Using the pre-installed stock Samsung Class 2 micro SDHC 8gb
Constantly getting this error from the DHD:
"SD card unexpectedly removed"
Symptoms:
1) Usually happens after installing / removing apps.
2) Tends to re-boot by itself after "hang" after about 10 seconds
Note the following items:
1) USB Debugging = ON
2) SIM card is fully inserted
3) SDHC card is fully inserted
4) Using stock ROM
5) PC Error Checking (bad sector) = No error
6) Have tried to format the SDHC. Result = same error
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot tis ?
Is the pre-installed SDHC card at fault ?
Thanks
Another thing you can try is to check with another card (New or Old)
If it still does it....then there shud be some problem with the card holder unit or something...get it replaced mate
Had the same issue. Think your SD card is broken. Mine was. Couldn't even get it to work on a pc. Tried a new SD card and the problem was gone. Just got out of the Vodafone store. They replaced the SD card under warranty.

I've got EXACTLY the same problem. It's bloody crazy!
I read that the phone may not be able to cope, as it's only a class 2 card - but I don't think that is correct, is it?
I've contacted HTC, and they just told me to take it back to the store and ask them to check it out. I'll probably do that in a week or so.
it just happened to me!! randomly. everything was fine and then suddenly it just failed on me. any clue why?

Bundled Samsung SD cards with the latest OTA update are known to fail, search for more info in other threads here to see if you'd qualify for a warranty replacement.

Been happening to me on the stock Samsung class 2 8gb... anyone encountered any problems changing to a class 4 card?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
when I woke up this morning I couldn't access any of the programs on my sd card (SanDisk 16GB Class 2 SDHC), when I rebooted my desire HD the same thing happened. I tried manually mounting it, rebooting like ten times, inserting, ejecting the card etc, nothing would work.
Can't be the phone just smashed a 16GB card over night :/
YES....!! Gggrrrrr! it just happened to me last night. I rebooted my phone after installing some different Apps throughout the day (as is usual in my Android daily life). then after the phone rebooted about 30-45 seconds later i saw the "SD Card unexpectedly removed", thats strange i thought. Couldn't get past that after about another 4 reboots i removed the SD Card and tried it in a card reader on my PC. similar thing, I could ready the file structure on the WIN PC but then about 30 seconds later the drive disappeared and was no longer available. I then re formatted the card (started the process withing the first 30 seconds) and thought that would fix it. Now neither my WIN PC or Desire can read the card. also tried in Lynx Puppy environment but no go.
I think my 16GB Class 2 card is TOASTED. Was it because it used an Ext4 Partition on the card for the past 7 weeks? I heard some people in the site saying that Ext4 can damage your SD Card...?
Had the same problem - lost all my unbacked-up data. Quite disappointing. Bought a new micro SDHC and hasn't had a problem since.
So it's the SD-Card then?
It's happening to me most of the time and it's really anoying!
Yep time to buy a new one.if your luck and still able to access your old card then get it backed up quick.......before it goes tits up.

Just visited the HTC customer center last week to check on this issue. Seems like its got to do with a bad batch of cards.
They replaced an identical Samsung microsd class 2 8gb card to let me use for a couple of days. Told me that If I was to still encounter the same problem, it could be problems with the card reader chasis, and I'd have to leave the phone with them for a couple of days.
I'm happy to report that I have not had 1 single "SD card removed unexpectedly" since I got the new replacement card.
I highly suggest for people facing the same problem to get their cards replaced by the seller or HTC.

