Strange,

My sd card suddenly stopped working two days ago (I have the new update). Just like that, in the middle of the day a msg saying something like no sd mounted appeared out of nowhere. I removed the card, put it back - nothing.

Than later in the evening I exchanged cards with a friend with wildfire and goddamn it worked! It's working ever since and I even removed and replaced it a couple of times with another card.

Now I wonder... should I revert back to previous OS version (I have radio and hboot s-off) or just do nothing and hope the problem doesn' return.
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
Well, if the SD is dead its dead.. if it doesnt randomly works after a week or so..

Convincing is the only option except buying a New SD ...

I guess you have to hope the problem doesnt reappear. Seems like if the SD start working again, it wont crash again.. no one that ive seen have had the problem twice..

[Desire HD Accessories] XmUrF:
Well I hope i won't be the first one then. And I don't know what happened but my sd card seemed quite dead. When that happened I removed it and put it back in - the phone didn't find anything. I didn't know if it's the phone or the card so I just tried the card on my friend's phone ( another htc, maybe that matters) and it started working again.

I called up UK who logged the fault, understood my problem and said they'll dispatch my call to their escalation for faults/troubleshooting. Day after I got an email from their Ireland center who requested me to mail the phone back at my own expense. Replied to this restating my issue and have not heard back for days now...
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
Dont they understand that its not the phone thats corrupted?

Sent from my Desire HD using both my thumbs
[Desire HD Accessories] sengork:
The UK guy on phone support who lodged the case initially did. Whoever picked it up does't. Time to ring them up again later...

The card isn't worth the postage fees I'd pay for sending the phone back for "repairs". Not to mention the inconvenience.
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
Its not worth the fees no.. then its even cheaper to buy a new one at a local store..

Htc just answerd with an email asking if it was a samsung or sandisk card. Told the guy on the phone it was a samsung.. he prolly forgot to write that down, or maybe, they tries to tier me out waiting :o:o:o

[Desire HD Accessories] fana05:
what the eff.. i was rudely awoken by "Beeps" instead of my Music. Up on further investigation it turned out that my sd card has gone down the same road.. neither pc, nor phone will recognize it anymore. WTF?? all my **** was on it, i am livid right now

i have no time, let alone patience to deal with some customer service.. if i buy another sd card today, is my phone gonna kill it just as it did this one?
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
No one has had problem with a new sd card. So no, you should not have further problems if you change sd card :)

[Desire HD Accessories] fana05:
haha thanks but i think im gonna wait a week or two.. i didnt have any problems up until this morning with the sd card that came with it and then it got obliterated by the phone out of nowhere. this phone is giving me nothing but headaches ughh..
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
Do that :) just got a reply from htc and they were going to send a new sd to me but they wanted me to send back the corrupted one for research :):)

Sent from my Desire HD using both my thumbs
[Desire HD Accessories] :
same happened to me, except not because of the update - it just died :S

htc said they'll arrange for a replacement to be sent out, but asked me to confirm the make of it! yay :)
[Desire HD Accessories] mynthix:
Confirm what? :) Good that they understood the problem!

[Desire HD Accessories] paulus_01:
Has been going one for some time (as of the latest OTA release (1.72))....there is a reason it has been put offline by htc ;)

from a little research on another forum, all users that have corrupted sd cards had a 8GB samsung card, had stock rom, and just installed the OTA update (just = anywhere between 1 - 10 days)

HTC is likely to be replacing the sd cards (call them)
[Desire HD Accessories] sengork:
They finally agreed to send me a new one. I hope replacement cards will not go faulty.

Nice sengork, happy for ya

[Desire HD Accessories] El_Nino9:
just got off the phone to HTC using the 012 number rather then the 0845 number, thanks chapperz for posting it.

erm they were quiet friendly when i called and know this is a common fault now as a lot of people are complaining about it.

they just wanted my address to send the micro SD card with no complicated questions to ask. just wanted to know what software version i was using and thats that. the lady on the phone said i should get a message from htc within two days from escalation team :S personally i don't care i just want a new working micro SD card and an OTA update to fix this bloody mess LOL
[Desire HD Accessories] [Adama]:
I was going to buy the desire hd, but i do not want to buy new sd cards until theres a fix for that from htc. What do you recomment? should i wait until the problem is solved, or should i buy the dhd anyway?

do you know about a sd card thats is working fine with default rom and latest ota update?
[Desire HD Accessories] sengork:
Anything but the bundled Samsung SD card seems to work fine with the OTA. This is however assuming that those non-bundled cards would not have been impacted by the upgrade process itself. Most people would have had their bundled Samsung SD card inserted during the OTA upgrade process.

I don't think there are any definitive answers beyond "don't use bundled Samsung SD cards with the latest OTA update".

Fingers crossed that replacement Samsung SD cards are not prone to the same issues.

Perhaps it'd be good practice to take the SD card out during upgrades?
[Desire HD Accessories] maurei:
I had the same with my SD Card... A lot of ****ing precious data gone.. Thank´s a lot HTC.

