I have had the same thing, changed from a 8gb card to a 16gb lexar card from play.com. I copied all the files from the 8gb to the 16gb.
Turned the phone on did exactly what you described, turned it off and back on and everything worked. I tested the lexar card before i used it, it gave no errors.
Restarted the phone again, had the problem again, turned off and back everything worked.
This was yesterday, justed restarted the phone, all ok.
Mine is a stock orange uk phone.
How do i check the card from where can i get the tester
I used H2testw.

I connected my HD2 to my laptop using activesync, then when I opened explorer on the PC to go to the /StorageCard directory, found that it wasn't there. So, I tried exploring to the directory in the HD2, but found that it couldn't see the card. I've shutdown the phone, taken out the MicroSD card, and hooked the MicroSD card up directly to my laptop, and it appears just fine, and I can copy/write to the card without issues. I've tried cleaning the contacts, and putting it back in the phone, but the HD2 still doesn't see the card.
Anyone else have this happen to them before? Any hints on what else I can try?
BTW, it's a Kingston 16GB MicroSD card, and it's been working reliably without any issue until today.
Right.. I tried putting in a newly formatted 2GB MicroSD card, and the HD2 was able to see it without problem. So I'm now backing up stuff from my 16GB Kingston MicroSD, and will probably re-format it to see if that will help.. Just a big hassle having to backup/copy back almost 15GB of stuff from the card..
During the backup process, there were a few files on the MicroSD that couldn't be read, so, could it be that the card is going bad?
OK. Finally finished backing up the MicroSD card, and reformatted it. After reformatting, the HD2 now SEEs the newly formatted card, I only have to copy stuff back onto the card, then I'm done..
I'll probably end up going out to buy a new card tomorrow as it's pretty obvious from today's "adventure" that this card is probably on its way out. Oh well, now that I have the data backed up, it should be relatively painless.

i have had to reformat my card once because I accidently removed my phone from the PC without using "safely remove hardare" (aka right click and select eject) feature. formatted the card and restored from backup and all is well again.
Done! Copied files from backup to 16GB MicroSD, and the HD2 sees it.
There were altogether 4 unreadable/corrupted files from the MicroSD card when backing it up, but fortunately, none of these files were irreplaceable, luckily, as all these were MP3 songs, which I also have other copies on my laptop.
Tomorrow, I will take a look to see how much the new Sandisk 32GB MicroSD card is selling for here in Hong Kong. If it's not TOO expensive, I may end up buying one to replace the 16GB Kingston I'm using now. I remember reading somewhere that the HD2 is supposed to be compatible with up to 32GB, but has anyone actually tried the new Sandisk 32GB card in an HD2?
I've had a similar issue with my 16 GB Sandisk card. Strangely, my old TyTn II could read it absolutely fine - but my HD2 couldn't :/
Only way i found to fix it was to format it, then copy all the stuff back.
It's happened twice now and it's pretty annoying!

I've been using a 32Gb Sandisk since June this year, with no problems. I've got about 27Gb on the card.

Well today i rebooted my phone and after it turned back on, it told me my SD card was damaged and needed reformat. I insert it into a computer and it couldn't read the card. So i reformat it.
After copying my music and maps, it corrupted twice more!
I'm trying to figure out if it's my phone or SD card dying. Been having problems with signal loss with my phone lately also [sort of confirmed to be a phone problem]
SD card is a Generic 16GB Class 2 [Came with the phone out of the box]
Thanks,
Tim

I had the same problem with a 8gb Kingston class 4 card. I couldn't trust it if my life depended on it. Bought a new card, never had a problem since. If you have any other cards laying around, try using one of those first, or maybe you can get one from a friend. If they work fine, then just buy a new card as you will know your phone is ok.
Signal loss does happen, but I don't think it would be any way related to your memory card.
Yeah i have a 8GB Lexor Class 4 card lying around, just seems like so little space. I'll try that first though. Maybe i could get Rogers to just give me a replacement SD card... yeah...
Signal loss, it just happens around once every other day, dropped calls, no service for a second or so and comes back on. Even when i just leave it on the table on speakerphone it drops [areas with decent signal]. It's not with the network, it's most likely with the phone [talked to tech support] as i think i've told you before
But yeah i know it's not related to the memory card issue, was just an actual issue with the phone -_-"

