Hello guys. . I have sandisk 64gb class10 card. As we all are aware of problem, it just lasted 3months then frequently unmount n bad card inserted n all those errors
As sandisk cards carry lifetime warranty, so I contacted customer care (im from India) and they happily replaced the card for free (just courier fee of rs.30). I have replaced the card 2 times but still those errors but less frequently this time. I have transferred the data to this latest card but from noon I have got errors 2 times. So, friends what do u suggest ? Should I get it replaced 3rd time or should I accept the fact that 64gb is total failure on note2. Please suggest..
Also is there any way to count how many times card was unmounted while screen is off?

i used a 16 gb micro sd sansa card on my galaxy s,but i got defect after using it for 3 month.
im using a transcend one for 6 month,and no problems yet.
i would ask back for the money,and buy one from kingston or transcend.

I'm looking for some thoughts on a problem I encountered. Due to a problem with the camera, I got a refurbished phone under warranty. When I got it, I took the 8GB micro SD (not the original HTC, but a faster card from Transcend) from my old phone where it had worked flawlessly and installed it in my refurbished phone. Wouldn't mount. Put it back in the original phone; wouldn't mount. Computer wouldn't recognize it through multiple adapters/readers. Not erased or formatted, nothing would recognize it. I know crap happens sometimes. I had an old 2GB card that I installed and it worked with no problems.
I RMA'd the card back to Transcend (which is another story) who would not replace it due to a scuff mark on the edge of the card - physical damage!!!
Anyway, I ordered a new Adata card, 8GB class 10 and when it arrived, I transferred files to it on my computer (so it was working) and put it in the phone. Wouldn't mount. Put it back in the computer and no files could be seen. Ran scandisk, files reappeared. Installed back in the phone, wouldn't mount. Now it's fried, too. Computer won't recognize it anymore. Installed 2GB card back in phone and it mounts and works fine.
I've got a replacement phone coming again from TMobile - it's got to be the phone doing this. But I'm out 2 SD cards. I'll try a RMA on the Adata card to see if I can get a replacement, but I may buy another card in the meantime.
Does anybody have any thoughts on this problem? Why would the phone play nicely with the 2GB card but neither of the 8GB cards? I don't think I can do anything different, but at $15 a shot, I'm starting to hesitate buying a new card to put in the replacement phone when it gets here.
Thanks.
As a clarification, the original Transcend card was a class 6 card. The Adata was a class 10 and I read that some phones won't work with some class 10 cards...

as always, the best class to use with phones are class 4. their cheap and they work good
well, i was hesitant bout the whole "which classes will the g2 work with" situation.
i bought a pny 16gb class 10 and it works. so i dunno if its more of a this specific phone situation over an entire group of phones.
Something is fishy with our SD cards (both my wife and I), since they've somehow seemed to "go bad" about 2 weeks apart. We both have the S3 16GB and I bought two 32 GB SanDisk cards for our phones. Everything seemed fine until about 2 weeks ago when her card went out, then last night my card seems to have gone bad too. All the phone says is it's "safe to remove the card", can't access the card in any way. I currently can't find my adapter to test the micro card in my laptop, but I should at some point. Is anyone else experiencing anything like this with their SD cards?
I had a problem with my 64gb Sandisk card that went bad duing a rom flash. I have EASEUS Partition (can be downloaded free) installed on my PC and the partition on the SD card was missing. I reformated the partition using FAT32 and it has been fine now for over two weeks.
Just a note I now remove my SD card when I flash ROMs. I know it should be safe but it takes a few hours to rebuild 58gb.
This phone fried my 16gb card
What class sdhc is it?

My 64gb SanDisk errored too within the first week. Formatted and working since. Mine stopped working when I changed a battery (yes, the phone was off).

where did you buy the card? also what class is it?
I'm having the same problem with my 32gb sandisk class 4. it was working fine on my LTEVO but the moment I put it on in my GS3 the card went dead.
32GB Class 10 PNY formatted to FAT32 has been flawless for me...and I've used the same sd card in two previous devices (E4GT & Evo LTE)

Class 4 SanDisk and I bought them on Amazon. Wasn't a bulk type card without proper packaging either, it arrived in the mail packaged like what you would see in B&M's. In any case, I'm going to need to locate my adapter so I can attempt to format them.

