man, i understand your concerns. dont get me wrong. you got to look at it like this. every phone will have something wrong. and you will always have updates to fix that. this phone (touch) is looking pretty darn good for a "first ship ROM" and will only be looking better in the future. if the users here dont figure something out i'm am sure HTC/SPrint will. think about it. sprint's biggest concern is for you to buy there music. if the device has a storage card then it has to be stored there. if the sd card is a problem, people might quite buying music. that is something sprint really doesn't want to happen. as soon as sprint finds out about this bug they will be all over htc for a fix.

Well, as I mentioned above my replacement Touch hasn't experienced the problem we were having. I can tell you by the reaction that I got from the guys at the store that they did not know about this problem and it was listed as a known issue. I'm just hoping that my original one was defective and that it won't happen on the new one. I really do love this phone and it's been as close to the perfect phone as it can be for me...except for the storage card. Hopefully, it was just a defective phone.

BTW...I thought about the iPhone for about 2 seconds and then laughed it off!

Have you tried taking your Touch into the store or have you not been experiencing the issue with your files disappearing anymore?

EDIT: Disregard the last part. Didn't see your post above...

this just happened to me again.. usually when it happens I can reboot and it's back.. this time... no data

(or rather corrupted data)

Pocket mechanic found a bunch of lost clusters/discarded...

I could not get into my messaging program on my phone to check my gmail and yahoo mail.

my messages are set to save to my sd card.

I poped out the card and i was able to access my messaging, pop it back in and i cant get to the messaging.

formated the card on my computer, had a problem the first few times, had a corrupt inbox folder.

finally formatted it, then formatted it on my touch with pocket mechanic.

PS. I have a sandisk 4gb hdsd card.

Sounds like the touch has an issue with the sd card and messaging.

Hopefully i dont have any more problems

Yep, happened to me again for the second time this morning. Couldn't open Messaging, with attachments set to save to card. Read somewhere else that deleting the Inbox folder on the card fixes the issue, and lets you change the settings to save to the unit. This worked for me. Hopefully Sprint will address this problem. I see it as the only major issue with the Touch right now, and I have been using mine for over a week.

I just have my files disappeared. every one except my music folder and a WMDRM folder that keeps coming back every time i delete it.

Is sprint aware of this problem?

I'm at a customer this week - and my micro-sd got corrupted taking my gps maps with it - it caused me quite a bit of a headache to get there without my gps maps!

the same thing happens to me... i sync my music with media player and a day after i see and the whole memory card is deleted with 4 files named kjihikh; jhohiol; hdofiah; or some sort of thing like that. i try to reset the phone last night and this morning the card was deleted. so that didn't help.. also my phone keep going to silent mode for some reason, i did installed ringo an application to be used to set ringtones... would that have anything to do with it?
anyone that might have a solution to this please drop me a line!

I figured out that I had a theme on the sd card and that seemed to be causing problems with me. Since I movbed it to main mem, no probs. Nonetheless I am a bit leery about starting the nightly backups as it seems if you write to a corrupt card, its gone, whereas if you dont write a reset fixes it, so i just run a backup everyfew days after I check to make sure card isnt corrupt

I'm still experiencing issues with my replacement Touch. With the replacement though, it comes back after a soft reset luckily. However, it happens AT LEAST once a day (it's happened twice today already). Really frustrating!

The storage card issue is a confirmed bug, HTC will release a fix in january for this issue. The problem with this bug is it is hard to repeat. I hav ehad my touch for a few weeks without ant issues and all of a sudden I went into resco to look at a file on my SD and there it was folders and files corrupted.