Little space or not, try it out before you purchase a 16gb or 32gb card and realize your phone is messed right?
However, I think you will find the lexor card will be ok and your phone is fine
I replaced the 8gig SD card that came with the phone and put in my 16 gig SD card I had in my EVO 4G. At first it didn't take so i removed everything, formatted the SD card then only loaded music onto it. This morning the card keeps unmounting. I have tried restarting and have made sure there is no dust on the contacts. And yes it is in correctly. Any suggestions? Anyone else having this issue?
My SD card died completely after having similar problems. Around 12 hours after I received phone. Went to sprint store and they gave me new one.
make sure it's a class 4 SD card

Ok. So I read another thread where someone was having SD card problems, but they're not the same as what's happening to me.
The microSD slot is working fine. I have an 8gb class 4 in there.
The dock SD slot isn't working right. I have a 32gb class 10 in it.
Symptoms:
If I pull the card from the dock and transfer files to it, it seems to be functional. However if I connect the dock via USB cable I am unable to transfer files to/from it...it's almost like the SD card is losing connection with the tablet. Anyone else had an issue with the dock's SD card slot?
Is the SD card actually OK? How long have you had it? I bought one when I bought my TFP a few weeks ago. Worked fine with my PC but not in the TFP. It was a Sandsk 32gb. There is a link on Sandisk's site to a test utility (not theirs). It reported the card as 'faulty'. Actually, it was a fake. Full refund later and I bought one elsewhere. That worked.
Called H2testw 1.4.

Yeah, I've used a couple of different cards. I have a Patriot 32gb class 10 that I know to be good, and it's fresh out of the box. Already reformatted it and checked for errors before I posted.
I'm having problems with my dock's sd card slot also. I've tried a 2GB card, 1GB card, and a 4GB micro sd+adapter. None of them worked. The transformer doesn't seem to "see" them at all. No 'preparing storage' message, nothing appears in file manager, no sign of the sd card at all. They all work in my laptop. I've tried FAT, FAT32, and NTFS but no luck.
I've tried 2 different USB flash drives and they both worked fine. I just purchased the dock a couple weeks ago, and the transformer a couple months ago (serial B80*)
Is anyone else having the issue where the SD Card randomly unmounts itself and then remounts? I have already wiped and reformatted the card with the Note2 but the issue is still present. any solutions or answers?
I have the Tmobile version, but I have the same issue. I even did a full format of the card on my pc, but it made no difference. The card sort of works, but sometimes instead of the 'preparing sd card' I get the 'blank or unrecognized file system', and then I have to wait for the phone to go to sleep. It will usually wake up and recognize the card then, but all links to files on the card are broken. FYI, my card is a SanDisk 32GB Class 4. I tried an older 8GB card and did not have the issue, but then again, my 32GB card worked for a month with no issues. Very perplexed.

I have a Sandisk Ultra 32GB card. I only have music on it which I've only tested out a couple times, but never had this issue pop up at any point. Perhaps it is the format of the card? I do not remember reformatting mine before putting stuff on it. If you can, try testing another card or putting yours in another device to see if it's the card itself.
I had a 32GB Class 6 Sandisk Ultra, which was also used and worked perfectly in my GS3.
I went to my verizon store had my phone replaced.. threw the SD card back in, and it still had the issue. Put a normal 16 GB SD card in it, haven't had the issue yet. So I guess somewhere in the process of switching between my GS3 and the Note2 the card somehow got corrupted or broke??
Looks like I'll be buying a 64GB class 10 card soon lol
