[Q] sdcard big problem 607T rooted - Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl

Hello to all, please I need a big help here... my is a 607T rooted, , only a week with me.. I bought 2 sdcard already 32gb .. and still same problem such is:
All my music and videos was there. .... I played fine... I restart the tablet... now are gone. .. only a few pictures. .. and all the carpets and files has like a u symbol. .
With my first micro card,, the same,, also I did format with the same tablet... copy my files and the same. ..:crying:
Please there any mod or something ? Please
All the best for you. .
H.

I seen this issue with fake SD cards, as I had a 64gb that did this. Only thing I car recommend is formatting the card fat32. Much more stable over all. Did this on my 64gb sandisk and I've never had an issue, 2.5 years and still going strong.

mine killed 2 64GB cards - one PNY and one samsung. i'd like to think it was just coincidental, but two, brand new... right after the other. the 32 GB works fine.
it started having some of the same problems with a third 64GB but i removed it before it killed that one too and put in in my asus t100 wintab. no problems with it there.
my tablet hates 64GB cards! it's freaking evil! lol

I don't know what to say. I bought a fake 64gb Samsung that was packaged and looked legit from Samsung. Never used pny other than in PC's and laptops. Sandisk has always been my go to and never an issue. But, for large volumes on SD cards I don't trust ext/4, stability issues. Thus my fat32 formatting. I've been doing that for external USB hard drives for use with automotive head units for mass media storage. Not one issue yet to date, volumes as large as 1gb.

SD Card Unexpectedly Removed

I'm having the dreaded 'SD Card Unexpectedly Removed' issue. The card seems to work fine in other devices, but my Note 2 cannot deal with it. Mine is a SanDisk 32GB Class 4. It was working fine for weeks, and now all of a sudden, it loses the card every time the phone goes to sleep. Once the phone wakes up, it flashes the warning, then says 'Preparing SD Card', and it works fine until the phone goes to sleep.
I noticed that many Verizon Note 2 users are having the same issue...

Is anyone else seeing this problem?
It did happen to me with my sandisk 32GB class 4 card. I swapped it with a 16 GB card from a 2 year old
moto droid unused in my basement dump and it worked. It has been over 3 wks now and no issues. I dont think it is a device fault but sense that many note 2 users have bumped into this issue lately..something fishy.

I had this problem also. I had 32 gb class 10 sandisk sdcard 1st time I bought this phone. It was working fine for the 1st 3 weeks but after that I got that dreaded message everytime I wake my phone. I thought its my phones hardware but when my brother and I swapped cards, that message never appeared again. I currently have a 16 gb class 10 sd. My brother has tmobile galaxy s2, that message showed after 2 days of using that card. I reformatted that card and checked it for errors multiple times. There was no problem. I dont know probably some samsung phobes have issues about sdcard 32 gb and above. I have read it in galaxy s3 forums also.

I'm actually having a similar problem with my sn2 not reading my 32gb SanDisk card, I'm going to try to reformat it and see what happens. Just got the phone two days ago.
I fixed my problem by installing the new twrp 2.3.2.3 recovery using goo manager. I followed these instructions from the twrp website.
In goo manager tap menu on your phone and hit install openRecoveryScript, tap yes, verify filename displays your devices name and hit yes. The file will download and install on your device, now reboot.
Hopefully this helps people
I have a sandisk 64gb class 10 I havent had this problem as of yet...

I'm just gonna throw this out there... It kinda seems like the latest Samsung phones are happily corrupting SD cards right and left. Now, maybe some cards are more susceptible to this, but the fact remains that this is not just anecdotal anymore. We need to get the various phone groups that are seeing this issue to band together and contact Samsung for a fix.

My Sandisk class 10 32gb card died on me too. Went to best buy exchanged for another one, reformat it. ... so far so good.

Mine worked fine for a while, too. I'm not sure what triggered it, but I think the phone did something to it. The reason I think this is simple. I have had many devices with SD cards in them, and never have I had one go bad. This phone was using a card that I had used for months before in another phone, and within a month the card was bad. When I looked online, I found hundreds of cases of the same issue, mostly with Samsung S3 and GN2 phones. It seems too much to be a coincidence.

