Hy all,
First, excuse my english, I'm french.
This morning I was on call and suddently, it stopped and my phone freezes. I had to remove the battery.
But know, I'm unable to boot again.
Since I decided to remove the bootlogo, I don't know if it's right after the HTC screen or while booting (I knew it was a bad idea...)
Finally, after some tries, I've been able to access hboot and recovery. But recovery took 46 secs to boot and said "Unable to mount SD card" or something like that. I tried on my computer and the SD card can be accessed.
So, I would like to know if someone had the same issue or if someone can help.
Thx!
Infos :
DHD running CodefireX SR19 and latest radio. No other sign since the release of SR19 some weeks ago.
sounds like you need to reformat SD card on computer. But first copy 4ext folder to computer then format SD. After format SD place 4ext folder back on SD then remount SD to phone see if that helps. You may have to full wipe and reflash rom when you enter recover do to apps moved to SD will no longer be there but may show in rom and when you try to open they will force close.

Hi,
Was running on LeeDroid 1.9, wiped and flashed for OpenDesire 3.4, came up fine then rebooted for the 3.4.2 patch and now my Desire just will not go past the HTC logo screen no matter what I do.
I can boot into recovery and have full access to everything, tried formatting the SD card and loading different ROMS but stuck @ the HTC green logo on white background.
Even Revoked3 again but the prob is not getting into the Recovery menu, its getting past that HTC screen.
Any info / idea's / help?
Thanks

If your phone turns on its not bricked, there will be a way to fix any issues your having, its just finding the correct one.
When flashing other roms did you wipe everything?
Data
Dalvik Cache
Ext parititon (if you have one)
Not wiping Dalvik is the number one reason roms get stuck bootlooping on bootscreen1.
Alternatively, it is booting but your not waiting long enough, you can always run adb logcat while booting to see if they phone is actually doing anything.
Hi,
Thank you for replying....
Figured it out that it is the SD card, here is the situation:
- Boot into recovery but cannot mount nor format the SD card
- Can see the SD card in MAC/ Windows and formated it Fat32
- Can boot without SD card
- Can boot with another SD card which is only 128Meg so cannot get LeeDroid back on it to reflash that ROM
I obviously need to format the SD card proper and it looks like I need to use Gparted but that looks like a HUGE Linux ISO download unless you know of a MAC version of it I can use?
Thanks
Found a 2Gig SD Card, got LeeDroid back on it, flashing and hoping I can boot with the original SD card so I can format with ROM manger but thinking it wont boot up with the SD card in regardless of the ROM, lets hope!
if you don't manage to boot it up. find this in the forum "PB99IMG.zip" w/o the quotes. format your sd card and put the archive in root of sd card. after that turn on your phone by pressing volume down and power on/off. wait till phone recognizes the archive and follow onscreen directions. phone should boot normally as unrooted. use unrevoked to root again and flash any rom you want.
post result.
Okay I am up but not on my original SD card, using a spare.
In recovery mode my phone refuses to mount nor format the card but can see it 100%
Seen some posts of a ADB cmd I need to use or is there something else I can try?
Thanks!
I ran "unrevoked" on my phone again and it booted when I had that problem.
But I took out the sd card when I did that. Not sure if it helps. But who knows.
Tried that, booting without the card is fine, with the card in is the issue, phone cannot see it.
I've got a rooted droid Incredible that I tried to flash a rom or two with last night. CYanogenmod 6.0.2 continuously crashed due to the email app crashing. So I installed shadow rom .1 and everything was going well until I did something stupid. I formatted my sd card bc I wanted to get rid of old apps/data/music and start over. This seems to have wiped out the .zip files for the roms that were running the os as well (in retrospect, no big surprise). So now, I can boot into recovery mode but the sd card isn't recognized (and it isnt recognizable with a card reader on my mac) so it cant find a rom .zip to boot off of. I have another sd card and that one as well is unrecognizable in the phone. Any help is appreciated!
In clockwork recovery I get:
E: Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 (no such file or directory)
ERROR mounting sd card:!

I'm assuming the second one is recognized on your Mac. Try formatting it to FAT32.

Yup, I've had this problem too. It's a flaw with Android. It won't recognize your card because there's nothing ON it.
The only way I solved the problem was by:
1. Putting the microSD into an SD adapter.
2. Put SD card / microSD into a camera.
3. Power camera on.
4. Have camera format the card, and take a picture.
5. Power camera off and remove microSD.
6. Insert microSD back into phone.
7. Format from recovery.
Funny how a camera can solve a problem a computer and "smartphone" can't xD
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.
Hi i have an HTC Desire running a custom rom. I had amon RA and yesterday i have flash Clockmod recovery through fastboot. After rebooting it keep up booting on the flash screen. I have formated my sd card and try to re-install a custom rom but i'm getting an error. E:can't mount/dev/block/mmcb1k0p1( No such file or directory.Error mounting SDCard! I am trying to mount the sdcard through clockmod but still the same error. i was thinking may be the card is not good. I bought another card but still the same. Pls can someone help me to sort that out.
My Desire is s-off with Hboot 0.93
Sounding like the SDcard is "deactivated". Maybe it's the usb-brick? Try a search for that. I think there was anything about reactivatIng SDcard...

