Hi,
I am a n00b in regards to P500, but I used to have an LG GT540 which pretty much similar.
Anyway, I got my P500 yesterday and installed the V10B ROM with arabic support through KDZ. All went fine. I rooted with Z4Root and also all went fine. The probelm now is that the phone restarts every few hours without doing any thing. I mean sometimes when its in my pocket, others wen it is just laying there on the table.
Is that a hardware issue or a ROM issue?
Any help appreciated.
Jst rewipe and reflash and chk again
Got that fixed by changing the SD card. I had a class 4 8GB Kingston that seemed to cause this by the "SD card unexpectedly removed" error and causing the phone to freze and restart.
I changed it to a class 10 card and the problem stopped. 12 hours now without the restart or the "sd card unexpectedly removed" issue. I will test more and report here.
Class 4 sd cards unmount when the phone tries to write something to the card. There is no problem with reading data from the cards. I have the same problem but I can't buy a new card now and as long as I don't write anything to the card the phone will not restart. Thank goodness I dont have a 3g connection.

Had the device for a few weeks now. Randomly the sd card was dismounted. No biggie, was able to mount it with a remove/insert or reboot.
Suddenly today it isn't possible to find, mount or read anything from it.
Can't read it through an usb-stick in the pc either. So the only possible reason is either a bad sd-card? Or the hero destroyed it?
Edit: This was a none branded 6 class 8gb. So my advice is to stay away from the bulk cards.
Back up all your stuff - which fortunately I had done
Exactly the same thing has happened to me 8gig class 6 etc. now unreadable -- interested in the reponse / cure suggestions from others on the site.
Well,well. I have a 16gb Sandisk card. Has been running perfectly in a Touch HD. Now is running in my Hero.
Turned on the phone this morning and it wants to format it. Lost alot of my photos so now I am worried.
This has never happend to me before with a quality card
If you can format it, it will still be accessible.
This has just happened to me. 8gb class 6 unbranded card is not recognised by the phone so I can't format.
It has happened in the past, but i could format, or restarting fixed it.
Any ideas, will trying over and over fix it?
My new 8gb trendmicro card keeps on unmounting after a couple of minutes. Any idea whats wrong? Faulty card or hero bug?

Same happend to me today with a ScanDisk 8GB class 2 card
Possibly it's a specification/compability problem, perhaps something related about hybernation specification.
I have two Nokia SDHC 8G cl6 absolutly incompatible. When the phone going to sleep, at 3-4 min sd is unrecognizable and megacrash ... A2SD is very unstable and when I had formatting all with FAT32, crash with bad structure file system in hybernation mode, loss data,......
The Chaos.
I will try with Kigston 8G cl6, I have good references about on it.
NOKIA never more...

Sorry for my english
Hi,
I got my Optimus one not long ago and I bought kingston 8G for it though it would work fine. The phone read the card well and show the memory correct and I can use it pretty good on my phone. The thing later I found out is the phone itself restart after the idle time exceed 1hr which is crazy. The phone works really good until I upgrade my original sd card (samsung 2G which came in with) to Kingston microsd 8G. I don't know where exactly is wrong, and I couldn't return the sd card either since it work fine on both phone and on computer with card reader. If someone got same problem with me, please let me know or help me out!! Thanks in advance.
I think it is a firmware problem,Mine and others do the same with the standart 2G card...
Firmware keeps updating itself when I go on WIFI connection. I don't know about these stuffs either. But now, the problems are ended..the phone doesn't read any card anymore whether 2G or 8G, it keeps saying that "sd card removed. Insert a new one". I've tried restart again & again but the message doesn't go away and my phone decide not to recognize the card.Both of the cards work fine on computer. I think I need to visit the shop where I bought to check on it. Btw, is that problem considered in the warranty case? I don't know.. It wasn't even a month with me. So sad!

Are you using any app2sd ? If yes, it could be a problem also if ur using an app storing data on your SD card. It makes you're cell restart.
I have the "mount / unmount" problem on my LG, I saw on a french forum that it was better to try with another file system, sometimes it was solving, sometimes not. I don't think it's really a card problem, I gave my LG GW620's sd to my girlfrend and her old samsung is using it without any problem's, but on mine it was crashing every 30mins....

