[Q] creating a gold card. Hit or Miss. - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is it that sometimes I can create a gold card, using the Gold card tool, sometimes I cant?
Right after the Gold card Tool says "successful. now D: is a goldcard", when I change from Disk Drive to Charge Only, the phone can't detect the SD card.
I've tried 3 different SD card.
When I pull the SD card out & put it directly into the laptop, it says the SD card is not formatted.
Formatting the SD card will help the phone accept the SD card again, but if I try to create the gold card again, same thing happens.
Is it the ROM? or is it the apps installed causing conflict? weird...
Please advice,
D

[Q] SD card refuses to recognize!

On my DInc, my SD card refuses to be read even though there is a card in the slot. If I boot to recovery, I can go under Mounts/Storage and Mount USB Storage to copy my ROMs etc to it from Windows Explorer.
But as soon as I boot into the Dinc, the SD card says "Preparing SD card" followed immediately by "SD Card Removed". What's the deal with this?
I've used a great number of ROMs and it simply hasn't worked in a while. I'm currently running Clutch 1.0.
Any ideas how to get my SD card working from the phone again? To reiterate, I can access the SD card if I reboot to recovery and access it under Mounts/Storage. Just not when the phone is booted up for use.
I think your best bet would be to reformat the sd card through a pc to FAT32. Make sure to copy all the sd card contents to a computer before formatting it. See if this helps.

[Q] Galaxy S3 and Computer don't see sd card

So i have a sandisk 32gb micro sd card im using in my galaxy s3. It has been working fine until this morning when my phone started saying sd card had been removed please enter a new one, or something like that. The sd card cannot be seen in TWRP or in any file manager. In recovery i tried to wipe the external card and it just says it cant mount the external card.
I would have thought this was a problem with my phone, but I also cannot see the card when i put it in my computer. Other sd cards work fine on my computer (i dont have another micro sd to test with) but my camera's sd card worked fine. Anyone have a solution? I would be willing to format my sd card, but i cant even access it anywhere.

I hate to say it, but it would seem that your SD card went tango uniform. If another card is being seen in the S III then it is down to that.

In Win7, plug your SDcard into the card reader.
Type diskmgmt.msc into search or run.
Do you see your messed up SDcard in there?
If yes, you can format it, name it etc.
If that fails, find an app online called Gparted. (needs to burn to a CD)
This app works at boot and has fixed my most stubborn drive issues.

[Q] SD Card wont pick up

So my WFS stopped picking up my SD Card last night, when i start the phone up I get the notification thats its preparing the SD Card then I get SD Card safe to remove. After that when I try mount the SD Card from the setting I get the same thing in the gallery I get no SD Card Mounted and it doesnt get picked up when I turn on USB Storage on my computer. It also wont pick up SD card in Recovery, AirDroid or when trying to Download.
The main problem is that I use app2sd even though its ays I have 1.51 gig free on Internal storage I cant access the SD Card or the pictures or ROM's that are on my phone. Is there a way to fix this or just get a new SD Card
Im running Ultimod1.0 and using Data2SD v2 with A2SDRemover by Jikantaru.
Does it work when you use an sd card reader? If it does, then back up your data and reformat the partitions

swapping sd cards

didn't find the answer through search. if i installed an sd card and used it as an sd card and not an extension of phone memeory, can i remove the card and copy the files to my computer. install a new larger memory card and format as internal memory then drag and drop the sd card files from my pc back onto the phone without a problem?
Yes. Just turn the phone off when you take out / insert the card to be safe.
