[Q] microSD card problems - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A couple of days ago I upgraded my Android to 4.1.2 on my Galaxy SIII - I9300.
After this I start to get periodic errors on my microSD card: unexpectedly remove card / damage SD card. I checked the microSD card on other devices and is working fine. I try to format the card, to clear cache and mount it back. The error is still there.
Is this a known issue? Any solutions to solve this please?
Regards,
Alex

I did that, still the same errors

My Galaxy S3 broke my 32 GB class 10 microSD after two months, turned out to be a known issue. Next time I'll format as FAT32 probably..

Hi to all,
I have a rooted international GS3 (gelly bean), with an sd card 32 GB (Lexar High speed 10, purchased 6 month ago), since two days i cannot write on the sd card, that i can read with no problem.
the camera which supposed to write on the sd card pictures and filming switches back to the phone internal memory, i've still got around 10GB on the card.

Blank SD card error

my S2 is currently running 4.1.2 and rooted with SiyahKernel S2-v6.0beta6, I have a 64GB Sandisk Micro SD formatted in NTFS and mounted with NTFSSD, I can access all the files on my SD card with file explorer and watch movies store on the SD card with no issues.
However, I still get a notification icon of "Blank SD card error", and when I connect the phone to the computer, only the phone storage is detected.
How can I fix this?

Not sure why this happens. Here are your options:
1) Try to format it to the default which i think is FAT and leave everything else alone
2) Look at the thread for the specific kernel and see if others are having the same problem.
That error appear in google many times.

Most of the Blank SD error has nothing to do with me, those are issue like corrupt SD card etc, mine is about NTFS mounting on rooted S2 running Jelly Bean.
is there anyway to fix this, I can't find a solution
it's seem all I need to do is disable Android's Auto mounting because media scan is draining my battery.
Fixed myself, No thanks to XDA

FW, do you mind me asking how you fixed? I'm having the same issue now on my wife's gsii, and to backup everything she has on her SD card would be quite the pain, so trying not to reformat it. I verified everything's still on the card, and it works fine when in my phone or the desktop. But I keep getting the "blank SD card" error. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi. where did you buy that SD card? from ebay?
You can try MiniTool Partition Wizard but if card is fake you are in trouble.

Can't mount external sd card

Hello. When trying to flash my mini X android box, I used sd card from my sgs2. After that, I inserted the card to sgs2 and rebooted.
The telephone said "Corrupted card" and asked to format. However, it formatted internal sd card!! And it doesn't see the external one.
I've tried formatting external sd to fat32. No luck.
What should I do?

Well, this may sound stupid or strange, but what I couldn't do with gParted or Windows partition was easily done by putting sd-card to my Note 10.1
My problem is solved by now. The only thing that bothers me is that my internal sd is formatted and everything's lost. If anyone knows how to recover all data, please pm me