I am having the same issue. It is with all SD-Cards I try after some time. I have 2 32gb Sandisk class 10 that I tried and a handful of 2 and 4 gb class 4 and class 6 cards. After sometime, 20 minutes to a couple of hours I starting getting the "SD Card unexpectedly removed" Then a quick scanning s Card message. I tried formatting the cards with different computers and even using my Linux machine to see if it would fix it.
Has anyone come up with a solution yet? Should I swap the phone out for another one since I have ruled out the SD-Card as being the problem.
My 14 days hits this weekend and it is easier to get things done at T-Mobile before that time frame expires.
How about card format? All fat32? Exfat?
All fat32 for me. Phone is stock, holding out on root for awhile so I can learn why Touchwiz is so hated.

Maybe format on your computer in exfat, maybe make a difference?

curious about this as well.
you guys not having problems, you format exfat??/ what is the difference between exfat and fat32?
I tried ExFAT, but the phone did not recognize it at all.
I wonder if anyone has had this issue with a Samsung brand card?
Swyped from a hand-held Galaxy.
Im getting the same problem with my 32 gb sandisk sd card but luckily amazon is still willing to exchange it out for me
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
I formatted mine to exfat to see what would happen. I checked online and this phone supports exfat natively. I moved my files back on to the card after the format and then tossed it in the phone and it worked. It has been over an hour and still has not removed itself unexpectedly.
Will report back in tomorrow after I give it some time to settle.

It is still removing itself almost everytime the phone goes to sleep. The last time it actually unmounted and tols me it was safe to remove the sd card when I woke the phone up.
What cards are people running? I have 2 I am testing this with:
SanDisk ultra 32GB SD-HC U1 (comparable to class 10), 1 is formatted to exfat and is half filled with mp3's, the other is fat32 and half filed with mp3's.
The mp3's are different on each card, I have a folder of music that I always throw back on the card but thought it might be corrupted so last night I made a new folder and added fresh music to see if that was the issue.
I found the official sd formatter program from the SD Alliance to try. I just formatted 1 of the cards with it and am moving the music back now. It will be a while though. From sd to computer the speeds are 12 to 30 MB/s but from computer to sd it is 2 to 5 MB/s?
Hope to have this figured out by the end of the day.

Micro SD Card Problems

I seem to be having trouble with my SANDISK 32GB Class 10 micro SD card. When I first got the Note II in November, I had a PNY card that was giving me trouble, so I got the SANDISK card to replace it. it's been reliable until this morning, in that the card lost all data, and even after reformatting it, it seems to work for about 10 minutes, thenphone does not recognize it. It's been trouble free for almost 3 months.
I seem to read that these SD cards on the Note II is extremely unreliable in general. Perhaps I need to switch brands. What would the very very very best brand of the micro SD card would you recommend? What micro SD card would be the most durable? I've always thought that SANDISK was good, but how about other brands? I'd like to keep using a 32GB Class 10 card if possible. I'm looking to use a card that will last more than 3 months.
Also, I'm completely stock on my phone...as I did not do any rooting.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. BTW...I love the Note II!!
Thanks,
Mike

I had a samsung 32gb class 10 that would keep resyncing by itself after a SD card failure. I thought it was my card going out so I bought a new one to replace it. After a day or 2 with a Sandisk one I noticed it doing the same thing so now i know its not the SD card but the reader. Havent figured out a fix yet
A class 10 64GB sandisk card has been in my Note 2 since the day I received the phone. I haven't had any issues with it, and have about 20GB of space left.

Open terminal command where your car is at and format the card (I use fat32) then type
F dsk /h
Worked for me no issues since

my wifes 32gb sandisk also crapped out. didn't work in her phone, my note II, or pc in several different readers. tried for a few days and nothing. i put it in the pc a week later and up pops the card. quickly d/l everything off the card.
so weird
I can't believe a reliable card made by Sandisk is giving issues, guess I'll get a samsung card next time.
Had the same issue with my card, removing and re attaching constantly. Got SanDisk to replace it, just took about 7 days turnaround time. New one is still working fine. Let's hope it stays that way.

Contcted through their website first, then called their customer service number for their site. It will go faster if you tell them it is mounting and un mounting in your phone and doing the same on your computer. Because my computer would register it, I they wanted to wait and see if it would fail on my mac. I believe the response to my online query through their site got me response to send it back. They sent me a packing label and everything.
Sorry to ramble, but go through their site and you will have a new one in about 7 days.
If none of this made sense, sorry, I'm tired. Pm me questions and I will do my best to be more clear. Good luck.

