[Q] Desire won`t recognize sd card. Running out of options.

Hello all,
My desire wont recognize the sd card. In android self it shows please insert new sd card. I have done this but no succes. Factory reset was no succes.
I reflashed to stock rom didnt work.
the fastboot enableqxdm 0 doesnt work for me.
In recovery i get this message.
E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk1p1) No such file or directory. Error mounting /sdcard
Current situation is stock 2.2 Rom, rooted with Unrevoked.
Does anyone have an idea?
Greetings and thanks Tom

Did you format the SD card?

Yes i did with 2 different cards. A 4GB and a 1GB sdcard.

That should fix it mate
Just to make things clear. It's a usb brick. There is easy fix, but you have to install android sdk, and use adb command.
Once you have sdk installed, open cmd
type cd c:\program files\android\android-sdk\platform-tools
then
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
and then
fastboot oem eraseconfig

Thanks will post results shortly

Maybe this will help shed some light on the matter.

Have you tried running latest RUU for you phone?
Is your card now recognized?
P. S. You were in fastboot when running both commands? I mean fastboot mode on the device.

This is great!!! worked like a charm!!! Thank you so much!!!
i was actually losing my mind because I had the SD problem about a week ago, and only did the "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" part, the guide I read didn't have the eraseconfig part.
Since then, my USB was acting up reaaly bad, device not recognized, not even charging, device would notice it's connected HOURS after phisically connected etc.
I was worried I've killed the best phone I ever had =[
Again, thatnks a lot!! =]

Glad it worked for you can you post your specs so that i can compare? Thanks

Is your SD recognized by other devices ? (Computer or another phone)
Make sure that the partitions on your SD are primary not logical.

Basically u just have a USB brick

hey guys...
I got the unrevoked 3 and unrooted my HTC Desire... everything went ok... The problem came next... Now it does not read any micro sd card, like most ppl complained..
I've been searching and trying several things for the latest hours and got no luck...
Most ppl said it's an usb brick, still following instructions here and in modaco i cant fix it, cause i just cant copy any files to sdcard.
The sdcard is working fine cause it reads on computer. I already reformated it...
I tried using the fastboot commands but nothing worked...
I didnt thought about this before rooting, but i think the phone is locked to an operator.. Dont know if it mattered.. Still.. the root is working... had no problems.. Only it does not recognize any sd card.. in OS or in recovery.
Any lights out there of me???

I strongly recommend the repartitioning of the SD and reformatting. Do you guys have any other partitions besides the FAT32 ? Is FAT32 a primary partition or logical ?

i already reformarted it.. its fat32.. only some space is allocated cause i wanted to make other partitions, ext4, to put a new rom...
but i noticed now in windows that its a logical partition.. everytime i do it it makes it logical. also used minipartion tool to format it in fat32

Maybe that's the problem. Use the minipartition tool to partition and format.

finally got a new card to test here... strange thing.. that one it detects... its only in fat.. not fat32
another strange thing is that i cant set to primary... dont have that option in minipart tool enabled... really strange... but i can use the card in windows and it works good...
even when i format it on minipart tool it sets it as logical.. LOL..
damn

just tried to enter in recovery mode.. with the card with no partition.... tried to format it there.. still cant mount it.. lol

Remove the card and try to connect it to PC using the microSD card reader.

Don't worry too much! But yeah, take it out, connect it to your PC (through a card reader or whatever) and see if it recognises it. Hopefully this is the case.
If not, you might have to reformat it... but please don't do this just yet! Wait a few more posts and see if anyone else has a bit more experience on the matter

Sure ... Its only on the phone ...

The SD card can be seen when in a USB reader in the PC
I've followed your instructions below and they exectued OK, but I still can't see the SD Card.

Aha - sorted it myself!
I checked out another SD card and it worked fine. So I put my (broken) SD card into my old Hero and it was recognised OK... Strange I thought as I expected it not to work.
As it was visible from the Hero, I was then allowed by ROM Manager to Partition it. Can't remember exact values but it was approx 512 & 0.
Once this had been completed, and although it had problems mounting on reboot to perform the partition, it seemed to work.
After re-installing it in my Desire I was able to use the SD card both from the phone and recovery.
Thinking back, the problem arose when I flashed the EXT4 Align Flashable.zip as part of my planned move to InsertCoin CM7/A2SD+ STABLE. I'd flashed the EXT4 zip, but my SD card was not then visible to flash the ROM.
Perhaps someone more knowledgeable might correct me, but I think I should've partitioned my SD card prior to flashing, but there was little info on this procedure.
Anyway, hopefully my fix may help someone else out there and I'm now running my planned aforementioned ROM.
Cheers,
Rob.

