A2SD problem (freeze and reboot) - Desire General

Hi!
I need some help because I already tried all ways, and I'm not able to solve this problem.
I installed a new SD card in my Desire with 16 gb (class 10). I did the instalation of a CM10 custom Rom, like I had in the previous card (2 Gb). Everything was installed with no problems, including the a2sd (I made a partition of 1gb sd-ext with cyanogenmod recovery).
Well, the apps are beeing installed, and the internal memory isn't increasing, so the a2sd is running good, but the phone is allways freezing and rebooting. When it reboots, it freezes on reboot. I have to pull the battery out. This is happening all the time... I already tried several CM10 roms, and I have the same problem.
Can I have some help?

I forgot to say that I already tried your method. Partition Sdcard with 4ext recovery. The only thing that I didn't try was use another app to sd script, because I was not able to delete the a2sd script that comes with the Rom. I did install mounts2sd, but it says that another script was in use.

What brand? I had a similar problem with a Sandisk 32GB. It was so frustrating I've given up on it and gone back to my 16GB Kingston (or was it Adata?). I still need to get around to an RMA on the Sandisk. If you can I would try returning/exchanging it.

Mine is a Sandisk 16gb 10class card. Do you belive the problem is a hardware problem?

Does it do the same with other sd-cards?

If you can plug in to a PC and enable USB debugging, then 'adb logcat' might show something?

Hi,
I've used a sandinsk 16gb class 10 for a year with a2sd and haven't any problems.
Now I'm using a cyanogen rom (CronMod) with int2ext and a Samsung 16gb class 10 and it's benn running cool for more than a year.
Maybe it's a hardware problem (not brand problem I think), or maybe a partitioning problem. I've always format the sd card from a linux system.
Hope you can solve it.

Titanium Back & 16Gb memory card

This is an ongoing problem for me and it's definitely not ROM related, but it makes flashing ROM's difficult, in fact downright awkward!
When installing apps from TB it will get through a couple then reboot, at which point nothing will install until I repair my ext partition (Thank God for AmonRA!). Then it will do the same thing again. It will do the same thing with installing apps from the market too, but it's not so pronounced as I don't tend to install loads of apps at once especially as I've got TB.
I found that TB worked fine with CM7 as it didn't install to the ext partition until I flashed DarkTremors aps2sd, and that worked fine as a way round the problem.
None of this happened until I upgraded my 8Gb to 16Gb sd card. The card seems fine in every respect, just the problem with installing aps :-(
Anyone with any ideas?
My previous thread on disabling aps2sd has not proved fruitful either.

Before I upgraded my pathetic 2gb I done a little research and the word on the street was the hero couldn't handle more than 8gb, recommended by HTC apparently!
Whether this was due to the limitations of the rom(1.6 at the time) or the hardware I don't know.
Have you tried re-formatting your SD card and making sure the ext partion is compatible with the rom your using?

Yeah I've reformatted and reformatted, initially I thought that the problem mgiht have been the backup files had become corrupt when transfering them over ... and yes I've tried ext2 ext3 and ext4 all with the same results (the only rom i tried which wasn't compatible with ext4 was Cronos).
Maybe its true about 8gb being the limit the hero can handle, maybe someone else can confirm or deny.
I'm sure I've seen some on here using 16Gb cards, but it would be good to know, maybe I should change to the Froyo aps2sd?
Maybe you could try doing a nandroid backup, and trying a different rom to see if it works, if not you could have a faulty SD card???
I a, using a 16 Gb card without problems, I always do a full wipe of my phone and a format of my card before flashing a new Rom. I use the aps2sc within the rom and make sure that the settings are right (install to external) before I use titanium.
I am on elelinux 6.2.0

The max htc Hero should handle would be 32gb I believe. According to link 1, htc hero supports SD 2.0. While SD 2.0 is also called SDHC, which according to link 2 its max is 32gb
Maybe you should try to pull /proc/last_kmsg to see why it rebooted? (post it at pastebin.org, and place url here. Maybe we can understand it )

Yeah I'm really confused as those were my settings also and I tried in on Elelinux 6.2 ... I think it must be either my Hero had a bad day it was born or the sd card did, but it always comes up clean when scanned.

16gb card here, use TB all the time and nadroid as well and never had a problem. Maybe your card has some faulty sectors. Try to copy 16gb on it on the PC and copy it back to your pc after you've made sure nothing was cached. Or try scandisk to see if a part of the flash is broken, maybe.
Using a cheap ebay-bought Team 16GB Class6 with TB, flashing and nandroids. No issues whatsoever. Works great!
I've scanned the disk multiple times, not tried a full 16gb transfer ... and I'll get the log output in a minute or two
output of /proc/last_kmsg
http://pastebin.com/0rpNHFF8
Thanks in advance!
Edit: It got to installing around 15apps this time before crashing. It varies as to when it dies, but it will. I even considered that it was overheating, or due to OC'ing, but it does the same thing regardless of temp or CPU speed
i also use 16gb sd card for 3 or 4 months and nothing ever happens like that. everything works perfect...
Have a feeling that it's corrupt, as I have a new problem with installing anything, I now get told there's not enough room to install or updates apps ... when there's plenty ... arrrgggg!
if 16gb isn't working for you, send the card to me. I have a working 2gb you can have instead.

