Hello,
I had installed co-pilot on my phone and got it to work as of yesterday. However, I just inserted an SD card today and for some odd reason I can no longer open co-pilot.
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling co-pilot, but can't seem to get it to work. Can someone help?

Hi all, I have gained lot's of valuable info from this forum, so I thought I would give some info back.
I have read about load of people having problems with data disappearing from their SD cards.
I have owned a XDA 1 for just over 1 year and have used it with a Toshiba 512Mb SD card without a single problem. I have stored data on it, deleted data, defragged, MP3s, films you name it no probs at all.
Then I installed SKYPE Version 2.0.0.39. I know you are supposed to have WIFI for Skype but I just wanted to check out the software.
Anyway enough of that the point is, about 2 days later I was watching a film off the storage card, 15 minutes into it the device went into an audio loop and required a soft reset. After trying to resume with the film I found out the storage card was completly empty no files at all :evil: It may just be a coincidence but I think the SKYPE was responsible. I know oter people have reported similar storage probs.
Missing data on SD Memory Card
I've had it happen a couple times, and I don't use Skype.
The first time it was the card itself. The last couple times, I was able to restore the information on the card with the Backup Utility.
I think it's a bug in the device, damn frustrating, too.
As with most any computer, you better be backing up regularly!
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
Has anyone had problems with the Storage Card completely dying? I cannot read my 1GB miniSD card on my Wizard device at all any more. It started being weird yesterday but after a reset I was able to access the data, but today it is totally gone.
A 16MB one works fine. :? These cards don't generally die that easily do they?
I think it's what they call SD wipeout. I've experienced the same problem a number of times already.. the only solution ive found is to ensure my sd card is in write protect before i insert in on my unit. its really frustrating..

What I do about this
I turned my Card's ''Write Protect" on. I think it might be a good way.
I Have the some problem with my O2 XDAmini
SanDisk SD 1G
Me too. I had an experience of having the SD card (512MB Kingston) completely wiped, and another experience of partial (just the 'Program Files') directory. I can't remember that I've did on the 1st one, but as for the second wipe (partial), I'm trying out a new software that is installed in my SD card, however, I guess the software is not WM5 compatible and I have to had it uninstalled. I did a two soft-reset in the midst of the program running (e.g. hanged). Later I tried uninstall it, but not successful, so I just went into the card and delete it using Explorer. Then later, I've noticed all of the icons of programs installed in the SD are 'gone', only then I realised that my 'Program Files' folder was wiped.
I'm not sure how to prevent this problem, but now, I tried to had my card out before I do any soft-reset, especially in times where software hangs.
Probably it is good if all of us just try to recall the events just before you've experience a SD wipe out, probably we will find some pattern to this.
I have recently purchased a 32gb micro sd card. When I go to put new music on it, it shows from the pc side that it is loading on the external drive(g2 phone) and form the phone it says that it is on there. However when I disconnect the phone only the last album that I put on there stays and the music player will state that "this type of file cannot be played". I have formatted the card through the computer and to no avail, it acts the same.. I did format it on the Android and it worked, temporarily and could load music from my computer for a few days, then it stopped. I am clueless as to what is going on with it. p.s. I tried placing it in a card reader and it did the same, but i did not format it first that time. I seem to think the android is placing a bad file on it causing all these issues. (again I say this because when I format it through the phone it will work temorarilly) any help would be great, I really want toload my phone with music.