I have the same problem but more problem when my LG O1 didn't recognize the card and I couldn't mount or format the card on my phone.
This happened when I partitioned the card. My PC still sees the card well but my phone doesn't.
I read a lot of posts from a lot of forums and I did try every guides steps by steps but it seemed as the LG O1 doesn't have any button-press-combination as others. For ex: when I pressed Back + Power On, nothing happened as It was said that the phone might come to FastBoot.
As help on this issue will be in much appreciated.
I fixed it. If your PC still recognizes the sd card, it's ok. Go to Manage (right click on My Computer) -> Device Management -> Storage -> you should see your card there. Try to delete volumn or format the EXT2 and Linux Swap.
Put the card back to your phone. It should recognize the card and then, unmount and format card and mount it back. Done.
I have a small question. What is the best class for this phone? The class 10 is fully used by phone or does not reach that read/write speed? Some micro sd class 10 are declared between 20 and 30 MB/S. The p500 has these capabilities? Or a Class 6 card is enough?
Thanks
UP!
The price for 32GB class 6 is very different from class 10.
Lg Optimus One is able to full use write/read speed of class 10?
Thanks
Help! I inserted a sandisk 4gb class 4 and my phone didn't recognized it (i got the 'SD card removed. Insert a new one.' notification). Then, i inserted back the original 2gb sd card from the box, but that notification is still there and it can't be recognized. But both my PC and a another android device (a galaxy tab) can detect it. So, i tried formatting both the 4gb and the original 2gb with the galaxy tab and inserted it to my O1 but nothing has changed. I tried updating to the official V10E firmware but it makes no diffrences. Any help please?

For future, don't remove SD card during phone is running because of app moved to SD card. Especially when you plan insert new one, and if you do that with custom ROM with app2sd its equivalent to suicide.
Is mass storage mode works? Is MS works in curstom recovery? Did you try format memory card in phone? Delete of caches?

Thx for the reply,
I haven't install a custom ROM yet. All i did was enable JIT+HW accel from a thread here.
1. Mass storage didn't work. It just appears as a new drive which i can't access.
2. I updated my O1 to V10E... I lost root, custom recovery,etc. so i can't try that
3. I formated it with another android device (a galaxy tab)
4. How do you delete the caches???? Sorry, new here
You had got me. For now I have not idea how to proceed.
Anyway, remove battery, remove SD card, clean sd card with some soft cloth, check if metal contacts looks fine (try clean that if not), insert SD card, insert battery and try it again.
If this not help, you can try some shaking and so on. It's sounds crazy, but I know one guy whose shaking helped him to flash firmware to phone, which not works at all. Maybe it's some cheats for all these issues.
ad 4) You can delete caches via custom recovery, but related to 2) you can't so, this hint is useless.
I did everything u said. I checked the SD card & the slot and they seem ok.
This might sound dumb, but what do you mean by 'shaking'? Which part are you suppose to shake?? Sorry, im still new to androids
BTW, i went to the LG customer care. The technician checked it and said that they are going to replace the SD card slot. She said that sparepart (the SD card slot) is going to arrive sometime in mid-January due to the holidays.
By the shake I mean grab phone and do quick movements with phone from left to right and back.
But it seems, that you have some trouble with hardware part(s) of phone.
Hello,
I'm a new owner of a phone with android, since a month ago. The problem with my phone is that some time ago it started rebooting about 2 times per day (in some cases rebooting even I'm not touching it)
I tried removing almost all applications and didn't work (the first app was task killer since I read that's not needed).
One thing that may be helping the phone rebooting itself is that some times I see this notification: "SD card removed unexpectedly".
I have a 8gb class 2 card. But I tried with a 4gb class 4 card and same message appear. I tried formating both cards and didn't work.
Anyone can please help?
Best regards,
Pedro
and my P500 do a restart the card SD (2GB, which was from the market) and probably due to the firmware of the LG (it has a .10 b) so I expect the update from LG that fixes the problem

thousands of us are facing this problem. LG are idiots to have released the phone with such a glaring defect.
But also thousands of us doesn't have any problems with this. It's really strange and you can not say, that LG is idiots - maybe everything works before on testing. Maybe some factory failed in collecting, maybe some wrong series of components... maybe.... who knows.
One think is true - they should face up to problems and not do, that nothing happened.
So the only thing that I can do, is wait for an software update from LG? (perhaps android 2.3 resolve it?)

