Hi,
I got my Optimus one not long ago and I bought kingston 8G for it though it would work fine. The phone read the card well and show the memory correct and I can use it pretty good on my phone. The thing later I found out is the phone itself restart after the idle time exceed 1hr which is crazy. The phone works really good until I upgrade my original sd card (samsung 2G which came in with) to Kingston microsd 8G. I don't know where exactly is wrong, and I couldn't return the sd card either since it work fine on both phone and on computer with card reader. If someone got same problem with me, please let me know or help me out!! Thanks in advance.
I think it is a firmware problem,Mine and others do the same with the standart 2G card...
Firmware keeps updating itself when I go on WIFI connection. I don't know about these stuffs either. But now, the problems are ended..the phone doesn't read any card anymore whether 2G or 8G, it keeps saying that "sd card removed. Insert a new one". I've tried restart again & again but the message doesn't go away and my phone decide not to recognize the card.Both of the cards work fine on computer. I think I need to visit the shop where I bought to check on it. Btw, is that problem considered in the warranty case? I don't know.. It wasn't even a month with me. So sad!

Are you using any app2sd ? If yes, it could be a problem also if ur using an app storing data on your SD card. It makes you're cell restart.
I have the "mount / unmount" problem on my LG, I saw on a french forum that it was better to try with another file system, sometimes it was solving, sometimes not. I don't think it's really a card problem, I gave my LG GW620's sd to my girlfrend and her old samsung is using it without any problem's, but on mine it was crashing every 30mins....

I have the same problem but more problem when my LG O1 didn't recognize the card and I couldn't mount or format the card on my phone.
This happened when I partitioned the card. My PC still sees the card well but my phone doesn't.
I read a lot of posts from a lot of forums and I did try every guides steps by steps but it seemed as the LG O1 doesn't have any button-press-combination as others. For ex: when I pressed Back + Power On, nothing happened as It was said that the phone might come to FastBoot.
As help on this issue will be in much appreciated.
I fixed it. If your PC still recognizes the sd card, it's ok. Go to Manage (right click on My Computer) -> Device Management -> Storage -> you should see your card there. Try to delete volumn or format the EXT2 and Linux Swap.
Put the card back to your phone. It should recognize the card and then, unmount and format card and mount it back. Done.
I have a small question. What is the best class for this phone? The class 10 is fully used by phone or does not reach that read/write speed? Some micro sd class 10 are declared between 20 and 30 MB/S. The p500 has these capabilities? Or a Class 6 card is enough?
Thanks
UP!
The price for 32GB class 6 is very different from class 10.
Lg Optimus One is able to full use write/read speed of class 10?
Thanks
Help! I inserted a sandisk 4gb class 4 and my phone didn't recognized it (i got the 'SD card removed. Insert a new one.' notification). Then, i inserted back the original 2gb sd card from the box, but that notification is still there and it can't be recognized. But both my PC and a another android device (a galaxy tab) can detect it. So, i tried formatting both the 4gb and the original 2gb with the galaxy tab and inserted it to my O1 but nothing has changed. I tried updating to the official V10E firmware but it makes no diffrences. Any help please?

For future, don't remove SD card during phone is running because of app moved to SD card. Especially when you plan insert new one, and if you do that with custom ROM with app2sd its equivalent to suicide.
Is mass storage mode works? Is MS works in curstom recovery? Did you try format memory card in phone? Delete of caches?

Thx for the reply,
I haven't install a custom ROM yet. All i did was enable JIT+HW accel from a thread here.
1. Mass storage didn't work. It just appears as a new drive which i can't access.
2. I updated my O1 to V10E... I lost root, custom recovery,etc. so i can't try that
3. I formated it with another android device (a galaxy tab)
4. How do you delete the caches???? Sorry, new here
You had got me. For now I have not idea how to proceed.
Anyway, remove battery, remove SD card, clean sd card with some soft cloth, check if metal contacts looks fine (try clean that if not), insert SD card, insert battery and try it again.
If this not help, you can try some shaking and so on. It's sounds crazy, but I know one guy whose shaking helped him to flash firmware to phone, which not works at all. Maybe it's some cheats for all these issues.
ad 4) You can delete caches via custom recovery, but related to 2) you can't so, this hint is useless.
I did everything u said. I checked the SD card & the slot and they seem ok.
This might sound dumb, but what do you mean by 'shaking'? Which part are you suppose to shake?? Sorry, im still new to androids
BTW, i went to the LG customer care. The technician checked it and said that they are going to replace the SD card slot. She said that sparepart (the SD card slot) is going to arrive sometime in mid-January due to the holidays.
By the shake I mean grab phone and do quick movements with phone from left to right and back.
But it seems, that you have some trouble with hardware part(s) of phone.
i just recently went to the gingerbread leak rom and it was working fine fir the past week. the message said, Damaged sd card, Sd card damaged. you may have to reformat....
and when i try to mount the sd card by connecting the cables, i press connect and nothing happene\s but the circle keeps spinning for like a hour. please help. i have many photos and work schol work stuff on the phone that i need to transfer to the computer.
Hate to tell you, but you're most likely out of luck. The Gingerbread leak is known to cause problems with SD cards, thats why many recommend using a spare SD card.
I've seen utilities that search corrupted SD cards for files, you might try some sort of tool for that and see if you can get anything off of it.
After this if you want to run Gingerbread, I'd recommned you switch to Cyanogenmod 7, MIUI (what I'm running currently, love the miui launcher), or OMFGB.
I'm not sure if this is related but I will say it anyway. On my Droid X I flashed GB and a week later my phone did the exact same as yours. Error on the phone stating the card was damaged and it needed to be reformatted. I tried to reformat and it would not work on the phone. I tried on my computer and it would not even see the card. I searched for hours and hours and it seems like other's had the same issue. The only way I was able to reformat was to stick the card in my Blackberry and reformat. For some odd reason it picked it up. I did buy a new card just in case and will keep this one for a backup. Always back up your card on your computer on a weekly basis if you can. I lost years of photos.
Anyways I know it's a totally different phone but how weird is it that we both and others had the same issue when flashing to GB. Try to reformat on your computer or even try a different phone if you can. Sorry if this does not help you.

