SD Card and G1, HUGE PROBLEM!

[Guest gibla]

Hi guys,

I'm having a problem with my G1, bought in UK. I tryed to SPL, and loaded a new Radio. In get the following when I go in fastboot:

HBoot-0.95.000

CPLD-4

Radio-2.22.19.26I

My problem is that the SD card is not recognized anymore, and when I put a card into the device I get a format message. This is what I get with ADG log cat:

I/vold ( 46): New MMC card 'SU01G' (serial 16941020) added @ /devices/platform/msm_sdcc.2/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:e624

D/MountListener( 73): handleEvent volume_nofs:/sdcard

I tryed with several SD cards, Sandisk or Kingstone

Do you have any ideas about it?

I can't load any Rom and when I'm in bootmode I cannot use fastboot command, no skateboard Android at all!!!

Suggestions? Do you think it's an hardware issue? Have you evere experienced something like that? PLS!!

I know this is old, And probably solved by now.

But If anyone else gets this issue try the following.

1. Place microSD card into SD card adapter

2. Format that microSD card via a camera/camcorder (Cameras do a low level format)

3. Format you card on your computer using the FAT32 filesystem

4. Try installing a rom again

my G1 did exactly the same thing at one point, i just popped the card into my pc and quick formatted it after that it worked a treat
