I/O Error with 8GB MicroSD

I just bought a MicroSD Card with 8GB. (SanDisk 8GB MicroSDHC)
The Card works just fine when saving Data on it and it is formated in FAT32. Well, everythings fine until I play music and decide to stop the playback...
When I do so, the music player will refuse to read any data (including the song it just played) and other programs like Doggcatcher (failing downloads with I/O Error) and camera (can't find the SD Card) will fail.
I tried various ROMs like Vanillaeclair, rooted original ROM and Modaco, it's always the same.
The card has been changed by the shop I bought it from but the problem persists with the new one aswell.
A 2GB SanDisk works just fine...
Any ideas?
I made a disk check with Win7 and everything seems fine with the card.
Since I tried numerous Roms of 1.5 and 2.1 origin I was wondering if the Recovery Image may have a problem. I've installed the AmonRa Recovery (think its the newest 1.6.2)?

Micro SDHC 32GB Class 10 Card Problem

Hi, I just recently bought a Sandisk 32GB card and have it reformated before transferring it with music and videos. All is well, I can play all of my music but randomly, the music player will stop playing and I can't access the contents of the SD card anymore unless I reboot the phone. Tested it with H2testw and its genuine. Is there any way to fix this?. TIA.
Sooo, I am NOT the only one who has this problem.
Yes, this happens for me, too, with a class 10 Samsung 16 GB SD Card.
Just yesterday the card also lost files when this happened. Checking the SDCard revealed no problems whatsoever.
So now I wonder: Is the card reader not okay, is it a compatibility issue between certain cards and the S III or is it a firmware bug.
Format the card via windows as FAT32 may fix problems .

Backup your files and format it again

Formatet it multiple times with diferent systems. Having problems with pictures too, I only see 1 folder out of 5 :/

[Q] MicroSDXC Card Problems

Hey guys, i have owned my SGS i9300 for about a month and recently bought the 64GB MicroSDXC card, it was all great until I threw on all my music onto it, now when I throw in the same folders into itunes, it gives me 1400 songs, but when I put the same folders onto the memory card, I only get 13xx songs, now I know it's not a big deal, but it's still frustrating. Now i located one of the songs and copied it to the phone's memory, and it worked ... so i really don't know what to do :|
It's to do with the exfat system that the card is formatted with. If you can reformat the card as fat32 (preferably in another android device) and copy your files back it should work. Currently in the process of doing it myself.

[Q] missing music files

Hey guys and gals, i just got my new i9300 unlocked phone running android 4.0.4. Loving it so far, upgrading from the i9100. The first problem i had however was the USB cable it came with, it seemed it was a bit faulty cause it kept disconnecting the phone, tried other cables and they all work fine so i tossed the original cable out and all is well in that regard, the only issue i have right now with the i9300 is transferring music files (over 5 gigs) from my windows 7 64bit laptop to the 16gig micro sd card on the phone. i have tried every method to copy my music over including removing the micro sd card and using the card reader on my laptop to copy the files and also rooting my phone just so i can install the easy ums app, but each and every time the card is mounted in the phone again, half of the songs end up in the LOST.DIR folder with some numbers as the file name and an unrecognized file type. I am in the process right now of trying to copy the music to the internal memory of the phone to see if this is the same issue thinking maybe the sd card is currupt somehow everytime it is mounted back to the phone. Does anyone else have any idea on this issue?
UPDATE: Just finished copying all the music to the Music folder on the internal memory on the i9300, all files are there, and they play fine, I am thinking the sd card is the problem, so i am going to try and buy a new sd card tomorrow to see if i have the same issue.

oh trust me, i have googled and searched this and other forums EXTENSIVELY before posting here, i havent seen anything exactly to what i am having, and the issues that are slightly similar to what i am having were solved when they formatted their sd cards to FAT32, which i have already done.
A standard problem with multiple posts from the first month of SGS3 on XDA .
Trust me i have actually read them even answered one today/yesterday .
That was to put the music on the internal card until you can find a solution .

k, well thought i'd post an update for anyone having the same issue, i got a new sd card, a class 4 kingston with 16gb (the one that came with the phone seemed to be a generic one) and copied the files over, the drag and drop way, and all seems to be well for now.
Same issue with music files disappearing
I have had the same problem. I cannot find a pattern or cause. I am on my second class 4 32 GB SD card formatted as Fat32. I have yet to find a reasonable explanation or solution to apply. The card can be read in the phone and from a computer. But some how some music files randomly end up in the Lost directory
The ext SD was a key reason for me switching to this phone. I may be back to my iPod for music listening
Thank you for any help

My S3 keeps deleting music from my SD Card?

My S3 is a 32 GB but only about 26 GB is available for use. My music library is aroun 24 GB now and I was running out of space so I bought this 64gb memory card from eBay to store my music on. Now when I tried to sync it using the program I usually use to sync my music (easy phone sync) the music would sync but for most of the files when I tried to play them it would say the format is unsupported but when I looked at the files in the android explorer they're mp3s. I formatted the SD Card on my phone and tried again. Same thing happened. So I took the card out, put it in my laptop and tried to just copy the music files over. So on my computer when all the files were on the card, it had about 38GB left. But when I put the card in my phone it would say "preparing SD card" for a minute or two. Then when it was done the space available on the SD Card was 55GB and a lot of my music was gone. So I did some searching and saw that formatting to FAT32 might help. So I did just that and used the easy sync phone app again to try to sync my music but the same problem occured with my player saying the format of some files was unsupported. When I was syncing to the internal storage this was never an issue. Now it usually stops reading other files after the memory card reaches 55GB left. So why can't I put all my music on this SD card, and why does the phone delete the files I placed there using my laptop's explorer when I put in the micro SD card? Please help.
Fake faulty card is the usual .
