My wife has been using her et4g for many months and she has a 32 gig sd card installed but can't seem to put anything on it pics, app, etc. I have formatted and mounted it any ideas?

What class? Some low end sd cards wont work as it doesnt allow fast enough write/read speed
i have the same problem. it's from amazon, and made by amazon, 16 gb class 10. it used to work find on GB but after the ics update, I can't install any apps on it, but i can move files to it
Things don't save to external by default. I've always used mine as a backup, to unload crap from the phone's memory to it. I don't know how to make things save and use the external, if that's possible.
Perhaps its a bad card. Have you tried it in an adapter on a computer or another device? If the card works it could be something else.
I doubt its the class affecting it unless its a really cheap POS.

I believe it's a class 4 or 6 the phone can see it in the menu /settings /storage section and you can mount and format it there. But we are unable to to move anything to it

Have you formatted it with Windows or with the formatter from the SD Card Association?

I guess phones can be finicky. One of my old phones didn't like a card. I don't remember if it was my evo or epic, but one of them didn't like sandisk or Samsung cards. I've got a pny 32, forgot the class, and its not giving me any problems. Never heard of a card not accepting files. You think maybe the rom might have a snafu in it? I don't remember if you said she was running custom rom or not. Try a different brand. If it still does it then the phone might have a hardware problem.

I purchased a Sandisk 64GB micro SD card through Amazon. I got the card and put it in my phone and the phone said it was damaged. It wouldn't mount the SD card to format it. I tried to format it with my laptop, but it would not give the option for fat32.
I did a Google search and found this.
http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/index.htm?fat32format.htm
You have to use Dos commands, but it formats the SD card to fat32 in about 3 seconds. Needless to say, this has to be done on a Windows computer. Mine is running Vista.
BE CAREFUL! IF YOU AREN'T PAYING ATTENTION, YOU COULD FORMAT THE WRONG DRIVE AND MESS UP YOUR COMPUTER!
(If this is in the wrong place, please move to the correct forum.)
I'm sure most of you already know how to do this. I just figured I would post it for people that don't.

If it won't format in the phone, it may be defective. I went through something similar, I ordered a 64gb class 6 card off Amazon a few months ago. It was made by "Komputerbay" & had good reviews, but would not format at all in my phone. Wouldn't even mount or anything. I sent it back & ordered a Sandisk, and it formatted in my phone right away with no problems.

It's not defective. I'm using it in my phone right now. I find it interesting that people are able to mount this card in their phone when, out of the box, it's in a format that the phone doesn't recognize. Also, without a workaround, you aren't supposed to be able to format anything over 32GB to fat32.
This is my understanding after reading up on it anyway.

I have followed the tutorial and have formatted it, but windows still reports a size of 27.4GB which would mean 32GB.
I have a class 10 64GB card, i can format it in exfat no problem, just not fat32.
Any ideas?
Just in case someone has this problem
I was trying to format my sandisk 64gb that was formatted in exfat but I was having an error message saying that the card was being used by another program but there was nothing using it. What I did was that I formatted it with windows 7 to NTFS and after it was done I used the program again and this time it works. To make sure I put my card in the phone and formatted it with the phone also. I tried to formatted it in the phone before and it was formatted but it stayed in exfat. I want it to be FAT32 because the clockworkmod recovery touch can't access the card formatted in exfat to make backup. Now I will try it with fat32 which they say it will work.
Try to get another recovery like twrp, it let's you use your external sd.

question is, where did u buy the sd card it might of been a fake, their are multiple sdcards which look good and real but overall are fake due to the ability to operate in heat, so it might of overheated and crashed(died) its a big issue with fake sd cards out there, they usually go out or burnt due to not being able to take the heat of the phone. On normal operate the sd card should be able to take 40 to 45C which make it 90-100 Ferenheit, if its a real SD card it should be able to take more then this and reach upto 65+C or around there.
easy ways to spot a fake is if ure saving files on ure phone and it says u got a class 6 or class 10 sdxc card and its operating less then it should, it crashes on u when trying to open a file or it resets itself and tries to scan again for it. in many cases it will get too hot and burnt out, or it just stops operating out of the blue.

I bought the card from Adorama (a photography focused site) in April. SanDisk is letting me RMA the card (just got that approved last night). I just want to make sure it's not my phone causing the problem. Up until the "unexpectedly removed" error, I never had any issues with it crashing or having to scan for itself again (unlike the class 4 I was trying to test the card slot with right now).

If that's the case have u tried varies card readers or card ports to see if it could be the unit itself..... However if it does out that way, I believe scndizk does back this up with a lifetime warranty if ure sd card does stop operating and then should be able to replace it.