I just have the same problem like yours.
I tried many way and methods, It just can't working fine!!
so I buying another sdhc as sandisk 8G class 4
now I have no problem for two months so far.
I am reasonably to Suspected...
that the problem happends cuz this garbage samsung SDHC!!
Change it now! you'll feel like:[what a wonderful world~]
The "telus" version comes with an 8gig class 4 card but upgraded to a 16gig class 10. No problems either way.
Guess Canada nipped it in the bud
I was going fine with the stock 8Gb card and then I replaced it with a class 10 16Gb card and after about a week it started randomly ejecting. The card worked fine in other devices and can always be read in Windows but I guess it's only time - I have had another card go in the past and it's a real downer.
I'm not convinced it's the card. I've tried uninstalling any suspect apps but it hasn't made much difference.
Formatting the card and replacing all the files kind of works but I have still had one random 'eject' in the last 48hrs since I last formatted.
Actually the problem seems to have started when I re-flashed my current rom - Android_Revolution_HD-4G_4.0_beta4
Wish we could find out what is going on here.
Having the exact sample problem, but with a 16g card that I bought several month ago. I have another 16g card, will swap and see if the problem go.
I had this problem as well
So I formatted the SD Card and had the problem since...
however sometimes, it cant seem to recognise some pictures in the card, so i use SD rescanning app...
Heard someone saying this was caused by an OTA, well I had a warning around 2 days before the SD-Card Un-Mounted saying that the Card was in Read-Me format... anyway 2 days later my SD-Card became un-mounted and then became comepletely useless. I was unable to mount it or anything, going to get my dad to ring up HTC, as we rung my carrier and they said the problem 'had never been reported' which is bull**** as theres enough people here with the problem...
Blank SD card.(unsupported file system)
i try re-format it. but after awhile the problem just keep coming back.
i think the problem is the phone ( XPERIA ION OF CAUSE ) is putting something inside that cause it to have problem.
Note: i format it...(start from clean)
put some video inside. ( cause it happen before so i don't want to put a lot of things )
works fine for about a day?
i try to open the video by the photo widget, fail. video cannot be played
i reboot phone

Are you formatting the card with the phone or in your computer? Have you tried you phone with a different card? Maybe you have a damaged phone, same goes for the card. I got a 64 GB card for my phone, and had to format it with the phone before being able to use it, after that I haven't had any trouble. The only thing is that every time that I connect my phone through USB to my PC (Win7), it tells me the card is damaged and gives me the option of scanning and fixing it or ignore it. I choose ignore, but it a bit annoying to do it every time.

sounds like you have a faulty micro SD card, I had the same problem when I tried to put one into my blackberry. It worked fine on my computer but when I put it into my phone I kept getting errors, eventually it just stopped working all together.
I have a 64gb card and no problem at all. Pop it right in format using phone and just never have any problem with phone or laptop

Your phone came with a memory card?! Mine didn't.
Back on topic, I have had similar issues. I found that is I keep the phone in mass storage mode, and dont allow the internal memory to connect to the computer my issue goes away. I have ICS installed. So long as my internal memory does not connect, my issue has not come back. Give that a shot and see if it works for you as well.

I had this issue once with my OG Dinc. The card just stopped working in the phone but still works fine in the computer to this day. I would bet on your card being faulty.
As for the Ion sd card I feel cheated as mine came with a 4gb card. ?? Got it at Boo Buy also. Lucky for me I had just picked up a 8gb card for another Dinc I acquired.
I too, have the same problem. I have to reformated my card a few times since I got the phone (just about a month). My card is fine, but after using a while, it became unuseable even in my computer. Reformat it, everything's fine but a week later, it came back! I'm on 2.3.7.

Could just be the card. I've had bad ones from the start, had good ones go bad, etc..
I have a generic card that would not work at all unless it was put in to an adapter, and then only sometimes. I've since put it into my Zoom H2 recorder where it seems it's the only place it wants to work full time.
I personally won't buy any off brand SD cards anymore, Sandisk only for me, have yet to have one of these crap out yet.
Make sure you are unmounting the phone in windows before you unplug it. That is what corrupted my card on my incredible.

I see. I'm living in Vietnam, those brand-name cards are so expensive. This card I've used for more than a year with my old Arc, class 10, without any problem. Since it goes with my new Ion, there comes problems! I'm saving money to buy a new card based on your advice! Thank you so much!

