Internet Downloads?

When I try to download things from the internet onto my phone, it says I have insufficient storage. I formatted my SD and now have over 7GB of free space so I think the downloads are saving to my phone instead of my SD card. The problem is, when I go into my internet settings to "Download storage" it says "Storage card" underneath but it's grayed out. How do I fix this problem?

Anyone??? Please?

Did you format your SD card via your phone or via computer. If via computer, format it from your phone. Menu - Settings - SD & Phone Storage.

^I formatted it on my computer. Now, I just formatted it on my phone and my SD card wouldn't mount so I rebooted and now I'm stuck on loop on the FreshEvo boot screen.

Turn your phone off and then remove the SD card. Boot your phone to make sure you can boot normally. Afterwards, turn off your phone, reinsert your card and reboot, if you get stuck again, reboot into recovery and, depending on what you have, you *might* be able to format the card from there. If not, reformat via your phone. It *should* work. It always work for me.

I'm still stuck on the loop without the SD card in, and when I boot into Recovery it says it can't mount the SD card.

Your problem is not the SD card then. Your phone will operate without it. If you done a nandroid backup, I recommend that you use it to restore your phone to operating status and reformat your card once completed. Sorry for the delayed responses, I'm doing chores and stuff and reading the forums as time permits.

Do you, by chance, have a spare SD card? I just want to see you get out of the loop and into your phone's menu. I don't see the connection with you being unable to boot completely and your SD card because the card is not mounted until after you're at your homescreen. Also, if you're unable to mount your card for a nandroid restore then your phone is useless, but not completely so don't fret. Therefore, acquire a different card and go from there. If you have To buy one, buy a 4gb card. Remember, we're trying to get you to your homescreen and if push comes to shove, the ability to flash your rom.

I'm having the same issue with my HTC Desire. The Download Storage option in the browser settings appears grayed out. I've formatted the card through the phone menu, I've rebooted it but the issue remains.
Did anyone solve this?
Thanks in advance.

PLEASE HELP...Can't get SD Card Swapped!!

I just got a 32GB Micro SD Card for my evo and I am trying to replace my current 8gb card. I was previously running MIUI 11.26 and using clockworkmod recovery. I followed these steps because I couldn't find anything Evo specific:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/15/ho...-android-when-using-swap-hero-and-or-apps2sd/
when trying to format and reapply the rom i was using i received this error msg:
E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0) (No such file or directory)
Now I don't know where to go from there. I previously had a 16GB card fry because apparently i didn't take the correct steps to get it working properly, i do not want that to happen again. Can ANYONE give me specific instructions for swapping my SD Card for my Evo?? If so I would GREATLY appreciate it!!!
And yes...this is probably rather "noob-ish" and I DID already search the forums for any help and couldn't find what i was looking for. Again any help is appreciated
Thanks!!

just copy all files from your 8g card to the 32g card pop it in the evn and you are good to go, nothing special required. Unless you are using apps to sd, then the easiest way s to put all apps back on the phone, then after switching to the new sd put them all back on the sd.

sorry if i'm misinformed but the evo has 2.2/apps2sd built in and 2.2 partitions the sd card on reboot. The article u linked i believe is for devices with 2.1 or ealier and a modded apps2sd . I have swapped many different cards and have not had to do anything that special.
Here are my steps:
1. go into settings manage applications and pull all apps back to phone.
2. copy all files/pics/vids/whatever u want to keep to computer.
3. power off, swap out sd cards, power back on.
4. phone should boot and partition sd or whatever.
5. use astro file manager and if it shows directory for sd, asec, secure then everything is good and u can move apps back to sd.
6. hook phone to sd and move all your kept files from old sd to new sd

I have seen your problem happen with a bad sd card, where did you get the 32g card. You may want to test it and see if it is actually a 32g.

Thanks for the response...just a question before i go forward with it, when i replace the card and reboot the phone, is it automatically going to boot up w/ the rom i was using before replacing the card?
Edit: Tried these steps and got stuck in bootloop for MIUI (rom i had flashed previously). Even tried to put the initial PC36IMG file on the sd card and flash it through recovery, nothing! It searched for it then says it directory cannot be found. I've put the 32gb card in my card reader on my computer and it comes up just fine, I can add files to it, format it etc and everything works, any other suggestions...this is becoming highly frustrating! Again any help is definitely welcomed!