Hi there,
It sounds like you might not actually be utilizing your SD card when connecting to a computer and instead are attempting to load your music directly to the internal phone memory.
Make sure after you connect your phone to your computer via USB that you put your phone in "Disk Drive" mode by dragging down your notification bar and selecting your connection type. Without selecting this option you will not have access to your SD card when plugging in your phone to a PC. Now when you got to "My Computer" on your PC you should see your SD Memory card in addition to "g2phone"
Let me know if you need further help
I'm relatively certain you bought a fake card. A few months ago I was shopping for one myself. I bought 3 different cards, all counterfeit, so I just threw down $100 to get my favorite brand, Lexar, and haven't had any problems since.
The exact problem you seem to be describing is a kind of technology that provides computers with a false amount of flash storage. When it is filled, and then used, only the true space of the card survives, which is why everything else disappears.
If you want to test the quality of the card for yourself, use h2testw 1.4. It is free, and while having a strange name, it is easy to use. You'll know in no time whether you've been scammed or not.
I have checked the card with h2test and it states that it does have 32 gigs on it but that the card is corrupt, I have formatted the quick way with sd formatter. What puzzles me is that at one time I was able to load more on it and now I cannot. I feel that there is a fix, I am just not finding it yet.
Hey guys,
I am on Omega v34 and I have a problem with media scanner draining my battery life. Overnight I would lose 60% of my battery life and BBS has pointed it to media scanner wakelocks.
I have tried the rescan media root app from play store, it worked like a charm for the first few days with no problem at all and battery life was improved substantially. However since yesterday whenever I unlock the phone I will get a notification saying that 'SD card was removed unexpectedly' and it will mount the sd card immediately. It does not seems to affect anything, other than waking up the phone now takes a couple of seconds instead of immediate. However I would still like to find a way to fix this problem.
It definitely has something to do with disabling the media scanner, because after I re-enabled it the sd card is working properly and I did not get the sd card removed notification. As soon as i disabled the scanner, i get the notification again.
I am using Sandisk 32gb class 10, on the disk I have photos from the phone camera, some videos and a folder for titanium backup files.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Sounds like what I have, apart from I have more on my memory card, Sandisk 32gb Class 6. I formatted the card and for a few hours it was fine then it started unmounting and re scanning which drains battery and wakes the phone. Alot of people are having this or similar problems with memory crads so it looks like a samsung fault :/
I had three different memory cards and had the same issues with each of them. I've tried everything - different roms, kernels, customs, stocks - same results. Sometimes started just after I've put the card in, sometimes after couple days. 'SD card removed unexpectedly', 'Preparing SD Card' and finally 'Damaged SD Card, try to format it'. After couple of weeks I gave up, cleaned everything and sent it to my provider for warranty fix (with other issue - details here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2035618).
Phone returned as 'fixed' but nothing changed, card issue was still the same.
On Monday I'll send it again with the same faults. I'll keep you guys update, maybe it helps someone.
Hi, I don't actually own this phone and am asking on behalf of one of my family members.
Recently they were using their phone and one of the apps on the SD card (they were using it at the time) started to run slow. They exited the app and found that the icons of all apps on the SD card reverted to the icon what shows when the SD card is removed. They then rebooted the phone and the first notification they got was that the SD card was unexpectedly removed, they then contacted me and I suggested that they connect it to their computer in an SD card reader, they said that the SD card isn't detected at all. I've looked at it myself and can confirm it isn't working (it doesn't even work in my phone).
Has anybody else experienced this problem with the phone and if so have you been able to fix it?
Has anyone had a similar experience with micro sd cards or google maps offline downloads? Not sure if these two issues are related...First, out the blue a 128 gb Samsung micro sd card was corrupted after several weeks use in V30. Installed a new PNY micro SD card. Then, downloading offline maps to micro SD card was extremely slow..this was over a very fast wifi connection right next to brand new dual band router that has over 90mbps download speeds, it took nearly an hour to download a 500 mb map for example. The downloading also made the V30 freeze several times and crash and reboot. This happened repeatedly different attempts over several days, and reoccurred after a factory reset.

No problems here. Just downloaded maps to SD card without issue (64MB in about 1.5 minutes over cellular). Did you format the SD card in the phone before using it? If you use on device storage for the maps, do they download quicker? If you download over cellular, is it faster than WiFi. Try and isolate whether the issue is the SD card, your WiFi connection or the phone.
The sd card was formatted by the phone before I tried to use it. It does not make sense to me that wifi downloads with a high speed new dual band router would be cripplingly slow. No, I did not try over cellular.
I know this is a rather old thread but I was having a similar issue with my s9 plus. I was downloading to the phones integral memory and the download would just hang. I had the phone in a power saving mode. After I turned this off the download worked. Hope this helps someone else.
