SD card mounting issues. - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

My SD card will not read with multiple cards.
Under storage it says insert SD card.
Is this a known issue or is it more likely my SD tray?

I haven't heard of this being a known issue, though that doesn't mean someone else hasn't had the same ting happen. I'll assume you've done a reboot to see if it is a software issue, or even a factory reset. If that doesn't fix it, I'd say it is a hardware fault.

[Q] how to change SD speed?

How do I change SD speed?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Do you mean the read ahead or the speed of the actual card?
The card speed can't be changed... you buy a faster card
use the app sd booster.. it lets u change the cache so your sd card will run faster.. just gota find your sdcards sweet spot.. i have mines at 2048.. i8 never go any higher than that,,

SIM Undetected Issue

I am wondering if this is a hardware defect on my device or an actual problem.
My Phone:
S-OFF
Viper 1.1.3
Cubed 3.1.3
No Verizon OTA update
OTA update radio flashed via fastboot
Eng HBoot
Occasionally I will lose data/3G/4G connection and it will say a SIM is not detected (even though it is in there). I found that by rebooting it will fix it but I haven't found a fix besides that. I will regain connection after the reboot and it will work fine but this is happening at least once a day.
(Clearing Cache/Dalvik, Fixed permissions does nothing)
Thanks!
It is a common hardware problem on dna's. Reseating the SIM card is the best fox for it.

Had the same issue. My phone obviously was defected as my new one had no issue. Trade off is it came with the ota. So I have to wait for root now.

I used to have this problem on my phone. I re seated the sim card once and took the ota update and since then it hasn't given me any error involving the sim card.

Probably has everything to do with reseating and nothing to do with the ota.
Same issue for me. I cleaned the SIM card with an eraser and it's been good so far.

Expansion Slot

Couldn't find much on this, but is the spot to the left of the micro sd slot usable for the SDHC? If so how do you access it? Thanks ahead of time.
No that is the micro SIM card slot for LTE versions of the tablet (blocked on the WiFi versions for obvious reasons). The micro SD card slot accepts SDHC though.

No. That spot is where a SIM card would be installed. It is blocked with a piece of plastic on WiFi only models.

It is not possible. The LTE hardware is not installed in the WiFi Only tablets.
Is it possible to hack in the LTE hardware?

SD card issues

I've recently started having issues with my SD card, for some reason it keeps mounting itself as read only. If I unmount and then mount again, it works for a while and then stops again.
The card is a sandisk 64gb card and has around 33gb left.
Google hasn't thrown up much other than SD card issues on KitKat (I'm now running JB4.3 and not KitKat)
Any help appreciated
