Got the same problem

I tried most of the T mobile Roms they have the same bug which is painfull to restore data to the Storage :S and relocate the shortcuts..anyway if u just wanna try how this could be deleted try to pull off the sd out then put it in do it several times it will be wiped I tried that on purpose with the newest Tmobile rom and today wiped again by itself with an old Tmobile Rom :( 4.01.00 and the SD is on the FAT32. I just can't tell what should we do in this case nor the Tmobile wm2003 are good neither the ATT with the sound clipping, If there's some1 could get us the best Rom ever tested or a way to fix all this bug we'd appreciate the help..

GOD DAMN IT!!!!!!! My 256 MMC card got wipped again!!!!! :twisted:

I hate this!!!!! I hate it I hate it I hate it :cry:

I wanna know if the SD card registry solution posted by "spadb" works with MMC cards as well!

I will recover my files & format the card again.. :(

I hope this time it won't be wipped again!

by the way, is there any software which can map the SD / MMC card to a logical drive under windows, while the device is on the cradle (without using card readers)?

I'm getting this problem too. I've had my XDA II for less than a week and its wiped my SD card twice. Looking around other pocketpc forums on the web it appears that other people are experiencing this too. I wonder if this is a bug in the latest Windows Mobile 2003 update?

I've tried using the repair option in an evaluation copy of storage tools and it appears to be able to restore the data. It's almost as if the FAT is getting corrupted including the backup FAT.

I'm using FAT32 for the filesystem. I know my SD card is ok because it has worked 100% on my Orange SPV phone previously.

Going to phone O2 tomorrow because this is getting beyond a joke. :(

Cheers,

Richard.

For all of you guys who lost their data from their SD cards, you can ALWAYS get your data back using any SD Card Reader or Digital Camera.

Just put your SD card in the card reader or the cam & run any file recovery software on the removable disk which appears whenever you connect the card reader / cam to your PC, and you will restore all of your files. :)

I've restored all of my files using this simple way of recovery. 8)

You welcome RamRam...

Don't forget to specify the old file system (FAT16 for example) to EasyRecovery.

If it was FAT16, then the card got wiped, and it became FAT32,, then specify FAT16 and ot FAT32. Also specify FULL SCAN option for maximum recovery power. IF you still didn't get all of your files, use the RAW file system recovery as a last resort. :)

Sorted....

Having looked through the list at :

http://sdprob.aximsite.com/theproblemlist.htm

it appears that there is a problem with the SD card make/model on my XDA II.

I had an SD card with code AR0306LR(made in China) which appears under different

card manufacturers on the list. My card was labeled by Integral but they don't actually

make the cards, so the code AR0306LR appeared under multiple vendors.

Seems that all cards from Japan have no issues.

Bought a new Sandisk Ultra II 512MB code AX0401PN (China also) and so far all is

fine.

If your going to buy a new SD card, my recommendation is to buy one from a retailer

who will replace the card if it has compatibility problems. Bought mine from picstop.co.uk.

Great service.

Problems with Memory Cards Being Erased.

I have only had this problem happen to me once. After that I created a backup on my PC of my Card just for safety sake. I also started to lock the card, granted I can't record to it now, however since I really only use it to run large programs that doesn't affect me much. I also use it to hold all my audio and video. The card I have is a SanDisk 512MB sd Card. Don't know if that helps or offers any other alternatives. After locking my card I have not had any problems, besides this has only happened to me once in the year that I have had my device.

Wiped Storage Cards

I had the same problem with my SD-cards (ScanDisk 128 & 256 MB) a few days after I installed the T-mobile 4.01.16 ENG ROM. I tried a few fixes suggested in this and other threads (the registry fix, renaming it,...), but without succes.

So I installed Storage Tools http://www.softwinter.com/storagetools.html (just downloaded it, no need to buy it), formated the cards as FAT32, Cluster Size 512 bytes, and option "Backup Fat" selected. It's been 2 weeks now, and I haven't had any problems since.

From their website:

What is Backup FAT?

This is a FAT file system option, which specifies that second file allocation table will be created in addition to the usual single one. If later there will be some reliability problems with the card, repair functionality of the StorageTools will have more information about file allocations and better chance of information recovery.

Nope, it's more general than that, I've lost a 1Gb SD card, same symptoms as everybody else and that is with an Orange SPV M2000 with the original software on it.

I seem to be able to recover all the files, but not the videos I took (it sees the mpeg3's, but not the mpeg4's).

Can anybody recommend any software that can find these?

I've some videos of the kids that I'd really rather not lose.

Yeah sure you can get back all your files! Try EasyRecovery PRO

Its the best data recovery software :wink:

You can find a free copy here: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=42863#42863

[General Topics] steveh2:
I tried that, but it doesn't see any deleted files, and the lost files only recovers file types with known signatures and the mpeg4 signatures aren't known to that program?

So I can get back spreadsheets, gifs, jpg's etc, but not the movies (it does recover all the others BTW but I'd already managed to find them with another program).
[General Topics] ezzkht:
Don't use the Deleted Files mode! Use the Advanced Recovery mode..

