help please

hi ppl if i change my sd card my phone wont start, i tried installin new rom with new sd and it stops in boot loader, i have changed everything including radio rom tried with different versions, any help?
thats called a bootloop, and its probobly because your other sd isnt a gold card..
u r rite dude, my other sd is not a gold card but it used to work with that sd its just this week i removed tht sd for some reason and when i inserted again it stopped working and i had to search for the sd with gold card, some how it was with me safe so i am being able to use that, but i cant live witha 2 gig sd card on my desire any chance i can make it work? or do i have to go through root process again?? but remember i cant turn on my phone when tht 8 gig sd is inserted. thx for replying

please insert an sdcard before using camera

Hello,
I opened camera, and I can take just one foto, if i want to do one more its shows :
"please insert and sd card before using camera" The thing is, that sdcard is there, its original(came with phone).
I took a few photos in the morning, everything ok, i didnt do anything with phone all day, except for writing sms. And now in the evening it started to show this error, what happened? Apps which are on phone works good, and i can listen to music(music is in SD card) too. So everything works, except camera. Why ?
I dont want and dont have time to do format/factory reset :/ . What are your suggestions ?
have you tried another micro sd card ? have you tried it on another device eg a camera ? ( by the looks of your problem it may be your sd card )
1.my suggestion would be for you to copy all contents of your sd to your pc then format the sd card and transfer contents of sd back to to your sd .
2. under settings on your desire unmount and remount your sd card
a phone reset is not needed
Just tried friends SDcard. With he's card camera is working good. So now i have to format my card ?
FIXED WITHOUT FORMATING !
I putted my SD card to friends phone and then back to mines. Now everything is working as it should be.

[Q] SD card suddenly not recognised and causing the phone to hang

Has this happened to anyone?
I am on GB. THe SD basically causes the phone to freeze when i try to access any of the settings. What are my options here? to reformat the card? i looked at the card on a laptop and the contents seemed ok. THe SD card is a sandisk Class 10 32GB card. I haven't installed any new apps for the past couple of weeks so i don't think this is a problem

I`d copy everything off the card to my hard drive , then reinsert the card into the phone and reformat it via the phone software , then let the phone set itself back up with the empty card and see if it works . But...that working around the issue (if it works) , the root cause I`d guess as a corrupted setting on the SD card . For the record , mine sometimes throws a stroppy (every couple of months) and says the card isnt there , the tried and tested turn off/on worked for me .
b/Have you copied any program across to the SD card ? I`d try copying them back to the phone

SD card is always corrupted after 6.0 update.

My SD card is always corrupted. I tried using different SD cards even i bought a brand new SD card and it is still giving me issues . I did a factory reset and still does the same. Anyone else with the same issue?
What's the capacity and speed of your SD card? How are you formatting the SD card? Do you use it preformatted or format using the phone? The reason I'm asking is it seems to me that Sony has set a too low timeout values for formatting and mounting the SD card. So if your card is very big or not fast enough, the phone would timeout too early when formatting and/or mounting the SD card on boot, thus causing it to be detected as corrupted. At least that is how it seems on my phone.
perhaps have reset your phone from previous backup ? if this is the problem already happened to me ,
They are both high speed cards 10 cards Toshiba and Samsung to be more specific. When i format them they seem to kinda work at the beginning i even managed to copy a video file but after a phone restart it gets corrupted .
MM updated through xperia companion here, seems to be working normally with the old microsd card
Hi Team,
I also have the same issue here, whenever I move applications to SD card (Samsung Class 10), the application stops working and I have to
reboot the phone to have it running again. Though it happens only... when phone is from Doze mode, turned on the screen with power button, and after turning on mobile data and run the app like COC or Viber it crashes. Now this happens only, if my application is in SD, if it's on the phone it's working fine.
Hello everyone.
I also have this problem. I have a Sandisk ultra (red and grey) 32gb class 10 sd card, and my M5 on 6.0 cannot format it at all, first it says it's corrupted and I have to fix it, then the format screen is stuck on 20% and after a while it says the card cannot be formatted. The card isn't counterfeit, and it worked flawlessly in my m4. It was replaced under warranty because I presumed it became faulty, and I still have the same problem. There is no problem with it on my PC. Also the phone freezes when the card is removed and I have to turn it off with a paperclip on the small "off" button.
You have sd card restrictions on 6.0, so you can use it for media, can't move apps... I've got Transcend sd card class 10, no problem at all.
I know about the SD card restrictions but my card was working fine in 5.1 for storing photos and videos taken by the camera applications . Now i have tested even more cards and they all have the same behavior. Even with an 4GB and 8 GB Toshiba cards and an old 2GB transcend card.
tonev, how are you formatting the card?
On the phone it self. Also tried to format it on my laptop , Same result. Sometimes it works fine and after i restart my phone it gets corrupted again
any news or fix here? seems we're stuck with this sd behavior? can't really move apps to sd card?

Is it correct to assume that you restart the phone only using the default power menu and not using any third party interface?
Another thing, it is not advisable to format the SD card using Window's Format function. It is possible to damage the SD card this way. The safest way to format an SD card in Windows is by downloading and using the SDFormatter utility. I don't know if formatting you card in Windows is what has caused your SD card to be corrupted, but it is something to be considered.
Yes i do restart the phone only by using the default power button. menu. And none of my cards are corrupted because they work fine on other devices. As i said before a brand new never used genuine samsung SD card does not work on the phone.

Sd card problem

i just bought a EMTEC Micro SD XC 64Gb card and it was running fine in my phone but now every now and then it pops up saying that the sd card was not removed correctly mean while i never even tried to remove and sometime my computer wont pull it when i connect my phone to transfer file to you. Ive been trying for the past hour or so to try and convert the SD card to Internal Memory and no luck , I m running LeeDroid the lastest MM Verison.
EDIT it finally Came up saying that the SD CARD i was using is to slow to be used as internal, which is very weird cause i only bought the sd card cause it said it was lol just my luck lol
