Hello all,
I've bought 8GB SD card and used it on my mini pro, I faced some issues like:
1. Alot of programs suddenly crash
2. Wireless connection gets dissconeccted automaticlly
3. The whole Android software get crashed and the screen goes into black, then this can't be solved if I didn't remove battary and reinsert it.
I Tried to check the SD card for bad sectors and problems but there were nothing.
Any Solution?
NOTE: I have another SD card (2GB) and it dosen't make any problem when in use.
If you remove the card the problems persist?

remove your sd card, run your phone and see if errors still occur
I have another SD card (2GB) and I am using it now without any problem
It doesn't make sense, but you can always sell it cheap to someone that can make a good use to it.. #short term solution..

This doesn't make sense.
SDcard has nothing, that could affect wireless connections at all.
SDcard has nothing, that could affect whole Android firmware. Neither should it make apps crash.
What manufacturer's SDcard did you buy?

MAYBE a problem with file system, connect it to pc, with a card reader or put phone in mass storage and format it with FAT32 system.. thats what my 8gb card has..

It happen to once with my cheap 4gb card when i paired with nokia n82.. Till now i don't know why the phone keep refusing to recognize the card. The irony is, the "rejected card" works normally on my current phone "sk17". it left me scratching my head.
If you can return it, return it. If its not worth it, just get a new one. Basically, you have done everything on you end, so its definitely the card's fault.

Check for SD card class,its written on SD card.If its less than Class 6 then you should buy SD card with class 6 or higher.
Second you should not place large files like multiple blueray pictures or multiple songs in single folder.And last you can speed up SD Card read,write speed by using SD booster of Root tool box pro app to make your SD card faster.
I thing class is not so important. I now using few year old 16 gb card class 2 without any problem
Sent from my ST15i using XDA
Weird but I have no reason not to believe you.At least you know that the problem is the card,so either return it and get a new one or buy a 16Gb instead.They re already pretty cheap! Opt for a class 6+!

Why should I avoid putting multiple songs in one folder? I have put like that and my sd works fine eh??
and the other thing if you had apps in the other sd which was 2gb and u put the 8gb one without transferring them to the 8gb card the apps should not work. Android system failure sould be a problem of memory management. Check whether you had filled ur card.
and yea I think the best solution for u if u have tried every thing, return the card
Hi folks.
I originally bought a 64gb SanDisk micro sd card. After a firmware update my phone no longer recognised it. Samsung gave up trying to help and I gave up and sent the card back to amazon.
I'm now trying a 32gb micro sd card from SanDisk.
If I move mp3 files onto my internal phone memory it Will play them quite nicely. If I move them from there to the sd card they become corrupt and end up in lost.dir
If I move then from my pc to the sd card, worth or without kies, they end up in lost.dir
If I format the card in the phone or my pc and move the files in any way already described, guess what? They end up in lost.dir
What files it can find sound like High pitched static.
If I can't figure this out poor amazon is getting another sd card back.
Ian.

Same problem on stock jb 4.1.1
Hello i've the same problem on Stock JB 4.1.1 almost all the times I wake up the phone from standby i see. SD was removed..... and then Preparing SD Card. Is there a sw or hw problem? What can i try to solve it?
Thank you
Hi, I've got exactly same problem. I'm on stock jelly bean 4.1.1 not rooted not moded in any way. Card 33gb sdhc class 4.
I have formated this card few times in phone and still same thing happens.
This has never happened on stock ics firmwares.
Has anyone got a solution for this?
Please post your thoughts/opinion.
Thank you!
This seems to be an issue with the card controller itself or the controller drivers, I've been trying to fix it for ages and can't seem do any progress on it though. There is a possibility that it's ahardware fault of the phone.

hi, what brand is your memory card?
---------- Post added at 02:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 PM ----------
just been speaking to samsung rep over the phone, they said that if this is not samsung branded memory card they can't provide any support for this issue... very dissapointing!
This has happened to my sd card too. Took plenty of pix yesterday and after that this "Preparing SD card", add also "blank SD card" notices started to pop up everytime. Got scared for my files, fortunately, this morning, I was able to detect the card from the PC. I Backup files and restarted the phone. The same notices. Decided to format the card from the phone but still the same. I just kept the card in the phone. Guess what, this afternoon I could again access the files from the sd card--that with formatting from the phone. But it alternated with the above mentioned notices.
So, has anybody already validated that it is an HW problem?

