Anyone else having problems with sd card stopping? I get toasts saying that it has been removed. Doesn't seem to have moved. Removing and reinserting brings it back but only temporarily.
Just wondering if it is my card or my phone.
Thanks
I'm trim Androidnow 2.0 with n update.
I'll try backing up data and reformating with TWRP to see if it helps and then I guess i'll try another card.

Probably a bad sector issue with the card, Have you tried mounting it as a USB storage device and running check disk ? If that doesn't solve it it would be better to partition the sd card and use the good sector. I have a cheap sd card 32 gig, I can recall having similar issue then i partitioned it to 16 gig losing the other 16 gig of storage . My sd card is working great .
Thanks! It turns out it was a Now Rom issue. Been fixed in latest build.
I appreciate the help though!

Are you rooted? If so, what ROM?
I've come across this on Fresh 3.2. But I don't think it is the ROM's fault. I noticed I got that error every time I used the HTC Bookmark widget. For mine, it gave me that error then said sd card is damaged. (I'm using the stock sd card.)
Try to format your sd card. Make sure to save your files first, since it will delete everything. Also, when you go to format it, connect your phone as a disk drive, then right click your sd card and click format. Then select a long format. This will take a while.
Also, what I did was delete the Bookmark folder on my sd card. (Just in case.)
Lastly, check if the card is securely in the slot. It may have moved.
Hope this helps, let me know what happens.
Thanks for the response, but no, I am not rooted...I fixed the issue myself...I actually scanned the SD card for problems from my pc and it fixed and recovered the bad sectors ..My card is back working normally.

I had this issue on a 32gb card and this did the trick for me. Just go to Menu/Settings/SD&PhoneStorage. Then pull down the notification bar and tap where it tells you that the sd card has an unexpected problem, while it is working to solve it quickly tap Unmount SD Card on the previous screen a few times, this should allow you to format the card to the phones specification. That should do it.
im currently running cm7.
i have an htc EVo.
i was backing up my data on this 4GB to move it on a 8gb micro sd card. i deleted everything on it and ejected it. i put the 8gb in and suddenly it did not work any more. neither did the 4gb mico sd card. my phone says that the micro sd cards are damaged. i have several other cards that wont read. idk why... i tried plugging the micro sd cards up to the computer and the computer wont recognize them. it tells me i have to format but the format always fails. i there a fix for this? im starting to think that cm7 is damaging my sd cards. i have important things on their to me and i would love to recover them.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
*UPDATE*
the 4gb i currently have will work in my old phone. it is a samsung highnote. but when i put it back in my htc evo it still says that it is damaged. i rebooted in clock work mod and it read this time. i was able to mount the 4gb sd card in usb storage from CWM(Clock Work MOd).
Try formating it on your pc

Hey,
Yeah sometimes that happened, now do other micro sd cards work in it?
What I would do is put the card in your computer I prefer linux but you can do what you want, or even your phone if it will mount it in recovery then just do a full sd card wipe and that should get everything working for you! If you still can't get it to work PM me and we will figure it out!
If I helped hit the thanks please and thank you!
The SD Formatter program from the SD association can nearly always format a card when nothing else can. Now, the data on there may not be recoverable though. I learned that the hard way too a while back.

It couldnt reformat my partitioned sd card though! but besides that that program works great!
I have had similar issues. My SD card was working amazingly well until I rebooted my phone to show someone my splash screen I had installed a few days prior. When it booted up it said the SD card was damaged. I'm not sure why....but sure enough it was toast. I couldn't even mount the card in order to see the files on my computer. Thankfully my motherboard was able to see that the card was there, just inaccessible, so I was able to run File Scavenger and get all of my files off. After that I reformatted my SD Card and went about my business.
Ok. Here is the scenario. Was on stock rooted LCJ. SD card working perfectly there. I flash to MIUI after doing a totally clean wipe and I'm able to access the SD card via the rom and PC when I sync. I go into recovery and do a full wipe and then flash CM10 with gapps. CM10 loads up okay but i notice that i have a notification that the SD card is broken and I should try formatting it. I attempt to sync the phone to the pc via USB cable but only the internal storage will mount.
I go into recovery and confirm that TWRP can still see the contents of the SD card. Having confirmed that TWRP can see the SD card I do another full wipe and then restore my stock rooted LJC. However, after restoring LJC the SD card issue persist. The phone does an error check but it doesn't fix the issue. It recommends that I format the SD card which I don't want to do and don't know if it will work. I attempt to sync the phone to the PC with the USB cable (which has always worked) but only internal will mount. Go into recovery and the SD card's contents are still showing up.
Also, I have a Kingston Media reader which I pop the SD card into and connect to the PC. Even using this media reader the SD card is still not being seen and the PC says the card should be formatted. Basically the only damn thing that recognizes stuff on the SD card is TWRP.
Anyone have any good advice on this topic? BTW...I have a class 10 64GB sd card. As mentioned above I never ever had a problem with this thing. Have always mounted it to the PC w/o a problem and has always appeared on every rom I have ever tried until trying CM10 today.
41 views and not one person has any input? guess i'm going to have to format the card and hope that works. really sucks balls. wish i at least knew for sure what caused this problem.
had the exact same issue. I had just purchased a sandisk 64 gig the week before and when it happened I had a hard time believing it was the card that went bad. I had no luck recovering anything off of the card but did format it and it has worked fine since.

its not the card...............its the formatting of the card. it has to be formatted fat32 for it to be recognized in cm10. stock format is exFAT
I had the same issue with my SanDisk 64 GB drive. I went back to Synergy and the card is recognized in that ROM. I can't get CWM or TWRP to recognize the card though. I get an error whenever I try to access the card from recovery. It sucks that I have to put anything I want to flash on internal memory
Hey Guys, I seem to be experiencing a problem with the usage of my micro sd card and paranoid android. The sd card is a Patriot 32 GB micro sd hc class 10. When the sd card is not inserted, my phone behaves as expect (responsive and fast). When the sd card is in the phone, the ram becomes maxed out and it is too slow to use (takes 20 seconds to unlock, apps lock up, etc). Any ideas on what is going on? The sd card was a fresh card that I formatted as fat 32.
Thanks
Kyle
Mm that sounds very strange. I recommend you format the card via the recovery on your phone. Maybe you can format your whole phone and put on a clean and fresh rom. I think your problem will be vanished.
Maybe there are other solutions, but I don't know. I'm curious to know though. Maybe there's someone with a better solution?

So far so good, thanks for the suggestion. Formatted everything from the cwm mount menu. Thanks! Just had to start from scratch again.

nice to hear
I have an LG G3 D850 currently on Fulmics 5.2. I have never had this issue before but maybe someone here has run accross it. 2 Days ago I realized that my phone was not picking up my SD card memory. Today I decided to check it out to see what it was. First, I tried it on another phone and it picks it up just fine. All my files are there so it is not the SD card itself. I then thought maybe something got corrupted on the rom I am using but when I booted into recovery, it doesnt pick it up either. Could it be that the SD card reader on my phone is fried? What can I do to pin it down to the exact problem?

can still be the sd card backup your sd card and format to ntfs then to fat 32 on pc and see if that helps, also try a different sd card if you can. from personal experience a newly bought 128 gb wouldn't pick up until i formatted to a different filesystem than the fat series, or try a low level wipe on the sd card (extra careful with this one 1 pass only first 100,000 sectors)

But the weird thing is that I have been using this SD card for over a year now without a problem. So the first thing I thought was that the problem was with the SD card card until I put it into another phone and everything showed up fine. So the problem seems to be with my phone, either related to hardware or software.
To try your idea of the backup and format, what method do you recommend?
