Both my 32gb and 16gb give the following message after applying the 3.5 update. "Removed SD Card".
When I try to connect the TP with my computer I do not get the USB symbol. None of the programs moved to the sd card previously now work.
Please help.
BTW, when I boot into webOs and connect the TP to the computer via usb, all is well.
Hi,
Try this instruction.
When I disconnected the usb cable before i rebooted to CM7, it did not work. When I kept the usb cable connected for the reboot, it works fine for about 10 seconds and then once again says the the SD card is removed.
Running into this exact same issue.
I recently decided to move a majority of my apps (mostly games and larger files) to "SD Card" and am not sure if that is the cause for all of this. When I attempt to move the apps back to the "phone" I'm told that the apps can no longer be located (like they are stuck in some type of purgatory).
Any other suggestions besides that tutorial?

I am sure this has been posted before, i searched and looked at the topics but nothing helped.
I am running Android 2.2 FRG33 on my hd2 and my rom is ChuckyROM GTX + CHT 1.8.5 - 23128
All of a sudden while running android my phone didn't show my SD card (16 gb sandisk micro sdhc). So i took it out and put it back in. Nothing. I switched to windows with the custom rom, but it was still not being recognized. I tried Hard reset, nothing. I don't have a adapter so i can't connect my sd card to my computer. Also when i plug my phone in i don't have the option to mount as a disk drive
Can anyone help me

Did you tray to format your SD?
I just tried it. The sd card was shown in file explorer but then it disappeared. I formatted the sd card again but it wasn't even shown in the file explorer
Come on guys, can anyone help me please ?
Allthough I don't have any experience with Android, I doubt if that's got anything to do with it.
If you look up the posts about this issue, you might get the impression that the HD2 kills Sandisk cards at one point or another.
It did so with mine. I had no other possiblility then to buy a new one
I didn't buy another Sandisk 'cause I wasn't sure which was the culprit.
I'm sorry that I don't have better news for you.
First, check that other cards work in your phone...
Then, if they do, I suggest buying a MicroSD to USB (like £2) and try formatting it on the PC...
I updated my x10 mini to 2.1 yesterday and now everytime i connect phone to PC
and click on Mount USB phone just restarts. Does anyone have the same issue?
although this is not a x10 mini thread, i experience the same problem (with my mini) after upgrade to 2.1. i wonder if it is not because you sync with "my phone explorer"... do you?
Android Commander
Use android commander to transfer files does not require putting into USB mount mode.
Or MyPhoneExplorer.
It used to do that back on the RF...014 firmware.
They seemed to like it so much, that they implemented it again!! lol!
*sent from my X10i
mine does it too. but it happens when i plug the usb cabel to the device so the software above won´t work..any solution?
When you connect phone to PC choose to "charge" after that choose "mount" no restarts
but it restarts just after i plug the cable into the device, i have no time to select one of these options
Have you tried connecting the phone with another computer, usb port or usb cable? If that doesn't work...
Have you tried connecting the cable without the sd card inside?
Try that, if it doesn't restart you know it's the sd card that's causing the problem. If you have an sd card reader (some laptops have them) put it in and copy your important files and format the sd card to fat32. You can also use the phone to format the card, but you will lose everything on the card.
Hope that helps.
thanks for your reply
but i had to flash my phone again and now i´m not having this problem anymore so far
Same thing happens to me too. Yesterday updated my X10 Mini Pro to 2.1, now the phone restarts, when mounted. I have tried on 2 computers (PC and laptop). Just now tried the suggestion to choose "Charge" and later "Mount" from status bar, seems to work
Actually, just now i remembered that this started happening not right after the update, but after i enabled Text-to-Speech or Speech-tp-Text or whatever it was. Will be trying to switch that off later.
for me the upgrade to 2.1 solved the problem...try to re-flash

I use exactly the same workaround on my X10 mini pro. This bug started after the android 2.1 upgrade. I never had it before...
It happens only when I mount the SD on Win7 and not on Ubuntu Linux: Could it be a driver issue?
EDIT: btw the issue disappeared after i uninstalled the live wallpaper

Hi, i had same problem with reboot after mount USB so i tried to find solution. And in my case the soution was simple.
I have had set sound notification to SD card witch was save on S card..... Go to: Preferences>display and sound> SD card notification> "set OFF"
That solved my problem
PS: Sorry for my english

Try to move those apps which you use more frequently to PHONE STORAGE or kill their procces before you mount your USB...this helped me
When I plug my Atrix into a device (computer, car, etc) via USB, the SD card auto-mounts. I would like to be able to adjust when it mounts but the auto-mount isn't a huge problem. My issue is that when I unplug the phone from a device the SD card doesn't automatically remount.
Is there a way to set up the SD card to automatically remount? Is there a manual way to remount besides restarting the phone?

