Hi all,
I bought an Sandisk 16GB class 10 card, and when the phone wakes up I sometimes get message like "SD card blank or has unsupported file system" or "SD card damaged" or "SD card unexpectedly unmounted". Then I re-mount card or do a reboot, and everything is normal for a while, and then it happens again.
I've checked card for errors on PC, and I've check the card with h2testw, and everything is ok.
Have tried to different formats: exFat, default allocation size, FAT32 default, 16kB, 32kB and even tried from somebody here on forum 8kB allocation size, and I always have the same problem.
I have GT-I9300, XXLF5.
3.0.15-705505-user Kernel.
Any ideas?
I've got the same issue with my Sandisk 64GB ultra microsdxc card.. I've tried formatting it in my computer twice, to no avail.
I am running XXLG1 and siyah kernel.
i have the same 16gb micro sd but i used the phone to format it and havn;t met with any issues.
Might be a hardware problem. Try removing sd card and using compressed gas to blow away any dust particles. If that doesn't work try cleaning contacts on microsd card but that's all the ideas I've got. Either sd card is bung or the sd card reader in the phone is.
You could try another sd card in the phone if you have one and if you still get the same problem take back under warranty.
I've 32gb samsung class 10, with the same issue....
The card is ok! Sometimes i've this issue. I've formatted and for a few days I didn't have this error, then again...
I'll try with another sd...
Try format the SD card from the phone, not from pc,it's done from settings,storage/format. Ext sd,this should fix it.
remember to backup everything on sdcard as the will completely wipe your sd

Yes I know, I've done so without success...
Thank you
Edit: I'm trying formatting to ntfs....
Same problem here with SanDisk Ultra MicroSdHc

Is the majority of people here using Scandisk Cards or is it mostly a issue related to Scandisk Cards?
Maybe they need a tad longer to initialize, which causes the phone to not recognize the filesystem
looks like s3+sandisk=saddisk. glad i not buy it yet.

I tried with 2 cards. 16GB Transcend & 32GB Sandisk class10.
I have copied my data from nexus s to this card through windows and memory reader.
card is unstable. many times it giving error sd card removed unexpectedly.
I formated the card with windows , with phone it self, fat32 and exfat also. I tried all of them.
what is the solution?
I am sure this is phone problem, but I want to know is it hardware or software problem?

I had the same problem.
I tried 4 memory cards and one of them is working which is 16 GB and its local brand.
I have a SanDisk 32 GB class 10 and its not working with my SGSIII.
I think that's why all nexuses don't have memory card slot.
Any way try alternative memory cards.

One minute it´s ok. Few minutes later, S3 returns "Formar SD card".
tks.
32GB SanDisk Mobile Ultra microSDHC Class 10
Same issue with this card.
My S3 unmounts the SD card when the screen goes black and remounts on wakeup. The thing is that my music player gets confused and sometimes the card get corrupted. I tried to format it in FAT32 and different cluster size but at no avail. Is driving me in insane... :crying:
I'm no using my trusted ole 2GB microSD which came with an HTC Hero, and it's way more stabile but it stille happens on occation.
Does seem to be related to custom ROM since it happens to me regardless of the installed ROM.
Is everyone who is experiencing this problem running JellyBean?
If so, it's probably related to this issue rather than an issue with the physical SD Card.

i have recently bought a TG01, when i got it it was running the orange WM6.1 rom, it wouldnt detect either my 4GB or 8GB micro sd cards, i had to lend a 1GB card to run the official 6.5 update, now the 4 and 8gb cards are detected but whenever i try to flash a rom i get SD Mount error after it loads the SDDL. anyone know why this would happen and if it could be due to that its been partitioned for use on a hero previously?

From the beginning we have problem with the cards. You can find more info in (http://www.modaco.com/content/toshi...m/291115/toshiba-tg01-memory-card-corruption/).
Try to format your card and start from 0.

