[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
I would try simple things first. Do you have a card reader or a different phone to put your card in, so you can mount it to your pc? If so, mount the sd card to your pc, and use windows to check the disk for errors. Let it run and do its thing. Put the sd card back in you're evo. If it stil won't read it, then use your Evo to format the sd card (back up the card first). Formatting it could help. Do you have any other cards to test with? And, as far as the fix you've tried,and you're getting stuck at "waiting for device", I'm not sure. How long did you wait for? Also, do you have any other USB cables to try? I have read on numerous occasions, of people having trouble with the factory HTC cable. And lastly, as the previous poster asked, have you tried any other ROMs other than what you're on? (and what rom are you on, btw?)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
hmm...argh!!

thanks for responding. I just finished to an unroot. My phone does boot up fine now and there is no more "sd card removed" error, but my phone still doesn't see my sd card. And it keeps on powering down and then vibrating 5 times, then the led indicator flashes green and i cant restart my phone without pulling the battery and replacing it. I have a card reader on my pc (im running vista). The pc reads it just fine. ???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Hmm, that is strange. So your pc reads the contents of the card just fine, and when you run a 'disk check' on the sd card, it turns up no errors? What were you doing on the phone when this first started, or was it out of the blue? So since your Evo doesn't see the sd card, then formatting it using the phone isn't an option I presume? What about formatting it using windows (fat32), then putting it in the phone, is that something you tried already?

As far as the phone vibrating 5 times and then you get the blinkng led, i believe that is the phone kicking itself into diagnostic mode. I'm not really clear as to what exactly that is, or why it would be happening, but I am sure that it is in diagnostic mode at that time. So you said you unrooted it, and you're currently on stock, s-off ROM right now? Do you still get the same error when you try the fix that you were initially trying to execute?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
And i cant flash any ROM's due to the fact that my computer wont recognize my phone, therefore i cant access the ADB Shell. This is so frustrating!!!:mad:
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
i was in the process of flashing a rom and thats when the problems started. I haven't tried formatting the SD Card. I dont see how that would help me, because i can access the card and its contents just fine but my phone wont recognize there being an sd card in the phone. It seems to be a trifecta of evil!!! LOL 1.) PC doesn't see the phone 2.) Phone doesn't see sd card 3.) i can't flash anything because i can do nothing in the ADB Shell. I initially went the Unrevoked3 route of rooting and then i went the way of flashing the PC36IMG file that you put on the root of the sd card and then renaming it. The guy in this thread seemed to have the same exact issue and he figured it out. I dont know what im doing wrong.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
well i thought i did an unroot but it still says SHIP S-on???
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
i am formatting the sd card now. what do i do once its done formatting? I've been at this for 22hours now and my brain is officially fried!!
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Once you format it, before you put anything else on the card, I would put it back in the Evo, and see if it will recognize it, totally fresh from the format. If that still fails, then I'm out of ideas. I'm sorry, hopefully someone else can offer some advice if that still doesn't work. I would consider dropping by sprint for some service if you can't get it handled.

Is it still giving you the 5 vibrates? And also, if it says s-on, you are unrooted, Forgive my previous typo.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
thanks. i'll let you know what it does after the format. hopefully this works. (fingers crossed)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Good luck dude. I hope that works for ya, I'll do another quick search and see what I come up with.

Also, did you try this again? After you unrooted? Same results as before, "waiting for device?"

These fixes require the Android SDK and very basic ADB knowledge. You can copy and paste for most.

Make sure in device manager the driver for fastboot is installed (Win 7 downloads them automatically)

For USB fix

Download the flash_image & mtd-eng.img attached, unzip them and put them on the SD card before starting

SD Card Fix

Press & hold vol down and power on the phone

Select fastboot by pressing the power button

ADB commands

fastboot oem enableqxdm 0

fastboot reboot

That should fix your SD card not being detected
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
okay i figured out the sd card issue. too bad i didnt see this thread before i formatted.