(Q) Can't access SD card, No Rom, Have s-off , fastboot, Recovery

Hello I'm hoping someone here can help.
I partioned my sd card using CWM and then installed Leedroid rom. Upon booting I was unable to see the Sd card in phone I have since repartitoned using Gparted and tried 3 other cards and the phone still doesn't see any off them (so fairly certain not faulty sd card).
I have been been trying to sort this the last couple of days and have probably made matters worse rather than leaving it and getting my head together.
I Have since read about possibly usb bricking the phone if you partion using CWM and flash a GB rom.
I have changed the recovery via fastboot to Amon-Ra. But I also deleted the rom via fastboot thinking I could reflash in fastboot(lack of sleep)
The phone is still s-off .
I have accessed the phone and got the CID (VODA001).
What is my best option?
Just try and flash via RUU or try and fix via adb which I did get set up and saw the phone but have never used before?

It's a dead easy fix, no need to flash an ruu. Follow my instructions here :- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1176663 Incidentally, I suggest you read it all before you start and go the easier router of downloading Android Flasher, it's far far easier than downloading the whole SDK and whatnot.

Thanks Parva but I have already tried those commands via fastboot
"fastboot oem enableqxdm 0"
"fastboot oem eraseconfig" or something to that effect as it said that it could possibly fix the sd card problem. But its still there.
I already have the sdk installed but have never used it other than fast boot .
I have got to step 3 on this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691639 And got the files on the phone using android explorer.

That's the USB brick fix that you're doing. At this point your problem is getting the SD card to be recognised by the phone isn't it? No need to go down the USB brick fix route until you're certain you have one (which you probably don't), which you can't be until you get the SD card working.
Connect the phone to the PC, boot into fastboot (back button and power) then from the command prompt (from your Fastboot directory) type 'fastboot devices' and see if it responds. If it does then retry the "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" command. I've never known that not work.

Just booted into fastboot and entered "fastboot devices" It gave me address so its seeing the phone have also run "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" still not detecting sd card. I downloaded the android flasher utility you mentioned and tried running that.
It gives me the CID (which I had already got and generated a new image mtd0.img)
When i try and flash the mtd0.img the computer gives me an error saying cannot find path

You're putting the cart before the horse with the USB brick fix, you're fixing a problem that may not exist and it still won't fix your main issue which is that your phone will not read the SD card. When you ran the command line "fastboot oem enableqxdm 0" what response did you get? If it completed just fine then try another SD card.

yep it completed fine and have tried with other sd cards. Still no joy

That's not good. I don't know what to suggest at this stage. I do know however that you're wasting your time trying to flash the mtd0 image file, the two problems (unable to read SD and USB brick) are two seperate problems and you can't know whether you have a USB brick until you get the SD card to be read by the phone so don't waste more time on that.
Just have to hope that someone with more knowledge than me comes along because I'm stumped at this stage, sorry.

Just a quick update phone now fixed. I tried a 4th sd card from a friend which mounted after running the enableqxdm command via fastboot. Allowed me to format via amon recovery , transfer rom and flash in one go.
Guess I'm not buying anymore cheap unbranded SD cards from ebay again. Strange that all 3 I tried work fine in other devices.

Well the phone has now stopped seeing the sd card again. If I boot into recovery the card will not mount. I can connect via adb , fastboot, droid explorer (sd card is grayed out). Charges via usb and gives option to usb tether.. Really starting to think hardware fault.

Flashed stock RUU fault still there getting .Collected for repair tomorrow.

[Q] USB BRICK -fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 failed what can I do?