So i still cannot seem to get this working, and I've tried doing a lot of different things and nothing is working for me, I have tried to install some sort of file manager program (astro) but it doesn't recognize my sd card, yet my phone shows it as mounted and with plenty of space available. I do not know what else to do...can ANYONE help me?

i had a similiar problem recently. For christmas I received a new sd card. At fist it didn't recognize my card. I tried to format it using my PC but I then went to my recovery (Amon RA) and clicked on the Partition SD card option.
After I partitioned, I turned on USB-MS toggle and put all my files back into the phone (including my rom zip).
I disabled USB-MS toggle, and then wiped data/factory reset, cache, dalvik-cache
Flashed zip from sdcard and violoa. It works!
try that one out.

Error mounting SD Card

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.

[Q] WFS freezing at boot after SD partition crash

Hi everyone, this is my first post but I have been lurking for a little while. Thanks to this forum I was able to unlock and root my phone (WFS European A510e running 2.3.5). I partitioned my 8Gb into 7Gb FAT32 and 1Gb ext2, and used Link2SD to free up some internal memory. All was well until about a month later when I began getting 'insufficient space' errors when trying to link new apps, even though it showed over 800Mb free.
And that is when I made the seemingly harmless move that set into motion the near demise of my phone! I tried to move a linked app to SD card. Immediately most apps force closed and displayed the 'missing app' android icon. Link2SD was gone so I couldn't try to undo it so I rebooted my phone but nothing changed. At start apps force closed again and a 'Damaged SD card' notification popped up. Being the cautious noob that I am, I had made a backup when I rooted the phone. I went into Hboot and through ClockWorkMod flashed the backup. When the phone rebooted it got stuck at the splash screen. When I put the SD card into a reader and plug it into the PC then the SD is visible for about 30 seconds before it crashes. I tried using MiniTool Partition Wizard to reformat the SD card. It says that it is completed successfully but when I remove and reinsert the SD card I see that it has not reformatted. The 7Gb partition seems fine. The 1Gb ext2 is 'unavailable'. When I try to format the SD card through CWM recovery then it says that no SD is found. I have cleared data, dalvik cache, and cache partition many times to no avail. I have also tried copying the backup copy from my PC to another SD card and trying to flash backup from that but I get a 'no files found' error.
I downloaded RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.13.401.3_Radio_47.23c.35.3037_7.54.39.28M_release_236989_signed and RUU_Marvel_S_HTC_Europe_2.26.401.3_Radio_47.23e.35.3038H_7.57.39.10M_release_261695_signed in an attempt to flash my stock ROM but when I try to open either RUU wizard I get a '5001' error.
And this is where I am now :crying: I'm so confused. I hope I haven't messed my phone up beyond repair. If anyone can help me figure this out I will be forever grateful!

Anyone else had SD card go corrupt and resulting issues? I'm stuck and need help gett

hey,
i hope this is a good place for this. let me know. I posted in Viper thread and TWRP. I'm desperately seeking answers because I'm stuck now with low functionality and trouble restoring system image... Read on...
i have Viper10 4.4.0, and i have a 128gb MicroSD card as internal storage. Well this card just bit the dust, i lost everything on it. That's ok cus it was backed up, but I am still having problems, so i am guessing the Viper ROM / system doesnt like that the card is gone. it's corrupted i suppose.*
Before i bought a replacement card, i tried using my camera. "please insert an SD card" - so it couldnt adapt to the card being gone? there were other similar things but thats a good example. So i bought another card, class 3, so its fast. i formatted it as internal storage, and still got the same message in the camera!
Another example is I cannot download anything in Chrome - whether I have no card, new card as internal storage, or new card as removable storage - none of those will work.
So i thought it must be time to restore TWRP that system image i made while back. i pasted my backup onto the SD card, went to TWRP to restore, and TWRP didn't even see any files on the card. So, i reformatted to removable storage, pasted, went to TWRP. did restore > my system backup. It said "select partition" but it didnt allow me to select anything, nor did it initially show anything selected. so the backup initiates but stops and complains "no partition selected."
can you advise me at all? is the system image restore what i need to do, and if so, what do i do about the partition selection?
Any other ways I can get back to stock?
thanks!