I've been having this problem as well. I figured it was just an issue with the phone because the card works ekse where. One thing I've noticed is when it says the sd card has been removed I can go into my files and pull up what I need. I just can't go directly into the app to open it (I.e. gallery or music player).

I have tried everything they suggest to fix it, multiple reformats, both internal and with a computer. Once it starts doing that, it won't stop. It's the card, not sure what, but it's just a bad card.
My new one is working fine, so far.

just had a 32gb sandisk ultra micro sd die in sg4

Bought this ultra micro sd class 10 sandisk about a year ago. Had it in my htc amaze until may 1st when I got the s4. Today my sd dissappeard. I ejected and inserted multiple times but the phone wont even acknowledge it has a sd card in it. Bought a new identical sd card and it was recognized right away..
plugged bad sd into computer and the computer didnt acknowledge having it plugged in until the 5th time I tried.
was able to copy all my files thank god. 24gigs of work and info almost lost..
anyone else think the sg4 did this some how or could it just be a rotten sandisk micro sd?
input greatly appreciated.
SanDisk had issues with the 32/64GB MicroSD's; im on 64GB number 3 right now, which has worked fine for about a month (the first two would randomly dismount usually once a day on my Atrix 4G and also stop responding on my PC randomly), this one does not. Try getting it replaced or getting a different brand. Normally SanDisk is pretty rock solid (i use sandisks exclusively at work as they are the only certified cards for the recorders i use, and the only brand ive never had problems with. i use mostly CF and also sometimes SD/MicroSD)
Honestly i think the MicroSD thing is all SanDisk related; specifically to 32GB and 64GB Class 10's (the gray/red units). The older 32GB Class 4 black MicroSD's dont have issues.
Crazy update. 2nd 32gb ultra micro sd un mounts and mounts every 9 seconds. Or if you tap the card or shake/move phone slightly it un mounts and re mounts.. I put in a 1gb sandisk black class 4 micro sd and shook and tapped phone over micro sd and it did not unmount at all stood in fine.
this is terrible quality on sandisks behalf. I dont even know if I have receipt for them. I bought both at bestbuy tho...

I bought a SanDisk 64GB microSD card at BestBuy. So far so good works like a charm...*knocking on wood*. I had a 32GB Lexor that I used in my Sensation 4G and it died on me after about 2 years. Was not able to recover the data either. I did backup the data every 2 - 3 months, but still lost a lot of data. :crying: With the S4 I'll probably end up backing up data about every 2 weeks just to be safe. The free 50GB from Dropbox came at the right time.
I bought a samsung 64gb since i read a bunch of reviews that said the Sandisk 64gb would randomly lose all the data on the card and the card would just die. Some said a week after getting it, others said months. I didn't want to risk losing all my pics and stuff

Glad I'm not the only one having issues. I bought a 32GB card and had a bunch of issues with it. It would unmount randomly and the gallery was always slow to load up the contents. I bought a 16GB one and it's been fine. Very fast to load, no issues. I ran an hour long SD card test on it Saturday and it passed with no issues and decided to try it again and so far it's been perfectly fine.. Weird.
i had the same issue with my S3 and my SD card it would just become unreadable out of no where..
if your stock then the only reason i can come up with is nolonger valid
I think i'm going to start utilizing these instant sync apps (G+, Dropbox) just out of fear of losing pictures
There are already multiple threads on this. if you get a damage sdcard warning, plug the card into a PC, open cmd & type chkdsk /r /f <drive_letter>. it will take time to fix your sdcard. Backup your data & reformat if you wish. I get this occassional but with chkdsk I'm have no worry since I can repair & already have backup in place.
With that all said, it is disappointing to have to go through this. What I noticed so far is that it's only happening on my exFAT & FAT32 formatted 64gb sdcard for me. I never had this kind of issue on my 32gb sdcard.
I think this might work
I've been having issues with my 64gb sandisk ( unexpectedly removed error ) & remounting or formatting has not done the trick until now. Formatted card to fat32 with my PC which I have done multiple times & still had issues, but now after a fresh format to fat32 using my PC I decided to format with OUDHs recovery under mounts and storage - format extsd & have absolutely no issues as of yet. No more errors finally. Lmk if it works for you guys.
Thats weird. I've had the same problem with my 32gb sd card i thought it was just the sd card but it seems like a lot of other people are experiencing this as well...