Mine didn't come with sht! wth???
Probably is the card though, I've had similar issues in the past, none with Ion though. Sdcards can be rather fickle and hidden files can get stuck on there much like on a flash drive. I have a box full of flash drives that are irreparable.
Try replacing the card first. Also I usually let Windows repair mine when it asks. Seems to help. eb

I had a strange problem happen to my SD Card on my SG3. I have a Patriot 16GB class 10 card that I used on my EVO 4G for a almost 2 year without a problem. After when I got my new phone I clean all folders that I no longer needed except my pictures and some applications. Put the card in my SG3 and everything was OK. I was able to copy files take a pictures and everything seems to work the way it should. Last week I was on a trip and during the process to taking a picture I got a message that my card was removed and basically disappear. I reboot the phone and nothing happen. then a little bit later I saw another message that card was found and everything show up again. Then I check do I have all the pictures and most of them were there except on a last one was (when card disappear) basically it was look like that picture was taken a half way. So I delete that bad picture and continue. A day later it happen again but this time when card show up again instead a normal card I have that message in notification bar with a little sd card that it says Blank SD card. then if I pull down and click on it phone is asking me to format the card. I try to mount the card but got the same message Blank card or unsupported file system. Ok so I didn't have at that time my adapter to plug in to my laptop and wait until I got home to try to repair the card.
Here is what I got now and I'm not sure is phone damage the card or card slot on the phone is not good.
I use minitool under windows and GParted as well under linux. Both of them recognize my card as 60 GB Unallocated space (it is a 16GB). when I try to recreate or format both of them said successful but card is not show up. I have to plug it back and then it goes again as a 60GB unallocated space.
Does any one know how to format a 16GB card as FAT32? I mean the settings I have to use to put to get back again this card as a 16GB not as 60GB.
Sorry for the long explanation and thanks for you help in advance.
P.S. I' not rooted and on LG8 update.

Windows will format it just fine under Disk Management. The fact that its reading it as a 60GB... I'd bet on the card as bad. I have hours and hours trying to save thumb drives and SD cards. 97% of them had no hope. Sometimes the card reader can act up... but not likely, and the phone's kicking it out too. Try to stick with Kingston or SanDisk even if you have to pay a little more. Yes, Cards do go bad like that.

Thanks for the reply. It is look like that this card is going bad. It kind a surprise me since I didn't have any problems under my old phone. I will play a little bit more to try to repair it but....... looks like will be a lost a time.
Do you think that because it was a class 10 card causing a issue? I saw a couple treads but most of the SD card that people use are class 4.

When I first got my SGS3 I used my old card from my OG Droid. I got an OTA update and my phone quit working (I got the "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped working" message). I took the phone back and they asked if I had ever had an SD card in it. I said "Yes, my old card from my Droid." I was told that this is a "known issue" with the SGS3 and that any SD card I used should be formatted in the phone itself. I'm not sure if this is the issue here, but it might be.

Hi guys, I just encountered this problem twice tonight. First, it said "the card is damaged" or something like that then all my photos disappeared (I managed to recover all of them using a recovery software). I formatted and check the card with command promt in windows. Everything was fixed then I put it back to the phone. After a while playing around with it, it said "sd card suddenly/unexpected removed" and again, photos disappeared. I've had this phone for 4 months and never had this problem before. no idea what was going on. I looked this up and it turns out many people used to have this issue with their S3. My card is 32Gb sandisk class 4. Any ideas? right now it's working fine but Im scared that it might corrupt again.
I'm not sure why you formatted it when you put it into your computer, unless it didn't give you an option but i had the same problem happen to me last week and what fixed my problem was I would have my phone's backcover off while tuning the phone on with the microsd card not inserted and after the phone fully boots up then insert your microSD card and it should fix the problem or it did for me atleast, give it a shot.
My s3 still recognized the card. The card was not dead, only the file were corrupted. I formatted it since I thought that would make it "new" again... I also checked bad sectors with windows. Right now it's working fine, I'm just afraid it might happen again and corrupt my photos.
Is class 4 too slow? I have a class 10 SanDisk 32gb but I figured testing it would be a waste of time since I had 4 straight months without problem with this class 4.