Did u try mounting in Settings --> SD card and storage
Yes, when I go to that menu it says, "Insert an SD card to mount". I'm not able to click "mount" because it is grayed out with the above message on it.
Any other ideas?
When u plug your phone in, there should be a USB icon @ the top of the screen. Pull that down, and select 'Do Nothing' that should clear up your problem. Always make sure you do this before unplugging your phone if it mounts the SDCard to avoid corrupting the data. Let me know if this fixed your problem.
I have the same exact issue. Selecting "None" for usb mode does nothing for me either. I have to reboot my phone just to get the SD Card and Internal storage to re-mount.
I don't know if this is related but I am also running ADEO ROM.

I'm rooted but running stock otherwise.
Selecting "none" just affects the phone's internal storage, not the SD card. Also, whenever i plug my phone into any device it automounts the SD, I'm never given an option. It is really frustrating when I just want to charge via USB and not mount my SD card.
Any other ideas? Is there an app that would solve this?
EDIT: I'm also having an issue where my PC won't let me "eject" the internal storage of the phone or the storage on the SD (drives F and G) so I have no choice but to just unplug it.
I should add that with my case my phone unmounts internal storage AND the sd card. It's to the point to where I am using adbWireless in order to push or run any other commands needed for adb.

Yeah you and I are having the exact same problems. This is really aggravating. However, I might have found a solution. In the app switchpro, you can set one of the controls (icons) to be "media remount". I have had soem limited success with it. Try it out yourself and let me know if it fixes the problem.
Thanks
I'm having the same problem. I downloaded the SwitchPro app and used the toggle mount/unmout successfully, so i don't have to restart the phone. It's a shame I had to buy an app to fix a problem with a new phone. I believe the first day of owning the phone I may have unplugged from the cpu while in media link mode for the usb connection, but since then I have it set to "none".
I am not rooted, nor am I running adeo rom as mentioned above.

OK I'm glad we've found a fix of sorts at least.
That reload media widget works for my music player. Unfortunately, my widgets (dependent on teh SD card for skins) don't reload properly liek the rest of my media does. I'm still stuck powering on and powering off every time i unplug from a device.
SD Card problem
I think I have the opposite problem. I just rooted using aRoot. Now, when plugging the phone into my computer using a USB cable, the phone says the SD card is ready to be removed. And the Media Link can't read it either. Once I unplug the phone from the computer, the SD card is able to be used by the phone.
Any ideas?

My problems started after I used aRoot as well. Unfortunately, I never really found a solutions. I've just been restarting my phone whenever i plug it in. In your case, have you tried switching it into mass storage mode after plugging it in?

I've tried every setting with no luck. All I wanted to do is add some music to my SD card. So I ended up taking the card out of the phone and inserting it directly into my computer in order to add the music. Not the best solution to the problem.
No definitely not. At least the files get transferred faster that way
Hi, I usually dont write, but I read a lot here.
about 2 weeks ago i bought my S3, and everything was great. about 2 days ago I bought a 32GB MicroSD card (Sandisk Ultra Mobile CL10)
and put it into the phone, when I try to connect it to the computer via the USB cable, the transfer rate is extremely slow!!!
It usually just freeze about the middle and just pop-out a message that "The File could not be copied", and its the same to every file I try (regardless the type/size etc).
the strange thing is that it does the same to the internal memory!
if I take out the the MicroSD and put it into a card-reader and into a the computer it works great and transfer rate is about 20Mb/s!
is there anything I can/should do?
I know that on my old Motorola I could plug it into the computer and the SD card was shown as a "Removable Disk" and I could just copy and paste, and the S3 is either shown by a Camera or a media device... is there a way to make it as a Removable Disk?
I'm with a stock rom is that's matter.
hope I could get your help.
Thanks.