Haha that's really funny.
Actually I ran some scans, fsck's and reformats with repair options, and if it wasn't for the reboot issue and instability issues I have with Elelinux 7.0.3 then I'm sure I've got it fixed... I hope ...

Need help! USB half-brick.

Bought a new 8GB Kingston class 4 sdcard, put it into the phone, partitioned, reflashed the Rom, rebooted... voila! Phone says there's no sdcard. In recovery it's all right, but after booting the rom there's no sdcard, and under Settings->Memory it just asks me to insert sdcard. Help pls, anyone.
BTW, device is PVT1 AMOLED running BCM RC4.1U2, and it was just fine with my previous card (4GB Sandisk).

Did you do correct partitioning? FAT32 needs to be the first partition and ext4 the second. I had similar problems once, and it was because of that. If that's all done correct, try if you can read it in a card reader.

Mate, it's not the first sdcard in my life FAT32 first, ext4 second. Repartitioned about ten times, tried fat32+ext4 and fat32 only. No go. The card can be read through recovery (usb storage) and with card reader. Also, it perfectly works on Nokia phone (6300 if i remember correctly).
Could my problem be Rom related?

Sorry bout that, it's getting a bit difficult with all the noobs around. I'd see if it persists on other ROMs, sounds like a problem there.

EXT-partition makes phone unstable.

Hi there!
I've got a problem with my HTC Desire sd card partition.
Every rom works fine, sd card also but it starts to force closing, freezing and randomly rebooting when I push apps to sd card using any of the A2SD scripts (except stock one). I mean, when I use roms which just need SD-EXT (such as MIUI or SpazeDog ICS) nothing seems to work uncorrectly but when I move apps all problems start. I tried many roms (MIUI, InsertCoin Sense, SpazeDog) and diffrent moving scripts (A2SD+ ; D2EXT ; and others which names i forgot) and it always caused reboots, FCs and frezzes when I pushed my apps. Can you guys tell me how to fix this problem, or is it just my SD card broken? I always partitioned card by 4EXT recovery, tried EXT3 and EXT4 file system, never made partition bigger than 1GB. My SD card is a Sandisk 16GB class 4.
Sorry for my bad english, Szotaa
An important thing is the method younused to partition your sd (a tool you used).
Also, it wouldn't be bad to buy faster sd card (class 6 or 10).
So, the solution for the problem would be using another partitioning tool? Is gpared a good choice?
Now I saw you used 4ext recovery, and it's the best tool. Gparted is the second best, but I think u need a new sd.
One more question, is your phone s-off? Some scripts need it to work properly.
Yes, my phone is s-off. So its a sd card issue. At the end could u tell me is supernova rom going to work properly, even on my sd card? Because i heard it is the stabliest d2ext ever made.

Supernova recommend a certain brand of sd card to work with the rom. I cant remember it off the bat but it's stated on Droidzone's website/forum.

Based on user feedback, we recommend a Transcend Class 6 for D2SD roms.

I'm using aLenovo A7000 running on ressurection remix V5.5.9 in which i don't have the option to unmount my sd card.Please suggest me a way to do it and also while transferring files from my pc on my phone...i switched my phone from a mass storage device to the'charging only'option and after that my phone doesn't get recognised at all by my pc as a usb mass storage device.... And i can't even find those options anywhere in the settings and usb debugging also isn't working.Pls help me ASAP!
My 16gb SD card also does this. Before it started though, all of my music files on it became damaged, but would still play partially, then end prematurely. I think this may just be cheap ass SD manufacturing. I say just boycott SD and get the Samsung card.
Solution / Fix:
Install Wake Lock PowerManager on google play. Enable Partial_Wake_Lock then viola! No more unmounted / eject problems. The problem is everytime your mobile is in sleep mode, the unmounting error occurs.
Also install SD Card Monitor to check the counter of mounted/unmounted/ejected sdcard.
Hope this helps.

64gb micro SD problems

I'm running Jasminerom 4.0 and I cannot get 64gb micro sd cards to work properly on my VS985. If I format via settings, it defaults to exfat. Performance suffers and I seem to get random corruption of files. I've tried formatting to fat32 via TWRP and via Windows. Performance is better for a bit, but in time the phone starts not writing to the card for some reason. I've tried 2 different cards, Samsung evo and SanDisk ultra. I'm currently using a 32gb SanDisk ultra which works as it should.
Any others have this problem with 64gb cards?

Yes i have this problem too. I somehow semi-repaired files corruption by formating the 64GB card with Easues partition manager. Format it with this program as FAT32 and see if it helps.
Thanks I'll try that and let you know how I make out.
Using a 32gb card is an ok workaround but this problem really bugs me. I'm hoping the lollipop update might fix this issue. We'll see...

Like mentioned above, formatting your card to 2x fat32 partitions should fix it. The problem is with exFAT. I doesn't see it as a removable memory and ends up getting corrupted, sometimes, a reboot will fix it but after a while, it needs a fresh format.
I'm thinking the problem is with the kernel as stock didn't give me issues, could be wrong though. I know CM broke it last week so ROM that are base off it would have it broken as well but could be fixed by now.
I used Easeus to format to fat32. The card worked great this weekend.
This morning I checked for some files and several entire directories had been deleted. Looks like I'm having the same issues as before, and I really don't know what is triggering it. I'll stick with my 32gb card for now.
has anyone found a solution for this I've bought several different top of the line cards, anything over 32gb stuff gets corrupt.
appreciate any help, thanks in advance
