Sd card problem solved - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I have had the sdcard problem for the last month or so, and think I have resolved it. Under settings, developer options, click on and check protect sdcard, reboot and the problem should be solved.

People were having sd card "removed " problems.
Emiliano, did you read that link I posted in the other thread ? Checking that box might make some apps FC.

Going to give this a shot. I saw the one about a loose connection also but was traveling for the holidays and hadn't had a chance to take my notes apart. Will report back on the results.

I resolved my sd card by using a card other than a sandisk 32g ultra. I went to a samsung card and now it works as it should.

Yeah predation, but tried it anyways, thanks.

So far no issues. I didn't want to spend more money on a Samsung card when I already had a perfectly good SanDisk. Now if you are buying a new card to use in your note, I skip the headache and don't get a SanDisk.

I was using power amp to listen to the music on my sdcard. When I unlocked the phone after about one hour it did the missing sdcard thing 1 time. Have not been able to reproduce since power amp was closed.

So the problem has slowly crept back in. The next step is to feed Samsung some more cash for a new sdcard. Almost as bad as Apple.

Maybe you should edit the title of the thread to indicate that the problem isn't solved...

I had this issue on my Samsung Epic 4g. I found it to be an issue with having too many apps running from the SD card.
I went through several sd cards, reformatted countless times, to no avail. Only after taking a bunch of apps off my card, and using primarily the internal memory of the phone did it finally stop doing the "sd unexpected removed" error. It has been almost 4 months of daily use without a single hiccup since.
Try it on your phone and hopefully it can resolve your particular problems.

I swapped my 32gb SanDisk ultra with my wife's 32gb Kensington class 4 yesterday. Like everyone else I have stopped having the problem. It does just seem to be the SanDisk ultra that has the problem with the note 2.

My sandisk 32g ultra gave me nothing but trouble and then it died. It is going back to Amazon. I suspect a bad batch of cards.

I got mine from Low Lat Plaza in Kuala Lumpur in September. It could be a bad batch. It is strange that it is only the 32gb ultra that is affected.
Looks like it is time to get a 64gb class 10. I was trying to wait till my next trip to Asia in June but now might have to bite the bullet sooner.

What kernels are you guys running? I had this problem last night after flashing a new kernel, I couldn't get my card(Sandisk 64gb class 10) to mount at all. As soon as I flashed back to Perseus it mounted just fine. Random thoughts, just something to check.

I'm having the same issue (SD card removed every couple hours, but not every time it goes to sleep) with a PNY 32gb card, FYI

Any ideas? It will just abruptly stop saving pictures to my ext sdcard and when I use root explorer to see why it has changed from read/write to read/only.

Sounds like the card may just be faulty?
I have had one incident with my current SD card recently where it wiped itself but fortunately it hasn't happened again. I have a 32 GB Class 10 also. I have read of other experiences with QC issues with lesser known brands like "Patriot" (my current) or "PNY". I think for my next one I'll spend the extra dough and go Samsung. I hear those are built like tanks

It could be the card itself. Why not try another card and see if it happens on other cards.

Damnit! Not good news for me. I hate that the internal memory is all one partition. This is ridiculous.

External SD card problems

So today i noticed that my SD card was getting really hot and i ended up getting a sd card blank or not formatted message. I installed another card and it works fine. I put the oringinal card in my computer with a card reader and wont even register. Is my SD card fried? Im on FH13 with exynos abuse root. Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like a dead card. If it is SanDisk, they have a lifetime warranty.

Pointless response UrbanLagoon... thanks for incressing your post count tho... I beleive with 4.3 as long as you format it properly should work fine, I have used usb otg cable as usb external on a 160gb esata hard drive and a 128gb usb flash drive so I see no reason why it wouldn't. I hope that helps.

Galaxy S3 and SD Cards

Hello Guys.
I've seen this problem on a few forums but no one really has the solution that might work for my phone. Whenever I add videos or movies to my external SD card, in a few hours or days my SD card starts acting weird. Some of the pictures get deleted or destroyed and sometimes I cant access my SD card with CWM. When I play the videos I can't fast forward (doesn't let me) and sometimes the movie plays for 2 minutes and then just starts from the beginning again. I tried formatting it several times in fat 32 and exfat and it gives the same problem. I tried using different SD cards from sandisk and still causes problems. I am currently using the 64gb san disk SD card. My phone is SGH-T999. Also, for those who are wondering, I did try different roms.
Any solutions?
Have you tried using 32gb card or less?
The 64gb cards shouldn't be full compatible

64gb cards are fully compatible. If not, they wouldn't work. To the op. Contact SanDisk. I had a couple of 32gbp SanDisk cards do this to me. They sent me new ones for free even though they were 1 and a half years old. Now it works fine. I am using a 64gbp card now with no issues.

Yeah, I think the best solution at this point will be contacting them and asking them for a new one. But to be completely honest, I used a generic one and it gave me the same problems. Then, I thought I should stop using cheap crap and bought a SanDisk and still same problems. I guess the problem is in the device?

My note 3 keeps freezing!

Hey everyone, so I jumped to the HTC m8 and I hated it! Paid the restocking fee and got the note 3 again and my phone lags really bad. I have to either restart my phone or turn the screen off and on. I have until Tuesday before my 14 days are up and was wondering if rooting it and flashing a rom would fix the lag or should I exchange it?
Edit. Sorry I meant to post this in the Q&A section.

Rooting it and installing a custom rom/kernel always helps as you can debloat whatever apps you don't use with titanium backup pro, root explorer,trickster mod etc. I don't see how even with 3gb ram this phone lags, but not every phone is the same I suppose.

When I had my first note 3 I rooted that thing as soon as I bought it! I've been holding off with this phone just in case something was wrong with it. I ended up doing a factory reset and everything seems fine now. I'm wondering if an app or game wasn't playing nice with my phone.

So I think I figured out what's wrong with my phone. I was looking online and read that some people were having the same problem I am. Turns out it was the sd card. I took my sd card out and have been playing with my phone for the past hour now with no freezing!

Glad you sorted it, what brand and class was it? I've had lower class cards make my LG G2X & E4GT lag before.

I spoke too soon.... I had the sd card out all day and when I was browsing the Web my phone became unresponsive and I had to turn the screen off and on at least 5 times until I could actually use it. looks like I'll be going to t-mobile to exchange it before my 14 days are up.