I second that this should've gone in Q&A... However, on your pc google 'piriform recuva' and download as this is a recovery utility that should be able to get back some of your data. You could also try formatting/mounting your card in CWR, I believe nitsuj had some luck restoring a fried card this way

Actually, the SD CARD DAMAGED message always does not mean the sd card is damaged, it only mean the system can not access it.
Try to use a sd card reader on the PC.
Also, there is a huge, gigantic 1559247pt font warning written in red right at the top of the thread that warns you about the rom possibly frying your sd card....
Edit: my bad, I was thinking of the comm rom thread, but there is a warning at the top of the leak thread also.... I don't mean to sound like an ass, but it really helps to read the OP thoroughly before flashing anything

I just flashed antp's CM9 rom and it gave me a damaged SD card notification. My sd card seems to be working fine. I reformatted on the phone, but it would take ages and not finish at all. I tried reformatting the sd card on my pc but it still gets the message. Does it usually take this long to reformat? What can I do to fix this?
make sure you format correctly. FAT32 I believe. That could be the problem....

you will need to format via a pc. find some down time and transfer all your files off the card and have it to do a full reformat and make sure compression is set to FAT32
Well it didnt work, still get the notification, sd card wasn't having any problems though so I don't know why it says that.
I too took a bad flash.and now my SD says blank or to format..so I did(have a b/u on the computer) and several attemptes I realized its my phone not sd reading proper ..refurb rubbish here I come
I had the same issue on neos aokp. I did a clean reflash and it solved the problem. If that doesn't work flash a sense Rom and reflash back to an asop one. Definitely dont format from phone as it may cause a brick. I bricked a phone testing for chad that way. It said corrupted sd card and since it was going back I figured what the hell.

tl;dr rooted S4 not detecting SD card after trying different cards, formatting them all differently, restarting, and cards work in another phone.
I just got this Verizon S4 (SCH-1545), current build MK2 Android 4.3, less than a week ago, and I came from an HTC sensation. Firs tthing I did was put my sd card from the sensation into the S4 just so my photos and music and everything else would be right there. If I remember correctly, Play Music might have saw a few songs at first, but I didn't pay much attention to it. The SD card is an Adata 32 GB class 10. The S4 is now not detecting the Sd card at all. My HTC sensation is detecting it just fine, and my computer is also detecting it just fine via usb to sd card reader. Another strange thing is that using a usb OTG adapter, the SD card is still detected. Meaning I plug in a cable to the micro usb port on my phone which has a female usb 2.0 port, which I then plug the sd card reader into. The S4 detected the sd card then, but not when it is plugged directly into the SD card slot. Other people have suggested other SD cards, I used a SAMSUNG 16GB SD card that came with a Samsung Epic 4G I had from a while ago. This SD card was detected by my HTC Sensation, and my computer, and neither have been detected by my S4. To format both of these SD cards, I have been right clicking them in windows explorer and clicking format. I have tried formatting both SD cards in format exFat, FAT32, and NTFS, and nothing has worked. I have the phone rooted and SafeStrap is installed, booting to Safestrap recovery also doesn't detect either SD card. There are other things that I have tried that I probably forgot to mention, but those were the primary fixes that I found and nothing has worked so far. If anyone can give any suggestions or link me somewhere where my exact problem has been resolved, I would very much appreciate it.
Bump... Update, the other day the phone randomly detected my SD card, soon later it simply stopped. Not sure what it was that made it work though...

The SDcard slot on your phone is broken. What I'd do is to open it up, remove the SDcard, and try compressed air into the slot to see if something got stuck in there (like lint, etc) that's keeping the card from making contact. Other than that, it's warranty time.

