SD card corrupted

I have been using a 2GB SanDisk card for about a year with my XDA2i without problems. Until last week when it seems all the data on the card has become corrupt (see attached file). The data looks the same whether the card is read on the XDA or on a card reader. Any way it can be salvaged?

So, no suggestions from anyone. Great stuff...

I have the same problem m8 did u fix it in the end?Mine reads in my magician but not in a pc or my friends phone that i borrowed to do the big storage hack!Also any ideas on how to un write protect an mmc card?
Thanks

write protect? thers a sliding switch at the side of the card to make it write protect.. Is that the one..?

Are you guys using SPB pocket plus & monitoring the SD card as well, with storage card indicator? SD's sometimes are corrupted when proocesses are accessing it @ the sime time.

Just a suggestion...but you could try running some data recovery software on the card (such as "don't panic" - many others out there) to see if it will recover the data.
I would also bug it in your pc and run a scan disk on the card, and check "fix error"
It's worth a try, hope this helps

SD Card not detected

I am using O2 XDA IIs PPC 2003 SE.
Now when I insert my SD Card 2 GB, the OS does not recognize it.
(It was good before.)
I've tried with another 256 SD Card, same result.
Those SD Cards are working well with my Card Reader plugged into my PC.
Anyone could help me please?
Thanks in advance.

I'm sorry I don't know.
However.. you've come to the wrong place if you want help.. people here seem to have an aversion to actually helping people out.. don't get me wrong, there are some very talented people that call this forum 'base', but they are understandably busy.. and the other's who hang just don't answer **** unless it suits them..
You are more likely to get the answer "read the wiki" which isn't the most helpful thing in the world. Even those of us who try others to help despite our knowledge being somewhat wanting.. just in the hopes of being seen to be at least trying, aren't deemed to be worth giving an answer to.
I suggest these two forums.

Try soft resetting the device, poke the stylus in the reset hole and once the device re-boots it should see the card, you will not loose information performing a soft reset - Mike

thanks guys.

Hi, I've also have a sort of problem like yours. I tried soft reset n it actually works. But sometimes my BA still can't read my SD. I've tried format my SD n even upgrade my ROM. It seems that the problem is in hardware. I don't know what to do anymore

U have probably what I also have.. a faulty SD card reader or a bad soldering (welding)...

Last night I dissambled my BA n I found out that the screws around SD card reader were loose. I've tightened them up n so far I don't have any problem with SD card. But I've still exprerienced problem with my screen keep active when my BA was pressed even though I've locked the device n power off. I don't know what to do anymore. Any suggestion?

Problem already solved.
It was because tiny plastic dirts on the SD slot.
Once I cleaned it up, it's working as before.
Thanks to you all. What a nice forum we have here.

I had similar problems with a 1GB card. Formatting it in a PC-based card reader fixed it. Remember not to select quick format.

Can I put a 4GB SD Card in the Blue Angel? Will it work?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It will work if the card is *NOT* a SDHC card.
I found my 4 gig card on ebay, topram is the brand, and it works fine as it is a non-SDHC card.

Sdcard not reconized
HI TO ALL..
I had installed miopocket 4.0 on my VDO Dayton PNA6000-WINCE 5 but
because of problems with Garmin XT I had to uninstall but the uninstall
did not do the best for me, now my SD slot dont read any sdcard i think
its corrupted registry and i dont have access to usb active sync only
have MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) when i connect to usb(no data
transfer). How can i access my resident flash(INTERNAL MEMORY) to edit
registry,change usb mode to activesync or something else???, i think sdmemory.dll is making
load problems.
Tnx in advance!

To have access to registry use TotalCommander or SKTools

but i dont have access to system, sdslot is not functional and i cant install active sync driver just mtu in device manager..

"SIM card memoryu is full" message

Hello,
Could anyone help me? I keep getting a SIM card memory is full message although I have removed all of my contacts from there as well as deleted all of the messages. Also, how could I get my emails to be stored in the SD card? Just one more question, Everytime I try to access the phone stttings, I get a "phone not ready, retry in 15 seconds". does anyone know what this is about???

Looks like your SIM card is defect. If possible try if your SIM card works on an other phone properly.
G.

No problems
I have tried to use my SIM card in another phone and it worked just fine. Could it be that it is automatically storing all of the emails and messages into the SIM card? How could i configure the phone to store those things into the Storage card instead???

security cam

Hi, i need security cam which can record on sd card, when sd card is full, then delete old and put new records.
But i need endoscope or something similar. Because i need to hide this. I need to hide this, put sd card and put to power. I find someone on aliexpress, but i need phone to record this, i need to put it to place and forgot to sometime, when it record all in sd card.
Is this possible?

SD card given to internal storage dead cannot add new one.

Hey All
I have been googling for 2 straight days and cannot find a n answer when i give it a clean SD card, whatsapp still wants the old.
Have i lost my whatsapp texts?, I understand the media is gone as per dead SD but the text i can still read.
Is there a way to add anew card or is the phone logically broken cause half of the memory is gone?
Any help would be good
Thanks

I had to look, I don't even find an option in WhatsApp to use the SD card I have installed.
Could you add some screenshots explaining the issue.
IIRC, most conversations are stored on the servers or your Backup anyway.
One reason why you're up to date if you switch phone, or number.

@argonaut459 thanks for the quick reply it's the fact of how to properly replace the sdcard if you have given the whole sd card to the android operating system it's a different format and I have put in a new sd card that works and my phone sees the extra space but clearly i did something wrong as Whatapp.
Can't save photos told the app to use sd card wont let me save
cannot even save screen shots ?
Tells me storage full so the phone is still believing the old sd is there even though when i gave it the new one it did ask how i want to use the storage and i did tell it to have it for the android OS
I have one of 2 scenarios either i have missed a configuration step or it's not possible to recover from a dead extra "ram" sd card

Sorry, just got informed you answered here.
As I said I have no clue about these things.
Maybe a factory reset might be in order to get the os back into normal, and than try out the SD card as additional storage.
If that works
Reset again
And try as integrated storage.
You really should check integrity and values of the SD card before you use it as that. They tend to just give up.
