Do you mean you can't reach them thru the stock gallery, or your file manager, video player, or all of the above?

Bcuz I am thinking of replacing this g2 with another but since my sd card seems shot does that mean I can't or re-root because I don't have the contents that came with the root??
Ps. I have backup roms but don't know how to put it on the what seems to 'dead' sd card. =Ditamae;19386527]Do you mean you can't reach them thru the stock gallery, or your file manager, video player, or all of the above?

Have you tried putting your card in an sdcard reader on your computer to rule out it being your ROM/device?
If your card is dead, then just buy a new one; you won't have your data but you'll still be able to root your new device if you chose to buy a new one.

I have this same problem. Data off my SD Card will get randomly deleted. At first I thought it was because I used a particular app or when I sent a file as an attachment.
I've tried multiple SD Cards with the same results.

Flash another rom, Myn's rom supports the cam in 004.
Same thing happened to me and I went thru 4 evos In 1 week all of them did the same thing. So I thought to myself I am extremely unlucky but then realized that there was one thing all of my phones had in common, my sd card. I saved my pics to my computer and reformated my card and sure enought it worked. So try reformating your card or try a different card and if that don't work go to sprint and raise hell.

Reading is hard, he said he is not rooted.
And yes, I had this same problem happen, after reformatting my SD card all was good. But make sure you backup your data to your pc, so you can transfer back after formatting.

Take all the pics off of your sd card and format it with the evo then replace the pics into the DCIM folder and you will be fine. It has happened to me too on my replacement phone too.
I tried format didn't work but if I put pictures back in it should work
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I have the same problem as well and I can say with confidence the sd card is the problem. I got a new evo and a new sd card all was good until I copied my old files to the new card. The camcorder stopped working until I formatted the card then it worked. Afterwards I copied my pics only to the card and it was working fine. When I moved some apps to the card it stopped working again. I'm not really sure if it's a single app that's causing that or moving apps to the card is the problem.

I'm facing a weird problem with my SD Card...it keeps saying mounted as Read only. Everytime I change its attribute via properties. After mounting the same problems are shown again. M too sick of it, I can neither play songs or view stuffs. Help

You haven't knocked the little tab on the actual SD for read only have you?
Does the SD work on laptop/pc?
If it does is it read only or writeable and if so full format it.

It works on my pc. Infact after no proper solutions i've formatted it, but it haunts me again...i cannot format my sd card all the time. What is the cause of this....anyone?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using XDA Premium App
When you disconnect the sdcard from the pc on disc drive mode, ensure you "eject" it from the pc first, then change the phone connection to charge only. By doing it this way, you can minimise chances of corrupting files. This maybe was part of the problem?

Don't think Micro SD cards have these. Does sound like a corrupted SD card to me, so yes make sure you unmount it before unplugging the phone
I dropped my phone the other day and my gallery and all the other apps that require my sd card say no SD card detected. I've tried two different cards and am convinced it is broken or not functional. Has anyone had this problem? If so, any fix for it?
Update: I booted up in to clockwork and it read it there.

Do you have a PC access to a SD Card Reader?
You could copy all the files off; format it (fat32) and then put the files back on and put it back in the phone.
I've already tried a different card and it didn't work either

If it reads it in clockwork I would try Odin to full stock and see if it works there. Best method for finding out if it hardware or software.

SD Card loses detection
My Samsung Epic 4G's SD card loses connection at random times. In the middle of recording a video, or when idle, and it will not restore full function until I restart the phone.
When it fails, I cannot take pictures or video, or view my gallery. It says no SD card detected. When viewing the "My Files" folder or storage space meter, it still shows the card's folder directories, the files in them, how much free space is available, and I can open and view individual files and photos from there, but I cannot delete or modify them until I restart the phone.
It could not be connected by USB to the computer through the phone. It made connect and disconnect sounds rapidly and repeatedly.
The card works fine and transfers files to the computer with the MicroSD card adapter.
Disconnect problem persists after I removed all videos and photos to free 95% of the 16gb card's space.
Should I reformat?
okay so i put a 2gb sd card in my s3 for music. someohow it ended up switching my gb around. my sd card has 12 gb now and my phone devices says it has 2?? i took out the sd card and it still says i have only 2gb /: am running v.03 ROM... now i cant access my gallery or music becayse i have low storage -___________________-

Do you have anyway to connect it to a pc or another device to see if it isnt just your particular device.
Yes I do.

Try inserting your sd card into your PC to see if it can read it. You may need to reformat using FAT32.
It could also be a sign your sd card is on the fritz. There are a TON of threads that discuss SD card issues with the SGS3. (As a matter of fact, I had a Sandisk 32gb go belly up on me last month.)

I had a similar problem. I think you need to use Kies to transfer files from the PC to the Phone. If you want to transfer directly to the card, you need to remove it and put it in an SD Reader.
sounds like a bad sdcard, reformat the card if it is readable on the PC, if not then it's time for a new one. SdCards go by pretty quick these days it seems.
If it is just bad, and I reformat it, will it wipe everything on it?

I've been lucky, I'll be next probably.
What brands are you guys buying? I have two 16gb AmazonBasics Class 10s in 2 S3s, no issues yet. I've come to really like AmazonBasics stuff. I buy the HDMI cables all the time. Always the newest specs, almost always the cheapest.
Ok, something strange happened.. just for grins I went to drop box and exported some pics to my sd card and it shows in the gallery as sd card with those pics in the folder. However, when ya try to mount sd card, it still said safe to remove.

Spend the $15 to get a new card already. My 2c. Even if the card isn't the issue, it's a not a huge loss. Will need it eventually.

That's what happened to me with my Sandisk 32gb Class 4 card - I was able to get it to read/write/format on my PC but it wouldn't co-operate with my phone. After a few tries with the phone, I tried again with my PC but to no avail - it ended up going belly up. Ended up exchanging it for a new one.
However, I bought a Topram 16GB Class 6 card (recommended by another XDA member) and I'm trying that one out now to see how long that one lasts.
