something strange to share.. i upgraded a 8gb sd card to a 16gb and was working fine for last few days. now it disappears randomly and i have to reboot and it shows up as mounted.. everything app that requires the card fails until i restart. any suggestions? perhaps i have bad card?
Edited. rooted NT & havent changed anything since card upgrade
Have you tried taking it out and putting it back in? Perhaps it isn't seated well. I had something like that happen once right after I got mine, but not since.
This happened to me a few times, I just pop it out and put it back in and it remounts

Hi all,
I am having a wierd problem with my micro SD card. I have noticed that it has gotten corrupted (Broken as it says in the notification) a handful of times now. I just rebooted my phone and during start up, it stopped at the AT&T Spash, then restarted, it took a little while longer to fully reboot, but once it did I got a "Broken Card" notification. Now that I think of it, the corruption seems to be happening any time I restart the phone.
Has anyone else had this problem, or heard of it? Is the card bad maybe? It seems to work fine till I do a reboot. I am getting kinda tired of reformating the card and reloading my stuff on it.
Thanks
Hi all,
I have been using CM7 on my D2G for a while now, both Froyo and GB bases. I had originally noticed sometimes my screen wouldn't turn back on after it turning off. This happened on 2 phones - same SD card.
It is now happening again, and I am curious if anyone had heard of a corrupt SD card or files on the card causing these problems, as this is the only thing I can think of causing this problem (save for WidgetLocker, but this happened without it activated before too).
Any feedback would be appreciated!
Hey, a few months ago, thanks to you guys, I got Prime v2 up and running on my optimus and ever since then it will occasionally freeze up attempt to restart and then lock up on the android screen and i have to take out the battery and restart it. What I'm guessing is going on is that the phone think the SD card (where it runs Prime from) is removed. When I had the stock T-Mobile software on it I always had warnings about the SD card being removed. Well the past few weeks this has been happening about 8-12 times a day and sometimes I don't notice it and my phone has been offline for an hour, missing calls.
Is this common? Is it a hardware thing I can fix or just a software issue I can fix fix with a ROM upgrade? I'm thinking of just flashing back the T-Mobile software but I really really don't want to have to reinstall and setup all my apps and re-enter all my contacts (Gmail syncing doesn't work that well here in China for some reason). Honestly the only thing that I need the ROM for is using my VPN because the stock won't do it.
could be some damaged / bent pins on the sd area
This is unusual... Never happened to me before

I also had some SD card and boot issues with the prime rom. Switched to CM7 rom a few days ago and until now it works flawlessly.
This is the rom I used: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=946354
This has happened to me twice, though I'm on stock 2.2.2. My phone is rooted and I use Link2SD.
The first time, I was listening to some songs when suddenly the SD card unmounted itself and the phone suddenly restarted from the Android screen, and got stuck there, same as you. The second time, I took my phone from my pocket and found it at the android screen, stuck! Both times, I had to take out my battery, and then switch on the phone again.
Both times, there is no reason for the phone to hang because it ran out of memory or something, because I clear unwanted background apps from time to time, and on both occasions, I wasn't running any apps that take up a lot of system resources.
Anyone knows how to fix this?
I'm getting this problem a lot from my phone nowadays especially after dropping it. Is this a problem with my SD card or my phone? I've had several phones before and always dropped them once in a while but it seems that the SGS2 is extremely sensitive to them. Also, I don't know if it's related but I'm hearing a very soft hissing sound whenever I plug in my earphones. The sound is very minute and is similar a cd player whenever the cd starts to spin from idle.

You should not drop your phone.
I had issues with my external sd card twice.
Now I am using my third sd card and everything is fine.
The others, it could send back for warranty replacement.
But I am not sure about the "real" cause of that issue.
So, just change your sd card and check this for a while.
Maybe it's the sd card, maybe the phone?!
Good luck !
P.S.: I never recognized the sound issue you mentioned on my phone.
Now if you two have finished the pissing contest...
If you google for the error message "sd card has been removed unexpectedly" you'll see it's not unique to samsung either, and I suspect it's a bug in android. I've had it happen when the phone was sitting perfecly still on the table, and it has happened much less lately after I started swapping newer version of OS and kernel.
No solution really unless your problem is really caused by hardware problem, just restart your phone and it'll be fine.

Thanks for answer. You have often this error occurs? And what android version you have?
Used to be every couple of days, but haven't seen it in a while. Running xxki3 and siyah kernel.

Hey!
Did you resolve the problem somehow?
I keep getting it on my I900. I've synched my spotify tracks to my external sd, but constantly need to reboot due to the error message. Friking me out!!
Is the problem my SD-card - a Kingston 16 GB SDHC (I think?), or my phone? Love my S2, but this is driving me insane !!!
"Sd card has been removed unexpectedly" my a** !

Hey all,
I recently rebooted my SGP5 to find that it completely killed my 32GB Sandisk SD card...
1.) Is this a common problem anyone else as experienced? It had a full 32GB of data one minute, then it rebooted and bam, the card isn't readable.
2.) The SGP reboots constantly with any of my other 16GB cards put inside it. Just boots up, stays at the screen for a bit, and within 1min it reboots again. I'm not sure why or what exactly is happening
Is there anyway to get the data back from the SD and does that fit under SanDisk warranty? I've had the card for < 2 months.
And how can I fix the issue where it won't stay booted with an SD card?
Thanks in advance if anyone can assist in resolving any of these issues!