"alright, it is done. i was putting it in recovery mode for the sd card, and i should have just stopped at fastboot and not put it in recovery. thanks all of you. you knew what you were speaking about, i just didnt follow the instructions correctly" (posted by airauto)

now my phone recognizes my sd card. whew. one down. thanks for your help anyways.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sl22857:
got the sdcard to be seen by the Evo but now its still rebooting after about two minutes and then vibrates 5 times. ?????
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Glad you got that figured out. Didn't you backup your sd card to your pc before you formatted? Just copy everything back over to the card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Wish I could help you on that, but any thread I've ever seen where people were having that problem, where it vibrates 5 times then goes black and the led blinks, the only resolution I ever saw (and I could be wrong, I'd do a search on google about that, quite a bit of stuff on there) was replacing the phone. I'm not sure of the cause of that. If there is a fix for it, xda and google should have it somewhere though. (but I still think replacing is the option for you)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcsang:
Firstly, thanks to all the devs and forum contributors here.

I recently got rid of WM 6.5 and flawlessly flashed my TmoUS 1024LEO HD2 to Nand DL DesireZ v3.3. This build is terrific and is, for the most part, pre-configured for the T-Mobile network settings. I did however encounter and observe the following:

1. Market - resolved download issues by partitioning SD card as detailed here. Other resolutions were posted in addition to v3.4 with varying success so there might not be a universal fix for all cases.

2. Visual Voicemail - downloaded T-Mobile Visual Voicemail from the market and modified DNS settings as indicated here.

3. Swype - confirmed that Swype 1.60.36.8214 is fully compatible.

This build is very responsive and I have not experience the wake-up lag mentioned elsewhere in this forum. However, I consider my boot time to be a bit excessive. Would the following be considered normal for this Nand release?

Splash Screen - 5 sec.

MAGLDR111 Screen - 20 sec.

htc Screen - 60 sec.

Animated Droid & Eye - 40 sec.

The time, in seconds, represents how long each screen is displayed during boot so my approximate startup time to the unlock screen is approximately 2 minutes. Anyone know if this is typical or experiencing similar boot time?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Zephyrot:
Im using the Rom with a 1GB Ext4 Partition for data, and another 512Mb Ext4 partition, used for Swap, according to the Partition Guide.

Mine takes just the same time as you to boot up, but it takes about 10 mins after it boots to be fully usable, after it finish booting and loading everything the ROM works really good.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcsang:
I'm not experiencing the additional 10 min prep time before my device becomes fully functional. There is a final Nand v3.4 release which I am thinking of trying but apart from the startup time this v3.3 rom is working great!

Since getting rid of WM 6.5 the device doesn't freeze anymore so there won't be much occasion to reboot. :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] slbenz:
I am experiencing similar boot time (2 minutes 5 seconds) on Cmylxgo's Stock Desire HD(2) NAND build. On other NAND builds, I have seen boot up times on my phone vary from as little as 1 minute 30 seconds to as much as 2 minutes 30 seconds. Still, these numbers are much better than any SD build I have tried. Those ranged from 3 minutes 30 seconds to 4 minutes 30 seconds to boot up on my phone for comparison.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] dcsang:
Thank you for your replies. I was unable to find anything on this topic so I hope others can benefit from this information.

I am now receiving the infamous "Unable to Mount SD Card" and apps are FC'ing like crazy. After some research I was able to determine that it's probably due to pulling the USB cable without switching from Disk Drive mode back to Charge Only first. Formatting didn't help and I can't seem to boot into recovery mode to switch modes as indicated in this post so I'm just going to reload and update to Nand v3.4 and MAGLDR 1.13.

Anyway, this is a whole new topic so thanks again for the feedback!

Hey everyone so I just loaded both Bionix V/TW and Bionix V and i am having trouble downloading and installing apps from the market.

Is there anyone else that is having this same problem or is it me?

A few apps i tried to install were; Facebook for android, angry birds, smooth calander, the weather channel, twitter, and a few others....

If there is anyway to get it to the developers that would be cool too! Thanks everyone!

This one might be ROM related: the past few days, I'd get some strange behavior. Either:

I'd click Install and nothing would happen, or

I'd click Install, and it would download, but never install.