Try to format your card and start from 0. I had this problem but don't remember with witch program I format the sd card. Wen I bought my TG01 it show me just 1GB and the card was 8GB then I find some info that you need to format y our card but I didn't find now where is this info. In the modaco web you can find more info and in google about this.
ive tried formatting it several times, the phone picks up the card fine when in winmo, i just cant flash any roms with it as the SDDL cant mount it.

To format your card use (“sdfv2000.exe”) I uploaded for you. Try it if not working I have an other solution.
Same Issue.
I have been having the same issue since day 1. Has driven me insane with program's icons that are loaded up on the sd card not showing up properly in the start menu, they always have a blank icon on them. Has really driven me crazy. Has anyone found a solution to this?
try and use sddl+ to flash the rom instead of just sddl
Already did that.

Thank you for your advice however I already tried that potential solution and many different roms and radios, I tried formatting my SD card with the Panasonic sd card format utility, but no luck. Would getting a class 10 Kingston card be a smart idea? Or maybe I need to buy a slower Transflash card? I have a 4GB Class 6 from SanDisk but the same error occurs. Do I and the other people have defective phones, or is this an issue that can be solved? What should I do?

I've never had a problem with SD Card. Now I bought a 16GB Kingston Class 10. I have no problem with the card, work properly.
Getting a class 10.
Tell ya what, I will get the class 10 cuz more space is always good, I will let everyone know if it has solved the problem. Before I do this, I am just going to buy an el-cheapo class nothing sd card and see if the same problem occurs and then I will have tested the range so to speak. I will report anything interesting.

I am thinking of getting a 64gb micro sd card (which I believe will work in the GS2), how easy is it to transfer the apps and content that are already on my 32gb card? I is it as easy as just copying the content from the current card to my pc then copy it back to the new 64gb card?

Also, yes. It should be as easy as copying the content from one card to another.
Goes on sale tomorrow on Amazon UK for £99.
The SanDisk 64GB microSDXC does work in the SGS2 -- I've been using it for about a month now. If you're transferring stuff from an old memory card, I'd recommend the following procedure.
Remove the old card from your SGS2 and put in the new 64GB card.
Power up the SGS2; it'll say something like "external SD card is damaged. Do you want to reformat?" Say yes, and let the SGS2 reformat the card from exFAT to FAT32.
Remove the 64GB card from the SGS2.
Mount both the old & new memory cards on a PC, and do the copy there. Use your PC's SD card slot or a USB reader.
Once everything's copied to the 64GB card, put it in your SGS2 and you're done.
Isnt only up to 48gb sd card supported on our S2?
A couple of people have tried the SanDisk microSDXC 64GB , and it appears to work fine , after a format in the phone , 48gb is just the official max.

First of all, I'm sorry if a similar thread as already been made but i didn't find a section for my phone nor a thread about this type of problem. I found two threads on different forums with the same identical problem but the answers were bad or some times there wouldn't be any answers at all.
So, I got a Samsung Galaxy W this Christmas and I loved it, it was fast and smooth, and still is, but i noticed that it didn't come with a SD Card and i wanted one because i noticed an option to move my apps to the SD Card instead of having them installed in my phone memory.
So, yesterday i bought a 16GB SD Card, and plugged it in my Galaxy W. All fine, it appeared in the Storage Settings, i formatted it and everything was going well, but then i started moving my apps to it and first of all, I noticed that when clicking the Manage Applications option inside the Applications Settings, and then when i clicked the tab On SD Card, the space available wasn't 16GB (or 14,XXGB it doesn't matter) but some MB's (0,94GB used and 788MB free) and i started wondering, Where are my 16GB?. Later on i also noticed that 0,94GB + 0,788GB = 1,07GB which is my USB Storage capacity. So, why is my phone installing apps to the USB Storage instead of the SD Card. I also installed ES File Explorer from the Market and when i opened the app it showed me the content of the /sdcard, inside this there is a bunch of folders (Android, LOST.DIR, bluetooth, usbStorage, external_SD, etc...) and i found a folder called external_SD and i clicked on it and it opened the files of my SD Card the real 16GB one and i know this because i had plug my SD Card in my MacBook with the adapter that came it with and i dragged a movie and some music and it was there, inside that external_SD folder which is inside of the /sdcard location in my phone. What i understood from this is that my phone is recognizing the USB Storage as the SD Card even though that my SD Card is recognized as the SD Card in the Storage Settings. Also when i plug my phone to my MacBook via USB, two drives show up, a NO NAME which contains the files from the /sdcard/ and another NO NAME which is my 16GB SD card. I'm really confused with this and i really need to move my apps to the SD Card to save space. Please, what do i need to do to solve this problem?
I took some screenshots to help you understand the issue:

