Guest Spike8585 Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hey, I am running steves 1.6.1, and twice I have gotten a message that says "damaged SD card". I was forced to format, then it works again, but of course my data was gone. checked through a reader on my pc and it prompted me to reformat. Having some apps installed partially on the sd card makes things worse. I have searched the forum, and I dont see anyone talking about this. it has only ever occured on my new patriot class 10 16gb sd. Does this sound like a bug messed up my card, the phone, or just a faulty card? Thank you for any insight as to what the problem might be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same problem on Sunday evening running 1.8.1 . SD card was the one brought with streak. I was able to save all data from SD card to computer via a card reader. After formatting my SD card, the only way to restore data on SD card was : put SD card in the streak and copy data via USB cable... Same questions raised with this matter.

Guest boboskins Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 I know it sounds obvious - but how sure are you about the sdcard? is it relatively new or have you only started to make use of all of the space. Every time I have encountered this is has turned out that the sd card has been poor quality/fake. If possible take the card out, put it into a pc and test with something like h2testw. Make sure you test the FULL size of the card. Many fake cards are actually just smaller card with the size misreported - as soon as you write beyond the actual size they corrupt. I noticed this with a cheap card I bought when it always curropted after a set amount of data was written. Hoping it turns out to be something fixable ;-) B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Li Ying Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I had the same problem. I take SDcard out and put it into another phone, then connect the phone to PC as Mass Storage. After using Error-checking on my PC, SDcard was revived Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