Without any real issues they agreed on sending a new one. I made them agree on something slightly different though. I said I wanted to buy a 32gb SD card anyway, so they now going to send me a 32gb but with the costs of a 8gb card substracted from the total price.

Also, I managed to not having to send my broken SD card for "research" (i.e. check whether you're not cheating) So hopefully my sd card might revive one day like described above...... and all have all my data back:D
[Desire HD Accessories] SlowGold:
The same thing has just happened to me.

Installed latest update, few days later SD card is no longer recognised. Lost all of my pictures and other bits and pieces. :(

My phone is completely standard, as it came out the box.

Spoke to HTC, said they would escalate my complaint and then I should expect to be contacted by the escalation team before they can send me a new card.

Just hope they manage to sort this problem out, the phone has been awesome up until now.
[Desire HD Accessories] El_Nino9:
just got off the phone to HTC again as they called back. They have no micro SD cards in stock until the 26th January, that's a bit rubbish. 2 weeks without a micro SD Card? are they having a laugh? in all honesty at least the people are nice when they speak to you, i.e. polite.

they called to take more details about the SD CARD used. said it was the standard one supplied and he said sandisk i was like no, samsung. gave the serial numbers and w.e. other numbers at the back of the card. in the mean time changed my rom to CM7 and using 2gb card that came with the G1 which is only used for the PS3 home brew
[Desire HD Accessories] :
They called me too! However I was unable to answer at the time - they left a voicemail. They asked me to tell them what update was installed, but they didn't say anything about no sd cards!
[Desire HD Accessories] SlowGold:
They haven't got back to me yet, was expecting to get a call like you but haven't had anything yet.

Will see what happens next week I suppose......
[Desire HD Accessories] SlowGold:
I finally received my replacement Card today! :)

Interestingly, it's a SanDisk 8Gb Class 4, not like the original Samsung 8Gb Class 2.

Maybe they have realised there was a problem with the Samsung Cards included with the phone at time of purchase?
[Desire HD Accessories] sengork:
Possibly but I suspect they ran out of Samsungs which were handed out as replacements initially.
[Desire HD Accessories] :
Bit of a bump, sorry! I finally received my replacement - it also is a SanDisk 8GB Class 4! Though I'd misread!

Can't complain though :)
[Desire HD Accessories] Burning_aces:
Think I'll have to ring them as well..
[Desire HD Accessories] sengork:
Finally got SanDisk 8GB replacement card with higher Class rating compared to the failed Samsung.

Hi;

Im looking for recommendations for a good file manager for my HTC Desire HD, I mainly use a mac as my primary PC but also use Win XP and 7.

I'm looking for something that can access files on my SD card on my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] vecc:
Root Explorer is what i use. Perfect for my needs.

+1 for both Astro and Root Explorer

[Android Apps and Games] Spoetnicus:
I use astro and root explorer together.

I love the user friendly interface of astro and its amazing app manager.

The only thing that makes me use root explorer is.. well the root aspect :p astro can't explore the phone's root.
[Android Apps and Games] Brad103:
I use FileGo

It's not a popular one,..due to people not understanding how it work I think (many comments say it doesnt have copy/paste),..but I like it more then Astro (which I used till it went pro).

FileGo has 2 explorer windows you can swipe between and drag/drop files for easy copy/paste.

Another nice feature is Catalog button on the bottom which gives you quick access to: SD Card, Processes, Apps, APKs, Music, Pictures.

I'll have to give root explorer a go though, only rooted recently.
[Android Apps and Games] ironlood:
I'm a file manager fanatic.

Astro-used this until it went pro

Linda manager- nice explorer

Es explorer - so far my fav

Super manager - decent, its free and allows you to explore root ... its also a task manager... its GUI is a bit unsavory and its a memory hog (28mb RAM)

Ghost commander - similar to total commander on the PC. Allows 2 pane exploring and with its update added experimental root browsing feature.

OI manager - very simple browser

Am i the only one who likes the stock files manager? :D Unfortunately gingerclone doesn't have it.

edit post: damn i thought i was at the vibrant sections. haha!

ES File Explorer ~ and simply because it allows me to share files with my PC.

Absolutely brilliant....

Since using ESFE I have stopped using USB to connect to my PC for sharing files.

Never heard of this one until today. Whoa! This is going to be my staple file manager..beautiful folders, custom icons and classy interface..and it shows apk icons which is a must for me. Nice features in settings.

Also File Expert is nice, advanced features like "use as root explorer"..another one I liked, but can't remember.

FileExpert - most complete

Then if you're brave enough try AT File Manager, it's the one i developed and the one i prefer :)
[Android Apps and Games] TheZer0:

For me definitely the best.

Before TC i used Root Explorer + Astro
[Android Apps and Games] DnaPolymerase:
File Expert is the best to this date. Lots of feature and totally free.
[Android Apps and Games] Marsou77:
Adao File Manager because it is very simply to use it and the UI is nice! You can manage your app and backup it too
[Android Apps and Games] deetailed:
I've tried OI (bundled), File Expert, ES File Explorer, Total Commander, Ghost Commander, Rythm Software's File Manager and AndroXplorer.

