i leave my phone on overnight as usual.. and when i woke up this morning it told me that the sd card had been unmounted, which was weird because i did not touch it at all. so i had to reinsert the sd card and to play safe i tried running apps, however on first "click" of angry birds after reinserting the sd card i had to FC htc sense cause something happened. after it restarted the name changed(along with some other apps) to different names, with angry bird being renamed as com.rovio.ka3d.App. However some apps like CurrentWidget and paper toss still remained.
Can anyone help me solve this? Like how do i restore the apps etc.
I'm using the default sd card that comes with the phone
Probably your SD card is starting to break down. Have had the same symptoms and in the end my SD card broke down.

I was trying to take photo's with my desire, but I was recieving a message saying that the photo's couldn't be saved to the sd card. I was a bit puzzled as I knew I had more than 3gb of the card left. Anyway I decided to go into the storage settings of the phone and sure enough according to my phone the total space on the sd card was 0 and the available space was 0. and it also showed that the internal storage was 64.02 mb.
Anyway, I decided to take the battery out and remove the sd card, and then I reinstalled them. When my phone had restarted I checked the storage settings again and my phone is now showing that the sd card has a total of 3.69gb with 3.43gb available, and also, my internal storage is now showing that I have 78.44mb internal storage available.
Can someone shed some light on what may have happaned.?
This happens on Android sometimes. Just removing and reinserting the card will fix it 99% of the time.

If that's the case, then perhaps next time it happens you could try unmounting and mounting it (ie in software!). Would safe the hassle/risk of taking the phone apart each time.

Just out of curiosity, how to you mount the card after unmounting it? I looked everywhere but had to take the card out and insert it again....
I get something similar, but it's not free space related. Sometimes after unplugging my phone from my PC while being in Mass Storage mode, the card is mounted in read-only mode. It's an odd behaviour that only gets fixed if i replug it into my PC and remove it again.

Uh..yeah, just noticed there's no mount option. Odd, being a Linux device. You're going to have to unmount then reboot.
Perhaps this'll become possible when Android supports installing to SD card.
I've been experiencing the same thing this weekend, but I've not used my phone as a storage device, only battery charging. A reboot fixes the problem but not ideal! Is this a HTC phone issue or Google Android problem? It needs to be addressed!
I am also concerned about internal storage space as it seems to either decrease or increase for some reason. For example, yesterday I had 78mb free internal storage space, earlier on it had dropped to 67.04mb,, than an hour later it went down to 66.25mb I have since switched my phone off and on and now the internal storage is at 80.1mb. I am assuming that the internal storage issue is maybe to do with caches. Would this be correct.?

I don't know, but memory is supposed to be used. Android should be keeping stuff in memory so that it can be used quickly when needed rather than loaded/initialised from scratch each time. Depends on the OS really. I'd suggest not killing tasks and rebooting just to maintain a lot of free memory for the sake of it. If there's a problem then it needs to be fixed but I've not heard of anyone running out of memory and having trouble loading stuff after 24 hours after a reboot.

Same problem for me ... until I found the "SDMount widget". No need to reboot anymore.
Happened to me twice with my 32GB card, now don't take this the wrong way, but I'm glad to see others have experienced this with lower capacity cards!
Thanks for the headsup about the Mount widget, should be very handy.
sdmount ........ thank you for the heads up

I recently purchased a 32 gb SD CARD from play, but for some reason it is being funny. When i transfer some apps from phone to card other does but when i look into it on the file explorer its show only one folder LOST. Also it gives me card full status too but i haven't put anything big in it?

ive been having some problems with my note using memory cards properly as well. mainly with the camera app.
occasionally i would take 20 odd photos and film 30 minutes of HD footage, but the moment i tap to go on gallery, nothing has been added. when i go to check storage, no extra space has been used up. the only way i can get my device to save data again is to power it down, take out the battery, put the battery back in and power it up again. quite frustrating, but perhaps see if that fixes your problem?
Whats the speed of the card?
It is class 4

So last 4 days my phone was randomly rebooting on its own about 15-25 times a day but no battery loss during reboots I tried formatting my phone and installing different ROMs and even going back to complete stock. Nothing helped then i thought about the one thing I hadn't done take out the SD card and what do you know the random reboots have stopped. So since in knew it was isolated to the card I formatted the card thinking it would solve the problem but once I put the SD card back in my phone it began to reboot once again. So does this mean that my micro SD card is done for ?

I had the very same issue. But my phone didn't reboot it just restarted (hiccup), without the boot. I took the card out and reboot normally. I entered sd card, it restarted. I too, formatted the card. If you Google this issue, they're many fixes. I saw a YouTube video where he put the battery in and out, making connections and he said that worked for him. Another fix was letting it boot with wifi off. Mine continued until someone mentioned cleaning the battery terminals. I cleaned both my phone and battery terminals with a qtip, and now boot up normally -no more restarts.

Make a log cat and ask a dev to look through it?

Alright I have rebooted with WiFi off. I always have it on (home ) after cleaning the connectors with a q-tip. And doing that putting the battery in and out. So far (only been about 20 mins ) its running good. I'll update if anything else happens

It still reboots. I'm going to take it into the sprint store today.

I keep seeing a message saying sd card was suddenly removed, and then it reactivates the SD card and everythings fine, and sooner or later, the cycle keeps repeating.
I saw this happening in the last week or so on my galaxy s3 i had before the note 2, so i know its not the phone and its the card.. but i was wondering what i could do to maybe fix this? I already tried formatting the sd card once, but im thinking maybe this card is permanetely damaged somehow?? Anything I can do to kinda get it to stop acting up or am i out of luck?
If you can backup the contents of your SD card to a PC, try this video...

This is apparently a recurring issue, it happens on my 64gb uhs1 card too, and its a genuine card. I still haven't been able to track down the cause of it, and it's fairly annoying. The card just locks up and ignores commands sent to it and the kernel times out on it and sees it as dead. No actual data loss or anything.
yeah.. i feel like everytime i turn the screen on i see 'preparing SD card'
im thinking it has an effect on battery too.
Well it has been asked many times in this phone's section why it reboots. Somewhere I've read that it might be the SD card. I got Kingmax 16gb class 6 Micro SD hc card, and I've noticed after I install some ICS or the "official" 4.1.2 jelly bean it works fine at the beggining. After I put the music and pictures on SD card which take about 4gb space it continues to do well for first few hours (once even a whole day) and then it suddenly restarts. After that first restart the phone starts restarting more frequently like 3-4 times a day, and it annoys me. Is it maybe the SD card problem? And is there any way to check it?

remove the sd card and use the phone without it, if it still restarting on its own . The rom you're using is the problem

Thing is I often need the phone, and it has low memory on its own, that is why I didn't use that method

Well I did remove, but I didn't use it for more than 2 hours like that, not a whole day.
Try another memory card with different class
And play song on third party apps like google play music or poweramp etc..
Try memory card on different phone & check memory card is damaged or not
Dump the memory card on water (do it your self i am not resposible for any damage) dry with clean soft cloth
If not working this method
Reset your mobile
Flash your mobile or goto service center