[Q] Dead SD card..... Again!

OK... I lost hope in any sandisk 32gb sdcard.... Just lost hope.
Something like 4 months ago, I got a brand new sandisk 32gb sdcard to use with my note2
Filled It over 16gb... BAM!!!....a dead SD card
Got it replaced with another one "also sandisk 32" and i tried filling it to test it, had 11 GB free "19gb used" and downloaded an APK file, when I was opening it, it said "file not supported" or something like that.
So I went to my files wondering why an apk isnt associated by downloads app, and I open it finding no extSdcard anymore.
Storage in settings says insert SD card, tried it in an s2 and it said empty SD card.
So please guys give me a solution. Cuz my whole life is in it. Thanks guys.
Got samsung 32gb card after similar fiasco with SanDisk.... no problems with the Sammy card
scribbled from my note 2 (N7100)
I was on my second Sandisk 32gb for 1 week when it also gave up the Ghost.
Ended up getting a full refund and putting that towards a Samsung 64gb.
Sammy is full to the brim of MP3's and has not missed a beat.
I think Note 2 Owners should give Sandisk Cards a Miss.
I have use a Samsung 8Gb SD Card with swap and 2nd partion for 1 year and never have a problem. You should try changing the brand, the Note II overheating issue is clearly a problem when using SD Card. The best thing you could do is be careful

Thanks guys for your replys, i really appreciate it.
my device detects it but says "empty sd card" when i format the device just goes to boot animation and starts over (atleast thats in paranoid rom, will try on sammy)
It's just that its got on my nerves, i got a refund from the first card, and i think its really a waste of time to get a second refund and a third card.
16gb (10 usable) is not enough for my use "u could call me a pig when it comes to storage " and this whole sd card thing is really pissing me off.
i use 2 roms "thanks to devil kernel" and its really hard to maintain space considering that u have to install apps on both. and when i put the sd in a card reader and want to format it, it gives me "30mb" as the disk size. i just wish 2 know whats the cause... is it sammy rom?
thanks guys anyways
Perhaps you have some partitions messed up. And the dual rom/kernel thing probably isn't setting up either storage correctly. And I think you're addicted to android. It is affecting other hardware in your life. Lol.

[Q] Micro Sd(s) not compatible with?!

So as a new android user (switching from apple) i realize how much i've been missing out on the beauty of Android devices. So that being said i am so happy to be here and posting about this new friggin device!
SO heres the problem that i realize: Most micro SD card does not work with this new device!! I've tried installing it in the note 10.1 and realize that in the end it cant read. However, if i put it in my s4, it does read and store data. So i emailed samsung personally and they basically said, "as of right now, there arent any micro sd card that is compatible with the note 10.1 2014. Can anyone confirm this? Has anyone used a micro sd card with their device yet? If so what brand? I have a kingston.
I am using 32gb Kingston with no issues. If it is recognized by your phone, try formatting it inside the phone then put it in the tablet. Most likely the card is not formatted properly.

Yeah it's most likely this.

Plenty of help on the web if you are unsure of what your doing.
Good luck!
i tried a brand new PNY 64GB formatted to exFAT. it worked fine until it die- two friggin days!
now i'm using my back up 64GB sandisk. it's working fine so far, exFat too. had one incident that made me think that this may be a dud too, or that the 2014 may be killing my disks. i'll have to keep an eye out.
There are way too many reports of this for there not to be a problem! I myself had a card that worked great in my old Note 10.1 and my cell phone but had to be formatted for the 2014 edition. Why? No reason other than something just ain't right somewhere!

That's what I'm using too, though Kingston makes good memory, and I've had good luck with other companies as well, like Patriot and Trend Micro.

Have not seen way too many reports of this problem with this particular device. The problems lie in the the memory cards not the device. Flash memory is notorious for just flat out dying or not working in certain devices. Sandisk or Samsung are the top choices for broad compatibility, hence the fact that their prices are usually higher. Probably due to more R&D and testing. I just swapped my 64gb Sandisk for the Kingston 32gb with no issues. I had the 64gb in an Acer W3-810 Windows Tablet.

