Was having problems with mini SD card in my HTC Desire S as it kept unmounting. Following advice from work colleagues and forums, I transferred all my stored memory from the mini SD card to my laptop. I then reformatted the mini SD card and reloaded all the files back onto it. I have since discovered that nearly all my photo's and videos (Around 440) have come back as thumbnails and this is also true of the copy made onto my laptop before reformatting. Have I lost these photos for good? or is there a way of restoring them??? Help!

I don't think you lost your pictures. Same thing happened to my phone. I brought it to the HTC Service Center and they upgraded the software. I suggest you take it to the nearest HTC Service Center so the problem can be resolved.

Htc rhyme wont recognize sd card

Try the SD card in your computer, see if it is corrupted. If not, copy the files off of it and then re-format it - then try it in your phone.
If that does not work, try a fresh SD card in the phone (maybe borrow one?)
If that fails too, it may well be that the internal SD card reader in the phone has gone bad.

How do i upload pics from my htc hero to my computer

Its in the manual. If you don't have one download it from HTC. It answers a lot of questions. You'll also might need to download HTC sync from their website as well. But you'll need to plug the phone into a usb port with the cable that came with the phone. When the computer sees the phone then you have to unmount the sd card. There will be a notice in the notifications bar on the phone. Just click unmount. it should show up as a drive on the computer. just remember MOUNT the sd card again BEFORE you unplug it from the computer. You could trash the sd card!!

Sd card, or device error when copying music files

If you are trying to play the file then it will be unmounted as it needs to disconnect from the pc to do that you could try copying them in batches if that doesnt work it may be a USB driver fault in which case i would reccomend reinstalling the G1 driver.
