SD Card Woes

[wellmoon]

Hi,

I've had a 1GB SD card in my wizard for months with no problems at all. I had some software installed on the card and the other day I wanted to free up some space so I uninstalled the apps that were on the card (SPB time, SPB shell and Brain school)...Since then, my phone does not recognise the SD card. There are no errors or anything it just doesn't register that the card is there. I've done a factory reset but this has not helped.

I'm running WM5 with a moleski updated ROM that has been on the phone probably a year or so

Any ideas?

I guess the card must be knackered, I tried it in my camera and the camera wouldn't work either. weird how just removing software could kill the SD card...

Run the card in a card reader on a computer. There, you should be able to do a long format/bad sector search. This will tell you once and for all if it's dead. It's the only way to be sure.

i have exactly the same problem and its happened twice now. the data is fine on the card just wm5 doesnt recognise its existence any more... if you wipe your phone and start again it pops back to life :(

I've tried a factory reset (hold the four buttons then press send) but this hasn't fixed the problem....I need to buy a card reader I guess to check for sure