If I go back to the market later, I see the progress bar, but it's not actually doing anything. Usually on the second or third try it will download and install correctly.

I have had Bionix V running since its release and the same thing has been happening to me. the Download progress bar would complete, but then there would be no notification of completion of download, it took me a couple of downloads to actually get the App. I would think it is a Market issue because it has only been acting up like this for the past day and a half, but before then Bionix has been awesome.

My wife's mt4g takes about 20 seconds less to start up, but she does have fewer apps and services. Can you post your boot times or recommend ways to reduce the boot time? I already have fast boot enabled. I'm just shocked that the boot time its so long. I'm pretty sure it's normal though...

When I first set it up I let it re-install all my apps and blah, and had the old market. I did a factory reset through recovery and did a fresh sign in through the gmail app, which stopped the restore of my app data, I wanted to start fresh. I had the new market after that.

[Fascinate General] mrjake1970:
borked up the fascinate whilst trying to update to the devs 2.2.

i know exactly what i did wrong. i was running voodoo5, and i clicked to disable lag fix, but i forgot to restart to let it *actually* disable before trying to load the new stuff. STUPID!

when that happened, it hung on samsung screen, then after battery pull all the phone will do is boot loop.. samsung screen, then goes to robot and screen says says "wiping cache, data, ect.." and then back to samsung screen to reboot and reboot.

i have literally 30 tabs open with articles from here and other forums, nothing seems to be working. here is what i have tried.

1. tried booting back to red cwm and playing with the lagfix (enable and disable again) to see if it would work, no go. i ended up losing red cwm - had to ODIN red back.. i cant get green to flash.

2. tried flashing DL09 both the full package and each individual part via ODIN

3. tried flashing the stocki500system.md5 (from the board) and kernel via ODIN, and nothing.. same boot loop. everything i have flashed via ODIN still gives me a boot loop..

4. tried to connect via ADB but it wont let me access the phone.. NOTE: i just downloaded ADB as a last resort and know nothing about it..

the only thing i can seem to do is get to red cwm. i have several backups in the restore section, but none of them seem to work - either i get a "no file found" even though i can see the file(s), or i get an error after it does load that says ".android_secure.img not found. skipping restore of /sdcard/.android_secure"

any ideas?
[Fascinate General] BSayre18:
Okay follow these steps. Make sure you follow them step by step. Even though you have the lagfix installed this removed it for me.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782204

Place the PIT file where it belongs. Then ODIN the system, kernel, and recovery in that order. Don't restart the process every time. Just ODIN them one after another.
[Fascinate General] mrjake1970:
thank you very much for taking a moment to answer. i did follow that thread, however

i managed to get the stocki500 recovery but the other files (recovery, PIT) are all 404 not found errors.

ive tried that stock md5 and it still boot loops. i actually have that tab open from when i tried that route..

any other ideas and thanks again
[Fascinate General] BSayre18:

[Fascinate General] Joe T:
I did the exact same thing a couple of days ago, and recovered a similar way, odin back to D101, flashed DL09 & superclean, then restored a backup, then disabled voodoo and finally flashed DL30. I've got a couple of questions.

1: Is voodoo completely off my phone or is it just disabled (is there a difference)? When I apply update.zip from the blue recovery I get green cwm.

2: Each time I backup, restore, flash a different rom I apply update.zip, then from green recovery I flash "new_cwm.zip". Is this necessary?
[Fascinate General] mrjake1970:
i followed all the hints i got, and i think that the one i got about formatting helped me get out of the boot loop from hell.. it finally took my flash from ODIN, it wouldn't until i did the format(s)..

mind you i am NOT an expert, however from what i read and talked about offline, voodoo is still resident on your phone but disabled (check to see if you have the voodoo file still on your card).. if DL30 is running fine, you are ok..

from what i have read, yes.. the new cwm is required in order to get it to mesh properly with 2.2 leak.. i havent had any issues and i loaded that as well.. from one of the posts i read, if you are a serial flasher, then you need to make sure that not only you download the new cwm zip, but also should have deleted the entire clockworkmod folder from your card for best results..
