[Q] SD Card issues - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a PC36100 Evo 4g. I tried the following method to fix the SD Card issue but with no luck..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695243
I run the command as instructed and it goes just fine, but the phone still does not detect an SD card.. This all began after using the HTCDev root method here.
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all...-rooting-gingerbread-2-3-5-dummies-guide.html
I did step 1 and unlocked the bootloader without any problems.
I did step 2 and installed amon ra 2.3 via the fastboot method without any problems.
And now I am at step 3, I have the ROM that I want to install, however I can do nothing because there is no SD card detected.
I have tested the 8gb SD card in another device and there are no issues detecting it. I have also tried various other SD cards in the PC36100 and they are not detected either.

SD card not Mounting Cyanogenmod

Ever since flashing cyanogenmod 6 I have been having several probelms
1. My SD card is not mounted and not recognized by anything. This is stopping me from accessing rom manager or making any changes.
I have tried several things including reformating my sd card and removing files just in case it was to full. I have not been able to figure out how to partition it to part fat32, part ext yet. I am running out of ideas and getting very frustrated with my phone. I have three sd cards to work with and none of them are recognized.
2. This would not be a problem if I could just go to stock. Unfortunately I can not get my pc to get me into recovery so I can preforma NAND backup or flash a different rom that is closer to stock. I think this may have something to do with my sd card not being recognized. I have also tried the workaround involving no pc but still am getting nothing,
3. I am also having issues with usb connectivity.
I think if i can either get my sd card mounted or my phone to enter recovery mode so I can flash another rom, add the google add on, or do a NANdroid backup it would take care of my problems. If any one has a great idea as to how to get my sd card to be recognized I feel that would solve most of my problems.
Thanks Brad
Hey I have the same problem!

SD Card Unmounts Every Time I Boot

I finally got around to rooting my 1.32 EVO. I used the method found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=721055
With one exception. Since I was intending to run this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=743781
And he doesn't like clockwork, I flashed RA's recovery before the ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=705026
The root seemed to work fine and I was able to flash just fine. The only problem is that now the SD card is dismounting every time I start up the phone. I know the SD card is fine because if I go into recovery it still sees the .zip files just fine. I've done some searching and some people seem to have the same problem and say that they format their SD card and then it works. Unfortunately, my USB microSD card reader recently failed so I have no way of accessing this card directly. Any suggestions?

Same problem no solution yet?
Hello.
If you need to mound SD Card try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=531310 , maybe it can help you.
If you succeed in mounting the SD card the you should run the PB99IMG from hboot, and this will bring you back to stock with no ROOT and no S-OFF.
How to extract the PB99IMG from the lastest RUU WWE 2.29.405.5 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=880268 (2nd post).
@alinuxos I think that running a RUU might solve your problem by getting you back to stock.
Was there a fix for this?

Error mounting SDCard

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

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.

Weird SD card behaviour

Hi,
My phone is rooted, has stock Rom 2.2, sim unlocked it with sieempi's procedure and everything worked fine.
After repartitioning the SD yesterday, everything was ok until I've rebooted the phone and the card wasn't recognized anymore. I went through the procedure by which I was supposed to issue the fastboot commands and nothing happened (command issued successfully, rebooted)
Here's the weird part: I have 2 x 4 gig mSD class 6 cards: Samsung and Kingston which are not recognized by the phone. I have also a noname mSD card, a 2 gig one, which came with my old Nokia E71 which works fine (it is recognized by the HTC phone, no problems).
I've tried both my 4 gig cards in my E71 and work flawlessly. Can anyone suggest a solution ?
Edit: When I boot in hboot and it checks SD card i get: PB.....img not found.
Edit 2: Booted the Clockwork recovery, formatted the SD card, rebooted phone, still not there.
Edit 3: Reflashed latest stock RUU, still nothing.
Edit 4: Reformatted SDs with a USB adapter, all ok. BTW used Ubuntu to create fat and ext4 partition on SD through the phone.