My bad. There is only this thread and another thread on the next page. It is kinda suspicious that my 64GB card as well as others here works fine in my other tablet and phone but just won't work in my new 2014. Call it what you want but to me that's a lack of plug and play!
For everyone without any issues of course we are just making a mountain out of a molehill but for us FEW sitting here with a 64gb micro card that won't work consistently this is a fail!
So yes I surrendered and picked up a 32gb card and it works flawlessly.
i have a 16GB patriot Class 4 that i pulled out of my Nook Color (and formatted on my computer) i have had no issues using this.
one thing i did notice, is that the sd slot in the galaxy note 10.1 is pretty deep, i cant get the card in without assistance, usually from a pen or key that happens to be nearby.

My bad. There is only this thread and another thread on the next page. It is kinda suspicious that my 64GB card as well as others here works fine in my other tablet and phone but just won't work in my new 2014. Call it what you want but to me that's a lack of plug and play!
For everyone without any issues of course we are just making a mountain out of a molehill but for us FEW sitting here with a 64gb micro card that won't work consistently this is a fail!
So yes I surrendered and picked up a 32gb card and it works flawlessly.

Do not make this in to something personal. Please read what I typed. I was not trying to deny there is a problem but let people know where the problem comes from. One android device works with a card but it will not work with another. It is more than likely the card. You made it sound like it is Samsung's fault. They cannot test every card with every device ever made. People should be asking for help from their card manufacturer. My original 64gb died right out of the box and Sandisk replaced it.
I'm sorry if this came across as personal. I apologize for that. We just disagree and that's fine. You think it is the card even though it works great in 3 other devices, my laptop with the insert, my phone, and my old Note 10.1 and I think it's the 2014 edition because it doesn't work in it. To me if it was the card it would give me some sort of trouble in the other devices.
But to each his/her own.
Maybe its how the card is formatted?

I may be mistaken but I believe I have mentioned that I formatted the card while using the Note 2014. I also formatted it on my PC. It's no biggie anymore since I have a 32 gb installed that works great. I'm just going to wait till another update and try it again. I believe it's going to work at some point.

So as a new android user (switching from apple) i realize how much i've been missing out on the beauty of Android devices. So that being said i am so happy to be here and posting about this new friggin device!
SO heres the problem that i realize: Most micro SD card does not work with this new device!! I've tried installing it in the note 10.1 and realize that in the end it cant read. However, if i put it in my s4, it does read and store data. So i emailed samsung personally and they basically said, "as of right now, there arent any micro sd card that is compatible with the note 10.1 2014. Can anyone confirm this? Has anyone used a micro sd card with their device yet? If so what brand? I have a kingston.

32gb class 10 Samsung micro sd card works perfectly in my Note 10.1 2014, TAB3 8.0, GS4 & GS3
I'm having intermittent failures with my card also. I took my 32 gb Lexar out of my Transformer Prime and it wasn't recognized by the Note. I formatted it, it was fine for a few days, now it's telling me that the card is blank and/or unreadable. I formatted it again using the SD Formatter. I'm adding music to the card now and I'll be keeping an eye on it. I'll buy a Sandisk if this continues. I'm not at a risk of losing data, so I can experiment a little.
Don't cheap out on crappy low end cards, and you *should be fine. I have a combination of 6 Samsung phones & tablets all using one of the two cards listed below. Have never had a single issue, and a few of the devices have been using the same card for well over a year.
SanDisk SDSDQUA-064G-U46A Ultra 64 GB microSDXC (UHS-1) Class 10
Samsung Electronics 32GB microSDHC Extreme Speed (UHS-1) Class 10
The 64GB Sandisk Ultra is currently formatted ExFAT, and has been working just fine for almost 2 weeks now in my Note 10.1 (2014 ed).
* There is always a chance with failure, as with any electronic component, but good storage cards are worth their price.

Kingston, Transcend, Lexar, AData, G.Skill and Patriot are all good brands as well.
Same issue as above posters, I have a SanDisk ultra 64gb. After mucking around trying to get the same card that worked perfectly in my original. 10.1.
Solution : I backed the card contents up on my pc and then formatted the card in the original 10.1 before checking that I could write a new directory on the card using the 2014 edition.
Seems to work so far, hope this helps you guys (who still have the original 10.1 as well).
I have a 64GB Patriot class 10, No issues. Thought I would chime in.

Anyone try the Samsung 64GB micro SDXC? I can only guess all Samsung Micro SD's will work fine.