Same probem here
Hi.
I juste encountered today the exact same problem : After a Nand back-up using CWM, I discovered that nothing had been written on the SD-Card.
Whan I tried to reboot, I entered into a boot loop.
Back in recovery, I had no mean to mount /sdcard or /sd-ext : I always get an error message "Can't mount ..."
I am S-OFF, Hboot 0.93.
Any help ?
can't mount sdcard
hi today i have bought another sd card. Formated and partition it using gparted. put the card on my phone et voila the phone boot normally and enter the OS. But the card problem is still there and i can access all the apps on the phone. setting is no longer available on the phone. Any idea how can we sort that as i can see a lot of people is encountering this issue. there is no one who can address this issue?
i have got a link to that forum and have try to follow the instructions but stuck on the first step. It says you must root your phone as mine is already rooted but may be we have to re-root it. While connecting my phone i'm getting found new hardware: Qualcomm cdma. I have search the net and downloaded and install activesyn but can't found the phone. I am unable to root it. Any suggestion?
Same problem here although I have a htc explorer. I continuously have to keep reinstalling my Rom and formatting my sd card. Its probably because of software bugs
is your phone say "sd card removed. please insert a new one"?
if yes, try to backup your data and format the SD card with CWM Recovery.
mine was back to normal after partitioned by CWM

Don't waste your money on sd cards. You should get an sd card adapter/reader to format your card using your computer. Sometimes the format option on mobiles do not function properly.

As long as your sd is readable by your computer, you should be able to mount your sd card using cwm recovery

Enable the SD Card functionality. Boot your phone in FASTBOOT mode (back + power), and enter this command: 'fastboot oem enableqxdm 0' . This will re-enable your SD card."
I have a CDMA Desire that would not read the sd card. I tried all the different tutorials I could find, but nothing worked. I finally ended up taking the phone apart, and there was a connection right beside the sd card slot that was partially disconnected. I reconnected that and everything works fine now.
Seems like connections disconnect fairly often with the desire (GPS, LED, SD card, etc..) so if nothing else works and you are comfortable taking your phone apart, you could try that.
Here is a video of how to disassemble the phone.

I've decided to try a new rom today, Iceandfire v1.6. I was previously using sense ginger and just thought I'd try something new since I was bored and curious. I downloaded the rom and gapps and booted into recovery. I wiped data/format and cache aswell as dalvik. I installed from SD card the iceandfire and gapps and reboot the phone. Upon the first boot I got an error saying "Damaged SD card" and suggested I format. So I clicked yes to format but that did nothing at all and just gave me another Damaged SD Card error.
So I said, "OK then, my phone doesn't get along with this ROM, I'll just go back to sense ginger." Rebooted into recovery, started a full wipe again, only this time it gave the error "unable to mount /sdcard/ .android_secure!" and said failed to wipe. So I thought "HMMM!!!" and reboot the phone back into iceandfire rom and wanted to try mounting my card to PC to try formatting that way. I clicked mount and it has been loading since I started writing this post up until about 5 seconds ago and just went back to the previous "Turn on USB storage" screen.
Now I'm out of ideas....If I can't format or mount the SD card, what can I do??
EDIT: As it turns out, the iceandfire rom I flashed turned out to be for the Milestone. I found it in the G2 forum and thought it was for the G2! I thought milestone was part of the ROM name...So I flashed a rom that wasn't made for my phone and now I can't mount SD card. Any solution?
EDIT 2: Was able to wipe the sd card completely, to be honest, I'm not entirely sure how. I put my SD card in another android phone, got the same damaged sd card error, put the card back into my phone, wiped data, successful wipe, went to flash a previous rom, said no files found. mounted the sd card to PC, NO files at all on sd card. Downloading new rom now and will try to flash. Perhaps this thread could help somebody else who might have similar problem. Will edit again once I've tried flashing.
EDIT 3: Unsuccessful. I downloaded MIUI and flashed. It happened to be the only file on SD card after transferring. When I installed it, it just instantly installed, so...it didn't install. So I reboot and now it's gone back to the previous rom, even after wiping data. So perhaps I'm missing some core files? I have NO idea. Should I only need a rom like MIUI for it to work? I honestly don't know. Now that I've rebooted into recovery, there are two new folders on the SD card, lost.dir and Android. I'm formatting again and going to try to flash MIUI again. - It gives the error "Can't open MIUI.zip (bad)". Trying to download "Stock Gingerbread" rom. Will update.
EDIT 4: Once again, unsuccessful. Perhaps I'm overlooking something? Tried two different roms, neither will flash. Atleast I'm able to access my SD card. Does the root apply to internal memory or SD card? I could put a specific rom on my brothers SD card and flash it through there? Perhaps that'll replace the necessary files I might be missing (if that's the case). Please somebody help me. I know this is a lengthy thread, it's just I've tried to provide the most details I could.
EDIT 5: All is well. I used sd card from another phone to install a new rom. Everything is working now.
