SD Card Slot is shot? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

My phone won't read my SD Card but when I take it out from the slot there looks like there is little wires sticking out..
So does anyone know what this could be?
And for the time being is there anyway to remove this SD Card notification?

The little wire you see is a spring mechanism for the card, and what happened to you is likely a bad file you didn't notice quick enough and reformat.

Please explain to me how I can reformat when either the phone or the computer will not recognize it?

Do you have another android/ access to another one? Swap out the sdcard with yours, mount it through that phone, format, and all good
An sdcard reader would work too

No it's worth $50 for something that is faster than Class 10 memory cards. You can add more memory afterwards though. I've noticed my internal SD card blows away my external Class 10 card

Is it bad to move your apps over to your sd card?

It may create a wormhole that could potentially transport you and your phone to an alternate universe -be very careful with this power!
Kidding. Your external storage is there for your convenience and added storage capacity for things such as, including apps, music, videos and pictures. Some apps are written to be stored within the phone's internal storage, but most can be moved of so desired.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
Also, depending on the size of sdcard you have, you could partition the card's storage for applications only, leaving the rest for music, pictures, and/or videos. Just another option...
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
No it's not bad at all. The only thing is the apps moved to the sd will take a little bit longer to load up when your phone turns on.
I haven't moved any of my 135 apps to the sd and I still have .94 GB left on my phone storage
Sent from Flip's SGS2
nope
i use it all the time to save space on the phone, with the thought of it should boot up faster, and only downside i have found is sometimes an app doesnt link correctly with the phone when i reboot or unmount the sd card or link my phone via USB and un link then it sometimes misses an app or too, then i need to unmount and re mount or just reboot.
Not sure if that is just my New SD card messing up or the rom, i dont remember having this issue before. But the sd card i have is a class 10 32 gb.
either way thats the only issues i have had.
best of luck!
what about moving them to the "internal SD" so it uses that partition of the internal storage rather than the phone storage?
Do you know what they say about big SD cards?

AT&T Messages for Tablets

Hello, I hope all are well.
I have a KF on CM9 running gedeROM 1.7 with hash code's kernel (v3)
I was wondering if by any chance anyone is kind enough to post an apk of AT&T Messages for Tablets. I can't download it from the play store, as it says my device is not supported...
I tried side-loading AT&T Messages from my Galaxy Cell, but it searches for a SIM Card on the Kindle Fire and won't load...
I was hoping to try the Tablet version...
would appreciate any information!
I apologize in advance if this threat is for some reason in the wrong location, I tried to put it in the right place.
Thanks so much
Feasf
Lost cause i suppose

At&t uses GSM technology that stores all of your contact information on the sim card of the phone. You would have to have a 3g tablet with a slot for a sim card for something like that to work.

Sorry, it just installed natively on the touchpad. Maybe talk to someone from CM development.

Just odd that it doesn't do a sim card check on your touch pad...don't quite understand...its not a cm issue...it is clearly a sim card issue (as other posters earlier said)... guess something about the con fig on your touch pad allows the sim check bypass

Do you have titanium backup? If so open it and look to see if you have an a2sd partition. If you do then you're golden. Like I said the app isn't compatible with all a2sd scripts

You could do a complete wipe and format. Had a similar issue before, never really figured out the cause, but starting over definitely worked!

Take a screenshot and let's go deeper then! You can browse the whole thing directory by directory and we can find the culprit.
Here is this what you wanted or in a different directory?
