Hello i just rooted my phone and i installed cm 7.0.3 stable but micro sd its destroyed and it cannot be formated.
The same sd its working in official 2.2.1 rom.
Can someone help me plz?
Try formatting your SDCard on a PC. I remember getting SDCard errors a while back, (Camera wouldn't work, there were random notifications about damaged SDCard etc) and formatting solved it.
Only its working when i am formating it with clockworkmod not pc,but i have issues with usb transfer.
Sorry, I cant seem to get what your issue is, your 2 posts have conflicting issues. In your 1st post, you say you are unable to use your SD, in your 2nd, you say it works but you are only having issues with USB transfer.
So, now the situation is that you have formatted the SDCard using Clockworkmod, and now its working find on your Wildfire, but, not when you connect it to the PC. Is that right? In that case, have you flashed any kernel after flashing CM?
Ok i fixed it now i just formated it with clockworkmod 4.0.0.5 and reflashed cm7.
It works perfect now thanks for the help anyway

First: Yes I've looked at other threads my problem is slightly different and, yes it is my fault for trying stuff beyond my level of skill but I know XDA members are helpful so I'm trying my luck.
Problem: I rooted the device (HTC Desire) and was running LeeDrOiD V2.2 until I came across the new senseHD ROMs for the HTC Desire and this is where the problems started. In short, I tried to upgrade to the SenseHD ROM and in the process wiped my SD and phone memory. the device can still boot into recovery but it gets the following message when trying to access the SD;
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1)
(Invalid argument)
E:Can't mount /sdcard
The card is 2GB and reads fine on my windows machine. I've tried formatting and placing ETX3 and ETX2 partitions, I've also tried just copying all the old data that was on the SD before I started playing but the device just hangs with a black screen reading "android". The trouble is that all the solutions I have come across for similar problems are solved from "inside" the ROM either through ROM manager or by changing settings. Obviously these are not options for me.
I would like to install the senseHD ROM (RCMixHD v0.11) (or anything at this point) so please could you help to fix this and have a working phone again.
please please please help out if you can, I'll be eternally grateful for any advice.
many thanks in advance!
SOLUTION
I managed to fix it in the end. I got a hold of another SD card from a friend, put a ROM on it and booted up the phone. Made sure the phone could boot up without the borrowed SD card. Then I took the original SD card and deleted all the partitions (DID NOT FORMAT) in windows using (MiniTool Partition Wizard) placed it back in the phone and booted up using the ROM that had just been installed.
In the phone settings go to Phone and SD storage, mount the SD card (don know why it manages to mount here) and then format it.
Now the SD card is fixed!
You could try repartitioning the sdcard from recovery.
good luck.
I had the same problem. I needed to update my version of Clockwork Recovery. I used the ROM Manager to install the latest version. Now its working for me.

I'm also in the same boat and the fastboot command to re-enable the SD card didn't work for me.
Recently I flashed the latest LeeDroid rom to my HTC Desire... All was working fine until the intro screen began to loop, following the thread I applied the patch to correct the problem. However now due to the many complications with Leedroid I wanted to restore my backup! But i cant as now my phone will not detect my SD card, however my PC will?
Any suggestions? Im desperate here!
Thanks guys!

It probably doesn't detect your SD card, as Leedroid, if I understand, requires specific partitions on the SD card, which I might guess you don't have. Or, you jimmied your sd card partitions, which is why you can't use it.
I would copy the sd card to the pc, partition your sd card as leedroid recommends, then copy your info back.
Now I'm not moaning about CyanogenMod here, I'm just trying to understand how I can fix the issue.
Basically, I had CyanogenMod 7 RC2 on my Desire Z. That was it.
Eventually I saw through ROM Manager that the full release of 7 was out so I downloaded, took a backup, wiped everything and did a fresh install of the new ROM.
It installed fine, but none of my apps that needed root access were getting it.
So I booted into recovery, restored my backup, root was back.
I then installed 7.0 over my RC2. That worked fine, but again root was gone.
At this point, my phone started damaging SD cards.
It suddenly started saying that my 8GB card that came with the phone was damaged. I tried to fix it on the phone, but it just said 'Checking card' and then giving up.
Putting it in an old MP3 player, it is not detected at all.
Putting it in a card reader, the card is unreadable and when I try to format it Windows says the card is 'read only' (this is not due to the reader).
I put a functional 2gb card I had lying around into my Desire Z and it broke it in the exact same way.
My question to you guys is - what could be causing this and how do I fix it because I have a 16gb card coming and I'm obviously cautious of putting it in the phone.
Also, how would I go about flashing the new Cyanogenmod 7.02 ROM if my phone keeps breaking SD cards I put into it?
This error can be because when ever you install a CyanogenMod ROM over another, It leaves files your new ROM think is useful such as data that the new ROM doesn't support. It is damaging your SD Card because it keeps attempting to fix the error but is making it worst by trying to remove system files. Your best bet is to try another ROM and see if it does the same thing and report it to CyanogenMod Developer Team if it only does this to CyanogenMod ROMs otherwise it would be just a virus on your SD Card feeding off of personal data. If it is only CyanogenMod ROMs, we will adress this issue ASAP. Hope I helped
Thank you VS4, you are indeed helpful
I've since heard some people have managed to fix their SD cards by formatting them in ClockworkMod but I can't even mount it first in order to do this! Is my card truly dead?
Also, do you think the reason that CM7.0 had no root (even when it was a clean install) was due to me not 'fixing permissions'?
Thanks
Just a note to say that I've managed to fix it!
Despite being unable to 'mount sdcard' in clockworkmod, I found I was able to activate USB Storage and through this I was able to format the card (Windows 7 was previously saying that the same card was 'read only' in a multitude of card readers).
I hope this helps any poor chap with the same problem.
I had this exact same problem, munched 2 of my 8GB cards, and had a 16 on the way. I somehow fixed it before the 16 came and I've never had the issue since, glad to see an explanation of it.
Thanks, nofixio!
I had the same problem on my Samsung Fascinate with CM7. It ate my 16GB SD card to the point where the phone wouldn't recognize it, CWM wouldn't mount it, and it wouldn't show up on my computer in multiple SD readers.
I wasn't quite clear what you were suggesting when you said you were able to "activate USB Storage." I thought maybe you meant within CWM. That didn't work for me, but I was able to boot the phone up with the problem SD card in it and turn on USB storage as normal. Suddenly my computer could not only see the SD card, it could see all the files that were on it before it died! I backed everything up, formatted the card in Windows, and everything's good now. Thanks for the tip!

