaded Mini tool partition wizard home edition 7 i used this to reparation the sd card and then reinserted the sd card and it worked after that. note i did put a ext 3 partition on the sd card. also if you have two primary partitions on the card widows will only recogize the first one. not sure if that is the issue in this case but i hope this helps
here is the partition wizard download

Hmm..
BTW, have try you shut down the phone after format the SD ?
And do check again..
If the bad disk occur, in Win7 it will automatically recommend to do scan disk to fix it. If is not your SD is fine actually..

ive tried to check in another computer and the pc search for drivers and install it, and it works just like the normal, it detects both internal/external, but my pc still cant detect it, ive uninstalled the MiniTool Partition Wizard and samsung drivers on my pc, and then i plugged in my phone, my pc installed the drivers, but it still cannot detect the internal sd, maybe the MiniTool Partition Wizard have some remnants after ive uninstalled it, but im happy to know that there is nothing wrong with my sd (1.7gb), but i cant reformat my pc, because its owned by the company where i worked, i just hope that it can be fixed

I don't think recovery from CWM can help this as it just restores "files" from nandroid where partition is another independent thingy. U did partition the sd card. So re-partitioning should be the solution to it.

LOL~ That's the problem with the drivers in ur PC. Try to uninstall the driver and install again. There is still some weird problems with windows drivers installation especially USB.

ive already tried to uninstall the samsung drivers, and connect my phone to the pc, it installs the drivers but it still cant detect the internal sd, is there any other method aside from formatting my pc?

Oh~ meaning that ur PC can detect external sd via USB cable? Maybe u can try Dual Mount SD. I am using it to connect both internal and external sd to PC in one shot. PC and ur device are enable to read sd cards simultaneously.

yes, my pc can detect my external sd, i tick usb debugging and when i connect my CP to the PC there is a notification in my CP and ill just have to click it to connect, normally it would detect both my internal and external sd, but after using the minitool partition wizard to make partition to my 1.7gb sd, my pc can no longer detect my 1.7gb sd (external because its swapped), and ive tried something, ive update my kies, and connect my phone with usb debugging untick, it detects my phone (GT-i8150 in my computer) with internal and external sd card. but still when im connecting with usb debugging on, only 1 sd card is detected, i guess my pc detects it as bad disk because of the mini tool partition wizard, but i dont know how to revert it, ive already uninstall the mini tool... but it doesnt help

Wow~ fortunately. glad to hear that.
im facing same problem
I read abt it that bootIt cn be work in this situation, bt dont knw how to use it..
i usually used minitool pw to manage sd card, nothing's wrong. It seems you need use minitool power data recovery to recover the data on your bad disk.
same

i got the bad disk error too messing with M.T.Partition Wizard and link2sd, but neither M.T.P.W. or the prompt commands to format the sd from pc worked so far..
The pc sees the sd for 1-2 seconds and ask to format it, then it s not accessible any more, and the formatting attempts (both from the pop-up message and prompt) results in a "cyclic redundancy check error" and fail..
i dont mind losing the data, i just want to keep using that sd
explained here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72729502&postcount=38933
so, did u fix it anyway/found a guide to use bootit ?
thanks a lot