Screenshots of what it looks like when i run a file explorer app, in this case, ES File Explorer:
And what's inside this strange external_sd folder inside /sdcard/ which are the files i have in my real 16GB sdcard:
A strange fact is that, when i unmount my SDCard on Settings>Storage>SD Card>Unmount and then try to access the apps or even move them to SD Card, the phone tells me that i don't have any SD Card mounted which is true. So the phone recognizes the SD Card but when the SD Card is mounted, the phone uses the USB Storage as the SD Card. This is what i think the phone is doing.
So please guys i need help.

There is no problem. Your device has an internal SD card as well as the 16GB external SD card. When you move an app to the SD, they are being moved to your internal SD card. Plus, devices with internal SD cards do not allow you to use it's full space for app installation. e.g. A device says it has 16GB internal memory (the internal SD card), but you may just have 2GB for apps. When you mount your SD card to your PC, the internal SD card is the one which gets mounted (unless you use a hack to swap them).

So, does that mean that i can't move apps to the external_SD? Because the Internal SD of my phone only has 1,07GB .

That's pretty good if you think about it. Some devices have <150MB of space and even with an external SD card (and the ability to move apps to it), the internal memory would still run out due to the small space of the app which remains on the internal memory.

Yeah, same i have the same phone Samsung Galaxy wonder and I bought 32gb micro SD card $75.00...really sucks finding out that the external memory card doesn't work. Whats the use of having specs showing phone is capable to have up to 32gb external memory when it doesn't even work
thanks for the info
i'm going insane trying to figure it out
because it said full when i installed new apps
but when i see from setting it still has 14 GB
still, i have to move my data manually
Does anyone know if our Galaxy Tab 2 (I have the 7" if that matters) will support a 64GB Micro SDXC card? For example: http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobil...WIA2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336508200&sr=8-1
I am looking to use a 64GB for my dash project if it will work, as 32GB after offline navigation maps, isn't much room for music for me... hopefully it will support it, I just don't want to buy it and it not work...
Thanks in adv.!
Samsung makes a USB adapter and a sd card connector that would let you have additional storage besides the built in sd card slot.
Site says it is not compatible with original Galaxy 7.0, but doesn't make mention of any other Galaxy Tab.
Your main issue would be getting power to the tab...you would be able to hook a USB hub to the Samsung adapter...then off the hub, have additional storage and one going to a charger cable...not sure if that would fry anything though...and even if that worked, you'd be getting a trickle charge.
Alternately, you could hack up one of the Sammy docks which offer some different port options. The site doesn't list any of these accessories specific to the Tab2, but I'm guessing the 7.0 plus accessories work until they release the official Tab2 accessories.
no, this card will not work with this tablet. i brought this tab for my daughter, i have a xoom with a 64gb card in it. I also have a spare 64gb card. I placed it in her tab and it was not recognized. It was already formatted and working in my xoom.

i'll try again later. i do know that i put the card in and the device asked to format it. i let it, and still nothing. i will experiment some more later.
edit: i see his device is rooted, that might be why it works.
Yea, I know when he put his in, it took almost a minute for the device to show that the card was in there... but we chalked that up to the fact that it has a ton of stuff on it.
Also, this card is currently being used in his rooted, ICS running ATT Samsung Galaxy S II.. so maybe that has something to do with it (it's in the proper ICS format already).
maybe soon they will do a save to SD option... then i will have a reason to buy a bigger SD card

If you inserted the card & it asked you to format it. It means it can't read what format (NTFS, exFat) is currently on the card. Once you format it (FAT32), the device will recognize the card.

