Well last night I had android build on my card and it wouldnt install new programs and games from the android market place so i decided to re format my sd card through my card reader through my computer.

Big Mistake!~ Everything is wiped off but now its taking longer to load programs onto the card and windows keeps giving me an error when trying to load android .Cab onto my card :-( i really dont want to buy a new one lol

The .cab is dead. Have you tried the zip version? See my thread here.

But the .Cab worked before and it doesnt now?
Is there another re formatting program that i can use
to make it back to normal?? or is my SD card just ****ed up?

Reef updated the cab, and it's broken. cab takes for-freakin-ever as well, plus it doesn't really let you see how the system is arranged.

As for your SD card, you can try formatting it using the HP tool. Not sure if your card is messed up permanently or not... Can't say I've ever seen a card completely fail before, but I always buy name-brand SD cards...

First off, Could you please ease up on dropping the curse words? That would be appreciated greatly.

Now, when you formatted your SD card did you format it FAT 32? Also did you use quick format?

The recommended setup is: FAT 32 & Full Format (NOT QUICK).


Thanks

Yea, curse words are not appreciated... Lots of kids in the forums, let's be respectful.

At any rate, what do you mean "when i was in android it would not confirm that i had a sd card in there" <--- I'm assuming you mean some app said there was no SD card inserted? Try dcmedic's suggestions.

Sorry for the bad habit

I got it to work. that Hp tool actually did help me thank you!

I had to reformat it 3 times but it works like a charm now

I had android installed on the card and android was not reading that i had a card inserted but now its does so everything is good

thanks for your help!