Also, if you still didn't see your mpeg4 files, use the RAW recovery mode as a last option.
[General Topics] steveh2:
I'll try again now, biut I think the advanced bit was what I was using (lost files?)
[General Topics] steveh2:
No joy, lost files, even in raw mode doesn't see mpeg4 files, I don't believe that it knows about the signatures which must be what it's looking for to recover the data.

It knows about jpegs, gifs, spreadsheets, exe's etc, but it doesn't know about mpeg4 videos.

Anybody know of any newer recovery programs that might be able to recover this?

Or any other ideas on what I could do? (Apart from wish that I'd backed it up a little more often...)
[General Topics] ezzkht:
What was the old file system before your card got wiped? (FAT32 / FAT16 FAT12) ??

If you can guess that, you can specify the file system type in the Easy Recovery's Advanced options..

Also if you know the old cluster size, that would help a lot man.

Do you have FTP?? I have the newer version of Easy Recovery, but its size is around 30 MB. I can upload it to your FTP (if have any).

Hi, I have a similar problem that I have been posting about in another thread (it seems to be a number of threads active in this matter...)

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=139346#139346

What I would like to have, since I´m so good at backing up :) , is a tool to just brutally put a new FAT on the damn card that is totally unreadable (Viking 1 GB), and as you can see on the link it´s my third one going...

I have no interest in recover since it seems impossible, Ijust want the fysical flash card to work by remaking it in some way! And I can´t find a good tool for doing that. After a while the card reader gets dizzy as well, and starts to scan the drives within, looks like a constant reinstall, so I only get grab of the card some times, and the I can see file format RAW when checking properties. This drives me really mad...

Hi All,

I have updated Jelly Bean official ROM 4.1.1 last week, since then I noticed that my battery drain faster than ever, like with in 4 to 5 hours came to below 10%, when I checked the battery usage, out of 100% SCREEN usage shows 65%.

I have set my brightness level to ZERO. Unchecked Auto brightness, not usingg any LIVE wall papers, still I dont have any clue.

After upgrade I cleared the cache in recovery mode, guess all I have done.

I am surprised to see the battery level comes down from 100% to 98% within few minutes after full recharge.

Apart from the above problem, I also found that catching the network signal also become very weak. Most of the places where I get a good signal strenght before upgrade, now I get only one or two points.

Can there be any solution to these problems?

Please help me in this regards

Thanks

Hey Mate! you can also use Google if you dont want to read.there are a lot of different sites where you can download the modems or try to search for a "Baseband"...in xda search function.but if you read the tread you will also learn a bit more about your phone,and you see what helps or not...sometimes it saves also time ...

i know there was a Media Scanner issue and the phone is not going into deep sleep. ive tryed a lot also.the best i had on 4.1.2 was the baseband with dvlp7 or similar like that.a very good battery life and fast connections of gps wlan and hsdpa.just try to flash it over recovery if your phone is rooted.you can change to what ever you want.the newest stuff is not everytime the best...

Everyone says different things.this is my recommendation to you.Also a battery calibration after updating can help to reset the batterystats.

why dont you try a custom firmware?im now on omega v11 4.2.2 with dorimanx 9.14 and im very very happy with it.in normal usage im now at 3 days with 2g modus and the standard battery! i can also switch fast between 2g/3g with a toogle.this saves a lot of battery life.but its up to you.

Same problem

Hi guys I hope somebody will still see this and actually know what else is causing this problem because I have the same problem. From my use on stock /or using as last the 4.0.3 salman ICS ROM I did get awesome battery life .

My usage is still the same. Listening to music some browsing on wifi few games a lot of whatsapp few calls and so on. My battery was like 2 days on salman ROM with about 4hours of screen on time. Sometimes 3 sometimes almost 5hrs.

Now I am happy if I make it through the day with the same usage and I get around 1 to 2 hours of screen on time ! So practically my battery is halve what it used to be.

Getting also weaker signal on WCDMA/GSM. From about 75 to 95 in the same area as I live! So I guess it is also affecting the battery.

Tried some Modems about 7 BUT EVERYONE of them shows EXACTLY the same signal. No change

Betterbatterystats installed but did not find anything suspicious but Battery Monitor told me that my idle battery drain is from about 5mA average in deep sleep now 40 or 60 all the time .

In my log is nothing suspicious highest is screen as usual no faulty Media.

So does somebody know what is causing this problem? I was really excited for Jelly bean on my device but since this is ruining my experience I am really thinking of going back to Salman ROM.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diwad:
still hanging on 4.1.2 jelly bean XWLS8

Testing it and trying if it is some app or cause by wifi as I read that the drain might be because of the wifi.

Still no luck. Flashed about almost every radio available and it is interesting that every single one gives me the SAME absolutely same signal strength. Which is I think at least strange.

So usage the same. Apps the same. Signal is worse but does not affect my usage but maybe the battery drain but I would say my signal is about average maybe a little bit less than average but still good enough to not drop but the battery drain if it can lower my screen on time and overall time on battery to about 50% of what it used to be.

Any suggestions or some advice would be appreciated.

Thanks ahead
