Formating N82 Memory Card

Hi guys,
I installed an app (MovingBall_Example.sisx) on my N82 onto the memory card. The app installed two file. the MovingBall app as well as a RDAccelerometer.dll file. This app designed for the N95's but i thought it will work fine on the N82.
On the first run of the app, it opened and ran for awhile then crashed. i restarted the phone and it hung on the nokia's white screen for ages. I then restarted it a again after removing the battery, but no luck. It will only work if the memory card is removed.
I've had a look on the card, and it seems that some folders and files are corrupted. I have made a copy of the memory card and want to reformat it. What format should i reformat it to and what folders can i safely put back?
I've got the following folders :
-cities -- (Navigation folder)
-Images,videos,sounds,other (Default storage)
-Resource
-Sys
The corrupt files are in sys\uninstall...is it safe to delete items from this folder?
Also, should I touch the sisregistery folder at all?
If I remove all traces the MovingBall_0xE14A45B8.exe & RDAccelerometer.dll from the \bin & \resource will it be okay?
Thanks

Hi Hempiz,
If i were you its best to format the entire card and not just deleting certain files.
If its corrupt and you leave files on there the problems will probably still remain or return.
Its worth biting the bullet and formatting the whole card.

N81: "Memory full" even formatted the memory card

Hi.
Using N81, I get the "Memory full. Delete some data" message every time (when turning on the mobile, when trying to install any app, when trying to uninstall any app, ...).
I've formatted the memory card, and I've got:
- Capacity: 1947 MB
- Used: 1 MB
- Free: 1946 MB
but continue getting the same error.
Any similar experience? I reset the mobile (*#7370# and *#7780#) but I don't experience any change (I've deleted the time and settings, but not the memory issues).
Thank you very much in advance.

Hi bilbaow,
Thank you for your post.
What I recommend you try is to re-installing your firmware and see if this make a difference. You can do this via Nokia suite through tools and update.
If after this is still isn't working when you did a hard reset (*#7370#) did you back and restore? If you did do the hard reset but don't restore, do still experience the same issue?

You should have because that's how to do it on FP2 phones such as the N78 and N96.

Go into the "Memory card" section, then:

How do i format a memory card on my mac?

I don't get a choice to format the sd card (actually via an adapter I plug into the USB port that holds various memory cards) - not sure if formating the sd card would actually eliminate the virus, but thought I'd try... The card is infected with a "conficker" virus, which Sophos can't remove. I have eliminated all the files, and there still is like 55 unviewable files.

Disk Utility. The same way you format any type drive on a Mac.

the only thing supplied on the memory card is nokia maps, how this can be downloaded from this site.
gives you instructions how to reinstall the maps if you wish to do so http://europe.nokia.com/A4984199, apart from hat there is 1 or 2 video/music files and that's it.

I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and format the memory card in my helmet cam?

I have recently changed to an iMac from a Windows PC. How do I delete files and reformat the memory card in my helmetcam?

If you return the memory card to the helmetcam, it may choose to reformat it before use; back to some FAT-16 or FAT-32 format many of these third-party cards and cameras use. Unless you were going to use it for Mac OS X and format it with HFS+ or in a partition map for Mac data, etc.
If not, the easiest way to reformat the card may have been in the camera itself. I've formatted several kinds of camera cards, drives, USB flash drive, and others. The means varies with the intended purpose. Sometimes the default is the best; since it is platform neutral if the device is seen by both players.
Good luck & happy computing!

N82 memory card problem

Hey guys had my phone since 5th of Jan, has been fine no problems.
Last night I changed where to store my sent messages to the memory card instead of on the phone.
After I sent my first message it asked me to remove the memory card and press ok. I thought this was a bit strange but as it wouldn't let me do anything else I did as I was told.
I replaced the memory card and it carried on working. Now every so often even if the phones keylocked and nothing running it pops up and asks me to remove the memory card. If I leave it and don't remove the card the message goes away.
This might only be slightly annoying but I have had nokias with software faults before and they start off as annoying and then become serious.
Any advice?

No... I should of said the phone changed it back to "store on phone" when it tried to store it on the card and couldn't do.
So now even when I'm not trying to access the card for any purpose it pops up.
For example. Left phone on keys locked over night, woke up and checked phone and as soon as I unlocked the keypad the message came up.
Also when trying out the n-gage demos which as far as I know have nothing to do with the memory card it closed the demo and asked me to remove the card.

Accidentally Formatted N80 Memory Card

I recently formatted my N80 and realize that there is some hidden folders in the memory that contain applications (sudoku...hotspot)......is there any way in getting these files back? I purchased this phone in Hong Kong.

