Hello,
Problem with the SD card.
If you start from sleep mode appears card was removed and then can be used again, see on status.
This has been adjusted after a few weeks.
What could be the cause.
:crying::crying::crying::crying:
I am also seeing this issue, it looks like card is unmounted and mounted again automatically....
What do you mean by adjusted after few weeks? you don't get it now?
I am still trying to find out why its happening, might try to format the sd card and will try...

I meant earlier was the SD card mounted, and I had always unmount any mount.
I have already formatted the SD card, itself effectively.
Is it still happening after formatting the card?
Also have you formatted the card from recovery or from system settings

Hi,
If I format the card, the same error occurs.
I'm going to swap the card and test.
Let me know how it works out
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
OK, I think I am able to resolve my issue. I haven't seen that message for last one and a half day where I was seeing it 2-3 times a day.
Here is what I have done. I have removed the card and formatted it from the laptop, reinserted it properly again and format it again in the phone.
I think the key is how you insert the card, there can be some tension in the strings which can push the card back, so make sure while inserting it is going in properly and there is no friction while inserting.
I will post if it doesn't happen again for another 2-3 days...

Pull sd out of phone and use a card reader to see if it can be read from the pc. If you can read it with the pc, copy all your files to the pc and then format the sd fat32. Once formated put the files back on the sd and put it back in the phone and see if it works then.

have you ever pulled the SD card out of a device before Unmounted it? Sounds like the the chip inside is dead. There are some places that you can take it to and they can pull the info off of it. its not cheap but they do exist. It all depends on if you really want the info off of it or not.
Have you tried "SD Card Tester" from the Market, Or H2testw 1.4 for the PC?

me too. I would like to know how to recover data from it if anyone knows.
I've had this issue ever since upgrading to ICS. It will say sd unexpectedly removed, or corrupted sd card a few times per day. Tried a new sd card, and got a replacement phone from T-Mobile..still does it on every Rom I use. Quite annoying. But, I have found that taking out my battery and holding the power button for a few seconds to drain all the juice out seems to bring it back.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
It means that the sd card is formatted to something that its not supported by the phone. I had this problem before, save all the data on your computer, make a folder and name it sd backup. then on the phone do a factory format only on the sdcard. or you can do it on recovery, it will format the sdcard too. then move all your stuff back from the computer and you're good to go
Dude I tried NTFS ext4 and fat32

I have this same issue and I run the stock rom. Has happened on 2 different cards now, with the last one making the card appear unformatted. I have to use data recovery software now to get all my stuff back. I'm thinking about getting my phone replaced as it's a couple weeks from 1 year old.

it happened to me again while i was restoring apps after loading a different rom. this time, i put it in a card reader and ran chkdsk /r on it, and all my files reappeared. so i back it up this time. i am not sure why it happens so much.
i had this with one of my sdcard not long ago. i copied all the data from the sdcard to my computer and formatted the sdcard using another phone and put the data back on it and never had an issue since. i probably could have used the s2 to format while i was troubleshooting but it got fixed before i could try.

If you can save all your files to computer then let the computer format sd card to default fat32 not ntfs. Then move files back to sd card and it should fix the problem. I have done this method several times and it worked for me.
Hey guys, I did a quick search and couldn't find an answer. Basically, I'm having trouble with TWRP -- it won't mount/recognize my SD card at all. All the advice I've seen so far is to format the microSD card as fat32. Unfortunately, this fix doesn't work for me, as my SD is already formatted to fat32.
Are there any other alternate options?
Thanks!
EDIT: this is on TWRP 2.3.2.3
you probably need to update TWRP. If you rooted using the Galaxy Note 2 tool kit, it's a slightly older version. Here's the thread on TWRP, which you can find the latest version.
I think i'm on the newest version. I updated it a couple days ago using goo manager to 2.3.2.3, which seems to be the newest one
that would be the newest. I had that problem till I updated. My SDXC card is formatted in NTSF. Maybe, you need to reformat it in your phone.
yea, I'll try that. wish me luck

I'll check in a little bit phone is dead and cycling battery. But my 32gb showed up. Are you sure you're not changing it to show external storage
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
you need to go into advance menu, file manager. Then you need to look externalSDCard directory or similar name. That's your SDXC card. Don't use that external/internal option in one of the other menus.
This tends to be case in some of the file manager apps as well such as ES File Explorer.
ok, so, it seems it's not under external_sdcard, but under sdcard. So I guess to access the sdcard i have to go through that. Thanks for the help
Is there any way I can change the default backup location for TWRP to use the SD card? I can't backup to internal storage since I don't have enough space
I had a similar issue with this 2 days ago. ..Could not mount the 64gig sd card in trwp but works fine on the phone. ..I updated to the newest twrp yesterday and that resolve the issue. ..