Sound like a problem i had when i got my 32gb card. for me it turned out that i had to change the usb port as the one i was using decided to be a usb1.0 port, changed port, installed drivers for a different port and it fixed my issue, dunno if it will work for you but worth a try.
also try formatting your card.

I just tried on another computer, the problem didn't occur but the transfer rate is still VERY slow...
I format the card within the phone and when I looked on the properties of the MicroSD card, under File System is written "generic hierarchical" - is that normal? is there anyway i could format it to NTFS or even FAT32? the phone will still recogsize it if i do?

Thats what mine says too, not sure which format it uses by default.
I have heard that you can format to ntfs or fat32, but i havent tried it, too scared to damage it and loose 32gb from my phone accidently, lol (ive done this before. ) but search and see.
Hi everyone,
after 1 year expericing with evo 3d everything is ok,
but in the last month some problems are killing me.
1- when i put the usb connection to download image, after i get sd error and cant see any images from gallery. (files are visible with android assistan, visible after rebooting, tried different cables, different sd, the system doesnt sees anymore images of applications, maybe some refresh problem?)
2- when i turn off the screen and connected to wifi or datamobile, both turn off till i turn on the screen, its a very annoying problem...
3- also the music application cant find my mp3 folder with music.
4- when i open gmail at first it says "no data connection", even if i'm connected, and clicking refresh works. (but i have to click everytime!!!,,,,
5- today i got also a strange grey icon of the battery with an ? on it, first time ever seen it.
other miscellanea information:
the phone is all original, i'm using apex launcher instead of sense, there is a lot of free space on sd, the phone never fell on the floor, nor in the water. camera is working great and all other function, no lag in applications,,
i hope some of you great xda master can help me finding a solution,
thanks to all.

ps. does exist an application that cancel all unused application files in the sdcard? thanks again.
1 and 3 sound like a bad sd card or card reader in the phone. The rest sound like an OS bug, which a factory reset should hopefully clear up.

What do you mean "cancel?"
thanks for the answer,
i guess is the sd card, il try a factory reset. the new sd card that caused problem is a samsung 16 gb cas 6, i thoght it was good.
i mean wipe the garbage, like all those files left behind from applications uninstalled and no longer used.
thanks again.

Well, normally when you connect the USB cable and choose to connect the USB storage then the SD card becomes unavailable to the phone but the computer can then access it. Both the computer and the phone cannot access the SD card at the same time... I will spare you the technical reasons but you should know that this is normal. After you are done copying files with the computer then you must turn off this USB storage mode so the phone can access the SD card again and then it will see all your music and pictures again (all these are stored on your card by default).
This should all be fixed OK by a reboot of the phone though in any case. Are you sure you rebooted the phone completely? maybe you should try to remove the battery once?
If you've done all that then you can try to repair the SD card by taking it out of the phone and using micro sd to SDHC adapter and inserting it directly into a computer then using windows to run a chkdsk on it.
hi,
i've done all you said properly, you know the problem came out because there was a differente behavior than in the past.
i remove securely the phone from pc and then is not accessible,
i didn't tried to chdsk the sdcard i'll try, but it sounded strange to me because its brand new.
i also tried to contact htc , they said " try to reboot, or try to remove the battery and the sd and start the phone again, the problem wasnt gone.
thanks for the advice.

Well if it's just gotten corrupted then you can just reformat the sd card. You'll want to backup all your data first so if you can't do that from the USB connection to the PC then you'll need to insert it directly into a pc. Once you've formatted it you can put your backed up data back on the card and put it back in the phone and after a while it will find your mp3s again. If it's truly a bad sd card then the reformat won't help.
Do you have another sdcard? The one that came with the phone or any other? Try putting some mp3s and photos on it and then put that in your phone. If your phone recognizes the photos and mp3s then maybe your current sdcard is the problem. And can you tell the the format of your sdcard? Is it NTFS or exFAT or FAT32? If it is UHS-1 card there is a good chance that it is in exFAT. To make it work on Evo 3d, convert it to FAT32 .