Even so the gs3 should be able to read ure 32gb flawlessly since it's supportive to sdhc, now it does also supports sdxc which is expected from higher performance sd cards to not be able to read or install correctly on the gs3 unless u format to extfat or fat32. Chances are u might have a bad sd card. By default their storage capacity is 32, after that, that's where u need to take does drastic measures. Try formatting it on ure computer, if it doesn't format then ure gs3 should read it, if it doesn't format u already know.
Had the same issue with my S3.
Turned out that the SD card was dying, this caused it to be unmounted by itself and then mounted again (sometimes showing notification “sd card removed unexpectedly”), hence triggering the media scanning process.
I created an application to monitor how many times the SD card was removed, and turned out to be unmounted every ~3 mins!!!
I then bought a new Transcend 32GB Class 10 card, and until now, this never happens, no reports from the application whatsoever, and no media process eating my battery.
I just published this app in the play store now, this is the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sdcardmonitor
This card used to work regularly for about 4 months then one day my phone said it dismounted and it became defective since that notification. I returned it due to the warranty and got a a brand new card from SanDisk. My computer reads it (and I formatted to FAT32) but, my phone refuses to even see it. And yes I attempted to format within the phone in the settings and it doesn't even say its mounted. Any possible suggestions? I tried everything it seems like. Thanks
well what rom and kernel are you running? that helps.
is it only that card or any card?
have you looked for any dirt or crud in the sd card slot. try blowing into there.
are you sure you have the card clicked in all the way? past the point where it springs back?
Here's another suggestion. Load a new rom @asop or touchwiz and if everything but your phone detects it still then you probably have a defective card reader.

There is a thread on the forum about this very issue. Android runs a system thresd called media server and it runs every once in a while. When it is running, it will thoroughly thrash your sd card, by reading and writing. You can notice this behavior when you boot or reboot your phone; your phone is sluggish and laggy for the first few minutes-media server is running, reading the entire contents of your internal and external storage AND writing a new databse of what it finds.
This unnecessary thrashing dealt by the media server results in eventual ruination of solid state memory cards.
You can disable the media server by instaling and running an app called rescan media root. You have to root your phone to use it.

The same thing happened to my friend, and it turned out the replacement SD Card was also defective. Have you tried Card swaps with another device to verify?
So Im going on vacation here in a few days and was downloading my Amazon prime music to my 64 GB SD card and then randomly after I was done downloading it it gave me a error that said the SD card was blank or had file types that were unsupported. Now when you go to the storage location under settings it would act like the card was not even mounted and would tell me to reformat it.. So I've done that twice and re-downloaded and still the same issue. Now this happened on my Note 3 with a compactly different SD card.
The SD card in my note 4 is brand new is there something Im missing? Its getting super annoying. Because when I have apps to the sd card and pics you cant seem to retrieve them. Is it possible that after I use 32GB of space on that card that anything after that corrupts? Pretty sure that sounded stupid!
I had a issue on my camcorder that i put a 64 gb card in my camcorder when it stated that it supported up to 32gb and anything after that corrupted,
Any suggestions>?

Sounds like you're using a counterfeit SD card. They're usually a smaller card (8GB or something) hacked to make it appear to be a larger capacity (say 64GB). When you put the card into a device, it reads as the larger capacity. When writing to it, it can only write up to the actual size, then loops back to the first sector on the card and continues writing.
So basically, in your case, the card may actually be 16GB or something. When writing to it, the card will fill up the 16GB, loop to the first sector, and write over what was just written. It'll do this 4x! (4x16=64). So this will corrupt your card and give you these problems.

I prefer Sandisk, Samsung, Sony, or Kingston. Buy at a brick and mortar store though. Don't buy online. Well, you can buy online, but do it from brick and mortar store websites (like Best Buy). It's the only way I've found to guarantee not getting a fake. Fakes are especially on Aliexpress, Amazon, and Ebay. Avoid those places for sure.

Sorry, but I don't know anything about unlocking. I only know about sd cards because of personal experience. I've bought many cards over the years and many were fakes or crapped out on me in under a year due to poor quality. I've learned where to buy and where not to, trustworthy and untrustworthy brands, etc.

My PNY 128GB has been doing that too. It would show the message and when I check on it, sure enough, it's unmounted. So I took it out and formatted it in another phone and it's slightly better. I get the unmounted message, but the card stays mounted. I'll probably try a different card tomorrow.

exFAT Default allocation should be fine, but you can just format it in the phone. If you run into issues, try FAT32. If you still run into issues, try another card.
I'm going to try a reformat today, see if it works
I've been on a clean reformatted card for about 2 hours now, so far no error. I haven't loaded back up yet though.
My pny only gave me problems when I was writing a lot or something big to the card.
I swapped mine out of 4 different phones, then into this one, so it's no wonder it errored

It has been fine all week but all of a sudden from yesterday morning it has started playing up.
I have tried RE seating and it works for a little while then complains.
I have also found just restarting wakes the card up for a little while so am wondering if it is software related rather than physical?
I don't know, I did a full reformat on my laptop, then formatted it on my phone and haven't had any problems since.

Did you reformat as internal memory or just a standard format?

I just tried reformatting mine in my phone as internal memory, but it is failing to recognise the card as U3 which it is supposed to be.

I did it as external.