I'm not sure why you would ask this in such an old thread but... Try just plugging it in to your computer maybe? What ROM are you on?

im running cm7 ... it wont read from computer. i tried several micro sd card readers. it just tells me it cant format. its just like what was mentioned before.
Weird, I've never had any problems with Cyanogen 7 roms. I've flashed one over another and had no issues at all, Mayb because I use SuperWipe before hand? Or maybe its a certain sd card issue???
Running Desire Z and Andromadus Beta 11 I had similar problem after I had applied remote wipe from Exchange (wanted to see if it works). Remote wipe worked: it destroyed contents of SD card and erased phone back to factory settings. After wipe mounting SD card failed and Andromadus seemed to be unable to format the card.
Solution: Booted phone to Clockwork recovery and applied advanced -> Partition SD Card.
Posted this on this thread since it came first when searching solution.

Go into Recovery (Clockwork), go to mounts and storage, then scroll down and it should say mount USB storage.
Hi all
I have a problem with my sdcard..
I cannot mount in on my desire.. I just get a notification saying that it is safe to remove it.
I cannot remount it, nor can the PC recognize the card.
I tried the following..:
reflashing phone with leedroid 2.4.0..no difference
flashed with clockworkmod7.0 .. this gave me some access to the card, but the phone couldn't recognize any files in recovery
finally fixed the issue on CWM by doing an sdformat with a program on the pc (mounted sdcard in adapter)
flashed back to leedroid, same issue.
I did a full wipe of everything I could find in recovery.
I had this problem once before.. but I cannot remember how I fixed it )
I've tried some different solutions found on google. but so far.. nothing...
hope someone can help!
Format sdcard in recovery
Hello everybody,
I bought the above micro sd card but the problem is when installed it i realised that the phone dont seem to be able to able to mount it...
what should i do ?
Is it formatted to Fat32?
The more important question is what message it shows when tried mount it.
I have had the same isue, only way for me was to use a RUU file
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda premium
You can also try formatting it with Android.
it says something like unable to write ums lunfile

I googled and found this on a other forum:
Code:
I get error mounting sdcard (no such file or directory) and unable to write to ums lunfile (no such file or directory)
Edit: I Solved the problem by rebooting into recovery using rom manager. Thanks.
It's interesting how can be people independent and resourceful if the really want to. Then why we have so many question threads are beyond my comprehension.

Of course i googled before asking this question..
The problem is... I boot into recovery but i cant mount my SD. I used other phones and the card is recognised normally
An alcatel one touch 908 and my previous HTC touch HD.
I'm running Leedroid 3.3.3 Data++ version which means i cant boot without an sd card becouse many things run from the sd-ext partition and of course since i cant mount the SD i cannot even flash again Leedroid or any other Rom.. so i cant simply reboot into recovery using Rom Manager.
But since u told me all this i'm going to simply install a clean CM7 nightly and try to reboot into recovery via rom manager..
USB brick. Search for solution.
My usb working flawlessly. Everything happening had to do only with this specific card
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
As far as I know unable to mount sdcard is part of USB brick.
i can mount any other sd card but this specific one.... and i try to find what's wrong here..
Fire up Android and format SD card with it.

Where the hell did you get that information? The fact that an SD card cannot be mounted is not in the least related to a USB brick, they are two totally seperate issues. You may find that on restoring SD card functionality that you then have a USB brick but it's not necessarily so and it cannot be ascertained without first fixing the SD card issue (and by the symptoms as described I highly doubt he has a USB brick).
To the OP, I would suggest that you copy everything from the SD card to your PC via an SD card reader. You can then either format it via G-Parted (Linux bootable disk) or via MiniDisk Partition Wizard. Copy everything back plus the rom of your choice.
You'll then need to flash the rom (assuming that your phone now 'sees' the SD card). You're going to lose everything that you installed, there's no way around this. The copy back and forth is to restore your music / photos and if you're lucky one or two of your apps may find an existing file of history to restore.
Please also report any messages the phone gives regarding the SD card and also try another SD card (if you have one) before you go the above route.
wierd things happening....
When i boot into recovery with power+vol down i cant mount my sd but if i do it through rom manager it works flawlessly... anyway i kept it this way. I installed a clean CM7 build formated my card and then all the things i do i do them via Rom manager...

what are the recoveries u talking about?
when u go in recovery with power+vol down u access the permanent recovery (what version?); while using rom manager u access another recovery version probably (as rom manager use fake flash, even if the latest version should use permanent flash)
sorry for being late answering..
both recoveries are 5.0.2.0
