SD Card Problems - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
For some time, the message "memory card removed", "memory card removed unexpectedly" a few seconds "Preparing memory card". The message appears in the notification bar every time you unlock the screen. MicroSD Card SanDisk Ultra 32GB SDHC card. Changing the official Rom did not help. Formatting the card in your phone has not made improvement. Formatting the card on your computer for FAT, NTFS, does not help. The message, if there is no SD card is clean, but just something to upload images, such as a pair of films that message returned.
Has anyone had or has a similar problem and how to solve it?
Sorry My English is very bad

have you tested the card in other devices? have you tested other cards with the phone?

yes, I tested other cards in the phone and it is with them problems

try a completely stock rom, if that doesn't help, send it to service

AW: SD Card Problems
It seems to be a common problem with the s3. Later your sd card will be destroyed and there is no way to fix it right now. My phone killed my sd card yesterday =(

I am using devoid rom.
Whenever I reboot my phone or remount the sd card.Then,all the application gets vanished and i am left with grey icons in the "manage application" tab.Although,i could view pictures and videos present on my sd card.
When,i try to remove sd card,then a message appear on the screen after some time that"activity sd card & settings.......not working... force close or wait".
I have also checked sd card and even install the rom from fresh and nand restore.But none is working.
What to do now?
Please help me
Try some other rom, may be there is a bug in this one.
I am also experiencing that kind of problem, but first check if your sd card is full,
mine is a 16GB one but only 1.73 GB and media scanner is slow
I am planning to upgrade to 64GB Microsdxc's (Sandisk 's)
Using Stock Rom (2.3.3) with custom kernel(franco's) and rooted!!!

help
same problem exists fr one of my frds
Try dialing *#*#7378423#*#*, go to Service tests>External Memory (if you are on ICS already - I don't recall GB having this option). It should be able to detect your microSD card as "Inserted/Mounted".
Thank you carlshark
But I`m not on ICS yet...
The update is not released yet for my phone.
I think returning my phone to the store is my best option right now.

maybe the hardware is broken...

WT19i Cant mount any sd card
plsss helpp meee
my wt19i wont mount any sd card i connected the phone on the pc to take some photos and in the moment he did a restart and when start i get a noftitaciton blank sd card i did factory reset hard reset , flash the firmaware but he donte mount the card i took a new card and the new card wont to mount but the old sd card work fine in another phones i dont now what is the problem plsss help meee
and exuse me for my bad english...
i got the same problem here...
anyone knows how to fix it?
my wt19i is on stock GB rom, i rooted it, installed Link2SD, created partition on my sd card, linked some apps to the sd card..
and then i decided to flash my phone to stock ICS.. it succeeded though.. but my phone can't recognize the sd card anymore..
i flashed it again to stock GB, formated the sd card, but it still the same..
I have the xactly same problem. Last night I tried to flash AOS 4.4.x to my WT19i with no good. So I reflashed with last working CM (CM9.1) with 4GB flash inserted. I reflashed, set the phone up for the first time, connected with facebook and installed couple of apps (I have not moved the apps to card - all were in the internal memory). But toady in the morning, I bought a new 8GB sd card and wanted to replace it. And here the problem starts.
When I inserted the card into the phone, it said that the card could be removed. When I look into settings>storage, I see "mount sd card" option. When I click it, it goes grey for a sec and then BOOM, "mount sd card". I tried returning back my old 4GB card, but I still see the "mount sd card" option. Simply, the phone stopped reading any sd card.
Even the recovery cant read the card, which I think is a major issue - I cannoit reflash system, since I cannot access sd acrd in recovery.
Yes, every card I tried IS working - tested on other two phones and three computers.
So I think, is it a hardware issue with the card interface in the phone?

Did u change anything? Kernel, Rom, Firmware version?
U can try to copy all data from sd card to PC, format it and then copy data back to sd card.
Maybe this will fix it. If not it seems to be a prob with sd card itself (Hardware)
CHEERS
yeah I had used many kernels ROMS .etc etc but reverted back everything to stock and unrooted

[Q] Sandisk Micro SD card won't format

Hi Guys,
I had some problems with my sandisk micro sd card. I am a type of guy that likes changing rome. one day when changing roms, My phone was very hot and i decided to unmount my sd card. after rebooting, i inserted my sd card in and a message flashed: Blank SD card. i clicked on the message and reformatted the card and the same message came out again. i inserted it into my mac and use disk utility to erase the contents of the sd card as all the other options were unavailable. the time for it to erase took longer and longer. after one night, the time increased to a week and then the card wouldent format. i looked at many other forums and the solution to many was sdformatter, which unfortunately did not work for me. when i used my windows to reformat, an error occurred and i could not reformat. i went into device and printers to find it but it was not there. so i was wondering if there is another way for me to fix this problem as this is the 4th 32gb sandisk micro sd card i bought.
Try SD formatter on a different PC, if that fails then you need to buy another SD card or return it the the seller - try another brand if Sandisk keeps failing.

[Q] Weird problem?

Hey guys
I'm having some weird issues with the phone recently
I have a 64gb micro sd card by sandisk
The problem is that whenever I restart my phone
It boots up and then it works fine and then freezes up for 2-5mins
Also in the storage settings
Under sd card
It shows applications,music,misc files
And then when it stops freezing it comes back to normal and shows total space and remaining space
Any idea why is this happening?
I don't want to format the sd card
Test with no SD Card
It works fine without it
Answer is its a corrupt sd card possible fake see multiple fake sd cards posts /
SOLVED!
No no it wasn't a fake sd card
Supersu was causing the problem
Switched over to superuser
Works like a charm now