Hidden in plain sight, really not that hard to see lol. If you can't take the 3 seconds to look where it says internal or external you shouldn't even bother trying to worry about it simple as that.

Tapping on "use external SD" just has it snap back to "use internal storage" and the error message "unable to mount '/external_sdcard'" comes up. So no, it's not that I'm blind.
I have a t989, running Jedi Jelly 5 using a 32gb Sandisk sd card.
Every 2-3 days my sd card says it has an unexpected error and is blank and to reinsert another one. I check, it is inserted and it is indeed now blank. Then it will just keep mounting/unmounting itself. This will not stop happening and I have no idea what to do. I can format it in recovery which will stop it from mounting and unmounting itself, for the time being. Then, in a day or so it will erase itself and unmount itselfs again and it just repeats the cycle over and over until I format.
Please, anyone have any idea on what is wrong or what I can do to fix this? Before Jedi Jelly 5 I was running Jedi Jelly 4 and never had this problem.
Thank you in advance for any help whatsoever.
Either format it or try another rom. That's a weird situation.

Normally formatting will work for the time being but now I can't even format it. My computer won't recognize the sd card and formatting isn't working in the phone. It says it failed and says the sd card is blank or has unsupported content and to reformat, but I try and keep getting the same "failed" error. So now my sd card has been wiped clean and won't work at all. I have no idea what to do...
I just put in a different sd card, a 2gb SanDisk that I had in another phone, and the "blank sd card..." notification went away and all seems ok.

Been working fine for over a month now all of a sudden the SD card appears to be randomly mounting/unmounting itself and has become unreadable on my phone.
I've put the SD card in my PC and it works fine so I suspect my phone has developed a fault. I hope I don't have to get an exchange as it's otherwise faultless and I'm dreading getting a unit that can't be S-Off'd
I haven't modified or installed anything prior to the fault developing,
Any tips would be most welcome.

well, a simple solution is to enter recovery and see if the sdcard works there if this way it works, change the rom/perform factory reset, if this doesn't, well, you might try to flash everything again, but i's possible that the sd slot is broken...
i wish you all the luck, let me know
I would copy EVERYTHING off the card to a PC and do a format and try a different file system. I would has perform the format on the phone, to make sure its gets formatted to the correct file systems.
Long story short, It sounds like you memory card is starting to get Corrupted. I have to SanDisk cards that started doing that in the biginning and ended up not being read at all on PC nor the Phone.
Also while its doing that, youll also notice the battery start to drain more, at leasst thats what happended on my Note 3 when I had the san disk cards going corrupt.
Ended up buying new Card and now everything is fine.
I doubt is the card reader built in phone, more then likely its your memory card going corrupt.

I agree most likely the card. I'd download an sd card format tool and do a full format, don't use Windows format then do full check for bad sectors. I had a similar problem and it was the card at fault, but strangely worked ok on the pc.

Thanks for all the advice.
I could read the card in recovery but it failed to format there.
I tried to format in windows but my only options were NTFS or exFAT, no FAT32. But this failed anyway also.
Downloaded a SD format application but this said the card was write protected and to move the lock switch, obviously MicroSD has no switch like standard SD.
So next I deleted all the files on the card and ran h2testw test. This failed and reported card is probably faulty.
Then I checked the contents of the card again and all the original files were back again, so it's definitely 'Donald Ducked'. I was able to get all my files backed up and fortunately I had my photos already thanks to Dropbox & G+.
So I will now look at getting MyMemory to replace it but my fear is they will want me to return the faulty card but it has sensitive information on it that I can't delete. Any ideas on how I can wipe it?

How did you attach the card to the pc? Try a usb card reader and then try again. If still problems download mini partition tool (Google) and delete the partition. You can then wipe it properly.
I reformatted the SD card from the settings within the phone and since then it been working fine :\
make sure you're using 2.0USB also..
when i connect my phone to charger
Its been few days i am noticing when i conmect my phone to charger it says 'sd card removed unexpectedly or either it suddenly stops showing content from my phone, then i have to go to settings unmount/mount the sd card frkm storage option and then it shows the content even when charging, or sometjmes it doesn'fshow option for that so on that case i have to restart my phone.