I doubt whether this is related to software, since other phones don't face this issue. The phone has crashed several times at the end of a call, and I couldn't even press the disconnect button. When the phone doesn't even be stable and do the basic phone features properly, nothing else matters.
I also had this problem.
SanDisk 8GB cl2: reboot 2-3 times daily. Best 1% / hour battery.
SanDisk 2GB cl2: remount frequently. 1% / hour battery.
Original card that came 2GB(Samsung?):NO reboot,NO remount, 2% / 8 hours (night) battery!!!
My sd card didn't remove but the device some times start a reboot, and after a few seconds it enter on the phone (after the text ANDROID when i can see the desktop), when the phone signs he's mounting the sd, the phone goes on reset again and do this for several times, and i can't acess to the device. Some times he works normally.
I tryied to start the device without the sd but when he resets he still reset even without sd, so i don't think this isn't a sd question.
Some one else have this problem?
I update to the v10b by lg suite yesterday. I dont have the random reboot problem anymore for the last 24 hr. and I play pocket legend and like ever 2 hours the phone must reboot with the v10a. Now I am very happy with the v10b. no reboot for the game playing but i felt the graphic is little bit slower than v10a. and I am also factory reset my phone after update. So I can tell is it because the firmware or some software on the card or the root causing the reboot. But I am sure I am a happy pocket legends player. I am also using my old nokia 8g class 4 sd card with the original sd back up.
After I update to v10n, I've been runing android whitout rebooting and unmounting for about 125 hours (and growing).
I can say the software solved the problem because im using same card and I didn't factory either the phone or card.
My software version is already v10b by default but I'm still experiencing this "sd card removed" problem plus my phone also reboots it self rarely...
I've read threads about this problem and they recommend updating the software to v10e...
I contacted LG about this: It seems that the reboot bug is SIM-card related. Here in germany, Eplus (and their retailers) SIM-cards seem to be affected.
hi after updating to 2.2.1 v10n i dont have sd card error and reboots that often but sometimes i cant see the apps installed on the sd card. has anyone noticed this too? after remounting the sd card i can again see the apps and can access them but it keeps on appearing and its quite annoying! plz help!
i have both problems rebooting sd card and disappearing apps
i also have v10n

Based on my experience, I'd say the reboot is triggered by the unexpected sd card removal after moving apps to the sd card. Until I've seen some working prove, I'd assume the idea with SIM-cards is just another theory.

I have the phone from late october and experimented a lot with this problem.
In my case it only happen if I move some apps on the sdcard, if I don't move any apps on the sd card, no reboot happens. Also it seem more frequent when data connection is not "stable".
Some user reported they were able to turn around the problem keeping wifi on all the time, but it is a solution I like
In the last couple of months I used the phone with all the apps on phone memory and never had the problem again...
I got this phone a week ago and it's been rebooting ever since.. I even updated to v10f and now it says something about the SD Card after reboot and the SD card wont work after that.. so I have to reboot manually for the SD card to become active again... this phone is nothing but headache... but I'm still happy with it..
Do custom ROM's also reboot randomly?
you need atleast a class 4 sd card, im using class 4 16 gb sandisk. Absolutely no problems at all.

Hi friends i am from India and i bought Lg p500 from a store. I have a problem mobile handset freezes on using Wireless + any of the application like in built face book.It depends some time it freezes with in 5 minute or some time after 15 minutes Android logo comes and then sometimes reboot. Any body who can help me out .Because i have done Modding to some of my old Linux Phones ?
Here is my phone software information:
android version-2.2.1
Kernel version -2.6.32.5 lg-electronicscssi-rd10-ubld06
help?
Are you having an issue with the SD card?
Do you get an "SD card unexpectedly removed" notification sometimes?
If so, this issue mught cause the occasional restarts and freezes. My advice is that you should change the SD card with a class 6 or class 10 SDHC.
nope not with sd card it's just fresh micro sd 8 gb transcend bought it today and is totaly empty. I think i should update with lg Updater
try using your phone without an sd card. if it still restarts then take it to service center.
Nothing happens friends After removal of sd card.i installed skyfire from android market then what after 2minutes of installation ! bang again that android ugly logo frezzes nothing working even after upgrading software via Lg Mobile Update .again have to remove my battery Just bought this phone today morning and such a wastefull experience was my first Lg phone and was worst hope Lg Customer care will support tomorrow .....
Hi friends, i have an htc m8 for 5 months or so stock and non rooted , and Im using 64gb class 10 sandisk sd card. So after updating to lollipop i have been getting these errors frequently and i have to restart the handset to fix it temporarily. I had this issue on kitkat as well but happened only rarely like once a month or so.
These two things happened unfortunately,
1) i had dropped my phone on carpet from 2 feet after lollipop update. I wonder if the phone couldn't handle it! But restarting the phone resolves the issue temporarily so i dont recon its a hardware issue?
2) i removed the sd card without unmounting it from settings and immediately got the error and kept happening after that. would this have corrupted the lollipop os or the card. Although card works fine in another handset.
so i am confused what caused the issue. Is the connector loose or what is the problem. this is very annoying!
I have formated sd card, reset handset to factory settings and tried another sd card and still the same issue. sd card is detected on the pc. Happens with transcend sd card as well. Please advise i am confused. Is there a possibilty that a certain file in the lollipop OS may be corrupted or its just a bug in lollipop? And does the phone requires a reflash from
the service center?