If it is screwed like mine then the adapter will do nothing... my card is completely fried

I find it hard to believe that there is actually a "bad batch" of SD cards from SanDisk... I have a friend that also has an S3 (Verizon) that said his 32 GB card (not sure of the class) went bad as well. It would make more sense that the S3 is somehow making them bad or not recognizing them anymore. However, most of my assumptions may just be wishful thinking.
I had some problems that I think were more CM9/exFAT support related with a 64gb UHS-1 card. I used this to format it and it's been fine since
So I have had my s4 for 3 months now and am on my 3rd 32 gig sd card. I had used my first with my s3 with no problems for 8 months then it went bad after the first month in my s4. Bought another sandisk off amazon, and within a week started getting an error reformat sd card randomly untill the phone just wouldnt recognize it. Bought another lexar brand this time, and now after 3 weeks I am getting the same error randomly. I am wondering if anyone has ever seen this before, and if so how can I avoid going through more cards, or is it just my phone.
Thanks.

Someone just posted that there was a bad batch SanDisk. Contact SanDisk, if your card is in the bad batch they will send you a new one.

Won't delete or format. I saved most of the stuff on there to the computer. The problem is, it works normal until I reboot then everything that was saved on the SD card is gone. If I delete things on the SD card they appear gone until I pull the card out or power the phone down. Even when I format the card it appears good with 58 gigs free then I restart the phone all the crap in back on there. This card is only 3 months old if that matter. Is there even a possibility that it could be fixed. Also what's a good brand besides sandisk because they lost my support. I lost very important pictures. The worse part of all Is I just gave away my 32 gig SD card last week .

My experience is with the Sandisk Ultra microSD 32GB version of this card. Not a positive experience when i had the card not even a month before it crapped out and went bad. Sandisk replaced it but there were numerous reports of just faulty Sandisk cards all over the place. No more Sandisk microSD cards for me anymore
Ever since i switched brands and started using Samsung microSD cards, no issues so far. There's a good deal going right now for a Samsung branded 64GB microSD card on ebay for 29.99, good deal. http://www.ebay.com/itm/151163389486?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Just ordered thanks. It's cheaper than the Sandisk which was 59.99

Hi guys I was wondering if the Note 3 had a problem that I had in my phone. I had a few SanDisk SD cards in the past and for some reason my Note 2 always ended up killing them. It killed 2 32GB cards that I had in it. After, some time I would start getting errors about the card being unexpectedly removed and the PC couldn’t see the card or the data on it. I wanted to know if anyone has had any issues with the Note 3 as It seems from the research I did it seems to be an Issue between Samsung phones and SanDisk cards. Also I forgot to mention I used both cards in previous phones before the note 2 specifically an HTC Evo 3d and an LG Esteem.
I’m asking because I saw there having a sale on Ultra SD cards for SanDisk on Amazon but I don’t want to spend the money if the cards will be destroyed I as looking at the Class 10 Ultra 32Gb cards.
So far the best cards I have had luck with are Class 4 PNY cards but I was really looking for cards that would give me more speed. The Note didn't kill a 8GB PNY or a 32GB one yet, so it seems this might be a SanDisk problem.
Any Thoughts ?
I used a 32GB SanDisk Ultra for about five months of moderate to heavy use before it had problems. I reformatted the file system, restored a backup, and moved it to a secondary device and it seems to be fine. The replacement in my primary device is a 32GB PNY and I don't think I've had any problems with any PNY cards over the last several years. Both devices are Note 3s.

Yeah PNY is doing good for me but i believe they don't make class 10 cards.

Oh wow I just saw they make class 10 cards now. I will get that then. I'm just to paranoid about Sandisk now.
I have PNY class 10 cards. Maybe it's a new thing for them.

I've been using a 64 gb sandisk mSD...in the note 3 for about a month now and in my ancient r800x for over a year before i got my note 3....havent had any issues even at near full capacity (only have 5 gbs left lol)
I have filled up my 64gb from SanDisk in my note 2 for a year and half, then got this phone on launch still pretty much full lol.
And while it was on my note 2 I was running the script to make my internal storage as the external SD card.

Being full isn't the problem -- it's the number of writes that could cause problems. Some manufactures have more errors than others.