So you are Komputerbay?
I've bought a few memory cards from you! Best prices! Wish you had more shipping options or had Prime shipping.
And I bought this exact one last week and got it in the mail Tuesday.
When I got the card, it worked flawlessly on the PC.
I did have to try quite a few things before I got it to work in the tablet.
BUT I did finally get it to work!
Below is a list of what I tried and the results.
#5 is what works!
This was tested using the Galaxy Tab 2 7" running dsb9938's UEALD3 Stock, rooted, de-odexed rom and his kernel update 5.
Also tested using my phone, AT&T Captivate (sgh-1897) running AOKP ICS 4.04
Things I tried:
1. Format using SD Formatter (it formatted the card to ExFat)
The tab (running stock rom and custom kernel) tries to mount the card then says "ready to unmount".
The phone (running AOKP 4.04) tries to mount the card and then says "damaged card".
2. Used Easus Partition Master to delete the card's partition and re-format to Fat32.
The tab looks like it mounts the card, but then I start getting FC's left and right.
"process.android.media"
"MTP application"
"Factory Test"
"Software update"
Trying to get to the Storage in Settings.
^^ all the above FC
Phone shows "damaged card".
3. Used Easus PM to delete the partition, create a new partition, but leave unformatted.
-Same result as above
4. Used Easus PM to delete the partition and leave unpartitioned.
-Neither device recognizes a card is inserted.
**** This works! ****
5. Take the existing memory card (that I know works) out of the tablet and attach to PC using adapter.
a. Use Easus PM to delete the partition on the new sd card.
b. Use Easus PM's "Clone Partition" wizard to copy my old card to the new card.
c. The wizard allows you to resize the new card's partition.
*Be sure to do this else the new card's size will be the same size as your original card.
d. Once Easus PM reports everthing is done, eject that bad boy and slap it into the tablet!
***DO NOT RUN "Format SD card" from the tablet Settings!
It will "break" the card again (just repeat process if you do).
A little verbose, I know, but I thought maybe someone will find the info helpful!
64 gb in (rooted) SGT 2 10.1 ?
Anyone knows if 64 gb sd card could work in a (rooted) SGT 2 10.1 ?
Grtz,

Just a word of warning here. Some devices, even new ones, will occasionally have problems with SDXC cards even if the card is recognized and usable after formatting (or even without first formatting it). The issue comes into play when you pass the 32GB limit on the card. Files may become corrupted, not save, become unreadable, or you may lose a majority of the card's data overall.
By no means am I saying it will happen, but that it can. The card may work fabulously up until 32GB before any problems arise.

Can anyone confirm if this really happens? What happens if I copy more than 32GB of videos/music/photos to the 64GB card? Will they just not get recognized
by the GT2 7.0? Or will the files get corrupted? (not that it matters, these are
all video/music/photos that I view to kill time while flying)
Thanks!

I second this request. This is the major reason I am still holding off on trying SDXC. I would appreciate any feedback on trying this.
Easy thing to try. Backup your SD card, find 33GB of data and start copying.
format it FAT 32
for the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 format your 64gb microSDXC as Fat 32
Ive read that ICS uses exfat?

I currently have 31.99 GB of movies on my 64 GB card. The movies will still open and play just fine in the stock video player.
I have 36GB on my card. The card is fat formatted. The card would not be recognized when I formatted it with my PC and exfat. I used my phone to format it with fat. I read you might have to use a DOS command to format fat beyond 32GB`s with a PC.
I went to use my phone last night after swapping the battery and it came up with a message saying:
"SD Card is damaged. Try reformatting it"
Its a Lexar Class 10 32GB card so obviously has a lot of stuff on it that I want to try and recover. I've tried sticking it in my laptop but it also complains that it is corrupt and unreadable.
Is there anything I can do to try and recover some of the files before I reformat it?
Also while Googling this issue I came across a topic saying that the S3 uses exFAT that causes an SD card to become corrupt over time and that its best to format the card using FAT32, is this true and if so if I format the card on my PC will this be FAT32?
Any help greatly appreciated!
look for undelete pro or similar wording on Play .