The one I keep is Ghost Commander. Free, no ads, simple but not ugly UI, root exploring, easy R/W remounting, chmod, zipping & unzipping, text editing and the (as far as I know) unmatched capability of dual panel browsing. Very handy for copying and moving files.
[Android Apps and Games] doumer:
FX Fileexplorer

still in beta and root options missing, but after the final release with root it'll be my only filemanager, because it has the best UI and a lot of usefull functions like network features, bookmarks, buildin text- archive- and imagetools and much more :)

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gergohad:
Hi,

I'm using a rooted DHD, with the stock Sense ROM. I've tried installing the stock android calendar the following way:

I removed the HTC calendar.apk using root explorer. Then after extracting it from a cyanogenmod ROM i installed the android calendar.apk. The install went fine, but I got a force close each time I opened the app.

Then I also removed the HTC GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk (using RE), exctracted the cyanogenmod version and tried installing it but after each attempt it says "App not installed".

Should I flash this file using ROM manager instead, or will that **** up my DHD? (Will it even work if I do this?)

As you can see, I'm pretty much in the dark here.... Does anyone have a flashlight? I would greatly appreciate it!

So even on my brand new MT4G with Flash, it won't let me stream from the website and to my knowledge the Netflix App doesn't yet support video like it does on the iPhone.

Has anyone else figured out a workaround yet? I was thinking maybe there's some way to "trick" the YouTube app into doing it for me.

Thanks!

Im not exactly sure, but i think netflix uses silverlight and that doesnt work on android. There is no official netflix app on android yet.

Ok, I hope i'm not regurgitating info, and if I am. Please kill this thread. But I was pretty sure i've been paying attention and no flash was working yet. I hijacked this info of of this thread : http://android.modaco.com/content/z...295/flashlite-working-with-stock-android-2-1/

so the credits not mine, BUT , I did install the .lib files, and then load the apk and guess what? Flash!! It doesn't seem to work in Dolphin, but it did load and work in the native browser. It's choppy, doesn't seem to look very good, but it's a start right?

Ok, so use root explorer to move .lib files to system/lib, then install the apk and voila. I've included a screen shot for proof of concept. Either way, it's in your hands now guys. I'm not even close to a dev, just a googler. I was thinking about how flashlite worked on other devices but not ours and figured there would maybe be dependencies we could move over, obviously someone else had already done the work for me on a seperate device.

EDIT: alright, this is weird. I probably should have done some more testing before I jumped the gun. (sorry, I was excited) Apparently I also installed another version of flash player prior to the instructions I posted. Nothing seems to work unless the lib files, and both versions of flash are installed. This can't be right, nor does it make sense, but i've tested both versions with the lib files and without each other and they don't work...so anyone else who cares to mess around installing different versions of flash with the lib files, maybe we can get better results. I've attached the other flash file I used below.

Pretty cool, I wonder what other browsers this works in. I'll have to give this a try, it'd be nice to watch some of the blog videos or such.

I just tried it in Opera Mobile, didn't seem to be working there (I went to the 'what's my flash version' site and nada)

I actually started the thread in android development, and it was moved by a mod to general. I'm not sure i'd want to waste too much dev attention on something like this when I know they are close to finishing 2.2 and i've read gingerbread might be coming soon too with CM. Right now the only reason to use those apks on the original post is if you'd like to be able to see more ads on web pages than you were previously able to.

Sorry all.... but dude every post you have on here is the same. I have to assume you work for the video converter you keep mentioning considering some of the posts you've replied to are stale and haven't bee touched since Dec.

I'm new to getting a NC and rooting it, but I'm interested in having flash on mine.

Have you guys experienced any problems with your NC after pushing this Flash on it?
[General Questions and Answers] V3ng:
Hi all.

Huge apologies if this has been solved, but I have tried everything I have found on here (and other places) and nothing works.

Symptoms: Dreaded "Download unsuccessful" after a few hours of use, market is fine before hand

Device: Scroll Tablet - http://www.storageoptions.com/products/scroll/scroll.php

Fix that kind of works: Full factory reset, but market then stops working after 5+ hours

Fixes attempted:

1) Reboot

2) Clearing various caches and data of various google apps

3) Starting again with a new, virgin, google account

4) Uninstalling updates in market app

5) Trying a pre-froyo stand alone market APK

6) Playing around with wifi (and data) settings

7) Logging in and out of Google Talk

8) Hammering a download of a new app (50 times one after the other)

9) Clearing cache in maintenance menu

10) Praying to God

My account is fine, as my Desire HD can download happily all the time.

Visionary does give me temp root happily, so I was wondering if a fix_permissions style script could help?

Also, someone said it could be Google blocking me as my account has paid-for apps on it and the Scroll Tablet is "free apps only". However, when I created a virgin Google account, the same thing happened.

Any thoughts, links, or general sympathising would be greatly appreciated!