Same problem here,i am thinking our Quad core cpu is burning the SD card slot!
I have notice the cpu is laying right under the sd card slot so when our quad core gets high temp,it slowly burns our micro sd card.
This happens to my moms s3 and mine too,might be a failure from SAMSUNG.
This happened to me as well, Stock JB 4.1.1, with a (presumably) genuine Sandisk 32GB class 4 card. It began after I updated to JB, first with "updating SD" every time I woke the phone from standby, then frequent errors saying the SD card was corrupt, and finally that it was blank. I tried reformatting but the SD card eventually became unreadable in either the phone or my PC - it simply wasn't recognised at all. I replaced the SD card and I haven't had another issue but I do wonder if it is just a matter of time before the errors begin again.
i have spoke to samsung rep again, and this time lady was great help but i need to send my phone to their repair centre for a software reflash, which is different to phone reset.
and if the failure will repeat after this, ill have to send it again but on the third occasion ill have new replacement.
hopefully itll get sorted by just reflashing.
ill keep you updated if you're interested.
thanks,

Please do update. Guess it's better to remove first the card until the problem is resolved. Tia.

I made a post about this awhile back too. I thought I was the only one but this happens randomly to me. I thought it had to do with the media scanner, but apparently a lot of us have the problem.
I just get it randomly though.

I had the exact same problem with my 32GB class 10 sandisk card (original, I think), after 3 months of use.
I got a new card and the problem is gone. I thought it was a faulty sd card, but I seems i´m not the only that had this issue... Maybe it´s an hardware problem on our gs3?
Please keep us updated :good:
PS: I tried my old card on 2 stock roms and CM10, so i guess it´s not a software issue. I alse tried to format my card multiple times and no luck.
But it´s wired that h2testw did not show any errors on my card!
I have been using a SanDisk 32GB class 10 for about 3 months and everything was perfect....until I started experiencing same issues as mentioned: Sd card blank, sd card error, unsupported format etc.
First I thought this was caused by custom kernel, but after flashing the stock kernel I was still having the same problems.
As this nasty error keeps happening repeatedly the sd card becomes unreadable and I ended up formatting the card in a pc.
However, I found out that it's not necessary to format the card. All you have to do is mounting the card in another device/pc and then back in to the phone (without formatting).
Anyways, I had enough of that sh*t so I removed the card. A couple of days later I put the card back in phone and it's been working perfectly ever since.
So at first the card worked flawlessly, then later it was blank/unsupported/removed for a week or something and now it's back to normal.
I haven't installed or flashed anything different than before so I guess it's a manufacturer hardware flaw.
I hope this headache doesn't happen again.
PS: My friend has a gs3 as well and we have identical sd cards (bought at same time and in the same shop). However, he NEVER had a single error with his. So how can this be explained???!!
Hi,
Just a quick question. Have you been using infuse car dock and started to experience memory cards issues afterwards?
For me this only happened in stock jelly bean. Flashed back to ICS, problem solved.

Woke up this morning to find phone refusing sd card, rebooted, same issue. Tried card in other machine - card dead. Tried several cards known good & it returns card damaged on every one even formatted cards. Worth trying a hard reset or is the phone junk? Only month old or so, never been dropped. I'm fairly good with Android & this has me stumped..

My sd card suddenly cant be mount/read, it happen when my phone fall from my table to the floor.
Idk what must I do to fix this. I'm using sd card vgen 16gb
PLEASE HELP ME
I'm begging you
It might happen that your sd slot is damaged due to the fall. Take it to a service center.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
yes brother maybe your sd card slot is dead or your sd card itself has suffered any damage during fall
first try using any other sd card in your phone if it shows same problem then it will make sure that your slot is damaged
if that happens go to service center