When you first put the SD card into your phone months ago, did you format with the phone or the computer? It's always recommended that you format from the phone, before you use it; because it can cause weird bugs down the line. Also, are you running any customs roms or is this happening on stock?
Well I don't remember if I formatted it. I'm on rooted stock JB. I've had this card for 5 months and it has stayed in my s3 since august. There were a couple of times I took it out without un mounting (I didn't know there was an option to unmount it), but that was like months ago. I've done a little search and actually, this is a pretty common thing.

It has worked fine since last night. I just reformatted it again by the phone. Hopefully this won't happen again.
Had the same issue with my S3.
Turned out that the SD card was dying (the card brand is Team Group), 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 and significantly draining the battery.
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 (made in Korea), 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
I had the same problem with a 32gb SanDisk class 10. Files would corrupt, it would occasionally not mount correctly, and I'd frequently get the SD card is Damaged message.
For me, it seems like it was simply a faulty card, as I have an 8GB and 16GB card that both have worked without issue. I sent the 32gb into SanDisk for warranty replacement.

Hye everybody..im having a small problem with my n2..my external sdcard sometime get unmount automatically after unlocking to home screen. .anyone having this problem?

Yes, it's been happening to me too when unlocking the phone (and seemingly more recently over the last week).
Using a Sandisk Ultra card and on the standard 4.1.1 ROM.
Let me guess, you are all using sandisk ultra cards? These cards appear to be a real pain in the a s s . Mine, (bought new off Amazon in October) went tits up and I believe it was the card that somehow caused corrupted files and caused my "media" process to be a complete battery hog.
About a week before the card totally failed to be recognized by my computer or my phone, I got those random messages about my sd card being unmounted and then it would just automatically scan it as if I had just inserted it when in reality I never took it out. I was able to copy everything to my computer about an hour before it was complete toast
I suggest you copy any important files on the card to your computer or wherever before it completely fails. I don't know what to do about getting a new card. I already filed a warranty claim with Sandisk but I am hesitant to use their brand again. Sandisk seems to be THE brand out there. I would like to try another brand.

I suggest you copy any important files on the card to your computer or wherever before it completely fails. I don't know what to do about getting a new card. I already filed a warranty claim with Sandisk but I am hesitant to use their brand again. Sandisk seems to be THE brand out there. I would like to try another brand.

Let me guess, you are all using sandisk ultra cards? These cards appear to be a real pain in the a s s . Mine, (bought new off Amazon in October) went tits up and I believe it was the card that somehow caused corrupted files and caused my "media" process to be a complete battery hog.

You explained well.... same sad story!!!
im using transcend 32 gb its work fine in my note but its not work properly in note 2
My views on this issue
I have started facing this issue since the past 3-4 days and here are my views that can also serve as valuable information for everyone else:
- This error message started to appear only after I upgraded to android 4.1.2 by flashing the stock rom via odin.
- Im also using the SanDisk Ultra Class 10 32GB card
- I have not rooted my phone after upgrade and my phone is in fully stock condition, although it was rooted before.
- I dropped my phone once. But it was a very minor drop and everything was fine after the drop as it was on 4.1.1 at that time and i was on the same for further 10-15 days and never witnessed the error during these days..
These things should also be considered-
- The method of copying data from PC to phone. I use data cable and copy to the folders while the card is in the phone.
- Whether you remove the card without unmounting it.
I have tried formatting the card from windows using fat32 setting. It didnt help.
Formatted it with the phone and still saw the error once in the past 24hours..
In future, if I encounter the same problem, I might get the card replaced by visiting the sandisk service center here in India. Or, I can try flashing 4.1.1 again and revert back the result. As of now, everything seems to be fine as I have not seen the error for about a day or so.. (Fingers crossed)