Okay and obviously rooting it would void the warranty, I have safestrap installed. Is there a way to return to stock? I actually bought the phone less than 2 weeks ago, and the verizon store is right down the street. If you bring it back within 14 days you can get a refund/swap it for something else, maybe I'll just see if they can throw me another one for a restocking fee or whatever, I don't know... Suggestions?

You can uninstall Safestrap pretty easily. I recommend uninstalling the recovery, rebooting, then uninstalling Safestrap, which will delete your ROM slots. Then, use the Terminal Emulator app to unroot using the info in the Saferoot thread. That should get you back to stock.
Hi,
Anyone having SD card issues?
This phone for some reason does not like my SD cards and I finally had to format it as NTFS then insert it in the phone and let the phone erase/reformat the card.
No card that I have that was already formatted with data will work in the phone.
I haven't had this issue with any other Android phone.
When I first got the phone, not thinking I put my half full 128GB card in the phone from my GS4.
Needless to say, I had some backups but the latest pictures and movies from two weeks prior are possiblly toast.
I'm running a recovery program now.
Note to all: DO NOT PUT A CARD IN THE LG G3 THAT HAS DATA ON IT!!!!!!
You do not want to be like me.

Nope enabled full access.
It's not an access issue.
Enabled access on this phone and my GS4 was also rooted and I was using Xposed.
In my case the card is unrecognized or if it is, it is considered damaged or blank.
I put in a Sandisk 128GB FAT32 formatted (in Win 7) card that I was using in a Galaxy S3 into the LG G3 and it recognized the card and all the existing data that was on it. I am able to at least read from it without problem. I have not tried writing to the card yet.
I use a tool on Windows pc to format the sd card as fat32 since exFat is proprietary to Microsoft which causes different devices to have different standards. No problem at all with Fat32 unless you want to copy a file larger than 4gb over.
Hello. I'm new here and this is my first reply.
But anyway, yes I put my sd card in my brand new Verizon LG G3 and all of a sudden it's wiped. I had to find some way to try to restore my files so I searched xda and found something about Zar recovery from 2011 I think it was. I should look it up again so can send a thanks. I'm copying files to my computer as I'm typing this. Hope I can retrieve everything. If I do I will defiantly look up that post and thank the OP. It's the free version and it's taking a very long time but hey. I started this process yesterday at about 9pm after a couple of failed attempts.

I think my issue was with exFat. The phone didn't recognize it and threw up a fur ball.
My Galaxy S4 was just fine with it.
Note to self -. exFAT is bad on LG phones.

I pulled the 32GB SD card I had in my GPad and put it right into my Verizon G3....read the few pics and videos I had on it, and shows about 28GB of free space. So...I surely didn't have this issue (and it was pics of my niece so if I had lost them I would have been cheesed)
I think the Verizon version of the G3 has a bug with 128GB sdcards. When I pulled my card from the S5 and put it in the G3, it damaged the file structure and needed to format the card. I tried putting it back in the S5 before I formatted it and the S5 couldn't read it anymore. This scenario has happened on more than one occasion too when going back and forth between the S5 and the G3. It never happened with the AT&T version.

I need to manually go the the recovered files before I wipe the card.

Right. 128GB card has problems; 64GB card has no problem. I have tried both.

And only recovered one song and one picture. Oh my god I should have backed up before I messed with that sd card.

I was able to get quite a bit off, several thousand.
What software are you using?

Update: It has nothing to do with exFAT.
I formatted the 128GB card on my Mac with exFAT and it works fine. I've been back and forth between the Mac and my G3 with the newly formatted 128GB card.
I think it had issues from the GS4. I went directly from GS4 to G3 and that is when things went south.
I have transferred more than 75GB onto the card both through the G3 and stand alone with an adapter with no issues.
So I was able to recover most stuff and now using the card after formatting on the Mac with no issues. YMMV, but if moving from one phone to another I would put the card in a PC/Mac whatever, backup and repair any file system issues *BEFORE* using the card in a G3.
Which is good advise anyway.

Anyone wandering around with 32GB-64GB-128GB of data in their pocket without it being backed up is just asking for trouble. Historically, microSD cards are not that reliable.
My g3 had no issues reading my 64gb card, it does however have issues with saving data on to it, anytime I try to dl something and save it to my sd card is says failed no space available, which is not the case as I have around 8gb of free space, its weird because I can dl to internal memory and then transfer it to my sd card without a problem

So it has something to do with Samsung's implementation of exFat. The GS3's exFat was already corrupting and losing files when I first got my sd card which is why I formatted it to FAT32 in the first place. Wouldn't surprise me that the GS4 wasn't perfect either.

I've had the most luck recovering a corrupt sd card with a program called Recuva. Depending on the extent of the corruption there may not be much left to recover, but a second option never hurts.