Providing the card hasn't been written to too many times, the following maybe of help:

How to format Memory card in N79 and 5630 Xpressmu...

Hi everyone,
I am using N79 amd 5630 Xpressmusic. Can any body tell me how to format the memory card in these sets. Coz in file manager there is no option to format memory card.
Regards

Hi Sappal,
To format the memory card follow the below procedure:
1. Go to "File Manager-> Memory Card" (I've named the memory card as N79).
2. You will need to open the memory card and then go to its "Options" menu.
3. Go to "Memory Card Options-> Format" and confirm.
Please note that the memory card will not get formatted unless every application is closed and you have not installed any third party applications on it. For this, you will have to uninstall any third party applications and only then proceed with the memory card formatting procedure.
Let me know if you need any assistance. My id is

There is no solution. If you formatted the card, the data is gone, purely and simply.
Sorry, but there is no solution. You'll have to think twice before formatting the card next time.

Nokia 6288 Memory Card Formatted

I have accidentally formatted my memory card and lost all the data. I have bought my phone in Dubai and I am now in Manila. Can anyone help me how to have the same data by sending me a link or zip file of it? Thanks!

Muhammad,
Bring your phone to a Nokia Service Center and ask them if they can load the "Preloaded Files"on your memory card.
You can also call the Nokia CareLine for technical assistance.

Help to format memory card (Nokia 5300)

Hi everyone.
I have a problem with my Nokia 5300. The problem occurred about two weeks ago and then escalates up to today, where it now has gone all bad.
The problem is my memory card. I haven’t changed it, so it is the original card that came with the phone.
It started with, that my phone couldn’t find my memory card. Then I had to shut down the phone and start it up again. It worked.
But now, I can’t get my phone to see the card. I’ve tried to take the card out of the phone and then inserted it again.
When I do that, the phone can see the card, but when I try to enter it, it says that the card isn’t formatted and therefore can’t be accessed.
According to the Nokia 5300 manual, I’ve to enter the memory card to format it – so it’s quite a paradox. I would like to back my card up, but that doesn’t seem to be a possibility.
Is there a way to format the memory card or is there someone with a explanation and/or a solutions to this problem? It’s really frustrating.
I just updated my phone, so the newest version of the software is installed. I’ve backup my contacts, messages and calendar – and some of the pictures from my memory card. I could access it in the beginning of the backup / update, but suddenly it disappeared.
Thanks

The best thing to do is to get a replacement.Message Edited by nj15 on 16-Aug-200703:48 PM

Formatting Memory Cards

Phone is 5800 Xpress
When formatting a memory card , applications installed on the card itself will no longer be accessable
Is that equal to uninstalling each app using the traditional uninstall methods
Thanks

No.
When you uninstall an application, the files making up the application are indeed removed, as are other pieces of information in the phone's settings sorted on C:.
If you just reformat the memory card, you will be removing the application's files, but you will be leaving the other information in the phone's settings intact, thus orphaning it in a sense.
If you want to format a memory card containing applications then uninstall those applications first. This is the "cleaner" way of going about it.

Formatting Memory Card

My memory card has worked 100% fine since I got my phone, now all of a sudden it says "A memory card has been inserted that is not formatted, please format the memory card"   How do I fix it? I dont want to lose all my pictures

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
They may already be lost. But, to be sure, you should remove the card from your BB and use a card reader on a PC to be sure.
Good luck!

Not able to Delete the data from Memory card

Hi all,
I have bought a new nokia 3120 classic.it is working fine but recently i have received some data from my friend.
Then suddenly the problem begins like.. when i take a photo.. i am getting error like the image is not in the format and i am not able to save that.And also, the main problem is I am unable to delete the data from my memory card.
Every time after deleting i am getting the same data.
Why this happening..is it because of VIRUS?? If so how to delete the virus from my memory card??
When i contacted the nokia care people in bangalore they are saying that they can offer the service of formatting the memory card??
Except that my Phone is working fine..the problem is with Memory card!!!
Please help me...

you can actually format your memory card first see if you have such option on your phone to format directly from the phone if that is not possible you can always use a card reader and reformat your card using your pc. just understand that all data from that memory card will be lost unless you do a back up of it. if you do a back up and restore the data to the memory card after reformat you might get the same issue so be careful as to what you will decide to do with the data from the card. once you format your card it should all be good unless the card is corrupted itself which can also happen. but first try with the reformat and see if it works out for you.