Hi,
Iam trying to un USB Brick my sisters phone. I s-off ed with Revolutionary, installed clockwork recovery, and unzipped Superuser. But now the SD card (I've tried 3) aren't recognised at all.
All the instructions for USB UNbricking start with the command ' 'fastboot oem enableqdm 0' from the cmd (I have the android-sdk-windows/tools folder in the C directory;and just in case downloaded Android SDK - but that doesn't seem to do anything, just hang in cmd window when I launch it).
The thing is when I ever I type 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' I get "FAILED status malformed (1 bytes))". I also tried another fastboot command 'fastboot reboot-bootloader' but again got "FAILED.. status malformed (1 bytes))"
I just can't find a solution to this anywhere - if there is one and you know that'd be great, or a link would be excellent.
I'm going crazy here - what can I do to get the fastboot command to work - and then recoginse an sd card. Any ideas? And, my sister is supposed to gettinga train this evening! Doh, why did I try and root her phone...
Help please!
Chees

10chars

Ah, getting there...
So, got the fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 command to work.
Said OKAY.
Tried the fastboot oem eraseconfig
Said OKAY.
Went into Recovery, tried to flash update.zip; no sd card! Ah damn. (file shows up when exploring sd card on laptop)
So,, thought I try the CID version and I get this info:
INFODevice CID is Super CID
INFOCID is Super CID
INFOBackup CID is ORANG001
INFOSetting->cid::ORANG001
So, now I am confused, what the hell is my CID now?
And can I use the CID Gernerator as in that post.
If it helps, I could see the SD Card fine until I partitioned it (with Easeus - then wiped - then tied again with Mini Tool - both times the parition worked, everthing worked fine when exploring with laptop, just the Desire seemed to throw it and alas, no more sd card recognised - have tried a couple of others too.) Blimey, I've rooted, flashed, etc so many times without a glitch, just didn't think this would happen. Sod;s law it happens to my sister's phone when Itrying to help (she has no tech knowledge!)
SO, again, any help would be great.
Cheers

Just remembered you can try something else..
Code:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig
(this has to enable SD.. if it doesn't then I dunno.. I mean 60% of the time it works every time)
Then flash RMD Recovery (link on my guide), and use the built in USB brick function.
If you're S-OFF flash the recovery.img via fastboot
If you're S-ON fakeflash the recovery.zip via recovery
Also in these situations, try to actually give us the errors recovery shows etc.

Alas, tried both of those commands and nothing happened (said OKAY both times, but when booted into Recovery it still did not recognise SD card, and when booted normally still no joy...)
What next, well I'll get a cheap 1Gb SD card straight out of the box and see if recognises it -not holding out much luck though. After that, try flashing the RMD Recovery via fastboot? and trying the USB Brick option (what do reckon?)
Oh well, we'll see. Would it help if I could flash a new ROM? Can this be done without an SD Card being recoginised? If so, which ROM, and how would I do it (from fastboot?) - had run Insert Coin 1.1.14 on another Desire (still running fine) - flash that even though Sd won' be paritioned, would ot work? Out there at the moment...

[Q] USB Brick and can't mount SD in clockworkmod

Hi everybody,
I've been looking on the forum for over a week, and I still haven't been able to resolve my problem.
I tried flashing my HTC Desire with a ROM (on Rom manager), but it didn't work (it always rebooted).
I stupidly deleted all the data on the phone, cache, dalvik cache, etc.... so no Rom is on my phone now.
I now think my phone is USB bricked (it has all the symptoms such as not being properly recognized on the computer).
I can turn on the phone, the buttons work, I can go into clockwork mod BUT I can't mount my SD card in clockwork (so I can't flash anything through that).
I would really appreciate and help you have to offer! Thanks!

I guess you just need to run two fastboot commands:
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0 (unblock your sd-card)
fastboot oem eraseconfig (fix misc partition)

I already looked at that page and tried what you said and it didn't work, I also tried flashing the PB99IMG.zip but that also didn't work.
I then needed to do the process on the bottom of the page, but it requires me to use a file explorer app, and I don't have any ROM installed

any ideas?

are you sure you ran the fastboot commands correctly?
1) Make sure you have fastboot set up, if you don't, unzip the attached file into c:\
2) turn on your phone in FASTBOOT (either hold BACK and POWER, or select FASTBOOT from the Hboot menu)
3) plug the phone in via usb
4) run cmd and type
Code:
cd\
fastboot oem enableqxdm 0
fastboot oem eraseconfig

Do you see your device in fastboot devices? If yes then follow bortak's guide. If not, you might have a problem
